प्रस्थान 8

1 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “फारोकहाँ गएर त्यसलाई भन्, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः मेरो आराधना गर्नलाई मेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दे ।

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go in unto Pharaoh: and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;

2 तैँले तिनीहरूलाई जान दिन इन्कार गरिस् भने म तेरो सारा देशलाई भ्यागुताले सताउनेछु ।

and if thou art refusing to send away, lo, I am smiting all thy border with frogs;

3 नदी भ्यागुताहरूले भरिनेछ । तिनीहरू तेरो घर, सुत्‍ने कोठा र तेरो ओछ्यानमा आउनेछन् । तिनीहरू तेरा मानिसहरू, तेरा चुलाहरू र पिठो मुछ्ने आह्रीहरूमा आउनेछन् ।

and the River hath teemed [with] frogs, and they have gone up and gone into thy house, and into the inner-chamber of thy bed, and on thy couch, and into the house of thy servants, and among thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs;

4 भ्यागुताहरूले तँलाई, तेरा मानिसहरू र तेरा सबै अधिकारीलाई आक्रमण गर्नेछन्' ।”

yea, on thee, and on thy people, and on all thy servants do the frogs go up.'

5 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “हारूनलाई भन्, 'तपाईंको लट्ठी लिएर नदीहरू, खोलाहरू र तालहरूमा तपाईंको हात पसारी मिश्र देशमा भ्यागुताहरू ल्याउनुहोस्' ।”

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy hand, with thy rod, against the streams, against the rivers, and against the ponds, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.'

6 हारूनले मिश्रका पानीमा आफ्नो हात पसारे र भ्यागुताहरू आएर मिश्र देशलाई ढाके ।

And Aaron stretcheth out his hand against the waters of Egypt, and the frog cometh up, and covereth the land of Egypt;

7 तर जादुगरहरूले पनि त्यसै गरे । तिनीहरूले पनि मिश्र देशभरि भ्यागुताहरू ल्याए ।

and the scribes do so with their flashings, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.

8 तब फारोले मोशा र हारूनलाई बोलाउन पठाए र भने, “म र मेरा मानिसहरूबाट भ्यागुताहरू लैजाऊन् भनी परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती चढाओ । तब म उहाँलाई बलिदान चढाउन तेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दिनेछु ।”

And Pharaoh calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, 'Make supplication unto Jehovah, that he turn aside the frogs from me, and from my people, and I send the people away, and they sacrifice to Jehovah.'

9 मोशाले फारोलाई भने, “तपाईं, तपाईंका अधिकारीहरू र तपाईंका मानिसहरूका लागि मैले कहिले बिन्ती गर्ने भनी तपाईंले मलाई आज्ञा दिन सक्‍नुहुन्छ ताकि तपाईं र तपाईंका घरहरूबाट भ्यागुताहरूलाई हटाई ती नदीमा मात्र हुन सकून् ।”

And Moses saith to Pharaoh, 'Beautify thyself over me; when do I make supplication for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to cut off the frogs from thee and from thy houses — only in the River they do remain?'

10 फारोले भने, “भोलि ।” मोशाले भने, “तपाईंले भन्‍नुभएझैँ होस् अनि परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरजस्तै कोही रहेनछ भनी तपाईंले थाहा पाउनुभएको होस् ।

and he saith, 'To-morrow.' And he saith, According to thy word [it is], so that thou knowest that there is none like Jehovah our God,

11 भ्यागुताहरू तपाईं, तपाईंका घरहरू, तपाईंका अधिकारीहरू र तपाईंका मानिसहरूबाट जानेछन् । ती नदीमा मात्र बस्‍नेछन् ।”

and the frogs have turned aside from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; only in the River they do remain.'

12 मोशा र हारून फारोकहाँबाट गए । तब परमप्रभुले फारोकहाँ ल्याउनुभएका भ्यागुताहरूको बारेमा मोशाले उहाँलाई पुकारा गरे ।

And Moses — Aaron also — goeth out from Pharaoh, and Moses crieth unto Jehovah, concerning the matter of the frogs which He hath set on Pharaoh;

13 मोशाले बिन्ती गरेजस्तै परमप्रभुले गर्नुभयो अर्थात् भ्यागुताहरू घरहरू, चोकहरू र खेतहरूमा मरे ।

and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and the frogs die out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields,

14 मानिसहरूले तिनलाई जम्मा गरी थुप्रो लगाए र ती गन्हाउन लागे ।

and they heap them up together, and the land stinketh.

15 तर शान्त भएको देखेपछि परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएझैँ फारोले आफ्नो ह्रदय कठोर पारे अनि मोशा र हारूनको कुरा सुनेनन् ।

And Pharaoh seeth that there hath been a respite, and he hath hardened his heart, and hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.

16 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “हारूनलाई भन्, 'तपाईंको लट्ठी पसारेर जमिनको धुलोमा प्रहार गर्नुहोस् ताकि यो मिश्र देशभरि भुसुना बनोस्' ।”

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, and it hath become gnats in all the land of Egypt.'

17 तिनीहरूले त्यसै गरे । हारूनले लट्ठी लिएर आफ्नो हात पसारे । तिनले जमिनको धुलोमा प्रहार गरे । भुसुनाहरू मानिस र पशुहरूमा आए । सारा मिश्र देशभरि जमिनको धुलो भुसुनै-भुसुना भए ।

And they do so, and Aaron stretcheth out his hand with his rod, and smiteth the dust of the land, and the gnats are on man and on beast; all the dust of the land hath been gnats in all the land of Egypt.

18 जादुगरहरूले पनि तिनीहरूका जादुद्वारा भुसुनाहरू ल्याउन खोजे तर तिनीहरूले सकेनन् । मानिस र पशुहरूमा भुसुनाहरू थिए ।

And the scribes do so with their flashings, to bring out the gnats, and they have not been able, and the gnats are on man and on beast;

19 तब जादुगरहरूले फारोलाई भने, “यसमा परमेश्‍वरको हात छ ।” तर फारोको ह्रदय कठोर भयो र तिनले तिनीहरूका कुरा सुनेनन् । परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएझैँ भयो ।

and the scribes say unto Pharaoh, 'It [is] the finger of God;' and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.

20 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “बिहान सबेरै उठेर फारो नदीतिर जान लाग्दा त्यसको अगि खडा भएर भन्, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छः मलाई आराधना चढाउनलाई मेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दे ।

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, lo, he is going out to the waters, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;

21 तैँले मेरा मानिसहरूलाई जान दिइनस् भने म तँ, तेरा अधिकारीहरू, तेरा मानिसहरू र तेरा घरहरूमा हुलका हुल झिँगाहरू पठाउनेछु । मिश्रीहरूका घरहरू मात्र नभएर तिनीहरू खडा हुने जमिन पनि झिँगाहरूले भरिनेछन् ।

for, if thou art not sending My people away, lo, I am sending against thee, and against thy servants, and against thy people, and against thy houses, the beetle, and the houses of the Egyptians have been full of the beetle, and also the ground on which they are.

22 तर त्यस दिन म मेरा मानिसहरू बसिरहेका गोशेन प्रदेशलाई चाहिँ फरक तरिकाले व्यवहार गर्नेछु ताकि त्यहाँ झिँगाहरू नहोऊन् । यो देशमा म परमप्रभु हुँ भनी तैँले जानोस् भनी यसो हुनेछ ।

'And I have separated in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people are staying, that the beetle is not there, so that thou knowest that I [am] Jehovah in the midst of the land,

23 मेरा मानिसहरू र तेरा मानिसहरूका बिचमा म भिन्‍नता ल्याउनेछु । भोलि मेरो शक्तिको यो चिन्ह हुनेछ' ।”

and I have put a division between My people and thy people: to-morrow is this sign.'

24 परमप्रभुले त्यसै गर्नुभयो । फारोका घरहरू र तिनका अधिकारीहरूका घरहरूमा हुलका हुल झिँगाहरू आए । मिश्र देशभरि झिँगाहारूले देशलाई सखाप पारे ।

And Jehovah doth so, and the grievous beetle entereth the house of Pharaoh, and the house of his servants, and in all the land of Egypt the land is corrupted from the presence of the beetle.

25 फारोले मोशा र हारूनलाई बोलाउन पठाए र भने, “हाम्रो आफ्नै देशमा गएर तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई बलिदान चढाउन जाओ ।”

And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and to Aaron, and saith, 'Go, sacrifice to your God in the land;'

26 मोशाले भने, “हामीलाई त्यसो गर्न ठिक हुँदैन किनकि हामीले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरलाई चढाउने बलिदान मिश्रीहरूको भन्दा बेग्लै हुनेछ । हामीले मिश्रीहरूलाई घिनलाग्‍ने बलि तिनीहरूकै आँखाको सामुन्‍ने चढायौँ भने के तिनीहरूले हामीमाथि ढुङ्गा बर्साउँदैनन् र?

and Moses saith, 'Not right to do so, for the abomination of the Egyptians we do sacrifice to Jehovah our God; lo, we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes — and they do not stone us!

27 परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरले हामीलाई आज्ञा दिनुभएझैँ उहाँलाई बलिदान गर्न हामी तिन दिनको यात्रा गरी उजाड-स्थानमा जानैपर्छ ।”

A journey of three days we go into the wilderness, and have sacrificed to Jehovah our God, as He saith unto us.'

28 फारोले भने, “परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई उजाड-स्थानमा बलिदान चढाउन जान दिन म अनुमति दिनेछु । तिमीहरू धेरै टाढा भने जानुहुँदैन । मेरो लागि प्रार्थना चढाऊ ।”

And Pharaoh saith, 'I send you away, and ye have sacrificed to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only go not very far off; make ye supplication for me;'

29 मोशाले भने, “म यहाँबाट जानेबित्तिकै हजुर फारो र हजुरका अधिकारीहरूसाथै मानिसहरूबाट झिँगाका हुलहरू भोलि नै हटून् भनी बिन्ती गर्नेछु । तर परमप्रभुलाई बलिदान चढाउन जान नदिई हाम्रा मानिसहरूलाई तपाईंले छल गर्नुहुँदैन ।

and Moses saith, 'Lo, I am going out from thee, and have made supplication unto Jehovah, and the beetle hath turned aside from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people — to-morrow, only let not Pharaoh add to deceive — in not sending the people away to sacrifice to Jehovah.'

30 मोशा फारोकहाँबाट गए र परमप्रभुलाई बिन्ती चढाए ।

And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,

31 मोशाले अनुरोध गरेअनुसार परमप्रभुले गर्नुभयो, र उहाँले फारो, तिनका अधिकारीहरू र तिनका मानिसहरूबाट झिँगाका हुलहरूलाई हटाइदिनुभयो । एउटै पनि बाँकी रहेन ।

and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and turneth aside the beetle from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people — there hath not been left one;

32 तर फारोले यस पटक पनि आफ्नो ह्रदय कठोर पारे र तिनले मानिसहरूलाई जान दिएनन् ।

and Pharaoh hardeneth his heart also at this time, and hath not sent the people away.
