< Ọpụpụ 11 >
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis, “Aga m ewetara Fero na Ijipt otu ihe otiti ọzọ. Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ọ ga-ekwe ka unu si nʼebe a pụọ. Nʼeziokwu, ọ ga-eji aka ya chụpụ unu nʼala ya.
And the Lord said to Moses: “I will touch Pharaoh and Egypt with one more plague, and after these things he will release you, and he will compel you to go out.
2 Gwa nwoke na nwanyị Izrel ọbụla ka ha jikere. Ha rịọọ ndị agbataobi ha bụ ndị Ijipt, ka ha nye ha ihe ọbụla e ji ọlaọcha na ọlaedo kpụọ.”
Therefore, you will tell all the people to ask, a man of his friend, and a woman of her neighbor, for vessels of silver and of gold.
3 Onyenwe anyị mere ka ụmụ Izrel nweta ihuọma nʼebe ndị Ijipt, na ndị agbataobi ha nọ. Nke ka nke, Mosis ghọrọ onye a na-asọpụrụ nʼetiti ndị ozi Fero na nʼihu ndị Ijipt niile.
Then the Lord will grant favor to his people in the sight of the Egyptians.” And Moses was a very great man in the land of Egypt, in the sight of the servants of Pharaoh and of all the people.
4 Ya mere, Mosis sịrị, “Ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Nʼihe dịka nʼetiti abalị taa, aga m agafe nʼime ala Ijipt niile.
And he said: “Thus says the Lord: ‘In the middle of the night I will enter into Egypt.
5 Mgbe nke a na-eme, ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt ga-anwụ, site nʼọkpara Fero, onye nọ ugbu a nʼocheeze ya, ruo nʼọkpara ohu onye nwanyị na-akwọ ihe na nkume ịkwọ nri, na ụmụ ehi niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ.
And every firstborn in the land of the Egyptians shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the handmaid, who is at the millstone, and all the firstborn of the beasts of burden.
6 Mgbe nke a mere, iti mkpu akwa dị ukwuu ga-adị nʼala Ijipt, ụdị ga-ada nʼala Ijipt niile nke na-adịbeghị nʼala Ijipt, ụdị iti mkpu akwa nke na-agaghị adịkwa ọzọ.
And there will be a great outcry throughout the entire land of Egypt, such as has not been before, nor ever will be afterward.
7 Ma nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ, nkịta agaghị agbọ nwoke maọbụ nwanyị maọbụ anụmanụ ọbụla ụja.’ Site na nke a, ị ga-amata na Onyenwe anyị na-akpa oke nʼetiti ndị Izrel na ndị Ijipt.
But among all the sons of Israel there shall not be even a mutter from a dog, from man, even to cattle, so that you may know how miraculously the Lord divides the Egyptians from Israel.’
8 Ndị ọchịchị gị ndị a ga-abịa gbuo ikpere rịọọ m sị m, ‘Biko kpọrọ ndị gị pụọ nʼobodo anyị.’ Mgbe ha mesịrị nke a, aga m apụ.” Iwe were Mosis mgbe o si nʼụlọ Fero na-apụta.
And all these, your servants, shall descend to me and shall reverence me, by saying: ‘Depart, you and all the people who are subject to you.’ After these things, we will depart.”
9 Onyenwe anyị agwalarị Mosis sị ya, “Fero agaghị ege gị ntị. Nke a ga-enye m ohere ime ọtụtụ ihe ebube dị iche iche nʼIjipt.”
And he went out from Pharaoh exceedingly angry. Then the Lord said to Moses: “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that many signs may be accomplished in the land of Egypt.”
10 Ọ bụ ezie na Mosis na Erọn mere ihe ebube ndị a nʼihu Fero, ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka obi Fero sie ike, ka ọ hapụ ikwe ka ụmụ Izrel si nʼala ya pụọ.
Now Moses and Aaron did all the wonders that are written, in the sight of Pharaoh. And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; neither did he release the sons of Israel from his land.
