Izlazak 32
1 A narod vidjevši gdje Mojsije za dugo ne slazi s gore, skupi se narod pred Arona, i rekoše mu: hajde, naèini nam bogove, koji æe iæi pred nama, jer tome Mojsiju koji nas izvede iz zemlje Misirske ne znamo šta bi.
[(Moses/I) stayed on top of the mountain a long time]. When the people realized that he/I was not returning quickly, they gathered near Aaron and said to him, “We do not know what has happened to that man Moses who brought us here out of Egypt. So quickly, make us ([an idol/a statue of a god]) who will lead us!”
2 A Aron im reèe: poskidajte zlatne oboce što su u ušima žena vaših, sinova vaših i kæeri vaših, i donesite mi.
Aaron replied to them, “All right, [I will do that, but] tell your wives and your sons and your daughters to take off all their gold earrings and bring them to me.”
3 I poskida sav narod zlatne oboce što im bijahu u ušima, i donesoše Aronu.
So the people did that. They took off all their gold earrings and brought them to Aaron.
4 A on uzev iz ruku njihovijeh, sali u kalup, i naèini tele saliveno. I rekoše: ovo su bogovi tvoji, Izrailju, koji te izvedoše iz zemlje Misirske.
He took all those gold earrings and melted them in a fire. He [poured the gold into a mold and] made a statue that looked like a young bull. The people saw it and said, “This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from the land of Egypt!”
5 A kad to vidje Aron, naèini oltar pred njim; i povika Aron, i reèe: sjutra je praznik Gospodnji.
When Aaron saw [what was happening], he built an altar in front of the [statue of the] young bull. Then he announced, “Tomorrow we will have a festival to honor Yahweh!”
6 I sjutradan ustavši rano prinesoše žrtve paljenice i žrtve zahvalne; i posjeda narod, te jedoše i piše, a poslije ustaše da se igraju.
So the people got up early the next morning and brought animals to kill and burn as sacrifices on the altar. They also brought sacrifices to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. Then they sat down to eat and drink [wine]. Then they got up and started dancing in a very immoral way.
7 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: idi, siði, jer se pokvari tvoj narod, koji si izveo iz zemlje Misirske.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back down from the mountain, because your people, the ones that you brought up here from Egypt, have [already] (become very depraved/wicked)!
8 Brzo zaðoše s puta, koji sam im zapovjedio; naèiniše sebi tele liveno, i pokloniše mu se, i prinesoše mu žrtvu, i rekoše: ovo su bogovi tvoji, Izrailju, koji te izvedoše iz zemlje Misirske.
They have already (left the road that I showed them/stopped obeying me)! They have made [a statue of] a young bull from melted gold. They have worshiped it and offered sacrifices to it. And they are saying, ‘This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from Egypt!’”
9 Još reèe Gospod Mojsiju: pogledah narod ovaj, i eto je narod tvrda vrata.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I have seen that these people are very stubborn.
10 I sada pusti me, da se raspali gnjev moj na njih i da ih istrijebim; ali od tebe æu uèiniti narod velik.
I am very angry with them, and so I am going to get rid of them. Do not try to stop me! Then I will cause you and your descendants to become a great nation.”
11 A Mojsije se zamoli Gospodu Bogu svojemu, i reèe: zašto se, Gospode, raspaljuje gnjev tvoj na narod tvoj, koji si izveo iz zemlje Misirske silom velikom i rukom krjepkom?
But Moses/I pleaded with his/my God, Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh, (you should not be very angry with your people!/why are you so angry with your people [RHQ]?) These are the people whom you rescued from Egypt with very great power [MTY, DOU]!
12 Zašto da govore Misirci i reku: na zlo ih izvede, da ih pobije po planinama i da ih istrijebi sa zemlje? Povrati se od gnjeva svojega, i požali narod svoj oda zla.
Do not [do anything that would] allow the people of Egypt to say, ‘Their god led them out from our country, but [he did that] only [because he wanted] to kill them in the mountains and get rid of them completely [RHQ]!’ Stop being so angry! (Change your mind/Do not do what you have told me that you will do)! Do not do to your people this terrible thing [that you have just said that you will do]
13 Opomeni se Avrama, Isaka i Izrailja, sluga svojih, kojima si se sobom zakleo i obrekao im: umnožiæu sjeme vaše kao zvijezde na nebu, i zemlju ovu, za koju govorih, svu æu dati sjemenu vašemu da je njihova dovijeka.
Think about your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You solemnly promised them, ‘I will enable you to have as many descendants as there are stars in the sky.’ You said to them, ‘I will give to your descendants all the land that I am promising to give them. It will be their land forever.’”
14 I ražali se Gospodu uèiniti zlo narodu svojemu, koje reèe.
So Yahweh changed his mind. He did not do to his people the terrible thing that he said he would do.
15 Tada se vrati Mojsije, i siðe s gore sa dvije ploèe svjedoèanstva u rukama svojim; i ploèe bjehu pisane s obje strane, otud i odovud pisane.
Moses/I turned away from God and went down the mountain, carrying in his hands the two stone slabs on which Yahweh had engraved his commandments. He had written on both sides of the slabs.
16 I bjehu ploèe djelo Božije, i pismo bješe pismo Božije, urezano na ploèama.
God [himself] had made the slabs, and he was the one who had engraved the commandments on them.
17 A Isus èuvši viku u narodu, kad vikahu, reèe Mojsiju: vika ubojna u okolu.
Joshua heard the very loud noise of the people shouting. So when he and I got near the camp, Joshua said, “There is a noise in the camp that sounds like [the noise of] a battle!”
18 A on reèe: nije to vika kako vièu koji su jaèi, niti je vika kako vièu koji su slabiji, nego èujem viku onijeh koji pjevaju.
But Moses/I replied, [“No], that is not the shouting that people do when they have won a victory or when they have been defeated [in a battle] What I hear is the sound of [loud] singing!”
19 I kad doðe blizu okola, ugleda tele i igre, te se razgnjevi Mojsije, i baci iz ruku svojih ploèe, i razbi ih pod gorom.
As soon as Moses/I came close to the camp and saw the statue of the young bull and saw the people dancing, he/I became extremely angry. He/I threw the stone tablets that he/I was carrying down onto the ground, there at the base of the mountain.
20 Pa uze tele koje bijahu naèinili i spali ga ognjem, i satr ga u prah, i prosu ga po vodi, i zapoji sinove Izrailjeve.
Then he/I took the statue of the young bull that they had made and melted it in the fire. [When it cooled], he/I ground it into [fine] powder. Then he/I mixed the powder with water and forced the Israeli people to drink it.
21 I reèe Mojsije Aronu: šta ti je uèinio ovaj narod, te ga uvali u toliki grijeh?
Then he/I said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, with the result that you have made them commit such a terrible sin?”
22 A Aron mu reèe: nemoj se gnjeviti, gospodaru; ti znaš ovaj narod da je brz na zlo.
Aaron replied, “Please do not be angry with me, sir. You know that these people are very determined to do evil things.
23 Jer rekoše mi: naèini nam bogove, koji æe iæi pred nama, jer tome Mojsiju koji nas izvede iz zemlje Misirske ne znamo šta bi.
They said to me, ‘As for that man Moses, the one who brought us up here from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him. So make for us an idol that will lead us!’
24 A ja im rekoh: ko ima zlata, neka ga skida sa sebe. I dadoše mi, a ja ga bacih u vatru, i izaðe to tele.
So I said to them, ‘Everyone who is wearing [gold earrings] should take them off.’ So they [took them off and] gave them to me. I threw them into the fire, and out came this statue of a young bull!”
25 A Mojsije videæi narod go, jer ga ogoli Aron na sramotu pred protivnicima njegovijem,
Moses/I saw that Aaron had allowed the people to become completely out of control and to do things that would make their enemies think the Israeli people were foolish.
26 Stade Mojsije na vrata od okola, i reèe: k meni ko je Gospodnji. I skupiše se pred njega svi sinovi Levijevi.
So he/I stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, “Everyone who is loyal to Yahweh should come [closer] to me!” So the descendants of Levi gathered around him/me.
27 I reèe im: ovako kaže Gospod Bog Izrailjev: pripašite svaki svoj maè uz bedro svoje, pa proðite tamo i amo po okolu od vrata do vrata, i pobijte svaki brata svojega i prijatelja svojega i bližnjega svojega.
Then he/I said to them, “Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people, commands that every one of you should fasten your sword to your side, and then go through the camp from this entrance to the other one, and kill some of your relatives and your companions and your neighbors.”
28 I uèiniše sinovi Levijevi po zapovijesti Mojsijevoj, i pogibe naroda u onaj dan do tri tisuæe ljudi.
The descendants of Levi did what Moses/I told them to do, and they killed 3,000 men on that day.
29 Jer Mojsije reèe: posvetite danas ruke svoje Gospodu, svak na sinu svom i na bratu svom, da bi vam dao danas blagoslov.
Moses/I said to the descendants of Levi, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to serving Yahweh by (killing/not sparing) [even] your own sons and brothers, and as a result Yahweh will bless you.”
30 A sjutradan reèe Mojsije narodu: vi ljuto sagriješiste; zato sada idem gore ka Gospodu, eda bih ga umolio da vam oprosti grijeh.
The next day, Moses/I said to the people, “You have committed a terrible sin. But I will now climb up the mountain again to talk with Yahweh. Perhaps I can [persuade him] to forgive you for sinning [like this].”
31 I vrati se Mojsije ka Gospodu, i reèe: molim ti se; narod ovaj ljuto sagriješi naèinivši sebi bogove od zlata.
So Moses/I went back up the mountain and said to Yahweh, “I am sorry to admit that these people have committed a terrible sin. They have made for themselves a gold idol and have worshiped it.
32 Ali oprosti im grijeh: ako li neæeš, izbriši me iz knjige svoje, koju si napisao.
But now I ask you to please forgive them for having sinned. If you will not forgive them, then erase my name from the book in which you have written [the names of your people].”
33 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: ko mi je zgriješio, onoga æu izbrisati iz knjige svoje.
But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “It is [only] those who have sinned against me whose names I will erase from that book.
34 A sada idi, vodi taj narod kuda sam ti kazao. Evo, moj æe anðeo iæi pred tobom, a kad ih pohodim, pohodiæu na njima grijeh njihov.
Now you go back down and lead the [Israeli] people to the place that I told you about. Keep in mind that my angel will go in front of you. But, at the time that I determine, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 I Gospod bi narod zato što naèiniše tele, koje sali Aron.
[Later] Yahweh caused a plague to strike the people because they had told Aaron to make the gold [statue of a] young bull.
