Eksodosy 7
1 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Indro, efa nataoko andriamanitra ho an’ i Farao ianao; ary Arona rahalahinao kosa ho mpaminaninao.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, I have made you a god to Pharao, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
2 Hianao hilaza izay rehetra nandidiako anao, ary Arona rahalahinao kosa hilaza amin’ i Farao, mba handefasany ny Zanak’ Isiraely hiala amin’ ny taniny,
And you shall say to him all things that I charge you, and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharao, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of his land.
3 Ary Izaho hanamafy ny fon’ i Farao sy hanamaro ny famantarana sy ny fahagagana izay hataoko eto amin’ ny tany Egypta.
And I will harden the heart of Pharao, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 Fa tsy hihaino anareo Farao, ka dia hamely an’ i Egypta ny tanako, ary fitsarana lehibe no hitondrako ny antokon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely oloko hiala amin’ ny tany Egypta.
And Pharao will not listen to you, and I will lay my hand upon Egypt; and will bring out my people the children of Israel with my power out of the land of Egypt with great vengeance.
5 Dia ho fantatry ny Egyptiana fa Izaho no Jehovah, rehefa maninjitra ny tanako amin’ i Egypta Aho ka mitondra ny Zanak’ Isiraely hivoaka avy any.
And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, stretching out my hand upon Egypt, and I will bring out the children of Israel out of the midst of them.
6 Dia nataon’ i Mosesy sy Arona izany: araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah azy no nataony.
And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
7 Ary efa valo-polo taona Mosesy, ary efa telo amby valo-polo taona kosa Arona, raha niteny tamin’ i Farao izy mirahalahy.
And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron his brother was eighty-three years old, when he spoke to Pharao.
8 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy sy Arona:
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
9 Raha miteny aminareo Farao ka manao hoe: Manaova fahagagana hanambara anareo, dia lazao amin’ i Arona hoe: Raiso ny tehinao, ka atsipazo eo anatrehan’ i Farao, dia ho tonga menarana iny.
Now if Pharao should speak to you, saying, Give us a sign or a wonder, then shall you say to your brother Aaron, Take your rod and cast it upon the ground before Pharao, and before his servants, and it shall become a serpent.
10 Ary Mosesy sy Arona nankao amin’ i Farao ka nanao araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah; dia natsipin’ i Arona teo anatrehan’ i Farao sy teo anatrehan’ ny mpanompony ny tehiny, ka tonga menarana iny.
And Moses and Aaron went in before Pharao, and [before] his servants, and they did so, as the Lord commanded them; and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharao, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Dia nampanalain’ i Farao ny olon-kendry sy ny mpanana ody; ary ireo ombiasy teo Egypta ireo dia nanao toy izany tamin’ ny fankatovany.
But Pharao called together the wise men of Egypt, and the sorcerers, and the charmers also of the Egyptians did likewise with their sorceries.
12 Fa samy nanipy ny tehiny avy izy ireo, ka tonga menarana ireny; nefa ny tehin’ i Arona nitelina ny tehin’ ireo.
And they cast down each his rod, and they became serpents, but the rod of Aaron swallowed up their rods.
13 Dia nihamafy ny fon’ i Farao, ka tsy nihaino azy mirahalahy izy, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah.
and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he listened not to them, as the Lord charged them.
14 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Efa mafy ny fon’ i Farao, ka mandà tsy handefa ny olona izy.
and the Lord said to Moses, The heart of Pharao is made hard, so that he should not let the people go.
15 Mankanesa ao aminy ianao rahampitso; indro, hivoaka ho any amin’ ny rano izy; dia mijanona eo amoron’ i Neily ianao ambara-pihaviny (ary ny tehina, ilay novàna ho menarana, ho entinao eny an-tananao),
Go to Pharao early in the morning: behold, he goes forth to the water; and you shall meet him on the bank of the river, and you shall take in your hand the rod that was turned into a serpent.
16 dia lazao aminy hoe: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Hebreo, no naniraka ahy nankaty aminao hanao hoe: Alefaso ny oloko mba hanompoany Ahy any an-efitra; fa, indro, tsy nihaino ianao mandraka ankehitriny.
And you shall say to him, The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, Send my people away, that they may serve me in the wilderness, and, behold, hitherto you have not listened.
17 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Izao no hahafantaranao fa Izaho no Jehovah: indro, ny tehiko etỳ an-tanako no hikapohako ny rano ao Neily, ka ho tonga rà izy.
These things says the Lord: Hereby shall you know that I am the Lord: behold, I strike with the rod that is in my hand on the water which is in the river, and it shall change it into blood.
18 Dia ho faty ny hazandrano ao Neily, ka ho maimbo Neily, ary tsy ho tian’ ny Egyptiana intsony ny hisotro ny rano ao.
And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall stink thereupon, and the Egyptians shall not be able to drink water from the river.
19 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Lazao amin’ i Arona hoe: Raiso ny tehinao, ka ahinjiro ambonin’ ny ranon’ i Egypta ny tananao, dia ambonin’ ny sampan-dranony sy ambonin’ ny lahin-dranony, sy ambonin’ ny heniheniny, ary ambonin’ ny kamoriny rehetra, mba ho tonga rà ireny; ary hisy rà eran’ ny tany Egypta rehetra, na amin’ ny fitoeran-drano hazo na amin’ ny fitoeran-drano vato.
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to your brother Aaron, Take your rod in your hand, and stretch forth your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers, and over their canals, and over their ponds, and over all their standing water, and it shall become blood: and there was blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and of stone.
20 Ary nataon’ i Mosesy sy Arona izany, araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah; dia nanainga ny tehina izy ka namely ny rano tao Neily teo imason’ i Farao sy teo imason’ ny mpanompony, dia tonga rà ny rano rehetra tao Neily;
and Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded them; and [Aaron] having lifted up [his hand] with his rod, struck the water in the river before Pharao, and before his servants, and changed all the water in the river into blood.
21 koa maty ny hazandrano izay tao Neily, dia maimbo Neily, ka tsy azon’ ny Egyptiana nosotroina ny rano avy ao; ary ny rà dia nanerana ny tany Egypta rehetra.
And the fish in the river died, and the river stank thereupon; and the Egyptians could not drink water from the river, and the blood was in all the land of Egypt.
22 Ary ny ombiasy teo Egypta, dia mba nanao toy izany koa tamin’ ny fankatovany; ka dia nihamafy ny fon’ i Farao, ka tsy nihaino azy mirahalahy izy, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah.
And the charmers also of the Egyptians did so with their sorceries; and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not listen to them, even as the Lord said.
23 Dia niverina Farao ka nankao an-tranony, kanefa tsy mba nahoany akory, na dia izany aza.
And Pharao turned and entered into his house, nor did he fix his attention even on this thing.
24 Dia nihady rano hosotroiny teo amoron’ i Neily ny Egyptiana rehetra; fa tsy azony nisotroana ny rano tao Neily.
And all the Egyptians dug round about the river, so as to drink water, for they could not drink water from the river.
25 Ary nisy hafitoana taorian’ ny namelezan’ i Jehovah an’ i Neily.
and seven days were fulfilled after the Lord has struck the river.
