¹In GOSPOD reče Mojzesu: Poglej, postavljam te za boga Faraonu, in Aron, brat tvoj, bode tvoj prorok.

¹And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `See, I have given thee a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron thy brother is thy prophet;

²Ti boš govoril vse, kar ti ukažem, in Aron, brat tvoj, bo govoril Faraonu, da pusti sinove Izraelove iz dežele svoje.

²thou — thou dost speak all that I command thee, and Aaron thy brother doth speak unto Pharaoh, and he hath sent the sons of Israel out of his land.

³Jaz pa zakrknem srce Faraonu in pomnožim znamenja svoja in čudeže svoje v deželi Egiptovski.

³`And I harden the heart of Pharaoh, and have multiplied My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt,

⁴In Faraon vas ne bo poslušal; in položim roko svojo na Egipt in izvedem svoje vojske, svoje ljudstvo, sinove Izraelove, iz Egiptovske dežele z velikimi sodbami.

⁴and Pharaoh doth not hearken, and I have put My hand on Egypt, and have brought out My hosts, My people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt by great judgments;

⁵In spoznali bodo Egipčani, da sem jaz GOSPOD, ko iztegnem roko svojo nad Egiptom in izpeljem sinove Izraelove izmed njih.

⁵and the Egyptians have known that I [am] Jehovah, in My stretching out My hand against Egypt; and I have brought out the sons of Israel from their midst.`

⁶Mojzes in Aron sta torej storila tako; kakor jima je ukazal GOSPOD, tako sta storila.

⁶And Moses doth — Aaron also — as Jehovah commanded them; so have they done;

⁷In Mojzes je bil osemdeset let star, Aron pa triinosemdeset let, ko sta govorila Faraonu.

⁷and Moses [is] a son of eighty years, and Aaron [is] a son of eighty and three years, in their speaking unto Pharaoh.

⁸In govoril je GOSPOD Mojzesu in Aronu, rekoč:

⁸And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

⁹Ko bo z vama govoril Faraon in rekel: Naredita za sebe kak čudež! tedaj véli Aronu: Vzemi palico svojo in vrzi jo na tla pred Faraonom; postane naj velika kača!

⁹`When Pharaoh speaketh unto you, saying, Give for yourselves a wonder; then thou hast said unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast before Pharaoh — it becometh a monster.`

¹⁰In gresta Mojzes in Aron k Faraonu in storita, kakor je ukazal GOSPOD: Aron je namreč vrgel palico svojo na tla pred Faraonom in pred služabniki njegovimi, in postala je velika kača.

¹⁰And Moses goeth in — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and they do so as Jehovah hath commanded; and Aaron casteth his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it becometh a monster.

¹¹Tedaj pokliče tudi Faraon modrijane in čarodeje; in napravili so tudi oni, pismouki egiptovski, enako s čarovništvom svojim:

¹¹And Pharaoh also calleth for wise men, and for sorcerers; and the scribes of Egypt, they also, with their flashings, do so,

¹²vsak je vrgel palico svojo na tla, in postale so velike kače; a Aronova palica je požrla njih palice.

¹²and they cast down each his rod, and they become monsters, and the rod of Aaron swalloweth their rods;

¹³Ali srce Faraonovo se je otrdilo, in ni ju poslušal, kakor je bil govoril GOSPOD.

¹³and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.

¹⁴In reče GOSPOD Mojzesu: Srce Faraonovo je trdo; brani se izpustiti ljudstvo.

¹⁴And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `The heart of Pharaoh hath been hard, he hath refused to send the people away;

¹⁵Idi k Faraonu zjutraj, glej, pojde ven k vodi; in stopi mu naproti ob bregu Nilovem, in palico, ki se je izpremenila v kačo, vzemi v roko svojo

¹⁵go unto Pharaoh in the morning, lo, he is going out to the water, and thou hast stood to meet him by the edge of the River, and the rod which was turned to a serpent thou dost take in thy hand,

¹⁶in govori k njemu: GOSPOD, Bog Hebrejcev, me je poslal k tebi s tem naročilom: Odpusti ljudstvo moje, da mi služi v puščavi; in glej, dozdaj nisi poslušal.

¹⁶and thou hast said unto him: Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Send My people away, and they serve Me in the wilderness; and lo, thou hast not hearkened hitherto.

¹⁷Tako pravi GOSPOD: Po tem spoznaš, da sem jaz GOSPOD: glej, udarim s palico, ki je v roki moji, po vodi, ki je v reki, in izpremenila se bo v kri.

¹⁷`Thus said Jehovah: By this thou knowest that I [am] Jehovah; lo, I am smiting with the rod which [is] in my hand, on the waters which [are] in the River, and they have been turned to blood,

¹⁸Ribe pa, ki so v reki, poginejo, in reka se usmradi, in gnusilo se bo Egipčanom piti vodo iz reke.

¹⁸and the fish that [are] in the River die, and the River hath stank, and the Egyptians have been wearied of drinking waters from the River.`

¹⁹In reče GOSPOD Mojzesu: Véli Aronu: Vzemi palico svojo in iztegni roko svojo nad vodami v Egiptu, nad njegovimi rekami, nad njegovimi vodotoki, nad njegovimi ribniki in nad vsemi vodnjaki njegovimi, da postanejo kri; in kri bode po vsej deželi Egiptovski, i v lesenih i v kamenitih posodah.

¹⁹And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand against the waters of Egypt, against their streams, against their rivers, and against their ponds, and against all their collections of waters; and they are blood — and there hath been blood in all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [those of] stone.`

²⁰In storila sta tako Mojzes in Aron, kakor je bil ukazal GOSPOD: povzdignil je palico in je udaril po vodi v reki, pred očmi Faraonovimi in pred očmi služabnikov njegovih; in vsa voda, kar je je bilo v reki, se je izpremenila v kri.

²⁰And Moses and Aaron do so, as Jehovah hath commanded, and he lifteth up [his hand] with the rod, and smiteth the waters which [are] in the River, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, and all the waters which [are] in the River are turned to blood,

²¹In ribe, ki so bile v reki, so poginile, in reka se je usmradila, in Egipčani niso mogli piti vode iz reke; in bila je kri po vsej deželi Egiptovski.

²¹and the fish which [is] in the River hath died, and the River stinketh, and the Egyptians have not been able to drink water from the River; and the blood is in all the land of Egypt.

²²A pismouki egiptovski so naredili enako s čarovništvom svojim. In srce Faraonovo se je otrdilo in ni ju poslušal, kakor je bil govoril GOSPOD.

²²And the scribes of Egypt do so with their flashings, and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken,

²³In obrnil se je Faraon in šel na svoj dom, in niti to mu ni seglo do srca.

²³and Pharaoh turneth and goeth in unto his house, and hath not set his heart even to this;

²⁴In vsi Egipčani so kopali poleg reke, da dobe pitne vode, zakaj vode iz reke niso mogli piti.In preteklo je celih sedem dni, odkar je GOSPOD udaril reko.

²⁴and all the Egyptians seek water round about the river to drink, for they have not been able to drink of the waters of the River.

²⁵In preteklo je celih sedem dni, odkar je GOSPOD udaril reko.

²⁵And seven days are completed after Jehovah`s smiting the River,
