Exodus 7
1 To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Khenah, Faro hmaa ah Sithaw baktiah kang suek boeh, nam ya Aaron loe nang ih tahmaa ah om tih.
And the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, I have appointed you as the god of Pharaoh. And Aaron, your brother, will be your prophet.
2 Kang paek ih loknawk boih to thui ah; Faro mah a prae thung hoi Israel kaminawk tacawtsak hanah, nam ya Aaron mah Faro khaeah lok na thui pae tih.
You will speak to him all that I command you. And he will speak to Pharaoh, so that he may release the sons of Israel from his land.
3 Faro ih palung to kam taaksak moe, Izip prae thungah dawnrai hmuen hoi angmathaih to ka pungsak han.
But I will harden his heart, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt,
4 To pongah Faro mah na lok to tahngai mak ai; to pacoengah Izip nuiah ban ka phok moe, thacak lokcaekhaih hoiah kaimah ih misatuh kaminawk hoi Israel caanawk to Izip prae thung hoi ka tacawtsak han.
and he will not listen to you. And I will send my hand over Egypt, and I will lead my army and my people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt, through very great judgments.
5 Izip nuiah ban ka payangh moe, nihcae salak hoiah Israel kaminawk to ka zaehhoih naah, Izip kaminawk mah kai loe Angraeng ni, tito panoek o tih.
And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, who has extended my hand over Egypt, and who has led the sons of Israel from their midst.”
6 Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah Mosi hoi Aaron mah sak hoi.
And so, Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And so it was done.
7 Faro khaeah lokthuih hoi naah, Mosi loe saning qui tazetto oh boeh moe, Aaron loe saning qui tazet, thumto oh boeh.
Now Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron:
9 Faro mah nang hnik khaeah lokthuih naah, anih mah Dawnrai hmuen to sah hoi ah, tiah na thui nahaeloe, Aaron khaeah, Nangmah ih cunghet to la ah loe, Faro hmaa ah va ah, tiah thui paeh; to naah cunghet to pahui ah angcoeng tih, tiah a naa.
“When Pharaoh will say to you, ‘Show signs,’ you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will be turned into a snake.’”
10 To pongah Mosi hoi Aaron loe Faro khaeah caeh hoi moe, Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah a sak hoi; Aaron mah angmah ih cunghet to Faro hoi a tamnanawk hmaa ah vah pae; to naah cunghet to pahui ah angcoeng.
And so Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they did just as the Lord had commanded. And Aaron took the staff in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and it was turned into a snake.
11 Faro mah angmah ih palungha kaminawk hoi lungh aah kop kaminawk to kawk: miklet kop kaminawk mah doeh miklet kophaih hoiah a sak o toeng.
Then Pharaoh called the wise men and the sorcerers. And they also, by Egyptian incantations and certain secrets, did similarly.
12 Nihcae mah angmacae ih cunghet to vah o naah, pahui ah angcoeng boih; toe Aaron ih cunghet mah nihcae ih cunghet to pa-aeh pae boih.
And each one cast down their staffs, and they were turned into serpents. But the staff of Aaron devoured their staffs.
13 Toe Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Faro loe palungthah moe, nihnik mah thuih ih lok to tahngai pae ai.
And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.
14 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Faro loe palungthah pongah, kaminawk caehsak han koeh ai.
Then the Lord said to Moses: “The heart of Pharaoh has been hardened; he is not willing to release the people.
15 Khenah, Faro loe khawnthaw ah tui ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh, to naah anih khaeah caeh hoih; anih angzo ai naah vapui taengah zing hoi ah loe, pahui ah kangcoeng na ban ih cunghet to sin hoih.
Go to him in the morning; behold, he will go out to the waters. And you will stand to meet him above the bank of the river. And you will take, in your hand, the staff that was turned into a serpent.
16 To naah anih khaeah, Hebrunawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah nang khaeah lokthuih han ih ang patoeh; praezaek ah kai bok o hanah, kai ih kaminawk to tacawtsak ah, tiah ang thuisak, toe vaihi khoek to lok na tahngai ai.
And you will say to him: ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews sent me to you, saying: Release my people in order to sacrifice to me in the desert. And even until the present time, you were not willing to listen.
17 Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Ka ban ah kaom cunghet hoi vapui to ka boh moe, athii ah angcoeng naah, kai loe Angraeng ni, tito na panoek tih.
Therefore, thus says the Lord: In this you will know that I am the Lord. Behold, I will strike, with the staff that is in my hand, the water of the river, and it will be turned into blood.
18 To naah vapui thung ih tahnganawk to dueh o boih ueloe, vapui to ahmui sae tih; Izip kaminawk loe tui nae o thai mak ai, tiah a thuih, tiah ang thuihsak, tiah a naa.
Also, the fishes that are in the river will die, and the waters will be polluted, and the Egyptians will be afflicted when they drink the water of the river.’”
19 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Aaron khaeah, Cunghet to lak hanah thui paeh loe, Izip prae ih tuinawk, vacongnawk hoi vapuinawk, kangbuem tuinawk hoi pauem ih tuilinawk nuiah na ban to payangh ah, tuinawk loe athii ah angcoeng o boih tih; Izip prae thung boih ah athii to om ueloe, thing sabae hoi thlung hoiah sak ih laom thung khoek to athii to om tih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
The Lord also said to Moses: “Say to Aaron: ‘Take your staff; and extend your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers and streams and marshes and all the pools of waters, so that they may be turned into blood. And let there be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, as much in vessels of wood as in those of stone.’”
20 Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi hoi Aaron mah sak hoi; Faro hoi anih ih tamnanawk hmaa ah, angmah ih cunghet to phok moe, vapui tui to a boh; to naah vapui tuinawk loe athii ah angcoeng boih.
And Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And lifting up the staff, he struck the water of the river in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants. And it was turned into blood.
21 Vapui thung ih tanganawk loe duek o boih; vapui tui loe ahmui set parai pongah, Izip kaminawk mah tui to nae o thai ai; Izip prae thung boih ah athii to oh.
And the fishes that were in the river died, and the river was polluted, and the Egyptians were not able to drink the water of the river, and there was blood throughout the entire land of Egypt.
22 Toe Izip prae thung ih miklet sah kop kaminawk doeh, miklet kophaih hoiah to baktih hmuen to a sak o toeng; to pongah Faro loe palungthah aep aep; Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi hoi Aaron mah thuih ih lok to tahngai pae ai.
And the sorcerers of the Egyptians, with their incantations, did similarly. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.
23 Faro loe angqoi moe, nihnik to angmah im ah caehtaak; nihnik mah sak ih hmuen to tiah doeh sah pae ai.
And he turned himself away, and he entered his house, neither did he apply his heart to this turn of events.
24 Vapui tui to nae o thai ai boeh pongah, Izip kaminawk boih mah, vapui taengah naek han tui to takaeh o.
Then all the Egyptians dug along the borders of the river for water to drink. For they were not able to drink from the water of the river.
25 Angraeng mah vapui to boh pacoengah, ni sarihto laemhsak.
And seven days were completed, after the Lord struck the river.
