Exodus 8

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 The Lord also said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh, and you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord: Release my people in order to sacrifice to me.	1 قال الرب لموسى ادخل الى فرعون وقل له هكذا يقول الرب اطلق شعبي ليعبدوني.
2 But if you are not willing to release them, behold, I will strike all your coasts with frogs.	2 وان كنت تأبى ان تطلقهم فها انا اضرب جميع تخومك بالضفادع.
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.	3 فيفيض النهر ضفادع. فتصعد وتدخل الى بيتك والى مخدع فراشك وعلى سريرك والى بيوت عبيدك وعلى شعبك والى تنانيرك والى معاجنك.
4 And to you, and to your people, and to all your servants, the frogs will enter.’ ”	4 عليك وعلى شعبك وعبيدك تصعد الضفادع
5 And the Lord said to Moses: “Say to Aaron: ‘Extend your hand over the rivers, and also over the streams and the marshes, and bring forth frogs over the land of Egypt.’ ”	5 فقال الرب لموسى قل لهرون مدّ يدك بعصاك على الانهار والسواقي والآجام واصعد الضفادع على ارض مصر.
6 And Aaron extended his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.	6 فمدّ هرون يده على مياه مصر. فصعدت الضفادع وغطت ارض مصر.
7 Then the sorcerers also, by their incantations, did similarly, and they brought forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.	7 وفعل كذلك العرافون بسحرهم واصعدوا الضفادع على ارض مصر
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 فدعا فرعون موسى وهرون وقال صليا الى الرب ليرفع الضفادع عني وعن شعبي فأطلق الشعب ليذبحوا للرب.
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 فقال موسى لفرعون عيّن لي متى اصلي لاجلك ولاجل عبيدك وشعبك لقطع الضفادع عنك وعن بيوتك. ولكنها تبقى في النهر.
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.	10 فقال غدا. فقال كقولك. لكي تعرف ان ليس مثل الرب الهنا.
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.”	11 فترتفع الضفادع عنك وعن بيوتك وعبيدك وشعبك. ولكنها تبقى في النهر
12 And Moses and Aaron departed from Pharaoh. And Moses cried out to the Lord on behalf of the promise that he had made to Pharaoh concerning the frogs.	12 ثم خرج موسى وهرون من لدن فرعون وصرخ موسى الى الرب من اجل الضفادع التي جعلها على فرعون.
13 And the Lord acted according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields.	13 ففعل الرب كقول موسى. فماتت الضفادع من البيوت والدور والحقول.
14 And they gathered them together into immense piles, and the land was polluted.	14 وجمعوها كوما كثيرة حتى أنتنت الارض.
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.	15 فلما رأى فرعون انه قد حصل الفرج اغلظ قلبه ولم يسمع لهما كما تكلم الرب
16 And the Lord said to Moses: “Say to Aaron: ‘Extend your staff and strike the dust of the earth. And let there be stinging insects throughout the entire the land of Egypt.’ ”	16 ثم قال الرب لموسى قل لهرون مدّ عصاك واضرب تراب الارض ليصير بعوضا في جميع ارض مصر.
17 And they did so. And Aaron extended his hand, holding the staff, and he struck the dust of the earth, and there came stinging insects upon men and upon beasts. All the dust of the earth was turned into stinging insects through all the land of Egypt.	17 ففعلا كذلك. مدّ هرون يده بعصاه وضرب تراب الارض. فصار البعوض على الناس وعلى البهائم. كل تراب الارض صار بعوضا في جميع ارض مصر.
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.	18 وفعل كذلك العرافون بسحرهم ليخرجوا البعوض فلم يستطيعوا. وكان البعوض على الناس وعلى البهائم.
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.	19 فقال العرافون لفرعون هذا اصبع الله. ولكن اشتد قلب فرعون فلم يسمع لهما كما تكلم الرب
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.	20 ثم قال الرب لموسى بكّر في الصباح وقف امام فرعون. انه يخرج الى الماء. وقل له هكذا يقول الرب اطلق شعبي ليعبدوني.
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.	21 فانه ان كنت لا تطلق شعبي ها انا ارسل عليك وعلى عبيدك وعلى شعبك وعلى بيوتك الذبّان. فتمتلئ بيوت المصريين ذبّانا. وايضا الارض التي هم عليها.
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.	22 ولكن أميّز في ذلك اليوم ارض جاسان حيث شعبي مقيم حتى لا يكون هناك ذبّان. لكي تعلم اني انا الرب في الارض.
23 And I will set a division between my people and your people. Tomorrow this sign will be.’ ”	23 واجعل فرقا بين شعبي وشعبك. غدا تكون هذه الآية.
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.	24 ففعل الرب هكذا. فدخلت ذبان كثيرة الى بيت فرعون وبيوت عبيده وفي كل ارض مصر خربت الارض من الذبّان
25 And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them, “Go and sacrifice to your God in this land.”	25 فدعا فرعون موسى وهرون وقال اذهبوا اذبحوا لالهكم في هذه الارض.
26 And Moses said: “It cannot be so. For we will immolate the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. For if we slaughter those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.	26 فقال موسى لا يصلح ان نفعل هكذا. لاننا انما نذبح رجس المصريين للرب الهنا. ان ذبحنا رجس المصريين امام عيونهم أفلا يرجموننا.
27 We will sojourn three days’ journey into the wilderness. And we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, just as he has instructed us.”	27 نذهب سفر ثلاثة ايام في البرية ونذبح للرب الهنا كما يقول لنا.
28 And Pharaoh said: “I will release you in order to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the desert. Yet you may only go so far. Petition for me.”	28 فقال فرعون انا اطلقكم لتذبحوا للرب الهكم في البرية ولكن لا تذهبوا بعيدا. صلّيا لاجلي.
29 And Moses said: “After departing from you, I will pray to the Lord. And the flies will withdraw from Pharaoh, and from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow. Yet do not be willing to deceive any longer, so that you would not release the people to sacrifice to the Lord.”	29 فقال موسى ها انا اخرج من لدنك واصلي الى الرب. فترتفع الذبان عن فرعون وعبيده وشعبه غدا. ولكن لا يعد فرعون يخاتل حتى لا يطلق الشعب ليذبح للرب
30 And Moses, departing from Pharaoh, prayed to the Lord.	30 فخرج موسى من لدن فرعون وصلى الى الرب.
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.	31 ففعل الرب كقول موسى. فارتفع الذبان عن فرعون وعبيده وشعبه. لم تبق واحدة.
32 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, so that, even at this turn, he would not release the people.	32 ولكن اغلظ فرعون قلبه هذه المرة ايضا فلم يطلق الشعب
