Ang mga Apan

10 Dayon nagsiling ang Ginoo kay Moises, “Kadtui ang hari sang Egipto,[a] kay ginpatig-a ko ang iya tagipusuon kag ang tagipusuon sang iya mga opisyal, agod padayon ko nga mapakita sa ila ining akon mga milagro, kag agod masugid ninyo sa inyo mga anak kag mga apo kon paano ko ginsilutan ang mga Egiptohanon kag kon paano ako naghimo sang mga milagro sa ila. Sa sini nga paagi mahibaluan ninyo nga ako amo ang Ginoo.”

Gani nagkadto si Moises kag si Aaron sa hari kag nagsiling sa iya, “Amo ini ang ginasiling sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang mga Hebreo, ‘Hasta san-o ka pa bala nga indi magpaubos sa akon? Palakta ang akon katawhan agod makasimba sila sa akon. Kon indi mo gani sila pagpalakton, padal-an ko buwas sang mga apan ang imo nasyon. Tungod sa ila kadamo, indi na makita ang duta. Pagakaunon nila ang nabilin nga mga tanom nga wala mapierdi sang ulan nga yelo, pati ang tanan ninyo nga mga kahoy. Mapuno sang mga apan ang imo palasyo kag ang mga balay sang imo mga opisyal kag mga katawhan. Wala gid sing may nakita nga pareho sini sa duta sang Egipto halin sang pag-abot diri sang inyo mga katigulangan hasta subong.’ ” Dayon nagtalikod sila ni Moises kag naglakat.

Nagsiling ang mga opisyal sang hari sa iya, “Hasta san-o mo pa bala pabay-an ini nga kalamidad[b] nga maghalit sa aton? Palakta na ang mga Israelinhon, agod makasimba sila sa Ginoo nga ila Dios. Wala mo bala nareyalisar nga guba na ang Egipto?”

Gani ginpabalik liwat si Moises kag si Aaron sa hari. Nagsiling ang hari sa ila, “Sige, makalakat na kamo sa pagsimba sa Ginoo nga inyo Dios. Pero sugiri ninyo ako kon sin-o ang inyo updon sa paglakat.” Nagsabat si Moises, “Malakat kami tanan, bata kag tigulang. Dal-on namon ang amon mga kabataan kag mga kasapatan, kay tanan kami magasaulog sang piesta para sa Ginoo.”

10 Nagsiling ang hari nga may pag-insulto, “Kabay pa nga updan kamo sang Ginoo kon palakton ko kamo kag ang inyo pamilya! Maathag nga malain ang inyo tuyo kay malagyo kamo. 11 Indi ako magsugot! Ang mga lalaki lang ang maglakat agod magsimba sa Ginoo, kon amo gid man ina ang inyo gusto.” Ginpahalin dayon si Moises kag si Aaron sa atubangan sang hari.

12 Nagsiling dayon ang Ginoo kay Moises, “Itudlo ang imo baston[c] sa duta sang Egipto agod mag-abot ang mga apan, kag kaunon nila ang nabilin nga mga tanom nga wala mapierdi sang ulan nga yelo.” 13 Gani gintudlo ni Moises ang iya baston sa duta sang Egipto, kag nagpadala ang Ginoo sang hangin nga halin sa sidlangan sa bilog nga adlaw kag gab-i. Pagkaaga nagdala ang hangin sang mga apan 14 nga puwerte kadamo, kag naghugpa ini sa bug-os nga Egipto. Wala pa gid sing pareho sadto nga pagsalakay sang apan halin sang una kag bisan sang ulihi. 15 Nagtabon sila sa bug-os nga duta sang Egipto hasta nga daw nag-itom ang duta. Ginpangaon nila ang nabilin nga mga tanom nga wala mapierdi sang ulan nga yelo, pati ang tanan nga bunga sang kahoy. Wala gid sing may nabilin nga tanom sa bug-os nga Egipto. 16 Dali-dali nga ginpatawag sang hari si Moises kag si Aaron, kag ginsilingan, “Nakasala ako sa Ginoo nga inyo Dios kag sa inyo. 17 Gani patawara ninyo ako liwat, kag magpangamuyo kamo sa Ginoo nga inyo Dios nga kuhaon niya ining makamamatay nga kalalat-an sa akon.”

18 Ginbayaan dayon ni Moises ang hari kag nagpangamuyo sa Ginoo. 19 Nagsabat ang Ginoo paagi sa pagpadala sang mabaskog nga hangin nga halin sa nakatundan, kag ginpalid sini ang mga apan sa Mapula nga Dagat. Wala na gid sing apan nga nabilin sa bug-os nga Egipto. 20 Pero ginpatig-a gihapon sang Ginoo ang tagipusuon sang hari, kag wala niya pagpalakta ang mga Israelinhon.

Ang Kadulom

21 Dayon nagsiling ang Ginoo kay Moises, “Ibayaw ang imo kamot sa langit agod tabunan sang puwerte nga kadulom ang duta sang Egipto.” 22 Gani ginbayaw ni Moises ang iya kamot sa langit, kag nagdulom gid sa bug-os nga duta sang Egipto sa sulod sang tatlo ka adlaw. 23 Wala sing may nagguwa nga mga Egiptohanon sa ila balay sa sulod sang tatlo ka adlaw kay indi sila makakita. Pero ang mga Israelinhon iya may kasanag sa ila lugar nga ginaestaran.

24 Ginpatawag dayon sang hari si Moises kag ginsilingan, “Sige, magsimba na kamo sa Ginoo. Dal-a pati ang inyo mga pamilya, pero ibilin lang ang inyo mga kasapatan.” 25 Pero nagsabat si Moises, “Kinahanglan nga dal-on namon ang amon mga kasapatan agod makahalad kami sang mga halad, pati na sang mga halad nga ginasunog para sa Ginoo nga amon Dios. 26 Dal-on gid namon ang tanan namon nga kasapatan; wala gid sing may mabilin bisan isa sa ila, kay wala kami kahibalo kon ano nga sapat ang ipahalad sang Ginoo sa amon. Mahibaluan lang namon ini kon didto na kami.”

27 Pero ginpatig-a gihapon sang Ginoo ang tagipusuon sang hari, kag wala niya sila pagpalakta. 28 Nagsiling ang hari kay Moises, “Halin ka sa akon atubangan! Indi ka na magpakita sa akon liwat, kay kon makit-an ko pa gani ikaw, ipapatay ko ikaw.” 29 Nagsabat si Moises, “Kon amo ina ang gusto mo, indi na ako magpakita sa imo liwat.”

The Plague of Locusts

10 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart(A) and the hearts of his officials so that I may perform these signs(B) of mine among them that you may tell your children(C) and grandchildren how I dealt harshly(D) with the Egyptians and how I performed my signs among them, and that you may know that I am the Lord.”(E)

So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble(F) yourself before me? Let my people go, so that they may worship me. If you refuse(G) to let them go, I will bring locusts(H) into your country tomorrow. They will cover the face of the ground so that it cannot be seen. They will devour what little you have left(I) after the hail, including every tree that is growing in your fields.(J) They will fill your houses(K) and those of all your officials and all the Egyptians—something neither your parents nor your ancestors have ever seen from the day they settled in this land till now.’”(L) Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh.

Pharaoh’s officials said to him, “How long will this man be a snare(M) to us? Let the people go, so that they may worship the Lord their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt is ruined?”(N)

Then Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. “Go, worship(O) the Lord your God,” he said. “But tell me who will be going.”

Moses answered, “We will go with our young and our old, with our sons and our daughters, and with our flocks and herds, because we are to celebrate a festival(P) to the Lord.”

10 Pharaoh said, “The Lord be with you—if I let you go, along with your women and children! Clearly you are bent on evil.[a] 11 No! Have only the men go and worship the Lord, since that’s what you have been asking for.” Then Moses and Aaron were driven out of Pharaoh’s presence.

12 And the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand(Q) over Egypt so that locusts swarm over the land and devour everything growing in the fields, everything left by the hail.”

13 So Moses stretched out his staff(R) over Egypt, and the Lord made an east wind blow across the land all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts;(S) 14 they invaded all Egypt and settled down in every area of the country in great numbers. Never before had there been such a plague of locusts,(T) nor will there ever be again. 15 They covered all the ground until it was black. They devoured(U) all that was left after the hail—everything growing in the fields and the fruit on the trees. Nothing green remained on tree or plant in all the land of Egypt.

16 Pharaoh quickly summoned(V) Moses and Aaron and said, “I have sinned(W) against the Lord your God and against you. 17 Now forgive(X) my sin once more and pray(Y) to the Lord your God to take this deadly plague away from me.”

18 Moses then left Pharaoh and prayed to the Lord.(Z) 19 And the Lord changed the wind to a very strong west wind, which caught up the locusts and carried them into the Red Sea.[b] Not a locust was left anywhere in Egypt. 20 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart,(AA) and he would not let the Israelites go.

The Plague of Darkness

21 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness(AB) spreads over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.” 22 So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness(AC) covered all Egypt for three days. 23 No one could see anyone else or move about for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived.(AD)

24 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go,(AE) worship the Lord. Even your women and children(AF) may go with you; only leave your flocks and herds behind.”(AG)

25 But Moses said, “You must allow us to have sacrifices and burnt offerings(AH) to present to the Lord our God. 26 Our livestock too must go with us; not a hoof is to be left behind. We have to use some of them in worshiping the Lord our God, and until we get there we will not know what we are to use to worship the Lord.”

27 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart,(AI) and he was not willing to let them go. 28 Pharaoh said to Moses, “Get out of my sight! Make sure you do not appear before me again! The day you see my face you will die.”

29 “Just as you say,” Moses replied. “I will never appear(AJ) before you again.”

10 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:

And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the Lord.

And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.

Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast:

And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:

And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.

And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve the Lord their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?

And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the Lord your God: but who are they that shall go?

And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the Lord.

10 And he said unto them, Let the Lord be so with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.

11 Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the Lord; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.

12 And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.

13 And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

14 And the locust went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.

15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the Lord your God, and against you.

17 Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and intreat the Lord your God, that he may take away from me this death only.

18 And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the Lord.

19 And the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt.

20 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.

21 And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.

22 And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:

23 They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

24 And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.

25 And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the Lord our God.

26 Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the Lord our God; and we know not with what we must serve the Lord, until we come thither.

27 But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.

28 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.

29 And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more.
