Egzòd 9
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Ale bò kote Farawon e pale avèk li: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a Ebre yo: Kite pèp Mwen an ale, pou yo kapab sèvi Mwen.
Then the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh, and say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people, to sacrifice to me.
2 Paske si ou refize kite yo ale, e kontinye kenbe yo,
But if you still refuse, and you retain them,
3 gade byen, men Bondye va vini avèk yon epidemi byen sevè sou bèt ki nan chan ou yo, sou cheval yo, sou bourik yo, sou chamo yo, sou twoupo yo, ak sou bann mouton yo.
behold, my hand will be over your fields. And a very grievous pestilence will be upon the horses, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the oxen, and the sheep.
4 Men SENYÈ a va distenge antre bèt Israël yo avèk bèt Ejipsyen yo, pou okenn pa mouri nan sa ki pou fis Israël yo.’”
And the Lord will cause a miracle between the possessions of Israel and the possessions of the Egyptians, so that nothing at all will perish from those things which belong to the sons of Israel.”
5 SENYÈ a te etabli yon tan detèmine, e Li te di: “Demen SENYÈ a va fè bagay sa a nan peyi a.”
And the Lord appointed a time, saying: “Tomorrow, the Lord will accomplish this word in the land.”
6 Alò, SENYÈ a te fè bagay sa a nan jou ki te vini an, e tout bèt Égypte yo te mouri; men pou bèt fis Israël yo, pa gen youn ki te mouri.
Therefore, the Lord accomplished this word the next day. And all the animals of the Egyptians died. Yet truly, of the animals of the sons of Israel, nothing at all perished.
7 Farawon te voye, e gade byen, pa menm youn nan bèt Israël yo pa t mouri. Men kè Farawon te vin di, e li pa t kite pèp la ale.
And Pharaoh sent to see; neither was there anything dead of those things that Israel possessed. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not release the people.
8 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse avèk Aaron: “Pran kèk men plen avèk poud chabon ki sòti nan fou kanari yo, e kite Moïse voye li vè syèl la devan zye a Farawon.
And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron: “Take handfuls of ashes from the oven, and let Moses sprinkle it into the air, in the sight of Pharaoh.
9 Li va vin fè yon poud fen ki kouvri tout peyi Égypte la, e li va devni gwo bouton k ap pete tankou maleng ni sou moun ni sou bèt.”
And let there be dust upon all the land of Egypt. For there will be sores and swelling pustules on men and on beasts, throughout the entire land of Egypt.”
10 Alò yo te pran chabon ki sòti nan fou kanari yo, e yo te kanpe devan Farawon; epi Moïse te voye li vè syèl la, e li te devni gwo bouton k ap pete tankou maleng ni sou moun, ni sou bèt.
And they took ashes from the oven, and they stood in the sight of Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it in the air. And there came sores with swelling pustules on men and on beasts.
11 Majisyen yo pa t kab kanpe devan Moïse akoz bouton yo, paske bouton yo te sou majisyen yo menm jan ak tout Ejipsyen yo.
Neither could the sorcerers stand in the sight of Moses, because of the sores that were on them and on all the land of Egypt.
12 Men SENYÈ a te fè kè Farawon vin di, e li pa t koute yo, jan ke SENYÈ a te di a Moïse la.
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord said to Moses.
13 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Leve granmmaten e kanpe devan Farawon pou di li: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye a Ebre yo: Kite pèp Mwen an ale, pou yo kapab sèvi Mwen.
And the Lord said to Moses: “Rise up in the morning, and stand in the sight of Pharaoh, and you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people to sacrifice to me.
14 Paske fwa sa a, Mwen va voye tout fleyo Mwen yo sou kè ou, avèk sèvitè ou yo, avèk pèp ou a, pou ou kab konnen ke nanpwen lòt tankou Mwen sou tout latè.
For at this turn, I will send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants, and upon your people. So may you know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
15 “‘Paske si Mwen te deja lonje men M pou frape ou ak pèp ou a avèk epidemi, nou t ap deja disparèt sou latè.
For now, extending my hand, I shall strike you and your people with pestilence, and you will perish from the earth.
16 Men vrèman, pou rezon sa a, Mwen kite nou la jiska prezan: pou M kapab montre nou pouvwa Mwen e pwoklame pouvwa Mwen sou tout latè.
But it was for this reason that I appointed you, so that I may reveal my strength by you, and so that my name may be described throughout all the earth.
17 Malgre sa, ou toujou monte tèt ou kont pèp Mwen an, lè ou refize kite yo ale.
Do you still retain my people, and are you still unwilling to release them?
18 “‘Gade byen, vè lè sa a demen, Mwen va voye lagrèl byen gwo, tankou yo pa janm wè an Égypte depi lè li te fonde, jiska prezan.
So then, tomorrow, at this same hour, I will rain down exceedingly great hail, such as has not been in Egypt from the day that it was founded, even until this present time.
19 Alò, pou sa, mennen bèt nou yo avèk nenpòt sa nou gen nan chan an anba pwoteksyon. Chak moun oswa bèt ki twouve yo nan chan an, e ki pa mennen lakay yo, lè lagrèl la vin desann sou yo, yo va mouri.’”
Therefore, send immediately and gather together your cattle, and all that you have in the field. For men and beasts, and all things that will be found outside, not gathered in from the fields, and on which the hail will fall, shall die.’”
20 Sèman sila pami sèvitè Farawon yo ki te krent pawòl SENYÈ a te fè pwòp sèvitè li yo avèk bèt li yo sove ale nan kay yo.
He who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh caused his servants and cattle to flee together into the houses.
21 Men sila ki pa t okipe sa yo, te kite sèvitè li yo avèk bèt li yo nan chan an.
But he who neglected the word of the Lord released his servants and cattle into the fields.
22 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Lonje men ou vè syèl la, pou lagrèl kapab tonbe sou tout tè Égypte la, sou moun, sou bèt, e sou chak plan nan chan tout kote nan peyi Égypte la.”
And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky, so that there may be hail in the entire land of Egypt, on men, and on beasts, and on every plant of the field in the land of Egypt.”
23 Moïse te lonje baton li vè syèl la, e SENYÈ a te voye zeklè, loray avèklagrèl, avèk gwo kout dife ki te kouri rive jis atè. Konsa, SENYÈ a te fè lagrèl desann sou tout tè Égypte la.
And Moses extended his staff into the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and also lightning dashing across the earth. And the Lord rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
24 Alò te gen lagrèl, avèk dife ki te lanse, ki t ap vòltije tout tan nan mitan lagrèl la, byen sevè, jan peyi Égypte la pa t janm wè depi li te devni yon nasyon.
And the hail and intermingled fire drove on together. And it was of such magnitude as had never before been seen in the entire land of Egypt, from the time when that nation was formed.
25 Lagrèl la te frape tout sa ki te nan chan nan tout pati an Égypte, ni moun, ni bèt. Lagrèl la te frape osi chak plan nan chan an epi te chire an mòso chak bwa nan chan an.
And the hail struck, throughout all the land of Egypt, everything that was in the fields, from man even to beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field, and it broke every tree of the region.
26 Sèlman nan peyi Gosen an, kote fis Israël yo te ye a, pa t gen lagrèl la.
Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, did the hail not fall.
27 Alò, Farawon te voye kote Moïse avèk Aaron, e te di yo: “Mwen te peche fwa sa a. SENYÈ a se sila ki dwat la, epi mwen avèk pèp mwen an se nou ki mechan.
And Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron, saying to them: “I have sinned even until now. The Lord is just. I and my people are impious.
28 Fè lapriyè bay SENYÈ a, paske te gen kont tonnè avèk lagrèl. Mwen va kite nou ale, e nou p ap rete ankò.”
Pray to the Lord, so that the thundering of God and the hail may cease, so that I may release you, and so that you may by no means remain here any longer.”
29 Moïse te di li: “Depi mwen kite vil la, m ap ouvri men m bay SENYÈ a. Tonnè a va sispann, e p ap gen lagrèl ankò, pou ou kapab konnen ke tè a se pou SENYÈ a.
Moses said: “When I have departed from the city, I will extend my hands to the Lord, and the thunders will cease, and the hail will not be, so that you may know that the earth belongs to the Lord.
30 Men pou ou menm, avèk sèvitè ou yo, mwen konnen ke nou poko krent SENYÈ Bondye a.”
But I know that both you and your servants do not yet fear the Lord God.”
31 Alò pye koton swa yo avèk lòj la te gate, paske lòj la te fè gwo tèt, e koton swa a t ap boujonnen.
And so, the flax and the barley were damaged, because the barley was growing, and the flax was already developing grains.
32 Men ble a avèk pitimi a pa t gate paske yo te vin mi pita.
But the wheat and the spelt were not damaged, because they were late.
33 Alò, Moïse te kite vil la sòti devan Farawon, e li te lonje men li vè SENYÈ a; epi tonnè avèk lagrèl la te sispann, e lapli pa t tonbe sou latè ankò.
And Moses, departing from Pharaoh out of the city, reached out his hands toward the Lord. And the thunders and hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the land.
34 Men lè Farawon te wè ke lapli avèk tonnè a te sispann, li te peche ankò, e li te andisi kè l, li menm avèk sèvitè li yo.
Then Pharaoh, seeing that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders had ceased, added to his sin.
35 Kè Farawon te vin di, e li pa t kite fis Israël yo ale, jan SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse la.
And his heart was weighed down, along with that of his servants, and it was hardened exceedingly. Neither did he release the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses.
