اَلْخُرُوجُ 11

١ 1 ثُمَّ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ضَرْبَةً وَاحِدَةً أَيْضًا أَجْلِبُ عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَلَى مِصْرَ. بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يُطْلِقُكُمْ مِنْ هُنَا. وَعِنْدَمَا يُطْلِقُكُمْ يَطْرُدُكُمْ طَرْدًا مِنْ هُنَا بِٱلتَّمَامِ.

Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Yet one plague, will I bring in upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, after that, he will let you go from hence, —when he doth let you go, he will, altogether drive, you out from hence.

٢ 2 تَكَلَّمْ فِي مَسَامِعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ أَنْ يَطْلُبَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ، وَكُلُّ ٱمْرَأَةٍ مِنْ صَاحِبَتِهَا أَمْتِعَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَأَمْتِعَةَ ذَهَبٍ».

Speak, I pray you, in the ears of the people, —and let them ask—every man of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, articles of silver and articles of gold.

٣ 3 وَأَعْطَى ٱلرَّبُّ نِعْمَةً لِلشَّعْبِ فِي عُيُونِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. وَأَيْضًا ٱلرَّجُلُ مُوسَى كَانَ عَظِيمًا جِدًّا فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ فِي عُيُونِ عَبِيدِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعُيُونِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

And Yahweh gave the people favour, in the eyes of the Egyptians, —even the man Moses himself, was exceeding great in the land of Egypt, —in the eyes of Pharaoh’s servants and in the eyes of the people.

٤ 4 وَقَالَ مُوسَى: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي نَحْوَ نِصْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ أَخْرُجُ فِي وَسَطِ مِصْرَ،

And Moses said, Thus saith Yahweh, —About midnight, am, I, going forth in the midst of Egypt;

٥ 5 فَيَمُوتُ كُلُّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ إِلَى بِكْرِ ٱلْجَارِيَةِ ٱلَّتِي خَلْفَ ٱلرَّحَى، وَكُلُّ بِكْرِ بَهِيمَةٍ.

then shall every firstborn in the land of Egypt die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, unto the firstborn of the handmaid who is behind the two millstones, —and every firstborn of beasts;

٦ 6 وَيَكُونُ صُرَاخٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِثْلُهُ وَلَا يَكُونُ مِثْلُهُ أَيْضًا.

then shall there be a great outcry, in all the land of Egypt, —such, as never was and, such, as shall not be again.

٧ 7 وَلَكِنْ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا يُسَنِّنُ كَلْبٌ لِسَانَهُ إِلَيْهِمْ، لَا إِلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا إِلَى ٱلْبَهَائِمِ. لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ.

But against none of the sons of Israel, shall a dog sharpen his tongue, neither against man nor beast, —that ye may know that Yahweh maketh a difference between Egypt and Israel.

٨ 8 فَيَنْزِلُ إِلَيَّ جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِكَ هَؤُلَاءِ، وَيَسْجُدُونَ لِي قَائِلِينَ: ٱخْرُجْ أَنْتَ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أَثَرِكَ. وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَخْرُجُ». ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ فِي حُمُوِّ ٱلْغَضَبِ.

So shall all these thy servants come down unto me and bow themselves down to me saying—Go forth, thou and all the people who are in thy footsteps, and after that, will I go forth. And he went forth from Pharaoh, in a heat of anger.

٩ 9 وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «لَا يَسْمَعُ لَكُمَا فِرْعَوْنُ لِكَيْ تَكْثُرَ عَجَائِبِي فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ».

And Yahweh had said unto Moses, Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, —that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.

١٠ 10 وَكَانَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ يَفْعَلَانِ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْعَجَائِبِ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَلَكِنْ شَدَّدَ ٱلرَّبُّ قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ.

So then, Moses and Aaron, did all these wonders before Pharaoh, —but Yahweh let Pharaoh’s heart wax bold, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
