그때 여호와께서 모세에게 말씀하셨다. “보라, 내가 너를 바로에게 신과 같은 존재로 만들었으니 네 형 아론이 너의 [a]대변자가 될 것이다.

너는 내가 명령한 모든 것을 네 형 아론에게 말하고 그는 그것을 바로에게 말하여 이스라엘 자손을 그 땅에서 내보내게 하라.

그러나 내가 바로를 완고하게 할 것이니 내가 이집트에 아무리 많은 기적을 행하여도

그가 너희 말을 듣지 않을 것이다. 그때 내가 이집트에 무서운 재앙을 내려 그 땅에서 내 백성 이스라엘 자손을 인도해 내겠다.

내가 [b]이집트에 내 능력을 나타내어 이스라엘 자손을 그 땅에서 인도해 낼 때 이집트 사람들이 내가 여호와임을 알게 될 것이다.”

그래서 모세와 아론은 여호와께서 명령하신 대로 하였다.

그들이 바로와 대면했을 때 모세는 80세였고 아론은 83세였다.

뱀으로 변하는 아론의 지팡이

여호와께서 모세와 아론에게 말씀하셨다.

“바로가 너희에게 기적을 요구하며 내가 너희를 보낸 것을 증명하라고 하면 모세 네가 아론에게 지팡이를 바로 앞에 던지라고 말하여라. 그러면 그것이 뱀이 될 것이다.”

10 그래서 모세와 아론은 바로에게 가서 여호와께서 명령하신 대로 했는데 아론이 바로와 그의 신하들 앞에 자기 지팡이를 던지자 그것이 뱀이 되었다.

11 그때 바로가 지혜로운 자들과 마법사들을 불렀다. 그들도 마술을 써서

12 각자 지팡이를 던지자 그것이 뱀이 되었다. 그러나 [c]아론의 뱀이 그들의 뱀을 삼켜 버렸다.

13 그런데도 바로는 여전히 고집을 피우며 여호와께서 말씀하신 대로 모세와 아론의 말을 듣지 않았다.

첫째 재앙 – 피

14 그때 여호와께서 모세에게 말씀하셨다. “바로가 대단히 완고하여 백성들을 보내는 것을 거절하고 있다.

15 그러니 너는 아침에 바로에게 가거라. 그가 나일강으로 내려올 것이니 너는 강변에서 그를 만나 전에 뱀으로 변했던 그 지팡이를 손에 쥐고

16 그에게 말하라. ‘히브리 사람의 하나님 여호와께서 나를 왕에게 보내 이스라엘 백성이 광야에서 그를 섬길 수 있도록 그들을 보내라고 말씀하셨으나 왕은 지금까지 듣지 않았습니다.

17 그러므로 여호와께서 이렇게 말씀하십니다: 너는 내가 여호와인 것을 알게 될 것이다. 내가 모세에게 지시하여 그의 지팡이로 강물을 치게 할 것이니 강물이 피로 변하고

18 물고기가 죽을 것이며 물에서는 악취가 나서 이집트 사람들이 그 물을 먹을 수 없게 될 것이다.’ ”

19 여호와께서는 다시 모세에게 말씀하셨다. “너는 아론에게 그의 지팡이를 잡고 그것을 이집트의 모든 강과 운하와 연못과 호수 위에 펴라고 말하라. 그러면 그 모든 물이 피가 되어 이집트 곳곳에 피가 있을 것이며 심지어 나무 그릇이나 돌 항아리에도 피가 있을 것이다.”

20 그래서 모세와 아론이 여호와께서 명령하신 대로 바로와 그 신하들 앞에서 지팡이를 들어 강물을 쳤다. 그러자 그 물이 다 피로 변하고

21 물고기가 죽었으며 물에서는 악취가 나서 이집트 사람들이 그 물을 마실 수 없게 되었고 이집트 곳곳에는 피가 있었다.

22 그때 바로의 마법사들도 자기들의 마법으로 그와 똑같이 행하자 바로는 더욱 완강해져서 여호와의 말씀대로 그들의 말을 듣지 않고

23 오히려 발길을 돌려 이 일에 아무 관심도 없다는 듯이 궁전으로 들어가 버렸다.

24 그리고 이집트 사람들은 강물을 마실 수 없어서 강변 일대를 파기 시작하였다.

25 여호와께서 강물을 치신 지도 7일이 지났다.

And the Lord said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.

And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.

And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.

And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.

And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.

10 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the Lord had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.

12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.

14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go.

15 Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the river's brink against he come; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand.

16 And thou shalt say unto him, The Lord God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear.

17 Thus saith the Lord, In this thou shalt know that I am the Lord: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

18 And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.

19 And the Lord spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and that there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.

20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

21 And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

22 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the Lord had said.

23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he set his heart to this also.

24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.

25 And seven days were fulfilled, after that the Lord had smitten the river.

Moses Before Pharaoh

So the Lord said to Moses: “See, I have made you (A)as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be (B)your prophet. You (C)shall speak all that I command you. And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land. And (D)I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and (E)multiply My (F)signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt. But (G)Pharaoh will not heed you, so (H)that I may lay My hand on Egypt and bring My [a]armies and My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt (I)by great judgments. And the Egyptians (J)shall know that I am the Lord, when I (K)stretch out My hand on Egypt and (L)bring out the children of Israel from among them.”

Then Moses and Aaron (M)did so; just as the Lord commanded them, so they did. And Moses was (N)eighty years old and (O)Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.

Aaron’s Miraculous Rod(P)

Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, (Q)‘Show a miracle for yourselves,’ then you shall say to Aaron, (R)‘Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent.’ ” 10 So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just (S)as the Lord commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it (T)became a serpent.

11 But Pharaoh also (U)called the wise men and (V)the [b]sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also (W)did in like manner with their [c]enchantments. 12 For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods. 13 And Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the Lord had said.

The First Plague: Waters Become Blood

14 So the Lord said to Moses: (X)“Pharaoh’s heart is hard; he refuses to let the people go. 15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning, when he goes out to the (Y)water, and you shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him; and (Z)the rod which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand. 16 And you shall say to him, (AA)‘The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, “Let My people go, (AB)that they may [d]serve Me in the wilderness”; but indeed, until now you would not hear! 17 Thus says the Lord: “By this (AC)you shall know that I am the Lord. Behold, I will strike the waters which are in the river with the rod that is in my hand, and (AD)they shall be turned (AE)to blood. 18 And the fish that are in the river shall die, the river shall stink, and the Egyptians will (AF)loathe[e] to drink the water of the river.” ’ ”

19 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your rod and (AG)stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their streams, over their rivers, over their ponds, and over all their pools of water, that they may become blood. And there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in buckets of wood and pitchers of stone.’ ” 20 And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the Lord commanded. So he (AH)lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the (AI)waters that were in the river were turned to blood. 21 The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians (AJ)could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

22 (AK)Then the magicians of Egypt did (AL)so with their [f]enchantments; and Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, (AM)as the Lord had said. 23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house. Neither was his heart moved by this. 24 So all the Egyptians dug all around the river for water to drink, because they could not drink the water of the river. 25 And seven days passed after the Lord had struck the river.
