1And Jehovah said to Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his bondmen, that I might do these my signs in their midst,
1And the Lord said to Moses: Go in to Pharao; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants: that I may work these my signs in him,
2and that thou mightest tell in the ears of thy son and thy son's son what I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
2And thou mayst tell in the ears of thy sons, and of thy grandsons, how often I have plagued the Egyptians, and wrought my signs amongst them: and you may know that I am the Lord.
3And Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah theGod of the Hebrews: How long dost thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
3Therefore Moses and Aaron went in to Pharao, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews: How long refusest thou to submit to me? let my people go, to sacrifice to me.
4For, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, I will to-morrow bring locusts into thy borders;
4But if thou resist, and wilt not let them go, behold I will bring in to-morrow the locusts into thy coasts;
5and they shall cover the face of the land, so that ye will not be able to see the land; and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which ye have remaining from the hail, and shall eat every tree which ye have growing in the field;
5To cover the face of the earth, that nothing thereof may appear, but that which the hail hath left may be eaten: for they shall feed upon all the trees that spring in the fields.
6and they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy bondmen, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which 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.
6And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of thy servants, and of all the Egyptians: such a number as thy fathers have not seen, nor thy grandfathers, from the time they were first upon the earth, until this present day. And he turned himself away, and went forth from Pharao.
7And Pharaoh's bondmen said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah theirGod: dost thou not yet know that Egypt is ruined?
7And Pharao's servants said to him: How long shall we endure this scandal? Iet the men go to sacrifice to the Lord their God. Dost thou not see that Egypt is undone?
8And Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh. And he said to them, Go, serve Jehovah yourGod. Who are they that shall go?
8And they called back Moses, and Aaron, to Pharao; and he said to them: Go, sacrifice to the Lord your God: who are they that shall go?
9And 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 have a feast of Jehovah.
9Moses said: We will go with our young and old, with our sons and daughters, with our sheep and herds: for it is the solemnity of the Lord our God.
10And he said to them, Let Jehovah be so with you, as I let you go, and your little ones: see that evil is before you!
10And Pharao answered: So be the Lord with you, as I shall let you and your children go: who can doubt but that you intend some great evil?
11Not so: go now, ye [that are] men, and serve Jehovah! for it is that ye have desired. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
11It shall not be so. but go ye men only, and sacrifice to the Lord: for this yourselves also desired. And immediately they were cast out from Pharao's presence.
12And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up over the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land — all that the hail hath left.
12And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch forth thy hand upon the land of Egypt unto the locust, that it come upon it, and devour every herb that is left after the hail.
13And Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
13And Moses stretched forth his rod upon the land of Egypt: and the Lord brought a burning wind all that day, and night; and when it was morning, the burning wind raised the locusts.
14And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt, very grievous; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them will be such.
14And they came up over the whole land of Egypt; and rested in all the coasts of the Egyptians, innumerable, the like as had not been before that time, nor shall be hereafter.
15And they covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left; and there remained not any green thing on the trees, and in the herbs of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.
15And they covered the whole face of the earth, wasting all things. And the grass of the earth was devoured, and what fruits soever were on the trees, which the hail had left; and there remained not any thing that was green on the trees, or in the herbs of the earth, in all Egypt.
16And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah yourGod, and against you.
16Wherefore Pharao in haste called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.
17And now, forgive, I pray you, my sin only this time, and intreat Jehovah yourGod that he may take away from me this death only!
17But now forgive me my sin this time also, and pray to the Lord your God, that he take away from me this death.
18And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated Jehovah.
18And Moses going forth from the presence of Pharao, prayed to the Lord:
19And Jehovah turned a very powerful west wind, which took away the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea: there remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
19And he made a very strong wind to blow from the west, and it took the locusts and cast them into the Red Sea: there remained not so much as one in all the coasts of Egypt.
20And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
20And the Lord hardened Pharao's heart, neither did he let the children of Israel go.
21And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward the heavens, that there may be darkness in the land of Egypt — so that one may feel darkness.
21And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch out thy hand towards heaven: and may there be darkness upon the land of Egypt so thick that it may be felt.
22And Moses stretched out his hand toward the heavens; and there was a thick darkness throughout the land of Egypt three days:
22And Moses stretched forth his hand towards heaven: and there came horrible darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
23they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place, for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
23No man saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was: but wheresoever the children of Israel dwelt, there was light.
24And Pharaoh called Moses and said, Go, serve Jehovah; only, let your flocks and your herds remain; let your little ones also go with you.
24And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said to them: Go, sacrifice to the Lord: let your sheep only, and herds remain, let your children go with you.
25And Moses said, Thou must give also sacrifices and burnt-offerings into our hands, that we may sacrifice to Jehovah ourGod.
25Moses said: Thou shalt give us also sacrifices and burnt-offerings, to the Lord our God.
26Our cattle also must go with us: there shall not a hoof be left behind; for we must take thereof to serve Jehovah ourGod; and we do not know with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come there.
26All the flocks shall go with us; there shall not a hoof remain of them: for they are necessary for the service of the Lord our God: especially as we know not what must be offered, till we come to the very place.
27But Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he would not let them go.
27And the Lord hardened Pharao's heart, and he would not let them go.
