Egzòd 8

1 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Ale kote Farawon e di li: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a: Kite pèp Mwen an ale pou yo kab sèvi Mwen.

And the LORD spoke to Moses, Go to Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

2 Men si ou refize kite yo ale, m ap frape tout teritwa ou a avèk krapo.

And if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your borders with frogs:

3 Nil lan va fòmante avèk krapo ki vin monte antre lakay ou, nan chanm dòmi ou, sou kabann ou, nan kay a sèvitè ou, sou pèp ou a, nan fou ou yo, ak nan veso pou fè pen yo.

And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedchamber, 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 Epi krapo yo va monte sou ou menm, avèk pèp ou a, avèk sèvitè ou yo.’”

And the frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.

5 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pale Aaron: ‘Lonje men ou avèk baton ou an sou rivyè yo, sou dlo k ap koule yo, sou ti lak yo, e fè krapo yo vin parèt sou peyi Égypte la.’”

And the LORD spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.

6 Konsa, Aaron te lonje men l sou dlo Égypte yo, e krapo te vin kouvri peyi Égypte la.

And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.

7 Majisyen yo te fè menm bagay la avèk metye sekrè pa yo, e te fè krapo yo monte sou peyi Égypte la.

And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.

8 Alò, Farawon te rele Moïse avèk Aaron e te di: “Soupliye SENYÈ a pou Li retire krapo yo sou mwen, ak pèp mwen an, epi mwen va kite pèp la ale pou yo kapab fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a.”

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice to the LORD.

9 Moïse te di a Farawon: “Desizyon an se pa w: fè m konnen kilè ou ta vle m soupliye pou ou avèk sèvitè ou yo, avèk pèp ou a ke krapo sa yo vin detwi pami nou, ak lakay nou, pou yo kapab vin rete sèlman nan larivyè Nil lan.”

And Moses said to Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I entreat for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, that they may remain in the river only?

10 Alò li te reponn: “Demen”. Moïse te di: “Selon mo pa w, pou ou kapab konnen ke nanpwen anyen ki tankou SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an,

And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to your word: that you may know that there is none like to the LORD our God.

11 Krapo yo va pati kite nou, lakay nou yo ak sèvitè nou yo, ak pèp nou an'. Yo va vin rete sèlman nan larivyè Nil lan.”

And 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 Konsa, Moïse avèk Aaron te sòti devan Farawon, e Moïse te kriye a SENYÈ a, konsènan krapo yo avèk sila li te aflije Farawon yo.

And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried to the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.

13 SENYÈ a te fè selon pawòl Moïse la. Krapo yo te mouri nan kay yo, nan lakou yo, ak nan chan yo.

And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.

14 Yo te fè gwo pil avèk yo, e peyi a te vin santi pouriti.

And they gathered them together on heaps: and the land stank.

15 Men lè Farawon te vin wè sa te rezoud, li te fè kè di, e li pa t koute yo, jan SENYÈ a te di a.

But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and listened not to them; as the LORD had said.

16 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Pale Aaron: ‘Lonje baton ou an e frape pousyè tè a, pou li kapab devni ti mouch fen nan tout vale an Égypte yo.’”

And the LORD said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch out your rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

17 Yo te fè sa; Aaron te lonje men l avèk baton li an, li te frape pousyè tè a, e te vin gen ti mouch fen sou moun, ak sou bèt yo. Tout pousyè tè a te devni ti mouch nan tout peyi Égypte la.

And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

18 Majisyen yo te eseye avèk metye maji pa yo pou pwodwi ti mouch fen yo, men yo pa t kapab. Te gen ti mouch yo ni sou moun, ni sou bèt.

And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice on man, and on beast.

19 Alò, majisyen yo te di a Farawon: “Sa se dwat Bondye.” Men kè Farawon te vin di, e li pa t koute yo, jan SENYÈ a te di a.

Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he listened not to them; as the LORD had said.

20 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Leve granmmaten, e prezante ou devan Farawon, pandan l ap sòti nan dlo a, e di li: ‘Se konsa ke SENYÈ a pale: Kite pèp Mwen an ale, pou yo kapab sèvi Mwen.’”

And the LORD said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; see, he comes forth to the water; and say to him, Thus says the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

21 “Paske si ou pa kite pèp Mwen an ale, gade byen, Mwen va voye desann gwo mouch sou sèvitè ou yo, sou pèp ou a, ak anndan lakay ou yo. Kay Ejipsyen yo va vin ranpli avèk desant mouch, ak sou tè kote yo ap viv la.

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: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground where on they are.

22 “Nan jou sa a, Mwen va mete apa peyi Gosen, kote pèp Mwen an ap viv la, pou desant mouch yo pa rive la, pou ou ka konnen ke Mwen, SENYÈ a sou latè a.

And I will sever 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 in the middle of the earth.

23 Mwen va mete yon divizyon antre pèp Mwen an ak pèp pa w la. Demen sign sa a va parèt.”

And I will put a division between my people and your people: to morrow shall this sign be.

24 Alò SENYÈ a te fè sa. Te vini gran desant gwo mouch nan kay Farawon an ak kay sèvitè pa li yo, e peyi a te vin devaste akoz desant gwo mouch yo nan tout peyi Égypte la.

And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.

25 Farawon te rele Moïse avèk Aaron. Li te di: “Ale fè sakrifis a Bondye nou an pa anndan peyi a.”

And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go you, sacrifice to your God in the land.

26 Men Moïse te di: “Li pa bon pou nou fè sa, paske nou va fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a ki se yon abominasyon pou Ejipsyen yo. Si nou fè sakrifis ki se yon abominasyon pou Ejipsyen yo, èske yo p ap lapide nou avèk kout wòch?

And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: see, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?

27 Nou dwe fè yon vwayaj twa jou nan dezè a, pou fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, jan Li kòmande 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 te di: “M ap kite nou ale, pou nou kapab fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a, Bondye pa w la nan dezè a; men nou p ap prale lwen. Priye pou Mwen.”

And 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: entreat for me.

29 Alò, Moïse te di: “Gade byen, Mwen ap sòti devan ou, mwen va priye a SENYÈ a pou desant mouch yo sòti sou Farawon, sou sèvitè li yo, ak sou pèp li a demen; men pinga kite Farawon aji an desepsyon ankò pou refize kite pèp la ale pou fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a.”

And Moses said, Behold, I go out from you, and I will entreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.

30 Alò, Moïse te sòti devan Farawon, e li te priye a SENYÈ a.

And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.

31 SENYÈ a te fè jan Moïse te mande a, Li te fè desant gwo mouch yo vin disparèt sou Farawon, sou sèvitè li yo, ak sou pèp li a. Pa t gen youn ki te rete.

And 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 Farawon te andisi kè l fwa sa a ankò, e li pa t kite pèp la ale.

And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
