2 Mojzes 14
1 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
And 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 children of Israel: Let them turn and encamp over against Phihahiroth which is between Magdal and the sea over against Beelsephon: you shall encamp before it upon the sea.
3 Kajti faraon bo o Izraelovih otrocih rekel: ›Zapletli so se v deželi, divjina jih je zaprla noter.‹
And Pharao will say of the children of Israel: They are straitened in the land, the desert hath shut them in.
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 shall harden his heart, and he will pursue you: and I shall be glorified in Pharao, and in all his army: and the Egyptians shall 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 told the king of the Egyptians that the people was fled: and the heart of Pharao and of his servants was changed with regard to the people, and they said: What meant we to do, that we let Israel go from serving us?
6 In pripravil je svoj bojni voz in s seboj vzel svoje ljudstvo.
So he made ready his chariot, and 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 all the chariots that were in Egypt: and the captains 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 Pharao king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel: but they were gone forth in a mighty 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 steps of them who were gone before, they found them encamped at the sea side: all Pharao’s horse and chariots, and the whole army were in Phihahiroth before Beelsephon.
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 Pharao drew near, the children of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians behind them: and they feared exceedingly, and cried 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, therefore thou hast brought us to die in the wilderness: why wouldst thou do this, to lead 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 not this the word that we spoke to thee in Egypt, saying: Depart from us 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: Fear not: stand and see the great wonders of the Lord, which he will do this day: for the Egyptians, whom you see now, you shall see no more for ever.
14 Gospod se bo boril za vas in vi boste ohranili svoj mir.«
The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.
15 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Zakaj vpiješ k meni? Govori Izraelovim otrokom, da gredo naprej.
And the Lord said to Moses: Why criest thou to me? Speak to the children of Israel to go forward.
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.
But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch forth thy hand over the sea, and divide it: that the children of Israel may go 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.
And I will harden the heart of the Egyptians to pursue you: and I will be glorified in Pharao, and in all his host, 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 shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall be glorified in Pharao, and in his chariots and 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 went before the camp of Israel, removing, went behind them: and together with him the pillar of the cloud, leaving the forepart,
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.
Stood behind, between the Egyptians’ camp and the camp of Israel: and it was a dark cloud, and enlightening the night, so that they could not come at one another all the 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 stretched forth his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by a strong and burning wind blowing all the night, and 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 children of Israel went in through the midst of the sea dried up: for the water was as a wall on their right hand and on their left.
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 went in after them, and all Pharao’s horses, 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 was come, and behold the Lord looking upon the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, slew their host.
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 overthrew the wheels of the chariots, and they were carried into the deep. And the Egyptians said: Let us flee from Israel: for the Lord fighteth for them 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: Stretch forth they hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon 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 stretched forth his hand towards the sea, it returned at the first break of day to the former place: and as the Egyptians were fleeing away, the waters came upon them, and the Lord shut them up in the middle 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 returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen of all the army of Pharao, who had come into the sea after them, neither did there so much as one of them remain.
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 children of Israel marched through the midst of the sea upon dry land, and the waters were to them as a wall on the right hand 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 the Lord delivered Israel on that day out of the hands 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 upon the sea shore, and the mighty hand that the Lord had used against them: and the people feared the Lord, and they believed the Lord, and Moses his servant.
