< Exodus 4 >
1 Moyses answeride, and seide, The comyns schulen not bileue to me, nether thei schulen here my vois; but thei schulen seie, The Lord apperide not to thee.
Mojsije uzvrati: “Ali ako mi ne povjeruju i ne poslušaju me, nego mi reknu: 'Jahve ti se nije objavio?'”
2 Therfor the Lord seide to hym, What is this that thou holdist in thin hond? Moises answeride, A yerde.
“Što ti je to u ruci?” - zapita ga Jahve. “Štap”, odgovori.
3 And the Lord seide, Caste it forth into erthe; and he castide forth, and it was turned in to a serpent, so that Moises fledde.
“Baci ga na zemlju!” - naredi mu Jahve. On ga baci na zemlju, a štap se pretvori u zmiju. Mojsije pred njom uzmače.
4 And the Lord seide, Holde forth thin hond, and take the tail therof; he stretchide forth, and helde, and it was turned in to a yerde.
Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Pruži ruku i uhvati je za rep.” I on seže rukom i uhvati je za rep, a ona opet postade štap u njegovoj ruci.
5 And the Lord seide, That thei bileue, that the Lord God of thi fadris apperide to thee, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.
“Tako moraju vjerovati da se Jahve, Bog njihovih otaca, Bog Abrahamov, Bog Izakov i Bog Jakovljev, tebi objavio.”
6 And the Lord seide eft, Putte thin hond in to thi bosum; and whanne he hadde put it in to the bosum, he brouyte forth it leprouse, at the licnesse of snow.
Još mu Jahve rekne: “Uvuci ruku u njedra.” On uvuče ruku u njedra. Kad ju je izvukao, gle - ruka mu gubava, bijela kao snijeg.
7 The Lord seide, Withdrawe thin hond in to thi bosum; he withdrow, and brouyte forth eft, and it was lijc the tother fleisch.
“Stavi opet ruku u njedra!” - naredi mu Jahve. On opet ruku u njedra. Kad ju je iz njedara izvukao, gle - opet je bila kao i ostali dio tijela.
8 The Lord seide, If thei schulen not bileue to thee, nether schulen here the word of the formere signe, thei schulen bileue to the word of the signe suynge;
“Ako ti ne povjeruju i ne prihvate poruku prvoga znamenja, povjerovat će poruci drugoga znamenja.
9 that if thei bileuen not sotheli to these twei signes, nether heren thi vois, take thou watir of the flood, and schedde out it on the drie lond, and what euer thing thou schalt drawe vp of the flood, it schal be turned in to blood.
A ako ih oba ova znamenja ne uvjere pa ti ne povjeruju, zahvati vode iz Rijeke i prolij je po suhu. Voda što je budeš iz Rijeke uzeo na suhu će se u krv pretvoriti.”
10 Moises seide, Lord, Y biseche, Y am `not eloquent fro yistirdai and the thridde dai ago; and sithen thou hast spokun to thi seruaunt, Y am of more lettid and slowere tunge.
“Oprosti, Gospodine!” - nastavi Mojsije Jahvi. “Ja nikad nisam bio čovjek rječit; ni prije ni sada kad govoriš svome sluzi. Ja sam u govoru spor, a na jeziku težak.”
11 The Lord seide to hym, Who made the mouth of man, ether who made a doumb man and `deef, seynge and blynd? whether not Y?
“Tko je dao čovjeku usta?” - reče mu Jahve. “Tko ga čini nijemim i gluhim; tko li mu vid daje ili ga osljepljuje? Zar to nisam ja, Jahve!
12 Therfor go thou, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and Y schal teche thee what thou schalt speke.
Idi, dakle! Ja ću biti s tobom kad budeš govorio i kazivat ću ti što ćeš govoriti.”
13 And he seide, Lord, Y biseche, sende thou whom thou schalt sende.
“Oprosti, Gospodine”, opet će Mojsije, “ne bi li poslao koga drugoga!”
14 And the Lord was wrooth ayens Moises, and seide, Y woot, that Aaron, thi brother, of the lynage of Leuy, is eloquent; lo! he schal go out in to thi comyng, and he schal se thee, and schal be glad in herte.
Razljuti se Jahve na Mojsija i reče: “Zar Aron, Levijevac, nije tvoj brat? Znam da je on vrlo rječit. Evo, baš ti izlazi u susret. Kad te vidi, obradovat će se u srcu.
15 Speke thou to hym, and putte thou my wordis in his mouth, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and in the mouth of hym; and Y schal schewe to you what ye owen to do.
Ti govori njemu i u njegova usta stavljaj riječi. Ja ću biti i s tobom i s njime dok budete govorili; kazivat ću obojici što ćete raditi.
16 He schal speke for thee to the puple, and he schal be thi mouth; forsothe thou schalt be to him in these thingis, that perteynen to God.
Neka on mjesto tebe govori narodu. Tako, on će tebi biti mjesto usta, a ti ćeš njemu biti mjesto Boga.
17 Also take thou this yerde in thin hond, in which thou schalt do myraclis.
Uzmi ovaj štap u ruku. Njim izvodi znamenja.”
18 Moises yede, and turnede ayen to Jetro, his wyues fadir, and seide to hym, Y schal go, and turne ayen to my britheren in to Egipt, that Y se, whether thei lyuen yit. To whom Jetro seide, Go thou in pees.
Zatim se Mojsije vrati svome tastu Jitru te mu reče: “Pusti me da se vratim braći u Egipat da vidim jesu li još na životu.” “Pođi u miru!” - reče Jitro Mojsiju.
19 Therfor the Lord seide to Moyses in Madian, Go thou, and turne ayen into Egipt; for alle thei ben deed that souyten thi lijf.
I Jahve reče Mojsiju u Midjanu: “Vrati se u Egipat, jer su pomrli svi ljudi koji su tražili tvoj život.”
20 Moises took his wijf, and hise sones, and puttide hem on an asse, and he turnede ayen in to Egipt, and bar the yerde of God in his hond.
Tako Mojsije posadi na magarca svoju ženu i sinove i ode u zemlju egipatsku. A u ruku Mojsije uze Božji štap.
21 And the Lord seide to hym turnynge ayen in to Egipt, Se, that thou do alle wondris, whiche Y haue put in thin hond, bifore Farao; Y schal make hard his herte, and he schal not delyuere the puple; and thou schalt seie to hym,
Jahve opet reče Mojsiju: “Kad se vratiš u Egipat, pobrini se da pred faraonom izvedeš sva čudesa za koja sam ti dao moć, premda ću ja tvrdim učiniti njegovo srce, tako te neće pustiti narod da ode.
22 The Lord seith these thingis, My firste gendrid sone is Israel;
Tada reci faraonu: 'Ovako kaže Jahve: Izrael je moj prvorođenac.
23 Y seide to thee, delyuere thou my sone, that he serue me, and thou noldist delyuere hym; lo! Y schal sle thi firste gendrid sone.
Tražim od tebe da mi pustiš sina da mi iskaže štovanje. Ako odbiješ da ga pustiš, ja ću ubiti tvoga prvorođenca.'”
24 And whanne Moises was in the weie, in an yn, the Lord cam to him, and wolde sle hym.
Kad se na putu Mojsije zaustavi da prenoći, navali na nj Jahve da ga ubije.
25 Sefora took anoon a moost scharp stoon, and circumcidide the yerde of hir sone; and sche towchide `the feet of Moises, and seide, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me.
Ali Sipora pograbi oštar kremen, obreza svoga sina i kožicom se dotakne Mojsijevih nogu: “Zaista si mi ti krvav muž”, reče.
26 And he lefte hym, aftir that sche hadde seid, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me for circumcisioun.
I Jahve ga pusti. Ona je to zbog obrezanja rekla “krvav muž”.
27 Forsothe the Lord seide to Aaron, Go thou in to the comyng of Moises in to deseert; which yede ayens Moises in to the hil of God, and kisside him.
Onda rekne Jahve Aronu: “Zaputi se prema pustinji, u susret Mojsiju!” On ode i s njim se sastane na Božjem brdu. Poljubi ga.
28 And Moises telde to Aaron alle the wordis of the Lord, for whiche he hadde sent Moises; and `he telde the myraclis, whiche the Lord hadde comaundid.
Mojsije pripovjedi Aronu sve što mu je Jahve povjerio i sva znamenja koja mu je naredio da ih učini.
29 And thei camen togidere, and gaderiden alle the eldere men of the sones of Israel.
Sad odu Mojsije i Aron i skupe sve starješine Izraelaca.
30 And Aaron spak alle the wordis, whiche the Lord hadde seid to Moises, and he dide the signes bifore the puple;
Aron izloži sve što je Jahve govorio Mojsiju, a Mojsije izvede znamenja naočigled naroda.
31 and the puple bileuede; and thei herden, that the Lord hadde visitid the sones of Israel, and that he hadde biholde the turment of hem; and thei worschipiden lowe.
Narod je bio uvjeren, i pošto čuše da je Jahve pohodio Izraelce i pogledao na njihove jade, popadaše ničice i pokloniše se.
