出埃及 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
摩西和亚伦见法老
5 之后，摩西和亚伦去见法老，对他说：“以色列的上帝耶和华说，‘放我的子民走，让他们到旷野去为我守节期。’” 2 法老说：“耶和华是谁？我凭什么要听从祂，放走以色列人？我不认识祂，也不会让以色列人离开！” 3 摩西和亚伦说：“希伯来人的上帝向我们显现了。求你容我们走三天的路程，到旷野去向我们的上帝耶和华献祭，请你让我们去吧，免得祂用刀剑、瘟疫来攻击我们。” 4 埃及王说：“摩西、亚伦，你们竟敢煽动百姓旷工！快回去工作！” 5 法老又说：“这地方的以色列人如此众多，你竟叫他们停止工作！” 6 当天，法老就对埃及监工和以色列人的工头下令： 7 “从今天开始，不许再供应草给他们制砖，叫他们自己去捡， 8 但上交的砖的数量要和往常一样，一块也不可少。因为他们懒惰，所以才嚷着要去给他们的上帝献祭。 9 你们要加重他们的工作，他们就无暇再听那些蛊惑人心的话了！”
10 于是，那些监工和工头就出来向百姓宣布：“法老下令不再供应草给你们制砖。 11 你们要自己设法去找，但上交的砖一块也不能少。” 12 百姓只好在埃及全国收集碎禾秸当草用。 13 监工催逼他们说：“你们要完成每天规定的数目，像从前有草时一样。” 14 他们又鞭打以色列人的工头，说：“你们这两天为什么没有像从前一样完成规定的砖数？”
15 以色列人的工头来见法老，向他哀求说：“你为什么要这样对待仆人们？ 16 监工不给仆人们草，却命令我们做砖，还打我们，其实是你百姓的错。” 17 法老说：“你们是懒惰的人，懒惰的人！所以才嚷着要去给耶和华献祭。 18 回去继续工作！我不再供应草给你们，但砖要如数交齐。” 19 以色列人的工头听见每天做的砖数不可减少，就知道情况不妙。 20 他们从法老那里出来的时候，遇见摩西和亚伦站在外面等候， 21 便埋怨二人说：“愿耶和华鉴察、惩罚你们！你们使我们在法老和他的臣仆面前有了臭名，使他们有借口来杀我们。”
22 摩西回到耶和华那里说：“主啊！你为什么这样苦待你的子民呢？为什么要派我去呢？ 23 自从我去法老那里奉你的名发言后，他更加虐待你的子民，你并没有拯救他们。”
Exodus 5
King James Version
5 And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.
2 And Pharaoh said, Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go.
3 And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the Lord our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.
4 And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the people from their works? get you unto your burdens.
5 And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.
6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
7 Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.
8 And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish ought thereof: for they be idle; therefore they cry, saying, Let us go and sacrifice to our God.
9 Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words.
10 And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.
11 Go ye, get you straw where ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be diminished.
12 So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.
13 And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil your works, your daily tasks, as when there was straw.
14 And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and to day, as heretofore?
15 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?
16 There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and, behold, thy servants are beaten; but the fault is in thine own people.
17 But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore ye say, Let us go and do sacrifice to the Lord.
18 Go therefore now, and work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye deliver the tale of bricks.
19 And the officers of the children of Israel did see that they were in evil case, after it was said, Ye shall not minish ought from your bricks of your daily task.
20 And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh:
21 And they said unto them, The Lord look upon you, and judge; because ye have made our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay us.
22 And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou so evil entreated this people? why is it that thou hast sent me?
23 For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all.
Exodus 5
English Standard Version
Making Bricks Without Straw
5 Afterward Moses and Aaron went and said to Pharaoh, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Let my people go, that they may hold (A)a feast to me in the wilderness.’” 2 But Pharaoh said, (B)“Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, and moreover, (C)I will not let Israel go.” 3 Then they said, “The (D)God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go a three days' journey into the wilderness that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God, lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.” 4 But the king of Egypt said to them, “Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people away from their work? Get back to your (E)burdens.” 5 And Pharaoh said, “Behold, (F)the people of the land are now many,[a] and you make them rest from their burdens!” 6 The same day Pharaoh commanded the (G)taskmasters of the people and their (H)foremen, 7 “You shall no longer give the people straw to make bricks, as in the past; let them go and gather straw for themselves. 8 But the number of bricks that they made in the past you shall impose on them, you shall by no means reduce it, for they are idle. Therefore they cry, ‘Let us go and offer sacrifice to our God.’ 9 Let heavier work be laid on the men that they may labor at it and pay no regard to lying words.”
10 So the (I)taskmasters and the foremen of the people went out and said to the people, “Thus says Pharaoh, ‘I will not give you straw. 11 Go and get your straw yourselves wherever you can find it, but your work will not be reduced in the least.’” 12 So the people were scattered throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw. 13 The (J)taskmasters were urgent, saying, “Complete your work, your daily task each day, as when there was straw.” 14 And the foremen of the people of Israel, whom Pharaoh's (K)taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked, “Why have you not done all your task of making bricks today and yesterday, as in the past?”
15 Then the foremen of the people of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, “Why do you treat your servants like this? 16 No straw is given to your servants, yet they say to us, ‘Make bricks!’ And behold, your servants are beaten; but the fault is in your own people.” 17 But he said, “You are idle, you are idle; that is why you say, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.’ 18 Go now and work. No straw will be given you, but you must still deliver the same number of bricks.” 19 The foremen of the people of Israel saw that they were in trouble when they said, “You shall by no means reduce your number of bricks, your daily task each day.” 20 They met Moses and Aaron, who were waiting for them, as they came out from Pharaoh; 21 and (L)they said to them, “The Lord look on you and judge, because you have made us stink in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and have put a sword in their hand to kill us.”
22 Then Moses turned to the Lord and said, “O Lord, why have you done evil to this people? Why did you ever send me? 23 For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has done evil to this people, and you have not delivered your people at all.”

Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Mojsije i Aron pred faraonom
5 Nakon toga su Mojsije i Aron otišli faraonu i rekli: »Ovako kaže BOG, koji je Izraelov Bog: ‘Pusti moj narod da ode u pustinju, kako bi mogli održati svetkovinu meni u čast.’«
2 »Tko je taj BOG da bih ga poslušao i pustio Izraelce?« rekao je faraon. »Ne poznajem tog BOGA i neću pustiti Izraelce.«
3 »Bog Hebreja sastao se s nama«, rekli su. »Zato nas pusti da odemo tri dana hoda u pustinju i prinesemo žrtvu svome BOGU, da nas ne udari bolešću ili mačem.«
4 Nato im je egipatski kralj rekao: »Mojsije i Arone, zašto odvlačite narod od rada? Vratite se na posao!« 5 I dodao: »Sad kad je vaš narod mnogobrojniji od naroda ove zemlje, namjeravate ga odvratiti od posla.«
Faraon kažnjava Izraelce
6 Istog je dana faraon zapovjedio goničima robova i nadzornicima: 7 »Nemojte tom narodu više dobavljati slamu za izradu cigala kao prije. Neka idu i sami je sakupljaju. 8 No zahtijevajte od njih da izrađuju isti broj cigala kao prije—ne smanjujte ga ni za jednu ciglu! Lijeni su pa viču: ‘Pustite nas da prinesemo žrtvu svome Bogu!’ 9 Pritisnite te ljude teškim poslom. Tako će raditi, a ne obraćati pažnju na laži.«
10 Tada su goniči robova i nadzornici otišli i rekli izraelskom narodu: »Ovako kaže faraon: ‘Neću vam više dobavljati slamu. 11 Idite i sami je sakupljajte gdje god je možete naći, ali vam se posao neće nimalo smanjiti.’«
12 Narod se raštrkao po čitavom Egiptu da bi sakupljao strnjiku[a] umjesto slame. 13 Goniči su ih pritom požurivali: »Svakog dana morate završiti istu dnevnu normu kao i kad ste dobivali slamu.« 14 Faraonovi su goniči robova tukli Izraelce koje su postavili za nadzornike i pitali: »Zašto ne izrađujete propisanu količinu cigala, kao što ste prije činili?«
15 Tada su nadzornici Izraelci otišli faraonu i zavapili: »Zašto tako postupaš sa svojim slugama? 16 Više nam ne daju slamu, a svejedno nas traže da izrađujemo cigle. Gledaj kako tuku tvoje sluge, a kriv je tvoj narod.«
17 »Lijeni ste vi, lijeni«, rekao je faraon, »i zato govorite: ‘Pustite nas da prinesemo žrtvu BOGU.’ 18 A sad, na posao! Nećete dobiti slamu, ali morate napraviti istu količinu cigala kao i prije.«
19 Kad im je rečeno da ne smiju smanjiti dnevnu količinu cigala, nadzornici Izraelci shvatili su da su u nevolji.
20 Odlazeći od faraona, naišli su na Mojsija i Arona, koji su ih čekali. 21 Rekli su im: »Neka sad BOG vidi što ste učinili i neka vam sudi! Omrazili ste nas faraonu i njegovim službenicima! Kao da ste im stavili mač u ruke, da nas pobiju.«
Bog obećava oslobođenje
22 Mojsije se vratio BOGU i rekao: »Gospodaru, zašto si tako loše postupio prema ovom narodu? Zašto si me uopće poslao? 23 Otkad sam otišao u tvoje ime govoriti faraonu, on s narodom postupa još gore, a ti nisi učinio ništa da bi ih izbavio.«
