Egzòd 11
1 Seyè a di Moyiz: -Mwen pral voye yon lòt malè sou farawon an ak sou peyi Lejip la. Apre sa, l'ap kite nou ale. Wi, lè l'a pare pou l' kite nou ale a, se mete l'ap mete nou deyò.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I will cause one more disaster to strike the king of Egypt and all his people [MTY]. After that, he will let you leave. In fact, he will expel you all.
2 Pale ak pèp Izrayèl la. Se pou yo chak mande vwazen ak vwazen yo fè yo kado bagay yo genyen ki fèt an ajan osinon an lò.
So now speak to all the [Israeli] people. Tell them to ask all their [Egyptian] neighbors, both men and women, to give them some silver and gold jewelry.”
3 Seyè a te fè moun peyi Lejip yo vin gen kè sansib pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Pou Moyiz menm, tout moun nan peyi a te gen gwo respè pou li. Moun farawon yo ansanm ak tout pèp la te respekte Moyiz anpil.
Yahweh made the Egyptians highly respect the Israeli people. In particular, the Egyptian officials and all [the rest of] the people considered Moses/me to be a very great man.
4 Moyiz di farawon an: -Men sa Seyè a di: Aswè a, nan mitan lannwit, m'ap pase kay moun peyi Lejip yo.
Then Moses/I [went to the king and] said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘About midnight [tonight] I will go throughout Egypt,
5 Tout premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo pral mouri, depi premye pitit farawon an, ki chita sou fotèy la, jouk premye pitit gason dènye klas sèvant k'ap travay nan moulen. Premye pitit tout bèt pral mouri tou.
and I will cause all the firstborn/oldest [sons] to die. That will include your oldest son, the oldest sons of the slave women who grind grain, [and the oldest sons of everyone else]. I will also kill the oldest males of the Egyptians’ livestock.
6 Pral gen yon sèl gwo rèl nan tout peyi a, rèl moun poko janm tande, rèl moun p'ap janm tande ankò.
When that happens, people all over Egypt will wail loudly. They have never wailed like that before, and they will never wail like that again.
7 Men, nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la, ou p'ap menm tande yon chen wouke, paske ni moun ni bèt p'ap mouri la. Konsa, w'a konnen Seyè a fè yon diferans ant pèp peyi Lejip la ak pèp Izrayèl la.
But among the Israeli people [it will be so quiet that] not even a dog will bark! Then you will know for sure that I, Yahweh, distinguish [how I act toward] the Egyptians and [how I act toward] the Israeli people.
8 Lè sa a, tout moun pa ou yo pral desann vin kote mwen. Y'ap bese tèt yo jouk atè devan mwen. y'a di m': Ale non, ou menm ansanm ak tou pèp ou a. Se lè sa a, m'a pati. Lèfini, Moyiz soti byen fache lakay farawon an.
Then all these officials of yours will come and bow down before me and will say, “Please get out [of Egypt], you and all the Israeli people!”’ After that, I will leave Egypt!” [After Moses/I said that], he/I very angrily left the king.
9 Seyè a di Moyiz: -Farawon an p'ap koute ou. Konsa, m'a fè plis mèvèy toujou nan peyi Lejip.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The king will not pay any attention to what you say. The result will be that I will perform more plagues in the land of Egypt.”
10 Moyiz ak Arawon te fè tout mirak sa yo devan farawon an. Men farawon an pa t' vle kite moun pèp Izrayèl yo soti kite peyi a. Seyè a fè farawon an fè tèt di pi rèd toujou.
Aaron and Moses/I performed all these miracles in front of the king, but Yahweh made the king stubborn, and he did not let the Israeli people leave his country.
