Exodus 9
1 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh, and say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people, to sacrifice to me.
Tada Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Idi k faraonu i reci mu: 'Ovako poručuje Jahve, Bog Hebreja: Pusti moj narod da ode i da mi štovanje iskaže.
2 But if you still refuse, and you retain them,
Ako ga ne pustiš, nego ga i dalje budeš zadržavao,
3 behold, my hand will be over your fields. And a very grievous pestilence will be upon the horses, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the oxen, and the sheep.
ruka Jahvina udarit će strašnim pomorom po tvome blagu što je u polju: po konjima, magaradi, devama, krupnoj i sitnoj stoci.
4 And the Lord will cause a miracle between the possessions of Israel and the possessions of the Egyptians, so that nothing at all will perish from those things which belong to the sons of Israel.”
Razlikovat će Jahve stoku Izraelaca od stoke Egipćana, tako da ništa što pripada Izraelcima neće stradati.'”
5 And the Lord appointed a time, saying: “Tomorrow, the Lord will accomplish this word in the land.”
Jahve je odredio i vrijeme, rekavši: “Sutra će Jahve izvesti ovo u zemlji.”
6 Therefore, the Lord accomplished this word the next day. And all the animals of the Egyptians died. Yet truly, of the animals of the sons of Israel, nothing at all perished.
Sutradan Jahve tako i učini. Sva stoka Egipćana ugine, a od stoke Izraelaca nije uginulo ni jedno grlo.
7 And Pharaoh sent to see; neither was there anything dead of those things that Israel possessed. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not release the people.
Faraon je istraživao i uvjerio se da od izraelske stoke nije uginulo ni jedno grlo. Ali je srce faraonovo ipak otvrdlo i nije pustio naroda.
8 And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron: “Take handfuls of ashes from the oven, and let Moses sprinkle it into the air, in the sight of Pharaoh.
Reče Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu: “Zagrabite pune pregršti pepela iz peći, pa neka ga Mojsije pred faraonovim očima baci prema nebu.
9 And let there be dust upon all the land of Egypt. For there will be sores and swelling pustules on men and on beasts, throughout the entire land of Egypt.”
Od toga će nastati sitna prašina po svoj zemlji egipatskoj, i na ljudima će i na životinjama izazivati otekline i stvarati čireve s kraja na kraj Egipta.”
10 And they took ashes from the oven, and they stood in the sight of Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it in the air. And there came sores with swelling pustules on men and on beasts.
Tako oni uzeše pepela iz peći i dođoše pred faraona. Onda Mojsije rasu pepeo prema nebu, a otekline s čirevima prekriše ljude i životinje.
11 Neither could the sorcerers stand in the sight of Moses, because of the sores that were on them and on all the land of Egypt.
Ni čarobnjaci se nisu mogli pojaviti pred Mojsijem, jer su i čarobnjaci, kao i ostali Egipćani, bili prekriveni čirevima.
12 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord said to Moses.
Ali je Jahve otvrdnuo srce faraonu, pa on ne posluša Mojsija i Arona, kako je Jahve Mojsiju i rekao.
13 And the Lord said to Moses: “Rise up in the morning, and stand in the sight of Pharaoh, and you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people to sacrifice to me.
Tada Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Podrani ujutro, iziđi pred faraona i reci mu: 'Ovako poručuje Jahve, Bog Hebreja: Pusti narod da ode i da mi štovanje iskaže.
14 For at this turn, I will send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants, and upon your people. So may you know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
Ako ih ne pustiš, sva zla svoja navalit ću ovaj put na te, na tvoje službenike i tvoj puk, tako da spoznaš da nema nikoga na svoj zemlji kao što sam ja.
15 For now, extending my hand, I shall strike you and your people with pestilence, and you will perish from the earth.
Da sam ruku svoju spustio i udario tebe i tvoj puk pomorom, nestalo bi te sa zemlje.
16 But it was for this reason that I appointed you, so that I may reveal my strength by you, and so that my name may be described throughout all the earth.
Poštedio sam te da ti pokažem svoju moć i da se hvali moje ime po svoj zemlji.
17 Do you still retain my people, and are you still unwilling to release them?
Ali se ti previše uzdižeš nad mojim narodom i priječiš mu da ode.
18 So then, tomorrow, at this same hour, I will rain down exceedingly great hail, such as has not been in Egypt from the day that it was founded, even until this present time.
Sutra u ovo doba pustit ću tuču tako strašnu kakve u Egiptu još nije bilo otkad je postao do sada.
19 Therefore, send immediately and gather together your cattle, and all that you have in the field. For men and beasts, and all things that will be found outside, not gathered in from the fields, and on which the hail will fall, shall die.’”
Zato naredi da pod krov utjeraju tvoje blago i sve što je vani, na otvorenu. Sve što se nađe u polju, bilo čovjek bilo živinče, ne bude li uvedeno unutra, poginut će kad tuča zaspe po njima.'”
20 He who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh caused his servants and cattle to flee together into the houses.
Faraonovi službenici, koji su se pobojali Jahvina govora, utjeraju svoje sluge i svoje blago unutra.
21 But he who neglected the word of the Lord released his servants and cattle into the fields.
Oni koji nisu marili za Jahvinu prijetnju ostave vani i svoje sluge i stoku.
22 And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky, so that there may be hail in the entire land of Egypt, on men, and on beasts, and on every plant of the field in the land of Egypt.”
Onda rekne Jahve Mojsiju: “Pruži ruku prema nebu da udari tuča po svoj zemlji egipatskoj: po ljudima, životinjama i svemu bilju u zemlji egipatskoj.”
23 And Moses extended his staff into the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and also lightning dashing across the earth. And the Lord rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
Mojsije diže svoj štap prema nebu. Jahve zagrmje i pusti tuču i munje sastavi sa zemljom. Sipao je Jahve tuču po zemlji Egipćana.
24 And the hail and intermingled fire drove on together. And it was of such magnitude as had never before been seen in the entire land of Egypt, from the time when that nation was formed.
Tuča je mlatila, kroz nju munje parale. Strahota se takva nije oborila na zemlju egipatsku otkako su ljudi u njoj.
25 And the hail struck, throughout all the land of Egypt, everything that was in the fields, from man even to beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field, and it broke every tree of the region.
Tuča pobi po svem Egiptu sve što je ostalo vani, ljude i životinje; uništi sve bilje po poljima i sva stabla poljska polomi.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, did the hail not fall.
Samo u gošenskom kraju, gdje su živjeli Izraelci, nije bilo tuče.
27 And Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron, saying to them: “I have sinned even until now. The Lord is just. I and my people are impious.
Faraon posla po Mojsija i Arona pa im reče: “Ovaj put priznajem da sam kriv. Jahve ima pravo, a ja i moj narod krivo.
28 Pray to the Lord, so that the thundering of God and the hail may cease, so that I may release you, and so that you may by no means remain here any longer.”
Molite Jahvu da ustavi gromove i tuču, a ja ću vas pustiti da idete. Nećete više dugo ostati.”
29 Moses said: “When I have departed from the city, I will extend my hands to the Lord, and the thunders will cease, and the hail will not be, so that you may know that the earth belongs to the Lord.
“Kad iziđem iz grada”, reče mu Mojsije, “dići ću ruke prema Jahvi, pa će gromovi prestati, a ni tuče više neće biti, tako da znaš da zemlja pripada Jahvi.
30 But I know that both you and your servants do not yet fear the Lord God.”
Ali ni ti ni tvoji dvorani, znam ja, još se ne bojite Boga Jahve.”
31 And so, the flax and the barley were damaged, because the barley was growing, and the flax was already developing grains.
I tako propade lan i ječam: jer ječam bijaše u klasu, a lan u cvatu.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not damaged, because they were late.
Pšenica i raž nisu nastradali jer su ozima žita.
33 And Moses, departing from Pharaoh out of the city, reached out his hands toward the Lord. And the thunders and hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the land.
Otišavši od faraona, Mojsije iziđe iz grada i podigne ruke prema Jahvi. Prestane grmljavina i tuča, a ni kiša više nije padala na zemlju.
34 Then Pharaoh, seeing that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders had ceased, added to his sin.
Kad je faraon vidio da je prestala grmljavina, tuča i kiša, opet padne u grijeh: i on i njegovi službenici opet otvrdnu srcem.
35 And his heart was weighed down, along with that of his servants, and it was hardened exceedingly. Neither did he release the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses.
Otvrdnu srce faraonu i ne pusti on Izraelce, kako je Jahve i prorekao preko Mojsija.
