Eksodosy 8
1 le nitsara amy Mosè t’Iehovà, Akia miheova mb’ amy Parò mb’eo vaho ano ty hoe ama’e, Hoe ty tsinara’ Iehovà: Ampiavoto ondatikoo, hitoroñe ahiko.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back to the king and tell him, ‘Yahweh says that you must let my people go, in order that they can worship me [in the desert].
2 Aa ie mitoky, tsy hampienga, le inao, ho tsitsifeko sahoñe o tane’oo.
But if you refuse to let them go, I will punish you by sending frogs to cover your country.
3 Hifamorohotse amy Nailey o sahoñeo. Hiakatse boak’ao hizilik’ añ’ anjomba’o ao naho an-traño firota’o ao naho am-pandrea’o ao naho añ’ anjomba’ o mpitoro’oo naho amo ondati’oo naho amo fanokona’oo vaho amo finga fitroboan-kobao.
[Not only] will the Nile [River] be full of frogs, [but] the frogs will come up [out of the river] into your palace. They will come into your bedroom and onto your bed. They will be in the houses of your officials and all [the rest of] your people. They will even get into your ovens and your pans for mixing the materials for baking bread.
4 Hanganik’ ama’o naho am’ondati’oo vaho amo mpitoro’oo o sahoñeo.
The frogs will jump up on you and your officials and [all the rest of] your people.’”
5 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Saontsio t’i Aharone, Ahitio ambone’ o torahañeo naho o talahao vaho o antarao ty fità’o rekets’ i kobai’oy hampiakatse o sahoñeo mb’an-tane Mitsraime mb’eo.
Yahweh [also] said to Moses/me, “Say this to Aaron: ‘Hold your stick in your hand and stretch it out [as though you were stretching it] over the river, the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up [from all this water and] cover the land of Egypt.’”
6 Aa le natora-kitsi’ i Aharone ambone’ o rano’ i Mitsraimeo ty fità’e vaho nitroatse mb’an-tamboho mb’eo o sahoñeo nanafotse ty tane Mitsraime.
[After Moses/I told that to] Aaron, he stretched out his hand [as though he were stretching it] over all the water in Egypt. And the frogs came up [from the water and] covered Egypt.
7 Fe tsinikombe’ o ambiasao amo sahà’ iareoo, le nañakatse sahoñe an-tane Mitsraime ka.
But the men who performed magic did the same thing, and they caused [more] frogs to come up [from the water onto the land].
8 Nikanjie’ i Parò t’i Mosè naho i Aharone le nanao ty hoe: Mihalalia am’Iehovà te hakareñe amako naho am’ ondatikoo o sahoñeo vaho hengako homb’eo ondatio hisoroñe am’ Iehovà.
Then the king summoned Moses/me and said, “Ask Yahweh to take away these frogs from me and my people. After that happens, I will allow your people to go, in order that they can offer sacrifices to Yahweh.”
9 Hoe ty Mosè amy Parò, Inao ty engeñe atoloko azo: Ombia ty hihalaliako ho azo naho o mpitoro’oo naho ondati’oo te hasoike ama’ areo vaho añ’ anjomba’ areo o sahoñeo, hampipoke iareo amy sàkay avao?
Moses/I said to the king, “I will be glad to pray for you and for your officials and for [the rest of] your people. [I will ask Yahweh] to get rid of the frogs from all your houses. The only frogs left will be [those] in the Nile [River]. Just tell me when I should pray.”
10 Le hoe re, Hamaray. Hoe t’i Mosè, Ie o sinaontsi’oo! Hahafohina’o te tsy amam-pañirinkiriñe aze t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay.
He replied, “Tomorrow.” So Moses/I said, “[I will do] what you say, and then you will know that Yahweh God, the one we [worship, is the only true god], and that there is no other god like him.
11 Ie misitak’azo naho o anjomba’oo naho o mpitoro’oo naho ondati’oo, le hidok’ amy sàkay avao.
The frogs will leave you and your officials and all [the rest of] your people. The only ones left will be in the Nile [River].”
12 Nienga i Parò amy zao t’i Mosè naho i Aharone vaho nikaike Iehovà t’i Mosè ty amo sahoñe nitsobore’ i Paròo.
Aaron and Moses/I left the king. Then Moses/I prayed to Yahweh, [asking him to take away] all the frogs he had [brought to the king’s land].
13 Le nanoe’ Iehovà i nihalalie’ i Mosèy, nimate añ’ anjomba ao o sahoñeo naho an-kiririsa ey naho an-tetek’ ao.
And Yahweh did just what Moses/I [asked him to do]. As a result, all the frogs in the houses, in their courtyards, and in the fields died.
14 Aa le natonto’ iareo an-kivotri-kivotry ampara’ te nitrotròtse i taney.
The people gathered together all the dead frogs into big piles, and the land stank [from the smell].
15 Aa naho nioni’ i Parò t’ie nikepake le nampientetse arofo, nihiritsiritse am’ iereo, amy nitsara’ Iehovày.
But when the king saw that [the problem] was ended, he became stubborn [IDM] [again]. And just as Yahweh had predicted, he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/we told him.
16 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Anò ty hoe amy Aharone, Ahitio o kobai’oo vaho paoho ty lembo’ o taneo, hanjaria’e boròm-pìhetse hanitsike ty tane’ i Mitsraime.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Tell Aaron to strike the ground with his stick. [When he does that], all the fine particles of ground/dust will become gnats, all over the land of Egypt.”
17 Nanoe’ iereo; nahiti’ i Aharone ty fità’e reke-kobaiñe vaho pinao’e ty debo’ i taney, le nirodañe am’ ondatio naho amo hàreo ty boròm-pìhetse, ze atao debok’ an-tane eo fonga ninjare boròm-pìhetse nanitsike ty tane Mitsraime.
So they/we did that. Aaron struck the ground with his stick, and all over Egypt, the fine particles of ground/dirt became gnats. The gnats covered the people and all [their] animals.
18 Nimanea’ o ambiasao ty hañakatse boròm-pìhetse amo sahà’ iareoo fe tsy nahalefe. Nipetak’ am’ondatio naho amo hareo o boròm-pìhetseo.
The men who worked magic tried to cause gnats to appear, but they were unable to do it. So the gnats [stayed] on the Egyptian people and on their animals.
19 Le hoe o ambiasao amy Parò, Rambom-pitàn’ Añahare toy! fe nihagàñe avao ty arofo’ i Parò le tsy nihaoña’e, izay ty nitsara’ Iehovà.
The men who worked magic said to the king, “It is God who has done this with his power [MTY]!” But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to us, just as Yahweh had predicted.
20 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Mañaleñaleña le mijohaña añatrefa’ i Parò, t’ie miavotse mb’an-drano mb’eo vaho ano ty hoe, Hoe ty tsinara’ Iehovà: Angao hiavotse mb’eo ondatikoo hitalaho amako.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Get up early [tomorrow] morning. [Go down] to the river and wait for the king. [When he comes to bathe] [MTY], say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh says to you: “Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert].
21 Aa hera tsy hengà’o homb’eo ondatikoo, le haropako ama’o ty laletse mifamorohotse naho amo mpitoro’oo naho am’ondati’oo naho añ’anjomba’ areo ao, le hifamorohotse añ’ anjomba’ o nte-Mitsraimeo o laletseo vaho an-tane ijohaña’ iareo.
[I warn you that] if you do not let my people go, I will send swarms of flies to you. They will come down on you and on your officials and on [the rest of] your people. The houses of all you Egyptians will be full of flies. They will [even] cover the ground.
22 Fe haviko amy andro zay ty tane Gosena imoneña’ ondatikoo, tsy hiropahan-daletse, hahafohina’o te añivo ty tane atoy iraho, Iehovà.
But when that happens, I will treat the Goshen region, where my people live, differently. There will be no swarms of flies there. In that way, you will know that I, Yahweh, am doing these things [here] in this land.
23 Eka, hampijadoñako jebañe añivo’ ondatikoo naho ondati’oo. Hipoteake maray i viloñe zay.
I will distinguish clearly between [how I act toward] my people and [how I act toward] your people. And this plague is going to happen tomorrow!”’”
24 Nanoe’ Iehovà, le havasiañan-dale-dero ty nifoak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Parò naho añ’ anjomba’ o mpitoro’e iabio; vaho hene nampiantoe’ i fifamorohotan-daletsey ty tane Mitsraime.
[Early the next morning, Moses/I told that to the king, but the king would not pay any attention]. So Yahweh did what he said he would do. He sent great swarms of flies into the palace of the king and into the houses of his officials. The whole country of Egypt was ruined by the flies.
25 Kinoi’ i Parò amy zao t’i Mosè naho i Aharone le nanao ty hoe, Akia, misoroña aman’ Añahare’ areo an-tane atoy.
Then the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You Israeli people can go and offer sacrifices to your god, [but you must do it] here in [this] land.”
26 Aa hoe t’i Mosè, Tsy mete t’ie hanoe’ay fa sirika amo nte-Mitsraimeo o fisoroña’ay am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’aio. Aa naho isoroña’ay am-pahaisaha’ o nte-Mitsraimeo ty raha tiva, tsy ho fetsahe’ iareo vato hao?
But Moses/I replied, “It would not be right [for us] to do that, because we will be offering sacrifices that are very offensive to the Egyptian people. If we offer sacrifices that the Egyptian people think are disgusting, they will kill us by throwing stones at us [RHQ]!
27 Hañavelo telo andro mb’ am-patrambey añe zahay, hisoroñe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, amy ze hitsarae’e ama’ay.
No, we need to travel for three days into the desert. There we will offer sacrifices to Yahweh, the God we worship, just as he commands (OR, has commanded) us.”
28 Aa le hoe t’i Parò, Hengako hiavotse mb’ am-patrambey ao nahareo hisoroñe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo naho tsy loho lavitse ty añaveloa’ areo. Mihalalia ho ahiko.
So the king said, “I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh, your god, in the desert. But you must not go very far. [Now] pray for me!”
29 Le hoe t’i Mosè, Vata’e mienga azo iraho le hihalaly am’ Iehovà te hasitake amy Parò naho amo mpitoro’eo vaho am’ondati’eo hamaray o laletse mifamorohotseo le asoao tsy ho fañahie’ i Parò avao, tsy hampienga’e hisoroñe am’ Iehovà ondatio.
Moses/I said, “Listen [to me]! After I leave you, I will pray to Yahweh, [asking] that tomorrow [he will cause] the swarms of flies to leave you and your officials and [the rest of] your people. But do not deceive us again by refusing to let our people go to offer sacrifices to Yahweh!”
30 Aa le nienga i Parò t’i Mosè vaho nihalaly am’ Iehovà.
Then Moses/I left the king and prayed to Yahweh.
31 Le nanoe’ Iehovà i nihalalie’ey: nafaha’e amy Parò naho amo mpitoro’eo naho am’ ondati’eo o laletse nifamorohotseo, leo raike tsy napoke.
And Yahweh did what Moses/I asked, and he got rid of the swarms of flies from [around] the king and his officials and [the rest of] his people. No flies remained.
32 Le mbe nampientere’ i Parò ty arofo’e henane zay, tsy nenga’e hiavotse ondatio.
But the king was stubborn [IDM] this time also, and he did not allow the Israeli people to go.
