< Exodus 8 >

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh, and say unto him: Thus saith the LORD: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
Apre sa, Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Ale kote farawon an. W'a di l': Men sa Seyè a di: Kite pèp mwen an ale pou l' kapab fè sèvis pou mwen.
2 And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.
Koute byen. Si ou derefize kite yo ale, mwen pral lage krapo sou tout peyi a pou pini ou.
3 And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy bed-chamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs.
Gwo larivyè a pral plen krapo. Yo pral soti nan larivyè a, y'ap anvayi toupatou, y'ap antre lakay ou, anndan chanm ou, y'ap moute jouk nan kabann ou. Y'ap antre lakay moun pa ou yo, lakay tout pèp ou a, nan fou kote yo fè pen, nan ganmèl kote yo pare pat.
4 And the frogs shall come up both upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.'
Y'ap vole sou ou, sou pèp ou a, sou tout moun pa ou yo.
5 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch forth thy hand with thy rod over the rivers, over the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.'
Seyè a di Moyiz: -Di Arawon lonje men li avèk baton l' lan sou larivyè yo, sou kannal yo ak sou m'a dlo yo. Fè krapo moute kouvri peyi Lejip la.
6 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
Arawon lonje men l' sou tout dlo nan peyi Lejip la. Epi krapo moute kouvri tout peyi a.
7 And the magicians did in like manner with their secret arts, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
Men majisyen peyi Lejip yo, avèk maji yo, te rive fè menm bagay la tou. Yo fè krapo moute vin sou peyi Lejip la.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said: 'Entreat the LORD, that He take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice unto the LORD.'
Farawon an rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Lapriyè Seyè a, mande l' pou l' chase krapo sa yo soti sou mwen ak sou pèp mwen an. Apre sa, m'a kite pèp ou a ale pou yo ka touye bèt y'ap ofri bay Seyè a.
9 And Moses said unto Pharaoh: 'Have thou this glory over me; against what time shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?'
Lè sa a Moyiz di farawon an: -Se ou menm, farawon, ki konnen kilè ou vle pou m' lapriyè Seyè a pou ou, pou moun pa ou yo ansanm ak pèp ou a. Wi, se ou ki pou di m' kilè ou vle pou Seyè a wete krapo sa yo lakay ou ak nan kay pèp ou a, pou yo rete nan larivyè a ase.
10 And he said: 'Against to-morrow.' And he said: 'Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the LORD our God.
Farawon an reponn: -W'a fè sa denmen. Moyiz di li: -Sa va pase jan ou di l' la, pou ou sa konnen pa gen Bondye tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.'
Krapo yo pral soti lakay ou, y'a wete kò yo sou ou, sou moun pa ou yo ak sou pèp ou a. Se nan gwo larivyè a ase va gen krapo.
12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried unto the LORD concerning the frogs, which He had brought upon Pharaoh.
Moyiz ak Arawon soti lakay farawon an. Moyiz lapriyè Seyè a ak tout kè l' pou krapo li te voye sou farawon yo.
13 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
Seyè a fè sa Moyiz te mande l' la: krapo yo mouri toupatou, nan kay, nan lakou, nan jaden.
14 And they gathered them together in heaps; and the land stank.
Moun peyi Lejip yo ranmase yo fè gwo pil. Toupatou nan peyi a te santi move ak krapo mouri yo.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken.
Lè farawon an wè yo te ba l' yon souf, li konmanse fè tèt di ankò. Li pa koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
16 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the earth, that it may become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.'
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Di Arawon lonje baton l' lan, frape pousyè tè a. Pousyè a va tounen vèmin nan tout peyi Lejip la.
17 And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast; all the dust of the earth became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.
Moyiz ak Arawon fè sa vre. Arawon lonje men li avèk baton an, li frape pousyè tè a. Pousyè a tounen vèmin sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt. Tout pousyè tè a tounen vèmin nan tout peyi Lejip la.
18 And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring forth gnats, but they could not; and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast.
Majisyen yo vin ankò ak maji yo pou yo te fè menm bagay la tou. Men, fwa sa a, yo pa t' kapab. vèmin yo te sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt.
19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh: 'This is the finger of God'; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken.
Majisyen yo di farawon an: -Sa se travay Bondye. Men farawon an t'ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa t' vle koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
20 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him: Thus saith the LORD: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
Seyè a di Moyiz ankò: -Leve granmaten, ale jwenn farawon an lè li pral larivyè a. W'a di l': men sa Seyè a di: Kite pèp mwen an ale, pou yo ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
21 Else, if thou wilt not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
Si ou pa kite pèp mwen an ale, mwen pral voye mouchavè sou ou, sou moun pa ou yo, sou tout pèp ou a ak nan tout kay yo. Mouchavè pral plen kay moun peyi Lejip yo, yo pral kouvri tout peyi a.
22 And I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end that thou mayest know that I am the LORD in the midst of the earth.
Men jou sa a, m'a fè yon bagay pou peyi Gochenn kote pèp mwen an rete a. p'ap gen yon mouchavè la. Konsa, w'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap travay nan peyi a.
23 And I will put a division between My people and thy people — by to-morrow shall this sign be.'
m'a veye pou sa k'ap rive pèp ou a pa rive pèp mwen an. Se denmen mwen pral fè mèvèy sa a.
24 And the LORD did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses; and in all the land of Egypt the land was ruined by reason of the swarms of flies.
Seyè a fè sa vre jan l' te di l' la: yon kantite mouchavè desann sou kay farawon an, sou kay moun pa l' yo ak sou tout peyi a. Mouchavè t'ap devaste tout peyi Lejip la.
25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said: 'Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.'
Lè sa a, farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Nou mèt al ofri bèt pou touye pou Bondye nou an, men n'ap fè l' isit la nan peyi a.
26 And Moses said: 'It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God; lo, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us?
Moyiz reponn li: -Li p'ap bon pou nou fè l' konsa, paske moun peyi Lejip yo ka ofiske lè y'a wè ki kalite bèt nou touye pou ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Si nou ofri bagay sa yo devan moun peyi Lejip yo, y'a ka touye nou ak kout ròch.
27 We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as He shall command us.'
Se pou nou mache twa jou nan dezè a. Se la n'a touye bèt n'ap ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan li te di nou an.
28 And Pharaoh said: 'I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away; entreat for me.'
Farawon an di li: -Bon! M'ap kite nou al touye bèt n'ap ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nan dezè a, men se pa pou nou al twò lwen. Lèfini, lapriyè pou mwen tou.
29 And Moses said: 'Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.'
Moyiz di l' konsa: -Kou m' soti isit la, mwen pral lapriyè Seyè a. Denmen mouchavè yo ap soti sou ou ansanm ak sou moun pa ou yo ak sou tout pèp la. Yo pral byen lwen. Men, piga ou twonpe nou ankò. Pa refize kite pèp la al ofri bèt pou yo touye bay Seyè a.
30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.
Moyiz soti lakay farawon an, l' al lapriyè Seyè a.
31 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
Seyè a fè sa Moyiz te mande l' la. Li fè mouchavè yo soti sou farawon an, sou tout moun pa l' yo ansanm ak sou tout pèp la. Li fè yo ale byen lwen. Pa yon mouchavè pa t' rete.
32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.
Men, menm jou sa a, farawon an fè tèt di ankò, li pa t' vle kite pèp la ale.
