< Eksodosy 8 >

1 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Mankanesa ao amin’ i Farao, ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Alefaso ny oloko hanompo Ahy.
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Fa raha mandà ka tsy mandefa azy ianao, indro, Izaho hamely ny taninao rehetra amin’ ny sahona;
And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.
3 dia hisy sahona betsaka any Neily, ary hiakatra ireny ka hankao amin’ ny tranonao sy ny trano fandrianao sy eny ambonin’ ny farafaranao sy any amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanomponao sy amin’ ny vahoakanao ary eny amin’ ny fanendasa-mofonao sy eny amin’ ny vilia fanaova-mofonao.
And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs.
4 Dia ho aminao sy ny vahoakanao ary ny mpanomponao rehetra no hiakaran’ ny sahona.
And the frogs shall come up both upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
5 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Lazao amin’ i Arona hoe: Ahinjiro ny tananao mitana ny tehinao eny ambonin’ ny sampan-drano ary eny ambonin ny lahin-drano sy ny heniheny, ka mampiakara ny sahona ho eny amin’ ny tany Egypta.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy hand with thy rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
6 Ary nahinjitr’ i Arona tambonin’ ny rano tany Egypta ny tànany; dia niakatra ny sahona ka nandrakotra ny tany Egypta.
And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ary ny ombiasy mba nanao toy izany koa tamin’ ny fankatovany ka nampiakatra ny sahona ho eny amin’ ny tany Egypta.
And the magicians did in like manner with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
8 Ary Farao dia nampaka an’ i Mosesy sy Arona ka nanao hoe: Mangataha amin’ i Jehovah hampialany ny sahona amiko sy amin’ ny vahoakako; dia halefako ny olona mba hamono any zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat Jehovah, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people, and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah.
9 Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ i Farao: Aoka hiseho ny voninahitrao noho izay hataoko; rahoviana no hangatahako ho anao sy ny mpanomponao ary ny vahoakanao, hanesorana ny sahona aminao sy amin’ ny tranonao, ka ho ao Neily ihany no hisy azy?
And Moses said to Pharaoh, Have this honor over me: When shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?
10 Dia hoy izy: Rahampitso. Ary hoy kosa izy: Aoka àry dia ho araka ny teninao, mba hahafantaranao fa tsy misy tahaka an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray.
And he said, Tomorrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word, that thou may know that there is none like Jehovah our God.
11 Ary ny sahona dia hiala aminao sy amin’ ny tranonao sy ny mpanomponao ary ny vahoakanao, ka ho ao Neily ihany no hisy azy.
And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people, they shall remain in the river only.
12 Ary Mosesy sy Arona niala teo amin’ i Farao; ary Mosesy nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny sahona izay efa nataony tamin’ i Farao.
And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. And Moses cried to Jehovah concerning the frogs which he had brought upon Pharaoh.
13 Dia nataon’ i Jehovah araka ny tenin’ i Mosesy, ka maty ny sahona teny amin’ ny trano sy teny amin’ ny tokotany ary tany an-tsaha.
And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 Dia nangonina hivangongo teny rehetra eny ireny, ka efa maimbo ny tany.
And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Fa nony hitan’ i Farao fa nisy hiainana, dia nanamafy ny fony izy ka tsy mba nihaino azy mirahalahy, dia araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart, and did not hearken to them, as Jehovah had spoken.
16 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Lazao amin’ i Arona hoe; Ahinjiro ny tehinao, ka kapohy ny vovo-tany, dia ho tonga moka eran’ ny tany Egypta rehetra izany.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
17 Dia nanao toy izany izy, ka nahinjitr’ i Arona ny tànany mitana ny tehiny, ary nokapohiny ny vovo-tany, dia nisy moka teny amin’ ny olona sy teny amin’ ny biby fiompy: fa tonga moka avokoa ny vovo-tany rehetra eran’ ny tany Egypta rehetra.
And they did so. And Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth. And there were lice upon man, and upon beast; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Ary mba nanao toy izany koa ny ombiasy tamin’ ny fankatovany mba hahatonga moka, kanjo tsy nahay izy; ary ny moka dia teny amin’ ny olona sy teny amin’ ny biby fiompy.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not. And there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
19 Dia hoy ny ombiasy tamin’ i Farao: Rantsan-tànan’ Andriamanitra ity; nefa nihamafy ny fon’ i Farao, ka tsy nihaino azy mirahalahy izy, dia araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God. And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as Jehovah had spoken.
20 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Mifohaza maraina koa, ka mitsangàna eo anatrehan’ i Farao (fa, indro, hivoaka ho any amin’ ny rano izy), ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Alefaso ny oloko hanompo Ahy.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh. Lo, he comes forth to the water. And say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Fa raha tsy mandefa ny oloko ianao, indro Aho handefa lalitra betsaka hamely anao sy ny mpanomponao sy ny vahoakanao ary ny tranonao; dia ho feno lalitra ny tranon’ ny Egyptiana sy ny tany izay itoerany koa.
Else, if thou will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon they servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses. And the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they are.
22 Fa havahako amin’ izany andro izany ny tany Gosena, izay itoeran’ ny oloko, ka tsy mba hisy lalitra ao, mba hahafantaranao fa Izaho no Jehovah afovoan’ ny tany.
And in that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end thou may know that I am Jehovah in the midst of the earth.
23 Dia hasiako fiavahana amin’ ny oloko sy ny olonao; rahampitso no hisian’ izany famantarana izany.
And I will put a division between my people and thy people. This sign shall be by tomorrow.
24 Ary nataon’ i Jehovah izany; ka dia nisy lalitra be dia be tao amin’ ny tranon’ i Farao sy tao amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanompony ary teny amin’ ny tany Egypta rehetra; koa dia simba ny tany noho ny lalitra.
And Jehovah did so, and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses. And in all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.
25 Ary Farao nampaka an’ i Mosesy sy Arona ka nanao hoe: Mandehana ianareo hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ Andriamanitrareo eto amin’ ity tany ity.
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26 Fa hoy Mosesy: Tsy azo atao izany; fa izay fadin’ ny Egyptiana no hovonoinay hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray; koa, indro, raha izay fadin’ ny Egyptiana no vonoinay eo imasony hatao fanatitra, moa tsy hotorahany vato va izahay?
And Moses said, It is not right to do so, for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Jehovah our God. Lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 Handeha lalan-kateloana any an-efitra izahay, dia hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray, araka izay holazainy aminay.
We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God, as he shall command us.
28 Ary hoy Farao: Izaho dia handefa anareo ihany mba hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo any an-efitra; fa hany ataoko: aza mandeha lavitra loatra ianareo; dia mangataha ho ahy.
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only ye shall not go very far away. Entreat for me.
29 Ary hoy Mosesy: Indro, izaho hiala eto aminao ka hangataka amin’ i Jehovah mba hialan’ ny lalitra amin’ i Farao sy ny mpanompony ary ny vahoakany rahampitso; fa aoka kosa tsy hamitaka intsony Farao ka tsy handefa ny olona hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an i’ Jehovah.
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat Jehovah that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow. Only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Jehovah.
30 Ary Mosesy niala teo amin’ i Farao ka nangataka tamin’ i Jehovah
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated Jehovah.
31 Ary Jehovah dia nanao araka ny tenin’ i Mosesy ka nampiala ny lalitra betsaka tamin’ i Farao sy ny mpanompony ary ny vahoakany, ka tsy nisy niangana ireny na dia iray akory aza.
And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses, and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 Kanjo Farao nanamafy ny fony indray tamin’ izany ka tsy nandefa ny olona.
And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.
