Exodus 8

قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ادْخُلْ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدُونِي.
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَأْبَى أَنْ تُطْلِقَهُمْ فَهَا أَنَا أَضْرِبُ جَمِيعَ تُخُومِكَ بِالضَّفَادِعِ.
And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
فَيَفِيضُ النَّهْرُ ضَفَادِعَ. فَتَصْعَدُ وَتَدْخُلُ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ وَإِلَى مِخْدَعِ فِرَاشِكَ وَعَلَى سَرِيرِكَ وَإِلَى بُيُوتِ عَبِيدِكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَإِلَى تَنَانِيرِكَ وَإِلَى مَعَاجِنِكَ.
And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَبِيدِكَ تَصْعَدُ الضَّفَادِعُ».
And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِهَارُونَ: مُدَّ يَدَكَ بِعَصَاكَ عَلَى الأَنْهَارِ وَالسَّوَاقِي وَالآجَامِ، وَأَصْعِدِ الضَّفَادِعَ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ».
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
فَمَدَّ هَارُونُ يَدَهُ عَلَى مِيَاهِ مِصْرَ، فَصَعِدَتِ الضَّفَادِعُ وَغَطَّتْ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ.
And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
وَفَعَلَ كَذلِكَ الْعَرَّافُونَ بِسِحْرِهِمْ وَأَصْعَدُوا الضَّفَادِعَ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
فَدَعَا فِرْعَوْنُ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَقَالَ: «صَلِّيَا إِلَى الرَّبِّ لِيَرْفَعَ الضَّفَادِعَ عَنِّي وَعَنْ شَعْبِي فَأُطْلِقَ الشَّعْبَ لِيَذْبَحُوا لِلرَّبِّ».
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the LORD.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِفِرْعَوْنَ: «عَيِّنْ لِي مَتَى أُصَلِّي لأَجْلِكَ وَلأَجْلِ عَبِيدِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ لِقَطْعِ الضَّفَادِعِ عَنْكَ وَعَنْ بُيُوتِكَ. وَلكِنَّهَا تَبْقَى فِي النَّهْرِ».
And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, that they may remain in the river only?
فَقَالَ: «غَدًا». فَقَالَ: «كَقَوْلِكَ. لِكَيْ تَعْرِفَ أَنْ لَيْسَ مِثْلُ الرَّبِّ إِلهِنَا.
And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word: that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the LORD our God.
فَتَرْتَفِعُ الضَّفَادِعُ عَنْكَ وَعَنْ بُيُوتِكَ وَعَبِيدِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ، وَلكِنَّهَا تَبْقَى فِي النَّهْرِ».
And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.
ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَصَرَخَ مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ الضَّفَادِعِ الَّتِي جَعَلَهَا عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ،
And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.
فَفَعَلَ الرَّبُّ كَقَوْلِ مُوسَى. فَمَاتَتِ الضَّفَادِعُ مِنَ الْبُيُوتِ وَالدُّورِ وَالْحُقُولِ.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
وَجَمَعُوهَا كُوَمًا كَثِيرَةً حَتَّى أَنْتَنَتِ الأَرْضُ.
And they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى فِرْعَوْنُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ حَصَلَ الْفَرَجُ أَغْلَظَ قَلْبَهُ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمَا، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ.
But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِهَارُونَ: مُدَّ عَصَاكَ وَاضْرِبْ تُرَابَ الأَرْضِ لِيَصِيرَ بَعُوضًا فِي جَمِيعِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ».
And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
فَفَعَلاَ كَذلِكَ. مَدَّ هَارُونُ يَدَهُ بِعَصَاهُ وَضَرَبَ تُرَابَ الأَرْضِ، فَصَارَ الْبَعُوضُ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَعَلَى الْبَهَائِمِ. كُلُّ تُرَابِ الأَرْضِ صَارَ بَعُوضًا فِي جَمِيعِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.
And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
وَفَعَلَ كَذلِكَ الْعَرَّافُونَ بِسِحْرِهِمْ لِيُخْرِجُوا الْبَعُوضَ فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا. وَكَانَ الْبَعُوضُ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَعَلَى الْبَهَائِمِ.
And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
فَقَالَ الْعَرَّافُونَ لِفِرْعَوْنَ: «هذَا إِصْبَعُ اللهِ». وَلكِنِ اشْتَدَّ قَلْبُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمِا، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ.
Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «بَكِّرْ فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَقِفْ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ. إِنَّهُ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الْمَاءِ. وَقُلْ لَهُ: هكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدُونِي.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ كُنْتَ لاَ تُطْلِقُ شَعْبِي، هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى عَبِيدِكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَلَى بُيُوتِكَ الذُّبَّانَ، فَتَمْتَلِئُ بُيُوتُ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ ذُبَّانًا. وَأَيْضًا الأَرْضُ الَّتِي هُمْ عَلَيْهَا.
Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
وَلكِنْ أُمَيِّزُ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَرْضَ جَاسَانَ حَيْثُ شَعْبِي مُقِيمٌ حَتَّى لاَ يَكُونُ هُنَاكَ ذُبَّانٌ. لِكَيْ تَعْلَمَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ فِي الأَرْضِ.
And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the LORD in the midst of the earth.
وَأَجْعَلُ فَرْقًا بَيْنَ شَعْبِي وَشَعْبِكَ. غَدًا تَكُونُ هذِهِ الآيَةُ».
And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be.
فَفَعَلَ الرَّبُّ هكَذَا، فَدَخَلَتْ ذُبَّانٌ كَثِيرَةٌ إِلَى بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَبُيُوتِ عَبِيدِهِ. وَفِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ خَرِبَتِ الأَرْضُ مِنَ الذُّبَّانِ.
And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.
فَدَعَا فِرْعَوْنُ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَقَالَ: «اذْهَبُوا اذْبَحُوا لإِلهِكُمْ فِي هذِهِ الأَرْضِ».
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «لاَ يَصْلَحُ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ هكَذَا، لأَنَّنَا إِنَّمَا نَذْبَحُ رِجْسَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلهِنَا. إِنْ ذَبَحْنَا رِجْسَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِهِمْ أَفَلاَ يَرْجُمُونَنَا؟
And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
نَذْهَبُ سَفَرَ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَنَذْبَحُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلهِنَا كَمَا يَقُولُ لَنَا».
We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.
فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «أَنَا أُطْلِقُكُمْ لِتَذْبَحُوا لِلرَّبِّ إِلهِكُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَلكِنْ لاَ تَذْهَبُوا بَعِيدًا. صَلِّيَا لأَجْلِي».
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «هَا أَنَا أَخْرُجُ مِنْ لَدُنْكَ وَأُصَلِّي إِلَى الرَّبِّ، فَتَرْتَفِعُ الذُّبَّانُ عَنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَبِيدِهِ وَشَعْبِهِ غَدًا. وَلكِنْ لاَ يَعُدْ فِرْعَوْنُ يُخَاتِلُ حَتَّى لاَ يُطْلِقَ الشَّعْبَ لِيَذْبَحَ لِلرَّبِّ».
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
فَخَرَجَ مُوسَى مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَصَلَّى إِلَى الرَّبِّ.
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD.
فَفَعَلَ الرَّبُّ كَقَوْلِ مُوسَى، فَارْتَفَعَ الذُّبَّانُ عَنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَبِيدِهِ وَشَعْبِهِ. لَمْ تَبْقَ وَاحِدَةٌ.
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
وَلكِنْ أَغْلَظَ فِرْعَوْنُ قَلْبَهُ هذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ أَيْضًا فَلَمْ يُطْلِقِ الشَّعْبَ.
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
