< Êxodo 7 >

1 Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Eis que te tenho posto por Deus sobre Pharaó, e Aarão, teu irmão, será o teu propheta.
The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
2 Tu fallarás tudo o que eu te mandar: e Aarão teu irmão fallará a Pharaó, que deixe ir os filhos de Israel da sua terra.
You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
3 Eu, porém, endurecerei o coração de Pharaó, e multiplicarei na terra do Egypto os meus signaes e as minhas maravilhas.
I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 Pharaó pois não vos ouvirá; e eu porei minha mão sobre o Egypto, e tirarei meus exercitos, meu povo, os filhos de Israel, da terra do Egypto, com grandes juizos.
But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 Então os egypcios saberão que eu sou o Senhor, quando estender a minha mão sobre o Egypto, e tirar os filhos de Israel do meio d'elles.
The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring the children of Israel out from among them.”
6 Então fez Moysés e Aarão; como o Senhor lhes ordenara, assim fizeram.
Moses and Aaron did so. As the LORD commanded them, so they did.
7 E Moysés era da edade de oitenta annos, e Aarão da edade de oitenta e tres annos, quando fallaram a Pharaó.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 E o Senhor fallou a Moysés e a Aarão, dizendo:
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
9 Quando Pharaó vos fallar, dizendo: Fazei por vós algum milagre; dirás a Aarão: Toma a tua vara, e lança-a diante de Pharaó; e se tornará em serpente.
“When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Perform a miracle!’ then you shall tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will become a serpent.’”
10 Então Moysés e Aarão entraram a Pharaó, e fizeram assim como o Senhor ordenara: e lançou Aarão a sua vara diante de Pharaó, e diante dos seus servos, e tornou-se em serpente.
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as the LORD had commanded. Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 E Pharaó tambem chamou os sabios e encantadores: e os magos do Egypto fizeram tambem o mesmo com os seus encantamentos,
Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.
12 Porque cada um lançou sua vara, e tornaram-se em serpentes: mas a vara de Aarão tragou as varas d'elles.
For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents; but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 Porém o coração de Pharaó se endureceu, e não os ouviu, como o Senhor tinha dito
Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
14 Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: O coração de Pharaó está aggravado: recusa deixar ir o povo.
The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.
15 Vae pela manhã a Pharaó: eis que elle sairá ás aguas: põe-te em frente d'elle na praia do rio, e tomarás em tua mão a vara que se tornou em cobra.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he is going out to the water. You shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. You shall take the rod which was turned to a serpent in your hand.
16 E lhe dirás: O Senhor, o Deus dos hebreos, me tem enviado a ti, dizendo: Deixa ir o meu povo, para que me sirva no deserto; porém eis que até agora não tens ouvido.
You shall tell him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness. Behold, until now you have not listened.”
17 Assim diz o Senhor: N'isto saberás que eu sou o Senhor: Eis que eu com esta vara, que tenho em minha mão, ferirei as aguas que estão no rio, e tornar-se-hão em sangue.
The LORD says, “In this you shall know that I am the LORD. Behold: I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18 E os peixes, que estão no rio, morrerão, e o rio federá; e os egypcios nausear-se-hão, bebendo a agua do rio
The fish that are in the river will die and the river will become foul. The Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the river.”’”
19 Disse mais o Senhor a Moysés: Dize a Aarão: Toma tu a vara, e estende a tua mão sobre as aguas do Egypto, sobre as suas correntes, sobre os seus rios, e sobre os seus tanques, e sobre todo o ajuntamento das suas aguas, para que se tornem em sangue: e haja sangue em toda a terra do Egypto, assim nos vasos de madeira como nos de pedra.
The LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood. There will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”
20 E Moysés e Aarão fizeram assim como o Senhor tinha mandado: e levantou a vara, e feriu as aguas que estavam no rio, diante dos olhos de Pharaó, e diante dos olhos de seus servos; e todas as aguas do rio se tornaram em sangue.
Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
21 E os peixes, que estavam no rio, morreram, e o rio fedeu, que os egypcios não podiam beber a agua do rio: e houve sangue por toda a terra do Egypto.
The fish that were in the river died. The river became foul. The Egyptians could not drink water from the river. The blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
22 Porém os magos do Egypto tambem fizeram o mesmo com os seus encantamentos; de maneira que o coração de Pharaó se endureceu, e não os ouviu, como o Senhor tinha dito
The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had spoken.
23 E virou-se Pharaó, e foi para sua casa: nem ainda n'isto poz seu coração.
Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and he did not even take this to heart.
24 E todos os egypcios cavaram poços junto ao rio, para beberem agua; porquanto não podiam beber das aguas do rio.
All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they could not drink the river water.
25 Assim se cumpriram sete dias, depois que o Senhor ferira o rio.
Seven days were fulfilled, after the LORD had struck the river.
