خرُوج 10
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «امْثُلْ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ لأَنَّنِي قَدْ قَسَّيْتُ قَلْبَهُ وَقُلُوبَ حَاشِيَتِهِ لِكَيْ أُجْرِيَ آيَاتِي هَذِهِ بَيْنَهُمْ، | ١ 1 |
Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his servants. I have done this to show these signs of my power among them.
| لِكَيْ تُخْبِرَ فِي مَسَامِعِ بَنِيكَ وَأَحْفَادِكَ عَمَّا ابْتَلَيْتُ بِهِ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَبِآيَاتِي الَّتِي أَجْرَيْتُهَا بَيْنَهُمْ فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ». | ٢ 2 |
I have also done this so that you may tell your children and grandchildren the things I have done, how I have harshly treated Egypt, and how I have given various signs of my power among them. In this way you will know that I am Yahweh.”
| فَمَثَلَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَقَالا لَهُ: «هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ الْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ: إِلَى مَتَى تَأْبَى أَنْ تَخْضَعَ لِي؟ أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدَنِي. | ٣ 3 |
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says this: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go so that they may worship me.
| وَإذَا أَبَيْتَ أَنْ تُطْلِقَ شَعْبِي، فَهَا أَنَا أَجْلِبُ غَداً الْجَرَادَ عَلَى تُخُومِكَ، | ٤ 4 |
But if you refuse to let my people go, listen, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your land.
| فَيُغَطِّي وَجْهَ الأَرْضِ، فَيَعْسُرُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ أَنْ يَرَاهَا، وَيَلْتَهِمُ الْبَقِيَّةَ الْمُتَخَلِّفَةَ لَكُمْ عَنِ الْبَرَدِ، وَكُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ نَابِتَةٍ لَكُمْ فِي الْحَقْلِ، | ٥ 5 |
They will cover the surface of the ground so that no one will be able to see the earth. They will eat the remains of whatever escaped from the hail. They will also eat every tree that grows for you in the fields.
| وَيَمْلأُ بُيُوتَكَ وَبُيُوتَ حَاشِيَتِكَ وَبُيُوتَ جَمِيعِ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، الأَمْرُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَشْهَدْ مِثْلَهُ آبَاؤُكَ وَلا أَجْدَادُكَ مُنْذُ أَنِ اسْتَوْطَنُوا هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ إِلَى الآنَ». ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلَ وَانْصَرَفَ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ٦ 6 |
They will fill your houses, those of all your servants, and those of all the Egyptians—something neither your father nor your grandfather ever saw, nothing ever seen since the day that they were on the earth to this present day.'” Then Moses left and went out from Pharaoh.
| فَقَالَتْ حَاشِيَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ لَهُ: «إِلَى مَتَى يَظَلُّ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ شَرَكاً لَنَا؟ أَطْلِقِ الشَّعْبَ لِيَعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُمْ. أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ مِصْرَ قَدْ عَمَّهَا الْخَرَابُ؟» | ٧ 7 |
Pharaoh's servants said to him, “How long will this man be a menace to us? Let the Israelites go so that they may worship Yahweh their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt is destroyed?”
| فَاسْتُدْعِيَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ ثَانِيَةً لِلْمُثُولِ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «امْضُوا وَاعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ، وَلَكِنْ مَنْ هُمُ الَّذِينَ سَيَذْهَبُونَ؟» | ٨ 8 |
Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, who said to them, “Go worship Yahweh your God. But what people will go?”
| فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى: «نَذْهَبُ بِفِتْيَانِنَا وَشُيُوخِنَا. نَذْهَبُ بِبَنِينَا وَبَنَاتِنَا، بِمَوَاشِينَا وَقُطْعَانِنَا لأَنَّهُ يَجِبُ أَنْ نُقِيمَ عِيداً لِلرَّبِّ». | ٩ 9 |
Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and our daughters. We will go with our flocks and herds, for we must hold a festival for Yahweh.”
| فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «لِيَكُنِ الرَّبُّ بِعَوْنِكُمْ إنْ أَنَا أَطْلَقْتُكُمْ مَعَ نِسَائِكُمْ وَأَوْلادِكُمْ. فَمِنَ الْجَلِيِّ أَنَّكُمْ عَازِمُونَ عَلَى الشَّرِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
Pharaoh said to them, “May Yahweh indeed be with you, if I ever let you go and your little ones go. Look, you have some evil in mind.
| لا، فَلْيَمْضِ الرِّجَالُ فَقَطْ لِعِبَادَةِ الرَّبِّ، لأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ مَا تَطْلُبُونَهُ». ثُمَّ طُرِدَا مِنْ حَضْرَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ١١ 11 |
No! Go, just the men among you, and worship Yahweh, for that is what you want.” Then Moses and Aaron were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ابْسُطْ يَدَكَ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لِتُبْتَلَى بِالجَّرَادِ، فَيُغَطِّي بِلادَ مِصْرَ وَيَلْتَهِمَ كُلَّ نَبَاتِ الأَرْضِ الْمُتَخَلِّفِ عَنِ الْبَرَدِ». | ١٢ 12 |
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand over the land of Egypt to the locusts, that they may attack the land of Egypt and eat every plant in it, everything that the hail has left.”
| فَمَدَّ مُوسَى عَصَاهُ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَأَرْسَلَ الرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحاً شَرْقِيَّةً طَوَالَ ذَلِكَ النَّهَارِ وَاللَّيْلِ، وَمَا إِنْ أَقْبَلَ الصَّبَاحُ حَتَّى حَمَلَتِ الرِّيحُ الشَّرْقِيَّةُ الْجَرَادَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Moses reached out with his staff over the land of Egypt, and Yahweh brought an east wind over the land all that day and night. When it was morning, the east wind had brought the locusts.
| فَانْتَشَرَ الْجَرَادُ فِي كُلِّ بِلادِ مِصْرَ، وَحَلَّ فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِهَا بِأَسْرَابٍ عَظِيمَةٍ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ نَظِيرٌ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلَنْ يَحْدُثَ مِثْلُهُ فِيمَا بَعْدُ. | ١٤ 14 |
The locusts went through all the land of Egypt and infested all parts of it. Never before had there been such a swarm of locusts in the land, and nothing like this will come after it.
| فَقَدْ غَطَّى وَجْهَ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ حَتَّى أَظْلَمَتْ، وَالْتَهَمَ كُلَّ عُشْبٍ فِيهَا وَكُلَّ أَثْمَارِ الأَشْجَارِ الَّتِي خَلَّفَهَا الْبَرَدُ، فَلَمْ يَبْقَ شَيْءٌ أَخْضَرُ لَا عَلَى الأَشْجَارِ وَلا فِي حُقُولِ الْمَزْرُوعَاتِ فِي كُلِّ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ. | ١٥ 15 |
They covered the surface of the whole land so that it was darkened. They ate every plant in the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Throughout all the land of Egypt, no living green plant remained, nor any tree or plant in the fields.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ أَسْرَعَ فِرْعَوْنُ فَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ قَائِلاً: «لَقَدْ أَخْطَأْتُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَإِلَيْكُمَا. | ١٦ 16 |
Then Pharaoh quickly summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “I have sinned against Yahweh your God and against you.
| فَاصْفَحَا هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ فَقَطْ عَنْ خَطِيئَتِي وَابْتَهِلا إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمَا كَيْ يُزِيلَ عَنِّي هَذَا الْبَلاءَ الْمُمِيتَ». | ١٧ 17 |
Now then, forgive my sin this time, and pray to Yahweh your God that he will take this death away from me.”
| فَانْصَرَفَ مُوسَى مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَابْتَهَلَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ، | ١٨ 18 |
So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to Yahweh.
| فَأَرْسَلَ الرَّبُّ رِيحاً غَرْبِيَّةً عَاصِفَةً حَمَلَتِ الْجَرَادَ وَطَرَحَتْهُ فِي الْبَحْرِ الأَحْمَرِ، فَلَمْ تَبْقَ جَرَادَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فِي جَمِيعِ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Yahweh brought a very strong west wind that picked up the locusts and drove them into the Sea of Reeds; not a single locust remained in all the territory of Egypt.
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ صَلَّبَ قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and Pharaoh did not let the Israelites go.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ابْسُطْ يَدَكَ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ فَيَطْغَى ظَلامٌ عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ حَتَّى يَكَادَ يُلْمَسُ لِكَثَافَتِهِ». | ٢١ 21 |
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand toward the sky, so that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness that may be felt.”
| فَبَسَطَ مُوسَى يَدَهُ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ، فَطَغَى ظَلامٌ كَثِيفٌ عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْجَاءِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لِمُدَّةِ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Moses reached out with his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
| فَلَمْ يَتَمَكَّنْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَرَى أَخَاهُ، وَلا غَادَرَ أَحَدٌ مَكَانَهُ طَوَالَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ. غَيْرَ أَنَّ النُّورَ كَانَ يَغْمُرُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أَمَاكِنِ إِقَامَتِهِمْ. | ٢٣ 23 |
No one could see anyone else; no one left his home for three days. However, all the Israelites had light in the place where they lived.
| فَاسْتَدْعَى فِرْعَوْنُ مُوسَى وَقَالَ: «اذْهَبُوا وَاعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ، وَلَكِنِ اتْرُكُوا وَرَاءَكُمْ مَاشِيَتَكُمْ وَقُطْعَانَكُمْ: أَمَّا صِغَارُكُمْ فَلْيَمْضُوا مَعَكُمْ أَيْضاً». | ٢٤ 24 |
Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go worship Yahweh. Even your families may go with you, but your flocks and herds must remain behind.”
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَسْمَحَ لَنَا بِأَخْذِ ذَبَائِحَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ لِنُقَدِّمَهَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
But Moses said, “You must also give us animals for sacrifices and burnt offerings so that we may sacrifice them to Yahweh our God.
| لِذَلِكَ تَذْهَبُ مَوَاشِينَا مَعْنَا أَيْضاً، فَلا يَبْقَى مِنْهَا ظِلْفٌ وَاحِدٌ، لأَنَّ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ نَخْتَارَ مِنْهَا لِعِبَادَةِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، وَلا يُمْكِنُنَا أَنْ نَعْرِفَ مَاذَا نَخْتَارُ مِنْهَا لِنَعْبُدَ الرَّبَّ حَتَّى نَصِلَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ». | ٢٦ 26 |
Our cattle must also go with us; not a hoof of them may be left behind, for we must take them to worship Yahweh our God. For we do not know with what we must worship Yahweh until we arrive there.”
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ صَلَّبَ قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ سَرَاحَهُمْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
| وَقَالَ لَهُ فِرْعَوْنُ: «اذْهَبْ عَنِّي، وَاحْذَرْ لِنَفْسِكَ. لَا تَمْثُلْ أَمَامِي مَرَّةً أُخْرَى، فَيَوْمَ تَرَى وَجْهِي تَمُوتُ». | ٢٨ 28 |
Pharaoh said to Moses, “Go from me! Be careful about one thing, that you do not see me again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.”
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «حَسَناً قُلْتَ، فَأَنَا لَنْ أَرَى وَجْهَكَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى». | ٢٩ 29 |
Moses said, “You yourself have spoken. I will not see your face again.”
