Exodus 11
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “There is still one more plague that I will bring on Pharaoh and Egypt. After that, he will let you go from here. When he finally lets you go, he will drive you away completely.
“Još ću samo jednom nedaćom udariti faraona i Egipat”, reče Jahve Mojsiju. “Poslije toga pustit će vas odavde. I više: sam će vas odavde potjerati.
2 Instruct the people that every man and woman is to ask of his or her neighbor for articles of silver and articles of gold.”
Kaži svijetu neka svaki čovjek ište od svoga susjeda i svaka žena od svoje susjede srebrnih i zlatnih dragocjenosti.”
3 Now Yahweh had made the Egyptians eager to please the Israelites. Moreover, the man Moses was very impressive in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and the people of Egypt.
Jahve učini te Egipćani bijahu naklonjeni narodu. Sam Mojsije postane vrlo uvažen u egipatskoj zemlji, u očima faraonovih službenika i u očima naroda.
4 Moses said, “Yahweh says this: 'About midnight I will go throughout Egypt.
A onda Mojsije navijesti: “Ovako poručuje Jahve: 'O ponoći proći ću Egiptom.
5 All the firstborn in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the handmill grinding it, and to all the firstborn of the cattle.
Svaki će prvorođenac u egipatskoj zemlji umrijeti, od prvorođenca faraonova, koji bi imao sjediti na njegovu prijestolju, do prvorođenca ropkinje koja se nalazi uz mlinski kamen; a uginut će i sve prvine od stoke.
6 Then there will be a great wailing throughout all the land of Egypt, such as has never been nor ever will be again.
U svoj će zemlji egipatskoj nastati veliki jauk, kakva nije bilo niti će kad poslije biti.
7 But not even a dog will bark against any of the people of Israel, against either man or beast. In this way you will know that I am treating the Egyptians and the Israelites differently.'
Među Izraelcima ni pas neće zalajati na živo stvorenje: ni na čovjeka ni na životinju.' Po tome ćete znati da Jahve luči Izraelca od Egipćanina.
8 All these servants of yours, Pharaoh, will come down to me and bow down to me. They will say, 'Go, you and all the people who follow you!' After that I will go out.” Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.
Onda će svi ovi tvoji dvorani k meni doći, preda me se baciti i vikati: Nosi se i ti i sav puk koji za tobom ide! Poslije toga ću otići.” I gnjevan ode od faraona.
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you. This is so that I will do many amazing things in the land of Egypt.”
“Neće vas faraon poslušati”, reče Jahve Mojsiju, “a to da bi se umnožila moja znamenja u zemlji egipatskoj.”
10 Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and Pharaoh did not let the people of Israel go out of his land.
Mojsije i Aron izveli su sva ta znamenja pred faraonom, ali je Jahve okorio srce faraonu, tako te on nije puštao Izraelaca da odu iz njegove zemlje.
