3 — Esodo

1Now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro, his father in law, the priest of Madian: and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb.Or Mosè pasceva le pecore di Jetro sacerdote di Madian, suo suocero: e avendo condotto il gregge al fondo del deserto, giunse al monte di Dio Horeb.AND Moyses fed the sheepe of Iethro his father in law the priest of Madian: and hauing driuen the flock to the inner partes of the desert, he came to the mountaine of God, Horeb.Moyses autem pascebat oves Jethro soceri sui sacerdotis Madian: cumque minasset gregem ad interiora deserti, venit ad montem Dei Horeb. 2And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire, and was not burnt.E gli apparve il Signore in una fiamma ardente di mezzo ad un roveto: ed egli vedeva, che il roveto ardeva, e non si consumava.And our Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the middes of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire, and was not burnt.Apparuitque ei Dominus in flamma ignis de medio rubi: et videbat quod rubus arderet, et non combureretur. 3And Moses said: I will go, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt.Disse adunque Mosè: Anderò ad osservare questa visione grande, come mai il roveto non si consumi.Moyses therfore said: I wil goe, and see this great vision, why the bush is not burnt.Dixit ergo Moyses: Vadam, et videbo visionem hanc magnam, quare non comburatur rubus. 4And when the Lord saw that he went forward to see, he called to him out of the midst of the bush. and said: Moses, Moses. And he answered: Here I am.Ma il Signore veggendo, come egli si movea per andare a vedere, chiamollo di mezzo al roveto, e disse: Mosè, Mosè. Ed ei rispose: Son qui.And our Lord seeing that he went forward to see, he called him out of the middes of the bush, and said: Moyses, Moyses. Who answered: Here I am.Cernens autem Dominus quod pergeret ad videndum, vocavit eum de medio rubi, et ait: Moyses, Moyses. Qui respondit: Adsum. 5And he said: Come not nigh hither, put off the shoes from thy feet; for the place, whereon thou standest, is holy ground.E quegli: Non avvicinarti, disse, a questo luogo: sciogli da tuoi piedi i calzari: perocché santa è la terra dove tu hai i piedi.But he said: Approch not hither, loose of thy shoe from thy feet: for the place, wherin thou standest, is holie ground.At ille: Ne appropies, inquit, huc: solve calceamentum de pedibus tuis: locus enim, in quo stas, terra sancta est.

6And he said: I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Moses hid his face: for he durst not look at God.E disse: Io sono il Dio del padre tuo, il Dio d'Abramo, il Dio d'Isacco, e il Dio di Giacobbe. Si coperse Mosè la faccia: perocché non ardiva di mirare verso Dio.And he said: I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob. Moyses hid his face: for he durst nor looke against God.Et ait: Ego sum Deus patris tui, Deus Abraham, Deus Isaac et Deus Jacob. Abscondit Moyses faciem suam: non enim audebat aspicere contra Deum. 7And the Lord said to him: I have seen the affliction of my people in Egypt, and I have heard their cry because of the rigour of them that are over the works;E il Signore gli disse: Ho veduto l'afflizione del popol mio in Egitto, e ho udite le sue grida cagionate dalla durezza di coloro, che soprintendono a' lavori:To whom our Lord said: I haue sene the affliction of my people in Aegypt, and I haue heard their crye because of their rigour that ouersee the workes:Cui ait Dominus: Vidi afflictionem populi mei in Ægypto, et clamorem ejus audivi propter duritiam eorum qui præsunt operibus: 8And knowing their sorrow, I am come down to deliver them out of the hands of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land into a good and spacious land, into a land that floweth with milk and honey, to the places of the Chanaanite, and Hethite, and Amorrhite, and Pherezite, and Hevite, and Jebusite.E conoscendo i suoi affanni son disceso a liberarlo dalle mani degli Egiziani, per trarlo di quella terra ad una terra buona, e spaziosa, ad una terra, che scorre latte, e miele, alle regioni del Chananeo, e dell'Hetheo, e dell'Amorrheo, e del Pherezeo, e dell'Heveo, e del Jebuseo.and knowing their sorow, I am descended to deliuer them out of the handes of the Aegyptians, and to bring them out of that land into a land good, and large, into a land that floweth with milke and honie, to the places of the Chananeite, and Hetheite, and Amorrheite, and Pherezeite, and Heueite, and Iebuseite.et sciens dolorem ejus, descendi ut liberem eum de manibus Ægyptiorum, et educam de terra illa in terram bonam, et spatiosam, in terram quæ fluit lacte et melle, ad loca Chananæi et Hethæi, et Amorrhæi, et Pherezæi, et Hevæi, et Jebusæi. 9For the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I have seen their affliction, wherewith they are oppressed by the Egyptians.Le grida, io dico, de' figliuoli d'Israele sono pervenute a me: e ho mirata l'afflizione loro, sotto di cui sono oppressi dagli Egiziani.Therfore the crye of the children of Israel is come vnto me and I haue sene their affliction, wherwith they are oppressed by the Aegyptians.Clamor ergo filiorum Israël venit ad me: vidique afflictionem eorum, qua ab Ægyptiis opprimuntur.

10But come, and I will send thee to Pharao, that thou mayst bring forth my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.Ma vieni, e io ti spedirò a Faraone, affinché tu tragga il popolo mio, i figliuoli di Israele dall'Egitto,But come, and I wil send thee to Pharao, that thou mayest being forth my people, the children of Israel out of Aegypt.Sed veni, et mittam te ad Pharaonem, ut educas populum meum, filios Israël, de Ægypto. 11And Moses said to God: Who am I that I should go to Pharao, and should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?Disse Mosè a Dio: Chi son io per andare a trovar Faraone, e per trarre i figliuoli d'Israele dall'Egitto?And moyses said to God: Who am I that I shal •oe to Pharao, and bring forth the children of Israel out of Aegypt?Dixitque Moyses ad Deum: Quis sum ego ut vadam ad Pharaonem, et educam filios Israël de Ægypto ? 12And he said to him: I will be with thee; and this thou shalt have for a sign that I have sent thee: When thou shalt have brought my people out of Egypt, thou shalt offer sacrifice to God upon this mountain.Ed ei gli disse: Io sarò con te: e il segno, che tu avrai dell'averti io mandato, sarà questo: Quando avrai tratto il mio popolo fuor dell'Egitto, offrirai sacrifizii a Dio sopra di questo monte.Who said to him: I wil be with thee: and this thou shalt haue for a signe, that I haue sent thee: When thou shalt haue brought my people out of Aegypt, thou shalt sacrifice to God vpon this mountaine.Qui dixit ei: Ego ero tecum: et hoc habebis signum, quod miserim te: cum eduxeris populum meum de Ægypto, immolabis Deo super montem istum. 13Moses said to God: Lo, I shall go to the children of Israel, and say to them: The God of your fathers hath sent me to you. If they shall say to me: What is his name? What shall I say to them?Disse Mosè a Dio: Ecco ch'io anderò a trovare i figliuoli d'Israele, e dirò loro: Il Dio dei padri vostri mi ha spedito a voi. S'ei mi diranno: Qual è il suo nome? che dovrò io dir loro?Moyses said to God: Loe I shal goe to the children of Israel, and say to them: The God of your fathers hath sent me to you. If they shal say to me: What is his name? What shal I say to them?Ait Moyses ad Deum: Ecce ego vadam ad filios Israël, et dicam eis: Deus patrum vestrorum misit me ad vos. Si dixerint mihi: Quod est nomen ejus ? quid dicam eis ? 14God said to Moses: I AM WHO AM. He said: Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: HE WHO IS, hath sent me to you.Disse Dio a Mosè: io sono quegli, che sono. Così dirai a' figliuoli di Israele: colui, che è, mi ha spedito a voi.God said to Moyses: I AM WHICH AM. He said: Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: HE WHICH IS, hath sent me to you.Dixit Deus ad Moysen: Ego sum qui sum. Ait: Sic dices filiis Israël: Qui est, misit me ad vos.

15And God said again to Moses: Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: The Lord God of your fathers the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob hath sent me to you; this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.E di nuovo disse Dio a Mosè: Queste cose dirai a' figliuoli d'Israele: Il Signore Dio de' padri vostri, il Dio di Abramo, il Dio d'Isacco, e il Dio di Giacobbe mi ha mandato a voi. Questo nome io ho in eterno, e con questo mi rammenteranno per tutte le generazioni.And God said againe to Moyses: These thinges shalt thou say to the children of Israel: The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob hath sent me, to you: this is my name for euer, and this is my memorial into generation and to generation.Dixitque iterum Deus ad Moysen: Hæc dices filiis Israël: Dominus Deus patrum vestrorum, Deus Abraham, Deus Isaac et Deus Jacob, misit me ad vos: hoc nomen mihi est in æternum, et hoc memoriale meum in generationem et generationem. 16Go and gather together the ancients of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared to me, saying: Visiting I have visited you; and I have seen all that hath befallen you in Egypt.Va', e raduna i seniori d'Israele, e dirai loro: Il Signore Dio dei padri vostri mi è apparito, il Dio d'Abramo, il Dio d'Isacco, il Dio di Giacobbe, e ha detto: Io vi ho visitati attentamente, e ho veduto tutto quel che è stato di voi nell'Egitto.Goe, and geather together the ancients of Israel, and thou shalt say to them The Lord God of your fathers hath appeared to me the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob, saying: Visiting I haue visited you: and I haue sene al thinges that haue chanced to you in Aegypt:Vade, et congrega seniores Israël, et dices ad eos: Dominus Deus patrum vestrorum apparuit mihi, Deus Abraham, Deus Isaac et Deus Jacob, dicens: Visitans visitavi vos: et vidi omnia quæ acciderunt vobis in Ægypto. 17And I have said the word to bring you forth out of the affliction of Egypt, into the land of the Chanaanite, and Hethite, and Amorrhite, and Pherezite, and Hevite, and Jebusite, to a land that floweth with milk and honey.E ho decretato di trarvi dalla oppressione d'Egitto alla terra del Chananeo, e dell'Hetheo, e dell'Amorrheo, e del Pherezeo e dell'Heveo, e del Jebuseo, a una terra, che scorre latte, e miele.and I haue said the word to bring you forth out of the affliction of Aegypt, into the land of the Chananeite, and Hetheite, and Amorrheite, and Pherezeite, and Heueite, and Iebuseite, to a Land that floweth with milke & honie.Et dixi ut educam vos de afflictione Ægypti in terram Chananæi, et Hethæi, et Amorrhæi, et Pherezæi, et Hevæi, et Jebusæi, ad terram fluentem lacte et melle. 18And they shall hear thy voice; and thou shalt go in, thou and the ancients of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and thou shalt say to him: The Lord God of the Hebrews hath called us; we will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, to sacrifice unto the Lord our God.Eglino ascolteranno la tua voce: e anderai tu co' seniori d'Israele dinanzi al re d'Egitto, e gli dirai: Il Signore Dio degli Ebrei ci ha chiamati: noi faremo tre giornate di viaggio nella solitudine per offerir sacrifizio al Signore Dio nostro.And they shal heare thy voice: and thou shalt enter in, thou and the ancientes of Israel to the king of Aegypt, and thou shalt say to him: The Lord God of the Hebrewes hath called vs: We wil goe three dayes iourney into the wildernes, to sacrifice vnto the Lord our God.Et audient vocem tuam: ingredierisque tu, et seniores Israël, ad regem Ægypti, et dices ad eum: Dominus Deus Hebræorum vocavit nos: ibimus viam trium dierum in solitudinem, ut immolemus Domino Deo nostro.

19But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go, but by a mighty hand.Ma io so, che il re di Egitto non vi lascerà andare, se non forzato da mano potente.But I know that the king of Aegypt wil not dismisse you to goe but by mightie hand.Sed ego scio quod non dimittet vos rex Ægypti ut eatis nisi per manum validam. 20For I will stretch forth my hand, and will strike Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst of them: after these he will let you go.Perocché io stenderò la mia mano, e flagellerò l'Egitto con tutti i prodigi, che io sono per fare tra di loro: dopo questi vi lascerà andare.For I wil stretch forth my hand, and wil strike Aegypt in al my marueils, which I wil doe in the middes of them: after these he wil dismisse you.Extendam enim manum meam, et percutiam Ægyptum in cunctis mirabilibus meis, quæ facturus sum in medio eorum: post hæc dimittet vos. 21And I will give favour to this people, in the sight of the Egyptians: and when you go forth, you shall not depart empty:E farò sì, che questo popolo troverà grazia al cospetto degli Egiziani; e quando partirete, non uscirete con le mani vote:And I wil geue grace to this people, in the sight of the Aegyptians: and when you shal goe forth, you shal not depart emptie:Daboque gratiam populo huic coram Ægyptiis: et cum egrediemini, non exibitis vacui: 22But every woman shall ask of her neighbour, and of her that is in her house, vessels of silver and of gold, and raiment: and you shall put them on your sons and daughters, and shall spoil Egypt.Ma ogni donna chiederà alla sua vicina, e alla sua casigliana, vasi d'argento, e d'oro, e vestimenta: e li porrete addosso a' vostri figliuoli, e alle vostre figlie, e spoglierete l'Egitto.but ech woman shal aske of her neighbour and of her that is in house with her, vessels of siluer and of gold, and rayment: and you shal lay it vpon your sonnes and daughters, and shal spoyle Aegypt.sed postulabit mulier a vicina sua et ab hospita sua, vasa argentea et aurea, ac vestes: ponetisque eas super filios et filias vestras, et spoliabitis Ægyptum.
