Exodus 19
1 In the third month of the departure of Israel from the land of Egypt, in that day, they arrived in the wilderness of Sinai.
Првог дана трећег месеца, пошто изађоше синови Израиљеви из Мисира, тог дана дођоше у пустињу Синајску.
2 Thus, setting out from Raphidim, and going directly to the desert of Sinai, they encamped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents away from the region of the mountain.
Кренувши се из Рафидина дођоше у пустињу Синајску, и стадоше у логор у пустињи, а логор начинише Израиљци онде под гором.
3 Then Moses ascended to God. And the Lord called to him from the mountain, and he said: “This you shall say to the house of Jacob, and announce to the sons of Israel:
И Мојсије изађе на гору к Богу; и повика му Господ с горе говорећи: Овако кажи дому Јаковљевом, и реци синовима Израиљевим:
4 ‘You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, in what way I carried you upon the wings of eagles and how I have taken you for myself.
Видели сте шта сам учинио Мисирцима и како сам вас као на крилима орловим носио и довео вас к себи.
5 If, therefore, you will hear my voice, and you will keep my covenant, you will be to me a particular possession out of all people. For all the earth is mine.
А сада ако добро узаслушате глас мој и ушчувате завет мој, бићете моје благо мимо све народе, премда је моја сва земља.
6 And you will be to me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you will speak to the sons of Israel.”
И бићете ми царство свештеничко и народ свет. То су речи које ћеш казати синовима Израиљевим.
7 Moses went, and calling together those greater by birth among the people, he set forth all the words which the Lord had commanded.
А Мојсије дође и сазва старешине народне; и каза им све ове речи које му Господ заповеди.
8 And all the people responded together: “Everything that the Lord has spoken, we shall do.” And when Moses had related the words of the people to the Lord,
А сав народ одговори сложно и рече: Шта је год казао Господ чинићемо. И Мојсије јави Господу речи народне.
9 the Lord said to him: “Soon now, I will come to you in the mist of a cloud, so that the people may hear me speaking to you, and so that they may believe you continuously.” Therefore, Moses reported the words of the people to the Lord,
А Господ рече Мојсију: Ево, ја ћу доћи к теби у густом облаку, да народ чује кад ти станем говорити и да ти верује до века. Јер Мојсије беше јавио Господу речи народне.
10 who said to him: “Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
И рече Господ Мојсију: Иди к народу, и освештај их данас и сутра, и нека оперу хаљине своје;
11 And let them be prepared on the third day. For on the third day, the Lord will descend, in the sight of all the people, over Mount Sinai.
И нека буду готови за трећи дан, јер ће у трећи дан сићи Господ на гору Синајску пред свим народом.
12 And you will establish limits for the people all around, and you will say to them: ‘Take care not to ascend to the mountain, and that you do not touch its parts. All who touch the mountain, shall die a death.’
А поставићеш народу међу унаоколо, и рећи ћеш: Чувајте се да не ступите на гору и да се не дотакнете краја њеног; шта се год дотакне горе, погинуће;
13 Hands shall not touch him, but he shall be crushed with stones, or he shall be pierced through with darts. Whether it be a beast or a man, he shall not live. For when the trumpet begins to sound, perhaps they might go up toward the mountain.”
Тога да се нико не дотакне руком, него камењем да се заспе или да се устрели, било живинче или човек, да не остане у животу. Кад рог затруби отежући онда нека пођу на гору.
14 And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and he sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
И Мојсије сиђе с горе к народу; и освешта народ, и опраше хаљине своје.
15 he said to them, “Be prepared on the third day, and do not draw near to your wives.”
И рече народу: Будите готови за трећи дан, и не лежите са женама.
16 And now, the third day arrived and the morning dawned. And behold, thunders began to be heard, and also lightning flashed, and a very dense cloud covered the mountain, and the noise of the trumpet resounded vehemently. And the people who were in the camp were fearful.
А трећи дан кад би ујутру, громови загрмеше и муње засеваше, и поста густ облак на гори, и затруби труба веома јако, да задрхта сав народ који беше у логору.
17 And when Moses had led them out to meet God, from the place of the camp, they stood at the base of the mountain.
Тада Мојсије изведе народ из логора пред Бога, и стадоше испод горе.
18 Then all of Mount Sinai was smoking. For the Lord had descended over it with fire, and smoke ascended from it, as from a furnace. And the entire mountain was terrible.
А гора се Синајска сва димљаше, јер сиђе на њу Господ у огњу; и дим се из ње подизаше као дим из пећи, и сва се гора трешаше веома.
19 And the sound of the trumpet gradually increased to be louder, and extended to be longer. Moses was speaking, and God was answering him.
И труба све јаче трубљаше, и Мојсије говораше а Бог му одговараше гласом.
20 And the Lord descended over Mount Sinai, to the very top of the mountain, and he called Moses to its summit. And when he had ascended there,
И Господ сишавши на гору Синајску, на врх горе, позва Мојсија на врх горе; и изађе Мојсије.
21 he said to him: “Descend, and call the people to witness, lest they might be willing to transgress the limits, so as to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them might perish.
А Господ рече Мојсију: Сиђи, опомени народ да не преступе међе да виде Господа, да не би изгинули од мене.
22 Likewise, the priests who approach toward the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them down.”
И сами свештеници, који приступају ка Господу, нека се освештају, да их не би побио Господ.
23 And Moses said to the Lord: “The people are not able to ascend to Mount Sinai. For you testified, and you commanded, saying: ‘Set limits around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
А Мојсије рече Господу: Неће моћи народ изаћи на гору Синајску, јер си нас Ти опоменуо рекавши: Начини међу гори и освештај је.
24 And the Lord said to him, “Go, descend. And you shall ascend, and Aaron with you. But let not the priests or the people transgress the limits, nor ascend to the Lord, lest perhaps he may put them to death.”
А Господ му рече: Иди, сиђи, па онда дођи ти и Арон с тобом; а свештеници и народ нека не преступе међе да се попну ка Господу, да их не би побио.
25 And Moses descended to the people, and he explained everything to them.
И сиђе Мојсије к народу, и каза им.
