< Exodus 10 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Farao, mo ti ṣé àyà Farao le àti àyà àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, kí èmi kí o ba le ṣe àwọn iṣẹ́ ìyanu mi láàrín wọn.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his servants. I have done this to show these signs of my power among them.
2 Kí ẹ̀yin ki ó le sọ fún àwọn ọmọ yín àti àwọn ọmọ ọmọ yín; bí mo ti jẹ àwọn ará Ejibiti ní yà àti bí mo ti ṣe àwọn iṣẹ́ ìyanu láàrín wọn. Kí ìwọ ba á le mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa.”
I have also done this so that you may tell your children and grandchildren the things I have done, how I have harshly treated Egypt, and how I have given various signs of my power among them. In this way you will know that I am Yahweh.”
3 Nígbà náà ni Mose àti Aaroni tọ Farao lọ, tiwọn sí wí fún un pé, “Èyí ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run àwọn Heberu sọ, ‘Yóò ti pẹ́ to ti ìwọ yóò kọ̀ láti tẹrí ara rẹ ba ní iwájú mi? Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn kí ó sìn mi.
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says this: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go so that they may worship me.
4 Bí ìwọ bá kọ̀ láti jẹ́ kí wọn lọ, èmi yóò mú eṣú wa sí orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ ní ọ̀la.
But if you refuse to let my people go, listen, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your land.
5 Wọn yóò bo gbogbo ilẹ̀. Wọn yóò ba ohun gbogbo tí ó kù fún ọ lẹ́yìn òjò yìnyín jẹ́, tí ó fi dórí gbogbo igi tí ó ń dàgbà ni ilẹ̀ rẹ.
They will cover the surface of the ground so that no one will be able to see the earth. They will eat the remains of whatever escaped from the hail. They will also eat every tree that grows for you in the fields.
6 Wọn yóò kún gbogbo ilé rẹ àti ilé àwọn ìjòyè rẹ àti ilé gbogbo àwọn ará Ejibiti. Ohun ti baba rẹ tàbí baba baba rẹ kò tí ì rí láti ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wà ní ilẹ̀ náà títí di àkókò yìí.’” Nígbà náà ni Mose pẹ̀yìndà kúrò níwájú Farao.
They will fill your houses, those of all your servants, and those of all the Egyptians—something neither your father nor your grandfather ever saw, nothing ever seen since the day that they were on the earth to this present day.'” Then Moses left and went out from Pharaoh.
7 Àwọn ìjòyè Farao sọ fún un, “Yóò ti pẹ́ to tí ọkùnrin yìí yóò máa jẹ́ ìkẹ́kùn fún wa? Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn yìí lọ, kí wọn kí ó le sìn Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn. Ṣe ìwọ kò ṣe àkíyèsí síbẹ̀ pé, ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ti parun tán?”
Pharaoh's servants said to him, “How long will this man be a menace to us? Let the Israelites go so that they may worship Yahweh their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt is destroyed?”
8 Nígbà náà ni a mú Aaroni àti Mose padà wá sí iwájú Farao ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ sìn Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín. Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ta ni nínú yín ni yóò ha lọ.”
Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, who said to them, “Go worship Yahweh your God. But what people will go?”
9 Mose dáhùn ó wí pé, “A ó lọ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọdé àti àgbà wa, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ wa ọkùnrin àti ọmọ wa obìnrin pẹ̀lú agbo àgùntàn wa àti agbo màlúù wa nítorí pé a gbọdọ̀ ṣe àjọ fún Olúwa.”
Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and our daughters. We will go with our flocks and herds, for we must hold a festival for Yahweh.”
10 Farao sì wí pé, “Mo fi Olúwa búra pé èmi kí yóò jẹ́ kí ẹ lọ, pẹ̀lú àwọn obìnrin yín àti àwọn ọmọ wẹ́wẹ́, dájúdájú èrò ibi ní ń bẹ nínú yín.
Pharaoh said to them, “May Yahweh indeed be with you, if I ever let you go and your little ones go. Look, you have some evil in mind.
11 Rárá! Ọkùnrin yín nìkan ni kí ó lọ, láti lọ sin Olúwa, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó jẹ́ pé èyí ni ẹ̀yin ń béèrè fún.” Wọ́n sì lé Mose àti Aaroni kúrò ní iwájú Farao.
No! Go, just the men among you, and worship Yahweh, for that is what you want.” Then Moses and Aaron were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
12 Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose, “Gbé ọwọ́ rẹ sókè lórí Ejibiti kí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ eṣú bo gbogbo ilẹ̀, kí ó sì ba gbogbo ohun ọ̀gbìn tí ó wà ni inú oko wọn jẹ́, àní gbogbo ohun tí òjò yìnyín kò bàjẹ́ tan.”
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand over the land of Egypt to the locusts, that they may attack the land of Egypt and eat every plant in it, everything that the hail has left.”
13 Nígbà náà ni Mose na ọ̀pá ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sórí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, Olúwa sì mú kí afẹ́fẹ́ láti ìlà-oòrùn fẹ́ kọjá lórí ilẹ̀ náà ni gbogbo ọ̀sán àti ni gbogbo òru ni ọjọ́ náà. Ní òwúrọ̀ afẹ́fẹ́ náà ti gbá ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ eṣú wá;
Moses reached out with his staff over the land of Egypt, and Yahweh brought an east wind over the land all that day and night. When it was morning, the east wind had brought the locusts.
14 wọ́n sì bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, wọ́n wà ní ibi gbogbo ní orí ilẹ̀ ní àìmoye, ṣáájú àkókò yìí kò sí irú ìyọnu eṣú bẹ́ẹ̀ rí, kò sì ní sí irú rẹ mọ́ lẹ́yìn èyí.
The locusts went through all the land of Egypt and infested all parts of it. Never before had there been such a swarm of locusts in the land, and nothing like this will come after it.
15 Wọ́n bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ tí ilẹ̀ fi di dúdú. Wọ́n ba gbogbo ohun tókù ní orí ilẹ̀ lẹ́yìn òjò yìnyín jẹ́; gbogbo ohun ọ̀gbìn tí ó wà ní inú oko àti gbogbo èso tí ó wà lórí igi. Kò sí ewé tí ó kù lórí igi tàbí lórí ohun ọ̀gbìn ní gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
They covered the surface of the whole land so that it was darkened. They ate every plant in the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Throughout all the land of Egypt, no living green plant remained, nor any tree or plant in the fields.
16 Farao yára ránṣẹ́ pe Mose àti Aaroni, ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Èmi ti ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín àti sí i yín pẹ̀lú.
Then Pharaoh quickly summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “I have sinned against Yahweh your God and against you.
17 Nísinsin yìí ẹ dáríjì mi lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i kí ẹ sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín kí ó lè mú ìpọ́njú yìí kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ mi.”
Now then, forgive my sin this time, and pray to Yahweh your God that he will take this death away from me.”
18 Nígbà náà ni Mose kúrò ní iwájú Farao ó sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa.
So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to Yahweh.
19 Olúwa sì yí afẹ́fẹ́ náà padà di afẹ́fẹ́ líle láti apá ìwọ̀-oòrùn wá láti gbá àwọn eṣú náà kúrò ní orí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti lọ sínú Òkun Pupa. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹyọ eṣú kan kò ṣẹ́kù sí orí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
Yahweh brought a very strong west wind that picked up the locusts and drove them into the Sea of Reeds; not a single locust remained in all the territory of Egypt.
20 Síbẹ̀ Olúwa ṣe àyà Farao le, kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ.
But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and Pharaoh did not let the Israelites go.
21 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Gbé ọwọ́ rẹ sókè sí ojú ọ̀run kí òkùnkùn bá à le bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti; àní òkùnkùn biribiri.”
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand toward the sky, so that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness that may be felt.”
22 Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ọwọ́ rẹ sókè sí ojú ọ̀run, òkùnkùn biribiri sì bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta. Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní ìmọ́lẹ̀ ní ibi tí wọn ń gbé.
Moses reached out with his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
23 Kò sí ẹni tí ó le è ríran rí ẹlòmíràn tàbí kí ó kúrò ní ibi tí ó wà fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta. Síbẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ ni gbogbo ibi tí wọ́n ń gbé.
No one could see anyone else; no one left his home for three days. However, all the Israelites had light in the place where they lived.
24 Farao sì ránṣẹ́ pe Mose ó sì wí fún un pé, “Lọ sin Olúwa, kódà àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn ọmọdé lè lọ pẹ̀lú yín, ṣùgbọ́n kí ìwọ kí ó fi agbo àgùntàn àti agbo màlúù yín sílẹ̀.”
Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go worship Yahweh. Even your families may go with you, but your flocks and herds must remain behind.”
25 Ṣùgbọ́n Mose sọ pé, “Ìwọ gbọdọ̀ fún wa láààyè láti rú ẹbọ àti ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.
But Moses said, “You must also give us animals for sacrifices and burnt offerings so that we may sacrifice them to Yahweh our God.
26 Àwọn ohun ọ̀sìn wa gbọdọ̀ lọ pẹ̀lú wa, a kì yóò fi pátákò ẹsẹ̀ ẹran sílẹ̀. A ní láti lò lára wọn fún sínsin Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, ìgbà tí a bá sì dé ibẹ̀ ni a ó to mọ̀ ohun ti a ó lò láti fi sin Olúwa.”
Our cattle must also go with us; not a hoof of them may be left behind, for we must take them to worship Yahweh our God. For we do not know with what we must worship Yahweh until we arrive there.”
27 Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa sé ọkàn Farao le, kò sì ṣetán láti jẹ́ kí wọn lọ.
But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
28 Farao sọ fún Mose pé, “Kúrò ní iwájú mi! Rí i dájú pé o kò wá sí iwájú mi mọ́! Ọjọ́ tí ìwọ bá rí ojú mi ni ìwọ yóò kùú.”
Pharaoh said to Moses, “Go from me! Be careful about one thing, that you do not see me again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.”
29 Mose sì dáhùn pé, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti wí, “Èmi kí yóò wá sí iwájú rẹ mọ́.”
Moses said, “You yourself have spoken. I will not see your face again.”
