خرُوج 9
| ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «امْضِ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ إِلَهُ الْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدَنِي. | ١ 1 |
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
| لأَنَّكَ إنْ أَبَيْتَ أَنْ تُطْلِقَهُمْ وَحَجَزْتَهُمْ لَدَيْكَ، | ٢ 2 |
But if you continue to restrain them and refuse to let them go,
| فَإِنَّ يَدَ الرَّبِّ سَتُهْلِكُ مَوَاشِيكَ الَّتِي فِي الْحُقُولِ، وَالْخُيُولَ، وَالْحَمِيرَ وَالجِّمَالَ وَالْثِّيرَانَ وَالْغَنَمَ، بِوَبَأٍ شَدِيدٍ جِدّاً. | ٣ 3 |
then the hand of the LORD will bring a severe plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
| وَأُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ مَوَاشِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمَوَاشِي الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. فَلا يَهْلِكُ شَيْءٌ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». | ٤ 4 |
But the LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that no animal belonging to the Israelites will die.’”
| وَعَيَّنَ الرَّبُّ مَوْعِداً لِذَلِكَ قَائِلاً: «غَداً يَصْنَعُ الرَّبُّ هَذَا فِي الأَرْضِ». | ٥ 5 |
The LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”
| وَفِي الْغَدِ صَنَعَ الرَّبُّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ. فَهَلَكَتْ جَمِيعُ مَوَاشِي الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، أَمَّا مَوَاشِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَلَمْ يَهْلِكْ مِنْهَا وَاحِدٌ. | ٦ 6 |
And the next day the LORD did just that. All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died.
| وَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ لِيَتَحَقَّقَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ، وَإذَا مَوَاشِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَمْ يَهْلِكْ مِنْهَا وَاحِدٌ. وَتَصَلَّبَ قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ الشَّعْبَ. | ٧ 7 |
Pharaoh sent officials and found that none of the livestock of the Israelites had died. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the people go.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى وَهَرُونَ: «لِيَأْخُذْ كُلٌّ مِنْكُمَا حَفْنَةً مِنْ رَمَادِ الْأَتُونِ، وَلْيُذَرِّ مُوسَى الرَّمَادَ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَرْأَى مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ، | ٨ 8 |
Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from the furnace; in the sight of Pharaoh, Moses is to toss it into the air.
| فَيَتَحَوَّلَ إِلَى غُبَارٍ يُغَطِّي كُلَّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَيُصَابَ النَّاسُ وَالْبَهَائِمُ بِدَمَامِلَ مُتَقَيِّحَةٍ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». | ٩ 9 |
It will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on man and beast throughout the land.”
| فَأَخَذَا رَمَاداً مِنَ الأَتُونِ، وَوَقَفَا أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، ثُمَّ ذَرَّاهُ مُوسَى نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ، فَتَحَوَّلَ إِلَى دَمَامِلَ مُتَقَيِّحَةٍ أَصَابَتِ النَّاسَ وَالْبَهَائِمَ. | ١٠ 10 |
So they took soot from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh. Moses tossed it into the air, and festering boils broke out on man and beast.
| وَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعِ السَّحَرَةُ أَنْ يُواجِهُوا مُوسَى مِن جَرَّاءِ الدَّمَامِلِ، لأَنَّ الدَّمَامِلَ أَصَابَتِ السَّحَرَةَ وَكُلَّ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ أَيْضاً. | ١١ 11 |
The magicians could not stand before Moses, because the boils had broken out on them and on all the Egyptians.
| لَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَسَّى قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمَا، تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى. | ١٢ 12 |
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُمْ مُبَكِّراً فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَامْثُلْ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ الْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدَنِي. | ١٣ 13 |
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, stand before Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
| لأَنَّنِي فِي هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةِ سَأُوَجِّهُ جَمِيعَ ضَرَبَاتِي إِلَى قَلْبِكَ وَإِلَى حَاشِيَتِكَ وَإِلَى شَعْبِكَ، لِكَيْ تَعْرِفَ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مَثِيلٌ لِي فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Otherwise, I will send all My plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.
| فَقَدْ كَانَ بِوُسْعِي حَتَّى الآنَ أَنْ أَمُدَّ يَدِي وَأَضْرِبَكَ وَأَضْرِبَ شَعْبَكَ أَيْضاً بِالوَبَأِ لِتُبَادَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، | ١٥ 15 |
For by this time I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the earth.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي أَقَمْتُكَ لأُرِيَكَ قُوَّتِي، وَلِكَيْ يُذَاعَ اسْمِي فِي جَمِيعِ الأَرْضِ. | ١٦ 16 |
But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
| وَهَا أَنْتَ مَازِلْتَ تُقَاوِمُ شَعْبِي وَلا تُطْلِقُهُ. | ١٧ 17 |
Still, you lord it over My people and do not allow them to go.
| لِذَلِكَ غَداً فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الْوَقْتِ أُمْطِرُ بَرَداً ثَقِيلاً لَمْ تَشْهَدْهُ مِصْرُ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ تَأْسِيسِهَا حَتَّى الآنَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Behold, at this time tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.
| فَأَرْسِلِ الآنَ وَاجْمَعْ مَوَاشِيَكَ وَكُلَّ مَالَكَ فِي الْحَقْلِ، لأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَمْكُثُ فِي الْحَقْلِ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ وَلا يَلْجَأُ إِلَى مَأْوىً، يَنْهَمِرُ عَلَيْهِ الْبَرَدُ فَيَمُوتُ». | ١٩ 19 |
So give orders now to shelter your livestock and everything you have in the field. Every man or beast that remains in the field and is not brought inside will die when the hail comes down upon them.’”
| فَكُلُّ مَنْ خَافَ كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ مِنْ رِجَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ لاذَ بِعَبِيدِهِ وَمَاشِيَتِهِ بِالْبُيُوتِ، | ٢٠ 20 |
Those among Pharaoh’s officials who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their servants and livestock to shelter,
| أَمَّا الَّذِينَ اسْتَخَفُّوا بِكَلامِ الرَّبِّ فَقَدْ تَرَكُوا عَبِيدَهُمْ وَمَوَاشِيَهُمْ فِي الْحَقْلِ. | ٢١ 21 |
but those who disregarded the word of the LORD left their servants and livestock in the field.
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «مُدَّ يَدَكَ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ فَيَنْهَمِرَ الْبَرَدُ عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَعَلَى الرِّجَالِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ وَعَلَى عُشْبِ الْحَقْلِ فِي جَمِيعِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt—on man and beast and every plant of the field throughout the land of Egypt.”
| فَمَدَّ مُوسَى عَصَاهُ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ، فَأَرْسَلَ الرَّبُّ رُعُوداً وَبَرَداً. وَأَصَابَتِ الصَّوَاعِقُ الأَرْضَ، وَأَمْطَرَ الرَّبُّ بَرَداً عَلَى كُلِّ بِلادِ مِصْرَ، | ٢٣ 23 |
So Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the earth. So the LORD rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
| فَانْهَمَرَ الْبَرَدُ، وَاخْتَلَطَتِ الصَّوَاعِقُ بِالْبَرَدِ، فَكَانَتْ أَسْوَأَ عَاصِفَةٍ شَهِدَتْهَا أَرْضُ مِصْرَ مُنْذُ أَنْ صَارَتْ أُمَّةً. | ٢٤ 24 |
The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the time it became a nation.
| وَأَصَابَ الْبَرَدُ فِي كُلِّ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ جَمِيعَ مَا فِي الْحُقُولِ مِنْ نَاسٍ وَبَهَائِمَ. وَأَتْلَفَ كُلَّ نَبَاتٍ نَامٍ فِي الْحَقْلِ وَكَسَّرَ جَمِيعَ الأَشْجَارِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Throughout the land of Egypt, the hail struck down everything in the field, both man and beast; it beat down every plant of the field and stripped every tree.
| أَمَّا أَرْضُ جَاسَانَ حَيْثُ يُقِيمُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَإِنَّهَا وَحْدَهَا لَمْ يَسْقُطْ فِيهَا بَرَدٌ. | ٢٦ 26 |
The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.
| فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ وَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «لَقَدْ أَخْطَأْتُ هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ وَالرَّبُّ هُوَ الْبَارُّ، أَمَّا أَنَا وَشَعْبِي فَأَشْرَارٌ، | ٢٧ 27 |
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This time I have sinned,” he said. “The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
| فَتَضَرَّعَا إِلَى الرَّبِّ إذْ يَكْفِينَا مَا ابْتُلِينَا بِهِ مِنْ رُعُودٍ وَبَرَدٍ، فَأُطْلِقَكُمْ، وَلا تَمْكُثُونَ هُنَا بَعْدُ». | ٢٨ 28 |
Pray to the LORD, for there has been enough of God’s thunder and hail. I will let you go; you do not need to stay any longer.”
| فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى: «حَالَمَا أَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ أَبْسُطُ يَدِي فِي الصَّلاةِ إِلَى الرَّبِّ فَيَتَوَقَّفُ الرَّعْدُ وَيَنْقَطِعُ الْبَرَدُ لِكَيْ تَعْرِفَ أَنَّ الأَرْضَ هِيَ للرَّبِّ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Moses said to him, “When I have left the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي عَالِمٌ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ وَحَاشِيَتَكَ مَازِلْتُمْ لَا تَخْشَوْنَ الرَّبَّ الإِلَهَ». | ٣٠ 30 |
But as for you and your officials, I know that you still do not fear the LORD our God.”
| إنَّ الْكَتَّانَ وَالشَّعِيرَ قَدْ تَلِفَا، لأَنَّ الشَّعِيرَ أَصْبَحَ سَنَابِلَ، وَالكَتَّانَ كَانَ مُبْزِراً، | ٣١ 31 |
(Now the flax and barley were destroyed, since the barley was ripe and the flax was in bloom;
| أَمَّا الْحِنْطَةُ وَالقَطَانِيُّ فَلَمْ تَتْلَفْ بَعْدُ لأَنَّهَا تَنْمُو مُتَأَخِّرَةً. | ٣٢ 32 |
but the wheat and spelt were not destroyed, because they are late crops.)
| وَانْصَرَفَ مُوسَى مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَبَسَطَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى الرَّبِّ، فَتَوَقَّفَ الرَّعْدُ وَالْبَرَدُ وَانْقَطَعَ الْمَطَرُ عَنِ الانْهِمَارِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Then Moses departed from Pharaoh, went out of the city, and spread out his hands to the LORD. The thunder and hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured down on the land.
| وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَى فِرْعَوْنُ أَنَّ الْمَطَرَ وَالْبَرَدَ وَالرَّعْدَ قَدْ تَوَقَّفَتْ أَخْطَأَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى وَصَلَّبَ قَلْبَهُ هُوَ وَحَاشِيَتُهُ. | ٣٤ 34 |
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had ceased, he sinned again and hardened his heart—he and his officials.
| وَهَكَذَا تَقَسَّى قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، تَمَاماً كَمَا أَنْبَأَ الرَّبُّ عَلَى لِسَانِ مُوسَى. | ٣٥ 35 |
So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
