Exodus 9
1 To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Faro khaeah caeh ah loe, Hebrunawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kai a bok o hanah, kai ih kaminawk to tacawtsak lai ah, tiah a thuih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah ang naa.
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.
2 Nihcae to na caehsak ai ah, na patawn caeng nahaeloe,
But if you continue to restrain them and refuse to let them go,
3 khenah, Angraeng loe lawk ah kaom pacah ih moinawk, hrangnawk, laa hrangnawk, kaengkuu hrangnawk, maitaw taenawk, tuunawk nuiah ban to phok ueloe, karai parai nathaih to phasak tih.
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.
4 Toe Angraeng mah, Israel kaminawk ih moinawk hoi Izip kaminawk ih moinawk to ka tapraek han, Israel kaminawk ih moi loe maeto doeh dueh mak ai, tiah a thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
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.’”
5 Angraeng mah atue to pahoe boeh, Angraeng mah khawnbang ah hae hmuen hae prae thungah sah tih, tiah thuih.
The LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”
6 Angraeng mah khawnbang ah to hmuen to sak; Izip kaminawk ih moi loe duek o boih; toe Israel kaminawk ih moinawk loe maeto doeh dueh ai.
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.
7 Faro mah kami to patoeh naah, khenah, Israel kaminawk ih moi loe maeto doeh dueh ai, tito panoek; toe Faro loe palung amtaaksak toengtoeng vop moe, Israel kaminawk to tacawtsak ai.
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.
8 To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah, Takoeng ih maiphu to ban tamsum maeto la hoih, Mosi mah Faro hmaa ah van bangah haeh nasoe.
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.
9 To maiphu loe Izip prae thung boih ah koi ueloe, Izip prae thungah kaom kaminawk hoi moinawk to, ahlut mansak boih tih, tiah a naa.
It will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on man and beast throughout the land.”
10 To pongah nihnik mah takoeng pong ih maiphu to a lak hoi moe, Faro hmaa ah angdoet hoi; Mosi mah maiphu to van ah haeh naah, kaminawk hoi moinawk nuiah ahlut to oh.
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.
11 Miklet kop kaminawk hoi Izip kaminawk boih ahlut manh o pongah, Mosi hmaa ah angdoe o thai ai.
The magicians could not stand before Moses, because the boils had broken out on them and on all the Egyptians.
12 Mosi khaeah Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Angraeng mah Faro to palung thahsak, to pongah Mosi hoi Aaron ih lok to tahngai pae ai.
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
13 To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Khawnthaw ah angthawk ah loe, Faro hmaa ah angdoe ah, anih khaeah, Hebru kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kai a bok o hanah, kai ih kaminawk to tacawtsak lai ah, tiah a thuih, tiah thui pae hanah a naa.
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.
14 Vaihi loe long pum ah kai baktih mi doeh om ai, tiah na panoek hanah, na palung thungah maw, na tamnanawk hoi kaminawk nuiah maw, raihaihnawk to ka phaksak han boeh.
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.
15 Vaihi ban ka payangh moe, nangmah hoi nang ih kaminawk nuiah raihaih ka phaksak han, nang loe long hoiah kang hmatsak han boeh.
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.
16 Toe na nuiah ka thacakhaih to kam tuengsak moe, long boih ah ka hmin taphong han ih ni, nang hae kang pathawk tahang.
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.
17 Toe nang mah kai kaminawk ih lok to na aek, nangmah hoi nangmah to nam koeh moe, kai ih kaminawk prawt ai ah na oh han maw?
Still, you lord it over My people and do not allow them to go.
18 Khenah, khawnbang hae atue ah, Izip prae oh tangsuek nathuem hoi kamtong vaihi khoek to kaom vai ai, kanung parai qaetui to ka kraksak han.
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.
19 To pongah vaihi kami to patoeh ah loe, lawk ah kaom moinawk hoi na tawnh ih hmuennawk boih pakuemsak ah; im ah hoih ai ih lawk ah kaom kami hoi moinawk loe qaetui mah va boih ueloe, dueh o boih tih, tiah thuih, tiah a thuisak.
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.’”
20 Angraeng ih lok zii kami, Faro ih tamnanawk loe angmacae ih tamnanawk hoi pacah ih moinawk to im ah hoih o.
Those among Pharaoh’s officials who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their servants and livestock to shelter,
21 Toe Angraeng ih lok tidoeh sah ai kaminawk loe, angmacae tamnanawk hoi pacah ih moinawk to lawk ah caeh o taak.
but those who disregarded the word of the LORD left their servants and livestock in the field.
22 To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Kaminawk, moinawk hoi Izip prae boih ah kaom lawk ih aannawk nuiah qaetui to kraksak hanah, van bangah na ban to payang ah, tiah a naa.
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.”
23 Mosi mah angmah ih cunghet to van ah phok tahang naah, Angraeng mah khopazih hoi qaetui to patoeh, hmai to long ah krak; Angraeng mah Izip prae thungah qaetui to kho baktiah angzohsak.
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.
24 To tiah kakrah qaetui loe, hmai hoiah angbaeh; Izip prae oh tangsuek nathuem hoiah to baktih kanung parai, qaetui to om vai ai vop.
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.
25 Qaetui mah Izip prae thung boih ih lawk, kami, pacah ih moi, lawk ah kamprawk aannawk to vah boih moe, lawk ih thingnawk doeh angkhaehsak boih.
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.
26 Israel kaminawk ohhaih Goshen ahmuen khue ah ni, qaetui krah ai ah oh.
The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.
27 To pacoengah Faro mah Mosi hoi Aaron to kawk hanah kami to patoeh, nihnik khaeah, Vaihi hmuen kasak pazae boeh, Angraeng loe toeng, kai hoi kai ih kaminawk loe ka set o boeh.
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This time I have sinned,” he said. “The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28 (Khawt boeh); khopazih hoi qaetui to dip thai hanah, Angraeng khaeah lawkthui ah; kang caeh o sak han boeh hmang; kasawk ah na om o mak ai boeh, tiah a naa.
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.”
29 Mosi mah anih khaeah, Vangpui zaeh ah ka caeh moe, Angraeng khaeah ban ka payangh han, to naah khopazih hoi qaetui to dii roep tih; to tiah ni long loe Angraeng ih ni, tito na panoek tih.
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.
30 Toe nang hoi na tamnanawk mah Angraeng to na zii o mak ai vop, tito ka panoek, tiah a naa.
But as for you and your officials, I know that you still do not fear the LORD our God.”
31 Buri sakhaih akung hoi barli cang loe amro boeh; barli cang loe aquih tacawt boeh moe, buri sakhaih akung doeh apawk pawk boeh.
(Now the flax and barley were destroyed, since the barley was ripe and the flax was in bloom;
32 Takaw dip sakhaih cang hoi bungaih loe amprawk ai vop pongah, amro ai.
but the wheat and spelt were not destroyed, because they are late crops.)
33 To pacoengah Mosi loe Faro khae hoiah tacawt moe, vangpui zaeh ah a caeh; Angraeng khaeah a ban to payangh, to naah khopazih hoi qaetui to dip moe, long nuiah kho angzo ai boeh.
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.
34 Khotui, qaetui hoi khopazih to dip boeh, tiah Faro mah hnuk naah, zaehaih a sak let bae vop; angmah hoi a tamnanawk doeh palungthah o let.
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had ceased, he sinned again and hardened his heart—he and his officials.
35 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Faro loe palungthah moe, Israel kaminawk to tacawtsak ai.
So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
