< Exodus 10 >
1 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have declared his heart hard, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these signs of Mine in their midst,
Reče Jahve Mojsiju: “Idi k faraonu. Učinio sam da njemu i njegovim službenicima otvrdne srce da izvedem svoja znamenja među njima;
2 and so that you recount in the ears of your son, and of your son’s son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
da možeš pripovjedati svome sinu i svome unuku što sam učinio Egipćanima i kakva sam znamenja izvodio među njima, kako biste znali da sam ja Jahve.”
3 And Moses comes in—Aaron also—to Pharaoh, and they say to him, “Thus said YHWH, God of the Hebrews: Until when have you refused to be humbled at My presence? Send My people away, and they serve Me,
Tako Mojsije i Aron odu k faraonu i kažu mu: “Ovako poručuje Jahve, Bog Hebreja: 'Dokle ćeš odbijati da se preda mnom poniziš? Pusti moj narod da mi iskaže štovanje.
4 for if you are refusing to send My people away, behold, tomorrow I am bringing in the locust into your border,
Jer ako ne pustiš moga naroda, sutra ću navesti skakavce na tvoju zemlju.
5 and it has covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it has eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it has eaten every tree which is springing out of the field for you;
Tako će prekriti površinu da se zemlja od njih neće vidjeti. Pojest će ono što vam je iza tuče ostalo; i ogolit će vam sva stabla što po polju rastu.
6 and they have filled your houses, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither your fathers nor your father’s fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground to this day.” And he turns and goes out from Pharaoh.
Ispunit će ti sav dvor, kuće tvojih službenika i domove svih ostalih Egipćana - takvo što ne vidješe ni tvoji očevi ni očevi tvojih očeva u ovoj zemlji od svojih vremena do danas.'” Okrene se i ode od faraona.
7 And the servants of Pharaoh say to him, “Until when does this [one] become a snare to us? Send the men away, and they serve their God YHWH; do you not yet know that Egypt has perished?”
“Dokle će nam ovaj čovjek biti stupica?” - rekoše faraonu njegovi službenici. - “Pusti te ljude neka idu i iskažu štovanje Jahvi, svome Bogu! Zar ne vidiš kako Egipat srlja u propast?”
8 And Moses is brought back—Aaron also—to Pharaoh, and he says to them, “Go, serve your God YHWH, but who—who [are] those going?”
Dovedu Mojsija i Arona natrag k faraonu, a on im reče: “Idite! Iskažite štovanje Jahvi, svome Bogu! A tko će sve ići?”
9 And Moses says, “With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to YHWH.”
“Svi idemo”, odgovori Mojsije, “i mlado i staro. Odlazimo sa svojim sinovima i svojim kćerima; sa svojom krupnom i sitnom stokom, jer moramo održati svečanost Jahvi.”
10 And he says to them, “Be it so, YHWH [is] with you when I send you and your infants away; see—for evil [is] before your faces.
“Jahve bio s vama isto kao što i ja pustio da s vama pođu i djeca!” - odgovori im. “Očito se vidi da vam nakana nije čista.
11 Not so! Go now, you who [are] men, and serve YHWH, for that you are seeking”; and [one] casts them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
Nećemo tako! Nego muškarci neka odu i štovanje iskažu Jahvi. To ste i tražili.” I otjeraju ih od faraona.
12 And YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goes up against the land of Egypt, and eats every herb of the land—all that the hail has left.”
Tada reče Jahve Mojsiju: “Pruži ruku povrh zemlje egipatske da navale skakavci na egipatsku zemlju i pojedu sve bilje što još ostade nakon tuče!”
13 And Moses stretches out his rod against the land of Egypt, and YHWH has led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning has been, and the east wind has lifted up the locust.
Tako Mojsije podigne svoj štap povrh egipatske zemlje, a Jahve navrati istočni vjetar po zemlji; puhao je toga cijelog dana i cijele noći. A kad je jutro svanulo, vjetar nanio skakavce.
14 And the locust goes up against all the land of Egypt, and rests in all the border of Egypt—very grievous: before it there has not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none such;
Oni se razlete po svoj egipatskoj zemlji i padnu po svim krajevima Egipta u silnoj gustoći: toliko ih mnoštvo nikad prije nije bilo niti će kada biti.
15 and it covers the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eats every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail has left, and there has not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.
Pokriju sve tlo, tako da se od njih zacrnjelo. Pojedu sve bilje u polju i sve plodove sa stabala što su bili ostali iza tuče. Ništa se više nije zelenjelo: ni stabla ni poljska trava u svem Egiptu.
16 And Pharaoh hurries to call for Moses and for Aaron and says, “I have sinned against your God YHWH, and against you,
Brže-bolje dozva faraon Mojsija i Arona pa im reče: “Sagriješio sam protiv Jahve, vašega Boga, i vas!
17 and now, please bear with my sin, only this time, and make supplication to your God YHWH, that He may turn aside from off me only this death.”
Oprostite mi uvredu još samo ovaj put i molite Jahvu, Boga svoga, da samo otkloni od mene ovaj smrtonosni bič!”
18 And he goes out from Pharaoh, and makes supplication to YHWH,
Kad je Mojsije otišao od faraona, zazva Jahvu
19 and YHWH turns a very strong sea wind, and it lifts up the locust, and blows it into the Red Sea—there has not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
i Jahve promijeni vjetar u veoma jak zapadnjak, koji pothvati skakavce i odnese prema Crvenome moru. Ni jedan jedini skakavac nije ostao ni u kojem kraju Egipta.
20 and YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh, and he has not sent the sons of Israel away.
Ali je Jahve otvrdnuo srce faraonu i ne pusti on Izraelaca.
21 And YHWH says to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.”
“Pruži ruku prema nebu”, rekne Jahve Mojsiju, “pa neka se tmina spusti na egipatsku zemlju, tmina koja će se moći opipati.”
22 And Moses stretches out his hand toward the heavens, and there is darkness—thick darkness in all the land of Egypt [for] three days;
Mojsije pruži ruku prema nebu i spusti se gusta tmina na svu zemlju egipatsku: tri je dana trajala.
23 they have not seen one another, and none has risen from his place [for] three days; but there has been light for all the sons of Israel in their dwellings.
Tri dana nisu ljudi jedan drugoga mogli vidjeti i nitko se sa svoga mjesta nije micao. A u mjestima gdje su Izraelci živjeli sjala svjetlost.
24 And Pharaoh calls to Moses and says, “Go, serve YHWH, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants also go with you”;
Pozva onda faraon Mojsija i reče: “Idi i štovanje iskaži Jahvi! Ali vaša stoka, krupna i sitna, neka ostane ovdje. Vaša djeca neka idu s vama!”
25 and Moses says, “You also give sacrifices and burnt-offerings in our hand, and we have prepared for our God YHWH;
“Ti nas sam moraš opskrbiti prinosima i žrtvama paljenicama koje ćemo prinijeti Jahvi, Bogu svojemu”, odgovori Mojsije.
26 and also our livestock go with us—there is not left a hoof, for we take from it to serve our God YHWH; and we do not know how we serve YHWH until our going there.”
“Zato ćemo sa sobom potjerati i svoja stada. Ni papak neće ostati ovdje. Od njih nam valja izabrati za žrtvovanje Jahvi, Bogu našemu, a ne znamo, dok onamo ne stignemo, što moramo Jahvi prinijeti.”
27 And YHWH strengthens the heart of Pharaoh, and he has not been willing to send them away;
Jahve otvrdne faraonu srce i on ne pristane da odu.
28 and Pharaoh says to him, “Go from me, take heed to yourself, do not add to see my face, for in the day you see my face you die”;
“Odlazi!” - vikne faraon na Mojsija. “I da mi više na oči ne dolaziš! Onoga dana kad mi se opet pojaviš na oči, zaglavit ćeš!”
29 and Moses says, “You have spoken correctly, I do not add to see your face anymore.”
“Dobro si kazao!” - uzvrati Mojsije. “Lica tvoga više neću vidjeti!”
