1 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, I will bring one more plague upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, after which he will let you go from here; when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out of here altogether.

وَقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى: «سَآتِي بِضَرْبَةٍ واحِدَةٍ أُخْرَى عَلَى فِرعَوْنَ وَعَلَى مِصرَ. وَبَعدَ ذَلِكَ سَيُطلِقُكُمْ مِنْ هُنا. وَحِينَ يُطلِقُكُمْ، فَإنَّهُ سَيَطرُدُكُمْ طَرْداً.

2 S peak now to the people and let each man demand of his neighbour and each woman of her neighbour, vessels of silver and of gold.

«قُلْ لِلشَّعبِ أنْ يَطلُبَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جارِهِ، وَكُلُّ امْرأةٍ مِنْ جارَتِها، أدَواتٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَفِضَّةٍ.»

3 A nd the LORD gave the people grace in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh’s slaves, and in the sight of the people.

وَجَعَلَ اللهُ المِصرِيِّينَ كُرَماءَ مَعَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ. وَكانَ الرَّجُلُ مُوسَى عَظِيماً جِدّاً فِي أرْضِ مِصْرَ، فِي عُيُونِ خُدّامِ فِرعَوْنَ وَالشَّعْبِ.

4 ¶ And Moses said, The LORD hath said thus, About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt,

وَقالَ مُوسَى: «هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ اللهُ: ‹قُرْبَ مُنتَصَفِ اللَّيلِ، سَأخرُجُ إلَى وَسَطِ مِصرَ،

5 a nd all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sits upon his throne even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill and all the firstborn of beasts.

فَيَمُوتُ كُلُّ بِكْرٍ فِي أرْضِ مِصرَ، ابْتِداءً بِابْنِ فِرعَوْنَ الجالِسِ عَلَى عَرشِهِ، حَتَّى بِكْرِ الجارِيَةِ الجالِسَةِ خَلفَ حَجَرِ الرَّحَى، وَكُلِّ بِكرٍ مِنَ الحَيواناتِ.

6 A nd there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has never been one like it, nor shall there ever be any like it again.

سَيَكُونُ هُناكَ نُواحٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي كُلِّ أرْضِ مِصرَ لَمْ يَأْتِ مِثلُهُ مِنْ قَبلُ، وَلَنْ يَأْتِيَ.

7 B ut among all the sons of Israel, from man to beast, not a dog shall move his tongue, that ye may know that the LORD shall make a difference between the Egyptians and the Israelites.

أمّا وَسَطَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ، فَلَنْ يَكُونَ هُناكَ وَلا حَتَّى كَلبٌ لِيَنبَحَ وَسَطَ النّاسِ أوِ الحَيواناتِ، لِيَعرِفُوا أنَّ اللهَ يُمَيِّزُ بَينَ المِصرِيِّينَ وَالإسْرائِيلييّن.

8 A nd all these thy slaves shall come down unto me and bow down themselves unto me, saying, Go out, and all the people that follow thee; and after that I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.

كُلُّ خُدّامِكَ هَؤُلاءِ سَيَأتُونَ إلَيَّ وَسَيَرْكَعُونَ لِي وَيَقُولُونَ: اخْرُجْ أنْتَ وَكُلُّ الشَّعبِ الَّذِي يَتبَعُكَ. حِينَئِذٍ، سَأخرُجُ.›»

9 A nd the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.

وَقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى: «لَنْ يَستَمِعَ فِرعَوْنُ لَكَ كَي أزِيدَ مُعجِزاتِي فِي أرْضِ مِصرَ.»

10 A nd Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: but the LORD had hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.

فَعَمِلَ مُوسَى وَهارُونُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ المُعجِزاتِ أمامَ فِرعَوْنَ. لَكِنَّ اللهَ قَسَّى قَلْبَهُ كَي لا يُطلِقَ بَني إسْرائِيلَ مِنْ أرْضِهِ.
