Exodus 19
1 In the third month after the children of Israel had gone forth out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
V tretjem mesecu, ko so Izraelovi otroci odšli iz egiptovske dežele, istega dne, so prišli v Sinajsko divjino.
2 When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they camped in the wilderness; and there Israel camped before the mountain.
Kajti odšli so iz Refidíma in prišli v sinajsko puščavo in se utaborili v divjini in tam je Izrael taboril pred goro.
3 Moses went up to God, and God called to him out of the mountain, saying, "This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
Mojzes je odšel gor k Bogu in Gospod je zaklical k njemu z gore, rekoč: »Tako boš rekel Jakobovi hiši in povedal Izraelovim otrokom:
4 'You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to myself.
›Videli ste, kaj sem storil Egipčanom in kako sem vas nosil na orljih perutih in vas privedel k sebi.
5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
Zdaj torej, če boste zares poslušali moj glas in se držali moje zaveze, potem mi boste izvoljen zaklad nad vsemi ljudstvi, kajti vsa zemlja je moja,
6 and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel."
vi pa mi boste kraljestvo duhovnikov in svet narod.‹ To so besede, ki jih boš govoril Izraelovim otrokom.«
7 Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which God commanded him.
Mojzes je prišel ter dal poklicati starešine ljudstva in pred njihove obraze položil vse te besede, ki mu jih je Gospod zapovedal.
8 All the people answered together, and said, "All that God has spoken we will do." Moses reported the words of the people to God.
Vse ljudstvo je skupaj odgovorilo ter reklo: »Vse, kar je Gospod govoril, bomo storili.« In Mojzes je besede ljudstva ponovil Gospodu.
9 The LORD said to Moses, "Look, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever." Moses told the words of the people to the LORD.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Glej, k tebi pridem v gostem oblaku, da bo ljudstvo lahko slišalo, ko govorim s teboj in ti verjelo na veke.« In Mojzes je besede ljudstva povedal Gospodu.
10 The LORD said to Moses, "Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Pojdi k ljudstvu in posvečuj jih danes in jutri in naj si operejo svoja oblačila
11 and be ready against the third day; for on the third day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
in bodite pripravljeni za tretji dan, kajti tretji dan bo Gospod prišel dol, v očeh vsega ljudstva, na goro Sinaj.
12 You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, 'Be careful that you do not go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
Ti pa boš ljudstvu postavil meje naokoli, rekoč: ›Pazite se, da ne greste gor na goro ali se dotaknete njene meje. Kdorkoli se dotakne gore, bo zagotovo usmrčen.
13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain."
Niti roka se ga ne bo dotaknila, temveč naj bo zagotovo kamnan ali prestreljen; bodisi bo to žival ali človek, naj ta ne živi. Ko zadoni trobljenje naj pridejo h gori.‹«
14 Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
Mojzes je odšel dol z gore k ljudstvu in ljudstvo posvetil, in ti so si oprali svoja oblačila.
15 He said to the people, "Be ready by the third day. Do not have sexual relations with a woman."
Ljudstvu je rekel: »Bodite pripravljeni na tretji dan. Ne približujte se k svojim ženam.«
16 It happened on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
Na tretji dan se je zjutraj pripetilo, da so bila grmenja in bliski in na gori gost oblak in silno glasen zvok šofarja, tako da je vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo v taboru, trepetalo.
17 Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
Mojzes je ljudstvo privedel iz tabora, da se sreča z Bogom. Stali so pri spodnjem delu gore.
18 And Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because God descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
Gora Sinaj je bila povsem v dimu, ker se je Gospod nanjo spustil v ognju in njen dim se je vzpenjal kakor dim iz talilne peči in celotna gora se je silno tresla.
19 When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
Ko je glas šofarja zategnjeno donel in postajal glasnejši in glasnejši, je Mojzes spregovoril in Bog mu je odgovoril z glasom.
20 The LORD came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. The LORD called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
Gospod je prišel dol na goro Sinaj, na vrh gore in Gospod je Mojzesa poklical gor na vrh gore in Mojzes je odšel gor.
21 God said to Moses, "Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to God to look, and many of them perish.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Pojdi dol, naroči ljudstvu, da se ne bi prebili h Gospodu, da bi strmeli in se mnogi izmed njih pogubijo.
22 Let the priests also, who come near to God, sanctify themselves, or the LORD will break out against them."
Naj se tudi duhovniki, ki pridejo bliže h Gospodu, posvétijo, da ne bi Gospod izbruhnil nad njimi.«
23 Moses said to God, "The people can't come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, 'Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.'"
Mojzes pa je rekel Gospodu: »Ljudstvo se ne more povzpeti na goro Sinaj, kajti zapovedal si nam, rekoč: ›Postavi meje okoli gore in jo posvéti.‹«
24 The LORD said to him, "Go down and you shall bring Aaron up with you, but do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to God, or he will break out against them."
Gospod mu je rekel: »Proč, spusti se in prišel boš gor, ti in Aron s teboj. Toda duhovniki in ljudstvo naj se ne prebijejo, da pridejo h Gospodu, da ne bi nad njimi izbruhnil.«
25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
Tako je Mojzes odšel dol k ljudstvu in jim spregovoril.
