< Exodus 11 >

1 et dixit Dominus ad Mosen adhuc una plaga tangam Pharaonem et Aegyptum et post haec dimittet vos et exire conpellet
The LORD said to Moses, “I will bring yet one more plague on Pharaoh, and on Egypt; afterwards he will let you go. When he lets you go, he will surely thrust you out altogether.
2 dices ergo omni plebi ut postulet vir ab amico suo et mulier a vicina sua vasa argentea et aurea
Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man ask of his neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.”
3 dabit autem Dominus gratiam populo coram Aegyptiis fuitque Moses vir magnus valde in terra Aegypti coram servis Pharao et omni populo
The LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants, and in the sight of the people.
4 et ait haec dicit Dominus media nocte egrediar in Aegyptum
Moses said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go out into the middle of Egypt,
5 et morietur omne primogenitum in terra Aegyptiorum a primogenito Pharaonis qui sedet in solio eius usque ad primogenitum ancillae quae est ad molam et omnia primogenita iumentorum
and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the mill, and all the firstborn of livestock.
6 eritque clamor magnus in universa terra Aegypti qualis nec ante fuit nec postea futurus est
There will be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, nor will be any more.
7 apud omnes autem filios Israhel non muttiet canis ab homine usque ad pecus ut sciatis quanto miraculo dividat Dominus Aegyptios et Israhel
But against any of the children of Israel a dog won’t even bark or move its tongue, against man or animal, that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between the Egyptians and Israel.
8 descendentque omnes servi tui isti ad me et adorabunt me dicentes egredere tu et omnis populus qui subiectus est tibi post haec egrediemur
All these servants of yours will come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, “Get out, with all the people who follow you;” and after that I will go out.’” He went out from Pharaoh in hot anger.
9 et exivit a Pharaone iratus nimis dixit autem Dominus ad Mosen non audiet vos Pharao ut multa signa fiant in terra Aegypti
The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh won’t listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”
10 Moses autem et Aaron fecerunt omnia ostenta quae scripta sunt coram Pharaone et induravit Dominus cor Pharaonis nec dimisit filios Israhel de terra sua
Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go out of his land.
