Ang Ikalimang Salot: Ang Pagkamatay ng mga Hayop
9 Dahil dito, sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Pumunta ka sa Faraon at sabihin mong ipinapasabi ni Yahweh, ng Diyos ng mga Hebreo, na payagan na niyang umalis ang mga Israelita upang sumamba sa akin. 2 Kapag pinigil pa niya kayo, 3 paparusahan ko ng kakila-kilabot na salot ang kanyang mga hayop: ang mga kabayo, asno, kamelyo, baka, tupa at kambing. 4 Mamamatay ang lahat ng mga hayop ng mga Egipcio, ngunit isa mang hayop ng mga Israelita ay walang mamamatay. 5 Naitakda ko na ang oras, bukas ito mangyayari.”
6 Kinabukasan, ginawa nga ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinabi at namatay ang lahat ng hayop ng mga Egipcio, ngunit kahit isa'y walang namatay sa hayop ng mga Israelita. 7 At nang patingnan ng Faraon, wala ngang namatay sa mga hayop ng mga Israelita. Ngunit nagmatigas pa rin ito at ayaw pa ring payagan ang mga Israelita.
Ang Ikaanim na Salot: Ang mga Pigsa
8 Sinabi ni Yahweh kina Moises at Aaron, “Dumakot kayo ng abo sa pugon at ito'y pataas na ihahagis ni Moises na nakikita ng Faraon. 9 Mapupuno ng pinong alikabok ang buong Egipto at ang lahat ng tao at hayop sa lupain ay matatadtad ng mga pigsang nagnanaknak.” 10 Kumuha(A) nga sila ng abo sa pugon at pumunta sa Faraon. Pagdating doon, pataas na inihagis ni Moises ang abo at natadtad nga ng mga pigsang nagnanaknak ang mga tao't mga hayop sa buong Egipto. 11 Ang mga salamangkero'y hindi na nakaharap kay Moises sapagkat sila ma'y tadtad rin ng mga pigsang nagnanaknak. 12 Samantala, ang Faraon ay pinagmatigas pa rin ni Yahweh. Hindi nito pinansin ang mga Israelita, tulad ng sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises.
Ang Ikapitong Salot: Ang Malakas na Ulan ng Yelo
13 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Bukas ng umagang-umaga, pumunta ka sa Faraon. Sabihin mong iniuutos ko na payagan na niyang sumamba sa akin ang mga Israelita. 14 Kapag hindi pa siya pumayag, magpapadala ako ng matinding salot sa kanya, sa kanyang mga tauhan at nasasakupan, upang malaman nilang ako'y walang katulad sa buong daigdig. 15 Kung siya at ang buong bayan ay pinadalhan ko agad ng salot na sakit, sana'y patay na silang lahat. 16 Ngunit(B) hindi ko ginawa iyon upang ipakita sa kanya ang aking kapangyarihan at sa gayo'y maipahayag ang aking pangalan sa buong daigdig. 17 Ngunit hanggang ngayo'y hinahadlangan pa niya ang aking bayan, at ayaw pa rin niyang payagang umalis. 18 Kaya, bukas sa ganitong oras, pauulanan ko sila ng malalaking tipak ng yelo na walang kasinlakas sa buong kasaysayan ng Egipto. 19 Pasilungin mo ang lahat ng tao at isilong ang lahat ng hayop, sapagkat lahat ng bagsakan nito ay mamamatay.” 20 Ang ibang tauhan ng Faraon ay natakot sa ipinasabi ni Yahweh kaya pinasilong nila ang kanilang mga alipin at mga hayop 21 ngunit ipinagwalang-bahala ito ng iba at hinayaan nila sa labas ang kanilang mga alipin at mga hayop.
22 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Iunat mong pataas ang iyong kamay at uulan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo sa buong Egipto, at babagsak ito sa mga tao't mga hayop na nasa labas, pati sa mga halaman.” 23 Itinaas nga ni Moises ang kanyang tungkod. Gumuhit ang kidlat, dumagundong ang kulog at umulan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo sa buong Egipto. 24 Malakas(C) na malakas ang pag-ulan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo at sunud-sunod ang pagkidlat. Ito ang pinakamalakas na pag-ulan ng yelo sa kasaysayan ng Egipto. 25 Bumagsak ito sa buong Egipto at namatay ang lahat ng hindi nakasilong, maging tao man o hayop. Nasalanta ang lahat ng mabagsakan, pati mga halaman at mga punongkahoy. 26 Ngunit ang Goshen na tinitirhan ng mga Israelita ay hindi naulanan ng yelong ito.
27 Kaya, ipinatawag ng Faraon sina Moises at Aaron. Sinabi niya, “Tinatanggap ko ngayon na nagkasala ako kay Yahweh. Siya ang matuwid at kami ng aking mga kababayan ang mali. 28 Ipanalangin ninyo kami sa kanya sapagkat hirap na hirap na kami sa pag-ulan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo at sa malalakas na kulog. Ipinapangako kong kayo'y papayagan ko nang umalis sa lalong madaling panahon.”
29 Sinabi ni Moises, “Pagkalabas ko ng lunsod, mananalangin ako kay Yahweh. Mawawala ang mga kulog at titigil ang pag-ulan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo. Sa gayo'y malalaman ninyo na si Yahweh ang siyang may-ari ng daigdig, 30 kahit alam kong kayo at ang inyong mga tauhan ay hindi pa natatakot sa Panginoong Yahweh.”
31 Ang mga tanim na lino at ang mga sebada ay sirang-sira sapagkat may uhay na ang sebada at namumulaklak na ang lino. 32 Ngunit hindi napinsala ang trigo at ang espelta sapagkat huling tumubo ang mga ito.
33 Umalis si Moises at lumabas ng lunsod. Nanalangin siya kay Yahweh at tumigil ang kulog, ang ulan at ang pagbagsak ng malalaking tipak ng yelo. 34 Nang makita ng Faraon na tumigil na ang ulan at wala nang kulog, nagmatigas na naman siya. Dahil dito, muli siyang nagkasala pati ang kanyang mga tauhan. 35 Lalo siyang nagmatigas sa pagpigil sa mga Israelita, tulad ng sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises.
Exodus 9

The Plague of Dying Egyptian Livestock
9 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Come to Pharaoh and speak to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, “(A)Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 2 For (B)if you refuse to let them go and [a]continue to hold them, 3 behold, (C)the hand of Yahweh [b]will come with a very heavy pestilence on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks. 4 (D)But Yahweh will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that (E)nothing will die of all that belongs to the sons of Israel.”’” 5 Yahweh also set a definite time, saying, “Tomorrow Yahweh will do this thing in the land.” 6 So Yahweh did this thing on the next day, and (F)all the livestock of Egypt died; (G)but of the livestock of the sons of Israel, not one died. 7 And Pharaoh sent, and behold, there was not even one of the livestock of Israel dead. But (H)the heart of Pharaoh was [c]hardened with firmness, and he did not let the people go.
The Plague of Boils
8 Then Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of soot from a kiln, and let Moses toss it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh. 9 And it will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and it will become (I)boils breaking out with sores on man and beast through all the land of Egypt.” 10 So they took the soot from the kiln and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses tossed it toward the sky, and it became boils breaking out with sores on man and beast. 11 (J)And the [d]magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians [e]as well as on all the Egyptians. 12 And (K)Yahweh [f]hardened Pharaoh’s heart with strength, and he did not listen to them, just as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.
The Plague of Hail
13 And Yahweh said to Moses, “(L)Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh, and you shall say to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, “(M)Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 14 For this time I will send all My plagues against your heart and amongst your servants and your people, so that (N)you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth. 15 For if by now I had sent forth My hand and struck you and your people with pestilence, you would then have been wiped out from the earth. 16 But, indeed, (O)for this reason I have caused you to stand, in order to show you My power and in order to recount My name through all the earth. 17 Still you [g]exalt yourself against My people [h]by not letting them go. 18 Behold, about this time tomorrow, (P)I will rain down very heavy hail, such as has not been seen in Egypt from the day it was founded [i]until now. 19 So now, send, bring (Q)your livestock and whatever you have in the field to safety. (R)Every man and beast that is found in the field and is not brought home, the hail will come down on them, and they will die.”’” 20 (S)The one among the servants of Pharaoh who [j]feared the word of Yahweh made his servants and his livestock flee into the houses; 21 but he who did not [k]consider in his heart the word of Yahweh [l]left his servants and his livestock in the field.
22 Now Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that (T)there may be hail on all the land of Egypt, on man and on beast and on every plant of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.” 23 So Moses stretched out his staff toward the sky, and Yahweh gave forth [m]thunder and (U)hail, and fire went down to the earth. And Yahweh rained down hail on the land of Egypt. 24 So there was hail, and fire [n]flashing continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. 25 (V)And the hail struck all that was in the field through all the land of Egypt, from man to beast; the hail also struck every plant of the field and shattered every tree of the field. 26 (W)Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, there was no hail.
27 Then Pharaoh (X)sent and called for Moses and Aaron and said to them, “(Y)I have sinned this time; Yahweh is the righteous one, and I and my people are the wicked ones. 28 (Z)Entreat Yahweh, for God’s [o]thunder and hail are too much; and (AA)I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.” 29 And Moses said to him, “As soon as I go out of the city, I will (AB)spread out my [p]hands to Yahweh; the [q]thunder will cease, and there will be hail no longer, that you may know that (AC)the earth is Yahweh’s. 30 (AD)But as for you and your servants, I know that (AE)you do not yet [r]fear [s]Yahweh God.” 31 (Now the flax and the (AF)barley were struck down, for the barley was in the ear and the flax was in bud. 32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck down, for they are late-ripening.) 33 (AG)And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh and spread out his [t]hands to Yahweh; and the [u]thunder and the hail ceased, and rain [v]no longer poured on the earth. 34 But Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the [w]thunder had ceased. So he sinned again and [x]hardened his heart with firmness, he and his servants. 35 And Pharaoh’s heart was [y]hardened with strength, and he did not let the sons of Israel go, just as (AH)Yahweh had spoken by the hand of Moses.
