< Exodus 10 >

1 The LORD said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in the midst of them,
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 you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son's son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am the LORD."
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 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, "This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself 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 Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, look, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
Soki oboyi kotika bango kokende, lobi nakotinda mabanki na mokili na yo.
5 and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won't be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of 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 Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither your fathers nor your fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.'" 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 Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve their God. Do you not yet know that Egypt is destroyed?"
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 Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve your God; but who are those who will 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 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 must hold a feast to the LORD."
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 He said to them, "The LORD be with you if I will let you go with your dependents. See, evil is clearly before your faces.
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 you who are men, and serve God; for that is what you desire." 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 The LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt and eat every plant of the land, even all that the hail has 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 Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all the night; and 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 The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall 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 For they covered the surface of the whole land, so that the land was destroyed, and they ate every plant of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or plant of the field, through all 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 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, "I have sinned against the LORD 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 Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to the LORD your God, that he may also take away from me this death."
Sik’oyo lisusu, bolimbisa lisumu na ngai. Bobondela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpo ete alongola etumbu oyo ya kufa kati na ngai.
18 He went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to God.
Moyize atikaki Faraon mpe abondelaki Yawe.
19 The LORD turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up 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 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, 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 The LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt."
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 Moses stretched forth his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all 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 did not see one another, neither did anyone rise 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 Then Pharaoh called to Moses and to Aaron and said, "Go, serve the LORD. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your dependents 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 Moses said, "You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
Kasi Moyize alobaki: — Okopesa biso mbeka mpe makabo ya kotumba oyo tokobonzela Yawe, Nzambe na biso.
26 Our livestock must also go with us; not a hoof is left behind, for of it we must take to serve the LORD our God; and we do not know with what we must serve the LORD, 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 the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he wouldn't let them go.
Kasi Yawe akomisaki lisusu motema ya Faraon makasi; mpe Faraon aboyaki kaka kotika bango kokende.
28 Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me. Make sure you never see my face again; for in the day you see my face you shall 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 Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will not see your face again."
Moyize azongisaki: — Ndenge kaka olobi, nakotikala koya lisusu liboso na yo te!
