Exodus 19
1 In the third month, on the same day of the month that the Israelites had left the land of Egypt, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai.
V tretjem mesecu, ko so Izraelovi otroci odšli iz egiptovske dežele, istega dne, so prišli v Sinajsko divjino.
2 After they had set out from Rephidim, they entered the Wilderness of Sinai, and Israel camped there in front of the mountain.
Kajti odšli so iz Refidíma in prišli v sinajsko puščavo in se utaborili v divjini in tam je Izrael taboril pred goro.
3 Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, “This is what you are to tell the house of Jacob and explain to the sons of Israel:
Mojzes je odšel gor k Bogu in Gospod je zaklical k njemu z gore, rekoč: »Tako boš rekel Jakobovi hiši in povedal Izraelovim otrokom:
4 ‘You have seen for yourselves what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.
›Videli ste, kaj sem storil Egipčanom in kako sem vas nosil na orljih perutih in vas privedel k sebi.
5 Now if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, you will be My treasured possession out of all the nations—for the whole earth is Mine.
Zdaj torej, če boste zares poslušali moj glas in se držali moje zaveze, potem mi boste izvoljen zaklad nad vsemi ljudstvi, kajti vsa zemlja je moja,
6 And unto Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you are to speak to the Israelites.”
vi pa mi boste kraljestvo duhovnikov in svet narod.‹ To so besede, ki jih boš govoril Izraelovim otrokom.«
7 So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all these words that the LORD had commanded him.
Mojzes je prišel ter dal poklicati starešine ljudstva in pred njihove obraze položil vse te besede, ki mu jih je Gospod zapovedal.
8 And all the people answered together, “We will do everything that the LORD has spoken.” So Moses brought their words back to the LORD.
Vse ljudstvo je skupaj odgovorilo ter reklo: »Vse, kar je Gospod govoril, bomo storili.« In Mojzes je besede ljudstva ponovil Gospodu.
9 The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and they will always put their trust in you.” And Moses relayed to the LORD what the people had said.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Glej, k tebi pridem v gostem oblaku, da bo ljudstvo lahko slišalo, ko govorim s teboj in ti verjelo na veke.« In Mojzes je besede ljudstva povedal Gospodu.
10 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. They must wash their clothes
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Pojdi k ljudstvu in posvečuj jih danes in jutri in naj si operejo svoja oblačila
11 and be prepared by the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.
in bodite pripravljeni za tretji dan, kajti tretji dan bo Gospod prišel dol, v očeh vsega ljudstva, na goro Sinaj.
12 And you are to set up a boundary for the people around the mountain and tell them, ‘Be careful not to go up on the mountain or touch its base. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death.
Ti pa boš ljudstvu postavil meje naokoli, rekoč: ›Pazite se, da ne greste gor na goro ali se dotaknete njene meje. Kdorkoli se dotakne gore, bo zagotovo usmrčen.
13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows—whether man or beast, he must not live.’ Only when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast may they approach the mountain.”
Niti roka se ga ne bo dotaknila, temveč naj bo zagotovo kamnan ali prestreljen; bodisi bo to žival ali človek, naj ta ne živi. Ko zadoni trobljenje naj pridejo h gori.‹«
14 When Moses came down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes.
Mojzes je odšel dol z gore k ljudstvu in ljudstvo posvetil, in ti so si oprali svoja oblačila.
15 “Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”
Ljudstvu je rekel: »Bodite pripravljeni na tretji dan. Ne približujte se k svojim ženam.«
16 On the third day, when morning came, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people in the camp trembled.
Na tretji dan se je zjutraj pripetilo, da so bila grmenja in bliski in na gori gost oblak in silno glasen zvok šofarja, tako da je vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo v taboru, trepetalo.
17 Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
Mojzes je ljudstvo privedel iz tabora, da se sreča z Bogom. Stali so pri spodnjem delu gore.
18 Mount Sinai was completely enveloped in smoke, because the LORD had descended on it in fire. And the smoke rose like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently.
Gora Sinaj je bila povsem v dimu, ker se je Gospod nanjo spustil v ognju in njen dim se je vzpenjal kakor dim iz talilne peči in celotna gora se je silno tresla.
19 And as the sound of the ram’s horn grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him in the thunder.
Ko je glas šofarja zategnjeno donel in postajal glasnejši in glasnejši, je Mojzes spregovoril in Bog mu je odgovoril z glasom.
20 The LORD descended to the top of Mount Sinai and called Moses to the summit. So Moses went up,
Gospod je prišel dol na goro Sinaj, na vrh gore in Gospod je Mojzesa poklical gor na vrh gore in Mojzes je odšel gor.
21 and the LORD said to him, “Go down and warn the people not to break through to see the LORD, lest many of them perish.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Pojdi dol, naroči ljudstvu, da se ne bi prebili h Gospodu, da bi strmeli in se mnogi izmed njih pogubijo.
22 Even the priests who approach the LORD must consecrate themselves, or the LORD will break out against them.”
Naj se tudi duhovniki, ki pridejo bliže h Gospodu, posvétijo, da ne bi Gospod izbruhnil nad njimi.«
23 But Moses said to the LORD, “The people cannot come up Mount Sinai, for You solemnly warned us, ‘Put a boundary around the mountain and set it apart as holy.’”
Mojzes pa je rekel Gospodu: »Ljudstvo se ne more povzpeti na goro Sinaj, kajti zapovedal si nam, rekoč: ›Postavi meje okoli gore in jo posvéti.‹«
24 And the LORD replied, “Go down and bring Aaron with you. But the priests and the people must not break through to come up to the LORD, or He will break out against them.”
Gospod mu je rekel: »Proč, spusti se in prišel boš gor, ti in Aron s teboj. Toda duhovniki in ljudstvo naj se ne prebijejo, da pridejo h Gospodu, da ne bi nad njimi izbruhnil.«
25 So Moses went down to the people and spoke to them.
Tako je Mojzes odšel dol k ljudstvu in jim spregovoril.
