Egzòd 9
1 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.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, —then shalt thou say unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of the Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Si ou derefize kite yo ale, si ou kenbe yo toujou, men sak pral rive:
But, if, refusing, thou art to let them go, —and still art holding them fast,
3 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.
lo! the hand of Yahweh, is coming on thy cattle which are in the field, on the horses, on the asses on the camels, on the herds and on the flocks, —a very grievous pestilence;
4 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.
and Yahweh will make a difference between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of the Egyptians, —so that there shall not die from among all that pertaineth to the sons of Israel, a thing!
5 Seyè a fikse jou pou l' fè bagay sa a. Li di se denmen l'ap fè sa nan tout peyi a.
And Yahweh appointed a set time—saying, To-morrow, will Yahweh do this thing, in the land.
6 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.
So Yahweh did this thing, on the morrow, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, —but of the cattle of the sons of Israel, died not one.
7 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.
And Pharaoh sent, and lo! there had not died of the cattle of Israel, so much as one. But Pharaoh’s heart became dull, and he did not let the people go.
8 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.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take you your hands full of the ashes of an oven, —and Moses shall scatter them towards the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh:
9 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.
then shall they become fine dust, over all the land of Egypt, —and shall become on man and on beast, a burning sore, breaking out in pustules in all the land of Egypt.
10 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.
So they took the ashes of an oven and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses scattered them towards the heavens, —and it came to pass that there was a burning sore in pustules breaking out, among men, and among beasts;
11 Ata majisyen yo pa t' kapab parèt devan Moyiz, paske yo te kouvri ak malenng tou tankou tout moun peyi Lejip yo.
and the sacred scribes could not stand before Moses, because of the burning sore, —for the burning sore had come on the sacred scribes, and on all the Egyptians.
12 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.
But Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh wax bold, and he hearkened not unto them, —as spake Yahweh unto Moses.
13 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.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Rise thou early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, —then shalt thou say unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of the Hebrews, Let my people go that they may serve me;
14 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.
for this time, am I, sending all my plagues unto thy heart, and amongst thy servants and amongst thy people, —to the intent thou mayest get to know, that there is none like me in all the earth.
15 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.
For now, might I have put forth my hand, and smitten thee and thy people with pestilence, —and thou shouldst have secretly disappeared from the earth;
16 Men, mwen kite nou viv pou nou kapab wè pouvwa mwen, pou moun ka nonmen non m' sou tout latè.
but, in very deed for this purpose, have I let thee remain, for the purpose of showing thee my might, —and that my name may be celebrated in all the earth.
17 Men w'ap pran pòz awogan ou avèk pèp mwen an, ou pa vle kite yo ale.
Even yet, art thou exalting thyself over my people—in not letting them go?
18 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.
Behold me! raining down, about this time to-morrow, an exceeding heavy hail, —such as hath not been in Egypt, from the day it was founded, even unto the present time.
19 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.
Now, therefore, send—bring into safety thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field, —as touching all men and beasts which shall be found in the field and shall not be withdrawn into shelter, the hail shall come down upon them and they shall die.
20 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.
He that feared the word of Yahweh, among the servants of Pharaoh, made his servants and his cattle flee, under shelter:
21 Men, gen lòt ki pa t' okipe sa Seyè a te di. Yo kite tout domestik yo ak tout bèt yo deyò.
but, whoso applied not his heart unto the word of Yahweh, left his servants and his cattle in the field.
22 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.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Stretch forth thy hand over the heavens, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, —on man and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.
23 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.
So Moses stretched forth his staff over the heavens, and, Yahweh, gave forth thunderings and hail, and there came fire towards the earth, —and Yahweh rained down hail, on the land of Egypt.
24 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.
So there came to be hail, and fire catching hold of itself, in the midst of the hail, —exceeding heavy, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt, from the very time it became a nation.
25 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.
And the hail smote in all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast, —and every herb of the field, did the hail smite, and every tree of the field, did it shiver.
26 Se sèl nan peyi Gochenn lan lagrèl la pa t' tonbe. Se la moun pèp Izrayèl yo te rete.
Only in the land of Goshen, where were the sons of Israel, was there no hail.
27 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.
Then sent Pharaoh, and called for Moses and for Aaron, and said unto them—I have sinned this time, —Yahweh, is the righteous one, and, I and my people, are the wrong-doers.
28 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.
Make ye request unto Yahweh, and it shall be enough without there being any more thunderings of God, and hail, —and I must a let you go, and not again shall ye delay.
29 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.
And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, will I spread out my hands unto Yahweh, —the thunderings, shall cease, and, the hail, shall come no more, —that thou mayest know, that to Yahweh, belongeth the earth.
30 Men mwen konnen ni ou menm, ni moun pa ou yo, nou poko ap respekte Seyè a, Bondye a.
But as touching thee and thy servants, I know that not yet will ye stand in awe of Yahweh Elohim.
31 Tout pye koton swa yo ak tout jaden lòj yo te boule. Lòj la te deja fè grap, koton yo t'ap fleri.
Now, the flax and the barley, were smitten, —for the barley, was in the ear, and, the flax, was in flower;
32 Men ble ak pitimi pa t' gate, paske yo toujou an reta sou lòt plant yo.
but the wheat and the spelt, were not smitten, —for they were, not ripe.
33 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.
So Moses went away from Pharaoh out of the city, and spread out his hands unto Yahweh, —then did the thunderings and the hail cease, and, rain, was not poured out on the earth.
34 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.
And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunderings had ceased, he again sinned, —and made his heart dull, he, and his servants.
35 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.
And the heart of Pharaoh waxed bold, and he did not let the sons of Israel go, —as spake Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
