2 Mojžišova 4
1 Odpověděl pak Mojžíš, a řekl: Aj, neuvěří mi, ani uposlechnou hlasu mého; nebo řeknou: Neukázalť se tobě Hospodin.
Moses/I replied, “But what if [the Israeli people] (do not believe me/are not convinced) or not do what I tell them? What if they say, ‘Yahweh did not appear to you!’”
2 Tedy řekl jemu Hospodin: Co jest to v ruce tvé? Odpověděl: Hůl.
Yahweh said to him/me, “[Look at] that thing you are holding in your hand. What is it?” He/I replied, “A (walking stick/shepherd’s stick).”
3 I řekl: Vrz ji na zem. I povrhl ji na zem, a obrácena jest v hada; a utíkal Mojžíš před ním.
He said, “Throw it down on the ground!” So, he/I threw it on the ground, and it became a snake! And he/I ran/jumped away from it.
4 Tedy řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Vztáhni ruku svou, a chyť ho za ocas. Kterýžto vztáh ruku svou, chytil jej, a obrácen jest v hůl v rukou jeho.
But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Reach down and pick it up by its tail!” So he/I reached down and caught it, and [when he/I picked it up], it became a stick in his/my hand [again.]
5 Aby věřili, že se ukázal tobě Hospodin, Bůh otců jejich, Bůh Abrahamův, Bůh Izákův a Bůh Jákobův.
Yahweh said, “[Do the same thing in front of the Israeli people], in order that they may believe that [I], Yahweh God, the one Abraham and Isaac and Jacob worshiped, truly appeared to you.”
6 Potom zase řekl jemu Hospodin: Vlož nyní ruku svou za ňadra svá. I vložil ruku svou za ňadra svá; a vyňal ji, a aj, ruka jeho byla malomocná, bílá jako sníh.
Yahweh spoke to Moses/me again, saying “Put your hand inside your robe [MTY]!” He/I did that. And when he/I took it out again, [surprisingly], his/my hand was white. It had a skin disease [that made it] as white as snow.
7 Řekl opět: Vlož ruku svou zase v ňadra svá. Kterýž vložil ruku svou zase v ňadra svá; a vyňal ji z ňader svých, a aj, učiněna jest zase jako jiné tělo jeho.
Then God said, “Put your hand back inside your robe [MTY]!” So he/I did that, and when he/I took it out again, surprisingly, it was normal again, just like the rest of his/my body!
8 I budeť, jestliže neuvěří tobě, a neposlechnou hlasu a znamení prvního, uvěří hlasu a znamení druhému.
God said, “[You can do that in front of the Israeli people, too]. If they do not pay attention to what you say because of [seeing] the first miracle, they will (believe [you/be convinced) when you perform] the second miracle.
9 A pakli neuvěří ani těm dvěma znamením, a neuposlechnou hlasu tvého, tedy nabereš vody z řeky, a vyliješ ji na zem; a promění se vody, kteréž vezmeš z řeky, a obrátí se v krev na zemi.
If they do not believe you or do what you say, even [after you perform] those two miracles, get some water from the Nile [River] and pour it on the ground. [When you do that], the water from the river that you pour on the ground will become blood [MTY] (OR, [red like] blood).”
10 I řekl Mojžíš Hospodinu: Prosím, Pane, nejsem muž výmluvný, aniž prvé, ani jakž jsi mluvil s služebníkem svým; nebo zpozdilých úst a neohbitého jazyku jsem.
Moses/I replied, “O Yahweh! I am not an eloquent [speaker]! I was not an eloquent speaker before, and I have not become one since you started talking to me! I am not a good speaker [MTY], and I speak very slowly.”
11 Jemuž odpověděl Hospodin: Kdo dal ústa člověku? Aneb kdo může učiniti němého, neb hluchého, vidoucího, neb slepého? Zdali ne já Hospodin?
Then Yahweh said to him/me, “[You seem to forget] who it is that makes people able to speak [RHQ]! Who is it that enables people to be unable to speak or unable to hear, or able to see or not to see? It is I, Yahweh [RHQ]!
12 Nyní tedy jdi, a já budu v ústech tvých, a naučím tě, co bys mluviti měl.
So start going [to Egypt], and I will help you to speak [MTY], and I will tell you what you should say.”
13 I řekl: Slyš mne, Pane, pošli, prosím, toho, kteréhož poslati máš.
But he/I replied, “O, Yahweh, I ask you, please send someone else [instead]!”
14 A rozhněvav se velmi Hospodin na Mojžíše, řekl: Zdaliž nemáš Arona bratra svého z pokolení Léví? Vím, že on výmluvný jest; ano aj, sám vyjde v cestu tobě, a vida tebe, radovati se bude v srdci svém.
Then Yahweh became very angry with Moses/me. He said, “[What about] your [older] brother Aaron, who is [also] a descendant of Levi? I know that he is a very good/eloquent speaker. He is actually on his way here [right now], and he will be very happy to see you.
15 Ty mluviti budeš k němu, a vložíš slova v ústa jeho; a já budu v ústech tvých a v ústech jeho, a naučím vás, co byste měli činiti.
You can talk to him and tell him what to say [MTY], and I will help both of you [SYN] to know what to say [MTY]. And I will tell you both what you should do.
16 A on mluviti bude za tebe k lidu; a bude tobě on za ústa, a ty budeš jemu za Boha.
He will speak for you to the [Israeli] people. He will be (your spokesman/as though he was your mouth) [MET], and you will be to him as though you are [his] god.
17 Hůl pak tuto vezmeš v ruku svou, kterouž činiti budeš ta znamení.
[Be sure] to take with you the walking/shepherd’s stick [that is in your hand], because you will perform miracles with it.”
18 Tedy odšed Mojžíš, navrátil se k Jetrovi tchánu svému, a řekl jemu: Nechť jdu nyní, a navrátím se k bratřím svým, kteříž jsou v Egyptě, a pohledím, jsou-li ještě živi. I řekl Jetro Mojžíšovi: Jdi v pokoji.
Moses/I returned to his/my father-in-law Jethro and said to him, “Please let me go back to Egypt, to see my fellow Israelis there. I want to know if they are still alive.” Jethro said to Moses/me, “Go, and may [God give you inner] peace.”
19 Nebo řekl byl Hospodin Mojžíšovi v zemi Madianské: Jdi, navrať se do Egypta; nebo zemřeli jsou všickni muži, kteříž hledali bezživotí tvého.
Yahweh said to Moses/me [before he/I left] Midian, “You can [safely] return to Egypt, because the men who were wanting to kill you [MTY] are [now] dead.”
20 A vzav Mojžíš ženu svou, a syny své, vsadil je na osla, aby se navrátil do země Egyptské; vzal také Mojžíš hůl Boží v ruku svou.
So Moses/I took his/my wife and sons and put them on donkeys, and they/we returned to Egypt. And Moses/I took in his/my hand the stick that God [told him/me to take along].
21 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Když půjdeš a navrátíš se do Egypta, hleď, abys všecky zázraky, kteréž jsem složil v ruce tvé, činil před Faraonem. Jáť pak zatvrdím srdce jeho, aby nepropustil lidu.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “When you return to Egypt, be sure to perform all the miracles that I have given you power [to do], while the king is watching. But I will make him stubborn [IDM], with the result that he will not let the Israeli people leave [Egypt].
22 Protož díš Faraonovi: Toto praví Hospodin: Syn můj, prvorozený můj jest Izrael.
Then say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh says: “The Israeli [people] [MTY] are [as dear to] me as firstborn sons [MET].
23 I řekl jsem tobě: Propusť syna mého, ať slouží mi; a nechtěl jsi ho propustiti. Aj, já zabiji syna tvého, prvorozeného tvého.
I told you to let my people [MTY] leave [Egypt], in order that they may worship me [in the desert]. If you refuse to let them go, I warn you, I will kill your firstborn son!”’”
24 I stalo se, když byl Mojžíš na cestě v hospodě, že se obořil na něj Hospodin, a hledal ho usmrtiti.
[One night], as they were camping on the way [to Egypt], Yahweh appeared to Moses/me. He wanted/threatened to kill Moses/me [for disobeying his command that boys/sons be circumcised].
25 Tedy vzala Zefora nůž ostrý, a obřezala neobřízku syna svého, kteroužto vrhla k nohám jeho, řkuci: Zajisté ženich krví jsi mi.
Then [his/my wife] Zipporah took a flint knife and circumcised her son. Then she touched the boy’s feet (OR, genitals) with the piece of skin [she had cut off], and she said, “The blood [which flowed when I circumcised you] will protect you [from being harmed by Yahweh] [MET].”
26 I nechal ho. Ona pak nazvala ho tehdáž ženichem krví pro obřezání.
She said to him, “You are safe now [MET] because you have been circumcised.” So Yahweh did not harm her son.
27 Řekl také Hospodin Aronovi: Jdi vstříc Mojžíšovi na poušť. I šel a potkal se s ním na hoře Boží, a políbil ho.
Yahweh said to Aaron, “Go into the desert to meet/see Moses!” So he went [there from Egypt] and met him/me at [Sinai], the mountain dedicated to God, and [greeted him/me by] kissing him/me [on the cheek].
28 A vypravoval Mojžíš Aronovi všecka slova Hospodinova, kterýž ho poslal, i o všech znameních, kteráž přikázal jemu.
Moses/I told Aaron everything that Yahweh had said to him/me when he told him/me to return to Egypt. He/I also told Aaron about all the miracles that Yahweh told him/me to perform.
29 Tedy šel Mojžíš s Aronem, a shromáždili všecky starší synů Izraelských.
[So Aaron and Moses/I] returned [to Egypt]. There they/we gathered together all the Israeli elders/leaders.
30 I mluvil Aron všecka slova, kteráž byl mluvil Hospodin k Mojžíšovi, a činil znamení před očima lidu.
Aaron told them everything that Yahweh had told Moses/me, and Aaron performed [all] the miracles as the people watched.
31 A uvěřil lid, když uslyšeli, že navštívil Hospodin syny Izraelské, a že viděl ssoužení jejich. A sklonivše se, poklonu učinili.
They believed [that what they/we were saying was true]. When they heard that Yahweh had seen how the Israeli people were being cruelly oppressed and that he was going to help them, they bowed down and worshiped [Yahweh].
