< Exodus 10 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Go in to Pharao: for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that these signs may come upon them; in order
Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Ale vè Farawon, paske Mwen te fè kè l di, ak kè a sèvitè li yo, pou Mwen kapab fè sign sa yo selon Mwen menm pami yo,
2 that you may relate in the ears of your children, and to your children's children, in how many things I have mocked the Egyptians, and my wonders which I wrought among them; and you shall know that I [am] the Lord.
epi pou ou kapab rakonte nan zòrèy fis ou yo, ak fis a fis ou yo sa Mwen te fè Égypte, ak jan Mwen te fè sign Mwen yo pami yo, pou nou kapab konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”
3 And Moses and Aaron went in before Pharao, and they said to him, These things says the Lord God of the Hebrews, How long do you refuse to reverence me? Send my people away, that they may serve me.
Moïse avèk Aaron te ale vè Farawon, e te di li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a Ebre yo: ‘Jiska konbyen de tan ou va refize imilye ou devan Mwen? Kite pèp Mwen an ale, pou yo kapab sèvi Mwen.
4 But if you will not send my people away, behold, at this hour to-morrow I will bring an abundance of locusts upon all your coasts.
“‘Oswa, si ou refize kite pèp Mwen an ale, gade byen, demen Mwen va mennen krikèt nan teritwa pa w la.
5 And they shall cover the face of the earth, and you shall not be able to see the earth; and they shall devour all that is left of the abundance of the earth, which the hail has left you, and shall devour every tree that grows for you on the land.
Yo va kouvri tout sifas latè pou pèsòn pa kab wè tè a. Yo va anplis manje rès nan sa ki te chape yo—sa ki te rete pou ou aprè lagrèl la—e yo va manje chak bwa ki vin boujonnen pou ou nan chan an.
6 And your houses shall be filled, and the houses of your servants, and all the houses in all the land of the Egyptians; things which your fathers have never seen, nor their forefathers, from the day that they were upon the earth until this day. And Moses turned away and departed from Pharao.
Konsa, kay nou yo va vin ranpli, kay a tout sèvitè nou yo, e kay a tout Ejipsyen yo, yon bagay ke ni papa nou yo, ni papa a papa nou yo pa t janm wè, depi jou ke yo te vini sou tè a, jiska jodi a.’” Konsa, li te vire kite Farawon.
7 And the servants of Pharao say to him, How long shall this be a snare to us? send away the men, that they may serve their God; will you know that Egypt is destroyed?
Sèvitè Farawon yo te di li: “Pou konbyen de tan mesye sila a ap rete tankou yon pèlen pou nou? Kite mesye yo ale pou yo kapab sèvi SENYÈ Bondye a yo a. Èske ou pa wè ke Égypte gen tan fin detwi?”
8 And they brought back both Moses and Aaron to Pharao; and he said to them, Go and serve the Lord your God; but who are they that are going with you?
Alò, yo te mennen Moïse avèk Aaron retounen vè Farawon. Li te di yo: “Ale sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a! Kilès nan nou k ap prale yo?”
9 And Moses said, We will go with the young and the old, with our sons, and daughters, and sheep, and oxen, for it is a feast of the Lord.
Moïse te di: “Nou va ale avèk jenn nou yo, ak granmoun nou yo. Avèk fis nou yo ak fi nou yo, avèk bann mouton nou yo, ak twoupo nou yo. Nou va ale, paske nou oblije fè yon fèt pou onore SENYÈ a.”
10 And he said to them, So let the Lord be with you: as I [will] send you away, [must I send away] you store also? see that evil is attached to you.
Alò li te di yo: “Vrèman SENYÈ a avèk nou, si janmen ou wè mwen ta kite nou avèk pitit nou yo ale! Veye nou, paske se mechanste nou anvizaje nan tèt nou.
11 Not so, but let the men go and serve God, for this you yourselves seek; and they cast them out from the presence of Pharao.
Se pa konsa! Ale koulye a ak mesye ki pami nou yo, pou sèvi SENYÈ a, konsi se sa menm nou vle fè.” Konsa yo te chase yo ale kite prezans Farawon.
12 And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt, and let the locust come up on the land, and it shall devour every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees, which the hail left.
Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Lonje men ou sou peyi Égypte la pou krikèt yo, pou yo kapab vin monte sou peyi Égypte la, pou yo ka manje chak plan ki nan tè a, menm tout sa ke lagrèl la te kite yo.”
13 And Moses lifted up his rod towards heaven, and the Lord brought a south wind upon the earth, all that day and all that night: the morning dawned, and the south wind brought up the locusts,
Alò, Moïse te lonje baton li sou peyi Égypte la, e SENYÈ a te dirije yon van lès sou latè pandan tout jounen an, ak tout nwit lan. Epi lè li te vin maten, van lès la te pote krikèt yo.
14 and brought them up over all the land of Egypt. And they rested in very great abundance over all the borders of Egypt. Before them there were not such locusts, neither after them shall there be.
Krikèt yo te vini sou tout latè an Égypte. Yo te vin rete nan tout teritwa Égypte la; yo te debòde l nèt. Pa t janm genyen fòs kantite krikèt egal a sa a, ni p ap janm genyen ankò.
15 And they covered the face of the earth, and the land was wasted, and they devoured all the herbage of the land, and all the fruit of the trees, which was left by the hail: there was no green thing left on the trees, nor on all the herbage of the field, in all the land of Egypt.
Paske yo te kouvri sifas tout tè a, jiskaske latè te vin tounwa, epi yo te manje chak plant peyi a ak tout fwi nan bwa ke lagrèl te kite yo. Konsa, anyen vèt pa t rete nan bwa yo ni plant chan yo nan tout peyi Égypte la.
16 And Pharao hasted to call Moses and Aaron, saying, I have sinned before the Lord your God, and against you;
Alò, Farawon te fè vit pou rele Moïse avèk Aaron, e li te di: “Mwen te peche kont SENYÈ a Bondye nou an, e kont nou menm.
17 pardon therefore my sin yet this time, and pray to the Lord your God, and let him take away from me this death.
Alò, pou sa, souple padone peche mwen yo sèlman pou fwa sa a, e fè lapriyè pou mwen bay SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou Li ta sèlman retire lanmò sa a sou mwen.”
18 And Moses went forth from Pharao, and prayed to God.
Li te sòti devan Farawon e li te fè lapriyè bay SENYÈ a.
19 And the Lord brought in the opposite direction a strong wind from the sea, and took up the locusts and cast them into the Red Sea, and there was not one locust left in all the land of Egypt.
Alò, SENYÈ a te fè van an chanje an yon van lwès byen fò ki te leve pran tout krikèt yo, e te voye yo nan Lamè Wouj. Menm yon sèl krikèt pa t rete nan tout teritwa Égypte la.
20 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao, and he did not send away the children of Israel.
Men SENYÈ a te fè kè Farawon an vin di, e li pa t kite fis Israël yo ale.
21 And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand to heaven, and let there be darkness over the land of Egypt—darkness that may be felt.
Alò SENYÈ a te di Moïse: “Lonje men ou vè syèl la, pou kapab vin gen tenèb sou tout peyi Égypte la, menm yon tenèb tèlman lou ke yon moun ka santi l.”
22 And Moses stretched out his hand to heaven, and there was darkness very black, even a storm over all the land of Egypt three days.
Alò Moïse te lonje men l vè syèl la, e te vin gen yon pwofon tenèb nan tout peyi Égypte la pandan twa jou.
23 And for three days no man saw his brother, and no man rose up from his bed for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in all the places where they were.
Yo pa t kapab wè youn lòt ni pèsòn pa t leve kite kote yo ye a pandan twa jou. Men tout fis Israël yo te gen limyè nan andwa pa yo a.
24 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, saying, Go, serve the Lord your God, only leave your sheep and your oxen, and let your store depart with you.
Alò Farawon te rele Moïse. Li te di: “Ale, sèvi SENYÈ a, men kite bann mouton avèk twoupo yo dèyè. Menm pitit nou yo kapab ale avèk nou.”
25 And Moses said, Nay, but you shall give to us whole burnt offerings and sacrifices, which we will sacrifice to the Lord our God.
Men Moïse te di: “Ou oblije osi kite nou fè sakrifis e brile ofrann, pou nou kapab fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
26 And our cattle shall go with us, and we will not leave a hoof behind, for of them we will take to serve the Lord our God: but we know not in what manner we shall serve the Lord our God, until we arrive there.
Pou sa, bèt nou yo tou ap prale avèk nou. Pa menm youn zago k ap rete dèyè, paske nou va pran kèk nan yo pou sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Epi jiskaske nou rive la, nou menm pa konnen avèk kilès nan yo nou oblije sèvi SENYÈ a.”
27 But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao, and he would not let them go.
Men SENYÈ a te fè kè a Farawon vin di, e li pa t dakò kite yo ale.
28 And Pharao says, Depart from me, beware of seeing my face again, for in what day you shall appear before me, you shall die.
Alò, Farawon te di li: “Sòti sou mwen! Veye ou pou pa wè figi m ankò, paske nan jou ou wè figi m ou va mouri.”
29 And Moses says, You have said, I will not appear in your presence again.
Moïse te di: “Ou gen rezon; Mwen p ap janmen wè figi ou ankò!”
