< 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.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Ale bò kot farawon an, w'a di l': Men sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp ebre a, voye di ou: Kite pèp mwen an ale pou yo ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
2 For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,
Si ou derefize kite yo ale, si ou kenbe yo toujou, men sak pral rive:
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.
M'ap leve men m' sou bèt ou gen nan jaden ou yo: chwal, bourik, chamo, bèf, mouton, kabrit. Yon gwo maladi pral tonbe sou yo.
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.”’”
Men m'a veye pou sa ki rive bèt moun peyi Lejip yo pa rive bèt moun pèp Izrayèl yo, pou ankenn bèt moun pèp Izrayèl yo pa mouri.
5 The LORD appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land.”
Seyè a fikse jou pou l' fè bagay sa a. Li di se denmen l'ap fè sa nan tout peyi a.
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.
Nan denmen vre, Seyè a fè sa l' te di li t'ap fè a: tout bèt moun peyi Lejip yo mouri. Men, pa yonn nan bèt moun Izrayèl yo pa t' mouri.
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.
Farawon an voye pran nouvèl sak pase: li vin konnen pa t' gen yonn nan bèt moun Izrayèl yo ki te mouri. Men, farawon an t'ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa t' vle kite pèp la ale.
8 The LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
Apre sa, Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon: -Plen de men nou ak sann dife. Se pou Moyiz voye sann lan jete anlè devan farawon an.
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.”
Sann lan pral gaye tankou pousyè pou l' kouvri tout peyi Lejip la. Toupatou li pral fè yon kantite bouton leve sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt nan peyi a. Lèfini, bouton yo ap pete, y'ap fè malenng.
10 They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal.
Yo pran sann dife a, yo parèt devan farawon an. Moyiz voye sann lan jete anlè. Sann lan fè bouton leve sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt. Epi bouton yo pete fè malenng.
11 The magicians couldn’t stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
Ata majisyen yo pa t' kapab parèt devan Moyiz, paske yo te kouvri ak malenng tou tankou tout moun peyi Lejip yo.
12 The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken to Moses.
Men Seyè a te fè farawon an fè tèt di pi rèd. Farawon an pa t' koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di Moyiz la.
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.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Leve granmaten, al parèt devan farawon an. W'a di l': Men sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp ebre a, voye di ou: Kite pèp mwen an ale pou yo ka al fè sèvis pou mwen.
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.
Paske, fwa sa a, mwen pral voye tout kalite malè mwen konn fè yo sou ou menm menm, sou moun pa ou yo ak sou tout pèp ou a. Konsa, w'a konnen pa gen tankou m' sou tout latè.
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;
Si mwen te lonje men m' pou m' te lage lanmò sou ou ansanm ak tout pèp ou a, nou tout nou te disparèt nèt sou latè.
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,
Men, mwen kite nou viv pou nou kapab wè pouvwa mwen, pou moun ka nonmen non m' sou tout latè.
17 because you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won’t let them go.
Men w'ap pran pòz awogan ou avèk pèp mwen an, ou pa vle kite yo ale.
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.
Koute! Fwa sa a, denmen mwen pral fè lagrèl tonbe tankou lapli, bagay moun poko janm wè nan peyi Lejip, depi peyi a peyi jouk jounen jòdi a.
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.”’”
Koulye a, bay lòd pou yo pran tout bèt nou gen nan jaden ak tout lòt bagay nou gen deyò mete yo anndan kay pou pwoteje yo. Paske, yon gwo lagrèl pral tonbe sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt ki deyò. Yo pral mouri.
20 Those who feared the LORD’s word among the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
Te gen kèk moun nan moun pa farawon yo ki te pè lè yo tande sa Seyè a te di. Yo fè tout domestik yo ansanm ak tout bèt yo antre anba kay.
21 Whoever didn’t respect the LORD’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Men, gen lòt ki pa t' okipe sa Seyè a te di. Yo kite tout domestik yo ak tout bèt yo deyò.
22 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward 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.”
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Leve men ou anlè. Lagrèl pral tonbe sou tout peyi Lejip la, sou tout moun ki deyò, sou tout bèt ak sou tout plant ki nan jaden.
23 Moses stretched out his rod toward 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.
Moyiz lonje baton l' lan anlè nan syèl la. Seyè a voye loraj, lagrèl ak zèklè. Loraj la tonbe anpil kote. Wi, Seyè a voye lagrèl sou tout peyi Lejip la.
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.
Lagrèl t'ap tonbe, zèklè t'ap fè yanyan nan syèl la. Se te pi gwo kout tan ki te tonbe sou peyi a depi peyi a peyi.
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.
Lagrèl tonbe toupatou nan peyi Lejip la. Li tonbe sou tou sa ki te deyò, sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt. Li tonbe sou tout plant ki nan jaden, li kraze tout pyebwa.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
Se sèl nan peyi Gochenn lan lagrèl la pa t' tonbe. Se la moun pèp Izrayèl yo te rete.
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.
Farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo konsa: -Fwa sa a, mwen rekonèt tò mwen. Se Seyè a ki gen rezon. Se mwen menm ak pèp mwen an ki antò.
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.”
Lapriyè Seyè a pou l' fè loraj la sispann, pou l' fè lagrèl la rete. Mwen pwomèt pou m' kite nou ale. Nou pa bezwen rete ankò.
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.
Moyiz di l' konsa: -Soti m' soti lavil la, mwen pral lapriyè nan pye Seyè a. Loraj la va sispann, p'ap gen lagrèl ankò. Konsa w'a konnen tè a se pou Seyè a li ye.
30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you don’t yet fear the LORD God.”
Men mwen konnen ni ou menm, ni moun pa ou yo, nou poko ap respekte Seyè a, Bondye a.
31 The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley had ripened and the flax was blooming.
Tout pye koton swa yo ak tout jaden lòj yo te boule. Lòj la te deja fè grap, koton yo t'ap fleri.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.
Men ble ak pitimi pa t' gate, paske yo toujou an reta sou lòt plant yo.
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.
Moyiz soti lakay farawon an, l' al andeyò lavil la. Li lapriyè nan pye Seyè a. Loraj la sispann, lagrèl la rete. pa t' gen lapli ankò.
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.
Lè farawon an wè lapli a, lagrèl la ak loraj la sispann, li kontinye fè peche toujou. Li fè tèt di, li menm ansanm ak tout moun pa l' yo.
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.
Nan fè tèt di sa a, li pa t' kite moun pèp Izrayèl yo ale, jan Seyè a te fè Moyiz al di l' la.
