Exodus 4
1 And Moses, answering, said, It is certain that they will not have faith in me or give ear to my voice; for they will say, You have not seen the Lord.
А Мојсије одговори и рече: Али неће ми веровати ни послушати глас мој; јер ће рећи: Није ти се Господ јавио.
2 And the Lord said to him, What is that in your hand? And he said, A rod.
А Господ му рече: Шта ти је то у руци? А он одговори: Штап.
3 And he said, Put it down on the earth. And he put it down on the earth and it became a snake; and Moses went running from it.
А Бог му рече: Баци га на земљу. И баци га на земљу, а он поста змија. И Мојсије побеже од ње.
4 And the Lord said to Moses, Put out your hand and take it by the tail: (and he put out his hand and took a grip of it and it became a rod in his hand: )
А Господ рече Мојсију: Пружи руку своју, па је ухвати за реп. И пружи руку своју, и ухвати је, и опет поста штап у руци његовој.
5 So that they may be certain that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by you.
То учини, рече Господ, да верују да ти се јавио Господ Бог отаца њихових, Бог Аврамов, Бог Исаков и Бог Јаковљев.
6 Then the Lord said to him again, Put your hand inside your clothing. And he put his hand inside his robe: and when he took it out it was like the hand of a leper, as white as snow.
И опет му рече Господ: Тури сада руку своју у недра своја. И он тури руку своју у недра своја; а кад је извади из недара, а то рука му губава, бела као снег.
7 And he said, Put your hand inside your robe again. (And he put his hand into his robe again, and when he took it out he saw that it had become like his other flesh.)
А Бог му рече: Тури опет руку своју у недра своја. И опет тури руку своју у недра своја; а кад је извади из недара, а то опет постала као и остало тело његово.
8 And if they do not have faith in you or give ear to the voice of the first sign, they will have faith in the second sign.
Тако, рече Бог, ако ти не узверују и не послушају глас твој за први знак, послушаће за други знак.
9 And if they have no faith even in these two signs and will not give ear to your voice, then you are to take the water of the Nile and put it on the dry land: and the water you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land.
Ако ли не узверују ни за та два знака и не послушају глас твој, а ти захвати воде из реке, и пролиј на земљу, и претвориће се вода коју захватиш из реке, и проврћи ће се у крв на земљи.
10 And Moses said to the Lord, O Lord, I am not a man of words; I have never been so, and am not now, even after what you have said to your servant: for talking is hard for me, and I am slow of tongue.
А Мојсије рече Господу: Молим Ти се, Господе, нисам речит човек, нити сам пре био нити сам откако си проговорио са слугом својим, него сам спорих уста и спорог језика.
11 And the Lord said to him, Who has made man's mouth? who takes away a man's voice or hearing, or makes him seeing or blind? Is it not I, the Lord?
А Господ му рече: Ко је дао уста човеку? Или ко може створити немог или глувог или окатог или слепог? Зар не ја, Господ?
12 So go now, and I will be with your mouth, teaching you what to say.
Иди дакле, ја ћу бити с устима твојим, и учићу те шта ћеш говорити.
13 And he said, O Lord, send, if you will, by the hand of anyone whom it seems good to you to send.
А Мојсије рече: Молим Те, Господе, пошљи оног кога треба да пошаљеш.
14 And the Lord was angry with Moses, and said, Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? To my knowledge he is good at talking. And now he is coming out to you: and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart.
И разгневи се Господ на Мојсија, и рече му: Није ли ти брат Арон Левит? Знам да је он речит; и ево он ће те срести, и кад те види обрадоваће се у срцу свом.
15 Let him give ear to your voice, and you will put my words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his, teaching you what you have to do.
Њему ћеш казати и метнућеш ове речи у уста његова, и ја ћу бити с твојим устима и с његовим устима, и учићу вас шта ћете чинити.
16 And he will do the talking for you to the people: he will be to you as a mouth and you will be to him as God.
И он ће место тебе говорити народу, и он ће бити теби место уста, а ти ћеш бити њему место Бога.
17 And take in your hand this rod with which you will do the signs.
А тај штап узми у руку своју, њим ћеш чинити чудеса.
18 And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.
И отиде Мојсије, и врати се к Јотору тасту свом, и рече му: Пусти ме да идем, да се вратим к браћи својој у Мисиру, да видим јесу ли још у животу. И рече Јотор Мојсију: Иди с миром.
19 And the Lord said to Moses in Midian, Go back to Egypt, for all the men are dead who were attempting to take your life.
И рече Господ Мојсију у земљи мадијанској: Иди, врати се у Мисир, јер су помрли сви који су тражили душу твоју.
20 And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand.
И узе Мојсије жену своју и синове своје, и посади их на магарца, и пође натраг у земљу мисирску. И узе Мојсије штап Божји у руку своју.
21 And the Lord said to Moses, When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have given you power to do: but I will make his heart hard and he will not let the people go.
И рече Господ Мојсију: Кад отидеш и вратиш се у Мисир, гледај да учиниш пред Фараоном сва чудеса која ти метнух у руку: а ја ћу учинити да му отврдне срце и не пусти народ.
22 And you are to say to Pharaoh, The Lord says, Israel is the first of my sons:
А ти ћеш рећи Фараону: Овако каже Господ: Израиљ је син мој, првенац мој.
23 And I said to you, Let my son go, so that he may give me worship; and you did not let him go: so now I will put the first of your sons to death.
И казах ти: Пусти сина мог да ми послужи. А ти га не хте пустити; ево ја ћу убити сина твог, првенца твог.
24 Now on the journey, at the night's resting-place, the Lord came in his way and would have put him to death.
И кад беше на путу у гостионици, дође к њему Господ и хтеде да га убије.
25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cutting off the skin of her son's private parts, and touching his feet with it, she said, Truly you are a husband of blood to me.
А Сефора узе оштар нож, и обреза сина свог, и окрајак баци к ногама његовим говорећи: Ти си ми крвав заручник.
26 So he let him go. Then she said, You are a husband of blood because of the circumcision.
Тада га остави Господ; а она ради обрезања рече: Крвав заручник.
27 And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss.
А Господ рече Арону: Изиђи у пустињу на сусрет Мојсију. И отиде и срете га на гори Божијој, и пољуби га.
28 And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do.
И Мојсије каза Арону све речи Господње, за које га посла, и све знаке које му заповеди.
29 Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel:
И отидоше Мојсије и Арон, и скупише све старешине синова Израиљевих.
30 And Aaron said to them all the words the Lord had said to Moses, and did the signs before all the people.
И Арон каза све речи, које беше рекао Господ Мојсију, а Мојсије учини знаке пред народом.
31 And the people had faith in them; and hearing that the Lord had taken up the cause of the children of Israel and had seen their troubles, with bent heads they gave him worship.
И народ верова; и разумеше да је Господ походио синове Израиљеве и видео невољу њихову; и савивши се поклонише се.
