< 2 Mojžišova 8 >
1 I mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi: Vejdi k Faraonovi a rci jemu: Takto praví Hospodin: Propusť lid můj, ať mi slouží.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back to the king and tell him, ‘Yahweh says that you must let my people go, in order that they can worship me [in the desert].
2 Pakli nebudeš chtíti propustiti, aj, já raním všecky krajiny tvé žabami.
But if you refuse to let them go, I will punish you by sending frogs to cover your country.
3 A vydá řeka množství žab, kteréž vystoupí a polezou do domu tvého a do pokoje, v němž líháš, a na ložce tvé, a do domů služebníků tvých i lidu tvého, a do pecí tvých a do těsta tvého.
[Not only] will the Nile [River] be full of frogs, [but] the frogs will come up [out of the river] into your palace. They will come into your bedroom and onto your bed. They will be in the houses of your officials and all [the rest of] your people. They will even get into your ovens and your pans for mixing the materials for baking bread.
4 I na tebe a na lid tvůj, i na všecky služebníky tvé polezou žáby.
The frogs will jump up on you and your officials and [all the rest of] your people.’”
5 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Rci Aronovi: Vztáhni ruku svou s holí svou na řeky, na potoky a na jezera, a vyveď žáby na zemi Egyptskou.
Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Say this to Aaron: ‘Hold your stick in your hand and stretch it out [as though you were stretching it] over the river, the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up [from all this water and] cover the land of Egypt.’”
6 I vztáhl Aron ruku svou na vody Egyptské; a vystoupily žáby a přikryly zemi Egyptskou.
[After Moses/I told that to] Aaron, he stretched out his hand [as though he were stretching it] over all the water in Egypt. And the frogs came up [from the water and] covered Egypt.
7 A učinili tolikéž čarodějníci skrze své čáry; a udělali, že vyšly žáby na zemi Egyptskou.
But the men who performed magic did the same thing, and they caused [more] frogs to come up [from the water onto the land].
8 Tedy Farao povolav Mojžíše a Arona, řekl: Modlte se Hospodinu, ať odejme žáby ode mne a od lidu mého; a propustím ten lid, aby obětovali Hospodinu.
Then the king summoned Moses/me and said, “Ask Yahweh to take away these frogs from me and my people. After that happens, I will allow your people to go, in order that they can offer sacrifices to Yahweh.”
9 I řekl Mojžíš Faraonovi: Poctím tě tím, a pověz, kdy bych se měl modliti za tě a za služebníky tvé, a za lid tvůj, aby vypléněny byly žáby od tebe, i z domů tvých; toliko v řece zůstanou.
Moses/I said to the king, “I will be glad to pray for you and for your officials and for [the rest of] your people. [I will ask Yahweh] to get rid of the frogs from all your houses. The only frogs left will be [those] in the Nile [River]. Just tell me when I should pray.”
10 Kterýžto odpověděl: Zítra. A Mojžíš řekl: Podlé slova tvého nechť jest, abys věděl, že žádného takového není, jako Hospodin Bůh náš.
He replied, “Tomorrow.” So Moses/I said, “[I will do] what you say, and then you will know that Yahweh God, the one we [worship, is the only true god], and that there is no other god like him.
11 I odejdou žáby od tebe a od domů tvých, i od služebníků tvých a od lidu tvého; toliko v řece zůstanou.
The frogs will leave you and your officials and all [the rest of] your people. The only ones left will be in the Nile [River].”
12 Tedy vyšel Mojžíš s Aronem od Faraona. I volal Mojžíš k Hospodinu, aby odjaty byly žáby, kteréž byl dopustil na Faraona.
Aaron and Moses/I left the king. Then Moses/I prayed to Yahweh, [asking him to take away] all the frogs he had [brought to the king’s land].
13 I učinil Hospodin podlé slova Mojžíšova; a vymřely žáby z domů, ze vsí i z polí.
And Yahweh did just what Moses/I [asked him to do]. As a result, all the frogs in the houses, in their courtyards, and in the fields died.
14 I shrnuli je na hromady; a nasmradila se země.
The people gathered together all the dead frogs into big piles, and the land stank [from the smell].
15 Vida pak Farao, že by dáno bylo oddechnutí, více zatvrdil se v srdci svém, a neuposlechl jich, jakož byl mluvil Hospodin.
But when the king saw that [the problem] was ended, he became stubborn [IDM] [again]. And just as Yahweh had predicted, he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/we told him.
16 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Rci k Aronovi: Vztáhni hůl svou, a udeř v prach země, aby obrátil se v stěnice na vší zemi Egyptské.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell Aaron to strike the ground with his stick. [When he does that], all the fine particles of ground/dust will become gnats, all over the land of Egypt.”
17 Kteříž učinili tak. Nebo vztáhl Aron ruku svou s holí svou, a udeřil prach země. I byly stěnice na lidech i hovadech; všecken prach země obrátil se v stěnice ve vší zemi Egyptské.
So they/we did that. Aaron struck the ground with his stick, and all over Egypt, the fine particles of ground/dirt became gnats. The gnats covered the people and all [their] animals.
18 Dělali také tak čarodějníci skrze čáry své, aby vyvedli stěnice, ale nemohli. A byly stěnice na lidech i hovadech.
The men who worked magic tried to cause gnats to appear, but they were unable to do it. So the gnats [stayed] on the Egyptian people and on their animals.
19 Tedy řekli čarodějníci Faraonovi: Prst Boží toto jest. A posililo se srdce Faraonovo, aniž poslechl jich, jakož mluvil Hospodin.
The men who worked magic said to the king, “It is God who has done this with his power [MTY]!” But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to us, just as Yahweh had predicted.
20 Řekl pak Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Vstaň ráno a stůj před Faraonem. Hle vyjde k vodě, a díš k němu: Takto praví Hospodin: Propusť lid můj, ať mi slouží.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Get up early [tomorrow] morning. [Go down] to the river and wait for the king. [When he comes to bathe] [MTY], say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh says to you: “Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert].
21 Pakli nepropustíš lidu mého, hle, já pošli na tě a na služebníky tvé, a na lid tvůj, a na domy tvé směsici všelikých škodlivých žížal; a naplněni budou domové Egyptští těmi žížalami, nad to i země ta, na níž oni jsou.
[I warn you that] if you do not let my people go, I will send swarms of flies to you. They will come down on you and on your officials and on [the rest of] your people. The houses of all you Egyptians will be full of flies. They will [even] cover the ground.
22 A oddělím v ten den zemi Gesen, v níž lid můj zůstává, aby tam nebylo směsice té; abys věděl, že jsem já Hospodin u prostřed země.
But when that happens, I will treat the Goshen region, where my people live, differently. There will be no swarms of flies there. In that way, you will know that I, Yahweh, am doing these things [here] in this land.
23 A vysvobozením rozdíl učiním mezi lidem svým a lidem tvým. Zítra bude znamení toto.
I will distinguish clearly between [how I act toward] my people and [how I act toward] your people. And this plague is going to happen tomorrow!”’”
24 I učinil Hospodin tak. Nebo přišla těžká směsice škodlivých žížal na dům Faraonův, a do domů služebníků jeho i na všecku zemi Egyptskou; a nakazila se země od té směsice.
[Early the next morning, Moses/I told that to the king, but the king would not pay any attention]. So Yahweh did what he said he would do. He sent great swarms of flies into the palace of the king and into the houses of his officials. The whole country of Egypt was ruined by the flies.
25 Povolal pak Farao Mojžíše a Arona, a řekl: Jděte, obětujte Bohu svému tu v zemi.
Then the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You Israeli people can go and offer sacrifices to your god, [but you must do it] here in [this] land.”
26 I řekl Mojžíš: Nenáleží nám tak činiti; nebo ohavnost Egyptských obětovali bychom Hospodinu Bohu našemu. A jestliže bychom obětovali to, což jest ohavnost před očima Egyptských, zdaž by nás neukamenovali?
But Moses/I replied, “It would not be right [for us] to do that, because we will be offering sacrifices that are very offensive to the Egyptian people. If we offer sacrifices that the Egyptian people think are disgusting, they will kill us by throwing stones at us [RHQ]!
27 Cestou tří dnů půjdeme na poušť, a obětovati budeme Hospodinu Bohu našemu, jakž nám rozkázal.
No, we need to travel for three days into the desert. There we will offer sacrifices to Yahweh, the God we worship, just as he commands (OR, has commanded) us.”
28 I řekl Farao: Já propustím vás, abyste obětovali Hospodinu Bohu svému na poušti, však dále abyste nikoli neodcházeli. Modltež se za mne.
So the king said, “I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, your god, in the desert. But you must not go very far. [Now] pray for me!”
29 Odpověděl Mojžíš: Aj, já vycházím od tebe, a modliti se budu Hospodinu, aby odešla ta směsice od tebe, od služebníků tvých i od lidu tvého zítra; avšak ať Farao více nezklamává, nepropouštěje lidu, aby obětovali Hospodinu.
Moses/I said, “Listen [to me]! After I leave you, I will pray to Yahweh, [asking] that tomorrow [he will cause] the swarms of flies to leave you and your officials and [the rest of] your people. But do not deceive us again by refusing to let our people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh!”
30 A vyšed Mojžíš od Faraona, modlil se Hospodinu.
Then Moses/I left the king and prayed to Yahweh.
31 I učinil Hospodin podlé slova Mojžíšova, a odjal tu směsici od Faraona, od služebníků jeho i od lidu jeho, tak že ani jedné žížaly nezůstalo.
And Yahweh did what Moses/I asked, and he got rid of the swarms of flies from [around] the king and his officials and [the rest of] his people. No flies remained.
32 Ale Farao ztížil srdce své také i tehdáž, a nepropustil lidu.
But the king was stubborn [IDM] this time also, and he did not allow the Israeli people to go.
