Exodus 9
1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, "Pergilah menghadap raja, dan katakan kepadanya bahwa TUHAN, Allah orang Ibrani, berkata: 'Biarkanlah umat-Ku pergi supaya mereka dapat berbakti kepada-Ku.
2 For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,
Kalau engkau tak mau melepaskan mereka,
3 behold, the LORD’s hand is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.
Aku akan mendatangkan wabah yang dahsyat atas semua ternakmu, kuda, keledai, unta, sapi, domba dan kambingmu.
4 The LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel.”’”
Aku akan membedakan ternak orang Israel dan ternak orang Mesir. Dari ternak orang Israel tak seekor pun yang akan mati.
5 The LORD appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land.”
Aku, TUHAN, menetapkan hari esok untuk melaksanakan hal itu.'"
6 The LORD did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.
Keesokan harinya TUHAN berbuat seperti yang sudah dikatakan-Nya. Semua ternak bangsa Mesir mati, tetapi dari ternak bangsa Israel seekor pun tak ada yang mati.
7 Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn’t let the people go.
Raja menanyakan apa yang telah terjadi, lalu diceritakan kepadanya bahwa dari ternak orang Israel tak seekor pun yang mati. Tetapi raja berkeras kepala dan tidak mau melepaskan bangsa itu pergi.
8 The LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it towards the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa dan Harun, "Ambillah beberapa genggam abu dari tempat pembakaran. Di depan raja, Musa harus menghamburkan abu itu ke udara.
9 It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt.”
Maka abu itu akan tersebar ke seluruh tanah Mesir. Pada manusia dan binatang abu itu akan menimbulkan bisul-bisul yang pecah menjadi luka bernanah."
10 They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up towards the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal.
Lalu Musa dan Harun mengambil abu, dan menghadap raja. Musa menghamburkan abu itu ke udara. Pada manusia dan binatang timbullah bisul-bisul yang pecah menjadi luka bernanah.
11 The magicians couldn’t stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
Para ahli sihir tidak bisa menghadap Musa karena seluruh badan mereka penuh bisul seperti orang-orang Mesir lainnya.
12 The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken to Moses.
Tetapi TUHAN menjadikan raja keras kepala, dan seperti yang sudah dikatakan TUHAN, raja tidak mau mempedulikan perkataan Musa dan Harun.
13 The LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, "Pergilah besok pagi-pagi sekali menghadap raja, dan sampaikan kepadanya bahwa TUHAN, Allah orang Ibrani berkata: 'Lepaskan umat-Ku supaya mereka dapat pergi beribadat kepada-Ku.
14 For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
Kali ini Aku akan mendatangkan bencana tidak hanya kepada para pejabat dan rakyat saja, tetapi juga kepadamu, supaya engkau tahu bahwa tidak ada tandingan-Ku di seluruh dunia.
15 For now I would have stretched out my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;
Sekiranya Aku mau menghukum engkau dan rakyatmu dengan penyakit, pasti kamu sudah binasa sama sekali.
16 but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth,
Tetapi kamu Kubiarkan hidup, supaya Aku dapat menunjukkan kekuasaan-Ku kepadamu, sehingga nama-Ku menjadi termasyhur di seluruh bumi.
17 because you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won’t let them go.
Meskipun begitu, engkau masih juga tinggi hati dan tidak mau mengizinkan umat-Ku pergi.
18 Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
Besok pagi, pada saat yang sama, Aku akan mendatangkan hujan es yang dahsyat, seperti yang belum pernah terjadi di Mesir dari dahulu sampai sekarang.
19 Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. The hail will come down on every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn’t brought home, and they will die.”’”
Maka perintahkanlah supaya semua ternak dan segala milikmu yang ada di luar dibawa ke tempat yang aman. Semua orang dan ternak yang ada di luar dan tak dapat berlindung akan mati ditimpa hujan es.'"
20 Those who feared the LORD’s word amongst the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
Beberapa di antara para pejabat takut kepada perkataan TUHAN. Mereka membawa hamba-hamba dan ternak mereka masuk ke dalam rumah supaya terlindung.
21 Whoever didn’t respect the LORD’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Tetapi yang lain tidak mengindahkan peringatan itu dan meninggalkan hamba-hamba dan ternak mereka di padang.
22 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand towards the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
Lalu TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, "Angkatlah tanganmu ke atas, dan hujan es akan turun di seluruh tanah Mesir. Hujan itu akan menimpa manusia, ternak dan segala tanaman di ladang."
23 Moses stretched out his rod towards the heavens, and the LORD sent thunder and hail; and lightning flashed down to the earth. The LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.
Musa mengangkat tongkatnya ke atas, dan TUHAN menurunkan guruh dan hujan es, dan petir menyambar bumi. TUHAN mendatangkan
24 So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
hujan es yang dahsyat disertai petir yang sambar-menyambar. Itulah hujan es yang paling dahsyat dalam sejarah Mesir.
25 The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
Di seluruh negeri hujan es itu membinasakan segala sesuatu di ladang, termasuk manusia dan ternak. Semua tanaman di ladang rusak dan pohon-pohon ditumbangkan.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
Hanya daerah Gosyen, tempat kediaman orang-orang Israel, tidak ditimpa hujan es.
27 Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
Lalu raja memanggil Musa dan Harun, dan berkata, "Aku telah berdosa. Tuhanlah yang benar, aku dan rakyatku telah berbuat salah.
28 Pray to the LORD; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.”
Berdoalah kepada TUHAN; kami sudah cukup menderita karena guruh dan hujan es ini. Aku akan melepas kamu pergi. Kamu tak usah tinggal di sini lagi."
29 Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunders shall cease, and there will not be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
Kata Musa kepada raja, "Segera sesudah saya sampai di luar kota, saya akan mengangkat tangan untuk berdoa kepada TUHAN. Guruh akan berhenti dan hujan es akan reda, supaya Tuanku tahu bahwa bumi ini milik TUHAN.
30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you don’t yet fear the LORD God.”
Tetapi saya tahu bahwa Tuanku dan para pejabat belum juga takut kepada TUHAN Allah."
31 The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley had ripened and the flax was blooming.
Tanaman rami dan jelai musnah, karena rami sedang berbunga, dan jelai sedang berbulir.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.
Tetapi gandum dan biji-bijian tidak rusak karena belum musimnya.
33 Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to the LORD; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.
Lalu Musa meninggalkan raja dan pergi ke luar kota; di sana ia mengangkat tangannya untuk berdoa kepada TUHAN. Saat itu juga berhentilah guntur, hujan es dan hujan.
34 When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
Ketika raja melihat apa yang terjadi, ia berdosa lagi. Dia dan para pejabatnya tetap berkeras kepala.
35 The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go, just as the LORD had spoken through Moses.
Seperti yang sudah dikatakan TUHAN melalui Musa, raja tidak mau mengizinkan orang Israel pergi.
