< Exodus 10 >

1 YHWH 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,
BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pharaoh te paan laeh, a khui ah ka miknoek ka khueh ham dongah ni amah lungbuei neh a sal rhoek kah lungbuei khaw ka thangpom sak.
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 YHWH."
Te daengah ni na ca rhoek neh na ca kah a ca hna dongah Egypt te ka poelyoe tih amih taengah ka miknoek ka khueh te na tae uh vetih tite kai he Yahweh la nan ming uh eh,” a ti nah.
3 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, "This is what YHWH, 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.
Te dongah Moses neh Aaron te Pharaoh taengah cet tih anih te, “Hebrew kah Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Me hil nim ka mikhmuh ah yalh ham na aal ve, ka pilnam te hlah lamtah kai ham thothueng uh saeh.
4 Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, look, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
Tedae ka pilnam te hlah ham na aal atah na khorhi la thangvuen ah kaisih kang khuen ni ne.
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.
Te vaengah diklai hman he a thing vetih lai he tueng thai mahpawh. Rhael lamloh nangmih taengah aka sueng rhalyong hlangrhuel han caak vetih khohmuen ah nangmih ham aka duei thingkung boeih khaw a caak ni.
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.
Namah im neh na sal boeih kah im ah khaw, Egypt pum kah im ah khaw bae ni. Diklai ah a om uh hnin lamloh tahae khohnin duela na pa rhoek neh na pa kah a napa rhoek loh a hmuh uh noek moenih,” a ti nah rhoi. Te phoeiah mael rhoi tih Pharaoh taeng lamloh nong rhoi.
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?"
Te vaengah Pharaoh kah sal rhoek loh a taengah, “Me hil nim mamih taengah hlaeh la a om ve he. tongpa rhoek te tueih mai lamtah a Pathen Yaweh taengah thothueng uh saeh, Egypt a rhawp coeng he na ming hlan nim?” a ti uh.
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?"
Te dongah Moses neh Aaron te Pharaoh taengla a mael puei uh tih amih rhoi te, “Cet uh lamtah na Pathen Yahweh taengah thothueng uh. Tedae ubang ubang lae a caeh eh?” a ti nah.
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 YHWH."
Te phoeiah Moses loh, “Camoe neh patong khaw ka cet uh vetih, ka capa neh ka canu khaw, ka boiva neh ka saelhung neh ka BOEIPA kah khotue te ka paan uh ni,” a ti nah.
10 He said to them, "YHWH be with you if I will let you go with your dependents. See, evil is clearly before your faces.
Te phoeiah amih rhoi te, “BOEIPA te nangmih taengah om tangloeng saeh. Nangmih neh na camoe rhoek te kan hlah sitoe cakhaw na maelhmai ah boethae phaeng tueng.
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.
Te tlam moenih. Te te na hoe uh dongah tongpa rhoek te cet uh lamtah BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh laeh,” a ti nah tih amih rhoi te Pharaoh mikhmuh lamloh a haek.
12 YHWH 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."
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Kaisih ham te Egypt khohmuen ah na kut thueng laeh. Te vaengah Egypt Khohmuen ah pongpa vetih rhael loh a hlun boeih neh khohmuen baelhing boeih te a caak bitni,” a ti nah.
13 Moses stretched forth his staff over the land of Egypt, and YHWH 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.
Te dongah Moses loh a conghol te Egypt khohmuen la a thueng. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh khothoeng yilh te khohmuen sola khohnin yung neh khoyin puet ah a thawn pah. Mincang a pha vaengah kanghawn yilh loh kaisih a khuen pah.
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.
Kaisih khaw Egypt khohmuen tom ah van tih Egypt khorhi boeih ah bop. A mikhmuh ah tlung khungdaeng coeng tih te bang kaisih te ana om noek pawt tih te hnukah khaw om bal mahpawh.
15 For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, 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.
Diklai hman te boeih a thing tih diklai khaw hmuep. Diklai baelhing boeih neh rhael loh a hlun thing thaih boeih te a caak. Te dongah thing hing neh lohma baelhing boeih tah Egypt khohmuen tom ah sueng voel pawh.
16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, "I have sinned against YHWH your God, and against you.
Te vaengah Pharaoh tah Moses neh Aaron te khue hamla tokthuet tih, “Na Pathen Yahweh teang neh nangmih taengah ka tholh coeng.
17 Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to YHWH your God, that he may also take away from me this death."
Te dongah ka tholhnah he phuei mai laeh. Na Pathen BOEIPA taengah vai mah thangthui rhoi lamtah dueknah he khaw kai taeng lamloh nong sak saeh,” a ti nah.
18 He went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to God.
Te dongah Pharaoh taeng lamloh nong rhoi tih BOEIPA taengah a thangthui pah.
19 YHWH 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.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh khotlak yilh te bahoeng a tlungluen la a maelh tih kaisih te a khuen. Carhaek tuipuei la a yawn tih Egypt khorhi tom ah kaisih pakhat khaw hlun pawh.
20 But YHWH hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
Tedae BOEIPA loh Pharaoh lungbuei te te a moem pah dongah Israel ca rhoek te hlah pawh.
21 YHWH 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."
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Vaan la na kut thueng lamtah a hmuep loh Egypt khohmuen a tlak thil vaengah a hmuep te phatuem saeh,” a ti nah.
22 Moses stretched forth his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.
Te dongah Moses loh a kut te vaan la a thueng tih Egypt khohmuen boeih te khohmuep hmaisuep loh hnin thum a khuk.
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.
Hlang loh a manuca khaw hmu pawt tih hlang he amah lamloh hnin thum khuiah thoo uh voel pawh. Tedae Israel ca boeih ham tah a tolrhum ah vangnah om.
24 Then Pharaoh called to Moses and to Aaron and said, "Go, serve YHWH. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your dependents also go with you."
Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Moses te a khue tih, “Cet uh lamtah BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh. Tedae na boiva neh na saelhung te khueh lamtah na ca rhoek khaw namamih neh cet uh,” a ti nah.
25 Moses said, "You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to YHWH our God.
Tedae Moses loh, “Namah long khaw kaimih kut ah hmueih neh hmueihhlutnah te nam paek uh daengah man ka Pathen Yahweh te ka nawn uh thai ve.
26 Our livestock must also go with us; not a hoof is left behind, for of it we must take to serve YHWH our God; and we do not know with what we must serve YHWH, until we come there."
Te dongah ka boiva khaw kamamih neh ka puei uh vetih a khomae pataeng hlun mahpawh. Kaimih kah Pathen Yahweh taengah thothueng ham vaengah te khui lamkah ni ka loh uh eh. Tedae te la ka pawk uh hlan atah BOEIPA taengah metla thothueng ham khaw ka ming uh moenih,” a ti.
27 But YHWH hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he wouldn't let them go.
BOEIPA loh Pharaoh lungbuei te a moem pah dongah amih te hlah ham huem pawh.
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."
Te dongah anih te Pharaoh loh, “Kai taeng lamloh nong laeh, nang te ngaithuen, ka maelhmai hmuh ham koei voel boeh, ka maelhmai na hmuh hnin ah na duek ni,” a ti nah.
29 Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will not see your face again."
Te dongah Moses loh, “Na thui bangla na maelhmai hmuh ham koep ka khoep mahpawh,” a ti nah.
