Egzòd 11

1 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Yon malè anplis Mwen va fè rive sou Farawon, ak sou Égypte; apre sa li va kite nou sòti isit la. Lè li kite nou ale, anverite li va pouse nou ale sòti isit la nèt.

Then Yahweh said to Moses, “There is still one more plague that I will bring on Pharaoh and Egypt. After that, he will let you go from here. When he finally lets you go, he will drive you away completely.

2 Pale koulye a pou tout moun tande, ke chak gason mande vwazin li, e chak fanm vwazen pa li pou kèk bagay fèt an ajan ak bagay ki fèt an lò.”

Instruct the people that every man and woman is to ask of his or her neighbor for articles of silver and articles of gold.”

3 SENYÈ a te bay pèp la favè nan zye Ejipsyen yo. Anplis nonm nan, Moïse te byen estime nan peyi Égypte la, ni nan zye sèvitè a Farawon yo, ni nan zye a moun yo.

Now Yahweh had made the Egyptians eager to please the Israelites. Moreover, the man Moses was very impressive in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and the people of Egypt.

4 Moïse te di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Vè minwit M ap prale nan mitan Égypte la.

Moses said, “Yahweh says this: 'About midnight I will go throughout Egypt.

5 Epi tout nan premye ne nan peyi Égypte yo va mouri, soti nan premye ne Farawon ki chita sou twòn li a, jiska premye ne nan fi esklav ki dèyè wòch moulen yo; menm tout nan premye ne nan bèt yo tou.

All the firstborn in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the handmill grinding it, and to all the firstborn of the cattle.

6 Anplis de sa, va gen yon gran kri lamantasyon jan li pa t genyen avan, ak jan li p ap janm genyen ankò.

Then there will be a great wailing throughout all the land of Egypt, such as has never been nor ever will be again.

7 Men kont fis Israël yo, menm yon chen p ap jape, ni kont moun ni kont bèt, pou nou kapab konprann, jan SENYÈ a fè yon distenksyon antre Égypte avèk Israël.

But not even a dog will bark against any of the people of Israel, against either man or beast. In this way you will know that I am treating the Egyptians and the Israelites differently.'

8 “‘Tout sa yo, sèvitè pa w yo va vin bese ba devan m, e yo va di: ‘Ale deyò, ou menm avèk tout moun ki swiv ou yo, e apre sa, mwen va ale deyò.’” Epi li te sòti devan Farawon, ranpli avèk kòlè e byen cho.

All these servants of yours, Pharaoh, will come down to me and bow down to me. They will say, 'Go, you and all the people who follow you!' After that I will go out.” Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.

9 Alò SENYÈ a te di a Moïse: “Farawon p ap koute ou, pou mèvèy Mwen yo kapab vin miltipliye nan peyi Égypte la.”

Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you. This is so that I will do many amazing things in the land of Egypt.”

10 Moïse avèk Aaron te fè tout mèvèy sa yo devan Farawon; malgre sa, SENYÈ a te fè kè l di, e li pa t kite fis Israël yo sòti deyò peyi li a.

Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and Pharaoh did not let the people of Israel go out of his land.
