1 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εισελθε προς φαραω και ερεις αυτω ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος των εβραιων εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα μοι λατρευσωσιν1 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.
2 ει μεν ουν μη βουλει εξαποστειλαι τον λαον μου αλλ' ετι εγκρατεις αυτου2 But if you still refuse, and you retain them,
3 ιδου χειρ κυριου επεσται εν τοις κτηνεσιν σου τοις εν τοις πεδιοις εν τε τοις ιπποις και εν τοις υποζυγιοις και ταις καμηλοις και βουσιν και προβατοις θανατος μεγας σφοδρα3 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.
4 και παραδοξασω εγω εν τω καιρω εκεινω ανα μεσον των κτηνων των αιγυπτιων και ανα μεσον των κτηνων των υιων ισραηλ ου τελευτησει απο παντων των του ισραηλ υιων ρητον4 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.”
5 και εδωκεν ο θεος ορον λεγων εν τη αυριον ποιησει κυριος το ρημα τουτο επι της γης5 And the Lord appointed a time, saying: “Tomorrow, the Lord will accomplish this word in the land.”
6 και εποιησεν κυριος το ρημα τουτο τη επαυριον και ετελευτησεν παντα τα κτηνη των αιγυπτιων απο δε των κτηνων των υιων ισραηλ ουκ ετελευτησεν ουδεν6 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.
7 ιδων δε φαραω οτι ουκ ετελευτησεν απο παντων των κτηνων των υιων ισραηλ ουδεν εβαρυνθη η καρδια φαραω και ουκ εξαπεστειλεν τον λαον7 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.
8 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην και ααρων λεγων λαβετε υμεις πληρεις τας χειρας αιθαλης καμιναιας και πασατω μωυσης εις τον ουρανον εναντιον φαραω και εναντιον των θεραποντων αυτου8 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 και γενηθητω κονιορτος επι πασαν την γην αιγυπτου και εσται επι τους ανθρωπους και επι τα τετραποδα ελκη φλυκτιδες αναζεουσαι εν τε τοις ανθρωποις και εν τοις τετραποσιν και εν παση γη αιγυπτου9 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.”
10 και ελαβεν την αιθαλην της καμιναιας εναντιον φαραω και επασεν αυτην μωυσης εις τον ουρανον και εγενετο ελκη φλυκτιδες αναζεουσαι εν τοις ανθρωποις και εν τοις τετραποσιν10 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.
11 και ουκ ηδυναντο οι φαρμακοι στηναι εναντιον μωυση δια τα ελκη εγενετο γαρ τα ελκη εν τοις φαρμακοις και εν παση γη αιγυπτου11 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.
12 εσκληρυνεν δε κυριος την καρδιαν φαραω και ουκ εισηκουσεν αυτων καθα συνεταξεν κυριος12 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord said to Moses.
13 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην ορθρισον το πρωι και στηθι εναντιον φαραω και ερεις προς αυτον ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος των εβραιων εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα λατρευσωσιν μοι13 And the Lord said to Moses: “Rise up in the morning, and stand in the sight of Pharaoh, and you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people to sacrifice to me.
14 εν τω γαρ νυν καιρω εγω εξαποστελλω παντα τα συναντηματα μου εις την καρδιαν σου και των θεραποντων σου και του λαου σου ιν' ειδης οτι ουκ εστιν ως εγω αλλος εν παση τη γη14 For at this turn, I will send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants, and upon your people. So may you know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
15 νυν γαρ αποστειλας την χειρα παταξω σε και τον λαον σου θανατω και εκτριβηση απο της γης15 For now, extending my hand, I shall strike you and your people with pestilence, and you will perish from the earth.
16 και ενεκεν τουτου διετηρηθης ινα ενδειξωμαι εν σοι την ισχυν μου και οπως διαγγελη το ονομα μου εν παση τη γη16 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.
17 ετι ουν συ εμποιη του λαου μου του μη εξαποστειλαι αυτους17 Do you still retain my people, and are you still unwilling to release them?
18 ιδου εγω υω ταυτην την ωραν αυριον χαλαζαν πολλην σφοδρα ητις τοιαυτη ου γεγονεν εν αιγυπτω αφ' ης ημερας εκτισται εως της ημερας ταυτης18 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.
19 νυν ουν κατασπευσον συναγαγειν τα κτηνη σου και οσα σοι εστιν εν τω πεδιω παντες γαρ οι ανθρωποι και τα κτηνη οσα αν ευρεθη εν τω πεδιω και μη εισελθη εις οικιαν πεση δε επ' αυτα η χαλαζα τελευτησει19 Therefore, send immediately and gather together your cattle, and all that you have in the field. For men and beasts, and all things that will be found outside, not gathered in from the fields, and on which the hail will fall, shall die.’ ”
20 ο φοβουμενος το ρημα κυριου των θεραποντων φαραω συνηγαγεν τα κτηνη αυτου εις τους οικους20 He who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh caused his servants and cattle to flee together into the houses.
21 ος δε μη προσεσχεν τη διανοια εις το ρημα κυριου αφηκεν τα κτηνη εν τοις πεδιοις21 But he who neglected the word of the Lord released his servants and cattle into the fields.
22 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εκτεινον την χειρα σου εις τον ουρανον και εσται χαλαζα επι πασαν γην αιγυπτου επι τε τους ανθρωπους και τα κτηνη και επι πασαν βοτανην την επι της γης22 And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky, so that there may be hail in the entire land of Egypt, on men, and on beasts, and on every plant of the field in the land of Egypt.”
23 εξετεινεν δε μωυσης την χειρα εις τον ουρανον και κυριος εδωκεν φωνας και χαλαζαν και διετρεχεν το πυρ επι της γης και εβρεξεν κυριος χαλαζαν επι πασαν γην αιγυπτου23 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.
24 ην δε η χαλαζα και το πυρ φλογιζον εν τη χαλαζη η δε χαλαζα πολλη σφοδρα σφοδρα ητις τοιαυτη ου γεγονεν εν αιγυπτω αφ' ου γεγενηται επ' αυτης εθνος24 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.
25 επαταξεν δε η χαλαζα εν παση γη αιγυπτου απο ανθρωπου εως κτηνους και πασαν βοτανην την εν τω πεδιω επαταξεν η χαλαζα και παντα τα ξυλα τα εν τοις πεδιοις συνετριψεν η χαλαζα25 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.
26 πλην εν γη γεσεμ ου ησαν οι υιοι ισραηλ ουκ εγενετο η χαλαζα26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, did the hail not fall.
27 αποστειλας δε φαραω εκαλεσεν μωυσην και ααρων και ειπεν αυτοις ημαρτηκα το νυν ο κυριος δικαιος εγω δε και ο λαος μου ασεβεις27 And Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron, saying to them: “I have sinned even until now. The Lord is just. I and my people are impious.
28 ευξασθε ουν περι εμου προς κυριον και παυσασθω του γενηθηναι φωνας θεου και χαλαζαν και πυρ και εξαποστελω υμας και ουκετι προσθησεσθε μενειν28 Pray to the Lord, so that the thundering of God and the hail may cease, so that I may release you, and so that you may by no means remain here any longer.”
29 ειπεν δε αυτω μωυσης ως αν εξελθω την πολιν εκπετασω τας χειρας μου προς κυριον και αι φωναι παυσονται και η χαλαζα και ο υετος ουκ εσται ετι ινα γνως οτι του κυριου η γη29 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.
30 και συ και οι θεραποντες σου επισταμαι οτι ουδεπω πεφοβησθε τον κυριον30 But I know that both you and your servants do not yet fear the Lord God.”
31 το δε λινον και η κριθη επληγη η γαρ κριθη παρεστηκυια το δε λινον σπερματιζον31 And so, the flax and the barley were damaged, because the barley was growing, and the flax was already developing grains.
32 ο δε πυρος και η ολυρα ουκ επληγη οψιμα γαρ ην32 But the wheat and the spelt were not damaged, because they were late.
33 εξηλθεν δε μωυσης απο φαραω εκτος της πολεως και εξεπετασεν τας χειρας προς κυριον και αι φωναι επαυσαντο και η χαλαζα και ο υετος ουκ εσταξεν ετι επι την γην33 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.
34 ιδων δε φαραω οτι πεπαυται ο υετος και η χαλαζα και αι φωναι προσεθετο του αμαρτανειν και εβαρυνεν αυτου την καρδιαν και των θεραποντων αυτου34 Then Pharaoh, seeing that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders had ceased, added to his sin.
35 και εσκληρυνθη η καρδια φαραω και ουκ εξαπεστειλεν τους υιους ισραηλ καθαπερ ελαλησεν κυριος τω μωυση35 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.
