1 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: idi k Faraonu, jer sam ja uèinio da otvrdne srce njegovo i srce sluga njegovijeh, da uèinim ove znake svoje meðu njima,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go to the king [again]. I have made him and his officials stubborn [IDM]. I have done that in order that I would [have a good reason to] perform all these plagues among them,
2 I da pripovijedaš sinovima svojim i unucima svojim šta uèinih u Misiru i kakve znake svoje pokazah na njima, da biste znali da sam ja Gospod.
and also in order that you would [be able to] tell your children and your grandchildren how I caused the Egyptians to act very foolishly [when] I performed all these miracles. Then all of you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
3 I otide Mojsije i Aron k Faraonu, i rekoše mu: ovako veli Gospod Bog Jevrejski: dokle æeš se protiviti da se ne poniziš preda mnom? Pusti narod moj da mi posluži.
So Aaron and Moses/I went into the king’s [palace] and said to him, “Yahweh God, whom we Hebrews [worship], says this: ‘How long will you stubbornly refuse to do what I tell you [MTY]? Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert]
4 Jer ako neæeš pustiti naroda mojega, evo sjutra æu nanijeti skakavce na zemlju tvoju;
If you [keep] refusing to let them go, I warn you that tomorrow I will bring (locusts/[large flying insects called] locusts) into your country.
5 I pokriæe svu zemlju da se neæe vidjeti zemlje, i poješæe ostatak što se saèuvao, koji vam je ostao iza grada, i poješæe sva drveta što vam rastu u polju.
[They will completely cover the ground so that] you will not even be able to see the ground. They will eat everything that the hail did not [destroy]. They will eat [everything that is left on] the trees.
6 I napuniæe ih se kuæe tvoje i kuæe svijeh sluga tvojih i kuæe svijeh Misiraca, što nijesu vidjeli oci tvoji ni oci otaca tvojih, otkako su postali na zemlji do danas. I okrenuv se otide od Faraona.
They will fill your houses, and the houses of all your officials, and the houses of all [the rest of] the Egyptians. [There will be more locusts] than you or your parents or your grandparents have ever seen, from the time your ancestors first came to [this] land until the present time!’” Then he/I turned and [Aaron and] I left the king.
7 A sluge rekoše Faraonu: dokle æe nas taj muèiti? Pusti ih neka posluže Gospodu Bogu svojemu. Zar još ne vidiš gdje propade Misir?
The king’s officials said to him, “(How long is this man going to continue to bring disasters on us?/We must not let this man continue to cause trouble for us!) [RHQ] Let the [Israeli] men leave, in order that they may worship Yahweh, their god. (Do you not yet understand that [this man] has ruined Egypt?/You ought to realize by now that [this man] has ruined Egypt!)” [RHQ]
8 I dozvaše opet Mojsija i Arona pred Faraona, i reèe im: idite, poslužite Gospodu Bogu svojemu. A koji su što æe iæi?
So they brought Aaron and Moses/me back to the king. He said to them/us, “[All right], you can go and worship Yahweh your god. But who are the ones who will go?”
9 A Mojsije reèe: s djecom svojom i sa starcima svojim iæi æemo, sa sinovima svojim i sa kæerima svojim, sa stokom svojom sitnom i krupnom iæi æemo, jer imamo praznik Gospodnji.
Moses/I replied, “We [all] need to go, everyone, including those who are young and those who are old. We need to take our sons and our daughters and our flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of livestock], because we must have a festival to [honor] Yahweh.”
10 A on im reèe: tako bio Gospod s vama, kako æu vas ja pustiti s djecom vašom! Vidite da zlo mislite.
[Moses/I really did not intend that the Israelis would ever return to Egypt, and the king knew that also. So] the king replied [sarcastically], “[If you all leave], [it will be clear that] Yahweh has helped you, but I myself will never let you [take] your children [and your wives] when you go! It is clear that you are wickedly planning [not to return].
11 Neæe biti tako; nego vi ljudi idite i poslužite Gospodu, jer to ištete. I otjera ih od sebe Faraon.
So no, [I will not let you all go]. [The Israeli] men may go [and worship Yahweh], if that is what you want.” Then the king expelled them/us from [his palace].
12 Tada reèe Gospod Mojsiju: pruži ruku svoju na zemlju Misirsku, da doðu skakavci na zemlju Misirsku i pojedu sve bilje po zemlji, što god osta iza grada.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Reach out your hand as [though you were stretching it] over the land to welcome the locusts. They will come to the country of Egypt and eat every plant that is [left] in the land, every plant that the hail has not destroyed.”
13 I pruži Mojsije štap svoj na zemlju Misirsku, i Gospod navede ustoku na zemlju, te duva cijeli dan i cijelu noæ; a kad svanu, donese ustoka skakavce.
So Moses/I held out his/my stick [as though he/I was stretching it] over the whole land of Egypt. Then Yahweh caused a [strong] wind to blow from the east, and it blew over the land all that day and all that night. By the [next] morning, it had brought the locusts.
14 I doðoše skakavci na svu zemlju Misirsku, i popadaše po svijem krajevima Misirskim silni veoma, kakih prije nigda nije bilo niti æe kad biti onakih.
The locusts swarmed all over Egypt. It was larger than any swarm of locusts that had ever [been seen], and there will never be [a swarm of locusts like that] again.
15 I pokriše svu zemlju, da se zemlja ne viðaše, i pojedoše svu travu na zemlji i sav rod na drvetima, što osta iza grada, i ne osta ništa zeleno od drveta i od bilja poljskoga u svoj zemlji Misirskoj.
They covered the surface of the ground and made it [appear] black. They ate all the plants in the land and everything on the trees that had not been destroyed by the hail. Nothing that was green was left on any plant or on any tree, anywhere in Egypt.
16 Tada Faraon brže dozva Mojsija i Arona, i reèe: zgriješih Gospodu Bogu vašemu i vama.
The king quickly summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “I have sinned against Yahweh, your god, and against you [two].
17 Ali mi još sada samo oprosti grijeh moj, i molite se Gospodu Bogu svojemu da ukloni od mene samo ovu smrt.
So now I ask you to forgive me this one time [for having] sinned, and pray to Yahweh your god to stop [these locusts] [MTY] [from causing everything] to die.”
18 I otide Mojsije od Faraona, i pomoli se Gospodu.
They/We left the king, and Moses/I prayed to Yahweh.
19 I okrenu Gospod vjetar od zapada vrlo jak, koji uze skakavce i baci ih u Crveno More, i ne osta nijedan skakavac u cijeloj zemlji Misirskoj.
Then Yahweh changed the wind so that it blew [strongly] from the west, and it blew all the locusts into the Red Sea (OR, the Gulf of Suez). There was not one locust left anywhere in the country of Egypt.
20 Ali Gospod uèini te otvrdnu srce Faraonu, i ne pusti sinova Izrailjevijeh.
But Yahweh made the king stubborn [IDM] [again], and he did not let the Israeli people go.
21 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju: pruži ruku svoju k nebu, i biæe tama po zemlji Misirskoj taka da æe je pipati.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Reach your hand up toward the sky, in order that there will be darkness over all the land of Egypt, a darkness [so complete] that people will have to grope around [to know where to walk].”
22 I Mojsije pruži ruku svoju k nebu, i posta gusta tama po svoj zemlji Misirskoj za tri dana.
So Moses/I reached his/my hand toward the sky, and it became totally dark all over Egypt for three days [and nights].
23 Ne viðahu jedan drugoga, i niko se ne maèe s mjesta gdje bješe za tri dana; ali se kod svijeh sinova Izrailjevijeh vidjelo po stanovima njihovijem.
People could not see each other. No one left his house during that whole time. But there was light in the area where the Israeli people were living.
24 Tada Faraon dozva Mojsija, i reèe: idite, poslužite Gospodu; samo stoka vaša sitna i krupna neka ostane, a djeca vaša neka idu s vama.
The king summoned Moses/me and said, “All right, you may go and worship Yahweh. [Your wives and] your children may go with you. But your flocks of sheep and goats and your herds of cattle must remain here.”
25 A Mojsije reèe: treba da nam daš i što æemo prinijeti i sažeæi na žrtvu Gospodu Bogu svojemu;
But Moses/I replied, “[No], you must let us [take along the sheep and goats, in order] that we may have [some of them] to sacrifice and give as burned offerings to Yahweh, our God.
26 Zato i stoka naša nek ide s nama, da ne ostane ni papka, jer izmeðu nje treba da uzmemo èim æemo poslužiti Gospodu Bogu svojemu, a ne znamo kojim æemo poslužiti Gospodu dokle ne doðemo onamo.
Our livestock must also go with us; we are not going to leave one of them [SYN] behind. We must take them to worship Yahweh. We will not know [which animals to sacrifice] until we get to where we are going.”
27 Ali Gospod uèini te otvrdnu srce Faraonu, i ne htje ih pustiti.
But Yahweh made the king [continue to be] stubborn [IDM], and he would not let [the Israeli] people go.
28 I reèe mu Faraon: idi od mene, i èuvaj se da mi više ne doðeš na oèi, jer ako mi doðeš na oèi, poginuæeš.
The king said to me, “Get out of here! Make sure that you never come to see me [SYN] again! The day you see me again, [I will have] you executed!”
29 A Mojsije reèe: pravo si kazao; neæu ti više doæi na oèi.
Moses/I replied, “You are correct! You will never see me [SYN] again!”
