Exodus 11
1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “I will bring upon Pharaoh and Egypt one more plague. After that, he will allow you to leave this place. And when he lets you go, he will drive you out completely.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Še eno nadlogo več bom privedel nad faraona in nad Egipt, potem vam bo pustil oditi. Ko vam bo pustil oditi, vas bo zagotovo vse skupaj sunil od tod.
2 Now announce to the people that men and women alike should ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold.”
Govori torej v ušesa ljudstvu in naj si vsak mož izposodi od svojega soseda in vsaka ženska od svoje sosede dragocenosti iz srebra in dragocenosti iz zlata.«
3 And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, Moses himself was highly regarded in Egypt by Pharaoh’s officials and by the people.
Gospod je dal ljudstvu naklonjenost v očeh Egipčanov. Poleg tega je bil človek Mojzes zelo velik v egiptovski deželi, v očeh faraonovih služabnikov in v očeh ljudstva.
4 So Moses declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go throughout Egypt,
Mojzes je rekel: »Tako govori Gospod: ›Okoli polnoči bom odšel ven, v sredo Egipta.
5 and every firstborn son in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the servant girl behind the hand mill, as well as the firstborn of all the cattle.
Vsi prvorojenci v egiptovski deželi bodo umrli, od faraonovega prvorojenca, ki sedi na njegovem prestolu, celo do prvorojenca dekle, ki je za mlinom in vse prvorojeno od živali.
6 Then a great cry will go out over all the land of Egypt. Such an outcry has never been heard before and will never be heard again.
Veliko vpitje bo po vsej egiptovski deželi, kot takšnega tam ni bilo niti ne bo več podobnega temu.
7 But among all the Israelites, not even a dog will snarl at man or beast.’ Then you will know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.
Toda zoper kateregakoli izmed Izraelovih otrok niti pes ne bo premaknil svojega jezika, zoper človeka ali žival, da boste lahko vedeli, kako Gospod postavlja razliko med Egipčani in Izraelom.‹
8 And all these officials of yours will come and bow before me, saying, ‘Go, you and all the people who follow you!’ After that, I will depart.” And hot with anger, Moses left Pharaoh’s presence.
Vsi ti tvoji služabniki bodo prišli dol k meni in se mi priklonili, rekoč: ›Pojdi ven ti in vse ljudstvo, ki ti sledi.‹ In potem bom šel ven.« In od faraona je odšel v veliki jezi.
9 The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Faraon vama ne bo prisluhnil, da bodo moji čudeži lahko pomnoženi v egiptovski deželi.«
10 Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart so that he would not let the Israelites go out of his land.
Mojzes in Aron sta vse te čudeže storila pred faraonom, Gospod pa je zakrknil faraonovo srce, tako da ta ne bi pustil Izraelovih otrok oditi ven iz svoje dežele.
