1 Ja Mooses kaitsi appensa Jetron, Midianin papin, lampaita. Ja kun hän kerran ajoi lampaita erämaan tuolle puolen, tuli hän Jumalan vuoren, Hoorebin, juurelle.

2 Silloin Herran enkeli ilmestyi hänelle tulen liekissä keskellä orjantappurapensasta; ja hän näki, että pensas paloi ilmitulessa, mutta pensas ei kuitenkaan kulunut.

3 Niin Mooses sanoi: "Minä käyn tuonne ja katson tätä suurta näkyä, miksi ei pensas pala poroksi".

4 Kun Herra näki hänen tulevan katsomaan, huusi hän, Jumala, hänelle pensaasta ja sanoi: "Mooses, Mooses!" Hän vastasi: "Tässä olen".

5 Hän sanoi: "Älä tule tänne! Riisu kengät jalastasi, sillä paikka, jossa seisot, on pyhä maa."

6 Ja hän sanoi vielä: "Minä olen sinun isäsi Jumala, Aabrahamin Jumala, Iisakin Jumala ja Jaakobin Jumala". Ja Mooses peitti kasvonsa, sillä hän pelkäsi katsoa Jumalaa.

7 Ja Herra sanoi: "Minä olen nähnyt kansani kurjuuden Egyptissä ja kuullut heidän huutonsa sortajainsa tähden; niin, minä tiedän heidän tuskansa.

8 Sentähden minä olen astunut alas vapauttamaan heidät egyptiläisten kädestä ja johdattamaan heidät siitä maasta hyvään ja tilavaan maahan, maahan, joka vuotaa maitoa ja mettä, sinne, missä kanaanilaiset, heettiläiset, amorilaiset, perissiläiset, hivviläiset ja jebusilaiset asuvat.

9 Ja nyt on israelilaisten huuto tullut minun kuuluviini, ja minä olen myös nähnyt sen sorron, jolla egyptiläiset heitä sortavat.

10 Niin mene nyt, minä lähetän sinut faraon tykö, ja vie minun kansani, israelilaiset, pois Egyptistä."

11 Mutta Mooses sanoi Jumalalle: "Mikä minä olen menemään faraon tykö ja viemään israelilaisia pois Egyptistä?"

12 Hän vastasi: "Minä olen sinun kanssasi; ja tämä olkoon sinulle tunnusmerkkinä, että minä olen sinut lähettänyt: kun olet vienyt kansan pois Egyptistä, niin te palvelette Jumalaa tällä vuorella".

13 Mooses sanoi Jumalalle: "Katso, kun minä menen israelilaisten luo ja sanon heille: 'Teidän isienne Jumala on lähettänyt minut teidän luoksenne', ja kun he kysyvät minulta: 'Mikä hänen nimensä on?' niin mitä minä heille vastaan?"

14 Jumala vastasi Moosekselle: "Minä olen se, joka minä olen". Ja hän sanoi vielä: "Sano israelilaisille näin: 'Minä olen' lähetti minut teidän luoksenne".

15 Ja Jumala sanoi vielä Moosekselle: "Sano israelilaisille näin: Herra, teidän isienne Jumala, Aabrahamin Jumala, Iisakin Jumala ja Jaakobin Jumala, lähetti minut teidän luoksenne; tämä on minun nimeni iankaikkisesti, ja näin minua kutsuttakoon sukupolvesta sukupolveen.

16 Mene ja kokoa Israelin vanhimmat ja sano heille: Herra, teidän isienne Jumala, Aabrahamin, Iisakin ja Jaakobin Jumala, on ilmestynyt minulle ja sanonut: 'Totisesti minä pidän teistä huolen ja pidän silmällä, mitä teille tapahtuu Egyptissä.

17 Ja minä olen päättänyt näin: minä johdatan teidät pois Egyptin kurjuudesta kanaanilaisten, heettiläisten, amorilaisten, perissiläisten, hivviläisten ja jebusilaisten maahan, siihen maahan, joka vuotaa maitoa ja mettä.'

18 Ja he kuulevat sinua. Niin mene sitten, sinä ja Israelin vanhimmat, Egyptin kuninkaan tykö, ja sanokaa hänelle: 'Herra, hebrealaisten Jumala, on kohdannut meitä. Anna siis meidän mennä kolmen päivän matka erämaahan uhraamaan Herralle, Jumalallemme.'

19 Mutta minä tiedän, että Egyptin kuningas ei päästä teitä menemään, ei edes väkevän käden pakolla.

20 Mutta minä ojennan käteni ja lyön Egyptiä kaikenkaltaisilla ihmeilläni, joita minä olen siellä tekevä, ja sitten hän päästää teidät.

21 Ja minä annan tämän kansan päästä egyptiläisten suosioon, niin että te lähtiessänne ette lähde tyhjin käsin.

22 Vaan jokainen vaimo on pyytävä naapuriltaan ja luonaan majailevalta vaimolta hopea-ja kultakaluja ja vaatteita. Niihin te puette poikanne ja tyttärenne ja viette ne saaliina egyptiläisiltä."

2587. 'Because of the matter of Sarah' means through the rational if it had joined itself. This is clear from the representation of 'Sarah when a sister' as rational truth, dealt with in 2508. 'The matter of Sarah' means the whole affair, that is to say, of her being called a sister, and of Abimelech's taking her, but not going near her. What more is meant by these things will be stated in what follows immediately below.

Isaiah第37章

学习

   

1 It happened, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into Yahweh's house.

2 He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.

3 They said to him, "Thus says Hezekiah, 'This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of rejection; for the children have come to the birth, and there is no strength to bring forth.

4 It may be Yahweh your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to defy the living God, and will rebuke the words which Yahweh your God has heard. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.'"

5 So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

6 Isaiah said to them, "Tell your master, 'Thus says Yahweh, "Don't be afraid of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him and he will hear news, and will return to his own land. I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land."'"

8 So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah, for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

9 He heard news concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, "He has come out to fight against you." When he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,

10 "Thus you shall speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, 'Don't let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, "Jerusalem won't be given into the hand of the king of Assyria."

11 Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly. Shall you be delivered?

12 Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed, Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?

13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?'"

14 Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it. Then Hezekiah went up to Yahweh's house, and spread it before Yahweh.

15 Hezekiah prayed to Yahweh, saying,

16 "Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, who is enthroned among the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.

17 Turn your ear, Yahweh, and hear. Open your eyes, Yahweh, and behold. hear all of the words of Sennacherib, who has sent to defy the living God.

18 Truly, Yahweh, the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the countries and their land,

19 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them.

20 Now therefore, Yahweh our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are Yahweh, even you only."

21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, "Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'Because you have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria,

22 this is the word which Yahweh has spoken concerning him. The virgin daughter of Zion has despised you and ridiculed you. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.

23 Whom have you defied and blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel.

24 By your servants, have you defied the Lord, and have said, "With the multitude of my chariots I have come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon. I will cut down its tall cedars and its choice fir trees. I will enter into its farthest height, the forest of its fruitful field.

25 I have dug and drunk water, and with the sole of my feet I will dry up all the rivers of Egypt."

26 Have you not heard how I have done it long ago, and formed it in ancient times? Now I have brought it to pass, that it should be yours to destroy fortified cities, turning them into ruinous heaps.

27 Therefore their inhabitants had little power. They were dismayed and confounded. They were like the grass of the field, and like the green herb, like the grass on the housetops, and like a field before its crop has grown.

28 But I know your sitting down, your going out, your coming in, and your raging against me.

29 Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance has come up into my ears, therefore will I put my hook in your nose and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.

30 This shall be the sign to you. You will eat this year that which grows of itself, and in the second year that which springs from the same; and in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

31 The remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah will again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.

32 For out of Jerusalem a remnant will go forth, and survivors will escape from Mount Zion. The zeal of Yahweh of Armies will perform this.'

33 Therefore thus says Yahweh concerning the king of Assyria, 'He will not come to this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither will he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it.

34 By the way that he came, by the same he shall return, and he shall not come to this city,' says Yahweh.

35 'For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.'"

36 The angel of Yahweh went out and struck one hundred and eighty-five thousand men in the camp of the Assyrians. When men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.

37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went away, returned to Nineveh, and stayed there.

38 It happened, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons struck him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. Esar Haddon his son reigned in his place.
