< Exodus 8 >

1 And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.
Depois disse o Senhor a Moysés: Entra a Pharaó, e dize-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Deixa ir o meu povo, para que me sirva.
2 But if thou wilt not let them go behold I will strike all thy coasts with frogs.
E se recusares deixal-o ir, eis que ferirei com rãs todos os teus termos.
3 And the river shall bring forth an abundance of frogs: which shall come up, and enter into thy house, and thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and in the houses of thy servants, and to thy people, and into thy ovens, and into the remains of thy meats;
E o rio creará rãs, que subirão e virão á tua casa, e ao teu dormitorio, e sobre a tua cama, e ás casas dos teus servos, e sobre o teu povo, e aos teus fornos, e ás tuas amassadeiras.
4 And the frogs shall come in to thee and to thy people, and to all thy servants.
E as rãs subirão sobre ti, e sobre o teu povo, e sobre todos os teus servos.
5 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand upon the streams and upon the rivers and the pools, and bring forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.
Disse mais o Senhor a Moysés: Dize a Aarão: Estende a tua mão com tua vara sobre as correntes, e sobre os rios, e sobre os tanques, e faze subir rãs sobre a terra do Egypto.
6 And Aaron stretched forth his hand upon the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
E Aarão estendeu a sua mão sobre as aguas do Egypto, e subiram rãs, e cobriram a terra do Egypto.
7 And the magicians also by their enchantments did in like manner, and the brought forth frogs upon all the land of Egypt.
Então os magos fizeram o mesmo com os seus encantamentos: e fizeram subir rãs sobre a terra do Egypto.
8 But Pharao called Moses and Aaron and said to them: Pray ye to the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
E Pharaó chamou a Moysés e a Aarão, e disse: Rogae ao Senhor que tire as rãs de mim e do meu povo; depois deixarei ir o povo, para que sacrifiquem ao Senhor.
9 And Moses said to Pharao: Set me a time when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs may be driven away from thee and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people: and may remain only in the river.
E Moysés disse a Pharaó: Tu tenhas a honra sobre mim: Quando orarei por ti, e pelos teus servos, e por teu povo, para tirar as rãs de ti, e das suas casas, que sómente fiquem no rio
10 And he answered: Tomorrow. But he said: I will do according to thy word; that thou mayst know that there is none like to the Lord our God.
E elle disse: Ámanhã. E Moysés disse: Seja conforme á tua palavra, para que saibas que ninguem ha como o Senhor nosso Deus.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people; and shall remain only in the river.
E as rãs apartar-se-hão de ti, e das tuas casas, e dos teus servos, e do teu povo: sómente ficarão no rio
12 And Moses and Aaron went forth from Pharao: and Moses cried to the Lord for the promise, which he had made to Pharao concerning the frogs.
Então saiu Moysés e Aarão de Pharaó: e Moysés clamou ao Senhor por causa das rãs que tinha posto sobre Pharaó,
13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses: and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields:
E o Senhor fez conforme á palavra de Moysés: e as rãs morreram nas casas, nos pateos, e nos campos,
14 And they gathered them together into immense heaps, and the land was corrupted.
E ajuntaram-as em montões, e a terra fedeu.
15 And Pharao seeing that rest was given, hardened his own heart, and did not hear them, as the Lord had commanded.
Vendo pois Pharaó que havia descanço, aggravou o seu coração, e não os ouviu, como o Senhor tinha dito
16 And the Lord said to Moses: Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy rod, and strike the dust of the earth: and may there be sciniphs in all the land of Egypt.
Disse mais o Senhor a Moysés: Dize a Aarão: Estende a tua vara, e fere o pó da terra, para que se torne em piolhos por toda a terra do Egypto.
17 And they did so. And Aaron stretched forth his hand, holding the rod: and he struck the dust of the earth, and there came sciniphs on men and on beasts: all the dust of the earth was turned into sciniphs through all the land of Egypt.
E fizeram assim; porque Aarão estendeu a sua mão com a sua vara, e feriu o pó da terra, e havia muitos piolhos nos homens e no gado: todo o pó da terra se tornou em piolhos em toda a terra do Egypto.
18 And the magicians with their enchantments practiced in like manner, to bring forth sciniphs, and they could not and there were sciniphs as well on men as on beasts.
E os magos fizeram tambem assim com os seus encantamentos para produzir piolhos, mas não poderam: e havia piolhos nos homens e no gado.
19 And the magicians said to Pharao This is the finger of God. And Pharao heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had commanded.
Então disseram os magos a Pharaó: Isto é o dedo de Deus. Porém o coração de Pharaó se endureceu, e não os ouvia, como o Senhor tinha dito.
20 The Lord also said to Moses: Arise early, and stand before Pharao: for he will go forth to the waters: and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.
Disse mais o Senhor a Moysés: Levanta-te pela manhã cedo, e põe-te diante de Pharaó; eis que elle sairá ás aguas, e dize-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Deixa ir o meu povo, para que me sirva
21 But if thou wilt not let them go, behold I will send in upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy houses all kind of flies: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with flies of divers kinds, and the whole land wherein they shall be.
Porque se não deixares ir o meu povo, eis que enviarei enxames de moscas sobre ti, e sobre os teus servos, e sobre o teu povo, e á tuas casas; e as casas dos egypcios se encherão d'estes enxames, e tambem a terra em que elles estiverem.
22 And I will make the land of Gessen wherein my people is, wonderful in that lay, so that flies shall not be there: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.
E n'aquelle dia eu separarei a terra de Goshen, em que meu povo habita, que n'ella não haja enxames de moscas, para que saibas que eu sou o Senhor no meio d'esta terra.
23 And I will put a division between my people and thy people: tomorrow shall this sign be.
E porei separação entre o meu povo e o teu povo: ámanhã será este signal.
24 And the Lord did so. And there came a very grievous swarm of flies into he houses of Pharao and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt: and the land was corrupted by this kind of flies.
E o Senhor fez assim; e vieram grandes enxames de moscas á casa de Pharaó, e ás casas dos seus servos, e sobre toda a terra do Egypto: a terra foi corrompida d'estes enxames.
25 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go, and sacrifice to your God in this land.
Então chamou Pharaó a Moysés e a Aarão, e disse: Ide, e sacrificae ao vosso Deus n'esta terra.
26 And Moses said: It cannot be so: for we shall sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: now if we kill those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.
E Moysés disse: Não convem que façamos assim, porque sacrificariamos ao Senhor nosso Deus a abominação dos egypcios: eis que se sacrificassemos a abominação dos egypcios perante os seus olhos, não nos apedrejariam elles?
27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness: and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.
Deixa-nos ir caminho de tres dias ao deserto, para que sacrifiquemos ao Senhor nosso Deus, como elle nos dirá.
28 And Pharao said: I will let you go to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness: but go no farther: pray for me.
Então disse Pharaó: Deixar-vos-hei ir, para que sacrifiqueis ao Senhor vosso Deus no deserto; sómente que, indo, não vades longe; orae tambem por mim
29 And Moses said: I will go out from thee, and will pray to the Lord: and the flies shall depart from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people tomorrow: but do not deceive any more, in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
E Moysés disse: Eis que saio de ti, e orarei ao Senhor, que estes enxames de moscas se retirem ámanhã de Pharaó, dos seus servos, e do seu povo: sómente que Pharaó não mais me engane, não deixando ir a este povo para sacrificar ao Senhor.
30 So Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to the Lord.
Então saiu Moysés de Pharaó, e orou ao Senhor,
31 And he did according to his word: and he took away the flies from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people: there was not left so much as one.
E fez o Senhor conforme á palavra de Moysés, e os enxames de moscas se retiraram de Pharaó, dos seus servos, e do seu povo: não ficou uma só.
32 And Pharao’s heart was hardened, so that neither this time would he let the people go.
Mas aggravou Pharaó ainda esta vez seu coração, e não deixou ir o povo.
