2 Mosebog 8
1 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Gak til Farao, og du skal sige til ham: Saa siger Herren: Lad mit Folk fare, at de kunne tjene mig.
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, “This is what Adonai says, ‘Let my people go, that they may abad ·serve· me.
2 Og dersom du vægrer dig ved at lade dem fare, se, da vil jeg plage hele dit Landemærke med Frøer.
If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs:
3 Og Floden skal vrimle med Frøer, og de skulle hoppe op og komme i dit Hus og i dit Sengekammer og paa din Seng og i dine Tjeneres Hus og iblandt dit Folk og i dine Ovne og i dine Dejgtruge.
and the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs:
4 Og Frøerne skulle hoppe op paa dig og paa dit Folk og paa alle dine Tjenere.
and the frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.’”
5 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Sig til Aron: Ræk din Haand ud med din Stav over Strømmene, over Floderne og over Søerne, og lad Frøerne komme op over Ægyptens Land.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Tell Aaron [Light-bringer], ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].’”
6 Og Aron rakte sin Haand ud over Vandene i Ægypten, og der kom Frøer op og skjulte Ægyptens Land.
Aaron [Light-bringer] stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt [Abode of slavery]; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
7 Og Koglerne gjorde ligesaa med deres Besværgelser, og de lode Frøer komme op over Ægyptens Land.
The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
8 Da kaldte Farao ad Mose og Aron og sagde: Beder til Herren, at han borttager Frøerne fra mig og fra mit Folk, saa vil jeg lade Folket fare, og de maa ofre til Herren.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer], and said, “Entreat Adonai, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Adonai.”
9 Og Mose sagde til Farao: Hav du fremfor mig den Ære at sige, naar jeg skal bede for dig og for dine Tjenere og for dit Folk, at Frøerne skulle fordrives fra dig og fra dine Huse; kun i Floden skulle de blive tilbage.
Moses [Drawn out] said to Pharaoh, “I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only.”
10 Og han sagde: I Morgen; og han sagde: Efter dit Ord! at du skal fornemme, at der er ikke nogen som Herren vor Gud,
He said, “Tomorrow.” He said, “Be it according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God].
11 saa skulle Frøerne vige fra dig og fra dine Huse og fra dine Tjenere, og fra dit Folk; kun i Floden skulle de blive tilbage.
The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 Saa gik Mose og Aron ud fra Farao; og Mose raabte til Herren angaaende de Frøer, som han havde paaført Farao.
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] went out from Pharaoh, and Moses [Drawn out] cried to Adonai concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Og Herren gjorde efter Mose Ord; saa døde Frøerne bort af Husene, af Gaardene og af Agrene.
Adonai did according to the word of Moses [Drawn out], and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Og de samlede dem sammen, Hob ved Hob, og Landet stinkede.
They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Der Farao saa, at han havde faaet Luft, da forhærdede han sit Hjerte, og han hørte dem ikke, som Herren havde sagt.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t sh'ma ·hear obey· them, as Adonai had spoken.
16 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Sig til Aron: Ræk din Stav ud, og slaa Støvet paa Jorden; det skal blive til Lus i hele Ægyptens Land.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Tell Aaron [Light-bringer], ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].’”
17 Og de gjorde saa; og Aron udstrakte sin Haand med sin Stav og slog Støvet paa Jorden, og der blev Lus paa Mennesker og paa Kvæget; alt Støvet i Landet blev til Lus i hele Ægyptens Land.
They did so; and Aaron [Light-bringer] stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
18 Og Koglerne gjorde ligesaa med deres Besværgelser for at lade Lus komme frem, men de kunde ikke; og der var Lus paa Menneskene og paa Kvæget.
The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
19 Da sagde Koglerne til Farao: Det er Guds Finger; men Faraos Hjerte forhærdedes, saa at han ikke hørte dem, som Herren havde sagt.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger:” and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t sh'ma ·hear obey· them; as Adonai had spoken.
20 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Staa aarle op om Morgenen, og stil dig for Farao; se, han gaar ud til Vandet, og du skal sige til ham: Saa siger Herren: Lad mit Folk fare, at de maa tjene mig.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what Adonai says, “Let my people go, that they may abad ·serve· me.
21 Thi dersom du ikke lader mit Folk fare, se, da lader jeg komme alle Haande Utøj paa dig og paa dine Tjenere og paa dit Folk og i dine Huse, at Ægypternes Huse skulle vorde fulde af allehaande Utøj, og tilmed Jorden, hvorpaa de ere.
Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses: and the houses of the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
22 Og paa den samme Dag vil jeg udskille Gosen Land, i hvilket mit Folk er, at der ikke skal være alle Haande Utøj der, paa det du skal fornemme, at jeg er Herren midt i Landet.
I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen [Drawing near], in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end you may know that I am Adonai on the earth.
23 Og jeg vil sætte en Frelse til at skille imellem mit Folk og imellem dit Folk; i Morgen skal det Tegn ske.
I will put a division between my people and your people: by tomorrow shall this sign be.”’”
24 Og Herren gjorde saa; og der kom en svær Hob Utøj i Faraos Hus og i hans Tjeneres Hus, og i hele Ægyptens Land blev Landet fordærvet af alle Haande Utøj.
Adonai did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses: and in all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Og Farao kaldte ad Mose og ad Aron og sagde: Gaar hen, ofrer til eders Gud i dette Land.
Pharaoh called for Moses [Drawn out] and for Aaron [Light-bringer], and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!”
26 Og Mose sagde: Det maa ikke ske, at vi saa gøre; thi vi skulde da ofre til Herren vor Gud, Ægypterne til en Vederstyggelighed; se, skulle vi ofre, Ægypterne til en Vederstyggelighed for deres Øjne, og de skulde ikke stene os?
Moses [Drawn out] said, “It is not appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] to Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God]. Behold, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] before their eyes, and won’t they stone us?
27 Vi skulle gaa tre Dages Rejse i Ørken og ofre til Herren vor Gud, saasom han skal sige os.
We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], as he has ordered us to do.”
28 Da sagde Farao: Jeg vil lade eder fare, at I skulle ofre til Herren eders Gud i Ørken, dog saa, at I ikke skulle drage længere bort; beder for mig.
Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Adonai your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 Og Mose sagde: Se, naar jeg kommer ud fra dig, da vil jeg bede til Herren, at alle Haande Utøj skal vige fra Farao og fra hans Tjenere og fra hans Folk i Morgen; kun at Farao ikke bedrager mig mere, saa at han ej lader Folket fare at ofre til Herren.
Moses [Drawn out] said, “Behold, I go out from you, and I will pray to Adonai that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don’t let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Adonai.”
30 Og Mose gik ud fra Farao og bad til Herren.
Moses [Drawn out] went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Adonai.
31 Saa gjorde Herren efter Mose Ord og borttog alle Haande Utøj fra Farao, fra hans Tjenere og fra hans Folk; der blev ikke eet igen.
Adonai did according to the word of Moses [Drawn out], and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
32 Men Farao forhærdede sit Hjerte end denne Gang og lod ikke Folket fare.
Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.
