< Egzòd 7 >

1 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Gade! Mwen pral fè ou tounen Bondye pou farawon an. Arawon, frè ou la, pral pale avè l' pou ou tankou yon pwofèt.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'See, I have given thee a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron thy brother is thy prophet;
2 W'a di Arawon tou sa mwen te ba ou lòd di. Li menm, l'a repete l' bay farawon an pou farawon an voye pitit Izrayèl yo pati kite peyi a.
thou — thou dost speak all that I command thee, and Aaron thy brother doth speak unto Pharaoh, and he hath sent the sons of Israel out of his land.
3 Mwen menm menm, m'ap fè farawon an fè tèt di. Konsa, m'a fè plis mirak ak plis mèvèy toujou nan peyi Lejip la.
'And I harden the heart of Pharaoh, and have multiplied My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt,
4 Farawon an p'ap koute nou. Lè sa a, m'a frape peyi Lejip la. m'a pini l' byen pini. m'a pran pitit Izrayèl yo, sòlda mwen yo, pèp mwen an, m'ap fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip.
and Pharaoh doth not hearken, and I have put My hand on Egypt, and have brought out My hosts, My people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt by great judgments;
5 Lè m'a frape peyi Lejip, lè m'a fè pitit Izrayèl yo soti nan mitan yo, moun peyi Lejip yo va konnen se mwen menm menm ki Seyè a vre.
and the Egyptians have known that I [am] Jehovah, in My stretching out My hand against Egypt; and I have brought out the sons of Israel from their midst.'
6 Moyiz ak Arawon te fè tou sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè. Wi, yo fè tou sa li te di yo fè a.
And Moses doth — Aaron also — as Jehovah commanded them; so have they done;
7 Moyiz te gen katrevenzan, Arawon te gen katreventwazan lè yo t al pale ak farawon an.
and Moses [is] a son of eighty years, and Aaron [is] a son of eighty and three years, in their speaking unto Pharaoh.
8 Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon konsa:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 -Si farawon an mande nou fè yon mirak pou moutre ki moun nou ye, ou menm Moyiz w'a di Arawon pran baton l' lan, voye l' atè devan farawon an. Baton an va tounen yon koulèv.
'When Pharaoh speaketh unto you, saying, Give for yourselves a wonder; then thou hast said unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast before Pharaoh — it becometh a monster.'
10 Moyiz ak Arawon al bò kote farawon an. Yo fè sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè a. Arawon voye baton l' lan devan farawon an ak devan tout moun farawon yo. Baton an tounen yon koulèv.
And Moses goeth in — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and they do so as Jehovah hath commanded; and Aaron casteth his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it becometh a monster.
11 Men farawon an rele nèg save l' yo ak divinò l' yo. Yo menm tou, avèk maji yo, yo te rive fè menm bagay la tou.
And Pharaoh also calleth for wise men, and for sorcerers; and the scribes of Egypt, they also, with their flashings, do so,
12 Yo voye baton pa yo atè, baton yo tounen koulèv tou. Men, baton Arawon an vale tout lòt baton yo.
and they cast down each his rod, and they become monsters, and the rod of Aaron swalloweth their rods;
13 Farawon an t'ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa t' vle koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
14 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Farawon an ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa vle kite pèp la ale.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'The heart of Pharaoh hath been hard, he hath refused to send the people away;
15 Ale bò kote farawon an denmen maten, lè li pral soti pou l' al bò gwo larivyè Nil la. Al tann li bò larivyè a. Baton ki te tounen koulèv la, w'a kenbe l' nan men ou.
go unto Pharaoh in the morning, lo, he is going out to the water, and thou hast stood to meet him by the edge of the River, and the rod which was turned to a serpent thou dost take in thy hand,
16 W'a di farawon an: Seyè a, Bondye ebre yo, te voye m' di ou konsa kite pèp li a ale pou yo ka fè yon sèvis pou li nan dezè a. Men, jouk koulye a ou pa vle koute l'.
and thou hast said unto him: Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Send My people away, and they serve Me in the wilderness; and lo, thou hast not hearkened hitherto.
17 Jòdi a, men sa Seyè a di: mwen pral fè ou konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Mwen pral frape dlo gwo larivyè a avèk baton ki nan men m' lan, dlo a pral tounen san.
'Thus said Jehovah: By this thou knowest that I [am] Jehovah; lo, I am smiting with the rod which [is] in my hand, on the waters which [are] in the River, and they have been turned to blood,
18 Tout pwason yo pral mouri, dlo a pral santi move, moun peyi Lejip yo p'ap ka bwè dlo ladan li ankò.
and the fish that [are] in the River die, and the River hath stank, and the Egyptians have been wearied of drinking waters from the River.'
19 Seyè a di Moyiz ankò: -Di Arawon pran baton l' lan, lonje l' sou tout dlo ki nan peyi Lejip la: larivyè, kannal, letan, m'a dlo, wi, sou tout dlo ki genyen. Dlo yo va tounen san. Konsa va gen san sou tout peyi a, menm nan ganmèl yo ak nan kannari yo.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand against the waters of Egypt, against their streams, against their rivers, and against their ponds, and against all their collections of waters; and they are blood — and there hath been blood in all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [those of] stone.'
20 Moyiz ak Arawon fè sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè a. Arawon leve baton l' lan, li frape dlo gwo larivyè a devan farawon an ak devan tout moun farawon yo. Tout dlo gwo larivyè a tounen san.
And Moses and Aaron do so, as Jehovah hath commanded, and he lifteth up [his hand] with the rod, and smiteth the waters which [are] in the River, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants, and all the waters which [are] in the River are turned to blood,
21 Tout pwason nan larivyè a mouri. Dlo a vin santi move. Moun peyi Lejip yo pa t' kapab pran dlo ladan l' pou yo bwè ankò. Te gen san toupatou nan peyi a.
and the fish which [is] in the River hath died, and the River stinketh, and the Egyptians have not been able to drink water from the River; and the blood is in all the land of Egypt.
22 Men, majisyen peyi Lejip yo te rive fè menm bagay la tou avèk maji yo. Farawon an menm t'ap fè tèt di pi rèd. Li pa koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
And the scribes of Egypt do so with their flashings, and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken,
23 Farawon an vire do ba yo, l' al lakay li tankou si anyen pa t' rive.
and Pharaoh turneth and goeth in unto his house, and hath not set his heart even to this;
24 Moun peyi Lejip yo pran fouye twou sou bò gwo larivyè a pou yo te ka jwenn dlo pròp pou yo bwè, paske yo pa t' kapab bwè dlo gwo larivyè a.
and all the Egyptians seek water round about the river to drink, for they have not been able to drink of the waters of the River.
25 Apre Seyè a te fin frape gwo larivyè a, li kite sèt jou pase.
And seven days are completed after Jehovah's smiting the River,
