< Exodus 7 >

1 And the LORD said to Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱنْظُرْ! أَنَا جَعَلْتُكَ إِلَهًا لِفِرْعَوْنَ. وَهَارُونُ أَخُوكَ يَكُونُ نَبِيَّكَ.١
2 Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.
أَنْتَ تَتَكَلَّمُ بِكُلِّ مَا آمُرُكَ، وَهَارُونُ أَخُوكَ يُكَلِّمُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِيُطْلِقَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ.٢
3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
وَلَكِنِّي أُقَسِّي قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَأُكَثِّرُ آيَاتِي وَعَجَائِبِي فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.٣
4 But Pharaoh shall not hearken to you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt, by great judgments.
وَلَا يَسْمَعُ لَكُمَا فِرْعَوْنُ حَتَّى أَجْعَلَ يَدِي عَلَى مِصْرَ، فَأُخْرِجَ أَجْنَادِي، شَعْبِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِأَحْكَامٍ عَظِيمَةٍ.٤
5 And the Egyptians shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
فَيَعْرِفُ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَمَا أَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَى مِصْرَ وَأُخْرِجُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ».٥
6 And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded them, so did they.
فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ كَمَا أَمَرَهُمَا ٱلرَّبُّ. هَكَذَا فَعَلَا.٦
7 And Moses [was] eighty years old, and Aaron eighty and three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
وَكَانَ مُوسَى ٱبْنَ ثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً، وَهَارُونُ ٱبْنَ ثَلَاثٍ وَثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ كَلَّمَا فِرْعَوْنَ.٧
8 And the LORD spoke to Moses, and to Aaron, saying,
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ قَائِلًا:٨
9 When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Show a miracle for you: then thou shalt say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast [it] before Pharaoh, [and] it shall become a serpent.
«إِذَا كَلَّمَكُمَا فِرْعَوْنُ قَائِلًا: هَاتِيَا عَجِيبَةً، تَقُولُ لِهَارُونَ: خُذْ عَصَاكَ وَٱطْرَحْهَا أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَتَصِيرَ ثُعْبَانًا».٩
10 And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
فَدَخَلَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَفَعَلَا هَكَذَا كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ. طَرَحَ هَارُونُ عَصَاهُ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَمَامَ عَبِيدِهِ فَصَارَتْ ثُعْبَانًا.١٠
11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise-men, and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
فَدَعَا فِرْعَوْنُ أَيْضًا ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ وَٱلسَّحَرَةَ، فَفَعَلَ عَرَّافُو مِصْرَ أَيْضًا بِسِحْرِهِمْ كَذَلِكَ.١١
12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
طَرَحُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَصَاهُ فَصَارَتِ ٱلْعِصِيُّ ثَعَابِينَ. وَلَكِنْ عَصَا هَارُونَ ٱبْتَلَعَتْ عِصِيَّهُمْ.١٢
13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart that he hearkened not to them; as the LORD had said.
فَٱشْتَدَّ قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمَا، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ.١٣
14 And the LORD said to Moses, Pharaoh's heart [is] hardened; he refuseth to let the people go.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ غَلِيظٌ. قَدْ أَبَى أَنْ يُطْلِقَ ٱلشَّعْبَ.١٤
15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out to the water, and thou shalt stand by the river's brink against he cometh; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thy hand.
اِذْهَبْ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ فِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ. إِنَّهُ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى ٱلْمَاءِ، وَقِفْ لِلِقَائِهِ عَلَى حَافَةِ ٱلنَّهْرِ. وَٱلْعَصَا ٱلَّتِي تَحَوَّلَتْ حَيَّةً تَأْخُذُهَا فِي يَدِكَ.١٥
16 And thou shalt say to him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me to thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear.
وَتَقُولُ لَهُ: ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ قَائِلًا: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدُونِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. وَهُوَذَا حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ.١٦
17 Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that [is] in my hand upon the waters which [are] in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: بِهَذَا تَعْرِفُ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أَضْرِبُ بِٱلْعَصَا ٱلَّتِي فِي يَدِي عَلَى ٱلْمَاءِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلنَّهْرِ فَيَتَحَوَّلُ دَمًا.١٧
18 And the fish that [is] in the river shall die, and the river shall be offensive in smell; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.
وَيَمُوتُ ٱلسَّمَكُ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلنَّهْرِ وَيَنْتِنُ ٱلنَّهْرُ. فَيَعَافُ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ أَنْ يَشْرَبُوا مَاءً مِنَ ٱلنَّهْرِ».١٨
19 And the LORD spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood: and [that] there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [vessels of] stone.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِهَارُونَ: خُذْ عَصَاكَ وَمُدَّ يَدَكَ عَلَى مِيَاهِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ، عَلَى أَنْهَارِهِمْ وَعَلَى سَوَاقِيهِمْ، وَعَلَى آجَامِهِمْ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ مُجْتَمَعَاتِ مِيَاهِهِمْ لِتَصِيرَ دَمًا. فَيَكُونَ دَمٌ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ فِي ٱلْأَخْشَابِ وَفِي ٱلْأَحْجَارِ».١٩
20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod and smote the waters that [were] in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that [were] in the river were turned into blood.
فَفَعَلَ هَكَذَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ. رَفَعَ ٱلْعَصَا وَضَرَبَ ٱلْمَاءَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلنَّهْرِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَمَامَ عُيُونِ عَبِيدِهِ، فَتَحَوَّلَ كُلُّ ٱلْمَاءِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلنَّهْرِ دَمًا.٢٠
21 And the fish that [was] in the river died; and the river was offensive in smell, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
وَمَاتَ ٱلسَّمَكُ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلنَّهْرِ وَأَنْتَنَ ٱلنَّهْرُ، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرِ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ أَنْ يَشْرَبُوا مَاءً مِنَ ٱلنَّهْرِ. وَكَانَ ٱلدَّمُ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.٢١
22 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken to them; as the LORD had said.
وَفَعَلَ عَرَّافُو مِصْرَ كَذَلِكَ بِسِحْرِهِمْ. فَٱشْتَدَّ قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمَا، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ.٢٢
23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he regard this also.
ثُمَّ ٱنْصَرَفَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَدَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ وَلَمْ يُوَجِّهْ قَلْبَهُ إِلَى هَذَا أَيْضًا.٢٣
24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
وَحَفَرَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ حَوَالَيِ ٱلنَّهْرِ لِأَجْلِ مَاءٍ لِيَشْرَبُوا، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَشْرَبُوا مِنْ مَاءِ ٱلنَّهْرِ.٢٤
25 And seven days were fulfilled after that the LORD had smitten the river.
وَكَمُلَتْ سَبْعَةُ أَيَّامٍ بَعْدَ مَا ضَرَبَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلنَّهْرَ.٢٥
