NOVA VULGATANEW AMERICAN BIBLE
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.1 Then the LORD told Moses, "One more plague will I bring upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt. After that he will let you depart. In fact, he will not merely let you go; he will drive you away.
2 Dices ergo omni plebi, ut postulet vir ab amico suo et mulier a vicina sua vasa argentea et aurea;2 Instruct your people that every man is to ask his neighbor, and every woman her neighbor, for silver and gold articles and for clothing."
3 dabit autem Dominus gratiam populo coram Aegyptiis ”. Fuitque Moyses vir magnus valde in terra Aegypti coram servis pharaonis et omni populo.
3 The LORD indeed made the Egyptians well-disposed toward the people; Moses himself was very highly regarded by Pharaoh's servants and the people in the land of Egypt.
4 Et ait Moyses: “ Haec dicit Dominus: Media nocte egrediar in Aegyptum;4 Moses then said, "Thus says the LORD: At midnight I will go forth through Egypt.
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.5 Every first-born in this land shall die, from the first-born of Pharaoh on the throne to the first-born of the slave-girl at the handmill, as well as all the first-born of the animals.
6 Eritque clamor magnus in universa terra Aegypti, qualis nec ante fuit nec postea futurus est.6 Then there shall be loud wailing throughout the land of Egypt, such as has never been, nor will ever be again.
7 Apud omnes autem filios Israel non mutiet canis contra hominem et pecus, ut sciatis quanto miraculo dividat Dominus Aegyptios et Israel.7 But among the Israelites and their animals not even a dog shall growl, so that you may know how the LORD distinguishes between the Egyptians and the Israelites.
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.
8 All these servants of yours shall then come down to me, and prostrate before me, they shall beg me, 'Leave us, you and all your followers!' Only then will I depart." With that he left Pharaoh's presence in hot anger.
9 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: “ Non audiet vos pharao, ut multa signa fiant in terra Aegypti ”.9 The LORD said to Moses, "Pharaoh refuses to listen to you that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt."
10 Moyses autem et Aaron fecerunt omnia ostenta haec coram pharaone; et induravit Dominus cor pharaonis, nec dimisit filios Israel de terra sua.
10 Thus, although Moses and Aaron performed these various wonders in Pharaoh's presence, the LORD made Pharaoh obstinate, and he would not let the Israelites leave his land.
