خرُوج 11

١ 1 ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «بَقِيَتْ بَلِيَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ أُصِيبُ بِها فِرْعَوْنَ وَالْمِصْرِيِّينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يُطْلِقُكُمْ مِنْ هُنَا. وَعِنْدَمَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يَطْرُدُكُمْ جَمِيعاً طَرْداً.

And the LORD said to Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go from here: when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out from here altogether.

٢ 2 فَقُلِ الآنَ لِلشَّعْبِ: لِيَطْلُبْ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جَارِهِ، وَكُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ جَارَتِهَا، آنِيَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ».

Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man ask of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.

٣ 3 ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ جَعَلَ الشَّعْبَ يَحْظَى بِرِضَى الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، كَمَا أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ مُوسَى كَانَ عَظِيماً فِي مِصْرَ فِي عُيُونِ حَاشِيَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَالشَّعْبِ.

And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants, and in the sight of the people.

٤ 4 وَقَالَ مُوسَى هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: «سَأَجْتَازُ حَوَالَي نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ فِي وَسَطِ مِصْرَ،

And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt:

٥ 5 فَيَمُوتُ كُلُّ بِكْرٍ فِيهَا: مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ الْمُتَرَبِّعِ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ إِلَى بِكْرِ الأَمَةِ الَّتِي وَرَاءَ الرَّحَى، وَكَذَلِكَ بِكْرِ كُلِّ بَهِيمَةٍ،

And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even to the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts.

٦ 6 فَيَعْلُو صُرَاخٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، لَمْ يُشْهَدْ مِثْلُهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلا يَكُونُ مِثْلُهُ أَيْضاً.

And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there hath been none like it, nor shall be like it any more.

٧ 7 أَمَّا بَيْنَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ فَلَنْ يَنْبَحَ كَلْبٌ عَلَى أَيِّ إِنْسَانٍ أَوْ حَيَوَانٍ. وَعِنْدَئِذٍ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ.

But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.

٨ 8 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.

And all these thy servants shall come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, Depart thou, and all the people that follow thee: and after that I will depart. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.

٩ 9 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ يَأْبَى الاسْتِمَاعَ لَكُمَا لِكَيْ تَتَكَاثَرَ آيَاتِي فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ».

And the LORD said to Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken to you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.

١٠ 10 وَلَقَدْ أَجْرَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ الآيَاتِ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَسَّى قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِهِ.

And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel depart from his land.
