Exodus 5
1 And after they went Moses and Aaron and they said to Pharaoh thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel let go people my so they may celebrate a festival to me in the wilderness.
Sesudah itu, Musa dan Harun pergi menghadap raja Mesir untuk berbicara kepadanya, “TUHAN Allah Israel berkata, ‘Biarkanlah umat-Ku pergi, agar mereka dapat mengadakan perayaan bagi-Ku di padang belantara.’”
2 And he said Pharaoh who? [is] Yahweh that I will listen to voice his by letting go Israel not I know Yahweh and also Israel not I will let go.
Tetapi raja Mesir menjawab, “Siapakah ‘Tuhan’ itu sehingga saya harus mematuhi perintahnya dan membiarkan orang Israel pergi? Saya tidak mengenal ‘Tuhan’, dan saya juga tidak akan membiarkan orang Israel pergi!”
3 And they said [the] God of the Hebrews he has met with us let us go please a journey of three days in the wilderness and let us sacrifice to Yahweh God our lest he should fall on us with pestilence or with the sword.
Lalu mereka berkata, “Allah Israel sudah menjumpai kami. Kami mohon, izinkanlah kami pergi dan melakukan perjalanan selama tiga hari ke padang belantara untuk mempersembahkan kurban kepada TUHAN Allah kami, agar Dia tidak menghukum kami dengan wabah penyakit atau perang.”
4 And he said to them [the] king of Egypt why? O Moses and Aaron are you causing to refrain the people from work its go to forced labor your.
Namun, raja Mesir berkata kepada mereka, “Hei, Musa dan Harun, mengapa kalian membawa-bawa para budak? Mereka harus tetap bekerja!
5 And he said Pharaoh here! [is] many now [the] people of the land and you have caused to cease them from forced labor their.
Jumlah bangsamu sudah sangat banyak, dan sekarang kalian sengaja hendak membuat mereka berhenti bekerja!”
6 And he commanded Pharaoh on the day that the taskmasters over the people and foremen its saying.
Hari itu juga, raja Mesir memerintahkan para kepala mandor Mesir dan mandor Israel dengan berkata,
7 Not you will repeat! to give straw to the people to make bricks the bricks as yesterday three days ago they let them go and they may gather for themselves straw.
“Mulai sekarang, kalian tidak boleh memberikan jerami kepada budak-budak itu untuk membuat batu bata seperti sebelumnya. Biarlah mereka pergi mengumpulkan jerami sendiri.
8 And [the] measurement of the bricks which they [were] making yesterday three days ago you will place on them not you will diminish from it for [are] idle they there-fore they [are] crying out saying let us go let us sacrifice to God our.
Tetapi pastikan bahwa jumlah batu bata yang mereka hasilkan dalam sehari tetap sama seperti sebelumnya. Mereka itu pemalas! Itulah sebabnya mereka menuntut untuk pergi mempersembahkan kurban kepada dewa mereka.
9 Let it be heavy the labor on the men so they may work in it and may not them pay attention to words of falsehood.
Paksalah mereka bekerja lebih keras lagi, supaya mereka sibuk dengan pekerjaan sehingga tidak ada waktu untuk mendengarkan omong kosong itu.”
10 And they went out [the] taskmasters of the people and foremen its and they said to the people saying thus he says Pharaoh not I [am] giving to you straw.
Maka semua kepala mandor Mesir dan mandor Israel pergi dan berkata kepada umat Israel, “Raja sudah menetapkan bahwa dia tidak akan menyediakan jerami lagi untuk pembuatan batu bata.
11 You go acquire for yourselves straw from where you will find [it] for not [is] diminished from labor your anything.
Pergilah mencari jerami sendiri, terserah dari mana saja, tetapi kalian harus tetap menghasilkan batu bata sebanyak sebelumnya, tidak boleh berkurang sedikit pun!”
12 And it scattered the people in all [the] land of Egypt to gather stubble for the straw.
Jadi, umat Israel menyebar untuk mencari jerami ke seluruh negeri Mesir.
13 And the taskmasters [were] pressing [them] saying complete work your a matter of a day in day its just as when was the straw.
Dan para kepala mandor Mesir menekan mereka dengan berkata, “Selesaikan pekerjaan harian kalian sama seperti dulu waktu jerami masih disediakan.”
14 And they were struck [the] foremen of [the] people of Israel whom they had appointed over them [the] taskmasters of Pharaoh saying why? not have you completed prescribed portion your by making bricks as yesterday three days ago neither yesterday nor this day.
Para kepala mandor Mesir memukuli mandor-mandor Israel, yang diberi tanggung jawab atas pekerjaan umat Israel. Kata mereka, “Kenapa kamu tidak menghasilkan batu bata sebanyak kemarin?!”
15 And they went [the] foremen of [the] people of Israel and they cried out to Pharaoh saying why? are you doing thus to servants your.
Lalu para mandor Israel menghadap raja dan memohon, “Yang Mulia, mengapa engkau memperlakukan kami, hamba-hambamu, seperti ini?
16 Straw not [is being] given to servants your and bricks [people are] saying to us make and there! servants your [are] being struck and you have sinned people your.
Sekarang kami tidak diberi jerami, tetapi kami tetap dituntut membuat batu bata. Rakyatmu sendiri yang bersalah! Mengapa kami yang harus dipukuli?!”
17 And he said [are] idle you idle there-fore you [are] saying let us go let us sacrifice to Yahweh.
Namun raja menjawab, “Pemalas! Kalian memang malas! Karena itu kalian terus berkata, ‘Izinkan kami pergi menyembah dewa kami’ sebagai alasan untuk tidak bekerja!
18 And now go work and straw not it will be given to you and [the] measurement of bricks you will give.
Pergi dan kembalilah bekerja! Jerami tetap tidak akan disediakan untuk kalian, tetapi kalian harus memenuhi jumlah batu bata yang sama seperti sebelumnya.”
19 And they saw [the] foremen of [the] people of Israel themselves in trouble saying not you will diminish from bricks your a matter of a day in day its.
Mendengar perintah itu, yakni bahwa jumlah batu bata yang harus mereka penuhi tetap sama dan tidak dikurangi, para mandor Israel pun menyadari betapa berat masalah yang kini mereka hadapi.
20 And they met Moses and Aaron standing to meet them when came out they from with Pharaoh.
Sesudah pertemuan dengan raja Mesir, mandor-mandor Israel itu menemui Musa dan Harun yang sedang menunggu mereka keluar.
21 And they said to them may he look Yahweh on you and may he judge that you have made stink odor our in [the] eyes of Pharaoh and in [the] eyes of servants his to put a sword in hand their to kill us.
Kata mereka kepada Musa dan Harun, “Gara-gara kalian, kami semakin dibenci oleh raja dan para pejabatnya! Biarlah TUHAN mengadili dan menghukum kalian berdua! Akibat perbuatanmu, matilah kami!”
22 And he returned Moses to Yahweh and he said O Lord why? have you done harm to the people this why? this did you send me.
Musa kembali menghadap TUHAN dan berkata, “Ya Penguasaku, mengapa Engkau menambah masalah kepada umat-Mu? Untuk apa Engkau mengutus aku?
23 And from then I went to Pharaoh to speak in name your he has done harm to the people this and certainly not you have delivered people your.
Sejak aku menghadap raja dan menyampaikan pesan-Mu, dia malah semakin keras menindas umat-Mu dan Engkau tidak melakukan apa pun untuk menolong mereka!”
