< Exodus 10 >

1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs in the midst of them:
Et dixit Dominus ad Moysen: Ingredere ad Pharaonem: ego enim induravi cor eius, et servorum illius: ut faciam signa mea haec in eo,
2 and that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son’s son, what things I have wrought upon Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know that I am the LORD.
et narres in auribus filii tui, et nepotum tuorum, quoties contriverim Aegyptios, et signa mea fecerim in eis: et sciatis quia ego Dominus.
3 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
Introierunt ergo Moyses et Aaron ad Pharaonem, et dixerunt ei: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Hebraeorum: Usquequo non vis subiici mihi? dimitte populum meum, ut sacrificet mihi.
4 Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow will I bring locusts into thy border:
Sin autem resistis, et non vis dimittere eum: ecce ego inducam cras locustam in fines tuos:
5 and they shall cover the face of the earth, that one shall not be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:
quae operiet superficiem terrae, ne quidquam eius appareat, sed comedatur quod residuum fuerit grandini. corrodet enim omnia ligna quae germinant in agris.
6 and thy houses shall be filled, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither thy fathers nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
Et implebunt domos tuas, et servorum tuorum, et omnium Aegyptiorum: quantam non viderunt patres tui, et avi, ex quo orti sunt super terram, usque in praesentem diem. Avertitque se, et egressus est a Pharaone.
7 And Pharaoh’s servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
Dixerunt autem servi Pharaonis ad eum: Usquequo patiemur hoc scandalum: dimitte homines, ut sacrificent Domino Deo suo. nonne vides quod perierit Aegyptus?
8 And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your God; but who are they that shall go?
Revocaveruntque Moysen, et Aaron ad Pharaonem: qui dixit eis: Ite, sacrificate Domino Deo vestro: quinam sunt qui ituri sunt?
9 And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the LORD.
Ait Moyses: Cum parvulis nostris, et senioribus pergemus, cum filiis et filiabus, cum ovibus et armentis: est enim sollemnitas Domini Dei nostri.
10 And he said unto them, So be the LORD with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.
Et respondit Pharao: Sic Dominus sit vobiscum, quo modo ego dimittam vos, et parvulos vestros, cui dubium est quod pessime cogitetis?
11 Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the LORD; for that is what ye desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
Non fiet ita, sed ite tantum viri, et sacrificate Domino: hoc enim et ipsi petistis. Statimque eiecti sunt de conspectu Pharaonis.
12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.
Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Extende manum tuam super Terram Aegypti ad locustam, ut ascendat super eam, et devoret omnem herbam quae residua fuerit grandini.
13 And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all the night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
Et extendit Moyses virgam super terram Aegypti: et Dominus induxit ventum urentem tota die illa, et nocte: et mane facto, ventus urens levavit locustas.
14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt; very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
Quae ascenderunt super universam Terram Aegypti: et sederunt in cunctis finibus Aegyptiorum innumerabiles, quales ante illud tempus non fuerant, nec postea futurae sunt.
15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
Operueruntque universam superficiem terrae, vastantes omnia. Devorata est igitur herba terrae, et quidquid pomorum in arboribus fuit, quae grando dimiserat: nihilque omnino virens relictum est in lignis, et in herbis terrae, in cuncta Aegypto.
16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
Quam ob rem festinus Pharao vocavit Moysen et Aaron, et dixit eis: Peccavi in Dominum Deum vestrum, et in vos.
17 Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
Sed nunc dimittite peccatum mihi etiam hac vice, et rogate Dominum Deum vestrum, ut auferat a me mortem istam.
18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.
Egressusque Moyses de conspectu Pharaonis, oravit Dominum.
19 And the LORD turned an exceeding strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea; there remained not one locust in all the border of Egypt.
Qui flare fecit ventum ab occidente vehementissimum, et arreptam locustam proiecit in Mare rubrum: non remansit ne una quidem in cunctis finibus Aegypti.
20 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
Et induravit Dominus cor Pharaonis, nec dimisit filios Israel.
21 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Extende manum tuam in caelum: et sint tenebrae super Terram Aegypti tam densae, ut palpari queant.
22 And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
Extenditque Moyses manum in caelum: et factae sunt tenebrae horribiles in universa Terra Aegypti tribus diebus.
23 they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Nemo vidit fratrem suum, nec movit se de loco in quo erat: ubicumque autem habitabant filii Israel, lux erat.
24 And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.
Vocavitque Pharao Moysen et Aaron, et dixit eis: Ite, sacrificate Domino: oves tantum vestrae, et armenta remaneant, parvuli vestri eant vobiscum.
25 And Moses said, Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.
Ait Moyses: Hostias quoque et holocausta dabis nobis, quae offeramus Domino Deo nostro.
26 Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.
Cuncti greges pergent nobiscum: non remanebit ex eis ungula: quae necessaria sunt in cultum Domini Dei nostri: praesertim cum ignoremus quid debeat immolari, donec ad ipsum locum perveniamus.
27 But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let them go.
Induravit autem Dominus cor Pharaonis, et noluit dimittere eos.
28 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
Dixitque Pharao ad Moysen: Recede a me, et cave ne ultra videas faciem meam: quocumque die apparueris mihi, morieris.
29 And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well; I will see thy face again no more.
Respondit Moyses: Ita fiet ut locutus es, non videbo ultra faciem tuam.
