| [1]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 said unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might show these My signs in the midst of them; |
[1]Again the Lord said unto Moses, Go to Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might work these my miracles in the midst of his realm, |
| [2]And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what I have wrought upon Egypt, and My signs which I have done among them; that ye may know that I am 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇.' |
[2]And that thou mayest declare in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have done in Egypt, and my miracles, which I have done among them: that ye may know that I am the Lord. |
| [3]And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him: 'Thus saith 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, the God of the Hebrews: How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before Me? let My people go, that they may serve Me. |
[3]Then Moses and Aaron came unto Pharaoh, and they said unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me. |
| [4]Else, if thou refuse to let My people go, behold, to-morrow will I bring locusts into thy border; |
[4]But if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow will I bring grasshoppers into thy coasts. |
| [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; |
[5]And they shall cover the face of the earth, that a man cannot see the earth: and they shall eat the residue which remaineth unto you, and hath escaped from the hail: and they shall eat all your trees that bud in the field. |
| [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. |
[6]And they shall fill thine houses, and all thy servant's houses, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the time they were upon the earth unto this day. So he returned, and went out from Pharaoh. |
| [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 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 their God, knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?' |
[7]Then Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall he be an offense unto us? Let the men go, that they may serve the Lord their God: wilt thou first know that Egypt is destroyed? |
| [8]And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh; and he said unto them: 'Go, serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 your God; but who are they that shall go?' |
[8]So 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? |
| [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 we will go; for we must hold a feast unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇.' |
[9]And Moses answered, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our sheep and with our cattle will we go: for we must celebrate a feast unto the Lord. |
| [10]And he said unto them: 'So be 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones; see ye that evil is before your face. |
[10]And he said unto them, Let the Lord so be with you, as I will let you go and your children: behold, for evil is before your face. |
| [11]Not so; go now ye that are men, and serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; for that is what ye desire.' And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence. |
[11]It shall not be so: now go ye that are men, and serve the Lord: for that was your desire. Then they were thrust out from Pharaoh's presence. |
| [12]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 said unto Moses: 'Stretch out thy 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.' |
[12]After, the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand upon the land of Egypt for the grasshoppers, that they may come upon the land of Egypt, and eat all the herbs of the land, even all that the hail hath left. |
| [13]And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 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. |
[13]Then Moses stretched forth his rod upon the land of Egypt: and the Lord brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night: and in the morning the east wind brought the grasshoppers. |
| [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. |
[14]So the grasshoppers went up upon all the land of Egypt, and remained in all quarters of Egypt: so grievous grasshoppers, like to these were never before, neither after them shall be such. |
| [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. |
[15]For they covered all the face of the earth, so that the land was dark: and they did eat all the herbs of the land, and all the fruits of the trees, which the hail had left, so that there was no green thing left upon the trees, nor among the herbs of the field throughout all the land of Egypt. |
| [16]Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said: 'I have sinned against 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 your God, and against you. |
[16]Therefore Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you. |
| [17]Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 your God, that He may take away from me this death only.' |
[17]And now forgive me my sin only this once, and pray unto the Lord your God, that he may take away from me this death only. |
| [18]And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[18]Moses then went out from Pharaoh, and prayed unto the Lord. |
| [19]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 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. |
[19]And the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind, and took away the grasshoppers, and violently cast them into the Red Sea, so that there remained not one grasshopper in all the coast of Egypt. |
| [20]But 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go. |
[20]But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go. |
| [21]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 said unto Moses: 'Stretch out thy hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.' |
[21]Again the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be upon the land of Egypt darkness, even darkness that may be felt. |
| [22]And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days; |
[22]Then Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven, and there was a black darkness in all the land of Egypt three days. |
| [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. |
[23]No man saw another, neither rose up from the place where he was for three days: but all the children of Israel had light where they dwelt. |
| [24]And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said: 'Go ye, serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed; let your little ones also go with you.' |
[24]Then Pharaoh called for Moses and said, Go, serve the Lord: only your sheep and your cattle shall abide, and your children shall go with you. |
| [25]And Moses said: 'Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, that we may sacrifice unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God. |
[25]And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices, and burnt offerings that we may do sacrifice unto the Lord our God. |
| [26]Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God; and we know not with what we must serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, until we come thither.' |
[26]Therefore our cattle also shall go with us: there shall not an hoof be left, for thereof must we take to serve the Lord our God: neither do we know how we shall serve the Lord, until we come thither. |
| [27]But 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go. |
[27](But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go) |
| [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.' |
[28]And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me: look thou see my face no more: for when so ever thou comest in my sight, thou shalt die. |
| [29]And Moses said: 'Thou hast spoken well; I will see thy face again no more.' |
[29]Then Moses said, Thou hast said well: from henceforth will I see thy face no more. |
