Izlazak 3

1 A Mojsije pasijaše stado Jotoru tastu svojemu, svešteniku Madijamskomu, i odvede stado preko pustinje, i doðe na goru Božiju Horiv.

Now, Moses, was shepherding the flock of Jethro his father-in-law priest of Midian, —so he led forth the flock behind the desert, and came in unto the mountain of God to Horeb.

2 I javi mu se anðeo Gospodnji u plamenu ognjenom iz kupine. I pogleda, a to kupina ognjem gori a ne sagorijeva.

Then appeared the messenger of Yahweh unto him, in a flame of fire from the midst of the thorn-bush, —so he looked and lo! the thorn-bush burning with fire and yet the thorn-bush, was not consumed.

3 I Mojsije reèe: idem da vidim tu utvaru veliku, zašto ne sagorijeva kupina.

And, Moses said, Let me turn aside, pray, and see this great sight, —why the thorn-bush, doth not burn up.

4 A Gospod kad ga vidje gdje ide da vidi, viknu ga Bog iz kupine, i reèe: Mojsije! Mojsije! A on odgovori: evo me.

And Yahweh saw, that he turned aside to see, —so God called unto him out of the midst of the thorn-bush, and said—Moses! Moses! And he said—Behold me!

5 A Bog reèe: ne idi ovamo. Izuj obuæu svoju s nogu svojih, jer je mjesto gdje stojiš sveta zemlja.

And he said—Do not draw nigh hither, —put off thy sandals from thy feet, for, the place whereon thou art standing is holy ground.

6 Još reèe: ja sam Bog oca tvojega, Bog Avramov, Bog Isakov i Bog Jakovljev. A Mojsije zakloni lice svoje, jer ga strah bijaše gledati u Boga.

And he said—I, am the God of thy father, God of Abraham, God of Isaac and God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.

7 I reèe Gospod: dobro vidjeh nevolju naroda svojega u Misiru, i èuh viku njegovu od zla koje mu èine nastojnici, jer poznah muku njegovu.

Then said Yahweh, I have, seen, the humiliation of my people, who are in Egypt, —and their outcry, have I heard, by reason of their task-masters, for I know their pains;

8 I siðoh da ga izbavim iz ruku Misirskih, i da ga izvedem iz one zemlje u zemlju dobru i prostranu, u zemlju gdje mlijeko i med teèe, na mjesto gdje su Hananeji i Heteji i Amoreji i Ferezeji i Jeveji i Jevuseji.

therefore have I come down to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptians, and to take them up out of that land, into a land good and large, into a land flowing with milk and honey, —into the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite, and the Amorite and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

9 I sada evo vika sinova Izrailjevijeh doðe preda me, i vidjeh muku, kojom ih muèe Misirci.

Now, therefore, lo! the outcry of the sons of Israel, hath come in unto me, —moreover also, I have seen the oppression, wherewith the Egyptians are oppressing them.

10 Sada hajde da te pošljem k Faraonu, da izvedeš narod moj, sinove Izrailjeve, iz Misira.

Now, therefore, come thou! that I may send thee unto Pharaoh, —and bring thou forth my people—the sons of Israel—out of Egypt.

11 A Mojsije reèe Bogu: ko sam ja da idem k Faraonu i da izvedem sinove Izrailjeve iz Misira?

And Moses said unto God, Who am, I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, —and that I should bring forth the sons of Israel out of Egypt?

12 A Bog mu reèe: ja æu biti s tobom, i ovo neka ti bude znak da sam te ja poslao: kad izvedeš narod iz Misira, služiæete Bogu na ovoj gori.

And he said—I will be with thee, and, this, to thee, [shall be] the sign, that, I have sent thee, —When thou bringest forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall do service unto God, upon this mountain.

13 A Mojsije reèe Bogu: evo, kad otidem k sinovima Izrailjevijem, pa im reèem: Bog otaca vaših posla me k vama, ako mi reku: kako mu je ime? šta æu im kazati?

And Moses said unto God—Lo! as surely as, I, go in unto the sons of Israel, and say unto them, The God of your fathers, hath sent me unto you, So surely will they say unto me—What is his name? What shall I say unto them?

14 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: ja sam onaj što jest. I reèe: tako æeš kazati sinovima Izrailjevijem: koji jest, on me posla k vama.

And God said unto Moses, I Will Become whatsoever I please, And he said—Thus, shalt thou say to the sons of Israel, I Will Become hath sent me unto you.

15 I opet reèe Bog Mojsiju: ovako kaži sinovima Izrailjevijem: Gospod Bog otaca vaših, Bog Avramov, Bog Isakov i Bog Jakovljev posla me k vama; to je ime moje dovijeka, i to je spomen moj od koljena na koljeno.

And God said yet further unto Moses—Thus shalt thou say unto the sons of Israel, Yahweh God of your fathers. God of Abraham God of Isaac and God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you. This, is my name to times age-abiding, And, this, my memorial to generation after generation.

16 Idi, i skupi starješine Izrailjske, pa im reci: Gospod Bog otaca vaših javi mi se, Bog Avramov, Isakov i Jakovljev, govoreæi: doista obidoh vas, i vidjeh kako vam je u Misiru.

Go—and thou shalt gather together the elders of Israel and shalt say unto them-Yahweh God of your fathers, hath appeared unto me, the God of Abraham Isaac, and Jacob saying, —I am, concerned, for you, and for what is done to you in Egypt;

17 Pa rekoh: izvešæu vas iz nevolje Misirske u zemlju Hananejsku i Hetejsku i Amorejsku i Ferezejsku i Jevejsku i Jevusejsku, u zemlju gdje teèe mlijeko i med.

therefore do I say—I will bring you up out of the humiliation of Egypt, into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite, and the Amorite and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, —into a land flowing with milk and honey.

18 I oni æe poslušati glas tvoj; pa æeš ti i starješine Izrailjske otiæi k caru Misirskom, i reæi æete mu: Gospod Bog Jevrejski srete nas, pa ti se molimo da izidemo tri dana hoda u pustinju da prinesemo žrtvu Gospodu Bogu svojemu.

So will they hearken to thy voice, —and thou shalt go in—thou, and the elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt and ye shall say unto him—Yahweh, God of the Hebrews, hath fallen in with us, Now, therefore let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the desert, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh, our God.

19 A ja znam da vam neæe dopustiti car Misirski da izidete bez ruke krjepke.

But, I, know, that the king of Egypt will not suffer you to go, —not even by a firm hand.

20 Ali æu pružiti ruku svoju, i udariæu Misir svijem èudesima svojim, koja æu uèiniti u njemu: i poslije æe vas pustiti.

So then I will put forth my hand and smite Egypt, with all my wonders, which I will do in the midst thereof, —and, after that, he will send you forth.

21 I uèiniæu da narod naðe ljubav u Misiraca, pa kad poðete, neæete poæi prazni;

Thus will I give favour to this people in the eyes of the Egyptians, —so shall it come to pass that when ye do go, ye shall not go empty;

22 Nego æe svaka žena zaiskati u susjede svoje i u domaæice svoje nakita srebrnoga i nakita zlatnoga i haljina; i metnuæete na sinove svoje i na kæeri svoje, i oplijeniæete Misir.

but every woman shall ask of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold and mantles, —and ye shall put them upon your sons and upon your daughters, so shall ye spoil the Egyptians.
