< Exodus 7 >

1 The LORD answered Moses, “See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Wò ó, Èmi ti ṣe ọ bí Ọlọ́run fún Farao, Aaroni arákùnrin rẹ ni yóò jẹ́ agbẹnusọ rẹ.
2 You are to speak all that I command you, and your brother Aaron is to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his land.
Ìwọ yóò sì sọ ohun gbogbo tí Èmi ti pàṣẹ fún ọ, Aaroni arákùnrin rẹ yóò sísọ fún Farao kí ó jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
3 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and though I will multiply My signs and wonders in the land of Egypt,
Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò sé Farao lọ́kàn le. Bí Mo tilẹ̀ ṣe ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iṣẹ́ àmì àti ìyanu ni Ejibiti,
4 Pharaoh will not listen to you. Then I will lay My hand on Egypt, and by mighty acts of judgment I will bring the divisions of My people the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.
síbẹ̀ òun kì yóò fi etí sí ọ. Nígbà náà ni Èmi yóò gbé ọwọ́ mi lé Ejibiti, pẹ̀lú agbára ìdájọ́ ńlá mi ni èmi yóò mú àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli jáde ní ọ̀wọ̀ọ̀wọ́.
5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD, when I stretch out My hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out from among them.”
Àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò sì mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa ní ìgbà tí mo bá na ọwọ́ mi jáde lé Ejibiti, tí mo sì mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jáde kúrò níbẹ̀.”
6 So Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD had commanded them.
Mose àti Aaroni sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ fún wọn.
7 Moses was eighty years old and Aaron was eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Mose jẹ́ ọmọ ọgọ́rin ọdún Aaroni sì jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún mẹ́tàlélọ́gọ́rin ni ìgbà tí wọ́n bá Farao sọ̀rọ̀.
8 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
Olúwa sọ fún Mose àti Aaroni,
9 “When Pharaoh tells you, ‘Perform a miracle,’ you are to say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,’ and it will become a serpent.”
“Ní ìgbà tí Farao bá sọ fún un yín pé, ‘Ẹ ṣe iṣẹ́ ìyanu kan,’ sọ fún Aaroni ní ìgbà náà pé, ‘Mú ọ̀pá rẹ kí ó sì sọ ọ́ sílẹ̀ níwájú Farao,’ yóò sì di ejò.”
10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD had commanded. Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a serpent.
Nígbà náà ni Mose àti Aaroni tọ Farao lọ, wọ́n sì ṣe bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ fún wọn, Aaroni ju ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ní iwájú Farao àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀, ọ̀pá náà sì di ejò.
11 But Pharaoh called the wise men and sorcerers and magicians of Egypt, and they also did the same things by their magic arts.
Farao sì pe àwọn amòye, àwọn oṣó àti àwọn onídán ilẹ̀ Ejibiti jọ, wọ́n sì fi idán wọn ṣe ohun tí Mose àti Aaroni ṣe.
12 Each one threw down his staff, and it became a serpent. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up the other staffs.
Ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan wọn sọ ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ọ̀pá náà sì di ejò. Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pá Aaroni gbé ọ̀pá tiwọn mì.
13 Still, Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Síbẹ̀ ọkàn Farao sì yigbì, kò si fetí sí wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ.
14 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is unyielding; he refuses to let the people go.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Ọkàn Farao ti di líle, ó kọ̀ láti jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn náà ó lọ.
15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning as you see him walking out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake.
Tọ Farao lọ ni òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù bí ó ti ń lọ sí etí odò, dúró ni etí bèbè odò Naili láti pàdé rẹ, mú ọ̀pá rẹ tí ó di ejò ni ọwọ́ rẹ.
16 Then say to him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to tell you: Let My people go, so that they may worship Me in the wilderness. But you have not listened until now.
Sọ fún un pé, ‘Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Heberu rán mi sí ọ láti sọ fún ọ pé, Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn kí ó lè sìn mi ni aginjù. Ṣùgbọ́n títí di àkókò yìí, ìwọ kò gba.
17 This is what the LORD says: By this you will know that I am the LORD. Behold, with the staff in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will turn to blood.
Èyí ni Olúwa wí, nípa èyí ni ìwọ yóò mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa. Wò ó, èmi yóò fi ọ̀pá ti ó wà ní ọwọ́ mi, èmi yóò ná omi tí ó wà nínú odò Naili yóò sì di ẹ̀jẹ̀.
18 The fish in the Nile will die, the river will stink, and the Egyptians will be unable to drink its water.’”
Àwọn ẹja tí ó wà nínú odò Naili yóò kú, odò náà yóò sì máa rùn, àwọn ará Ejibiti kò sì ni lè mu omi rẹ̀.’”
19 And the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt—over their rivers and canals and ponds and reservoirs—that they may become blood.’ There will be blood throughout the land of Egypt, even in the vessels of wood and stone.”
Olúwa sọ fún Mose, “Sọ fún Aaroni, ‘Mú ọ̀pá rẹ kí ó sì na ọwọ́ rẹ jáde lórí àwọn omi Ejibiti. Lórí àwọn odò kéékèèké àti odò ńlá, lórí àbàtà àti adágún omi, wọn yóò sì di ẹ̀jẹ̀.’ Ẹ̀jẹ̀ yóò wà ni ibi gbogbo ni Ejibiti, àní nínú ọpọ́n àti nínú kete omi àti nínú ìkòkò tí a pọn omi sí nínú ilé.”
20 Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD had commanded; in the presence of Pharaoh and his officials, Aaron raised the staff and struck the water of the Nile, and all the water was turned to blood.
Mose àti Aaroni sí ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ fún wọn. Ó gbé ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sókè ni iwájú Farao àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀, ó sì lu omi odò Naili, omi odò náà sì yípadà sí ẹ̀jẹ̀.
21 The fish in the Nile died, and the river smelled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink its water. And there was blood throughout the land of Egypt.
Ẹja inú odò Naili sì kú, odò náà ń rùn gidigidi tí ó fi jẹ́ pé àwọn ará Ejibiti kò le è mu omi inú rẹ̀. Ẹ̀jẹ̀ sì wà ni ibi gbogbo ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
22 But the magicians of Egypt did the same things by their magic arts. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn apidán ilẹ̀ Ejibiti sì ṣe bákan náà pẹ̀lú agbára òkùnkùn wọn, ọkàn Farao sì yigbì síbẹ̀ kò sì fetí sí wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ.
23 Instead, Pharaoh turned around, went into his palace, and did not take any of this to heart.
Dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, ó yíjú padà, ó sì lọ sí ààfin rẹ̀, kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí wà ni oókan àyà rẹ̀.
24 So all the Egyptians dug around the Nile for water to drink, because they could not drink the water from the river.
Nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ará Ejibiti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í gbẹ́ etí odò Naili láti wá omi tí wọn yóò mu, nítorí wọn kò le è mu omi tí ó wà nínú odò náà.
25 And seven full days passed after the LORD had struck the Nile.
Ọjọ́ méje sì kọjá ti Olúwa ti lu odò Naili.
