NEW JERUSALEMNOVA VULGATA
1 Yahweh then said to Moses, 'I shal inflict one more plague on Pharaoh and Egypt, after which he willet you go away. When he lets you go, he wil actually drive you out!1 Et dixit Dominus ad Moy sen: “ Adhuc una plaga tan gam pharaonem et Aegyptum, et post haec dimittet vos utique, immo et exire compellet.
2 Now instruct the people that every man is to ask his neighbour, and every woman hers, for silver andgolden jewel ery.'2 Dices ergo omni plebi, ut postulet vir ab amico suo et mulier a vicina sua vasa argentea et aurea;
3 And Yahweh made the Egyptians impressed with the people, while Moses himself was a man of greatimportance in Egypt in the opinion of Pharaoh's officials and the people.3 dabit autem Dominus gratiam populo coram Aegyptiis ”. Fuitque Moyses vir magnus valde in terra Aegypti coram servis pharaonis et omni populo.
4 Moses then said, 'Yahweh says this, "At midnight I shal pass through Egypt,4 Et ait Moyses: “ Haec dicit Dominus: Media nocte egrediar in Aegyptum;
5 and all the first-born in Egypt wil die, from the first-born of Pharaoh, heir to his throne, to the first-bornof the slave-girl at the mill, and all the first-born of the livestock.5 et morietur omne primogenitum in terra Aegyptiorum, a primogenito pharaonis, qui sedet in solio eius, usque ad primogenitum ancillae, quae est ad molam, et omnia primogenita iumentorum.
6 And throughout Egypt there wil be great wailing, such as never was before, nor will be again.6 Eritque clamor magnus in universa terra Aegypti, qualis nec ante fuit nec postea futurus est.
7 But against the Israelites, whether man or beast, never a dog shal bark, so that you may know thatYahweh discriminates between Egypt and Israel.7 Apud omnes autem filios Israel non mutiet canis contra hominem et pecus, ut sciatis quanto miraculo dividat Dominus Aegyptios et Israel.
8 Then all these officials of yours wil come down to me and, bowing low before me, say: Go away, youand all the people who fol ow you! After which, I shal go." ' And, hot with anger, he left Pharaoh's presence.8 Descendentque omnes servi tui isti ad me et adorabunt me dicentes: "Egredere tu et omnis populus, qui sequitur te". Post haec egrediar ”. Et exivit a pharaone iratus nimis.
9 Yahweh then said to Moses, 'Pharaoh wil not listen to you, so that more of my wonders may bedisplayed in Egypt.'9 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: “ Non audiet vos pharao, ut multa signa fiant in terra Aegypti ”.
10 Moses and Aaron worked al these wonders in Pharaoh's presence, but Yahweh made Pharaohstubborn, and he did not let the Israelites leave his country.10 Moyses autem et Aaron fecerunt omnia ostenta haec coram pharaone; et induravit Dominus cor pharaonis, nec dimisit filios Israel de terra sua.
