< Exodus 14 >
1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
И рече Господ Мојсију говорећи:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi-hachiroth, between Migdol and the sea; in front of Baal-zephon; opposite to this shall ye encamp by the sea.
Кажи синовима Израиљевим нека савију и стану у логор пред Пи-Аирот између Мигдола и мора према Вел-Сефону; према њему нека стану у логор покрај мора.
3 And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.
Јер ће Фараон рећи за синове Израиљеве: Зашли су у земљу, затворила их је пустиња.
4 And I will harden the heart of Pharaoh, that he shall follow after them; and I will get myself honor on Pharaoh, and on all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord; and they did so.
И учинићу да отврдне срце Фараону, те ће поћи у потеру за вама, и ја ћу се прославити на њему и на свој војсци његовој, и Мисирци ће познати да сам ја Господ. И учинише тако.
5 And it was told to the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed with respect to the people, and they said, What is this which we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
А кад би јављено цару мисирском да је побегао народ, промени се срце Фараоново и слуга његових према народу, те рекоше: Шта учинисмо, те пустисмо Израиља да нам не служи?
6 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him.
И упреже у кола своја, и узе народ свој са собом.
7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
И узе шест стотина кола изабраних и шта још беше кола мисирских, и над свима војводе.
8 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
И Господ учини те отврдну срце Фараону цару мисирском, и пође у потеру за синовима Израиљевим, кад синови Израиљеви отидоше под руком високом.
9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, and they overtook them encamping by the sea, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, beside Pi-hachiroth, before Baal-zephon.
И теравши их Мисирци стигоше их, сва кола Фараонова, коњици његови и војска његова, кад беху у логору на мору код Пи-Аирота према Вел-Сефону.
10 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they were greatly afraid; and the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord.
И кад се приближи Фараон, подигоше синови Израиљеви очи своје а то Мисирци иду за њима, и уплашише се врло, и повикаше синови Израиљеви ка Господу.
11 And they said unto Moses, Is it because there were no graves in Egypt, that thou hast taken us away to die in the wilderness? what is this which thou hast done to us, to bring us forth out of Egypt?
И рекоше Мојсију: Зар не беше гробова у Мисиру, него нас доведе да изгинемо у пустињи? Шта учини, те нас изведе из Мисира.
12 Is not this the word that we spoke unto thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? for it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness.
Нисмо ли ти говорили у Мисиру и рекли: Прођи нас се, нека служимо Мисирцима? Јер би нам боље било служити Мисирцима него изгинути у пустињи.
13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will do for you today; for as ye have seen the Egyptians today, ye shall not see them again any more for ever.
А Мојсије рече народу: Не бојте се, станите па гледајте како ће вас Господ избавити данас; јер Мисирце које сте видели данас, нећете их никада више видети до века.
14 The Lord will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
Господ ће се бити за вас, а ви ћете ћутати.
15 And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward;
А Господ рече Мојсију: Што вичеш к мени? Кажи синовима Израиљевим нека иду.
16 But do thou lift up thy staff, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
А ти дигни штап свој и пружи руку своју на море, и расцепи га, па нека иду синови Израиљеви посред мора сувим.
17 And I, behold, I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get myself honor on Pharaoh, and on all his host, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.
И гле, ја ћу учинити да отврдне срце Мисирцима, те ће поћи за њима; и прославићу се на Фараону и на свој војсци његовој, на колима његовим и на коњицима његовим.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have got myself honor on Pharaoh, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.
И Мисирци ће познати да сам ја Господ, кад се прославим на Фараону, на колима његовим и на коњицима његовим.
19 And the angel of God, that went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them;
И подиже се анђео Господњи, који иђаше пред војском израиљском, и отиде им за леђа; и подиже се ступ од облака испред њих, и стаде им за леђа.
20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness [to the first], but it gave light by night [to these]: and the one came not near unto the other all the night.
И дошав међу војску мисирску и војску израиљску беше оним облак мрачан а овим светљаше по ноћи, те не приступише једни другима целу ноћ.
21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord drove back the sea with a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
И пружи Мојсије руку своју на море, а Господ узби море ветром источним, који јако дуваше целу ноћ, и осуши море, и вода се раступи.
22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them, on their right hand, and on their left.
И пођоше синови Израиљеви посред мора сувим, и вода им стајаше као зид с десне стране и с леве стране.
23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen, to the midst of the sea.
И Мисирци терајући их пођоше за њима посред мора, сви коњи Фараонови, кола и коњици његови.
24 And it came to pass in the morning watch, that the Lord looked unto the camp of the Egyptians with the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and brought into confusion the camp of the Egyptians;
А у стражу јутарњу погледа Господ на војску мисирску из ступа од огња и облака, и смете војску мисирску.
25 And he took off the wheels of their chariots, and caused them to move onward with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
И побаца точкове колима њиховим, те их једва вуцијаху. Тада рекоше Мисирци: Бежимо од Израиља, јер се Господ бије за њих с Мисирцима.
26 And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, and the waters shall return over the Egyptians, over their chariots, and over their horsemen.
А Господ рече Мојсију: Пружи руку своју на море, нека се врати вода на Мисирце, на кола њихова и на коњике њихове.
27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned, when the morning appeared, to its strength; while the Egyptians were fleeing against it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
И Мојсије пружи руку своју на море, и дође опет море на силу своју пред зору, а Мисирци нагоше бежати према мору; и Господ баци Мисирце усред мора.
28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen with all the host of Pharaoh that came after them into the sea: there remained of them not even one.
А вративши се вода потопи кола и коњике са свом војском Фараоновом, што их год беше пошло за њима у море, и не оста од њих ниједан.
29 But the children of Israel walked upon dry ground in the midst of the sea; and the waters were unto them a wall on their right hand, and on their left.
И синови Израиљеви иђаху посред мора сувим; и стајаше им вода као зид с десне стране и с леве стране.
30 Thus the Lord saved Israel on that day out of the land of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the shore of the sea.
И избави Господ Израиља у онај дан из руку мисирских; и виде Израиљ мртве Мисирце на брегу морском.
31 And Israel saw that great power which the Lord had shown on the Egyptians: and the people feared the Lord, and then believed in the Lord, and in Moses his servant.
И виде Израиљ силу велику, коју показа Господ на Мисирцима, и народ се побоја Господа, и верова Господу и Мојсију слузи Његовом.
