ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «بَقِيَتْ بَلِيَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ أُصِيبُ بِها فِرْعَوْنَ وَالْمِصْرِيِّينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يُطْلِقُكُمْ مِنْ هُنَا. وَعِنْدَمَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يَطْرُدُكُمْ جَمِيعاً طَرْداً. ١ 1
And YHWH says to Moses, “One more plague I bring in on Pharaoh and on Egypt, afterward he sends you away from this; when he is sending you away, he surely casts you out from this [place] altogether;
فَقُلِ الآنَ لِلشَّعْبِ: لِيَطْلُبْ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جَارِهِ، وَكُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ جَارَتِهَا، آنِيَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ». ٢ 2
now speak in the ears of the people, and they ask—each man from his neighbor, and each woman from her neighbor—[for] vessels of silver and vessels of gold.”
ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ جَعَلَ الشَّعْبَ يَحْظَى بِرِضَى الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، كَمَا أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ مُوسَى كَانَ عَظِيماً فِي مِصْرَ فِي عُيُونِ حَاشِيَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَالشَّعْبِ. ٣ 3
And YHWH gives the grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians; also the man Moses [is] very great in the land of Egypt, in the eyes of the servants of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of the people.
وَقَالَ مُوسَى هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: «سَأَجْتَازُ حَوَالَي نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ فِي وَسَطِ مِصْرَ، ٤ 4
And Moses says, “Thus said YHWH: About midnight I am going out into the midst of Egypt,
فَيَمُوتُ كُلُّ بِكْرٍ فِيهَا: مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ الْمُتَرَبِّعِ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ إِلَى بِكْرِ الأَمَةِ الَّتِي وَرَاءَ الرَّحَى، وَكَذَلِكَ بِكْرِ كُلِّ بَهِيمَةٍ، ٥ 5
and every firstborn in the land of Egypt has died, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, to the firstborn of the maidservant who [is] behind the millstones, and all the firstborn of beasts;
فَيَعْلُو صُرَاخٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، لَمْ يُشْهَدْ مِثْلُهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلا يَكُونُ مِثْلُهُ أَيْضاً. ٦ 6
and there has been a great cry in all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, and such as there is not again;
أَمَّا بَيْنَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ فَلَنْ يَنْبَحَ كَلْبٌ عَلَى أَيِّ إِنْسَانٍ أَوْ حَيَوَانٍ. وَعِنْدَئِذٍ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ. ٧ 7
and against all the sons of Israel a dog does not sharpen its tongue, from man even to beast, so that you know that YHWH makes a separation between the Egyptians and Israel.
فَيَأْتِي إِلَيَّ، مِنْ ثَمَّ، جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِكَ هَؤُلاءِ وَيَنْحَنُونَ أَمَامِي قَائِلِينَ: انْطَلِقْ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتْبَعُكَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ. وَآنَئِذٍ فَقَطْ أَمْضِي». ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ بِغَضَبٍ مُحْتَدِمٍ. ٨ 8
And all these servants of yours have come down to me, and bowed themselves to me, saying, Go out, you and all the people who [are] at your feet; and afterward I go out”; and he goes out from Pharaoh in the heat of anger.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ يَأْبَى الاسْتِمَاعَ لَكُمَا لِكَيْ تَتَكَاثَرَ آيَاتِي فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». ٩ 9
And YHWH says to Moses, “Pharaoh does not listen to you, so as to multiply My wonders in the land of Egypt”;
وَلَقَدْ أَجْرَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ الآيَاتِ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَسَّى قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِهِ. ١٠ 10
and Moses and Aaron have done all these wonders before Pharaoh, and YHWH strengthens Pharaoh’s heart, and he has not sent the sons of Israel out of his land.
