1  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand shall he let them go, and by a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.'

1  And the Lord said to Moses, Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharao; for he shall send them forth with a mighty hand, and with a high arm shall he cast them out of his land.

2  And God spoke unto Moses, and said unto him: 'I am YHWH;

2  And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “I am the Lord,

3  and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name Jehovah I made Me not known to them.

3  And I appeared to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, being their God, but I did not manifest to them my name Lord.

3  who appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as Almighty God. And I did not reveal to them my name: ADONAI.

4  And I have also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they sojourned.

4  And I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of the Chananites, the land wherein they sojourned, in which also they dwelt as strangers.

4  And I formed a covenant with them, in order to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojourning, in which they were newcomers.

5  And moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered My covenant.

5  And I hearkened to the groaning of the children of Israel (the affliction with which the Egyptians enslave them) and I remembered the covenant with you.

5  I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, with which the Egyptians have oppressed them. And I have remembered my covenant.

6  Wherefore say unto the children of Israel: I am YHWH, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments;

6  For this reason, say to the sons of Israel: I am the Lord who will lead you away from the work house of the Egyptians, and rescue you from servitude, and also redeem you with an exalted arm and great judgments.

7  and I will take you to Me for a people, and I will be to you a God; and ye shall know that I am YHWH your God, who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

8  And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning which I lifted up My hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for a heritage: I am YHWH.'

8  and who brought you into the land, over which I lifted up my hand in order to grant it to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And I will grant it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.”

9  And Moses spoke so unto the children of Israel; but they hearkened not unto Moses for impatience of spirit, and for cruel bondage.

9  And so, Moses explained all these things to the sons of Israel, who did not agree with him, because of their anguish of spirit and very difficult work.

9  And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage. And they are saying to Moses: leave us please and we shall serve to Egyptians because it is good for us to be servants of Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.

10  And YHWH spoke unto Moses, saying

10  And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

11  'Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.'

11  “Enter and speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, so that he may release the sons of Israel from his land.”

12  And Moses spoke before YHWH, saying: 'Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised lips?'

12  Moses responded in the sight the Lord: “Behold, the sons of Israel do not listen to me. And how will Pharaoh listen to me, especially since I am of uncircumcised lips?”

12  But Moses said to the LORD, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened to me; how then shall Pharaoh listen to me, for I am a stutterer?

13  And YHWH spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the children of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

13  And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, and he gave them a commandment for the sons of Israel, and for Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, that they should lead the sons of Israel away from the land of Egypt.

26  These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom YHWH said: 'Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their hosts.'

26  This is Aaron and Moses, whom God told to bring out the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt with their forces.

27  These are they that spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt. These are that Moses and Aaron.

27  It was they who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt: Moses and Aaron.

28  And it came to pass on the day when YHWH spoke unto Moses in the land of Egypt,

28  in the day in which the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt;

29  that YHWH spoke unto Moses, saying: 'I am the YHWH; speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I speak unto thee.'

29  then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, I am the Lord: speak to Pharao king of Egypt whatsoever I say to thee.

29  And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “I am the Lord. Speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, all that I speak to you.”

30  And Moses said before YHWH: 'Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?'

30  And Moses said in the sight of the Lord: “Lo, I am of uncircumcised lips, how will Pharaoh listen to me?”

30  And Moses said to the LORD, My tongue stutters; how shall Pharaoh hearken to me?

7:1  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'See, I have set thee in God's stead to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

1  And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, I have made thee a god to Pharao, and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

7:2  Thou shalt speak all that I command thee; and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

2  You will speak to him all that I command you. And he will speak to Pharaoh, so that he may release the sons of Israel from his land.

7:3  And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.

3  But I will harden his heart, and I will multiply my signs and wonders in the land of Egypt,

7:4  But Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, and I will lay My hand upon Egypt, and bring forth My hosts, My people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt, by great judgments.

4  And Pharao will not hearken to you, and I will lay my hand upon Egypt; and will bring out my people the children of Israel with my power out of the land of Egypt with great vengeance.

4  and he will not listen to you. And I will send my hand over Egypt, and I will lead my army and my people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt, through very great judgments.

7:5  And the Egyptians shall know that I am YHWH, when I stretch forth My hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.'

5  And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, stretching out my hand upon Egypt, and I will bring out the children of Israel out of the midst of them.

7:6  And Moses and Aaron did so; as YHWH commanded them, so did they.

6  And so, Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And so it was done.

7:7  And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spoke unto Pharaoh.

7  And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron his brother was eighty-three years old, when he spoke to Pharao.

7:8  And YHWH spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying

8  And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,

7:9  'When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying: Show a wonder for you; then thou shalt say unto Aaron: Take thy rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.'

9  Now if Pharao should speak to you, saying, Give us a sign or a wonder, then shalt thou say to thy brother Aaron, Take thy rod and cast it upon the ground before Pharao, and before his servants, and it shall become a serpent.

9  “When Pharaoh will say to you, ‘Show signs,’ you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will be turned into a snake.’ ”

7:10  And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so, as YHWH had commanded; and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

10  And so Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they did just as the Lord had commanded. And Aaron took the staff in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and it was turned into a snake.

10  So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh, and they did as the LORD had commanded; and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and before his noblemen, and it became a serpent.

7:11  Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers; and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did in like manner with their secret arts.

11  But Pharao called together the wise men of Egypt, and the sorcerers, and the charmers also of the Egyptians did likewise with their sorceries.

11  Then Pharaoh called the wise men and the sorcerers. And they also, by Egyptian incantations and certain secrets, did similarly.

7:12  For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents; but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

12  And they cast down each his rod, and they became serpents, but the rod of Aaron swallowed up their rods.

12  And each one cast down their staffs, and they were turned into serpents. But the staff of Aaron devoured their staffs.

7:13  And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as YHWH had spoken.

13  and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord charged them.

13  However Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and would not let them go, as the LORD had said.

7:14  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Pharaoh's heart is stubborn, he refuseth to let the people go.

14  and the Lord said to Moses, The heart of Pharao is made hard, so that he should not let the people go.

14  Then the Lord said to Moses: “The heart of Pharaoh has been hardened; he is not willing to release the people.

7:15  Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the river's brink to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thy hand.

15  Go to him in the morning; behold, he will go out to the waters. And you will stand to meet him above the bank of the river. And you will take, in your hand, the staff that was turned into a serpent.

15  Go to Pharaoh in the morning; behold, he goes out to his daily duty; and you stand toward him by the river's brink and wait; and take in your hand the staff which was turned into a serpent.

7:16  And thou shalt say unto him: YHWH, the God of the Hebrews, hath sent me unto thee, saying: Let My people go, that they may serve Me in the wilderness; and, behold, hitherto thou hast not hearkened;

16  And you will say to him: ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews sent me to you, saying: Release my people in order to sacrifice to me in the desert. And even until the present time, you were not willing to listen.

16  And you shall say to him, The LORD God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, Let my people go that they may serve me in the wilderness; and, behold, hitherto you have not listened.

7:17  thus saith YHWH: In this thou shalt know that I am the YHWH--behold, I will smite with the rod that is in my hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

7:18  And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink water from the river.'

18  Also, the fishes that are in the river will die, and the waters will be polluted, and the Egyptians will be afflicted when they drink the water of the river.’ ”

18  And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink of the water of the river. And they are coming, Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh and they are saying to him: LORD of Hebrews send us to you to say: let people go with me and they shall serve me in the wilderness. And behold, you did not listen until now. Thus says the LORD: in this you shall know that I'm the LORD. Behold, I'm smiting with rod which is in hand of me over waters which are in the waterway, and they are turning into blood. And the fish, which is in the waterway, shall die. And the waterway stinks, and they are disgusted the Egyptians to drink from waters of the waterway.

7:19  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'

7:20  And Moses and Aaron did so, as YHWH commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

20  And Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had instructed. And lifting up the staff, he struck the water of the river in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants. And it was turned into blood.

7:21  And the fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul, and the Egyptians could not drink water from the river; and the blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.

21  And the fishes that were in the river died, and the river was polluted, and the Egyptians were not able to drink the water of the river, and there was blood throughout the entire land of Egypt.

7:22  And the magicians of Egypt did in like manner with their secret arts; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as YHWH had spoken.

22  And the charmers also of the Egyptians did so with their sorceries; and the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, even as the Lord said.

22  And the sorcerers of the Egyptians, with their incantations, did similarly. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.

7:23  And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he lay even this to heart.

23  And Pharao turned and entered into his house, nor did he fix his attention even on this thing.

23  And he turned himself away, and he entered his house, neither did he apply his heart to this turn of events.

7:24  And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.

24  Then all the Egyptians dug along the borders of the river for water to drink. For they were not able to drink from the water of the river.

7:25  And seven days were fulfilled, after that YHWH had smitten the river.

8:2  And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.

2  But if you are not willing to release them, behold, I will strike all your coasts with frogs.

8:3  And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy bed-chamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs.

3  And the river will seethe with frogs, which will go up and enter into your house, and your bedroom, and upon your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your people, and into your ovens, and into the remains of your foods.

8:4  And the frogs shall come up both upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.'

4  And to you, and to your people, and to all your servants, the frogs will enter.’ ”

Ex7:29  And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants. And they are coming, Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, and they are saying to him: Thus says the LORD: let go people with me, and they shall serve me. And if you are refusing to let them go, behold, I am smiting all boundary of you with frogs. And swarms the waterway with frogs and they will rise and come in houses of you, and in chambers of you, beds of you, and over couches of you. And in houses servants of you and people of you, and in furnaces of you, and in kneading troughs of you, and beds, and in people, and in all servants of you, they will rise the frogs.

8:5  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch forth thy hand with thy rod over the rivers, over the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.'

5  And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron thy brother, Stretch forth with the hand thy rod over the rivers, and over the canals, and over the pools, and bring up the frogs.

5  And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, and over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt. And he is saying Moses to Aaron: stretch with your hand and in rod of you, and they rise frogs over land of Egypt

8:6  And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.

8:7  And the magicians did in like manner with their secret arts, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.

7  And the charmers of the Egyptians also did likewise with their sorceries, and brought up the frogs on the land of Egypt.

7  Then the sorcerers also, by their incantations, did similarly, and they brought forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.

8:8  Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said: 'Entreat YHWH, that He take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice unto the YHWH.'

8  And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said, Pray for me to the Lord, and let him take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will send them away, and they shall sacrifice to the Lord.

8  But Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “Pray to the Lord, so as to take away the frogs from me and from my people. And I will release the people, so as to sacrifice to the Lord.”

8:9  And Moses said unto Pharaoh: 'Have thou this glory over me; against what time shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?'

9  And Moses said to Pharaoh: “Appoint for me a time, when I should petition on behalf of you, and your servants, and your people, so that the frogs may be driven away from you, and from your house, and from your servants, and from your people, and so that they may remain only in the river.”

9  And Moses said to Pharaoh, Appoint a time; when shall I pray for you and for your servants and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your house?

8:10  And he said: 'Against to-morrow.' And he said: 'Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like unto YHWH our God.

10  And he said, On the morrow: he said therefore, As thou has said; that thou mayest know, that there is no other God but the Lord.

10  And he responded, “Tomorrow.” Then he said, “I will act according to your word, so that you may know that there is no one like the Lord our God.

8:11  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.'

11  And the frogs will withdraw from you, and from your house, and from your servants, and from your people. And they will remain only in the river.”

8:12  And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried unto YHWH concerning the frogs, which He had brought upon Pharaoh.

8:13  And YHWH did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.

13  And the Lord did as Moses said, and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields.

13  And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died that were in the houses and in the courtyards and in the fields.

8:14  And they gathered them together in heaps; and the land stank.

8:15  But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as YHWH had spoken.

15  And when Pharao saw that there was relief, his heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as the Lord spoke.

15  Then Pharaoh, seeing that relief had been provided, hardened his own heart, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.

8:16  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the earth, that it may become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.'

16  And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy rod with thy hand and smite the dust of the earth; and there shall be lice both upon man, and upon quadrupeds, and in all the land of Egypt.

8:17  And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast; all the dust of the earth became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.

17  So Aaron stretched out his rod with his hand, and smote the dust of the earth; and the lice were on men and on quadrupeds, and in all the dust of the earth there were lice.

8:18  And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring forth gnats, but they could not; and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast.

18  And the charmers also did so with their sorceries, to bring forth the louse, and they could not. And the lice were both on the men and on the quadrupeds.

18  And the sorcerers, with their incantations, did similarly, in order to bring forth stinging insects, but they were not able. And there were stinging insects, as much on men as on beasts.

8:19  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 YHWH had spoken.

19  So the charmers said to Pharao, This is the finger of God. But the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord said.

19  And the sorcerers said to Pharaoh: “This is the finger of God.” And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord had instructed.

8:20  And YHWH 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 YHWH: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

20  And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao: and behold, he will go forth to the water, and thou shalt say to him, These things says the Lord: Send away my people, that they may serve me in the wilderness.

20  The Lord also said to Moses: “Arise at first light, and stand in the sight of Pharaoh, for he will go out to the waters. And you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord: Release my people to sacrifice to me.

8:21  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.

21  And if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I send upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and upon your houses, the dog-fly; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with the dog-fly, even throughout the land upon which they are.

21  But if you will not release them, behold, I will send upon you, and upon your servants, and upon your people, and into your houses, diverse kinds of flies. And the houses of the Egyptians will be filled with diverse kinds of flies, as well as the whole land in which they will be.

8:22  And I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end that thou mayest know that I am YHWH in the midst of the earth.

22  and I will distinguish marvellously in that day the land of Gesem, on which my people dwell, in which the dog-fly shall not be: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord the God of all the earth.

22  And in that day, I will cause a miracle in the land of Goshen, where my people are, so that flies will not be there. And you will know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.

8:23  And I will put a division between My people and thy people--by to-morrow shall this sign be.'

23  And I will put a difference between my people and thy people, and on the morrow shall this be on the land. And the Lord did thus.

23  And I will put a division between my people and thy people: tomorrow shall this sign be. And they are coming Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, and they are saying to him: Thus says LORD: let my people go and they shall serve me. And that if you are not letting my people go, behold, I send in you, and in servants of you, and in people of you, and in houses of you the swarm. And they fill be filled houses of Egypt with swarm, and moreover the land which is theirs. And I will distinguish in this day with the land Goshen where are my people so that there is no swarm, so that you know that I'am the LORD within the land. And I will place the divisions between my people and your people. Tomorrow they will happen these signs.

8:24  And YHWH did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses; and in all the land of Egypt the land was ruined by reason of the swarms of flies.

24  And the dog-fly came in abundance into the houses of Pharao, and into the houses of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt; and the land was destroyed by the dog-fly.

24  And the Lord did so. And there came very grievous flies into the houses of Pharaoh and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt. And the land was polluted, in this way, by the flies.

8:25  And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said: 'Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.'

25  Then Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said to them, Go, sacrifice to your God within the land.

8:26  And Moses said: 'It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to YHWH our God; lo, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us?

26  And Moses said, It is not proper to do so; for we shall sacrifice to the LORD our God some of the animals that are an abomination to the Egyptians. And if we should sacrifice animals that are idols before Egyptian eyes, they would stone us.

8:27  We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to YHWH our God, as He shall command us.'

27  We will go a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as the Lord said to us.

8:28  And Pharaoh said: 'I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to YHWH your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away; entreat for me.'

8:29  And Moses said: 'Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat YHWH that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the YHWH.'

29  And Moses said, I then will go forth from thee and pray to God, and the dog-fly shall depart both from thy servants, and from thy people to-morrow. Do not thou, Pharao, deceive again, so as not to send the people away to do sacrifice to the Lord.

29  And Moses said, Behold, I go out from your presence and I will pray before the LORD and he will cause the swarms of flies to depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more by refusing to allow the people to go to sacrifice to the LORD.

8:30  And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated YHWH.

30  And Moses, departing from Pharaoh, prayed to the Lord.

30  So Moses went out from the presence of Pharaoh and prayed before the LORD.

8:31  And YHWH 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.

31  And the Lord did as Moses said, and removed the dog-fly from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people, and there was not one left.

31  And he acted according to his word. And he took away the flies from Pharaoh, and from his servants, and from his people. There was not even one left behind.

8:32  And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go.

32  And Pharao hardened his heart, even on this occasion, and he would not send the people away.

32  And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, so that, even at this turn, he would not release the people.

9:1  Then YHWH said unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him: Thus saith the YHWH, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

1  And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him, These things saith the Lord God of the Hebrews; Send my people away that they may serve me.

1  Then the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh, and say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people, to sacrifice to me.

9:2  For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,

2  If however thou wilt not send my people away, but yet detainest them

2  But if you still refuse, and you retain them,

9:3  behold, the hand of YHWH is upon thy cattle which are in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the herds, and upon the flocks; there shall be a very grievous murrain.

3  behold, my hand will be over your fields. And a very grievous pestilence will be upon the horses, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the oxen, and the sheep.

3  Behold, the LORD will smite your cattle which are in the desert, the horses, the asses, the camels, the oxen, and the sheep; there shall be a very severe plague.

9:4  And YHWH shall make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; and there shall nothing die of all that belongeth to the children of Israel.'

4  And the Lord will cause a miracle between the possessions of Israel and the possessions of the Egyptians, so that nothing at all will perish from those things which belong to the sons of Israel.”

9:5  And YHWH appointed a set time, saying: 'Tomorrow the YHWH shall do this thing in the land.'

5  And God fixed a limit, saying, To-morrow the Lord will do this thing on the land.

5  And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land. And they are coming Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, and they are saying to him: Thus says LORD: these Hebrews are mine. Let my people go and they shall serve me. And that if you are refusing to let my people go, and you want to burden them more, behold, the hand of the LORD comes upon cattle of you that is in the field, in horses, and in donkeys, and in camels, and in flock: plague very heavy. And the LORD will distinguish between livestock of Israel and between livestock of Egypt, and not it shall die from plague all that belong to Israel. Tomorrow the LORD will do the plague this in the land.

9:6  And YHWH did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died; but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one.

6  And the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one.

6  Therefore, the Lord accomplished this word the next day. And all the animals of the Egyptians died. Yet truly, of the animals of the sons of Israel, nothing at all perished.

9:7  And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he did not let the people go.

7  And when Pharao saw, that of all the cattle of the children of Israel there died not one, the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he did not let the people go.

7  And Pharaoh sent to see; neither was there anything dead of those things that Israel possessed. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not release the people.

9:8  And YHWH said unto Moses and unto Aaron: 'Take to you handfuls of soot of the furnace, and let Moses throw it heavenward in the sight of Pharaoh.

8  And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, Take you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward heaven before Pharao, and before his servants.

8  And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron: “Take handfuls of ashes from the oven, and let Moses sprinkle it into the air, in the sight of Pharaoh.

9:9  And it shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt.'

9  And let it become dust over all the land of Egypt, and there shall be upon men and upon beasts sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts, in all the land of Egypt.

9  And let there be dust upon all the land of Egypt. For there will be sores and swelling pustules on men and on beasts, throughout the entire land of Egypt.”

9:10  And they took soot of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses threw it up heavenward; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man and upon beast.

10  So he took of the ashes of the furnace before Pharao, and Moses scattered it toward heaven, and it became sore blains breaking forth both on men and on beasts.

10  And they took ashes from the oven, and they stood in the sight of Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it in the air. And there came sores with swelling pustules on men and on beasts.

9:11  And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians.

11  And the sorcerers could not stand before Moses because of the sores, for the sores were on the sorcerers, and in all the land of Egypt.

11  Neither could the sorcerers stand in the sight of Moses, because of the sores that were on them and on all the land of Egypt.

9:12  And YHWH hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the YHWH had spoken unto Moses.

12  And the Lord hardened Pharao’s heart, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord appointed.

9:13  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him: Thus saith the YHWH, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

13  And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao; and thou shalt say to him, These things saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, Send away my people that they may serve me.

9:14  For I will this time send all My plagues upon thy person, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like Me in all the earth.

14  For at this present time do I send forth all my plagues into thine heart, and the heart of thy servants and of thy people; that thou mayest know that there is not another such as I in all the earth.

9:15  Surely now I had put forth My hand, and smitten thee and thy people with pestilence, and thou hadst been cut off from the earth.

15  For now I will stretch forth my hand and smite thee and kill thy people, and thou shalt be consumed from off the earth.

15  For now, extending my hand, I shall strike you and your people with pestilence, and you will perish from the earth.

9:16  But in very deed for this cause have I made thee to stand, to show thee My power, and that My name may be declared throughout all the earth.

16  And for this purpose hast thou been preserved, that I might display in thee my strength, and that my name might be published in all the earth.

16  But it was for this reason that I appointed you, so that I may reveal my strength by you, and so that my name may be described throughout all the earth.

9:17  As yet exaltest thou thyself against My people, that thou wilt not let them go?

17  Do you still retain my people, and are you still unwilling to release them?

9:18  Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.

18  Behold, to-morrow at this hour I will rain a very great hail, such as has not been in Egypt, from the time it was created until this day.

18  So then, tomorrow, at this same hour, I will rain down exceedingly great hail, such as has not been in Egypt from the day that it was founded, even until this present time.

9:19  Now therefore send, hasten in thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; for every man and beast that shall be found in the field, and shall not be brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die.'

19  Send therefore now, and gather thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field; for upon every man and beast which shall be found in the field, and shall not be brought home, the hail shall come down upon them, and they shall die. And they are coming Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, and they are saying to him: Thus says LORD: these Hebrews are mine. Let my people go and they shall serve me. That this time I shall send all plagues of me into heart of you, and in servants of you, and in people of you, so that you know that there is no one like me in all the earth. That if I were to send hand of me and smite you and your people in plague, you would be destroyed from the earth. But I'm keeping you to show you vigour of me, and so that numbered names of me in all the earth. Still you extol yourself in my people so as not to let them go, behold, I'm causing rain to come tomorrow; very heavy hail that have not been seen in Egypt from the day of her foundation and until now. And now send for cattle of you, and for all which is yours in the field. All humans and the beast that will be found in the field and not gathered into the houses, when hail falls on them, they will die.

9:20  He that feared the word of YHWH among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his cattle flee into the houses;

20  He of the servants of Pharao that feared the word of the Lord, gathered his cattle into the houses.

20  He who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh caused his servants and cattle to flee together into the houses.

9:21  and he that regarded not the word of YHWH left his servants and his cattle in the field.

21  And he that did not attend in his mind to the word of the Lord, left the cattle in the fields.

21  But he who neglected the word of the Lord released his servants and cattle into the fields.

9:22  And YHWH said unto Moses: 'Stretch forth thy hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man, and upon beast, and upon every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.'

22  And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out thine hand to heaven, and there shall be hail on all the land of Egypt, both on the men and on the cattle, and on all the herbage on the land.

9:23  And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven; and YHWH sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down unto the earth; and the YHWH caused to hail upon the land of Egypt.

23  And Moses extended his staff into the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and also lightning dashing across the earth. And the Lord rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.

9:24  So there was hail, and fire flashing up amidst the hail, very grievous, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

24  And the hail and intermingled fire drove on together. And it was of such magnitude as had never before been seen in the entire land of Egypt, from the time when that nation was formed.

9:25  And the hail smote throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.

25  And the hail struck, throughout all the land of Egypt, everything that was in the fields, from man even to beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field, and it broke every tree of the region.

9:26  Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.

9:27  And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them: 'I have sinned this time; YHWH is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.

9:28  Entreat YHWH, and let there be enough of these mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.'

28  Pray then for me to the Lord, and let him cause the thunderings of God to cease, and the hail and the fire, and I will send you forth and ye shall remain no longer.

9:29  And Moses said unto him: 'As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread forth my hands unto YHWH; the thunders shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know that the earth is the YHWH'S.

29  And Moses said to him, When I shall have departed from the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord, and the thunderings shall cease, and the hail and the rain shall be no longer, that thou mayest know that the earth is the Lord’s.

29  Moses said: “When I have departed from the city, I will extend my hands to the Lord, and the thunders will cease, and the hail will not be, so that you may know that the earth belongs to the Lord.

9:30  But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear YHWH God.'--

30  But I know that both you and your servants do not yet fear the Lord God.”

30  But as for you and your servants, I know that you have not yet feared the LORD God.

9:31  And the flax and the barley were smitten; for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was in bloom.

31  And so, the flax and the barley were damaged, because the barley was growing, and the flax was already developing grains.

9:32  But the wheat and the spelt were not smitten; for they ripen late.--

9:33  And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread forth his hands unto YHWH; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the earth.

33  And Moses, departing from Pharaoh out of the city, reached out his hands toward the Lord. And the thunders and hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the land.

9:34  And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.

34  Then Pharaoh, seeing that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders had ceased, added to his sin.

9:35  And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the children of Israel go; as YHWH had spoken by Moses.

35  And his heart was weighed down, along with that of his servants, and it was hardened exceedingly. Neither did he release the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses.

10:1  And YHWH 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  And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Go in to Pharao: for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that these signs may come upon them; in order

10:2  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 YHWH.'

2  And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD. God of you. And say to Pharaoh: Thus says the LORD:These Hebrews are mine. Until death you will refuse to answer before faces of me? Let my people go and they shall serve me. Because if you refuse to let people go with me, behold, I will bring tomorrow locusts in boundary of you. And it will cover all the earth and the earth will not be seen, and it will eat up all remains from the hail, and it will eat all herbage of the earth, and all fruit of the tree of the field. And it will fill houses you, and houses of your servants, and houses of all Egypt. And it will be such as your fathers and fathers of your fathers have not seen from day they came to the land and until now.

10:3  And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him: 'Thus saith YHWH, 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  Therefore, Moses and Aaron entered to Pharaoh, and they said to him: “Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: How long will you be unwilling to be subject to me? Release my people to sacrifice to me.

10:4  Else, if thou refuse to let My people go, behold, to-morrow will I bring locusts into thy border;

4  But if thou wilt not send my people away, behold, at this hour to-morrow I will bring an abundance of locusts upon all thy coasts.

4  But if you resist, and you are unwilling to release them, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your borders.

10:5  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;

10:6  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 will fill your houses, and those of your servants and of all the Egyptians: so many as your fathers and ancestors have not seen, from the time that they rose up over the earth, even until this present day.” And he turned himself away, and he departed from Pharaoh.

6  And they shall fill your houses and the houses of your servants and the houses of all the Egyptians such as neither your fathers nor your grand fathers have seen, from the day that they were upon the earth even to this day. And they turned, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

10:7  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 YHWH their God, knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?'

7  Then the servants of Pharaoh said to him: “How long must we endure this scandal? Release the men, in order to sacrifice to the Lord their God. Do you not see that Egypt is perishing?”

10:8  And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh; and he said unto them: 'Go, serve YHWH your God; but who are they that shall go?'

8  And they called back Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh, who said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord your God. Who are they who would go?”

8  So Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh; and he said to them, Go, serve before the LORD your God; but who are they that are going?

10:9  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 YHWH.'

9  And Moses said, We will go with the young and the old, with our sons, and daughters, and sheep, and oxen, for it is a feast of the Lord.

9  Moses said: “We will travel with our little ones and our elderly, with our sons and daughters, with our sheep and herds. For it is a solemnity of the Lord our God.”

10:10  And he said unto them: 'So be YHWH with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones; see ye that evil is before your face.

10  And Pharaoh responded: “So let the Lord be with you. But if I were to release you and your little ones, who would doubt that you intend some great wickedness?

10  And Pharaoh said to them, Let the LORD be with you, but when I let you and your little ones go, look to it; perhaps you have evil intent.

10:11  Not so; go now ye that are men, and serve YHWH; for that is what ye desire.' And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.

11  It will not be so. However, go only with the men, and sacrifice to the Lord. For this, too, is what you yourselves requested.” And immediately they were cast out from the sight of Pharaoh.

11  Let it not be so; go now, the older men, and serve before the LORD; for it is the rest that you desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.

10:12  And YHWH 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  And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt, and let the locust come up on the land, and it shall devour every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees, which the hail left.

12  Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the land of Egypt, toward the locusts, so that they may rise up over it, and devour every plant which remains from the hail.”

10:13  And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and YHWH 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  And Moses extended his staff over the land of Egypt. And the Lord brought a burning wind all that day and night. And when morning came, the burning wind lifted up the locusts.

10:14  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  and brought them up over all the land of Egypt. And they rested in very great abundance over all the borders of Egypt. Before them there were not such locusts, neither after them shall there be.

14  And they ascended over the entire land of Egypt. And they settled into all the parts of the Egyptians: innumerable, such as had not been before that time, nor ever would be thereafter.

10:15  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  And they covered the entire face of the land, laying waste to all things. And the plants of the land were devoured, along with whatever fruits were on the trees, which the hail had left behind. And nothing at all of the greenery remained on the trees or on the plants of the earth in all of Egypt.

10:16  Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said: 'I have sinned against YHWH your God, and against you.

16  And Pharao hasted to call Moses and Aaron, saying, I have sinned before the Lord your God, and against you;

16  For this reason, Pharaoh hurriedly called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.

10:17  Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and entreat YHWH your God, that He may take away from me this death only.'

17  pardon therefore my sin yet this time, and pray to the Lord your God, and let him take away from me this death.

10:18  And he went out from Pharaoh, and entreated YHWH.

18  And Moses went forth from Pharao, and prayed to God.

10:19  And YHWH 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 brought in the opposite direction a strong wind from the sea, and took up the locusts and cast them into the Red Sea, and there was not one locust left in all the land of Egypt.

10:20  But YHWH hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.

20  And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao, and he did not send away the children of Israel.

20  But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart so that he would not let the children of Israel go.

10:21  And YHWH 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  Then the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky. And let there be a darkness over the land of Egypt, so dense that they may be able to feel it.”

10:22  And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;

22  And Moses extended his hand into the sky. And there came a horrible darkness in the entire land of Egypt for three days.

10:23  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  And for three days no man saw his brother, and no man rose up from his bed for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in all the places where they were.

23  No one saw his brother, nor moved himself out of the place where he was. But wherever the sons of Israel were living, there was light.

10:24  And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said: 'Go ye, serve YHWH; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed; let your little ones also go with you.'

24  And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, saying, Go, serve the Lord your God, only leave your sheep and your oxen, and let your store depart with you.

24  And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them: “Go, sacrifice to the Lord. Only let your sheep and herds remain behind. Your little ones may go with you.”

10:25  And Moses said: 'Thou must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, that we may sacrifice unto YHWH our God.

25  Moses said: “You must also permit us victims and holocausts, which we may offer to the Lord our God.

25  Then Moses said to Pharaoh. You must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.

10:26  Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve YHWH our God; and we know not with what we must serve the YHWH, until we come thither.'

26  And our cattle shall go with us, and we will not leave a hoof behind, for of them we will take to serve the Lord our God: but we know not in what manner we shall serve the Lord our God, until we arrive there.

26  All the flocks shall travel with us. Not one hoof of them shall remain behind. For they are necessary for the worship of the Lord our God, especially since we do not know what ought to be immolated, until we arrive at the very place.”

10:27  But YHWH hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.

27  But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao, and he would not let them go.

10:28  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 Pharao says, Depart from me, beware of seeing my face again, for in what day thou shalt appear before me, thou shalt die.

10:29  And Moses said: 'Thou hast spoken well; I will see thy face again no more.'

29  And Moses says, Thou hast said, I will not appear in thy presence again.

29  Moses responded: “So be it, just as you have said. I will no longer see your face.”
