Исход 16
1 Воздвигошася же от Елима, и прииде весь сонм сынов Израилевых в пустыню Син, яже есть между Елимом и между Синою. В пятый же надесять день втораго месяца изшедшым им от земли Египетския,
They/We left Elim, and all the Israeli people came to the desert [named] Sin. That is between Elim and Sinai [Mountain]. That was on the fifteenth day of the second month after they/we left Egypt.
2 возропта весь сонм сынов Израилевых на Моисеа и Аарона,
There in the desert, the Israeli [HYP] people complained to Aaron and Moses/me.
3 и рекоша к ним сынове Израилевы: о дабы быхом измерли мы уязвени от Господа в земли Египетстей, егда седяхом над котлы мясными и ядохом хлебы до сытости: яко изведосте ны в пустыню сию уморити весь сонм сей гладом.
They said to them/us, “We wish that Yahweh had killed us in Egypt! There we had meat to eat, and all the bread that we wanted. But you have brought us into this desert in order that we will all starve to death!”
4 Рече же Господь к Моисею: се, Аз одождю вам хлебы с небесе: и изыдут людие, и соберут доволное дню, на (всяк) день, яко да искушу их, аще пойдут в законе Моем, или ни.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen to what I am going [to do]. I am going to send something from the sky that will [take the place of] bread for all of you. When I do that, the people must go out of their tents every day and gather just enough to eat on that day. [When I do that], I will find out whether they will obey my instructions or not.
5 И будет в день шестый, и уготовят, еже внесут, и да будет сугубо, еже собираша на всяк день.
On the sixth day [after I start doing that], they will be able to gather twice as much as on the other days, [and not have to gather any on the seventh day]. Then they can prepare it [to eat it on the 6th and 7th days].”
6 Рече же Моисей и Аарон ко всему сонму сынов Израилевых: в вечер (сей) увесте, яко Господь изведе вы от земли Египетския,
So Aaron and Moses/I said to all the Israeli people, “This evening you will know that it was Yahweh, [not we], who brought you out of Egypt.
7 и заутра узрите славу Господню, внегда услышати Господу роптание ваше на Бога: мы же что есмы, яко ропщете на ны?
And tomorrow morning you will see how great Yahweh is, because he has heard what you have complained about. He is the one whom you have really complained to, because we are just his servants.” [RHQ]
8 И рече Моисей: егда даст Господь вам в вечер мяса ясти и хлебы заутра до сытости, понеже услыша Господь роптание ваше, имже ропщете на ны: мы же что есмы? Не на нас бо роптание ваше, но точию на Бога.
Then Moses/I also said, “[From now on, each] evening Yahweh will give you meat to eat, and [each] morning he will give you [something that will take the place of] bread, because he has heard what you have complained about. Yahweh is the one to whom you have really complained, not us. We are just his servants.” [RHQ]
9 И рече Моисей ко Аарону: глаголи ко всему сонму сынов Израилевых: приидите пред Бога, услыша бо роптание ваше.
Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “Tell all the Israeli people, ‘Come and stand here in the presence of Yahweh, because he has heard what you have been complaining about.’”
10 Егда же глаголаше Аарон всему сонму сынов Израилевых, и обратишася в пустыню, и слава Господня явися во облаце,
So Aaron told them that. And as Aaron was talking to all the Israeli people, they looked toward the desert, and were surprised to see the (dazzling light/incredible brightness) of Yahweh in the cloud [that had been leading them].
11 и рече Господь к Моисею глаголя:
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
12 слышах роптание сынов Израилевых: рцы к ним глаголя: к вечеру да снесте мяса и заутра насытитеся хлебов, и увесте, яко Аз есмь Господь Бог ваш.
“I have heard what the Israeli people have been complaining about. So say to them, ‘From now on, each evening, you will have meat to eat. And each morning you will have something that will take the place of bread. You will have all you want of it to eat.’ Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
13 Бысть же вечер, и приидоша крастели и покрыша полк. Заутра же бысть спадшей росе около полка,
That evening, (quails/small plump birds) appeared, and [there were so many that] they covered the campsite. The next morning there was [something like] dew all around the campsite.
14 и се, на лицы пустыни мелко яко кориандр, бело аки лед на земли.
When the dew evaporated, on the surface of the desert there was a thick layer of something that looked like white flakes. It looked like frost.
15 Узревше же то сынове Израилевы, реша друг ко другу: что есть сие? Не ведяху бо, что бяше. Рече же Моисей к ним: сей хлеб, егоже даде Господь вам ясти:
When the Israeli people saw it, since they [had never seen it before and] did not know what it was, they said to each other, “What is it?” Moses/I replied to them, “It is something Yahweh has given you to eat, to take the place of bread.
16 сей глаголгол, егоже завеща Господь: соберите от него кийждо на домашния, гомор поглавно по числу душ ваших, кийждо вас с домашними своими соберите.
This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘Each of you should gather as much as you need to eat. Gather two quarts/liters for each person who lives in your tents.’”
17 И сотвориша тако сынове Израилевы, и собраша ов много, ов же мало:
So that is what the Israeli people did. Some gathered more and some gathered less.
18 и измеривше гомором, не преизбыточествова иже много, и иже мало, не мнее прият: кийждо на домашних своих собраша.
But when they measured [what they had gathered], those that had gathered a lot did not have anything left over. And those that gathered less still had enough to eat. Each person gathered just what they needed.
19 И рече Моисей к ним: никтоже да оставит на утрие от него.
Moses/I said to them, “Do not leave any of it to eat tomorrow morning!”
20 И не послушаша Моисеа, но оставиша нецыи от него на утрие, и воскипе червми и возсмердеся. И оскорбися на них Моисей.
But some of them did not pay any attention to what Moses/I said. They kept some of it until the next morning. But it was full of maggots and smelled rotten. And that made Moses/me angry.
21 И собираша оное рано рано, кийждо надлежащее себе: егда же огреваше солнце, растаяваше.
Each morning they gathered as much as they needed. But [later], when the sun got hot, [what was left on the ground] melted.
22 Бысть же в день шестый, собраша потребное сугубо, два гомора комуждо. Приидоша же вси князи сонма и поведаша Моисею.
On the sixth day after they started gathering it, each person was able to gather four quarts/liters, which was twice [as much as they gathered on the other days]. When the leaders of the people came to Moses/me and told him/me [about that],
23 Рече же Моисей к ним: сие слово есть, еже глагола Господь: суббота покой свят Господу заутра: елика аще печете, пецыте, и елика аще варите, варите, все же избыточное оставите в скрове на утрие.
Moses/I said to them, “This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘Tomorrow will be a day for you to rest completely. It will be a day dedicated to Yahweh. So today, bake or boil what you will [need for today and for tomorrow]. Whatever is left [this evening], you should put aside and keep it [to eat] tomorrow.’”
24 И оставиша от того до утрия, якоже заповеда им Моисей: и не возсмердеся, ниже червь бысть в нем.
So they did what Moses/I commanded. What was left over, they kept until the next day. It did not spoil and did not get maggots in it!
25 Рече же Моисей: ядите днесь, есть бо суббота покой Господу: днесь не обрящете на поли:
[On that day], Moses/I said, “Eat today [what you have saved from yesterday], because today is a day dedicated to Yahweh. Today you will not find any of that food outside.
26 шесть дний собирайте, в седмый же день суббота: яко не будет в нем.
[Every week], you must gather it for six days; but on the seventh day, which will be a day of rest, you will not find any.”
27 Бысть же в седмый день, изыдоша нецыи от людий собирати, и не обретоша.
On the seventh day, some of the people went outside their tents to gather some of that food, but there was none.
28 Рече же Господь Моисеови: доколе не хощете послушати заповедий Моих и закона Моего?
Then Yahweh [told Moses/me to say this to] the people: “How long will you people refuse to do all the things that I tell you?
29 Зрите: Господь бо даде вам субботу день сей: сего ради Той даде вам в день шестый хлеба на два дни: седите кийждо вас в дому своем у себе, никтоже да исходит от места своего в день седмый.
Listen! Yahweh has given you a day of rest. So on the sixth day [of each week], he will be giving you enough of this food for two days. Each of you should stay in his tent [and do no work] on the seventh day!”
30 И субботствоваша людие в день седмый.
So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 И прозваша сынове Израилевы имя тому манна: бяше же яко семя кориандрово бело, вкус же его аки мука с медом.
The Israeli people called this food manna, [which sounds like the words in their language that mean ‘what is it]?’ It looked like small seeds [called] coriander, but it was white, and it tasted like thin wafers/biscuits made with honey.
32 Рече же им Моисей: сей глаголгол, егоже завеща Господь: наполните гомор от манны в скров в роды вашя: да видят хлеб, егоже ядосте вы в пустыни, егда изведе вас Господь от земли Египетския.
Moses/I said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded: ‘You must keep two quarts/liters of it for all future generations, so that they can see the [food that took the place of] bread that I gave to your [ancestors] when I brought them out of Egypt.’”
33 И рече Моисей ко Аарону: возми стамну златую едину и вложи в ню гомор полный от манны, и положиши тую пред Богом в соблюдение в роды вашя.
And he/I said to Aaron, “Take a jar, and put two quarts of manna in it. Then put it [in a place] where Yahweh can see it. It is to be kept like that for all future generations.”
34 Якоже заповеда Господь Моисею, положи ю Аарон пред свидением в соблюдение.
[Many years later], as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me, Aaron put the jar in front of the box [that contained the stone slabs on which] the Ten Commandments [were written].
35 Сынове же Израилевы ядоша манну лет четыредесять, дондеже приидоша в землю обитаемую, и ядоша манну, дондеже приидоша во страну Финикийскую:
The Israeli people were able to eat manna [every day] for 40 years, until they came to the border of Canaan land.
36 гомор же десятая часть трех мер бяше.
(The standard measure [that they used at that time] held 20 quarts/liters.)
