2 Mojzes 2
1 Odšel je mož iz Lévijeve hiše in za ženo vzel Lévijevo hčer.
And there was a certain man of the tribe of Levi, who took as wife one of the daughters of Levi.
2 Ženska je spočela in rodila sina in ko je videla, da je bil čeden otrok, ga je skrivala tri mesece.
And she conceived, and bore a male child; and having seen that he was fair, they hid him three months.
3 Ko pa ga ni mogla več skrivati, je zanj vzela pletenico iz ločja, jo namazala z blatom in s smolo in vanjo položila otroka in to položila v rogoz poleg rečnega brega.
And when they could no longer hide him, his mother took for him an ark, and besmeared it with bitumen, and cast the child into it, and put it in the ooze by the river.
4 Njegova sestra pa je stala daleč stran, da izve kaj se bo z njim zgodilo.
And his sister was watching from a distance, to learn what would happen to him.
5 In dol je prišla faraonova hči, da se pri reki umije, njene služabnice pa so hodile vzdolž rečnega brega in ko je med rogozom zagledala pletenico, je poslala svojo služabnico, da odide ponjo.
And the daughter of Pharao came down to the river to bathe; and her maids walked by the river's side, and having seen the ark in the ooze, she sent her maid, and took it up.
6 Ko jo je ta odprla, je zagledala otroka in glej, dojenček je jokal. Do njega je imela sočutje ter rekla: »To je eden izmed hebrejskih otrok.«
And having opened it, she sees the babe weeping in the ark: and the daughter of Pharao had compassion on it, and said, This [is one] of the Hebrew's children.
7 Potem je njegova sestra rekla faraonovi hčeri: »Ali naj grem in k tebi pokličem dojiljo izmed hebrejskih žensk, da bo lahko otroka dojila zate?«
And his sister said to the daughter of Pharao, Will you that I call to you a nurse of the Hebrews, and shall she suckle the child for you?
8 Faraonova hči ji je rekla: »Pojdi.« Deklica je odšla in poklicala otrokovo mater.
And the daughter of Pharao said, Go: and the young woman went, and called the mother of the child.
9 Faraonova hči ji je rekla: »Odnesi tega otroka proč in ga dôji zame, jaz pa ti bom dajala tvoja plačila.« In ženska je vzela otroka ter ga dojila.
And the daughter of Pharao said to her, Take care of this child, and suckled it for me, and I will give you the wages; and the woman took the child, and suckled it.
10 Otrok je zrastel in privedla ga je k faraonovi hčeri in ta je postal njen sin. Njegovo ime je imenovala Mojzes. Rekla je: »Ker sem ga potegnila iz vode.«
And when the boy was grown, she brought him to the daughter of Pharao, and he became her son; and she called his name, Moses, saying, I took him out of the water.
11 Pripetilo se je v tistih dneh, ko je Mojzes odrasel, da je odšel k svojim bratom, gledal na njihova bremena in oprezal za Egipčanom, ki je udarjal Hebrejca, enega izmed njegovih bratov.
And it came to pass in that length of time, that Moses having grown, went out to his brethren the sons of Israel: and having noticed their distress, he sees an Egyptian striking a certain Hebrew of his brethren the children of Israel.
12 Pogledal je to pot in tisto pot in ko je videl, da tam ni bilo nobenega človeka, je Egipčana usmrtil in ga skril v pesek.
And having looked round this way and that way, he sees no one; and he struck the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 Ko je drug dan odšel ven, glej, dva moža izmed Hebrejcev sta se skupaj prepirala in temu, ki je storil napačno, je rekel: »Čemu udarjaš svojega rojaka?«
And having gone out the second day he sees two Hebrew men fighting; and he says to the injurer, Therefore smite you your neighbor?
14 Ta pa je rekel: »Kdo te je naredil princa in sodnika nad nama? Ali me nameravaš ubiti, kakor si ubil Egipčana?« Mojzes se je zbal ter rekel: »Ta stvar se je zagotovo izvedela.«
And he said, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? will you kill me as you yesterday killed the Egyptian? Then Moses was alarmed, and said, If [it be] thus, this matter has become known.
15 Torej, ko je faraon slišal to stvar, je iskal Mojzesa, da ga ubije. Mojzes pa je pobegnil izpred faraonovega obličja in prebival v midjánski deželi in se usedel poleg vodnjaka.
And Pharao heard this matter, and sought to kill Moses; and Moses departed from the presence of Pharao, and lived in the land of Madiam; and having come into the land of Madiam, he sat on the well.
16 Torej duhovnik iz Midjána je imel sedem hčera in prišle so, zajele vodo in napolnile korita, da bi napojile trop svojega očeta.
And the priest of Madiam had seven daughters, feeding the flock of their father Jothor; and they came and drew water until they filled their pitchers, to water the flock of their father Jothor.
17 Prišli pa so pastirji ter jih odgnali proč, toda Mojzes je vstal, jim pomagal in napojil njihov trop.
And the shepherds came, and were driving them away; and Moses rose up and rescued them, and drew water for them, and watered their sheep.
18 Ko so prišle k svojemu očetu Reguélu, je rekel: »Kako je to, da ste danes prišle tako zgodaj?«
And they came to Raguel their father; and he said to them, Why have you come so quickly today?
19 Rekle so: »Egipčan nas je osvobodil iz roke pastirjev in nam prav tako zajel dovolj vode in napojil trop.«
And they said, An Egyptian delivered us from the shepherds, and drew water for us and watered our sheep.
20 Svojim hčeram je rekel: »In kje je? Zakaj je to, da ste človeka pustile? Pokličite ga, da bo lahko jedel kruh.«
And he said to his daughters, And where is he? and why have you left the man? call him therefore, that he may eat bread.
21 Mojzes je bil zadovoljen, da prebiva s človekom in ta je Mojzesu dal svojo hčer Cipóro.
And Moses was established with the man, and he gave Sepphora his daughter to Moses to wife.
22 Rodila mu je sina in njegovo ime je imenoval Geršóm, kajti rekel je: »Tujec sem bil v tuji deželi.«
And the woman conceived and bore a son, and Moses called his name Gersam, saying, I am a sojourner in a strange land.
23 Pripetilo se je tekom časa, da je egiptovski kralj umrl, Izraelovi otroci pa so vzdihovali zaradi razloga suženjstva in vpili in njihovo vpitje je zaradi razloga suženjstva prišlo do Boga.
And in those days after a length of time, the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel groaned because of their tasks, and cried, and their cry because of their tasks went up to God.
24 Bog je slišal njihovo stokanje in Bog se je spomnil svoje zaveze z Abrahamom, Izakom in Jakobom.
And God heard their groanings, and God remembered his covenant made with Abraam and Isaac and Jacob.
25 Bog je pogledal na Izraelove otroke in Bog je imel do njih spoštovanje.
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and was made known to them.
