Исход 4
1 Отвеща же Моисей и рече: аще не уверуют ми, ниже послушают гласа моего, рекут бо, яко не явися тебе Бог, что реку к ним?
Moses answered, "But, look, they will not believe me, nor listen to my voice; for they will say, 'God has not appeared to you.'"
2 И рече к нему Господь: что сие есть в руце твоей? Он же рече: жезл.
Jehovah said to him, "What is that in your hand?" He said, "A staff."
3 И рече: поверзи его на землю. И верже и на землю, и бысть змий: и отбеже Моисей от него.
He said, "Throw it on the ground." He threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses ran away from it.
4 И рече Господь к Моисею: простри руку и ими за хвост. Простер убо руку, взя за хвост, и бысть жезл в руце его.
Jehovah said to Moses, "Put forth your hand, and take it by the tail." He put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a staff in his hand.
5 Да уверуют ти, яко явися тебе Господь Бог отец твоих, Бог Авраамов и Бог Исааков и Бог Иаковль.
"That they may believe that Jehovah, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you."
6 Рече же ему Господь паки: вложи руку твою в недро твое. И вложи руку в недро свое, и изят ю от недра своего, и бысть рука его прокажена яко снег.
Jehovah said furthermore to him, "Now put your hand inside your cloak." He put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, look, his hand was leprous, as white as snow.
7 И рече паки ему Господь: вложи руку твою в недро твое. И вложи руку свою в недро свое, и изят ю от недра своего, и бысть паки в румянстве плоти своея.
He said, "Put your hand inside your cloak again." He put his hand inside his cloak again, and when he took it out of his cloak, look, it had turned again as his other flesh.
8 Аще же не уверуют тебе, ниже послушают гласа знамения перваго, уверуют тебе ради гласа знамения втораго:
"It will happen, if they will neither believe you nor listen to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
9 и будет аще не уверуют тебе двема знамениями сими, ниже послушают гласа твоего, да возмеши от воды речныя, и пролиеши на сухо: и будет вода, юже возмеши от реки, кровию на сусе.
It will happen, if they will not believe even these two signs, neither listen to your voice, that you shall take of the water of the river, and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land."
10 Рече же Моисей ко Господу: молюся ти, Господи: недоброречив есмь прежде вчерашняго и третияго дне, ниже отнележе начал еси глаголати рабу Твоему: худогласен и косноязычен аз есмь.
Moses said to Jehovah, "Please, Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before now, nor since you have spoken to your servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue."
11 И рече Господь к Моисею: кто даде уста человеку? И кто сотвори нема и глуха, и видяща и слепа? Не Аз ли Господь Бог?
Jehovah said to him, "Who made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Is it not I, God?
12 И ныне иди, и Аз отверзу уста твоя и устрою тебе, еже имаши глаголати.
Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak."
13 Рече же Моисей: молюся ти, Господи, избери могуща иного, егоже послеши.
He said, "Oh, Lord, please send someone else."
14 И разгневався яростию Господь на Моисеа, рече: не се ли брат твой Аарон Левитин? Вем, яко глаголя возглаголет он вместо тебе: и се, той изыдет во сретение тебе, и узрев тя, возрадуется в себе:
The anger of Jehovah was kindled against Moses, and he said, "What about Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Also, look, he comes forth to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
15 и речеши к нему, и вдаси словеса Моя во уста его: Аз же отверзу уста твоя и уста его, и устрою вам яже имате творити:
You shall speak to him, and put the words in his mouth. I will be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do.
16 и той возглаголет от тебе к людем, и той будет уста твоя: ты же будеши ему в тех, яже к Богу:
He will be your spokesman to the people; and it will happen, that he will be to you a mouth, and you will be to him as God.
17 и жезл сей обращенный в змию, возми в руку твою, сим сотвориши знамения.
You shall take this staff in your hand, with which you shall do the signs."
18 Пойде же Моисей, и возвратися ко Иофору тестю своему и рече: пойду и возвращуся ко братии моей, иже во Египте, и увижду, аще еще живи суть. И рече Иофор к Моисею: иди здрав. По днех же оных многих, умре царь Египетский.
Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, "Please let me go and return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive." Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."
19 И рече Господь к Моисею в земли Мадиамстей: иди, отиди во Египет: измроша бо вси ищущии души твоея.
Jehovah said to Moses in Midian, "Go, return into Egypt; for all the men who sought your life are dead."
20 Поим же Моисей жену свою и отрочата, всади я на ослята, и возвратися во Египет. И взя Моисей жезл, иже от Бога, в руку свою.
Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. Moses took God's staff in his hand.
21 Рече же Господь к Моисею: идущу тебе и возвращающуся во Египет, зри вся чудеса, яже дах в руце твои, да сотвориши Я пред фараоном: Аз же ожесточу сердце его, и не отпустит людий:
Jehovah said to Moses, "When you go back into Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.
22 ты же возглаголеши фараону: сия глаголет Господь Бог Еврейский: сын Мой первенец Израиль:
You shall tell Pharaoh, 'Thus says Jehovah, Israel is my son, my firstborn,
23 рех же тебе: отпусти люди Моя, да Ми послужат: аще убо не хощеши отпустити их, блюди убо, Аз убию сына твоего первенца.
and I have said to you, "Let my son go, that he may serve me;" and you have refused to let him go. Look, I will kill your son, your firstborn.'"
24 Бысть же на пути на стану, срете его Ангел Господнь и искаше его убити.
It happened on the way at a lodging place, that Jehovah met him and wanted to kill him.
25 И вземши Сепфора камень, обреза конечную плоть сына своего, и припаде к ногам его и рече: ста кровь обрезания сына моего.
Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, "Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me."
26 И отиде от него Ангел, занеже рече: ста кровь обрезания сына моего.
So he let him alone. Then she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood," because of the circumcision.
27 Рече же Господь ко Аарону: изыди во сретение Моисею в пустыню. И иде, и срете его в горе Божии: и целовастася оба.
Jehovah said to Aaron, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moses." He went, and met him on God's mountain, and kissed him.
28 И поведа Моисей Аарону вся словеса Господня, яже посла, и вся знамения, яже заповеда ему.
Moses told Aaron all the words of Jehovah with which he had sent him, and all the signs with which he had instructed him.
29 Иде же Моисей и Аарон, и собраша вся старцы сынов Израилевых:
Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel.
30 и глагола им Аарон вся словеса сия, яже глагола Бог к Моисею: и сотвори знамения пред людьми.
Aaron spoke all the words which God had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.
31 И вероваша людие, и возрадовашася, яко посети Бог сыны Израилевы и яко призре на их скорбение: и преклоншеся людие поклонишася.
The people believed, and when they heard that God had visited the children of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.
