出埃及记 7
1 耶和华对摩西说：“我使你在法老面前代替 神，你的哥哥亚伦是替你说话的。
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, I have made you a god to Pharao, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
2 凡我所吩咐你的，你都要说。你的哥哥亚伦要对法老说，容以色列人出他的地。
And you shall say to him all things that I charge you, and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharao, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of his land.
3 我要使法老的心刚硬，也要在埃及地多行神迹奇事。
And I will harden the heart of Pharao, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 但法老必不听你们；我要伸手重重地刑罚埃及，将我的军队以色列民从埃及地领出来。
And Pharao will not listen to you, and I will lay my hand upon Egypt; and will bring out my people the children of Israel with my power out of the land of Egypt with great vengeance.
5 我伸手攻击埃及，将以色列人从他们中间领出来的时候，埃及人就要知道我是耶和华。”
And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, stretching out my hand upon Egypt, and I will bring out the children of Israel out of the midst of them.
6 摩西、亚伦这样行；耶和华怎样吩咐他们，他们就照样行了。
And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
7 摩西、亚伦与法老说话的时候，摩西八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。
And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron his brother was eighty-three years old, when he spoke to Pharao.
8 耶和华晓谕摩西、亚伦说：
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
9 “法老若对你们说：‘你们行件奇事吧！’你就吩咐亚伦说：‘把杖丢在法老面前，使杖变作蛇。’”
Now if Pharao should speak to you, saying, Give us a sign or a wonder, then shall you say to your brother Aaron, Take your rod and cast it upon the ground before Pharao, and before his servants, and it shall become a serpent.
10 摩西、亚伦进去见法老，就照耶和华所吩咐的行。亚伦把杖丢在法老和臣仆面前，杖就变作蛇。
And Moses and Aaron went in before Pharao, and [before] his servants, and they did so, as the Lord commanded them; and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharao, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 于是法老召了博士和术士来；他们是埃及行法术的，也用邪术照样而行。
But Pharao called together the wise men of Egypt, and the sorcerers, and the charmers also of the Egyptians did likewise with their sorceries.
12 他们各人丢下自己的杖，杖就变作蛇；但亚伦的杖吞了他们的杖。
And they cast down each his rod, and they became serpents, but the rod of Aaron swallowed up their rods.
13 法老心里刚硬，不肯听从摩西、亚伦，正如耶和华所说的。
and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he listened not to them, as the Lord charged them.
14 耶和华对摩西说：“法老心里固执，不肯容百姓去。
and the Lord said to Moses, The heart of Pharao is made hard, so that he should not let the people go.
15 明日早晨，他出来往水边去，你要往河边迎接他，手里要拿着那变过蛇的杖，
Go to Pharao early in the morning: behold, he goes forth to the water; and you shall meet him on the bank of the river, and you shall take in your hand the rod that was turned into a serpent.
16 对他说：‘耶和华—希伯来人的 神打发我来见你，说：容我的百姓去，好在旷野事奉我。到如今你还是不听。
And you shall say to him, The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, Send my people away, that they may serve me in the wilderness, and, behold, hitherto you have not listened.
17 耶和华这样说：我要用我手里的杖击打河中的水，水就变作血；因此，你必知道我是耶和华。
These things says the Lord: Hereby shall you know that I am the Lord: behold, I strike with the rod that is in my hand on the water which is in the river, and it shall change it into blood.
18 河里的鱼必死，河也要腥臭，埃及人就要厌恶吃这河里的水。’”
And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall stink thereupon, and the Egyptians shall not be able to drink water from the river.
19 耶和华晓谕摩西说：“你对亚伦说：‘把你的杖伸在埃及所有的水以上，就是在他们的江、河、池、塘以上，叫水都变作血。在埃及遍地，无论在木器中，石器中，都必有血。’”
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to your brother Aaron, Take your rod in your hand, and stretch forth your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers, and over their canals, and over their ponds, and over all their standing water, and it shall become blood: and there was blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and of stone.
20 摩西、亚伦就照耶和华所吩咐的行。亚伦在法老和臣仆眼前举杖击打河里的水，河里的水都变作血了。
and Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded them; and [Aaron] having lifted up [his hand] with his rod, struck the water in the river before Pharao, and before his servants, and changed all the water in the river into blood.
21 河里的鱼死了，河也腥臭了，埃及人就不能吃这河里的水；埃及遍地都有了血。
And the fish in the river died, and the river stank thereupon; and the Egyptians could not drink water from the river, and the blood was in all the land of Egypt.
22 埃及行法术的，也用邪术照样而行。法老心里刚硬，不肯听摩西、亚伦，正如耶和华所说的。
And the charmers also of the Egyptians did so with their sorceries; and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not listen to them, even as the Lord said.
23 法老转身进宫，也不把这事放在心上。
And Pharao turned and entered into his house, nor did he fix his attention even on this thing.
24 埃及人都在河的两边挖地，要得水喝，因为他们不能喝这河里的水。
And all the Egyptians dug round about the river, so as to drink water, for they could not drink water from the river.
25 耶和华击打河以后满了七天。
and seven days were fulfilled after the Lord has struck the river.
