2 Mojzes 3
1 Torej Mojzes je varoval trop svojega tasta Jitra, midjánskega duhovnika in vodil trop k zadnjemu delu puščave in prišel h gori Boga, k Horebu.
Now Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to God’s mountain, to Horeb.
2 Gospodov angel se mu je prikazal v ognjenem plamenu iz srede grma in pogledal je in glej, grm je gorel z ognjem, pa grm ni bil použit.
The LORD’s angel appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the middle of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
3 Mojzes je rekel: »Sedaj se bom obrnil vstran in pogledal ta velik prizor, zakaj grm ne zgori.«
Moses said, “I will go now, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burned.”
4 Ko je Gospod videl, da se je obrnil vstran, da bi videl, je Bog iz srede grma zaklical k njemu ter rekel: »Mojzes, Mojzes.« Ta je rekel: »Tukaj sem.«
When the LORD saw that he came over to see, God called to him out of the middle of the bush, and said, “Moses! Moses!” He said, “Here I am.”
5 Rekel je: »Ne približaj se, svoje čevlje sezuj s svojih stopal, kajti prostor, na katerem stojiš, je sveta zemlja.«
He said, “Do not come close. Take off your sandals, for the place you are standing on is holy ground.”
6 Poleg tega je rekel: »Jaz sem Bog tvojega očeta, Bog Abrahama, Bog Izaka in Bog Jakoba.« In Mojzes je skril svoj obraz, kajti bal se je, da bi pogledal na Boga.
Moreover he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look at God.
7 Gospod je rekel: »Zagotovo sem videl stisko svojega ljudstva, ki je v Egiptu in slišal njihovo vpitje zaradi njihovih preddelavcev, kajti poznam njihove bridkosti
The LORD said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.
8 in prišel sem dol, da jih osvobodim iz roke Egipčanov in jih privedem iz te dežele gor v dobro in veliko deželo, deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med, v deželo Kánaancev, Hetejcev, Amoréjcev, Perizéjcev, Hivéjcev in Jebusejcev.
I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
9 Zdaj torej, glej, k meni je prišlo vpitje Izraelovih otrok in videl sem tudi zatiranje, s kakršnim so jih Egipčani zatirali.
Now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to me. Moreover I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
10 Pridi torej zdaj in jaz te bom poslal k faraonu, da lahko privedeš moje ljudstvo, Izraelove otroke, iz Egipta.«
Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”
11 Mojzes pa je Bogu rekel: »Kdo sem jaz, da bi šel k faraonu in da bi lahko Izraelove otroke privedel iz Egipta?«
Moses said to God, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”
12 Rekel je: »Zagotovo bom s teboj in to ti bodi simbol, da sem te jaz poslal. Ko boš ljudstvo privedel iz Egipta, boste na tej gori služili Bogu.«
He said, “Certainly I will be with you. This will be the token to you, that I have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.”
13 Mojzes je Bogu rekel: »Glej, ko pridem k Izraelovim otrokom in jim bom rekel: ›K vam me je poslal Bog vaših očetov, ‹ pa mi bodo rekli: ›Kakšno je njegovo ime?‹ Kaj naj jim rečem?«
Moses said to God, “Behold, when I come to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what should I tell them?”
14 Bog je Mojzesu rekel: »JAZ SEM, KI SEM.« Rekel je: »Tako boš govoril Izraelovim otrokom: ›JAZ SEM me je poslal k vam.‹«
God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM,” and he said, “You shall tell the children of Israel this: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
15 Bog je Mojzesu poleg tega povedal: »Tako boš rekel Izraelovim otrokom: ›K vam me je poslal Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, Bog Abrahama, Bog Izaka in Bog Jakoba. To je moje ime na veke in to je moj spomin vsem rodovom.‹
God said moreover to Moses, “You shall tell the children of Israel this, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.
16 Pojdi in zberi skupaj vse Izraelove starešine ter jim reci: ›Prikazal se mi je Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, Bog Abrahama, Izaka in Jakoba, rekoč: ›Zagotovo sem vas obiskal in videl to, kar vam je storjeno v Egiptu.‹«
Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and tell them, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt.
17 In rekel sem: »Jaz vas bom privedel gor iz egiptovske stiske v deželo Kánaancev, Hetejcev, Amoréjcev, Perizéjcev, Hivéjcev in Jebusejcev, v deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med.
I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, to a land flowing with milk and honey.”’
18 Prisluhnili bodo tvojemu glasu in ti boš prišel, ti in Izraelove starešine, k egiptovskemu kralju in mu boste rekli: › Gospod, Bog Hebrejcev, se je srečal z nami in sedaj nas pusti iti, rotimo te, tri dni potovanja v divjino, da bomo lahko žrtvovali Gospodu, našemu Bogu.‹
They will listen to your voice. You shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and you shall tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD, our God.’
19 Prepričan pa sem, da vam egiptovski kralj ne bo pustil oditi, ne, niti z mogočno roko ne.
I know that the king of Egypt will not give you permission to go, no, not by a mighty hand.
20 Svojo roko bom iztegnil in Egipt udaril z vsemi čudeži, ki jih bom storil v njihovi sredi in nató vas bo pustil oditi.
I will reach out my hand and strike Egypt with all my wonders which I will do among them, and after that he will let you go.
21 Temu ljudstvu bom dal naklonjenost v očeh Egipčanov in zgodilo se bo, ko greste, da ne boste odšli prazni,
I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and it will happen that when you go, you shall not go empty-handed.
22 temveč si bo vsaka ženska izposodila od sosede in od tiste, ki začasno biva v njeni hiši, dragocenosti iz srebra in dragocenosti iz zlata in oblačil, in vi jih boste nadeli na svoje sinove in na svoje hčere in boste oplenili Egipčane.«
But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, and of her who visits her house, jewels of silver, jewels of gold, and clothing. You shall put them on your sons, and on your daughters. You shall plunder the Egyptians.”
