Egzòd 10
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Ale vè Farawon, paske Mwen te fè kè l di, ak kè a sèvitè li yo, pou Mwen kapab fè sign sa yo selon Mwen menm pami yo,
And Jehovah said to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs in the midst of them,
2 epi pou ou kapab rakonte nan zòrèy fis ou yo, ak fis a fis ou yo sa Mwen te fè Égypte, ak jan Mwen te fè sign Mwen yo pami yo, pou nou kapab konnen ke Mwen se SENYÈ a.”
and that thou may tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought upon Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them, that ye may know that I am Jehovah.
3 Moïse avèk Aaron te ale vè Farawon, e te di li: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a Ebre yo: ‘Jiska konbyen de tan ou va refize imilye ou devan Mwen? Kite pèp Mwen an ale, pou yo kapab sèvi Mwen.
And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, Thus says Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, How long will thou refuse to humble thyself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
4 “‘Oswa, si ou refize kite pèp Mwen an ale, gade byen, demen Mwen va mennen krikèt nan teritwa pa w la.
Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into thy border.
5 Yo va kouvri tout sifas latè pou pèsòn pa kab wè tè a. Yo va anplis manje rès nan sa ki te chape yo—sa ki te rete pou ou aprè lagrèl la—e yo va manje chak bwa ki vin boujonnen pou ou nan chan an.
And they shall cover the face of the earth, so that no man is able to see the ground. And they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
6 Konsa, kay nou yo va vin ranpli, kay a tout sèvitè nou yo, e kay a tout Ejipsyen yo, yon bagay ke ni papa nou yo, ni papa a papa nou yo pa t janm wè, depi jou ke yo te vini sou tè a, jiska jodi a.’” Konsa, li te vire kite Farawon.
And thy houses shall be filled, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither thy fathers nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth to this day. And he turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 Sèvitè Farawon yo te di li: “Pou konbyen de tan mesye sila a ap rete tankou yon pèlen pou nou? Kite mesye yo ale pou yo kapab sèvi SENYÈ Bondye a yo a. Èske ou pa wè ke Égypte gen tan fin detwi?”
And Pharaoh's servants said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God. Do thou not yet know that Egypt is destroyed?
8 Alò, yo te mennen Moïse avèk Aaron retounen vè Farawon. Li te di yo: “Ale sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a! Kilès nan nou k ap prale yo?”
And Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh. And he said to them, Go, serve Jehovah your God, but who are those who shall go?
9 Moïse te di: “Nou va ale avèk jenn nou yo, ak granmoun nou yo. Avèk fis nou yo ak fi nou yo, avèk bann mouton nou yo, ak twoupo nou yo. Nou va ale, paske nou oblije fè yon fèt pou onore SENYÈ a.”
And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go, for we must hold a feast to Jehovah.
10 Alò li te di yo: “Vrèman SENYÈ a avèk nou, si janmen ou wè mwen ta kite nou avèk pitit nou yo ale! Veye nou, paske se mechanste nou anvizaje nan tèt nou.
And he said to them, So be Jehovah with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones. Look, evil is before you.
11 Se pa konsa! Ale koulye a ak mesye ki pami nou yo, pou sèvi SENYÈ a, konsi se sa menm nou vle fè.” Konsa yo te chase yo ale kite prezans Farawon.
Not so. Go ye now who are men, and serve Jehovah, for that is what ye desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
12 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Lonje men ou sou peyi Égypte la pou krikèt yo, pou yo kapab vin monte sou peyi Égypte la, pou yo ka manje chak plan ki nan tè a, menm tout sa ke lagrèl la te kite yo.”
And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.
13 Alò, Moïse te lonje baton li sou peyi Égypte la, e SENYÈ a te dirije yon van lès sou latè pandan tout jounen an, ak tout nwit lan. Epi lè li te vin maten, van lès la te pote krikèt yo.
And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all the night, and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 Krikèt yo te vini sou tout latè an Égypte. Yo te vin rete nan tout teritwa Égypte la; yo te debòde l nèt. Pa t janm genyen fòs kantite krikèt egal a sa a, ni p ap janm genyen ankò.
And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt, very grievous were they, before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
15 Paske yo te kouvri sifas tout tè a, jiskaske latè te vin tounwa, epi yo te manje chak plant peyi a ak tout fwi nan bwa ke lagrèl te kite yo. Konsa, anyen vèt pa t rete nan bwa yo ni plant chan yo nan tout peyi Égypte la.
For they covered the face of the whole ground, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. And there remained not any green thing, either tree nor herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16 Alò, Farawon te fè vit pou rele Moïse avèk Aaron, e li te di: “Mwen te peche kont SENYÈ a Bondye nou an, e kont nou menm.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you.
17 Alò, pou sa, souple padone peche mwen yo sèlman pou fwa sa a, e fè lapriyè pou mwen bay SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, pou Li ta sèlman retire lanmò sa a sou mwen.”
Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat Jehovah your God, that he may only take away from me this death.
18 Li te sòti devan Farawon e li te fè lapriyè bay SENYÈ a.
And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated Jehovah.
19 Alò, SENYÈ a te fè van an chanje an yon van lwès byen fò ki te leve pran tout krikèt yo, e te voye yo nan Lamè Wouj. Menm yon sèl krikèt pa t rete nan tout teritwa Égypte la.
And Jehovah turned an exceedingly strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the border of Egypt.
20 Men SENYÈ a te fè kè Farawon an vin di, e li pa t kite fis Israël yo ale.
But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go.
21 Alò SENYÈ a te di Moïse: “Lonje men ou vè syèl la, pou kapab vin gen tenèb sou tout peyi Égypte la, menm yon tenèb tèlman lou ke yon moun ka santi l.”
And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
22 Alò Moïse te lonje men l vè syèl la, e te vin gen yon pwofon tenèb nan tout peyi Égypte la pandan twa jou.
And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days,
23 Yo pa t kapab wè youn lòt ni pèsòn pa t leve kite kote yo ye a pandan twa jou. Men tout fis Israël yo te gen limyè nan andwa pa yo a.
they did not see each other, neither did anyone rise from his place for three days, but all the sons of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24 Alò Farawon te rele Moïse. Li te di: “Ale, sèvi SENYÈ a, men kite bann mouton avèk twoupo yo dèyè. Menm pitit nou yo kapab ale avèk nou.”
And Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, Go ye, serve Jehovah, only let your flocks and your herds stay. Let your little ones also go with you.
25 Men Moïse te di: “Ou oblije osi kite nou fè sakrifis e brile ofrann, pou nou kapab fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
And Moses said, Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to Jehovah our God.
26 Pou sa, bèt nou yo tou ap prale avèk nou. Pa menm youn zago k ap rete dèyè, paske nou va pran kèk nan yo pou sèvi SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an. Epi jiskaske nou rive la, nou menm pa konnen avèk kilès nan yo nou oblije sèvi SENYÈ a.”
Our cattle shall also go with us, there shall not a hoof be left behind, for we must take of it to serve Jehovah our God, and we do not know with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come there.
27 Men SENYÈ a te fè kè a Farawon vin di, e li pa t dakò kite yo ale.
But Jehovah hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
28 Alò, Farawon te di li: “Sòti sou mwen! Veye ou pou pa wè figi m ankò, paske nan jou ou wè figi m ou va mouri.”
And Pharaoh said to him, Get thee from me. Take heed to thyself, see my face no more, for in the day thou see my face thou shall die.
29 Moïse te di: “Ou gen rezon; Mwen p ap janmen wè figi ou ankò!”
And Moses said, Thou have spoken well. I will see thy face again no more.
