Exodus 9
1 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Ingredere ad Pharaonem, et loquere ad eum: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Hebraeorum: Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi.
And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him, These things saith the Lord God of the Hebrews; Send my people away that they may serve me.
2 Quod si adhuc renuis, et retines eos:
If however thou wilt not send my people away, but yet detainest them:
3 ecce manus mea erit super agros tuos: et super equos, et asinos, et camelos, et oves, et boves, pestis valde gravis.
behold, the hand of the Lord shall be upon thy cattle in the fields, both on the horses, and on the asses, and on the camels and oxen and sheep, a very great mortality.
4 Et faciet Dominus mirabile inter possessiones Israel, et possessiones Aegyptiorum, ut nihil omnino pereat ex eis quae pertinent ad filios Israel.
And I will make a marvellous distinction in that time between the cattle of the Egyptians, and the cattle of the children of Israel: nothing shall die of all that is of the children's of Israel.
5 Constituitque Dominus tempus, dicens: Cras faciet Dominus verbum istud in terra.
And God fixed a limit, saying, To-morrow the Lord will do this thing on the land.
6 Fecit ergo Dominus verbum hoc altera die: mortuaque sunt omnia animantia Aegyptiorum: de animalibus vero filiorum Israel nihil omnino periit.
And the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one.
7 Et misit Pharao ad videndum: nec erat quidquam mortuum de his quae possidebat Israel. Ingravatumque est cor Pharaonis, et non dimisit populum.
And when Pharao saw, that of all the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one, the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
8 Et dixit Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron: Tollite plenas manus cineris de camino, et spargat illum Moyses in caelum coram Pharaone.
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, Take you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward heaven before Pharao, and before his servants.
9 Sitque pulvis super omnem Terram Aegypti: erunt enim in hominibus, et iumentis ulcera, et vesicae turgentes in universa terra Aegypti.
And let it become dust over all the land of Egypt, and there shall be upon men and upon beasts sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts, in all the land of Egypt.
10 Tuleruntque cinerem de camino, et steterunt coram Pharaone, et sparsit illum Moyses in caelum: factaque sunt ulcera vesicarum turgentium in hominibus, et iumentis:
So he took of the ashes of the furnace before Pharao, and Moses scattered it toward heaven, and it became sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts.
11 nec poterant malefici stare coram Moyse propter ulcera quae in illis erant, et in omni Terra Aegypti:
And the sorcerers could not stand before Moses because of the sores, for the sores were on the sorcerers, and in all the land of Egypt.
12 Induravitque Dominus cor Pharaonis, et non audivit eos, sicut locutus est Dominus ad Moysen.
And the Lord hardened Pharao's heart, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord appointed.
13 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Mane consurge, et sta coram Pharaone, et dices ad eum: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Hebraeorum: Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi.
And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao; and thou shalt say to him, These things saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, Send away my people that they may serve me.
14 Quia in hac vice mittam omnes plagas meas super cor tuum, et super servos tuos, et super populum tuum: ut scias quod non sit similis mei in omni terra.
For at this present time do I send forth all my plagues into thine heart, and the heart of thy servants and of thy people; that thou mayest know that there is not another such as I in all the earth.
15 Nunc enim extendens manum percutiam te, et populum tuum peste, peribisque de terra.
For now I will stretch forth my hand and smite thee and kill thy people, and thou shalt be consumed from off the earth.
16 Idcirco autem posui te, ut ostendam in te fortitudinem meam, et narretur nomen meum in omni terra.
And for this purpose hast thou been preserved, that I might display in thee my strength, and that my name might bepublished in all the earth.
17 Adhuc retines populum meum: et non vis dimittere eum?
Dost thou then yet exert thyself to hinder my people, so as not to let them go?
18 En pluam cras hac ipsa hora grandinem multam nimis, qualis non fuit in Aegypto a die qua fundata est, usque in praesens tempus.
Behold, to-morrow at this hour I will rain a very great hail, such as has not been in Egypt, from the time it was created until this day.
19 Mitte ergo iam nunc, et congrega iumenta tua, et omnia quae habes in agro: homines enim, et iumenta, et universa quae inventa fuerint foris, nec congregata de agris, cecideritque super ea grando, morientur.
Now then hasten to gather thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the fields; for all the men and cattle as many as shall be found in the fields, and shall not enter into a house, (but the hail shall fall upon them, ) shall die.
20 Qui timuit verbum Domini de servis Pharaonis, facit confugere servos suos, et iumenta in domos:
He of the servants of Pharao that feared the word of the Lord, gathered his cattle into the houses.
21 qui autem neglexit sermonem Domini, dimisit servos suos, et iumenta in agris.
And he that did not attend in his mind to the word of the Lord, left the cattle in the fields.
22 Et dixit Dominus ad Moysen: Extende manum tuam in caelum, ut fiat grando in universa Terra Aegypti super homines, et super iumenta, et super omnem herbam agri in Terra Aegypti.
And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out thine hand to heaven, and there shall be hail on all the land of Egypt, both on the men and on the cattle, and on all the herbage on the land.
23 Extenditque Moyses virgam in caelum, et Dominus dedit tonitrua, et grandinem, ac discurrentia fulgura super terram: pluitque Dominus grandinem super Terram Aegypti.
And Moses stretched forth his hand to heaven, and the Lord sent thunderings and hail; and the fire ran along upon the ground, and the Lord rained hail on all the land of Egypt.
24 Et grando et ignis mista pariter ferebantur: tantaeque fuit magnitudinis, quanta ante numquam apparuit in universa Terra Aegypti ex quo gens illa condita est.
So there was hail and flaming fire mingled with hail; and the hail was very great, such as was not in Egypt, from the time there was a nation upon it.
25 Et percussit grando in omni Terra Aegypti cuncta quae fuerunt in agris, ab homine usque ad iumentum: cunctamque herbam agri percussit grando, et omne lignum regionis confregit.
And the hail smote in all the land of Egypt both man and beast, and the hail smote all the grass in the field, and the hail broke in pieces all the trees in the field.
26 Tantum in Terra Gessen, ubi erant filii Israel, grando non cecidit.
Only in the land of Gesem where the children of Israel were, the hail was not.
27 Misitque Pharao, et vocavit Moysen et Aaron, dicens ad eos: Peccavi etiam nunc: Dominus iustus: et ego et populus meus, impii.
And Pharao sent and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time: the Lord [is] righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28 Orate Dominum ut desinant tonitrua Dei, et grando: ut dimittam vos, et nequaquam hic ultra maneatis.
Pray then for me to the Lord, and let him cause the thunderings of God to cease, and the hail and the fire, and I will send you forth and ye shall remain no longer.
29 Ait Moyses: Cum egressus fuero de urbe, extendam palmas meas ad Dominum, et cessabunt tonitrua, et grando non erit: ut scias quia Domini est terra:
And Moses said to him, When I shall have departed from the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord, and the thunderings shall cease, and the hail and the rain shall be no longer, that thou mayest know that the earth [is] the Lord's.
30 novi autem quod et tu, et servi tui necdum timeatis Dominum Deum.
But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye have not yet feared the Lord.
31 Linum ergo, et hordeum laesum est, eo quod hordeum esset virens, et linum iam folliculos germinaret:
And the flax and the barley were smitten, for the barley was advanced, and the flax was seeding.
32 triticum autem, et far non sunt laesa, quia serotina erant.
But the wheat and the rye were not smitten, for they were late.
33 Egressusque Moyses a Pharaone ex urbe, tetendit manus ad Dominum: et cessaverunt tonitrua et grando, nec ultra stillavit pluvia super terram.
And Moses went forth from Pharao out of the city, and stretched out his hands to the Lord, and the thunders ceased and the hail, and the rain did not drop on the earth.
34 Videns autem Pharao quod cessasset pluvia, et grando et tonitrua, auxit peccatum:
And when Pharao saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders ceased, he continued to sin; and [he] hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants.
35 et ingravatum est cor eius, et servorum illius, et induratum nimis: nec dimisit filios Israel, sicut praeceperat Dominus per manum Moysi.
And the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not send forth the children of Israel, as the Lord said to Moses.
