Izlazak 13
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Meni posvetite svakoga prvorođenca! Prvenci materina krila kod Izraelaca, i od ljudi i od životinja, meni pripadaju!”
Sanctify to me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the sons of Israel. Both of man and of beast, it is mine.
3 A onda Mojsije reče narodu: “Sjećajte se ovoga dana u koji ste izbavljeni iz Egipta, iz kuće ropstva, jer vas Jahve izbavi odande svojom jakom mišicom. Ukvasani kruh neka se ne jede!
And Moses said to the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage, for by strength of hand Jehovah brought you out from this place. There shall no leavened bread be eaten.
4 Ovoga dana mjeseca Abiba vaše je izbavljenje.
This day ye go forth in the month Abib.
5 Stoga: kad te Jahve uvede u zemlju Kanaanaca, Hetita, Amorejaca, Hivijaca i Jebusejaca, za koju se zakleo tvojim precima da će ti je dati - zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko - ovoga mjeseca obavi ovakav obred:
And it shall be, when Jehovah shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shall keep this service in this month.
6 sedam dana jedi nekvasan kruh, a sedmoga dana neka se slavi svetkovina u čast Jahvi.
Seven days thou shall eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to Jehovah.
7 Sedam dana neka se jede nekvasan kruh; ukvasanog kruha neka ne bude kod tebe; i neka se nigdje ne vidi kvasac na tvome području.
Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days, and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy borders.
8 Svome sinu toga dana objasni: to je za ono što mi je Jahve učinio kad sam se iz Egipta izbavio.
And thou shall tell thy son in that day, saying, It is because of that which Jehovah did for me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 Neka ti bude kao znak na tvojoj ruci i kao opomena na tvome čelu: da Jahvin zakon bude uvijek na tvojim ustima. Jer te rukom jakom Jahve izbavio iz Egipta.
And it shall be for a sign to thee upon thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the law of Jehovah may be in thy mouth, for with a strong hand has Jehovah brought thee out of Egypt.
10 Ovaj propis vršite svake godine u određeno vrijeme.”
Thou shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.
11 “A kada te Jahve dovede u zemlju Kanaanaca - kako vam se zakle, tebi i tvojim ocima - i kada ti je preda,
And it shall be, when Jehovah shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, as he swore to thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it to thee,
12 ustupajte Jahvi prvorođence materinjega krila, a tako i sve prvine što ih tvoja stoka dade - svako muško pripada Jahvi!
that thou shall set apart to Jehovah all that opens the womb. And every firstling which thou have that comes of a beast, the males shall be Jehovah's.
13 Svaku prvinu magaradi otkupi janjetom ili jaretom. Ako je ne otkupiš, slomi joj vrat. A svakoga prvorođenca između svoje djece otkupi.
And every firstling of a donkey thou shall redeem with a lamb, and if thou will not redeem it, then thou shall break its neck. And all the firstborn of man among thy sons thou shall redeem.
14 Kad te sin tvoj sutra zapita: Što znači to? - odgovori mu: Rukom jakom izvede nas Jahve iz Egipta, iz kuće ropstva.
And it shall be, when thy son asks thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shall say to him, By strength of hand Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage.
15 Kako je faraon postao tvrdokoran pa nas nije htio pustiti, Jahve je poubijao sve prvorođence u zemlji egipatskoj: prvorođence ljudi i prvine stoke. Eto zato Jahvi žrtvujem svaku mušku prvinu materinjega krila, a svakoga prvorođenca od svojih sinova otkupljujem.
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that Jehovah slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of beast. Therefore I sacrifice to Jehovah all that opens the womb, being males, but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.
16 Neka ti to bude kao znak na tvojoj ruci i kao znamenje posred čela da nas je rukom jakom Jahve izbavio iz Egipta.”
And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for by strength of hand Jehovah brought us forth out of Egypt.
17 Kad je faraon dopustio da narod ode, Bog ih nije poveo prema filistejskoj zemlji, iako je onuda bilo najbliže. Bog je, naime, rekao: “Mogao bi se narod predomisliti i vratiti u Egipat kad vidi ratovanje.”
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near. For God said, Lest perhaps the people regret when they see war, and they return to Egypt.
18 Stoga Bog povede narod zaobilaznim putem, kroz pustinju prema Crvenome moru. Izraelci su napustili zemlju egipatsku naoružani od glave do pete.
But God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness by the Red Sea. And the sons of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 Mojsije ponese sa sobom Josipove kosti. Jer Josip bijaše zakleo Izraelce riječima: “Bog će se zacijelo za vas zauzeti. Tada i moje kosti odavde ponesite sa sobom!”
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had strictly sworn the sons of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones away from here with you.
20 Krenuvši iz Sukota, utabore se u Etamu, na kraju pustinje.
And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
21 Jahve je išao pred njima, danju u stupu od oblaka da im put pokazuje, a noću u stupu od ognja da im svijetli. Tako su mogli putovati i danju i noću.
And Jehovah went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, that they might go by day and by night.
22 I nije ispred naroda nestajao stup od oblaka danju ni stup od ognja noću.
The pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night departed not from before the people.
