< Exodo 8 >
1 Kalpasanna, nakisao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Mapanka kenni Faraon ket ibagam kenkuana, 'Kinuna ni Yahweh daytoy: “Palubosam a pumanaw dagiti tattaok tapno makapagdayawda kaniak.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
2 No agkedkedka a mangpalubos kadakuada, parigatekto amin a pagiliam babaen kadagiti tukak.
But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs.
3 Mapunnonto kadagiti tukak ti karayan. Sumrek ken umulidanto iti balaymo, iti silidmo, ken iti pagiddaam. Mapandanto kadagiti balay dagiti adipenmo. Mapandanto kadagiti tattaom, kadagiti paglutoam, ken kadagiti pagmasaam.
The Nile will teem with frogs, and they will come into your palace and up to your bedroom and onto your bed, into the houses of your officials and your people, and into your ovens and kneading bowls.
4 Darupennakanto dagiti tukak, dagiti tattaom ken dagiti amin nga adipenmo."”'
The frogs will come up on you and your people and all your officials.’”
5 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Ibagam kenni Aaron, 'Iyunnatmo ta imam ken ta bastonmo kadagiti karayan, kadagiti waig, kadagiti lugnak, tapno sumang-at dagiti tukak nga agsaknap iti daga ti Egipto.'”
And the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers and canals and ponds, and cause the frogs to come up onto the land of Egypt.’”
6 Inyunnat ni Aaron ti imana kadagiti danum iti Egipto, ket simmang-at dagiti tukak a nangsaknap iti daga ti Egipto.
So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ngem inaramid dagiti salamangkero iti isu met laeng a banag: nangparuarda kadagiti tukak iti daga ti Egipto.
But the magicians did the same thing by their magic arts, and they also brought frogs up onto the land of Egypt.
8 Kalpasanna, pinaayaban ni Faraon da Moises ken Aaron ket kinunana, “Agkararagkayo kenni Yahweh nga ikkatenna dagiti tukak manipud kaniak ken kadagiti tattaok. Ket palubosakto dagiti tattao a mapan, tapno makaidatonda kenkuana.”
Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to the LORD to take the frogs away from me and my people. Then I will let your people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD.”
9 Kinuna ni Moises kenni Faraon, “Adda kenka ti gundaway a mangibaga kaniak no kaanoak a rumbeng nga agkararag para kenka, kadagiti adipenmo, ken kadagiti tattaom, tapno maikkat dagiti tukak kenka ken kadagiti balaymo ket agtalinaedda laeng iti karayan.”
Moses said to Pharaoh, “You may have the honor over me. When shall I pray for you and your officials and your people that the frogs (except for those in the Nile) may be taken away from you and your houses?”
10 Kinuna ni Faraon, “Inton bigat.” Kinuna ni Moises, “Maaramid ngarud dayta kas kinunam, tapno maamoam nga awan ti siasinoman a kas kenni Yahweh, a Diosmi.
“Tomorrow,” Pharaoh answered. “May it be as you say,” Moses replied, “so that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.
11 Pumanawto dagiti tukak kenka, kadagiti balaymo, kadagiti adipenmo, ken kadagiti tattaom. Agtalinaeddanto laeng iti karayan.”
The frogs will depart from you and your houses and your officials and your people; they will remain only in the Nile.”
12 Pinanawan da Moises ken Aaron ni Faraon. Kalpasanna, immawag ni Moises kenni Yahweh maipapan kadagiti tukak nga impanna kenni Faraon.
After Moses and Aaron had left Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the LORD for help with the frogs that He had brought against Pharaoh.
13 Inaramid ni Yahweh kas dinawat ni Moises: natay dagiti tukak kadagiti balay, paraangan ken kataltalonan.
And the LORD did as Moses requested, and the frogs in the houses, the courtyards, and the fields died.
14 Inummong dagiti tattao dagitoy a sangsangkamaysa kadagiti gabsuon, ket bimmangsit ti daga.
They were piled into countless heaps, and there was a terrible stench in the land.
15 Ngem idi makita ni Faraon a nasayaat manen ti kasasaadda, pinatangkenna ti pusona ken saan a dimngeg kada Moises ken Aaron, kas kinuna ni Yahweh nga aramidenna.
When Pharaoh saw that there was relief, however, he hardened his heart and would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.
16 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Ibagam kenni Aaron, 'Iyunnatmo ta bastonmo ket ablatam ti tapok iti daga, tapno agbalin daytoy a timel iti entero a daga ti Egipto.'”
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, that it may turn into swarms of gnats throughout the land of Egypt.’”
17 Inaramidda ngarud daytoy: Inyunnat ni Aaron ti imana ken ti bastonna. Inablatanna ti tapok iti daga. Kimpet dagiti timel kadagiti tattao ken kadagiti nauyong nga ayup. Nagbalin a timel dagiti amin a tapok iti entero a daga ti Egipto.
This they did, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, gnats came upon man and beast. All the dust of the earth turned into gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
18 Pinadas dagiti salamangkero babaen iti salamangkada a mangpataud kadagiti timel, ngem saanda nabaelan. Tinimel amin a tattao ken dagiti nauyong nga ayup.
The magicians tried to produce gnats using their magic arts, but they could not. And the gnats remained on man and beast.
19 Kalpasanna, kinuna dagiti salamangkero kenni Faraon, “Ramay ti Dios daytoy.” Ngem napatangken ti puso ni Faraon, isu a nagkedked isuna a dumngeg kadakuada. Kas ti kinuna ni Yahweh nga aramiden ni Faraon.
“This is the finger of God,” the magicians said to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
20 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Bumangonka a masapa inton bigat ket agtakderka iti sangoanan ni Faraon kabayatan a sumalsalog isuna iti karayan. Ibagam kenkuana, 'Kinuna ni Yahweh daytoy: Palubosam a mapan dagiti tattaok tapno makapagdayawda kaniak.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, and when Pharaoh goes out to the water, stand before him and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
21 Ngem no saanmo a palubosan dagiti tattaok, mangibaonnakto kadagiti pangen ti ngilaw kenka, kadagiti adipenmo, ken kadagiti tattaom, ken kadagiti balaymo. Mapunnonto kadagiti pangen ti ngilaw dagiti balay dagiti Egipcio, ken mapunnonto iti ngilaw uray ti daga a pagtaktakderanda.
But if you will not let My people go, I will send swarms of flies upon you and your officials and your people and your houses. The houses of the Egyptians and even the ground where they stand will be full of flies.
22 Ngem iti dayta nga aldaw tratoek iti naidumduma ti daga iti Gosen, ti daga a pagnanaedan dagiti tattaok, tapno awanto ti pangen ti ngilaw sadiay. Mapasamakto daytoy tapno maammoam a Siak ni Yahweh nga adda iti tengnga iti daytoy a daga.
But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where My people live; no swarms of flies will be found there. In this way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.
23 Mangaramidakto ti naggidiatan iti nagbaetan dagiti tattaok ken dagiti tattaom. Daytoy a pagilasinan ti pannakabalinko ket mapasamak inton bigat."”'
I will make a distinction between My people and your people. This sign will take place tomorrow.’”
24 Inaramid ngarud ni Yahweh, ket napuskol a pangen ti ngilaw ti napan iti balay ni Faraon ken kadagiti balay dagiti adipenna. Iti entero a daga ti Egipto, nadadael ti daga gapu kadagiti pangen dagiti ngilaw.
And the LORD did so. Thick swarms of flies poured into Pharaoh’s palace and into the houses of his officials. Throughout Egypt the land was ruined by swarms of flies.
25 Pinaayaban ni Faraon da Moises ken Aaron ket kinuna, “Mapankayo, agidatonkayo iti Diosyo iti bukodmi a daga.”
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God within this land.”
26 Kinuna ni Moises, “Saan a rumbeng nga aramidenmi dayta, ta dagiti daton nga aramidenmi para kenni Yahweh ket makarimon kadagiti Egipcio. No agidatonkami iti sangoananda iti makarimon kadagiti Egipcio, saandakami kadi a batoen?
But Moses replied, “It would not be right to do that, because the sacrifices we offer to the LORD our God would be detestable to the Egyptians. If we offer sacrifices that are detestable before the Egyptians, will they not stone us?
27 Saan, tallo nga aldaw a panagdaliasat iti let-ang ti masapul nga aramidenmi tapno agidaton kenni Yahweh a Diosmi, kas imbilinna kadakami.”
We must make a three-day journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the LORD our God as He commands us.”
28 Kinuna ni Faraon, “Palubosankayo a mapan ken agidaton kenni Yahweh a Diosyo idiay let-ang. Saankayo laeng nga umadayo unay. Ken ikararagandak.”
Pharaoh answered, “I will let you go and sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, but you must not go very far. Now pray for me.”
29 Kinuna ni Moises, “Apaman a rumuarak ditoy, Agkararagakto kenni Yahweh a panawannaka dagiti pangen dagiti ngilaw, sika Faraon, ken dagiti adipenmo ken tattaom inton bigat. Ngem masapul a saannakami manen nga allilawen babaen iti saanmo a panangpalubos kadagiti tattaomi a mapan agidaton kenni Yahweh.”
“As soon as I leave you,” Moses said, “I will pray to the LORD, so that tomorrow the swarms of flies will depart from Pharaoh and his officials and his people. But Pharaoh must not act deceitfully again by refusing to let the people go and sacrifice to the LORD.”
30 Rimmuar ni Moises iti ayan ni Faraon ket nagkararag kenni Yahweh.
Then Moses left Pharaoh and prayed to the LORD,
31 Inaramid ni Yahweh daytoy kas dinawat ni Moises: inikkatna dagiti pangen dagiti ngilaw manipud kenni Faraon, kadagiti adipenna, ken kadagiti tattaona. Awan ti uray maysa a nabati.
and the LORD did as Moses requested. He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh and his officials and his people; not one fly remained.
32 Ngem iti daytoy a tiempo pinatangken manen ni Faraon ti pusona, ket saanna a pinalubosan dagiti tattao a mapan.
But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time as well, and he would not let the people go.
