< Exodus 10 >

1 And the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh. For I have hardened his heart, and that of his servants, so that I may accomplish these, my signs, in him,
BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pharaoh te paan laeh, a khui ah ka miknoek ka khueh ham dongah ni amah lungbuei neh a sal rhoek kah lungbuei khaw ka thangpom sak.
2 and so that you may describe to the ears of your sons and your grandsons how often I opposed the Egyptians and wrought my signs among them, and so that you may know that I am the Lord.”
Te daengah ni na ca rhoek neh na ca kah a ca hna dongah Egypt te ka poelyoe tih amih taengah ka miknoek ka khueh te na tae uh vetih tite kai he Yahweh la nan ming uh eh,” a ti nah.
3 Therefore, Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they said to him: “Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: How long will you be unwilling to be subject to me? Release my people to sacrifice to me.
Te dongah Moses neh Aaron te Pharaoh taengah cet tih anih te, “Hebrew kah Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Me hil nim ka mikhmuh ah yalh ham na aal ve, ka pilnam te hlah lamtah kai ham thothueng uh saeh.
4 But if you resist, and you are unwilling to release them, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your borders.
Tedae ka pilnam te hlah ham na aal atah na khorhi la thangvuen ah kaisih kang khuen ni ne.
5 And they shall cover the face of the earth, lest any part of it be seen. Yes, and what remains from the hail shall be eaten. For they will gnaw away all the trees that spring up in the fields.
Te vaengah diklai hman he a thing vetih lai he tueng thai mahpawh. Rhael lamloh nangmih taengah aka sueng rhalyong hlangrhuel han caak vetih khohmuen ah nangmih ham aka duei thingkung boeih khaw a caak ni.
6 And they will fill your houses, and those of your servants and of all the Egyptians: so many as your fathers and ancestors have not seen, from the time that they rose up over the earth, even until this present day.” And he turned himself away, and he departed from Pharaoh.
Namah im neh na sal boeih kah im ah khaw, Egypt pum kah im ah khaw bae ni. Diklai ah a om uh hnin lamloh tahae khohnin duela na pa rhoek neh na pa kah a napa rhoek loh a hmuh uh noek moenih,” a ti nah rhoi. Te phoeiah mael rhoi tih Pharaoh taeng lamloh nong rhoi.
7 Then the servants of Pharaoh said to him: “How long must we endure this scandal? Release the men, in order to sacrifice to the Lord their God. Do you not see that Egypt is perishing?”
Te vaengah Pharaoh kah sal rhoek loh a taengah, “Me hil nim mamih taengah hlaeh la a om ve he. tongpa rhoek te tueih mai lamtah a Pathen Yaweh taengah thothueng uh saeh, Egypt a rhawp coeng he na ming hlan nim?” a ti uh.
8 And they called back Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, who said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord your God. Who are they who would go?”
Te dongah Moses neh Aaron te Pharaoh taengla a mael puei uh tih amih rhoi te, “Cet uh lamtah na Pathen Yahweh taengah thothueng uh. Tedae ubang ubang lae a caeh eh?” a ti nah.
9 Moses said: “We will travel with our little ones and our elderly, with our sons and daughters, with our sheep and herds. For it is a solemnity of the Lord our God.”
Te phoeiah Moses loh, “Camoe neh patong khaw ka cet uh vetih, ka capa neh ka canu khaw, ka boiva neh ka saelhung neh ka BOEIPA kah khotue te ka paan uh ni,” a ti nah.
10 And Pharaoh responded: “So let the Lord be with you. But if I were to release you and your little ones, who would doubt that you intend some great wickedness?
Te phoeiah amih rhoi te, “BOEIPA te nangmih taengah om tangloeng saeh. Nangmih neh na camoe rhoek te kan hlah sitoe cakhaw na maelhmai ah boethae phaeng tueng.
11 It will not be so. However, go only with the men, and sacrifice to the Lord. For this, too, is what you yourselves requested.” And immediately they were cast out from the sight of Pharaoh.
Te tlam moenih. Te te na hoe uh dongah tongpa rhoek te cet uh lamtah BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh laeh,” a ti nah tih amih rhoi te Pharaoh mikhmuh lamloh a haek.
12 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the land of Egypt, toward the locusts, so that they may rise up over it, and devour every plant which remains from the hail.”
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Kaisih ham te Egypt khohmuen ah na kut thueng laeh. Te vaengah Egypt Khohmuen ah pongpa vetih rhael loh a hlun boeih neh khohmuen baelhing boeih te a caak bitni,” a ti nah.
13 And Moses extended his staff over the land of Egypt. And the Lord brought a burning wind all that day and night. And when morning came, the burning wind lifted up the locusts.
Te dongah Moses loh a conghol te Egypt khohmuen la a thueng. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh khothoeng yilh te khohmuen sola khohnin yung neh khoyin puet ah a thawn pah. Mincang a pha vaengah kanghawn yilh loh kaisih a khuen pah.
14 And they ascended over the entire land of Egypt. And they settled into all the parts of the Egyptians: innumerable, such as had not been before that time, nor ever would be thereafter.
Kaisih khaw Egypt khohmuen tom ah van tih Egypt khorhi boeih ah bop. A mikhmuh ah tlung khungdaeng coeng tih te bang kaisih te ana om noek pawt tih te hnukah khaw om bal mahpawh.
15 And they covered the entire face of the land, laying waste to all things. And the plants of the land were devoured, along with whatever fruits were on the trees, which the hail had left behind. And nothing at all of the greenery remained on the trees or on the plants of the earth in all of Egypt.
Diklai hman te boeih a thing tih diklai khaw hmuep. Diklai baelhing boeih neh rhael loh a hlun thing thaih boeih te a caak. Te dongah thing hing neh lohma baelhing boeih tah Egypt khohmuen tom ah sueng voel pawh.
16 For this reason, Pharaoh hurriedly called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
Te vaengah Pharaoh tah Moses neh Aaron te khue hamla tokthuet tih, “Na Pathen Yahweh teang neh nangmih taengah ka tholh coeng.
17 But now, release me from my sin even this time, and petition the Lord your God, so that he may take this death away from me.”
Te dongah ka tholhnah he phuei mai laeh. Na Pathen BOEIPA taengah vai mah thangthui rhoi lamtah dueknah he khaw kai taeng lamloh nong sak saeh,” a ti nah.
18 And Moses, departing from the sight of Pharaoh, prayed to the Lord.
Te dongah Pharaoh taeng lamloh nong rhoi tih BOEIPA taengah a thangthui pah.
19 And he caused a very strong wind to blow from the west, and, seizing the locusts, it cast them into the Red Sea. There remained not so much as one in all the parts of Egypt.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh khotlak yilh te bahoeng a tlungluen la a maelh tih kaisih te a khuen. Carhaek tuipuei la a yawn tih Egypt khorhi tom ah kaisih pakhat khaw hlun pawh.
20 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; neither did he release the sons of Israel.
Tedae BOEIPA loh Pharaoh lungbuei te te a moem pah dongah Israel ca rhoek te hlah pawh.
21 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky. And let there be a darkness over the land of Egypt, so dense that they may be able to feel it.”
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Vaan la na kut thueng lamtah a hmuep loh Egypt khohmuen a tlak thil vaengah a hmuep te phatuem saeh,” a ti nah.
22 And Moses extended his hand into the sky. And there came a horrible darkness in the entire land of Egypt for three days.
Te dongah Moses loh a kut te vaan la a thueng tih Egypt khohmuen boeih te khohmuep hmaisuep loh hnin thum a khuk.
23 No one saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was. But wherever the sons of Israel were living, there was light.
Hlang loh a manuca khaw hmu pawt tih hlang he amah lamloh hnin thum khuiah thoo uh voel pawh. Tedae Israel ca boeih ham tah a tolrhum ah vangnah om.
24 And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord. Only let your sheep and herds remain behind. Your little ones may go with you.”
Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Moses te a khue tih, “Cet uh lamtah BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh. Tedae na boiva neh na saelhung te khueh lamtah na ca rhoek khaw namamih neh cet uh,” a ti nah.
25 Moses said: “You must also permit us victims and holocausts, which we may offer to the Lord our God.
Tedae Moses loh, “Namah long khaw kaimih kut ah hmueih neh hmueihhlutnah te nam paek uh daengah man ka Pathen Yahweh te ka nawn uh thai ve.
26 All the flocks shall travel with us. Not one hoof of them shall remain behind. For they are necessary for the worship of the Lord our God, especially since we do not know what ought to be immolated, until we arrive at the very place.”
Te dongah ka boiva khaw kamamih neh ka puei uh vetih a khomae pataeng hlun mahpawh. Kaimih kah Pathen Yahweh taengah thothueng ham vaengah te khui lamkah ni ka loh uh eh. Tedae te la ka pawk uh hlan atah BOEIPA taengah metla thothueng ham khaw ka ming uh moenih,” a ti.
27 But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he was not willing to release them.
BOEIPA loh Pharaoh lungbuei te a moem pah dongah amih te hlah ham huem pawh.
28 And Pharaoh said to Moses: “Withdraw from me, and beware that you no longer see my face. On whatever day you will appear in my sight, you shall die.”
Te dongah anih te Pharaoh loh, “Kai taeng lamloh nong laeh, nang te ngaithuen, ka maelhmai hmuh ham koei voel boeh, ka maelhmai na hmuh hnin ah na duek ni,” a ti nah.
29 Moses responded: “So be it, just as you have said. I will no longer see your face.”
Te dongah Moses loh, “Na thui bangla na maelhmai hmuh ham koep ka khoep mahpawh,” a ti nah.
