Izlazak 8
1 opet Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Pođi k faraonu i reci mu: 'Ovako govori Jahve: Pusti moj narod da ode i štovanje mi iskaže.
And the LORD spoke to Moses, Go to Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Ako odbiješ da ih pustiš, svu ću ti zemlju kazniti žabama.
And if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your borders with frogs:
3 Rijeka će vrvjeti žabama. One će izići i prodrijeti u tvoj dvor, u ložnicu, u tvoju postelju, u kuće tvojih službenika i tvoga naroda, pod sačeve i naćve tvoje.
And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedchamber, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs:
4 Po tebi, po tvome narodu i svim tvojim službenicima skakat će žabe.'”
And the frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.
5 Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Reci Aronu neka ispruži svoju ruku sa štapom povrh rijeka, prokopa i jezeraca i učini da žabe navale na egipatsku zemlju.”
And the LORD spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.
6 Aron pruži svoju ruku povrh egipatskih voda, i žabe iziđoše i prekriše zemlju egipatsku.
And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ali i vračari učiniše tako svojim vračanjem, te žabe navališe na egipatsku zemlju.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Zovne sad faraon Mojsija i Arona i rekne: “Molite Jahvu da ukloni žabe od mene i moga puka, a ja ću pustiti narod da prinese žrtvu Jahvi.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice to the LORD.
9 Mojsije uzvrati faraonu: “Dostoj se odrediti mi kad hoćeš da molim za te, za tvoje službenike i za tvoj narod da se žabe odstrane od tebe i tvojih domova i ostanu samo u Rijeci.”
And Moses said to Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I entreat for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, that they may remain in the river only?
10 “Sutra”, reče. “Neka bude kako kažeš”, odvrati Mojsije, “da znaš kako nitko nije kao Jahve, Bog naš.
And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to your word: that you may know that there is none like to the LORD our God.
11 Žabe će otići od tebe, od tvojih službenika i tvoga naroda; ostat će samo u Rijeci.”
And the frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people; they shall remain in the river only.
12 Mojsije i Aron odu od faraona, a onda Mojsije zazva Jahvu zbog žaba kojima je kaznio faraona.
And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried to the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.
13 I Jahve usliša Mojsija, te žabe pocrkaju po kućama, dvorištima i njivama.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
14 Na hrpe su ih zgrtali, zemlja se njima usmrdjela.
And they gathered them together on heaps: and the land stank.
15 Kad je faraon vidio da je nastupilo olakšanje, srce mu otvrdnu te ne posluša Mojsija i Arona, kako je Jahve i kazao.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and listened not to them; as the LORD had said.
16 Onda će opet Jahve Mojsiju: “Reci Aronu neka zamahne svojim štapom i udari po prahu na tlu neka se pretvori u komarce po svoj zemlji egipatskoj.”
And the LORD said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch out your rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
17 I učine tako: zamahne Aron rukom i štapom te udari po prahu na tlu. Komarci navale na ljude i životinje. Sav prah na tlu pretvori se u komarce po svoj zemlji egipatskoj.
And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Vračari pokušaše da svojim vračanjem stvore komarce, ali nisu mogli. Ljudi i životinje postanu plijenom komaraca.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice on man, and on beast.
19 Tada vračari reknu faraonu: “To je prst Božji!” Ali je faraonovo srce bilo okorjelo, pa nije poslušao Mojsija i Arona, kako je Jahve i kazao.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he listened not to them; as the LORD had said.
20 Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Podrani ujutro, iziđi pred faraona kad krene k vodi, i reci mu: 'Ovako poručuje Jahve: Pusti moj narod da ode i da mi štovanje iskaže.
And the LORD said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; see, he comes forth to the water; and say to him, Thus says the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Ako ne pustiš moga naroda, pripustit ću obade na te, na tvoje službenike, na tvoj puk i tvoje domove. Egipatski domovi i samo tlo na kojem stoje vrvjet će od obada.
Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground where on they are.
22 Ali ću toga dana izuzeti gošenski kraj, u kojem živi moj narod, te se ondje obadi neće pojaviti, tako da znaš da sam ja Jahve u središtu zemlje.
And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end you may know that I am the LORD in the middle of the earth.
23 Tu ću razliku napraviti između svoga i tvoga naroda. To će znamenje biti sutra.'”
And I will put a division between my people and your people: to morrow shall this sign be.
24 I učini Jahve tako. Rojevi obada nalete u faraonov dvor, na domove njegovih službenika i po svoj zemlji egipatskoj. Zemlja nastrada od obada.
And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.
25 Sad faraon pozove Mojsija i Arona pa im rekne: “Idite, prinesite žrtvu svome Bogu, ali u ovoj zemlji.”
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go you, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26 “Ne dolikuje da tako učinimo”, odgovori Mojsije. “Žrtve koje mi prinosimo Jahvi, Bogu svome, za Egipćane su svetogrđe. Kad bismo, dakle, na njihove oči prinosili žrtve koje su Egipćanima svetogrdne, zar nas ne bi kamenovali?
And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: see, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 Zato moramo u pustinju tri dana hoda te prinijeti žrtvu Jahvi, Bogu svome, kako nam je zapovjedio.”
We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.
28 “Pustit ću vas da odete u pustinju”, odgovori faraon, “i prinesete žrtvu Jahvi, svome Bogu, ali ne odlazite predaleko. Molite za me!”
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away: entreat for me.
29 Nato odvrati Mojsije: “Čim odem od tebe, zazvat ću Jahvu da sutra nestane obada s faraona, njegovih službenika i njegova puka. Ali neka faraon više ne vara! Neka pusti narod da ide i prinese žrtvu Jahvi.”
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from you, and I will entreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
30 Tako Mojsije ode od faraona i pomoli se Jahvi.
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.
31 I Jahve učini kako je Mojsije tražio: s faraona, s njegovih službenika i s njegova puka nestane obada - ni jedan jedini nije ostao.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 Ali opet ukruti faraon srce svoje i ne dopusti narodu da ode.
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
