< Exodus 9 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Lọ sọ fún Farao, ‘Èyí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Heberu sọ, “Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn Mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn bá à lè sìn Mí.”
The Lord told Moses, “Go and speak to Pharaoh. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: Let my people go, so that they can worship me.
2 Bí ìwọ bá kọ̀ láti jẹ́ kí wọn ó lọ, tí ó sì dá wọn dúró.
If you refuse to let them go and keep holding onto them,
3 Ọwọ́ Olúwa yóò mú ààrùn búburú wá sí ara ẹran ọ̀sìn nínú oko, sí ara ẹṣin, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, ìbákasẹ, màlúù, àgùntàn àti ewúrẹ́ yín.
I will punish you by bringing a very severe plague on your livestock—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
4 Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa yóò pààlà sí àárín ẹran ọ̀sìn tí ó jẹ́ ti Israẹli àti ti àwọn ara Ejibiti tí yóò fi jẹ́ pé kò sí ẹran ọ̀sìn ti ó jẹ́ ti ará Israẹli tí yóò kùú.’”
But the Lord will distinguish between the livestock of the Israelites and the Egyptians, so that none of those belonging to the Israelites will die.’
5 Olúwa sì dá àkókò kan wí pé, “Ní ọ̀la ni Olúwa yóò ṣe èyí ni ilẹ̀ yìí.”
The Lord has set a time, saying, ‘Tomorrow this is what is going to happen here in the country.’”
6 Olúwa sí ṣe é ni ọjọ́ kejì. Gbogbo ẹran ọ̀sìn ará Ejibiti kú, ṣùgbọ́n ẹyọ kan kò kú lára ẹran ọ̀sìn àwọn Israẹli.
The following day the Lord did what he had said. All the Egyptians' livestock died, but not a single animal belonging to the Israelites died.
7 Farao rán àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ láti lọ ṣe ìwádìí, wọ́n sì rí pé ẹyọ kan kò kú lára àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn ará Israẹli. Síbẹ̀ náà, Farao kò yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà àti pé kò jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn ó lọ.
Pharaoh sent out officials and discovered that not a single one of the Israelites' livestock had died. But Pharaoh was stubborn, and he would not let the people leave.
8 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose àti Aaroni, “Ẹ bu ẹ̀kúnwọ́ eérú gbígbóná láti inú ààrò, kí Mose kù ú sí inú afẹ́fẹ́ ni iwájú Farao.
The Lord told Moses and Aaron, “Go and get some handfuls of soot from a furnace. Then have Moses throw it into the air in front of Pharaoh.
9 Yóò sì di eruku lẹ́búlẹ́bú ni gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, yóò sì di oówo ti ń tú pẹ̀lú ìléròrò sí ara àwọn ènìyàn àti ẹran jákèjádò gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.”
It will spread like fine dust over the whole country of Egypt, and open sores will break out on people and animals throughout the land.”
10 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n bú eérú gbígbóná láti inú ààrò, wọ́n dúró ní iwájú Farao. Mose sì ku eérú náà sínú afẹ́fẹ́, ó sì di oówo tí ń tú pẹ̀lú ìléròrò ni ara àwọn ènìyàn àti lára ẹran.
They got soot from a furnace, and went to see Pharaoh. Moses threw it into the air, and open sores broke out on people and animals.
11 Àwọn onídán kò le è dúró níwájú Mose nítorí oówo ti ó wà lára wọn àti ni ara gbogbo àwọn ara Ejibiti.
The magicians were unable to come and appear before Moses, because they and all the other Egyptians were covered in sores.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run sé ọkàn Farao le, kò sì gbọ́ ti Mose àti Aaroni, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ fún Mose.
But the Lord gave Pharaoh a stubborn attitude, and he would not listen to them, just as the Lord had told Moses.
13 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Dìde ni òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù, kí o sì tọ Farao lọ, kí o sì wí fún un pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Heberu wí, Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn mi kí ó lọ, kí wọn bá à lè sìn mí,
The Lord told Moses, “Tomorrow morning get up early and go to Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let my people go, so that they can worship me.
14 nítorí nígbà yìí ni èmi yóò rán àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ti ó ní agbára gidigidi sí ọ, sí àwọn ìjòyè rẹ àti sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, kí ìwọ kí ó lè mọ̀ pé, kò sí ẹni bí èmi ni gbogbo ayé.
This time I will direct all my plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you will realize that there is no one like me in all the earth.
15 Ó ti yẹ kí n ti na ọwọ́ mi jáde láti kọlù ọ́ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ pẹ̀lú ààrùn búburú ti kò bá ti run yín kúrò ni orí ilẹ̀.
By now I could have reached out to strike you and your people with a plague that would have completely destroyed you.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí èyí ni èmi ṣe mú ọ dúró, kí èmi kí ó le fi agbára mi hàn lára rẹ, àti kí a bá à le máa ròyìn orúkọ mi ká gbogbo ayé.
However, I have let you live so you can see my power, and that my reputation may be spread throughout the earth.
17 Síbẹ̀ ìwọ tún gbógun ti àwọn ènìyàn mi, ìwọ kò sì jẹ́ kí wọn lọ.
But in your pride you are still tyrannizing my people, and refuse to let them leave.
18 Nítorí náà, ni ìwòyí ọ̀la, Èmi yóò rán òjò o yìnyín tí irú rẹ̀ kò tí i rọ̀ rí ni Ejibiti láti ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ títí di àkókò yìí.
So watch out! About this time tomorrow I will send down the worst hailstorm that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the beginning of its history until now.
19 Pàṣẹ nísinsin yìí láti kó ẹran ọ̀sìn yín àti ohun gbogbo ti ẹ ni ní pápá wá sí abẹ́ ààbò, nítorí òjò yìnyín yóò rọ̀ sí orí àwọn ènìyàn àti ẹran ti a kò kó wá sí abẹ́ ààbò tí wọ́n sì wà ni orí pápá, wọn yóò sì kú.’”
So order your livestock and everything you have in the field to be brought inside. Every person and every animal that stays outside and is not brought inside will die when the hail falls on them.’”
20 Àwọn ti ó bẹ̀rù ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa lára àwọn ìjòyè Farao yára lọ láti kó àwọn ẹrú àti àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn wọn wá sí abẹ́ ààbò.
Those of Pharaoh's officials who took seriously what the Lord said rushed to bring their servants and livestock inside.
21 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ti kò kà ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sí fi àwọn ẹrú wọn àti àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn wọn sílẹ̀ ni pápá.
But those who didn't care what the Lord said left their servants and livestock outside.
22 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Gbé ọwọ́ rẹ sókè sí ọ̀run kí yìnyín bá à lè rọ̀ sí orí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, sí orí ènìyàn àti ẹranko, àti sí orí gbogbo ohun ọ̀gbìn tí ó wà ni inú oko.”
The Lord told Moses, “Lift your hand towards the sky so that a hailstorm will fall over the whole of Egypt, on people and on animals, and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.”
23 Nígbà tí Mose gbé ọ̀pá rẹ̀ sókè sí ojú ọ̀run, Olúwa rán àrá àti yìnyín, mọ̀nàmọ́ná sì bùsi orí ilẹ̀. Olúwa rọ òjò yìnyín sí orí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
Moses held up his staff toward heaven, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and made lightning hit the ground. This is how the Lord rained hail down on Egypt.
24 Yìnyín rọ̀, mọ̀nàmọ́ná sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí bùsi orí ilẹ̀ èyí ni ó tí ì burú jù ti ó ṣẹlẹ̀ láti ìgbà ti Ejibiti ti di orílẹ̀-èdè.
As the hail fell it was accompanied by lightning flashing back and forth. The hail that fell was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in the whole of Egypt since the beginning of its history.
25 Jákèjádò gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ni yìnyín ti pa gbogbo ohun tí ó wà ni orí pápá; ènìyàn àti ẹranko, ó wò gbogbo ohun ọ̀gbìn lulẹ̀ ó sì fa gbogbo igi ya pẹ̀lú.
All across Egypt hail hit everything in the fields, both people and animals. It knocked down everything growing in the fields, and stripped every tree bare.
26 Ilẹ̀ Goṣeni ni ibi ti àwọn Israẹli wà nìkan ni òjò yìnyín náà kò rọ̀ dé.
Only in the land of Goshen where the Israelites lived was there no hail.
27 Nígbà náà ni Farao pe Mose àti Aaroni sì ọ̀dọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èmi ti ṣẹ̀ ní àkókò yìí; Olúwa jẹ́ olódodo ṣùgbọ́n èmi àti àwọn ènìyàn mi ni aláìṣòdodo.
Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and told them, “I admit that I sinned this time! The Lord is right, and I and my people are wrong!
28 Èyí ti òjò yìnyín àti àrá rọ̀ yìí tó gẹ́ẹ́, gbàdúrà sí Olúwa kí ó dáwọ́ rẹ̀ dúró. Èmi yóò jẹ́ kí ẹ lọ, n kò tún ni dá a yín dúró mọ́.”
Pray to the Lord for us, because there's been more than enough of God's thunder and hail. I will let you leave. You don't need to stay here any longer.”
29 Mose dá a lóhùn pé, “Bí mo bá ti jáde kúrò ní àárín ìlú, èmi yóò gbé ọwọ́ mi sókè sí Olúwa, sísán àrá yóò dáwọ́ dúró, yìnyín kò sì ni rọ̀ mọ́, kí ìwọ kí ó lè mọ̀ pé Olúwa ni ó ni ilẹ̀.
“Once I've left the city, I will pray to the Lord for you,” Moses told him. “The thunder will stop, and there'll be no more hail, so that you will realize that the earth belongs to the Lord.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ̀ pé síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ ìwọ àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ kò bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run.”
But I know you and your officials still do not really respect the Lord our God.”
31 (A sì lu ọ̀gbọ̀ àti ọkà barle bolẹ̀; nítorí barle wà ní ìpẹ́, ọ̀gbọ̀ sì rudi.
(The flax and barley were destroyed, because the barley was ripe and the flax was flowering.
32 Alikama àti ọkà ni a kò lù bolẹ̀, nítorí tí wọ́n kò tí ì dàgbà.)
However, the wheat and the spelt were not destroyed because they grow later.)
33 Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde kúrò ni iwájú Farao, ó kúrò ni àárín ìgboro kọjá lọ sí ẹ̀yìn odi ìlú, ó sì gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sókè sí Olúwa, sísán àrá àti òjò yìnyín ti ń rọ̀ sì dáwọ́ dúró, òjò kò sì rọ̀ sí orí ilẹ̀ mọ́.
Moses left Pharaoh and went out of the city, and prayed to the Lord. The thunder and hail stopped, and the rainstorm finished.
34 Nígbà tí Farao rí i pé òjò àti yìnyín àti àrá ti ń sán ti dáwọ́ dúró, ó tún ṣẹ̀ ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan sí i. Òun àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ṣì sé àyà wọn le.
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had stopped, he sinned again, and he chose to become stubborn again, along with his officials.
35 Àyà Farao sì le, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kí ó lọ, bí Olúwa ti sọ láti ẹnu Mose.
Because of his stubborn attitude, Pharaoh would not let the Israelites leave, just as the Lord had predicted through Moses.
