Exodus 7
1 And the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, I have appointed you as the god of Pharaoh. And Aaron, your brother, will be your prophet.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Gade! Mwen pral fè ou tounen Bondye pou farawon an. Arawon, frè ou la, pral pale avè l' pou ou tankou yon pwofèt.
2 You will speak to him all that I command you. And he will speak to Pharaoh, so that he may release the sons of Israel from his land.
W'a di Arawon tou sa mwen te ba ou lòd di. Li menm, l'a repete l' bay farawon an pou farawon an voye pitit Izrayèl yo pati kite peyi a.
3 But I will harden his heart, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt,
Mwen menm menm, m'ap fè farawon an fè tèt di. Konsa, m'a fè plis mirak ak plis mèvèy toujou nan peyi Lejip la.
4 and he will not listen to you. And I will send my hand over Egypt, and I will lead my army and my people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt, through very great judgments.
Farawon an p'ap koute nou. Lè sa a, m'a frape peyi Lejip la. m'a pini l' byen pini. m'a pran pitit Izrayèl yo, sòlda mwen yo, pèp mwen an, m'ap fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip.
5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, who has extended my hand over Egypt, and who has led the sons of Israel from their midst.”
Lè m'a frape peyi Lejip, lè m'a fè pitit Izrayèl yo soti nan mitan yo, moun peyi Lejip yo va konnen se mwen menm menm ki Seyè a vre.
6 And so, Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And so it was done.
Moyiz ak Arawon te fè tou sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè. Wi, yo fè tou sa li te di yo fè a.
7 Now Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Moyiz te gen katrevenzan, Arawon te gen katreventwazan lè yo t al pale ak farawon an.
8 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron:
Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon konsa:
9 “When Pharaoh will say to you, ‘Show signs,’ you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will be turned into a snake.’”
-Si farawon an mande nou fè yon mirak pou moutre ki moun nou ye, ou menm Moyiz w'a di Arawon pran baton l' lan, voye l' atè devan farawon an. Baton an va tounen yon koulèv.
10 And so Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they did just as the Lord had commanded. And Aaron took the staff in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and it was turned into a snake.
Moyiz ak Arawon al bò kote farawon an. Yo fè sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè a. Arawon voye baton l' lan devan farawon an ak devan tout moun farawon yo. Baton an tounen yon koulèv.
11 Then Pharaoh called the wise men and the sorcerers. And they also, by Egyptian incantations and certain secrets, did similarly.
Men farawon an rele nèg save l' yo ak divinò l' yo. Yo menm tou, avèk maji yo, yo te rive fè menm bagay la tou.
12 And each one cast down their staffs, and they were turned into serpents. But the staff of Aaron devoured their staffs.
Yo voye baton pa yo atè, baton yo tounen koulèv tou. Men, baton Arawon an vale tout lòt baton yo.
13 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.
Farawon an t'ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa t' vle koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
14 Then the Lord said to Moses: “The heart of Pharaoh has been hardened; he is not willing to release the people.
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Farawon an ap fè tèt di toujou. Li pa vle kite pèp la ale.
15 Go to him in the morning; behold, he will go out to the waters. And you will stand to meet him above the bank of the river. And you will take, in your hand, the staff that was turned into a serpent.
Ale bò kote farawon an denmen maten, lè li pral soti pou l' al bò gwo larivyè Nil la. Al tann li bò larivyè a. Baton ki te tounen koulèv la, w'a kenbe l' nan men ou.
16 And you will say to him: ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews sent me to you, saying: Release my people in order to sacrifice to me in the desert. And even until the present time, you were not willing to listen.
W'a di farawon an: Seyè a, Bondye ebre yo, te voye m' di ou konsa kite pèp li a ale pou yo ka fè yon sèvis pou li nan dezè a. Men, jouk koulye a ou pa vle koute l'.
17 Therefore, thus says the Lord: In this you will know that I am the Lord. Behold, I will strike, with the staff that is in my hand, the water of the river, and it will be turned into blood.
Jòdi a, men sa Seyè a di: mwen pral fè ou konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Mwen pral frape dlo gwo larivyè a avèk baton ki nan men m' lan, dlo a pral tounen san.
18 Also, the fishes that are in the river will die, and the waters will be polluted, and the Egyptians will be afflicted when they drink the water of the river.’”
Tout pwason yo pral mouri, dlo a pral santi move, moun peyi Lejip yo p'ap ka bwè dlo ladan li ankò.
19 The Lord also said to Moses: “Say to Aaron: ‘Take your staff; and extend your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers and streams and marshes and all the pools of waters, so that they may be turned into blood. And let there be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, as much in vessels of wood as in those of stone.’”
Seyè a di Moyiz ankò: -Di Arawon pran baton l' lan, lonje l' sou tout dlo ki nan peyi Lejip la: larivyè, kannal, letan, m'a dlo, wi, sou tout dlo ki genyen. Dlo yo va tounen san. Konsa va gen san sou tout peyi a, menm nan ganmèl yo ak nan kannari yo.
20 And Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And lifting up the staff, he struck the water of the river in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants. And it was turned into blood.
Moyiz ak Arawon fè sa Seyè a te ba yo lòd fè a. Arawon leve baton l' lan, li frape dlo gwo larivyè a devan farawon an ak devan tout moun farawon yo. Tout dlo gwo larivyè a tounen san.
21 And the fishes that were in the river died, and the river was polluted, and the Egyptians were not able to drink the water of the river, and there was blood throughout the entire land of Egypt.
Tout pwason nan larivyè a mouri. Dlo a vin santi move. Moun peyi Lejip yo pa t' kapab pran dlo ladan l' pou yo bwè ankò. Te gen san toupatou nan peyi a.
22 And the sorcerers of the Egyptians, with their incantations, did similarly. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.
Men, majisyen peyi Lejip yo te rive fè menm bagay la tou avèk maji yo. Farawon an menm t'ap fè tèt di pi rèd. Li pa koute Moyiz ak Arawon, tankou Seyè a te di a.
23 And he turned himself away, and he entered his house, neither did he apply his heart to this turn of events.
Farawon an vire do ba yo, l' al lakay li tankou si anyen pa t' rive.
24 Then all the Egyptians dug along the borders of the river for water to drink. For they were not able to drink from the water of the river.
Moun peyi Lejip yo pran fouye twou sou bò gwo larivyè a pou yo te ka jwenn dlo pròp pou yo bwè, paske yo pa t' kapab bwè dlo gwo larivyè a.
25 And seven days were completed, after the Lord struck the river.
Apre Seyè a te fin frape gwo larivyè a, li kite sèt jou pase.
