< Izlazak 7 >

1 I Gospod reèe Mojsiju: evo, postavio sam te da si Bog Faraonu; a Aron brat tvoj biæe prorok tvoj.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
2 Govoriæeš sve što ti zapovjedim; Aron pak brat tvoj govoriæe Faraonu da pusti sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje svoje.
You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
3 A ja æu uèiniti da otvrdne srce Faraonu, te æu umnožiti znake svoje i èudesa svoja u zemlji Misirskoj.
I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 I neæe vas ipak poslušati Faraon; a ja æu metnuti ruku svoju na Misir, i izvešæu vojsku svoju, narod svoj, sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje Misirske sudovima velikim.
But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 I poznaæe Misirci da sam ja Gospod, kad dignem ruku svoju na Misir, i izvedem sinove Izrailjeve izmeðu njih.
The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring the children of Israel out from among them.”
6 I uèini Mojsije i Aron, kako im zapovjedi Gospod, tako uèiniše.
Moses and Aaron did so. As Yahweh commanded them, so they did.
7 A Mojsiju bijaše osamdeset godina, a Aronu osamdeset i tri godine, kad govorahu s Faraonom.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju i Aronu govoreæi:
Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
9 Kad vam kaže Faraon i reèe: uèinite kako èudo, onda reci Aronu: uzmi štap svoj, i baci ga pred Faraona; te æe se prometnuti u zmiju.
“When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Perform a miracle!’ then you shall tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will become a serpent.’”
10 I izaðoše Mojsije i Aron pred Faraona, i uèiniše kako zapovjedi Gospod; i baci Aron štap svoj pred Faraona i pred sluge njegove, i prometnu se u zmiju.
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as Yahweh had commanded. Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 A Faraon dozva mudarce i vraèare; te i vraèari Misirski uèiniše tako svojim vraèanjem.
Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.
12 I baciše svaki svoj štap, i prometnuše se štapovi u zmije; ali štap Aronov proždrije njihove štapove.
For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents; but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 I otvrdnu srce Faraonovo, i ne posluša ih, kao što bješe kazao Gospod.
Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
14 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju: oteža srce Faraonovo; neæe da pusti naroda.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.
15 Idi ujutru k Faraonu. Gle, on æe izaæi na vodu, pa stani prema njemu na obali, a štap koji se bio prometnuo u zmiju uzmi u ruku.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he is going out to the water. You shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. You shall take the rod which was turned to a serpent in your hand.
16 I reci mu: Gospod Bog Jevrejski posla me k tebi da ti kažem: pusti narod moj da mi posluži u pustinji. Ali ti eto još ne posluša.
You shall tell him, ‘Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness. Behold, until now you haven’t listened.”
17 Zato Gospod ovako veli: ovako æeš poznati da sam ja Gospod: evo, udariæu štapom što mi je u ruci po vodi što je u rijeci, i prometnuæe se u krv.
Yahweh says, “In this you shall know that I am Yahweh. Behold: I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18 I ribe u rijeci pomrijeæe, i rijeka æe se usmrdjeti, i Misirci æe se uzmuèiti tražeæi vode da piju iz rijeke.
The fish that are in the river will die and the river will become foul. The Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the river.”’”
19 I Gospod reèe Mojsiju: reci Aronu: uzmi štap svoj, i pruži ruku svoju na vode Misirske, na potoke, na rijeke i na jezera njihova i na sva zborišta voda njihovijeh; i prometnuæe se u krv, i biæe krv po svoj zemlji Misirskoj, i po sudima drvenijem i kamenijem.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood. There will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”
20 I uèiniše Mojsije i Aron kako im zapovjedi Gospod; i podigav Aron štap svoj udari po vodi koja bješe u rijeci pred Faraonom i slugama njegovijem. I sva voda što bješe u rijeci prometnu se u krv.
Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
21 I pomriješe ribe što bijahu u rijeci, i usmrdje se rijeka tako da ne mogahu Misirci piti vode iz rijeke, i bješe krv po svoj zemlji Misirskoj.
The fish that were in the river died. The river became foul. The Egyptians couldn’t drink water from the river. The blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
22 Ali i vraèari Misirski uèiniše tako svojim vraèanjem; i srce Faraonu otvrdnu, te ih ne posluša, kao što bješe kazao Gospod.
The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
23 I okrenuv se Faraon otide kuæi svojoj, i ne mari ni za to.
Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and he didn’t even take this to heart.
24 A Misirci svi kopaše oko rijeke tražeæi vode da piju; jer ne mogahu piti vode iz rijeke.
All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn’t drink the river water.
25 I navrši se sedam dana kako rijeku udari Gospod.
Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
