Exodus 11
1 The LORD said to Moses, “I will bring yet one more plague on Pharaoh, and on Egypt; afterwards he will let you go. When he lets you go, he will surely thrust you out altogether.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «بَقِيَتْ بَلِيَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ أُصِيبُ بِها فِرْعَوْنَ وَالْمِصْرِيِّينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يُطْلِقُكُمْ مِنْ هُنَا. وَعِنْدَمَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يَطْرُدُكُمْ جَمِيعاً طَرْداً. | ١ |
2 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man ask of his neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.”
| فَقُلِ الآنَ لِلشَّعْبِ: لِيَطْلُبْ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جَارِهِ، وَكُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ جَارَتِهَا، آنِيَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ». | ٢ |
3 The LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants, and in the sight of the people.
| ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ جَعَلَ الشَّعْبَ يَحْظَى بِرِضَى الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، كَمَا أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ مُوسَى كَانَ عَظِيماً فِي مِصْرَ فِي عُيُونِ حَاشِيَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَالشَّعْبِ. | ٣ |
4 Moses said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go out into the middle of Egypt,
| وَقَالَ مُوسَى هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: «سَأَجْتَازُ حَوَالَي نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ فِي وَسَطِ مِصْرَ، | ٤ |
5 and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the mill, and all the firstborn of livestock.
| فَيَمُوتُ كُلُّ بِكْرٍ فِيهَا: مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ الْمُتَرَبِّعِ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ إِلَى بِكْرِ الأَمَةِ الَّتِي وَرَاءَ الرَّحَى، وَكَذَلِكَ بِكْرِ كُلِّ بَهِيمَةٍ، | ٥ |
6 There will be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, nor will be any more.
| فَيَعْلُو صُرَاخٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، لَمْ يُشْهَدْ مِثْلُهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلا يَكُونُ مِثْلُهُ أَيْضاً. | ٦ |
7 But against any of the children of Israel a dog won’t even bark or move its tongue, against man or animal, that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between the Egyptians and Israel.
| أَمَّا بَيْنَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ فَلَنْ يَنْبَحَ كَلْبٌ عَلَى أَيِّ إِنْسَانٍ أَوْ حَيَوَانٍ. وَعِنْدَئِذٍ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٧ |
8 All these servants of yours will come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, “Get out, with all the people who follow you;” and after that I will go out.’” He went out from Pharaoh in hot anger.
| فَيَأْتِي إِلَيَّ، مِنْ ثَمَّ، جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِكَ هَؤُلاءِ وَيَنْحَنُونَ أَمَامِي قَائِلِينَ: انْطَلِقْ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتْبَعُكَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ. وَآنَئِذٍ فَقَطْ أَمْضِي». ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ بِغَضَبٍ مُحْتَدِمٍ. | ٨ |
9 The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh won’t listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ يَأْبَى الاسْتِمَاعَ لَكُمَا لِكَيْ تَتَكَاثَرَ آيَاتِي فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». | ٩ |
10 Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go out of his land.
| وَلَقَدْ أَجْرَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ الآيَاتِ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَسَّى قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِهِ. | ١٠ |
