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, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Paske si ou refize kite yo ale, e kontinye kenbe yo,
For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,
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, the LORD’s hand is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.
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.’”
The LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children 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.”
The LORD appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing 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.
The LORD did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.
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.
Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn’t let the people go.
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.
The LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it towards the sky 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.”
It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal, throughout all the 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.
They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up towards the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal.
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.
The magicians couldn’t stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
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.
The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken 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.
The LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve 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 this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may 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 I would have stretched out my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off 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 indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth,
17 Malgre sa, ou toujou monte tèt ou kont pèp Mwen an, lè ou refize kite yo ale.
because you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won’t let them go.
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.
Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
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.’”
Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. The hail will come down on every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn’t brought home, and they will 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.
Those who feared the LORD’s word amongst the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
21 Men sila ki pa t okipe sa yo, te kite sèvitè li yo avèk bèt li yo nan chan an.
Whoever didn’t respect the LORD’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
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.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand towards the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout 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.
Moses stretched out his rod towards the heavens, and the LORD sent thunder and hail; and lightning flashed down to the earth. The LORD rained hail on 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.
So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
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.
The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
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 children of Israel were, there was no hail.
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.
Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
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; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no 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 to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunders shall cease, and there will not be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
30 Men pou ou menm, avèk sèvitè ou yo, mwen konnen ke nou poko krent SENYÈ Bondye a.”
But as for you and your servants, I know that you don’t 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.
The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley had ripened and the flax was blooming.
32 Men ble a avèk pitimi a pa t gate paske yo te vin mi pita.
But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.
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.
Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to the LORD; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.
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.
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
35 Kè Farawon te vin di, e li pa t kite fis Israël yo ale, jan SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse la.
The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go, just as the LORD had spoken through Moses.
