< Exodus 6 >
1 And the Lord seide to Moises, Now thou schalt se, what thingis Y schal do to Farao; for bi strong hond he schal delyuere hem, and in myyti hond he schal caste hem out of his lond.
上主回答梅瑟說:「現在你就要看見我對法朗所要作的;在強硬的手臂下,他必放走他們;在強硬的手腕下,他必將他們逐出自己的國境。」
2 And the Lord spak to Moises,
天主訓示梅瑟說:「我是雅威。
3 and seide, Y am the Lord, that apperide to Abraham, and to Isaac, and to Jacob in Almyyti God; and Y schewide not to hem my greet name Adonai;
我曾顯現給亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯為「全能的天主,」但沒有以「雅威」的名字將我啟示給他們。
4 and Y made couenaunt with hem, that Y schulde yyue to hem the lond of Canaan, the lond of her pilgrymage, in which thei weren comelyngis.
我也與他們立了約,許下將他們寄居而作客的客納罕地賜給他們。
5 Y herde the weilyng of the sones of Israel, in which the Egipcians oppresseden hem, and Y hadde mynde of my couenaunt.
如今我聽見了以色列子民因埃及人的奴役而發的唉號,想起了我的約。
6 Therfor seie thou to the sones of Israel, Y am the Lord, that schal lede out you of the prisoun of Egipcians; and Y schal delyuere fro seruage; and Y schal ayen bie in `an hiy arm, and in grete domes;
為此你應該對以色列子民說:我是上主,我要使你們擺脫埃及人的虐待,拯救你們脫離他們的奴役,用伸開的手臂,藉嚴厲的懲罰救贖你們。
7 and Y schal take you to me in to a puple, and Y schal be youre God; and ye schulen wite, for Y am youre Lord God, `which haue led you out of the prisoun of Egipcians,
我要以你們作我的百姓,我作你們的天主。你們將承認我是天主,你們的天主,使你們擺脫埃及人的虐待。
8 and haue led you in to the lond, on which Y reiside myn hond, that Y schulde yyue it to Abraham, and to Ysaac, and to Jacob; and Y schal yyue to you that lond to be weldid; I the Lord.
我領你們要去的地方,就是我舉手誓許給亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯的地方;我要把那地方賜給你們作產業。─我是上主。」
9 Therfor Moises telde alle thingis to the sones of Irael, whiche assentide not to hym for the angwisch of spirit, and for the hardest werk.
梅瑟將這些話告訴了以色列子民,但他們由於苦工喪氣,不肯聽梅瑟的話。
10 And the Lord spak to Moises,
上主訓示梅瑟說:「
11 and seide, Entre thou, and speke to Farao, kyng of Egipt, that he delyuere the children of Israel fro his lond.
你去告訴埃及王法朗說:」叫他將以色列子民由他國中放走。」
12 Moises answeride bifore the Lord, Lo! the children of Israel here not me, and hou schal Farao here, moost sithen Y am vncircumcidid in lippis?
梅瑟當面回答上主說:「以色列子民既不肯聽我,法朗又怎肯聽我﹖況且我又是笨口結舌的人。」
