< Exodus 10 >

1 And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh: for I have made his heart and the hearts of his servants hard, so that I may let my signs be seen among them:
Depois disse o Senhor a Moysés: Entra a Pharaó, porque tenho aggravado o seu coração, e o coração de seus servos, para fazer estes meus signaes no meio d'elle,
2 And so that you may be able to give to your son and to your son's son the story of my wonders in Egypt, and the signs which I have done among them; so that you may see that I am the Lord.
E para que contes aos ouvidos de teus filhos, e dos filhos de teus filhos, as coisas que obrei no Egypto, e os meus signaes, que tenho feito entre elles: para que saibaes que eu sou o Senhor.
3 Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: How long will you be lifted up in your pride before me? let my people go so that they may give me worship.
Assim foram Moysés e Aarão a Pharaó, e disseram-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus dos hebreos: Até quando recusas humilhar-te diante de mim? deixa ir o meu povo, para que me sirva;
4 For if you will not let my people go, tomorrow I will send locusts into your land:
Porque se ainda recusares deixar ir o meu povo, eis que trarei ámanhã gafanhotos aos teus termos,
5 And the face of the earth will be covered with them, so that you will not be able to see the earth: and they will be the destruction of everything which up to now has not been damaged, everything which was not crushed by the ice-storm, and every tree still living in your fields.
E cobrirão a face da terra, que a terra não se poderá ver; e elles comerão o resto do que escapou, o que vos ficou da saraiva: tambem comerão toda a arvore que vos cresce no campo;
6 And your houses will be full of them, and the houses of your servants and of all the Egyptians; it will be worse than anything your fathers have seen or their fathers, from the day when they were living on the earth till this day. And so he went out from Pharaoh.
E encherão as tuas casas, e as casas de todos os teus servos, e as casas de todos os egypcios, quaes nunca viram teus paes, nem os paes de teus paes, desde o dia, era que elles foram sobre a terra até ao dia de hoje. E virou-se, e saiu da presença de Pharaó.
7 And Pharaoh's servants said to him, How long is this man to be the cause of evil to us? let the men go so that they may give worship to the Lord their God: are you not awake to Egypt's danger?
E os servos de Pharaó disseram-lhe: Até quando este nos ha de ser por laço? deixa ir os homens, para que sirvam ao Senhor seu Deus: ainda não sabes que o Egypto está destruido?
8 Then Moses and Aaron came in again before Pharaoh: and he said to them, Go and give worship to the Lord your God: but which of you are going?
Então Moysés e Aarão foram levados outra vez a Pharaó, e elle disse-lhes: Ide, servi ao Senhor vosso Deus. Quaes são os que hão de ir
9 And Moses said, We will go with our young and our old, with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds; for we are to keep a feast to the Lord.
E Moysés disse: Havemos de ir com os nossos meninos, e com os nossos velhos; com os nossos filhos, e com as nossas filhas, com as nossas ovelhas, e com os nossos bois havemos de ir; porque festa do Senhor temos.
10 And he said to them, May the Lord be with you, if I will let you and your little ones go! take care, for your purpose clearly is evil.
Então elle lhes disse: Seja o Senhor assim comvosco, como eu vos deixarei ir a vós e a vossos filhos: olhae que ha mal diante da vossa face.
11 Not so; but let your males go and give worship to the Lord, as your desire is. This he said, driving them out from before him.
Não será assim: andae agora vós, varões, e servi ao Senhor; pois isso é o que pedistes. E os empuxaram da face de Pharaó.
12 And the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out over the land of Egypt so that the locusts may come up on the land for the destruction of every green plant in the land, even everything untouched by the ice-storm.
Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Estende a tua mão sobre a terra do Egypto pelos gafanhotos, para que venham sobre a terra do Egypto, e comam toda a herva da terra, tudo o que deixou a saraiva.
13 And Moses' rod was stretched out over the land of Egypt, and the Lord sent an east wind over the land all that day and all the night; and in the morning the locusts came up with the east wind.
Então estendeu Moysés sua vara sobre a terra do Egypto, e o Senhor trouxe sobre a terra um vento oriental todo aquelle dia e toda aquella noite: e aconteceu que pela manhã o vento oriental trouxe os gafanhotos.
14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, resting on every part of the land, in very great numbers; such an army of locusts had never been seen before, and never will be again.
E vieram os gafanhotos sobre toda a terra do Egypto, e assentaram-se sobre todos os termos do Egypto; mui graves foram; antes d'estes nunca houve taes gafanhotos, nem depois d'elles virão outros taes.
15 For all the face of the earth was covered with them, so that the land was black; and every green plant and all the fruit of the trees which was untouched by the ice-storm they took for food: not one green thing, no plant or tree, was to be seen in all the land of Egypt.
Porque cobriram a face de toda a terra, de modo que a terra se escureceu; e comeram toda a herva da terra, e todo o fructo das arvores, que deixara a saraiva; e não ficou alguma verdura nas arvores, nem na herva do campo, em toda a terra do Egypto.
16 Then Pharaoh quickly sent for Moses and Aaron, and said, I have done evil against the Lord your God and against you.
Então Pharaó se apressou a chamar a Moysés e a Aarão, e disse: Pequei contra o Senhor vosso Deus, e contra vós
17 Let me now have forgiveness for my sin this time only, and make prayer to the Lord your God that he will take away from me this death only.
Agora, pois, peço-vos que perdoeis o meu peccado sómente d'esta vez, e que oreis ao Senhor vosso Deus que tire de mim sómente esta morte.
18 So he went out from Pharaoh and made prayer to the Lord.
E saiu da presença de Pharaó, e orou ao Senhor.
19 And the Lord sent a very strong west wind, which took up the locusts, driving them into the Red Sea; not one locust was to be seen in any part of Egypt.
Então o Senhor trouxe um vento occidental fortissimo, o qual levantou os gafanhotos e os lançou no Mar Vermelho; nem ainda um gafanhoto ficou em todos os termos do Egypto.
20 But the Lord made Pharaoh's heart hard, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
O Senhor, porém, endureceu o coração de Pharaó, e não deixou ir os filhos de Israel.
21 And the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out to heaven, and all the land of Egypt will be dark, so that men will be feeling their way about in the dark.
Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Estende a tua mão para o céu, e virão trevas sobre a terra do Egypto, trevas que se apalpem.
22 And when Moses' hand was stretched out, dark night came over all the land of Egypt for three days;
E Moysés estendeu a sua mão para o céu, e houve trevas espessas em toda a terra do Egypto por tres dias.
23 They were not able to see one another, and no one got up from his place for three days: but where the children of Israel were living it was light.
Não viu um ao outro, e ninguem se levantou do seu logar por tres dias; mas todos os filhos de Israel tinham luz em suas habitações.
24 Then Pharaoh sent for Moses, and said, Go and give worship to the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be kept here: your little ones may go with you.
Então Pharaó chamou a Moysés, e disse: Ide, servi ao Senhor: sómente fiquem vossas ovelhas e vossas vaccas: vão tambem comvosco as vossas creanças.
25 But Moses said, You will have to let us take burned offerings to put before the Lord our God.
Moysés, porém, disse: Tu tambem darás em nossas mãos sacrificios e holocaustos, que offereçamos ao Senhor nosso Deus
26 So our cattle will have to go with us, not one may be kept back; for they are needed for the worship of the Lord our God; we have no knowledge what offering we have to give till we come to the place.
E tambem o nosso gado ha de ir comnosco, nem uma unha ficará; porque d'aquelle havemos de tomar, para servir ao Senhor nosso Deus: porque não sabemos com que havemos de servir ao Senhor, até que cheguemos lá
27 But the Lord made Pharaoh's heart hard, and he would not let them go.
O Senhor, porém, endureceu o coração de Pharaó, e não os quiz deixar ir.
28 And Pharaoh said to him, Go away from me, take care that you come not again before me; for the day when you see my face again will be your last.
E disse-lhe Pharaó: Vae-te de mim, guarda-te que não mais vejas o meu rosto: porque no dia em que vires o meu rosto, morrerás.
29 And Moses said, You say truly; I will not see your face again.
E disse Moysés: Bem disseste; eu nunca mais verei o teu rosto.
