2 Mojzes 14
1 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 »Govori Izraelovim otrokom, da se obrnejo in se utaborijo pred Pi Hahirótom, med Migdólom in morjem, nasproti Báal Cefónu. Pred njim se boste utaborili ob morju.
“Speak to the sons of Israel. Let them turn back and encamp away from the region of Pihahiroth, which is between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal-zephon. In its sight you shall place your camp, above the sea.
3 Kajti faraon bo o Izraelovih otrocih rekel: ›Zapletli so se v deželi, divjina jih je zaprla noter.‹
And Pharaoh will say about the sons of Israel, ‘They have been confined by the land; the desert has enclosed them.’
4 Jaz pa bom zakrknil faraonovo srce, da bo sledil za njimi in počaščen bom na faraonu in na vsej njegovi vojski, da bodo Egipčani lahko spoznali, da jaz sem Gospod.« In tako so storili.
And I will harden his heart, and so he will pursue you. And I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in all his army. And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.
5 Egiptovskemu kralju je bilo povedano, da je ljudstvo zbežalo. In srce faraona in njegovih služabnikov je bilo obrnjeno zoper ljudstvo in rekli so: »Zakaj smo storili to, da smo pustili Izraela oditi od služenja nam?«
And it was reported to the king of the Egyptians that the people had fled. And the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed about the people, and they said, “What did we intend to do, so that we released Israel from serving us?”
6 In pripravil je svoj bojni voz in s seboj vzel svoje ljudstvo.
Therefore, he harnessed his chariot, and he took all his people with him.
7 Vzel je šeststo izbranih bojnih voz in vse egiptovske bojne vozove in častnike nad vsakim izmed njih.
And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and whatever chariots were in Egypt, and also the leaders of the whole army.
8 Gospod je zakrknil srce faraonu, egiptovskemu kralju in ta je zasledoval Izraelove otroke. Izraelovi otroci pa so izšli z vzdignjeno roko.
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he pursued the sons of Israel. But they were taken away by an exalted hand.
9 Toda Egipčani so jih zasledovali, vsi faraonovi konji in bojni vozovi in njegovi konjeniki in njegova vojska in jih dohiteli ob morju, utaborjene poleg Pi Hahiróta, pred Báal Cefónom.
And when the Egyptians followed the footsteps of those who preceded them, they found them in a camp above the sea. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and the entire army, were in Pihahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon.
10 Ko se je faraon približal, so Izraelovi otroci povzdignili svoje oči in glej, Egipčani so korakali za njimi in bili so boleče prestrašeni in Izraelovi otroci so zavpili h Gospodu.
And when Pharaoh had drawn near, the sons of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians behind them. And they were very afraid. And they cried out to the Lord.
11 Mojzesu so rekli: »Ali si nas odpeljal proč, da umremo v divjini, ker ni bilo grobov v Egiptu? Zakaj si tako ravnal z nami, da si nas odvedel iz Egipta?
And they said to Moses: “Perhaps there were no graves in Egypt, for which reason you took us to die in the wilderness. What is it that you intended to do, in leading us out of Egypt?
12 Mar ni to beseda, ki smo ti jo povedali v Egiptu, rekoč: ›Pusti nas pri miru, da lahko služimo Egipčanom?‹ Kajti za nas bi bilo bolje, da služimo Egipčanom, kakor pa, da bi umrli v divjini.«
Is this not the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying: Withdraw from us, so that we may serve the Egyptians? For it was much better to serve them, than to die in the wilderness.”
13 Mojzes je ljudstvu rekel: »Ne bojte se, mirno stojte in glejte Gospodovo rešitev duš, ki vam jo bo danes pokazal, kajti Egipčane, ki ste jih videli danes, jih na veke ne boste več videli.
And Moses said to the people: “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and see the great wonders of the Lord, which he will do today. For the Egyptians, whom you now see, will never again be seen, forever.
14 Gospod se bo boril za vas in vi boste ohranili svoj mir.«
The Lord will fight on your behalf, and you will remain silent.”
15 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Zakaj vpiješ k meni? Govori Izraelovim otrokom, da gredo naprej.
And the Lord said to Moses: “Why cry out to me? Tell the sons of Israel to continue on.
16 Toda ti vzdigni svojo palico in iztegni svojo roko nad morje in ga razdeli in Izraelovi otroci bodo šli po suhih tleh skozi sredo morja.
Now, lift up your staff, and extend your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the sons of Israel may walk through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
17 Glej, zakrknil bom srca Egipčanom in oni jim bodo sledili in jaz si bom pridobil čast nad faraonom in nad vso njegovo vojsko, nad njegovimi bojnimi vozovi in nad njegovimi konjeniki.
Then I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, so as to pursue you. And I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in all his army, and in his chariots, and in his horsemen.
18 Egipčani bodo vedeli, da jaz sem Gospod, ko sem si pridobil čast nad faraonom, nad njegovimi bojnimi vozovi in nad njegovimi konjeniki.«
And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in his chariots, as well as in his horsemen.”
19 Božji angel, ki je šel pred Izraelovim taborom, se je odstranil in odšel za njimi, in oblačni steber je odšel izpred njihovih obrazov in stal za njimi.
And the Angel of God, who preceded the camp of Israel, lifting himself up, went behind them. And the pillar of cloud, together with him, left the front for the rear
20 Prišel je med tabor Egipčanov in tabor Izraela. Njim je bil oblak in tema, toda le-tem je dajal svetlobo ponoči, tako da vso noč eni niso prišli blizu k drugim.
and stood between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. And it was a dark cloud, yet it illuminated the night, so that they could not succeed at approaching one another at any time all that night.
21 Mojzes je svojo roko iztegnil nad morje in Gospod je storil, da je morje vso tisto noč šlo nazaj z močnim vzhodnikom in naredilo morje kopno zemljo in vode so bile razdeljene.
And when Moses had extended his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by an intense burning wind, blowing throughout the night, and he turned it into dry ground. And the water was divided.
22 In Izraelovi otroci so šli v sredo morja po suhih tleh in vode so jim bile zid na njihovi desnici in na njihovi levici.
And the sons of Israel went in through the midst of the dried sea. For the water was like a wall at their right hand and at their left hand.
23 Egipčani pa so jih zasledovali in šli noter za njimi v sredo morja, celo vsi faraonovi konji, njegovi bojni vozovi in njegovi konjeniki.
And the Egyptians, pursuing them, went in after them, along with all of the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots and horsemen, through the midst of the sea.
24 Pripetilo se je, da je ob jutranji straži Gospod skozi ognjen in oblačen steber pogledal na vojsko Egipčanov in prizadel vojsko Egipčanov.
And now the morning watch had arrived, and behold, the Lord, looking down upon the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, put to death their army.
25 Snemal je kolesa njihovim bojnim vozovom, da so jih težko vozili. Tako da so Egipčani rekli: »Zbežimo pred obličjem Izraela, kajti Gospod se bori zanje zoper Egipčane.«
And he overturned the wheels of the chariots, and they were carried into the deep. Therefore, the Egyptians said: “Let us flee from Israel. For the Lord fights on their behalf against us.”
26 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Svojo roko iztegni nad morje, da lahko vode ponovno pridejo nad Egipčane, nad njihove bojne vozove in nad njihove konjenike.«
And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the sea, so that the waters may return on the Egyptians, over their chariots and horsemen.”
27 Mojzes je svojo roko iztegnil nad morje in ko se je prikazalo jutro, se je morje vrnilo k svoji moči in Egipčani so bežali proti le-temu; in Gospod je Egipčane porazil v sredi morja.
And when Moses had extended his hand opposite the sea, it was returned, at first light, to its former place. And the fleeing Egyptians met with the waters, and the Lord immersed them in the midst of the waves.
28 Vode so se vrnile in pokrile bojne vozove, konjenike in vso faraonovo vojsko, ki je za njimi prišla v morje. Tam ni ostal niti eden izmed njih.
And the waters were returned, and they covered the chariots and horsemen of the entire army of Pharaoh, who, in following, had entered into the sea. And not so much as one of them was left alive.
29 Toda Izraelovi otroci so hodili po suhi zemlji v sredi morja. Vode so jim bile zid na njihovi desnici in na njihovi levici.
But the sons of Israel continued directly through the midst of the dried sea, and the waters were to them like a wall on the right and on the left.
30 Tako je Gospod tega dne rešil Izraela iz roke Egipčanov, in Izrael je videl Egipčane mrtve na morski obali.
And so the Lord freed Israel on that day from the hand of the Egyptians.
31 Izrael je videl to veliko delo, ki ga je Gospod storil na Egipčanih, in ljudstvo se je balo Gospoda in verjelo Gospodu in njegovemu služabniku Mojzesu.
And they saw the Egyptians dead on the shore of the sea and the great hand that the Lord had exercised against them. And the people feared the Lord, and they believed in the Lord and in Moses his servant.
