< Exodus 8 >

1 dixitque Dominus ad Mosen ingredere ad Pharao et dices ad eum haec dicit Dominus dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go in unto Pharaoh: and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;
2 sin autem nolueris dimittere ecce ego percutiam omnes terminos tuos ranis
and if thou art refusing to send away, lo, I am smiting all thy border with frogs;
3 et ebulliet fluvius ranas quae ascendent et ingredientur domum tuam et cubiculum lectuli tui et super stratum tuum et in domos servorum tuorum et in populum tuum et in furnos tuos et in reliquias ciborum tuorum
and the River hath teemed [with] frogs, and they have gone up and gone into thy house, and into the inner-chamber of thy bed, and on thy couch, and into the house of thy servants, and among thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs;
4 et ad te et ad populum tuum et ad omnes servos tuos intrabunt ranae
yea, on thee, and on thy people, and on all thy servants do the frogs go up.'
5 dixitque Dominus ad Mosen dic Aaron extende manum tuam super fluvios et super rivos ac paludes et educ ranas super terram Aegypti
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy hand, with thy rod, against the streams, against the rivers, and against the ponds, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.'
6 extendit Aaron manum super aquas Aegypti et ascenderunt ranae operueruntque terram Aegypti
And Aaron stretcheth out his hand against the waters of Egypt, and the frog cometh up, and covereth the land of Egypt;
7 fecerunt autem et malefici per incantationes suas similiter eduxeruntque ranas super terram Aegypti
and the scribes do so with their flashings, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.
8 vocavit autem Pharao Mosen et Aaron et dixit orate Dominum ut auferat ranas a me et a populo meo et dimittam populum ut sacrificet Domino
And Pharaoh calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, 'Make supplication unto Jehovah, that he turn aside the frogs from me, and from my people, and I send the people away, and they sacrifice to Jehovah.'
9 dixitque Moses Pharaoni constitue mihi quando deprecer pro te et pro servis tuis et pro populo tuo ut abigantur ranae a te et a domo tua et tantum in flumine remaneant
And Moses saith to Pharaoh, 'Beautify thyself over me; when do I make supplication for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to cut off the frogs from thee and from thy houses — only in the River they do remain?'
10 qui respondit cras at ille iuxta verbum inquit tuum ut scias quoniam non est sicut Dominus Deus noster
and he saith, 'To-morrow.' And he saith, According to thy word [it is], so that thou knowest that there is none like Jehovah our God,
11 et recedent ranae a te et a domo tua et a servis tuis et a populo tuo tantum in flumine remanebunt
and the frogs have turned aside from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; only in the River they do remain.'
12 egressique sunt Moses et Aaron a Pharaone et clamavit Moses ad Dominum pro sponsione ranarum quam condixerat Pharaoni
And Moses — Aaron also — goeth out from Pharaoh, and Moses crieth unto Jehovah, concerning the matter of the frogs which He hath set on Pharaoh;
13 fecitque Dominus iuxta verbum Mosi et mortuae sunt ranae de domibus et de villis et de agris
and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and the frogs die out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields,
14 congregaveruntque eas in inmensos aggeres et conputruit terra
and they heap them up together, and the land stinketh.
15 videns autem Pharao quod data esset requies ingravavit cor suum et non audivit eos sicut praeceperat Dominus
And Pharaoh seeth that there hath been a respite, and he hath hardened his heart, and hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
16 dixitque Dominus ad Mosen loquere ad Aaron extende virgam tuam et percute pulverem terrae et sint scinifes in universa terra Aegypti
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, and it hath become gnats in all the land of Egypt.'
17 feceruntque ita et extendit Aaron manu virgam tenens percussitque pulverem terrae et facti sunt scinifes in hominibus et in iumentis omnis pulvis terrae versus est in scinifes per totam terram Aegypti
And they do so, and Aaron stretcheth out his hand with his rod, and smiteth the dust of the land, and the gnats are on man and on beast; all the dust of the land hath been gnats in all the land of Egypt.
18 feceruntque similiter malefici incantationibus suis ut educerent scinifes et non potuerunt erantque scinifes tam in hominibus quam in iumentis
And the scribes do so with their flashings, to bring out the gnats, and they have not been able, and the gnats are on man and on beast;
19 et dixerunt malefici ad Pharao digitus Dei est induratumque est cor Pharaonis et non audivit eos sicut praeceperat Dominus
and the scribes say unto Pharaoh, 'It [is] the finger of God;' and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
20 dixit quoque Dominus ad Mosen consurge diluculo et sta coram Pharaone egreditur enim ad aquas et dices ad eum haec dicit Dominus dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, lo, he is going out to the waters, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Send My people away, and they serve Me;
21 quod si non dimiseris eum ecce ego inmittam in te et in servos tuos et in populum tuum et in domos tuas omne genus muscarum et implebuntur domus Aegyptiorum muscis diversi generis et in universa terra in qua fuerint
for, if thou art not sending My people away, lo, I am sending against thee, and against thy servants, and against thy people, and against thy houses, the beetle, and the houses of the Egyptians have been full of the beetle, and also the ground on which they are.
22 faciamque mirabilem in die illa terram Gessen in qua populus meus est ut non sint ibi muscae et scias quoniam ego Dominus in medio terrae
'And I have separated in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people are staying, that the beetle is not there, so that thou knowest that I [am] Jehovah in the midst of the land,
23 ponamque divisionem inter populum meum et populum tuum cras erit signum istud
and I have put a division between My people and thy people: to-morrow is this sign.'
24 fecitque Dominus ita et venit musca gravissima in domos Pharaonis et servorum eius et in omnem terram Aegypti corruptaque est terra ab huiuscemodi muscis
And Jehovah doth so, and the grievous beetle entereth the house of Pharaoh, and the house of his servants, and in all the land of Egypt the land is corrupted from the presence of the beetle.
25 vocavit Pharao Mosen et Aaron et ait eis ite sacrificate Deo vestro in terra
And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and to Aaron, and saith, 'Go, sacrifice to your God in the land;'
26 et ait Moses non potest ita fieri abominationes enim Aegyptiorum immolabimus Domino Deo nostro quod si mactaverimus ea quae colunt Aegyptii coram eis lapidibus nos obruent
and Moses saith, 'Not right to do so, for the abomination of the Egyptians we do sacrifice to Jehovah our God; lo, we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes — and they do not stone us!
27 via trium dierum pergemus in solitudine et sacrificabimus Domino Deo nostro sicut praeceperit nobis
A journey of three days we go into the wilderness, and have sacrificed to Jehovah our God, as He saith unto us.'
28 dixitque Pharao ego dimittam vos ut sacrificetis Domino Deo vestro in deserto verumtamen longius ne abeatis rogate pro me
And Pharaoh saith, 'I send you away, and ye have sacrificed to Jehovah your God in the wilderness, only go not very far off; make ye supplication for me;'
29 et ait Moses egressus a te orabo Dominum et recedet musca a Pharaone et a servis et a populo eius cras verumtamen noli ultra fallere ut non dimittas populum sacrificare Domino
and Moses saith, 'Lo, I am going out from thee, and have made supplication unto Jehovah, and the beetle hath turned aside from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people — to-morrow, only let not Pharaoh add to deceive — in not sending the people away to sacrifice to Jehovah.'
30 egressusque Moses a Pharao oravit Dominum
And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
31 qui fecit iuxta verbum illius et abstulit muscas a Pharao et a servis et a populo eius non superfuit ne una quidem
and Jehovah doth according to the word of Moses, and turneth aside the beetle from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people — there hath not been left one;
32 et ingravatum est cor Pharaonis ita ut ne hac quidem vice dimitteret populum
and Pharaoh hardeneth his heart also at this time, and hath not sent the people away.
