Exodus 8
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back to the king and tell him, ‘Yahweh says that you must let my people go, in order that they can worship me [in the desert].
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 you refuse to let them go, I will punish you by sending frogs to cover your country.
E se recusares deixal-o ir, eis que ferirei com rãs todos os teus termos.
3 [Not only] will the Nile [River] be full of frogs, [but] the frogs will come up [out of the river] into your palace. They will come into your bedroom and onto your bed. They will be in the houses of your officials and all [the rest of] your people. They will even get into your ovens and your pans for mixing the materials for baking bread.
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 The frogs will jump up on you and your officials and [all the rest of] your people.’”
E as rãs subirão sobre ti, e sobre o teu povo, e sobre todos os teus servos.
5 Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Say this to Aaron: ‘Hold your stick in your hand and stretch it out [as though you were stretching it] over the river, the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up [from all this water and] cover 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 [After Moses/I told that to] Aaron, he stretched out his hand [as though he were stretching it] over all the water in Egypt. And the frogs came up [from the water and] covered Egypt.
E Aarão estendeu a sua mão sobre as aguas do Egypto, e subiram rãs, e cobriram a terra do Egypto.
7 But the men who performed magic did the same thing, and they caused [more] frogs to come up [from the water onto the land].
Então os magos fizeram o mesmo com os seus encantamentos: e fizeram subir rãs sobre a terra do Egypto.
8 Then the king summoned Moses/me and said, “Ask Yahweh to take away these frogs from me and my people. After that happens, I will allow your people to go, in order that they can offer sacrifices to Yahweh.”
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 Moses/I said to the king, “I will be glad to pray for you and for your officials and for [the rest of] your people. [I will ask Yahweh] to get rid of the frogs from all your houses. The only frogs left will be [those] in the Nile [River]. Just tell me when I should pray.”
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 He replied, “Tomorrow.” So Moses/I said, “[I will do] what you say, and then you will know that Yahweh God, the one we [worship, is the only true god], and that there is no other god like him.
E elle disse: Ámanhã. E Moysés disse: Seja conforme á tua palavra, para que saibas que ninguem ha como o Senhor nosso Deus.
11 The frogs will leave you and your officials and all [the rest of] your people. The only ones left will be in the Nile [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 Aaron and Moses/I left the king. Then Moses/I prayed to Yahweh, [asking him to take away] all the frogs he had [brought to the king’s land].
Então saiu Moysés e Aarão de Pharaó: e Moysés clamou ao Senhor por causa das rãs que tinha posto sobre Pharaó,
13 And Yahweh did just what Moses/I [asked him to do]. As a result, all the frogs in the houses, in their courtyards, and in the fields died.
E o Senhor fez conforme á palavra de Moysés: e as rãs morreram nas casas, nos pateos, e nos campos,
14 The people gathered together all the dead frogs into big piles, and the land stank [from the smell].
E ajuntaram-as em montões, e a terra fedeu.
15 But when the king saw that [the problem] was ended, he became stubborn [IDM] [again]. And just as Yahweh had predicted, he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/we told him.
Vendo pois Pharaó que havia descanço, aggravou o seu coração, e não os ouviu, como o Senhor tinha dito
16 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell Aaron to strike the ground with his stick. [When he does that], all the fine particles of ground/dust will become gnats, all over 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 So they/we did that. Aaron struck the ground with his stick, and all over Egypt, the fine particles of ground/dirt became gnats. The gnats covered the people and all [their] animals.
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 The men who worked magic tried to cause gnats to appear, but they were unable to do it. So the gnats [stayed] on the Egyptian people and on their animals.
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 The men who worked magic said to the king, “It is God who has done this with his power [MTY]!” But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to us, just as Yahweh had predicted.
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 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Get up early [tomorrow] morning. [Go down] to the river and wait for the king. [When he comes to bathe] [MTY], say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh says to you: “Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert].
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 [I warn you that] if you do not let my people go, I will send swarms of flies to you. They will come down on you and on your officials and on [the rest of] your people. The houses of all you Egyptians will be full of flies. They will [even] cover the ground.
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 But when that happens, I will treat the Goshen region, where my people live, differently. There will be no swarms of flies there. In that way, you will know that I, Yahweh, am doing these things [here] in this land.
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 I will distinguish clearly between [how I act toward] my people and [how I act toward] your people. And this plague is going to happen tomorrow!”’”
E porei separação entre o meu povo e o teu povo: ámanhã será este signal.
24 [Early the next morning, Moses/I told that to the king, but the king would not pay any attention]. So Yahweh did what he said he would do. He sent great swarms of flies into the palace of the king and into the houses of his officials. The whole country of Egypt was ruined by the 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 Then the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You Israeli people can go and offer sacrifices to your god, [but you must do it] here in [this] land.”
Então chamou Pharaó a Moysés e a Aarão, e disse: Ide, e sacrificae ao vosso Deus n'esta terra.
26 But Moses/I replied, “It would not be right [for us] to do that, because we will be offering sacrifices that are very offensive to the Egyptian people. If we offer sacrifices that the Egyptian people think are disgusting, they will kill us by throwing stones at us [RHQ]!
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 No, we need to travel for three days into the desert. There we will offer sacrifices to Yahweh, the God we worship, just as he commands (OR, has commanded) us.”
Deixa-nos ir caminho de tres dias ao deserto, para que sacrifiquemos ao Senhor nosso Deus, como elle nos dirá.
28 So the king said, “I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, your god, in the desert. But you must not go very far. [Now] 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 Moses/I said, “Listen [to me]! After I leave you, I will pray to Yahweh, [asking] that tomorrow [he will cause] the swarms of flies to leave you and your officials and [the rest of] your people. But do not deceive us again by refusing to let our people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh!”
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 Then Moses/I left the king and prayed to Yahweh.
Então saiu Moysés de Pharaó, e orou ao Senhor,
31 And Yahweh did what Moses/I asked, and he got rid of the swarms of flies from [around] the king and his officials and [the rest of] his people. No flies remained.
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 But the king was stubborn [IDM] this time also, and he did not allow the Israeli people to go.
Mas aggravou Pharaó ainda esta vez seu coração, e não deixou ir o povo.
