< Exodus 10 >

1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his bondmen, that I might do these my signs in their midst,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Kende epai ya Faraon, pamba te nakomisi motema na ye mpe ya bakalaka na ye makasi, mpo ete nasala bilembo na Ngai ya kokamwa kati na bango,
2 and that thou mightest tell in the ears of thy son and thy son's son what I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
mpe ete oyebisa bana na yo mpe bakoko na yo makambo oyo nasalaki na Ejipito mpe bilembo ya kokamwa oyo nasalaki kati na bango. Bongo bokoyeba ete Ngai nazali Yawe. »
3 And Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah the God of the Hebrews: How long dost thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
Boye Moyize mpe Aron bakendeki epai ya Faraon mpe balobaki na ye: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Ba-Ebre, alobi: ‹ Kino tango nini okoboya komikitisa liboso na Ngai? Tika bato na Ngai kokende kogumbamela Ngai.
4 For, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, I will to-morrow bring locusts into thy borders;
Soki oboyi kotika bango kokende, lobi nakotinda mabanki na mokili na yo.
5 and they shall cover the face of the land, so that ye will not be able to see the land; and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which ye have remaining from the hail, and shall eat every tree which ye have growing in the field;
Ekotondisa mokili ya Ejipito na ndenge ete mabele ekomonana lisusu te. Mabanki yango ekolia mwa biloko moke oyo mvula ya mabanga etikaki; ekolia mpe banzete na bino nyonso oyo ezali kokola kati na bilanga.
6 and they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy bondmen, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
Ekotonda na bandako na yo, ya bakalaka na yo mpe ya bato nyonso ya Ejipito; ezala batata na yo to bakoko na yo batikala nanu komona te likambo ya boye wuta bazala na mokili oyo kino lelo. › » Moyize abalukaki mpe atikaki ndako ya Faraon.
7 And Pharaoh's bondmen said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God: dost thou not yet know that Egypt is ruined?
Bakalaka ya Faraon balobaki na ye: — Kino tango nini moto oyo akozala motambo mpo na biso? Tika bango bakende kogumbamela Yawe, Nzambe na bango. Ozali komona te ete Ejipito ebebi?
8 And Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh. And he said to them, Go, serve Jehovah your God. Who are they that shall go?
Bongo bazongisaki Moyize mpe Aron epai ya Faraon; mpe Faraon alobaki na bango: — Bokende kogumbamela Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Kasi banani oyo bakokende?
9 And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters; with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we have a feast of Jehovah.
Moyize azongisaki: — Tokokende elongo na bilenge na biso, bampaka na biso, bana na biso ya mibali mpe ya basi, bameme na biso, bantaba na biso mpe bangombe na biso; pamba te tokosala feti mpo na lokumu ya Yawe.
10 And he said to them, Let Jehovah be so with you, as I let you go, and your little ones: see that evil is before you!
Faraon alobaki na bango: — Soki nakotika bino kokende elongo na bana na bino, wana tika ete Yawe azala elongo na bino! Nzokande emonani solo ete bozali na makanisi mabe.
11 Not so: go now, ye [that are] men, and serve Jehovah! for it is that ye have desired. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
Ekosalema bongo te! Kaka mibali nde bakokende kogumbamela Yawe, pamba te yango nde likambo oyo bozali kosenga ngai. Boye babenganaki Moyize mpe Aron liboso ya Faraon.
12 And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up over the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land — all that the hail hath left.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Sembola loboko na yo na mokili ya Ejipito mpo ete obimisa mabanki kati na mokili yango mpe mabanki yango elia matiti nyonso ya bilanga, biloko nyonso oyo mvula ya mabanga ebebisaki te.
13 And Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
Boye Moyize asembolaki lingenda na ye na mokili ya Ejipito mpe Yawe atindaki mopepe ya este mokolo mobimba mpe butu mobimba. Mpe tango tongo etanaki, mopepe yango eyaki na mabanki.
14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt, very grievous; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them will be such.
Mabanki ekotaki kati na Ejipito nyonso mpe evandaki ebele na bisika nyonso ya Ejipito. Etumbu ya mabanki ya ndenge wana etikala nanu kozala te mpe ekotikala kozala lisusu te.
15 And they covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left; and there remained not any green thing on the trees, and in the herbs of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.
Ezipaki mabele nyonso mpe mabele eyindaki. Eliaki nyonso oyo mvula ya mabanga ebebisaki te: matiti nyonso ya bilanga mpe bambuma nyonso ya banzete. Kati na mokili mobimba ya Ejipito, eloko moko te ya mobesu etikalaki na banzete to na matiti ya bilanga.
16 And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you.
Faraon abengisaki Moyize mpe Aron na lombangu, alobaki: — Nasali lisumu epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe epai na bino.
17 And now, forgive, I pray you, my sin only this time, and intreat Jehovah your God that he may take away from me this death only!
Sik’oyo lisusu, bolimbisa lisumu na ngai. Bobondela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpo ete alongola etumbu oyo ya kufa kati na ngai.
18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated Jehovah.
Moyize atikaki Faraon mpe abondelaki Yawe.
19 And Jehovah turned a very powerful west wind, which took away the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea: there remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
Bongo Yawe akomisaki mopepe ya este ekumbaki moko ya weste oyo ememaki mabanki mpe ebwakaki yango na ebale monene ya Barozo. Ata libanki moko te etikalaki na bisika nyonso ya Ejipito.
20 And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
Kasi Yawe akomisaki lisusu motema ya Faraon makasi mpe Faraon aboyaki kotika bana ya Isalaele kokende.
21 And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward the heavens, that there may be darkness in the land of Egypt — so that one may feel darkness.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Sembola loboko na yo likolo mpo ete molili epanzana na mokili ya Ejipito, molili oyo ekosala ete bato batambola na kosimbasimba.
22 And Moses stretched out his hand toward the heavens; and there was a thick darkness throughout the land of Egypt three days:
Boye Moyize asembolaki loboko na ye likolo mpe molili makasi ezipaki mokili mobimba ya Ejipito mikolo misato.
23 they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place, for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Na mikolo misato yango, moto moko te akokaki komona moto mosusu mpe kolongwa na esika oyo azali mpo na kokende na esika mosusu. Nzokande pole ezalaki na bisika nyonso oyo bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kovanda.
24 And Pharaoh called Moses and said, Go, serve Jehovah; only, let your flocks and your herds remain; let your little ones also go with you.
Faraon abengisaki Moyize mpe alobaki: — Bokende kogumbamela Yawe; bokende bino nyonso nzela moko, ezala basi mpe bana na bino. Kasi botika kaka bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na bino.
25 And Moses said, Thou must give also sacrifices and burnt-offerings into our hands, that we may sacrifice to Jehovah our God.
Kasi Moyize alobaki: — Okopesa biso mbeka mpe makabo ya kotumba oyo tokobonzela Yawe, Nzambe na biso.
26 Our cattle also must go with us: there shall not a hoof be left behind; for we must take thereof to serve Jehovah our God; and we do not know with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come there.
Bitonga na biso ya bibwele mpe ekokende nzela moko na biso; ata linzaka moko te ya ebwele ekotikala. Pamba te ezali kati na bibwele yango nde tokopona oyo tokobonzela Yawe, Nzambe na biso; mpe wana tokomi nanu kuna te, toyebi te ebwele nini tokobonza mpo na kogumbamela Yawe.
27 But Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he would not let them go.
Kasi Yawe akomisaki lisusu motema ya Faraon makasi; mpe Faraon aboyaki kaka kotika bango kokende.
28 And Pharaoh said to him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
Faraon alobaki na Moyize: — Longwa liboso na ngai mpe keba na yo! Koya lisusu liboso na ngai te! Mokolo oyo okoya lisusu liboso na ngai, okokufa.
29 And Moses said, Thou hast spoken rightly: I will see thy face again no more!
Moyize azongisaki: — Ndenge kaka olobi, nakotikala koya lisusu liboso na yo te!
