निर्गम 7
1 १ परमेश्वर मोशेला म्हणाला, “पाहा, मी तुला फारोच्या नजरेत देवासमान महान करतो; आणि तुझा भाऊ अहरोन हा तुझा संदेष्टा होईल;
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen [carefully]. [Just like I enabled prophet to speak my messages], I will cause the king [to consider that] you are like a god, and that Aaron is like a prophet.
2 २ ज्या आज्ञा मी तुला करीन त्या सर्व तू अहरोनाला सांग; मग तू इस्राएल लोकांस हा देश सोडून जाऊ दे, असे तू फारोला सांग.
You must tell everything I command you [to tell to your older] brother Aaron, and he will tell that to the king. He must tell the king to let the Israeli people leave his land.
3 ३ परंतु मी फारोचे मन कठोर करीन. मग मी मिसर देशामध्ये आपल्या सामर्थ्याची अनेक चिन्हे व अनेक आश्चर्ये दाखवीन.
But I will make the king stubborn [IDM]. As a result, even though I perform many kinds of (miracles/terrifying things) [DOU] [here] in Egypt,
4 ४ तरीही फारो तुमचे काही ऐकणार नाही. तेव्हा मग मी आपला हात मिसरावर चालवीन आणि त्यास जबर शिक्षा करून मी आपली सेना, माझे लोक, इस्राएल वंशज यांना मिसर देशातून काढून आणीन.
the king will not pay any attention to what you say. Then I will punish [MTY] the people of Egypt [MTY] very severely [MTY], and I will lead/bring the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
5 ५ आणि मिसरावर मी हात उगारून त्यांच्यातून इस्राएली लोकांस काढून आणीन, तेव्हा मिसऱ्यांना कळेल की मी परमेश्वर आहे.”
Then, when I show my great power [MTY] to the Egyptian people and bring the Israeli people out from among them, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh told them/us to do. They/We [went and spoke to the king].
At that time, Moses/I was 80 years old, and Aaron was 83 years old.
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
9 ९ “फारो तुम्हास एखादा चमत्कार दाखविण्याविषयी विचारील तेव्हा अहरोनाला आपली काठी फारोच्या देखत जमिनीवर टाकावयास सांग म्हणजे तिचा साप होईल.”
“If the king says to you, ‘Prove [that God sent] you by performing a miracle,’ then say to Aaron, ‘Throw your stick down in front of the king, in order that it may become a snake.’”
10 १० तेव्हा मोशे व अहरोन फारोकडे गेले आणि परमेश्वराने आज्ञा केल्याप्रमाणे त्यांनी केले. अहरोनाने आपली काठी फारो व त्याचे सेवक यांच्यापुढे टाकली आणि त्या काठीचा साप झाला.
So Aaron and Moses/I went to the king and did what Yahweh had commanded [them/us to do]. Aaron threw his stick down in front of the king and his officials, and it became a snake.
11 ११ तेव्हा फारो राजाने आपले जाणते व मांत्रिक बोलावले; मिसराच्या त्या जादूगारांनी आपल्या मंत्रतंत्राच्या जोरावर तसाच प्रकार केला.
Then the king summoned his sorcerers and men who performed magic. They did the same thing, using their magic.
12 १२ त्यांनीही आपल्या काठ्या जमिनीवर टाकल्या तेव्हा त्यांचेही साप झाले, परंतु अहरोनाच्या काठीने त्यांचे साप गिळून टाकले.
They all threw down their sticks, and they became snakes. But Aaron’s stick, [which had become a snake], swallowed up all their sticks!
13 १३ तरी परमेश्वराने सांगितल्याप्रमाणे फारोचे मन कठोर झाले आणि त्याने मोशे व अहरोन यांचे ऐकले नाही व इस्राएल लोकांस जाऊ दिले नाही.
But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], just as Yahweh had predicted, and he would not pay attention to [what Aaron and Moses/I said].
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The king is very stubborn [IDM]. He refuses to allow [my] people to go.
15 १५ उद्या सकाळी फारो नदीवर जाईल; तू साप झालेली काठी बरोबर घे आणि नदीच्या काठी त्यास भेटण्यास उभा राहा.
So [tomorrow] morning, go to him as he is going down to the [Nile] River [to bathe]. Wait for him at the riverbank. [When he comes out of the water, show] him the stick, the one which became a snake.
16 १६ त्यास असे सांग, ‘इब्र्यांचा देव परमेश्वर याने मला तुझ्याकडे पाठवले आहे व त्याच्या लोकांस त्याची उपासना करावयास रानात जाऊ दे, पण आतापर्यंत तू ऐकले नाहीस.
Say to him, ‘Yahweh God, the one [we] Hebrews [worship], sent me to you to tell you to let my people go, in order that they may worship him in the desert. [We told you that], but you have not paid any attention to it.
17 १७ परमेश्वर म्हणतो, की मी परमेश्वर आहे हे त्यास यावरुन कळेल: मी नदीच्या पाण्यावर माझ्या हातातील काठीने मारीन तेव्हा त्याचे रक्त होईल.
[So now] Yahweh says this: “This is the way you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do]. Watch this: I am going to strike the water that is in the Nile [River] with the stick that is in my hand. [When I do that], the water will become blood (OR, [red like] blood [MTY]).
Then the fish in the Nile [River] will die, and the [water in] the river will stink, and the Egyptians will not be able to drink water from the Nile River.”’”
19 १९ परमेश्वराने मोशेला म्हटले, तू अहरोनाला सांग की, आपली काठी घेऊन मिसर देशामधील नद्यांवर, नाल्यावर, त्यांच्या तलावावर व त्यांच्या सर्व पाण्याच्या तळ्यावर आपला हात उगार म्हणजे त्या सर्वांचे रक्त होईल, घरातील लाकडांच्या व दगडांच्या भांड्यात रक्तच रक्त होईल.”
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “[When you are talking to the king], say to Aaron, ‘Hold your stick out [as though you were holding it] over the water in Egypt—over the rivers, the canals, the ponds, and over the pools of water, in order that [all of it] may become [red like] blood.’ When Aaron does that, there will be blood throughout Egypt, even in wooden jars and in stone jars.”
20 २० तेव्हा मोशे व अहरोन यांनी परमेश्वराने सांगितल्याप्रमाणे केले. अहरोनाने आपली काठी उचलून फारोच्या व त्याच्या अधिकाऱ्यासमोर पाण्यावर मारली. तेव्हा नदीतल्या सर्व पाण्याचे रक्त झाले.
So Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. As the king and his officials were watching, Aaron lifted up his stick and then struck the water in the Nile [River] with it. And all the water in the river turned [red like] blood.
21 २१ नदीतले मासे मरण पावले व तिला घाण सुटली. त्यामुळे मिसरी लोकांस नदीतील पाणी पिववेना. अवघ्या मिसर देशात रक्तच रक्त झाले.
Then all the fish died. And the water stank, with the result that the Egyptians could not drink water from the river. Everywhere in Egypt [the water] became [red like] blood.
22 २२ तेव्हा मिसराच्या जादूगारांनी आपल्या मंत्रतंत्राच्या जोरावर तसेच केले. तेव्हा परमेश्वराने संगितल्याप्रमाणे फारोचे मन कठीण झाले.
But the men who performed magic did the same thing using their magic. So the king remained stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/I said, just as Yahweh had predicted.
The king turned and went back to his palace, and he did not think any more about it [IDM].
The Egyptians [HYP] dug [into the ground] near the Nile [River] to get water to drink, because they could not drink the water from the river.
(One week/Seven days) passed after Yahweh caused the water in the Nile [River to become red like blood].
