Exodus 5
1 And afterward Moses and Aaron have entered, and they say to Pharaoh, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Send My people away, and they keep a celebration for Me in the wilderness”;
Potem sta Mojzes in Aron vstopila in faraonu rekla: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Pusti moje ljudstvo oditi, da bodo v divjini lahko imeli praznovanje meni.‹«
2 and Pharaoh says, “Who [is] YHWH, that I listen to His voice to send Israel away? I have not known YHWH, and I also do not send Israel away.”
Faraon je rekel: »Kdo je Gospod, da bi ubogal njegov glas, da bi pustil Izraela oditi? Ne poznam Gospoda niti Izraelu ne bom pustil oditi.«
3 And they say, “The God of the Hebrews has met with us; please let us go a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to our God YHWH, lest He meet us with pestilence or with sword.”
Rekel je: »Bog Hebrejcev se je srečal z nami. Pusti nas oditi, prosimo te, tri dni potovanja v puščavo in žrtvujemo Gospodu, našemu Bogu, da on ne pade na nas s kužno boleznijo ali z mečem.«
4 And the king of Egypt says to them, “Why, Moses and Aaron, do you free the people from its works? Go to your burdens.”
Egiptovski kralj pa jima je rekel: »Zakaj vidva, Mojzes in Aron, pustita ljudstvo od njihovih del? Odidita k svojim bremenom.«
5 Pharaoh also says, “Behold, the people of the land [are] numerous now, and you have caused them to cease from their burdens!”
Faraon je rekel: »Glejta, ljudstva dežele je torej mnogo, vidva pa jim delata počitek pred njihovimi bremeni.«
6 And on that day Pharaoh commands the exactors among the people and its authorities, saying,
Faraon je istega dne zapovedal preddelavcem ljudstva in njihovim nadzornikom, rekoč:
7 “You do not add to give straw to the people for the making of the bricks as before—they go and have gathered straw for themselves;
»Ljudstvu ne boste več dajali slame, da delajo opeko, kakor poprej. Naj gredo in sami nabirajo slamo.
8 and you put on them the proper quantity of the bricks which they are making before, you do not diminish from it, for they are remiss, therefore they are crying, saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to our God;
Število opek, ki so jih naredili poprej, boste položili nanje. Ne boste zmanjšali od tega dolga, kajti brezdelni so, zato vpijejo, rekoč: ›Pojdimo in žrtvujmo našemu Bogu.‹
9 let the service be heavy on the men, and let them work at it, and not be dazzled by lying words.”
Več dela naj bo položenega na ljudi, da se bodo lahko trudili s tem in naj se ne ozirajo na prazne besede.«
10 And the exactors of the people, and its authorities, go out, and speak to the people, saying, “Thus said Pharaoh: I do not give you straw,
Preddelavci ljudstva so odšli ven in njihovi nadzorniki in ljudstvu spregovorili, rekoč: »Tako govori faraon: ›Ne bom vam dajal slame.
11 you—go, take straw for yourselves where you can find [it], for there is nothing diminished of your service.”
Pojdite, dobite slamo kjer jo lahko najdete, vendar dolg vašega dela ne bo zmanjšan.‹«
12 And the people are scattered over all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw,
Tako je bilo ljudstvo razkropljeno naokoli po vsej egiptovski deželi, da zbira strnišče namesto slame.
13 and the exactors are making haste, saying, “Complete your works, the matter of a day in its day, as when there is straw.”
Preddelavci so jih priganjali, rekoč: »Izpolnjujte svoja dela, svoje dnevne naloge, kakor ko je bila slama.«
14 And the authorities of the sons of Israel, whom the exactors of Pharaoh have placed over them, are beaten, saying, “Why have you not completed your portion in making brick as before, both yesterday and today?”
Nadzorniki Izraelovih otrok, ki so jih faraonovi preddelavci postavili nadnje, so bili pretepeni in zahtevali: »Zakaj niste izpolnili svoje naloge v izdelavi opek, tako včeraj in danes, kakor poprej?«
15 And the authorities of the sons of Israel come in and cry to Pharaoh, saying, “Why do you do thus to your servants?
Potem so nadzorniki Izraelovih otrok prišli in vpili k faraonu, rekoč: »Zakaj tako postopaš s svojimi služabniki?
16 Straw is not given to your servants, and they are saying to us, Make bricks, and behold, your servants are struck—and your people have sinned.”
Nobena slama ni dana tvojim služabnikom, oni pa nam pravijo: ›Delajte opeko.‹ Glej, tvoji služabniki so pretepeni, toda krivda je na tvojem lastnem ljudstvu.«
17 And he says, “Remiss—you are remiss, therefore you are saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to YHWH;
Toda rekel jim je: »Vi ste brezdelni, vi ste brezdelni, zato pravite: ›Pojdimo in naredimo žrtvovanje Gospodu.‹
18 and now, go, serve; and straw is not given to you, and you give the [required] measure of bricks.”
Pojdite torej sedaj in delajte, kajti slama vam ne bo dana, vendar boste izročili število opek.«
19 And the authorities of the sons of Israel see them in affliction, saying, “You do not diminish from your bricks; the matter of a day in its day.”
Nadzorniki Izraelovih otrok so videli, da so bili v zlem primeru, potem ko je bilo rečeno: »Ne boste zmanjšali dolga od opek svoje dnevne naloge.«
20 And they meet Moses and Aaron standing to meet them in their coming out from Pharaoh,
Srečali so Mojzesa in Arona, ki sta stala na poti, ko so prišli od faraona
21 and say to them, “YHWH look on you, and judge, because you have caused our fragrance to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants—to give a sword into their hand to slay us.”
in jima rekli: » Gospod naj pogleda na vaju in sodi, ker sta storila našemu okusu, da je preziran v faraonovih očeh in v očeh njegovih služabnikov, da položi meč v njihovo roko, da nas ubijejo.«
22 And Moses turns back to YHWH and says, “Lord, why have You done evil to this people? Why [is] this [that] You have sent me?
Mojzes se je vrnil h Gospodu ter rekel: »Gospod, zakaj si tako zlo ravnal s tem ljudstvom? Zakaj je to, da si me poslal?
23 And since I have come to Pharaoh to speak in Your Name, he has done evil to this people, and You have not delivered Your people at all.”
Kajti odkar sem prišel k faraonu, da govorim v tvojem imenu, je temu ljudstvu storil zlo niti sploh nisi osvobodil svojega ljudstva.«
