Izlazak 13
1 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 Posveti mi svakoga prvenca, što god otvora matericu u sinova Izrailjevijeh, i od ljudi i od stoke; jer je moje.
“Set apart all the firstborn males in order that they may belong to me. The firstborn males of the Israeli people and of their animals will be mine.”
3 I Mojsije reèe narodu: pamtite ovaj dan, u koji izidoste iz Misira, iz doma ropskoga, jer vas rukom krjepkom izvede Gospod odande; neka se dakle ne jede ništa s kvascem.
Moses/I said to the people, “Do not forget this day! This is the day that you are leaving Egypt. This is the day you [are freed from] being their slaves. Yahweh has brought you out of Egypt by his great power [MTY]. Do not eat any bread that has yeast in it [whenever you celebrate] this day.
4 Danas izlazite, mjeseca Aviva;
You are leaving Egypt on this day, which is the first day of the month that is [named] Abib.
5 Pa kad te Gospod uvede u zemlju Hananejsku i Hetejsku i Amorejsku i Jevejsku i Jevusejsku, za koju se zakleo ocima tvojim da æe ti je dati, zemlju u kojoj teèe mlijeko i med, tada da služiš službu ovu ovoga mjeseca;
Later, when Yahweh brings you into the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Hiv, and Jebus [now live], the land that he solemnly promised to give to you, a land that will be very good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY], you must celebrate this festival during this month [every year].
6 Sedam dana jedi hljebove prijesne, a sedmi dan neka je praznik Gospodnji.
For seven days the bread that you eat must not have any yeast in it. On the seventh day there must be a festival to [honor] Yahweh.
7 Hljebovi prijesni da se jedu sedam dana, i da se ne vidi u tebe ništa s kvascem, niti da se vidi u tebe kvasac u cijelom kraju tvom.
For seven days do not eat bread that has yeast in it. You should not have any yeast or bread made with yeast anywhere in your land.
8 I kazaæeš sinu svojemu u taj dan govoreæi: ovo je za ono što mi je uèinio Gospod kad sam izlazio iz Misira.
On the day [the festival starts], you must tell your children, ‘[We are doing this to remember] what Yahweh did for our ancestors when they left Egypt.
9 I neka ti bude kao znak na ruci tvojoj i kao spomen pred oèima tvojima, da ti zakon Gospodnji bude u ustima; jer te je rukom krjepkom izveo Gospod iz Misira.
This ritual will remind you how Yahweh brought your ancestors out of Egypt with his great power [MTY]. [The ritual will be like something] you tie on your forehead or on your wrist. It will remind you to recite to others what Yahweh has instructed you.
10 Zato vrši zakon ovaj na vrijeme, od godine do godine.
So you must celebrate this festival every year at the time [Yahweh] has appointed.’
11 I kad te uvede Gospod u zemlju Hananejsku, kao što se zakleo tebi i tvojim ocima, i da ti je,
Yahweh will bring you into the land where the descendants of Canaan live, just as he promised you and your ancestors that he would do. When he gives that land to you,
12 Odvajaæeš Gospodu što god otvora matericu, i od stoke tvoje što god otvora matericu, što je muško, da bude Gospodu.
you must dedicate to Yahweh the firstborn males of all your animals. These all will belong to Yahweh.
13 A svako magare prvenèe otkupi jagnjetom ili jaretom; ako li ga ne bi otkupio, slomi mu vrat. Ali svakoga prvenca èovjeèijega izmeðu sinova svojih otkupi.
You may keep the firstborn male donkeys, but you must buy them back by sacrificing a lamb as a substitute for the donkey. If you do not want to buy back the donkey, you must [kill it by] breaking its neck. You must also buy back every one of your own firstborn sons.
14 A kad te zapita sin tvoj unapredak govoreæi: šta je to? reci mu: rukom krjepkom izvede nas Gospod iz Misira, iz doma ropskoga.
In the future, when one of your children asks, ‘What does this mean?’, you must say to him, ‘Yahweh brought our ancestors out of Egypt with his great power [MTY], and freed us from being slaves there.
15 Jer kad otvrdnu Faraon, te nas ne htje pustiti, pobi Gospod sve prvence u zemlji Misirskoj od prvenca èovjeèijega do prvenca od stoke; zato prinosim Gospodu sve muško što otvora matericu, a svakoga prvenca sinova svojih otkupljujem.
The king of Egypt stubbornly refused to let them leave his country, so Yahweh killed all the firstborn males in Egypt, both the boys and the firstborn of their livestock. That is why we now sacrifice to Yahweh all the firstborn of our livestock, but we buy back our own firstborn sons.’
16 I to neka ti je kao znak na ruci i kao poèeonik meðu oèima tvojima, da nas je rukom krjepkom izveo Gospod iz Misira.
I repeat that this ritual will remind you about how Yahweh brought our [ancestors] out of Egypt by his great power [MTY]; it will be like something you tie on your wrist or on your forehead [to remind you of that].”
17 A kad Faraon pusti narod, ne odvede ih Bog putem k zemlji Filistejskoj, ako i bješe kraæi, jer Bog reèe: da se ne pokaje narod kad vidi rat, i ne vrati se u Misir.
When the king [of Egypt] let the [Israeli] people go, God did not lead them to go through the land of the Philistines. That was a shorter way, but God said, “It would be bad if my people change their minds when they realize that they will have to fight [the Philistines to take their land], and then [decide to] return to Egypt.”
18 Nego Bog zavede narod putem preko pustinje na Crvenom Moru. A vojnièkim redom izidoše sinovi Izrailjevi iz zemlje Misirske.
Instead, God led them to go around through the desert toward the Red Sea (OR, the Gulf of Suez). When the Israeli people left Egypt, they were carrying weapons to fight [their enemies].
19 I Mojsije uze kosti Josifove sa sobom; jer bješe zakleo sinove Izrailjeve rekavši: zaista æe vas pohoditi Bog, a tada iznesite kosti moje odavde sa sobom.
Moses/I [had them] take along the bones of Joseph with them/us, because Joseph long ago had made the Israeli people promise solemnly that they would do that. He had said to them, “God will enable your descendants to leave Egypt. When that happens, you must carry my bones with you.”
20 Tako otišavši iz Sohota stadoše u oko u Etamu, nakraj pustinje.
The Israeli people left Succoth and traveled to Etham, at the edge of the desert, and they set up their tents there.
21 A Gospod iðaše pred njima danju u stupu od oblaka vodeæi ih putem, a noæu u stupu od ognja svijetleæi im, da bi putovali danju i noæu.
[When they traveled] during the daytime, Yahweh went in front of them in a tall [white] cloud to show them the way. During the night, he went in front of them in a tall cloud that looked like a fire. By doing that, he enabled them to travel in the daytime and also at nighttime.
22 I ne uklanjaše ispred naroda stupa od oblaka danju ni stupa od ognja noæu.
The tall cloud did not leave them. It was always in front of them, as a bright white cloud in the daytime and like a fire at night.
