出埃及記 10
1 耶和華對摩西說：「你進去見法老。我使他和他臣僕的心剛硬，為要在他們中間顯我這些神蹟，
The LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs among them;
2 並要叫你將我向埃及人所做的事，和在他們中間所行的神蹟，傳於你兒子和你孫子的耳中，好叫你們知道我是耶和華。」
and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am the LORD.”
3 摩西、亞倫就進去見法老，對他說：「耶和華－希伯來人的上帝這樣說：『你在我面前不肯自卑要到幾時呢？容我的百姓去，好事奉我。
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
4 你若不肯容我的百姓去，明天我要使蝗蟲進入你的境內，
Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
5 遮滿地面，甚至看不見地，並且吃那冰雹所剩的和田間所長的一切樹木。
and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
6 你的宮殿和你眾臣僕的房屋，並一切埃及人的房屋，都要被蝗蟲佔滿了；自從你祖宗和你祖宗的祖宗在世以來，直到今日，沒有見過這樣的災。』」摩西就轉身離開法老出去。
Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 法老的臣僕對法老說：「這人為我們的網羅要到幾時呢？容這些人去事奉耶和華－他們的上帝吧！埃及已經敗壞了，你還不知道嗎？」
Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”
8 於是摩西、亞倫被召回來見法老；法老對他們說：「你們去事奉耶和華－你們的上帝；但那要去的是誰呢？」
Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve the LORD your God; but who are those who will go?”
9 摩西說：「我們要和我們老的少的、兒子女兒同去，且把羊群牛群一同帶去，因為我們務要向耶和華守節。」
Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old. We will go with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds; for we must hold a feast to the LORD.”
10 法老對他們說：「我容你們和你們婦人孩子去的時候，耶和華與你們同在吧！你們要謹慎；因為有禍在你們眼前，
He said to them, “The LORD be with you if I let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.
11 不可都去！你們這壯年人去事奉耶和華吧，因為這是你們所求的。」於是把他們從法老面前攆出去。
Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve the LORD; for that is what you desire!” Then they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
12 耶和華對摩西說：「你向埃及地伸杖，使蝗蟲到埃及地上來，吃地上一切的菜蔬，就是冰雹所剩的。」
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”
13 摩西就向埃及地伸杖，那一晝一夜，耶和華使東風颳在埃及地上；到了早晨，東風把蝗蟲颳了來。
Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 蝗蟲上來，落在埃及的四境，甚是厲害；以前沒有這樣的，以後也必沒有。
The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, nor will there ever be again.
15 因為這蝗蟲遮滿地面，甚至地都黑暗了，又吃地上一切的菜蔬和冰雹所剩樹上的果子。埃及遍地，無論是樹木，是田間的菜蔬，連一點青的也沒有留下。
For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16 於是法老急忙召了摩西、亞倫來，說：「我得罪耶和華－你們的上帝，又得罪了你們。
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
17 現在求你，只這一次，饒恕我的罪，求耶和華－你們的上帝使我脫離這一次的死亡。」
Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to the LORD your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”
18 摩西就離開法老去求耶和華。
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
19 耶和華轉了極大的西風，把蝗蟲颳起，吹入紅海；在埃及的四境連一個也沒有留下。
The LORD sent an exceedingly strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Sea of Suf. There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
20 但耶和華使法老的心剛硬，不容以色列人去。
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.
21 耶和華對摩西說：「你向天伸杖，使埃及地黑暗；這黑暗似乎摸得着。」
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”
22 摩西向天伸杖，埃及遍地就烏黑了三天。
Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
23 三天之久，人不能相見，誰也不敢起來離開本處；惟有以色列人家中都有亮光。
They didn’t see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24 法老就召摩西來，說：「你們去事奉耶和華；只是你們的羊群牛群要留下；你們的婦人孩子可以和你們同去。」
Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve the LORD. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”
25 摩西說：「你總要把祭物和燔祭牲交給我們，使我們可以祭祀耶和華－我們的上帝。
Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
26 我們的牲畜也要帶去，連一蹄也不留下；因為我們要從其中取出來，事奉耶和華－我們的上帝。我們未到那裏，還不知道用甚麼事奉耶和華。」
Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve the LORD our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve the LORD, until we come there.”
27 但耶和華使法老的心剛硬，不肯容他們去。
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.
28 法老對摩西說：「你離開我去吧，你要小心，不要再見我的面！因為你見我面的那日你就必死！」
Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”
29 摩西說：「你說得好！我必不再見你的面了。」
Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”
