2 Mojzes 16

1 Odšli so na svoje potovanje od Elíma in vsa skupnost Izraelovih otrok je prišla v Sinsko divjino, ki je med Elímom in Sinajem, na petnajsti dan drugega meseca po njihovem odhodu iz egiptovske dežele.

And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

2 Celotna skupnost Izraelovih otrok je v divjini godrnjala zoper Mojzesa in Arona

And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:

3 in Izraelovi otroci so jima rekli: »Bog daj, da bi umrli po Gospodovi roki v egiptovski deželi, ko smo sedeli pri loncih mesa in ko smo jedli kruha do sitega, kajti privedla sta nas v to divjino, da ta celoten zbor ubijeta z lakoto.«

And the children of Israel said to them, Would to God we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for you have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

4 Potem je Gospod rekel Mojzesu: »Glej, za vas bom z neba deževal kruh in ljudstvo bo šlo ven in vsak dan nabralo določeno mero, da jih lahko preizkusim, ali se bodo ravnali po moji postavi ali ne.

Then said the LORD to Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.

5 In zgodilo se bo, da bodo na šesti dan pripravili to, kar so prinesli in tega bo dvakrat toliko, kolikor so dnevno nabrali.«

And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.

6 Mojzes in Aron sta vsem Izraelovim otrokom rekla: »Zvečer, takrat boste vedeli, da vas je Gospod izpeljal iz egiptovske dežele

And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, At even, then you shall know that the LORD has brought you out from the land of Egypt:

7 in zjutraj, potem boste videli Gospodovo slavo, kajti on posluša vaša mrmranja zoper Gospoda. Kaj pa sva midva, da mrmrate zoper naju?«

And in the morning, then you shall see the glory of the LORD; for that he hears your murmurings against the LORD: and what are we, that you murmur against us?

8 Mojzes je rekel: » To se bo zgodilo, ko vam bo Gospod zvečer dal za jesti meso in zjutraj kruha do sitega, zakaj Gospod sliši vaša mrmranja, ki jih mrmrate zoper njega. Kaj pa sva midva? Vaša mrmranja niso zoper naju, temveč zoper Gospoda.«

And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD hears your murmurings which you murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD.

9 Mojzes je spregovoril Aronu: »Povej vsej skupnosti Izraelovih otrok: ›Pridite bliže, pred Gospoda, kajti slišal je vaša mrmranja.‹«

And Moses spoke to Aaron, Say to all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the LORD: for he has heard your murmurings.

10 Pripetilo se je, ko je Aron govoril celotni skupnosti Izraelovih otrok, da so pogledali proti divjini in glej, Gospodova slava se je prikazala v oblaku.

And it came to pass, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.

11 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

12 »Slišal sem mrmranja Izraelovih otrok. Govori jim, rekoč: ›Zvečer boste jedli meso in zjutraj boste nasičeni s kruhom in vedeli boste, da jaz sem Gospod, vaš Bog.‹«

I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak to them, saying, At even you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread; and you shall know that I am the LORD your God.

13 Pripetilo se je, da so se zvečer pojavile prepelice in pokrile tabor in zjutraj je rosa ležala naokoli vojske.

And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.

14 Ko je rosa, ki je ležala, izparela, glej, na obličju divjine je ležala majhna okrogla stvar, tako majhna kakor slana na tleh.

And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, on the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.

15 Ko so Izraelovi otroci to zagledali, so drug drugemu rekli: »To je mana.« Kajti niso vedeli, kaj je bilo to. Mojzes pa jim je rekel: »To je kruh, ki vam ga Gospod daje za jesti.

And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they knew not what it was. And Moses said to them, This is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat.

16 To je stvar, ki jo je Gospod zapovedal: ›Vsak mož naj od tega nabere glede na svoje prehranjevanje, gomer za vsakega človeka, glede na število vaših oseb; vzemite vsak mož za tiste, ki so v njegovih šotorih.‹«

This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take you every man for them which are in his tents.

17 Izraelovi otroci so storili tako in nabrali, nekateri več, drugi manj.

And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.

18 Ko so to izmerili z gomerjem, kdor je nabral veliko, ni imel preveč in kdor je nabral malo, ni imel pomanjkanja. Vsak človek je nabral glede na svoje prehranjevanje.

And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.

19 Mojzes je rekel: »Naj noben človek od tega ne pusti do jutra.«

And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.

20 Vendar niso poslušali Mojzesa, temveč so nekateri izmed njih pustili od tega do jutra in zaredile so se ličinke ter smrad in Mojzes je bil nad njimi ogorčen.

Notwithstanding they listened not to Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them.

21 To so nabirali vsako jutro, vsak človek glede na svoje prehranjevanje. Ko pa je sonce postalo vroče, se je stopilo.

And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.

22 Pripetilo se je, da so na šesti dan nabrali dvakrat toliko kruha, dva gomerja za enega človeka, in prišli so vsi voditelji skupnosti ter povedali Mojzesu.

And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

23 Rekel jim je: »To je to, kar je rekel Gospod: ›Jutri je počitek svetega šabata Gospodu. To, kar boste spekli, specite danes in zavrite to, kar boste vreli. To pa, kar preostane, vzemite iz uporabe, da bo obdržano do jutra.‹«

And he said to them, This is that which the LORD has said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath to the LORD: bake that which you will bake to day, and seethe that you will seethe; and that which remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.

24 In to so vzeli iz uporabe do jutra, kakor je Mojzes zaukazal, in to ni zaudarjalo niti v tem ni bilo nobenih ličink.

And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.

25 Mojzes je rekel: »To jejte danes, kajti danes je šabat Gospodu. Danes tega ne boste našli na polju.

And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath to the LORD: to day you shall not find it in the field.

26 Šest dni boste to nabirali, toda na sedmi dan, ki je šabat, ne bo ničesar.«

Six days you shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.

27 Pripetilo se je, da je nekaj ljudi izmed ljudstva na sedmi dan odšlo, da nabirajo, pa niso našli ničesar.

And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.

28 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Doklej boste odklanjali, da se držite mojih zapovedi in mojih postav?

And the LORD said to Moses, How long refuse you to keep my commandments and my laws?

29 Poglejte, zakaj Gospod vam je dal šabat, zato vam na šesti dan daje kruh dveh dni. Vsak človek naj ostane na svojem kraju, naj noben človek na sedmi dan ne gre iz svojega kraja.«

See, for that the LORD has given you the sabbath, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide you every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.

30 Tako je ljudstvo na sedmi dan počivalo.

So the people rested on the seventh day.

31 Izraelova hiša je njeno ime imenovala Mana, in ta je bila podobna koriandrovemu semenu, bela, in njen okus je bil podoben vafljem, narejenim z medom.

And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.

32 Mojzes je rekel: »To je stvar, ki jo je Gospod zapovedal: ›S tem napolnite gomer, da bo obdržano za vaše rodove, da bodo lahko videli kruh, s katerim sem vas hranil v divjini, ko sem vas izpeljal iz egiptovske dežele.‹«

And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commands, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread with which I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.

33 Mojzes je Aronu rekel: »Vzemi lonec in vanj stresi gomer, poln mane in ga položi pred Gospoda, da bo obdržan za vaše rodove.«

And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.

34 Kakor je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu, tako je Aron to položil pred Pričevanje, da bo obdržano.

As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

35 Izraelovi otroci so štirideset let jedli mano, dokler niso prišli v naseljeno deželo. Jedli so mano, dokler niso prišli do meja kánaanske dežele.

And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.

36 Torej gomer je desetina škafa.

Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
