1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Nakoyeisa lisusu etumbu moko na bomoi ya Faraon mpe ya Ejipito. Sima na yango, Faraon akotika bino ete bokende; kutu, akobengana bino libela.
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 Loba na bato ete basenga biloko ya palata mpe ya wolo: mobali nyonso asenga yango epai ya moninga na ye mobali mpe mwasi nyonso, epai ya moninga na ye mwasi. »
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 Yawe asalaki ete bana ya Isalaele bazwa ngolu na miso ya bato ya Ejipito. Mpe Moyize ye moko azalaki moto monene kati na Ejipito, na miso ya basali ya Faraon mpe ya bato nyonso.
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 Moyize alobaki na Faraon: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe alobi: ‹ Na kati-kati ya butu, nakotambola kati na mokili mobimba ya Ejipito.
Moses said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘About midnight I will go out into the middle of Egypt,
5 Mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso kati na Ejipito akokufa, kobanda na mwana mobali ya liboso ya Faraon oyo avandi na kiti ya bokonzi kino na mwana mobali ya liboso ya mwasi mowumbu oyo azali konika ble mpe bana mibali nyonso ya liboso ya bibwele.
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 Bongo koganga makasi ekozala na mokili mobimba ya Ejipito, koganga oyo ezala nanu te mpe ekotikala kozala te.
There will be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, nor will be any more.
7 Kasi kati na bana nyonso ya Isalaele, ezala mbwa ekoganga te liboso ya moto to ya nyama. › Na bongo, bokoyeba ete Yawe asali bokeseni kati na bato ya Ejipito mpe ya Isalaele.
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 Boye, bakalaka na yo nyonso oyo bazali zingazinga na yo bakoya epai na ngai, bakofukama liboso na ngai mpe bakoloba: ‹ Kende, yo mpe bato nyonso oyo bazali kotambola sima na yo. › Mpe sima na yango, nakobima. » Bongo Moyize abimaki na ndako ya Faraon na kanda makasi.
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 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Faraon akoboya koyokela bino mpo ete bikamwa na Ngai ekoka komonana ebele kati na Ejipito. »
The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh won’t listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”
10 Boye Moyize mpe Aron basalaki bikamwa wana nyonso liboso ya Faraon. Kasi Yawe akomisaki motema ya Faraon makasi mpe Faraon aboyaki kaka kotika bana ya Isalaele kobima na mokili na ye.
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.
