< Egzòd 8 >

1 Apre sa, Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Ale kote farawon an. W'a di l': Men sa Seyè a di: Kite pèp mwen an ale pou l' kapab fè sèvis pou mwen.
The LORD spoke to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Koute byen. Si ou derefize kite yo ale, mwen pral lage krapo sou tout peyi a pou pini ou.
If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs.
3 Gwo larivyè a pral plen krapo. Yo pral soti nan larivyè a, y'ap anvayi toupatou, y'ap antre lakay ou, anndan chanm ou, y'ap moute jouk nan kabann ou. Y'ap antre lakay moun pa ou yo, lakay tout pèp ou a, nan fou kote yo fè pen, nan ganmèl kote yo pare pat.
The river will swarm with frogs, which will go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs.
4 Y'ap vole sou ou, sou pèp ou a, sou tout moun pa ou yo.
The frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.”’”
5 Seyè a di Moyiz: -Di Arawon lonje men li avèk baton l' lan sou larivyè yo, sou kannal yo ak sou m'a dlo yo. Fè krapo moute kouvri peyi Lejip la.
The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’”
6 Arawon lonje men l' sou tout dlo nan peyi Lejip la. Epi krapo moute kouvri tout peyi a.
Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Men majisyen peyi Lejip yo, avèk maji yo, te rive fè menm bagay la tou. Yo fè krapo moute vin sou peyi Lejip la.
The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Farawon an rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Lapriyè Seyè a, mande l' pou l' chase krapo sa yo soti sou mwen ak sou pèp mwen an. Apre sa, m'a kite pèp ou a ale pou yo ka touye bèt y'ap ofri bay Seyè a.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Entreat the LORD, that he take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD.”
9 Lè sa a Moyiz di farawon an: -Se ou menm, farawon, ki konnen kilè ou vle pou m' lapriyè Seyè a pou ou, pou moun pa ou yo ansanm ak pèp ou a. Wi, se ou ki pou di m' kilè ou vle pou Seyè a wete krapo sa yo lakay ou ak nan kay pèp ou a, pou yo rete nan larivyè a ase.
Moses said to Pharaoh, “I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only.”
10 Farawon an reponn: -W'a fè sa denmen. Moyiz di li: -Sa va pase jan ou di l' la, pou ou sa konnen pa gen Bondye tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.
11 Krapo yo pral soti lakay ou, y'a wete kò yo sou ou, sou moun pa ou yo ak sou pèp ou a. Se nan gwo larivyè a ase va gen krapo.
The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 Moyiz ak Arawon soti lakay farawon an. Moyiz lapriyè Seyè a ak tout kè l' pou krapo li te voye sou farawon yo.
Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to the LORD concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Seyè a fè sa Moyiz te mande l' la: krapo yo mouri toupatou, nan kay, nan lakou, nan jaden.
The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Moun peyi Lejip yo ranmase yo fè gwo pil. Toupatou nan peyi a te santi move ak krapo mouri yo.
They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Lè farawon an wè yo te ba l' yon souf, li konmanse fè tèt di ankò. Li pa koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
16 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Di Arawon lonje baton l' lan, frape pousyè tè a. Pousyè a va tounen vèmin nan tout peyi Lejip la.
The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’”
17 Moyiz ak Arawon fè sa vre. Arawon lonje men li avèk baton an, li frape pousyè tè a. Pousyè a tounen vèmin sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt. Tout pousyè tè a tounen vèmin nan tout peyi Lejip la.
They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Majisyen yo vin ankò ak maji yo pou yo te fè menm bagay la tou. Men, fwa sa a, yo pa t' kapab. vèmin yo te sou tout moun ak sou tout bèt.
The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
19 Majisyen yo di farawon an: -Sa se travay Bondye. Men farawon an t'ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa t' vle koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger;” but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
20 Seyè a di Moyiz ankò: -Leve granmaten, ale jwenn farawon an lè li pral larivyè a. W'a di l': men sa Seyè a di: Kite pèp mwen an ale, pou yo ka fè sèvis pou mwen.
The LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Si ou pa kite pèp mwen an ale, mwen pral voye mouchavè sou ou, sou moun pa ou yo, sou tout pèp ou a ak nan tout kay yo. Mouchavè pral plen kay moun peyi Lejip yo, yo pral kouvri tout peyi a.
Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground they are on.
22 Men jou sa a, m'a fè yon bagay pou peyi Gochenn kote pèp mwen an rete a. p'ap gen yon mouchavè la. Konsa, w'a konnen se mwen menm, Seyè a, k'ap travay nan peyi a.
I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end you may know that I am the LORD on the earth.
23 m'a veye pou sa k'ap rive pèp ou a pa rive pèp mwen an. Se denmen mwen pral fè mèvèy sa a.
I will put a division between my people and your people. This sign shall happen by tomorrow.”’”
24 Seyè a fè sa vre jan l' te di l' la: yon kantite mouchavè desann sou kay farawon an, sou kay moun pa l' yo ak sou tout peyi a. Mouchavè t'ap devaste tout peyi Lejip la.
The LORD did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses. In all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Lè sa a, farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Nou mèt al ofri bèt pou touye pou Bondye nou an, men n'ap fè l' isit la nan peyi a.
Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!”
26 Moyiz reponn li: -Li p'ap bon pou nou fè l' konsa, paske moun peyi Lejip yo ka ofiske lè y'a wè ki kalite bèt nou touye pou ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Si nou ofri bagay sa yo devan moun peyi Lejip yo, y'a ka touye nou ak kout ròch.
Moses said, “It isn’t appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God. Behold, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, won’t they stone us?
27 Se pou nou mache twa jou nan dezè a. Se la n'a touye bèt n'ap ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, jan li te di nou an.
We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.”
28 Farawon an di li: -Bon! M'ap kite nou al touye bèt n'ap ofri bay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nan dezè a, men se pa pou nou al twò lwen. Lèfini, lapriyè pou mwen tou.
Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 Moyiz di l' konsa: -Kou m' soti isit la, mwen pral lapriyè Seyè a. Denmen mouchavè yo ap soti sou ou ansanm ak sou moun pa ou yo ak sou tout pèp la. Yo pral byen lwen. Men, piga ou twonpe nou ankò. Pa refize kite pèp la al ofri bèt pou yo touye bay Seyè a.
Moses said, “Behold, I am going out from you. I will pray to the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don’t let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.”
30 Moyiz soti lakay farawon an, l' al lapriyè Seyè a.
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
31 Seyè a fè sa Moyiz te mande l' la. Li fè mouchavè yo soti sou farawon an, sou tout moun pa l' yo ansanm ak sou tout pèp la. Li fè yo ale byen lwen. Pa yon mouchavè pa t' rete.
The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. There remained not one.
32 Men, menm jou sa a, farawon an fè tèt di ankò, li pa t' vle kite pèp la ale.
Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.
