Exodus 19
1 In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
Tri mjeseca nakon izlaska iz zemlje egipatske, istoga dana, stignu Izraelci u Sinajsku pustinju.
2 and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encamps there before the mountain.
Idući od Refidima, dođu u Sinajsku pustinju i utabore se u pustinji. Postave Izraelci tabor tu pred brdom,
3 And Moses has gone up to God, and YHWH calls to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus you say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel:
a Mojsije se popne k Bogu. Jahve ga zovne s brda pa mu rekne: “Ovako kaži domu Jakovljevu, proglasi djeci Izraelovoj:
4 You have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I carry you on eagles’ wings and bring you to Myself.
'Vi ste vidjeli što sam učinio Egipćanima; kako sam vas nosio na orlovskim krilima i k sebi vas doveo.
5 And now, if you really listen to My voice, then you have kept My covenant, and have been a special treasure to Me more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
Stoga, budete li mi se vjerno pokoravali i držali moj Savez, vi ćete mi biti predraga svojina mimo sve narode - tÓa moj je sav svijet! -
6 and you are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which you speak to the sons of Israel.”
vi ćete mi biti kraljevstvo svećenika, narod svet.' Tim riječima oslovi Izraelce.”
7 And Moses comes, and calls for [the] elderly of the people, and sets before them all these words which YHWH has commanded him;
Mojsije se vrati i sazva narodne starješine te im izloži sve što mu je Jahve naredio.
8 and all the people answer together and say, “All that YHWH has spoken we do”; and Moses returns the words of the people to YHWH.
A sav narod uzvrati jednoglasno: “Vršit ćemo sve što je Jahve naredio.” Onda Mojsije prenese odgovor naroda Jahvi.
9 And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am coming to you in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with you, and also believe in you for all time”; and Moses declares the words of the people to YHWH.
Nato Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Ja ću, evo, doći k tebi u gustom oblaku da narod čuje kad budem s tobom govorio i da ti zauvijek vjeruje.” Tako je Mojsije prenio Jahvi odgovor naroda.
10 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to the people and you have sanctified them today and tomorrow, and they have washed their garments,
“Pođi k narodu”, reče Jahve Mojsiju, “i posvećuj ga danas i sutra. Neka opere svoju odjeću;
11 and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people.
neka bude gotov prekosutra, jer će prekosutra sići Jahve na brdo Sinaj naočigled svega puka.
12 And you have made a border [for] the people all around, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mountain or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mountain is certainly put to death;
Postavi naokolo granicu za narod i izdaj naredbu: 'Pripazite da se na brdo ne penjete; da se ni podnožja ne dotičete! Tko se god brda dotakne, smrt će ga snaći.
13 a hand does not come against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man—it does not live; in the prolonging of the ram’s horn they go up into the mountain.”
Nikakva ruka neka ga se ne dotakne, nego neka bude kamenjem zasut ili strijelom ustrijeljen: bio čovjek ili živinče, neka na životu ne ostane.' Na otegnuti zvuk trube neka se na brdo penju.”
14 And Moses comes down from the mountain to the people, and sanctifies the people, and they wash their garments;
Mojsije siđe s brda k narodu i poče posvećivati narod. Oni operu svoju odjeću.
15 and he says to the people, “Be prepared for the third day, do not come near to a woman.”
“Budite gotovi za prekosutra!” - rekne Mojsije narodu. “Ne primičite se ženi!”
16 And it comes to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of a very strong horn; and all the people who [are] in the camp tremble.
A prekosutra, u osvit dana, prolomi se grmljavina, munje zasijevaše, a gust se oblak nadvi nad brdo. Gromko zaječa truba, zadrhta sav puk koji bijaše u taboru.
17 And Moses brings out the people from the camp to meet God, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mountain,
Mojsije povede puk iz tabora u susret Bogu. Stadoše na podnožju brda.
18 and Mount Sinai [is] wholly [in] smoke from the presence of YHWH, who has come down on it in fire, and its smoke goes up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mountain trembles exceedingly;
Brdo Sinaj zavilo se u dim jer je Jahve u obliku ognja sišao na nj. Dizao se dim kao dim iz peći. Sve se brdo silno treslo.
19 and the sound of the horn is going on, and [is] very strong; Moses speaks, and God answers him with a voice.
Zvuk trube bivao sve jači. Mojsije je govorio, a Bog mu grmljavinom odgovarao.
20 And YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and YHWH calls for Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses goes up.
Jahve siđe na Sinajsko brdo, na vrhunac, i pozva Jahve Mojsija na vrhunac brda. Mojsije se uspe.
21 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through to YHWH to see, and many of them have fallen;
Sad Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Siđi i opomeni narod da ne bi provalio prema Jahvi da ga vidi. Mnogo bi ih poginulo.
22 and also the priests who are coming near to YHWH sanctify themselves, lest YHWH break forth on them.”
I sami svećenici, koji dolaze blizu Jahvi, moraju se očistiti, da ih Jahve ne uništi.”
23 And Moses says to YHWH, “The people [are] unable to come up to Mount Sinai, for You have protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mountain, then you have sanctified it.”
“Narod se ne može popeti na brdo Sinaj”, odgovori Mojsije Jahvi, “jer si nas sam ti opomenuo: 'Postavi granice naokolo brda i proglasi ga svetim.'”
24 And YHWH says to him, “Go, descend, then you have come up, you and Aaron with you; and the priests and the people do not break through to come up to YHWH, lest He break forth on them.”
“Siđi pa se opet popni zajedno s Aronom”, odgovori mu Jahve. “Ali neka svećenici i narod ne navaljuju da se popnu prema Jahvi da ne izginu.”
25 And Moses goes down to the people and speaks to them.
Mojsije siđe k narodu i sve mu kaza.
