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.
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, “This is what Adonai says, ‘Let my people go, that they may abad ·serve· me.
2 Men si ou refize kite yo ale, m ap frape tout teritwa ou a avèk krapo.
If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague 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 swarm with frogs, which shall 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 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.’”
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Tell Aaron [Light-bringer], ‘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 [Abode of slavery].’”
6 Konsa, Aaron te lonje men l sou dlo Égypte yo, e krapo te vin kouvri peyi Égypte la.
Aaron [Light-bringer] stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt [Abode of slavery]; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
7 Majisyen yo te fè menm bagay la avèk metye sekrè pa yo, e te fè krapo yo monte sou peyi Égypte la.
The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
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 [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer], and said, “Entreat Adonai, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Adonai.”
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.”
Moses [Drawn out] 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 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,
He said, “Tomorrow.” He said, “Be it according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh 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.”
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.
Moses [Drawn out] and Aaron [Light-bringer] went out from Pharaoh, and Moses [Drawn out] cried to Adonai concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 SENYÈ a te fè selon pawòl Moïse la. Krapo yo te mouri nan kay yo, nan lakou yo, ak nan chan yo.
Adonai did according to the word of Moses [Drawn out], and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Yo te fè gwo pil avèk yo, e peyi a te vin santi pouriti.
They gathered them together in 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 a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t sh'ma ·hear obey· them, as Adonai had spoken.
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.’”
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Tell Aaron [Light-bringer], ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].’”
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.
They did so; and Aaron [Light-bringer] 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 [Abode of slavery].
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.
The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
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 God’s finger:” and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t sh'ma ·hear obey· them; as Adonai had spoken.
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.’”
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what Adonai says, “Let my people go, that they may abad ·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 [people from Abode of slavery] shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon 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.
I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen [Drawing near], in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end you may know that I am Adonai on the earth.
23 Mwen va mete yon divizyon antre pèp Mwen an ak pèp pa w la. Demen sign sa a va parèt.”
I will put a division between my people and your people: by tomorrow 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.
Adonai did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses: and in all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 Farawon te rele Moïse avèk Aaron. Li te di: “Ale fè sakrifis a Bondye nou an pa anndan peyi a.”
Pharaoh called for Moses [Drawn out] and for Aaron [Light-bringer], and said, “Go, 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?
Moses [Drawn out] said, “It is not appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] to Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God]. Behold, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] before their eyes, and won’t they 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 Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God], as he has ordered us to do.”
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.”
Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Adonai your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray 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.”
Moses [Drawn out] said, “Behold, I go out from you, and I will pray to Adonai 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 Adonai.”
30 Alò, Moïse te sòti devan Farawon, e li te priye a SENYÈ a.
Moses [Drawn out] went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Adonai.
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.
Adonai did according to the word of Moses [Drawn out], 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.
Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.
