< Exodus 8 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Padà tọ Farao lọ kí ó sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Èyí ni Olúwa wí: Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn ó bá à lè sìn mi.
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him, 'Yahweh says this: “Let my people go so that they may worship me.
2 Bí ìwọ bá kọ̀ láti jẹ́ kí wọn ó lọ, èmi yóò fi ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ kọlu gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ.
If you refuse to let them go, I will afflict all your country with frogs.
3 Odò Naili yóò kún fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́. Wọn yóò gòkè wá sí ààfin rẹ, àti yàrá rẹ ni orí ibùsùn rẹ. Wọn yóò gòkè wá sí ilé àwọn ìjòyè rẹ àti sí ara àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àti sí ibi ìdáná rẹ, àti sí inú ìkòkò ìyẹ̀fun rẹ.
The river will swarm with frogs. They will come up and go into your house, your bedroom, and your bed. They will go into your servants' houses. They will go onto your people, into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls.
4 Àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ yóò gun ara rẹ àti ara àwọn ìjòyè rẹ, àti ara gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.’”
The frogs will attack you, your people, and all your servants.”'”
5 Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Sọ fún Aaroni, ‘Kí ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde pẹ̀lú ọ̀pá sí orí àwọn odò kéékèèké àti odò ńlá, àti sí orí àwọn àbàtà kí ó sì mú àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ gòkè wá sí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.’”
Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, 'Reach out with your hand and your staff over the rivers, the streams, and the pools, and bring the frogs up over the land of Egypt.'”
6 Ní ìgbà náà ni Aaroni sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde sí orí àwọn omi Ejibiti, àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ sì wá, wọ́n sì bo gbogbo ilẹ̀.
Aaron reached out with his hand over Egypt's waters, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn onídán ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ṣe bákan náà pẹ̀lú agbára òkùnkùn wọn. Àwọn náà mú kí ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ gún wá sí orí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
But the magicians did the same with their magic; they brought up frogs over the land of Egypt.
8 Farao ránṣẹ́ pe Mose àti Aaroni, ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Gbàdúrà sí Olúwa kí ó mú àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ wọ̀nyí kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi àti lára àwọn ènìyàn mi, Èmi yóò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ kí ó lọ láti rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.”
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to Yahweh for him to take away the frogs from me and my people. Then I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to him.”
9 Mose sọ fún Farao pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ sọ fún mi ìgbà ti èmi yóò gbàdúrà fún ọ àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ àti fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, kí àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ wọ̀nyí bá lè lọ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ àti ní àwọn ilé yín tí wọn yóò sì wà nínú odò Naili nìkan.”
Moses said to Pharaoh, “You can have the privilege of telling me when I should pray for you, your servants, and your people, so that the frogs may be removed from you and your houses and stay only in the river.”
10 Farao wí pé, “Ni ọ̀la.” Mose sì dáhùn pé, “Yóò sì rí bí ìwọ ti sọ, kí ìwọ kí ó lè mọ̀ pé kò sí ẹni bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.
Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Let it be as you say, so that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh, our God.
11 Àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ yóò fi ìwọ àti àwọn ilé yín àti ìjòyè rẹ, àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ sílẹ̀, wọn yóò sì wà nínú Naili nìkan.”
The frogs will go from you, your houses, your servants, and your people. They will stay only in the river.”
12 Lẹ́yìn tí Mose àti Aaroni tí kúrò ní iwájú Farao, Mose gbé ohùn ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ̀ sókè sí Olúwa nípa àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ tí ó ti rán sí Farao.
Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. Then Moses cried out to Yahweh concerning the frogs that he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 Olúwa sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Mose tí béèrè. Àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ sì kú nínú ilé àti ní ìta, gbangba àti nínú oko.
Yahweh did as Moses asked: The frogs died in the houses, courts, and fields.
14 Wọ́n sì kó wọn jọ ni òkìtì òkìtì gbogbo ilẹ̀ sì ń rùn.
The people gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n ni ìgbà tí Farao rí pé ìtura dé, ó sé ọkàn rẹ̀ le kò sì fetí sí Mose àti Aaroni gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti wí.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as Yahweh had said that he would do.
16 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Sọ fún Aaroni, ‘Na ọ̀pá rẹ jáde kí ó sì lu eruku ilẹ̀,’ jákèjádò gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ni erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ yóò ti di kòkòrò-kantíkantí.” (Kòkòrò kan tí ó ní ìyẹ́ méjì tí ó ṣì ń ta ni.)
Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, 'Reach out with your staff and strike the dust on the ground, that it may become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.'”
17 Wọ́n sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, nígbà tí Aaroni na ọwọ́ rẹ́ jáde pẹ̀lú ọ̀pá ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀, tí ó sì lu eruku ilẹ̀, kòkòrò-kantíkantí sì wà lára àwọn ènìyàn àti àwọn ẹranko wọn. Gbogbo eruku jákèjádò ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ni ó di kòkòrò-kantíkantí.
They did so: Aaron reached out with his hand and his staff. He struck the dust on the ground. Gnats came onto man and beast. All the dust on the ground became gnats throughout the whole land of Egypt.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn onídán gbìdánwò láti da kòkòrò-kantíkantí pẹ̀lú agbára òkùnkùn wọn, wọn kò le è ṣé. Nígbà tí kòkòrò-kantíkantí sì wà lára àwọn ẹranko wọn,
The magicians tried with their magic to produce gnats, but they could not. There were gnats on man and beast.
19 àwọn onídán sì sọ fún Farao pé, “Ìka Ọlọ́run ni èyí.” Ṣùgbọ́n àyà Farao sì yigbì, kò sì fetísílẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ.
Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh's heart was hardened, so he refused to listen to them. It was just as Yahweh had said Pharaoh would do.
20 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Lọ ní òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù kí o sì ko Farao lójú bí ó ṣe ń lọ sí odò, kí o sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Èyí ni Olúwa sọ: Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn kí ó bá à lè sìn Mi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning and stand in front of Pharaoh as he goes out to the river. Say to him, 'Yahweh says this: “Let my people go so that they may worship me.
21 Bí ìwọ kò bá jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn Mi kí ó lọ, èmi yóò rán ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ eṣinṣin sí ara rẹ àti sí ara àwọn ìjòyè rẹ, àti sí ara àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, sí àwọn ilẹ̀ rẹ̀. Gbogbo ilé àwọn ará Ejibiti ni yóò kún fún eṣinṣin àti orí ilẹ̀ tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú.
But if you do not let my people go, I will send swarms of flies on you, your servants, and your people, and into your houses. The Egyptians' houses will be full of swarms of flies, and even the ground on which they stand will be full of flies.
22 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n ni ọjọ́ náà, Èmi yóò ya ilẹ̀ Goṣeni sọ́tọ̀, níbi tí àwọn ènìyàn mi ń gbé, ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin kankan ki yóò dé ibẹ̀. Kí ìwọ kí ó lè mọ̀ pé, Èmi ni Olúwa, mo wà ni ilẹ̀ yìí.
But on that day I will treat the land of Goshen differently, the land in which my people are living, so that no swarms of flies will be there. This will happen so that you may know that I am Yahweh in the midst of this land.
23 Èmi yóò pààlà sáàárín àwọn ènìyàn mi àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ. Àwọn iṣẹ́ ìyanu yìí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ ni ọ̀la.’”
I will make a distinction between my people and your people. This sign of my power will take place tomorrow.”'”
24 Olúwa sì ṣe èyí. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ eṣinṣin sì ya wọ ààfin Farao àti sí ilé àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀. Gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti bàjẹ́ pẹ̀lú ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin wọ̀n-ọn-nì.
Yahweh did so, and thick swarms of flies came into Pharaoh's house and into his servants' houses. Throughout the whole land of Egypt, the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies.
25 Nígbà náà ni Farao ránṣẹ́ pe Mose àti Aaroni, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ máa lọ kí ẹ sì rú ẹbọ sí Ọlọ́run yín ní ilẹ̀ yìí.”
Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in our own land.”
26 Ṣùgbọ́n Mose sọ pé, “Èyí ló tọ́, ẹbọ tí a ó rú sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò jẹ́ ohun ìríra sí àwọn ará ilẹ̀ Ejibiti. Bí a bá ṣe ìrúbọ ti yóò jẹ́ ìríra ni ojú wọn ṣé wọn, ó ní sọ òkúta lù wá?
Moses said, “It is not right for us to do so, for the sacrifices we make to Yahweh our God are something disgusting to the Egyptians. If we make sacrifices right before their eyes that are disgusting to the Egyptians, will they not stone us?
27 A gbọdọ̀ lọ ni ìrìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta sí inú aginjù láti rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti pàṣẹ fún wa.”
No, it is a three days' journey into the wilderness that we must make, in order to sacrifice to Yahweh our God, as he commands us.”
28 Nígbà náà ni Farao wí pé, “Èmi yóò jẹ́ ki ẹ lọ rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín nínú aginjù, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ rìn jìnnà jù. Ẹ gbàdúrà fún mi.”
Pharaoh said, “I will allow you to go and sacrifice to Yahweh your God in the wilderness. Only you must not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 Mose dáhùn ó wí pé, “Bí èmi bá ti kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, èmi yóò gbàdúrà sí Olúwa, àwọn ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin yóò fi Farao, àwọn ìjòyè rẹ, àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ sílẹ̀ ní ọ̀la ṣùgbọ́n ǹjẹ́ ìdánilójú wa pé Farao kò tún ni lo ẹ̀tàn láti má jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn kí ó lọ rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.”
Moses said, “As soon as I go out from you, I will pray to Yahweh that the swarms of flies may leave you, Pharaoh, and your servants and people tomorrow. But you must not deal deceitfully any more by not letting our people go to sacrifice to Yahweh.”
30 Nígbà náà ni Mose kúrò ni ọ̀dọ̀ Farao, ó sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa;
Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to Yahweh.
31 Olúwa sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Mose ti béèrè. Àwọn ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin kúrò lára Farao àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ àti lára àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, eṣinṣin kan kò sì ṣẹ́kù.
Yahweh did as Moses asked; and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, his servants, and his people. Not one remained.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n ni àkókò yìí náà, Farao sé ọkàn rẹ le, kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn ó lọ.
But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.
