1 耶和华对摩西说： "你要到法老那里去， 对他说： ‘耶和华希伯来人的 神这样说： "让我的人民离开这里， 使他们可以事奉我。" 2 如果你拒绝他们离开这里， 仍然强留他们， 3 看哪， 耶和华的手必用严重的瘟疫加在你田间的牲畜身上， 加在马、驴、骆驼、牛群、羊群身上。 4 耶和华必把以色列的牲畜和埃及人的牲畜分别出来； 所有属于以色列人的， 一只也不死去。’" 5 耶和华就定了时候， 说： "明天耶和华必在此地行这事。" 6 第二天， 耶和华就行了这事， 埃及人全部的牲畜都死了； 可是属于以色列人的牲畜， 一只也没有死去。 7 法老派人去看， 果然看见属于以色列人的牲畜， 连一只也没有死去。法老的心还是刚硬， 不肯让以色列人离开。 8 耶和华对摩西和亚伦说： "你们要两手拿满炉灰， 摩西要在法老眼前把炉灰向天上扬起来。 9 这炉灰必在埃及全地变为微尘， 在埃及全地的人和牲畜身上就必生出疹病和脓疮。" 10 摩西和亚伦取了炉灰， 站在法老面前； 摩西把炉灰向天上扬起来， 人和牲畜身上就生出了疹病和脓疮。 11 众术士因为生了疮的缘故， 不能站在摩西的面前； 因为众术士和所有埃及人身上都生了疮。 12 耶和华使法老心里刚硬， 他就不肯听摩西和亚伦的话， 就像耶和华对摩西所说的。 13 耶和华对摩西说： "你要清早起来， 站在法老面前， 对他说： ‘耶和华希伯来人的 神这样说： "让我的人民离开这里， 使他们可以事奉我。 14 因为这一次我要降下我的一切灾祸， 打击你和你的臣仆及人民， 为要使你知道在全地上没有神像我的。 15 如果我现在伸手用瘟疫击打你和你的人民， 你就早已从地上消灭了。 16 然而我使你存留， 是为了使你看见我的能力， 并且在全地上传讲我的名。 17 你仍然向我的人民自高， 不让他们离开吗？ 18 看哪， 明天大约这个时候， 我必降下极重的冰雹， 在埃及自建国以来， 直到现在， 未曾有过这样的冰雹的。 19 所以， 你现在要派人去， 把你的牲畜和田间所有属于你的， 都收聚到安全的地方； 因为凡在田间发现的人和牲畜而不收回家里去的， 冰雹必落在他们身上， 他们就必死亡。"’" 20 法老的臣仆中有惧怕耶和华这话的， 就叫他的仆人和牲畜进屋里来。 21 但那不把耶和华这话放在心上的， 却把他的仆人和牲畜留在田里。 22 耶和华对摩西说： "你要向天伸杖， 使埃及全地都有冰雹， 落在人身上、在牲畜身上和埃及地田间所有的蔬菜上。" 23 摩西把手杖向天一伸， 耶和华就打雷（"打雷"原文作" 神的声音"）下雹， 有火落在地上； 耶和华使冰雹降在埃及地上。 24 那时有了冰雹， 冰雹与火混杂在一起， 十分严重； 埃及全地自从建国以来， 未曾有过这样的冰雹。 25 在埃及全地， 冰雹把田间的一切， 连人和牲畜都击打了； 冰雹又把田间的一切蔬菜击打了， 也把田间的一切树木打断了。 26 只有在以色列人所在的歌珊地， 没有冰雹。 27 于是， 法老把摩西和亚伦召了来， 对他们说： "这一次我犯了罪了； 耶和华是公义的， 我和我的人民是有罪的。 28 请你们祈求耶和华吧， 因为这雷声和冰雹已经够了； 我决意让你们离开， 你们不可再留在这里。" 29 摩西回答法老： "我一出城， 就必向耶和华伸手祷告， 雷声就必止住， 也不再有冰雹了， 好使你知道大地是属于耶和华的。 30 至于你和你的臣仆， 我知道你们在耶和华 神的面前还是没有惧怕的心。" 31 那时， 麻和大麦被冰雹击打了， 因为大麦已经吐穗， 麻也开了花。 32 只是小麦和粗麦却没有被击打， 因为它们还没有长成。 33 摩西离开法老出城去了， 就向耶和华伸手祷告， 雷声和冰雹就止住了， 雨也不再倾倒在地上了。 34 法老看见雨水、冰雹和雷声都止住了， 就更加犯罪， 他和他的臣仆都心里刚硬。 35 法老的心刚硬， 不肯让以色列人离开， 就像耶和华借着摩西所说的。

1 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Go in unto Pharaoh, and thou hast spoken unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve me,2 for, if thou art refusing to send away, and art still keeping hold upon them,3 lo, the hand of Jehovah is on thy cattle which [are] in the field, on horses, on asses, on camels, on herd, and on flock -- a pestilence very grievous.4 `And Jehovah hath separated between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and there doth not die a thing of all the sons of Israel`s;5 and Jehovah setteth an appointed time, saying, To-morrow doth Jehovah do this thing in the land.`6 And Jehovah doth this thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt die, and of the cattle of the sons of Israel not one hath died;7 and Pharaoh sendeth, and lo, not even one of the cattle of Israel hath died, and the heart of Pharaoh is hard, and he hath not sent the people away.8 And Jehovah saith unto Moses and unto Aaron, `Take to you the fulness of your hands [of] soot of a furnace, and Moses hath sprinkled it towards the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh,9 and it hath become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and it hath become on man and on cattle a boil breaking forth [with] blains, in all the land of Egypt.`10 And they take the soot of the furnace, and stand before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkleth it towards the heavens, and it is a boil [with] blains, breaking forth, on man and on beast;11 and the scribes have not been able to stand before Moses, because of the boil, for the boil hath been on the scribes, and on all the Egyptians.12 And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses.13 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve Me,14 for, at this time I am sending all My plagues unto thy heart, and on thy servants, and on thy people, so that thou knowest that there is none like Me in all the earth,15 for now I have put forth My hand, and I smite thee, and thy people, with pestilence, and thou art hidden from the earth.16 `And yet for this I have caused thee to stand, so as to show thee My power, and for the sake of declaring My Name in all the earth;17 still thou art exalting thyself against My people -- so as not to send them away;18 lo, I am raining about [this] time to-morrow hail very grievous, such as hath not been in Egypt, even from the day of its being founded, even until now.19 `And, now, send, strengthen thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; every man and beast which is found in the field, and is not gathered into the house -- come down on them hath the hail, and they have died.`20 He who is fearing the word of Jehovah among the servants of Pharaoh hath caused his servants and his cattle to flee unto the houses;21 and he who hath not set his heart unto the word of Jehovah leaveth his servants and his cattle in the field.22 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Stretch forth thy hand towards the heavens, and there is hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.`23 And Moses stretcheth out his rod towards the heavens, and Jehovah hath given voices and hail, and fire goeth towards the earth, and Jehovah raineth hail on the land of Egypt,24 and there is hail, and fire catching itself in the midst of the hail, very grievous, such as hath not been in all the land of Egypt since it hath become a nation.25 And the hail smiteth in all the land of Egypt all that [is] in the field, from man even unto beast, and every herb of the field hath the hail smitten, and every tree of the field it hath broken;26 only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel [are], there hath been no hail.27 And Pharaoh sendeth, and calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith unto them, `I have sinned this time, Jehovah [is] the Righteous, and I and my people [are] the Wicked,28 make ye supplication unto Jehovah, and plead that there be no voices of God and hail, and I send you away, and ye add not to remain.`29 And Moses saith unto him, `At my going out of the city, I spread my palms unto Jehovah -- the voices cease, and the hail is not any more, so that thou knowest that the earth [is] Jehovah`s;30 but thou and thy servants -- I have known that ye are not yet afraid of the face of Jehovah God.`31 And the flax and the barley have been smitten, for the barley [is] budding, and the flax forming flowers,32 and the wheat and the rye have not been smitten, for they are late.33 And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, [from] the city, and spreadeth his hands unto Jehovah, and the voices and the hail cease, and rain hath not been poured out to the earth;34 and Pharaoh seeth that the rain hath ceased, and the hail and the voices, and he continueth to sin, and hardeneth his heart, he and his servants;35 and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.
