出埃及 7
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
7 耶和华对摩西说：“看哪，我使你在法老面前好象 神一样；你哥哥亚伦要作你的先知。 2 我吩咐你的一切，你都要说；你哥哥亚伦要告诉法老，法老就让以色列人离开他的地。 3 我要使法老心硬，我也要在埃及地加增我的神迹奇事。 4 可是法老不听你们的话，我必下手击打埃及；借着严厉的刑罚把我的军队，我的人民以色列人，从埃及地领出来。 5 我向埃及伸手，把以色列人从他们中间领出来的时候，埃及人就必知道我是耶和华。” 6 摩西和亚伦这样行了；耶和华怎样吩咐摩西和亚伦，他们就照样行了。 7 摩西和亚伦与法老说话的时候，摩西八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。
以杖变蛇
8 耶和华告诉摩西和亚伦说： 9 “如果法老告诉你们说：‘你们行件奇事吧’，你就要对亚伦说：‘拿你的手杖来，把它丢在法老面前，它就会变作蛇。’” 10 摩西和亚伦就进到法老那里，照着耶和华吩咐他们的行了；亚伦把手杖丢在法老和法老的臣仆面前，手杖就变了蛇。 11 于是，法老也把智慧人和行法术的人召了来；他们本是埃及的术士，也用他们的巫术照样行了。 12 他们各人都丢下自己的手杖，手杖就变了蛇；亚伦的手杖却吞了他们的手杖。 13 法老心里刚硬，不肯听他们的话，就像耶和华所说的一样。
血灾
14 耶和华对摩西说：“法老心里固执，拒绝让人民离去。 15 明天早晨你要到法老那里去。看哪，法老出来到水边去的时候，你要站在河边迎见他；那变过蛇的手杖，你要拿在手里。 16 你要对法老说：‘耶和华希伯来人的 神差我到你这里来，说：“让我的人民离开这里，好使他们可以在旷野事奉我”，你看，直到现在你还是不听。 17 耶和华这样说：“看哪，我要用我手里的杖击打河中的水，水就必变成血；因此你就知道我是耶和华。 18 河中的鱼必死亡，河水也必发臭，埃及人就必厌恶喝这河里的水。”’” 19 耶和华对摩西说：“你要对亚伦说：‘拿你的手杖来，把你的手伸在埃及的众水之上，就是在他们的江、河、池和所有水塘之上，使水都变成血。因此，在埃及全地，连木器石器中都必有血。’”
20 摩西和亚伦就这样行了，就像耶和华所吩咐的；亚伦在法老面前和法老的臣仆面前举起手杖，击打河里的水，河里的水就都变了血。 21 河里的鱼死了，河水发臭了，埃及人也不能喝这河里的水了；在埃及，全地都有血。 22 埃及的术士也用他们的巫术这样行了；可是法老却心里刚硬，不肯听摩西和亚伦，就像耶和华所说的。 23 法老转身回到宫里去，也不把这事放在心上。 24 所有的埃及人都在河的周围掘地，要得水喝，因为他们不能喝这河里的水。
25 耶和华击打尼罗河以后，满了七天。
Exodus 7

De eerste plagen
7 De Here zei echter tegen Mozes: ‘Ik heb u aangewezen als mijn vertegenwoordiger bij de farao en Aäron zal uw woordvoerder zijn. 2 Geef Aäron alles door wat Ik u vertel, zodat hij het tegen de farao kan zeggen en zal eisen dat hij het volk Israël uit Egypte laat vertrekken. 3 Maar Ik zal de farao koppig maken zodat hij weigert en Ik zal in Egypte veel angstaanjagende wonderen doen. 4 Zelfs dan zal de farao nog niet naar u willen luisteren, dus zal Ik Egypte daarna treffen met een zware ramp en mijn volk uit het land wegleiden. 5 De Egyptenaren zullen er achter komen dat Ik de Here ben wanneer Ik mijn macht toon en hen dwing mijn volk te laten gaan.’
6 Mozes en Aäron voerden de opdrachten van de Here uit. 7 Mozes was tachtig jaar en Aäron drieëntachtig jaar tijdens hun herhaalde bezoeken aan de farao. 8 Toen zei de Here tegen Mozes en Aäron: 9 ‘De farao zal u om een wonder vragen om te bewijzen dat God jullie heeft gestuurd. Als hij dat doet, moet Aäron zijn staf op de grond gooien en deze zal een slang worden.’ 10 Zo gingen Mozes en Aäron opnieuw naar de farao en deden het wonder zoals de Here hun had gezegd, Aäron gooide zijn staf voor de ogen van de farao en zijn hofhouding op de grond en deze werd een slang. 11 Toen ontbood de farao zijn geleerden en tovenaars en zij deden hetzelfde wonder door hun magie. 12 Hun staven werden ook slangen! Maar Aärons slang at hun slangen op! 13 De farao bleef echter koppig en wilde nog steeds niet luisteren, precies zoals de Here van tevoren had gezegd. 14 De Here zei tegen Mozes: ‘De farao blijft hardnekkig weigeren het volk te laten gaan. 15 Maar toch moet u morgenochtend als hij naar de rivier gaat, weer naar hem toe gaan. Ga aan de oever van de rivier staan en neem de staf die in een slang werd veranderd, mee. 16 Zeg dan tegen de farao: de Here, de God van de Hebreeërs, heeft mij naar u toe gestuurd met de boodschap: laat mijn volk gaan, zodat zij Mij kunnen aanbidden in de woestijn. Tot nu toe hebt u niet willen luisteren. Maar luister nu goed, 17 want de Here zegt tegen u: u zult merken dat Ik God ben. Mozes zal met zijn staf op het water van de Nijl slaan en dit zal veranderen in bloed. 18 Alle vissen zullen sterven, zodat de hele rivier gaat stinken. Niemand zal het water uit de Nijl meer kunnen drinken.’ 19 Toen zei de Here tegen Mozes: ‘Zeg tegen Aäron dat hij zijn staf pakt en zijn arm uitstrekt over al het water van de Egyptenaren, over hun rivieren, hun kanalen, hun poelen en al hun waterreservoirs, zodat het verandert in bloed. Al het water in Egypte zal in bloed veranderen, ook het water dat in schalen of kruiken zit.’
20 Mozes en Aäron deden wat de Here had gezegd: Aäron strekte zijn arm uit en sloeg met zijn staf op het water van de Nijl, waar de farao en al zijn dienaren bij stonden. In een oogwenk veranderde het water in bloed! 21 De vissen in de rivier stierven en verspreidden een vreselijke stank. De Egyptenaren konden het water uit de rivier niet meer drinken. Overal in het land was het water in bloed veranderd. 22,23 Maar de Egyptische geleerden deden met hun toverkunsten precies hetzelfde en weer liet de farao zich niet overtuigen. Hij weigerde te luisteren, precies zoals de Here had voorspeld. 24 De Egyptenaren moesten echter in de omgeving van de Nijl naar water graven, omdat het Nijlwater niet te drinken was. 25 Zo ging een volle week voorbij.
Exodus 7
New King James Version
Moses Before Pharaoh
7 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. 2 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. 3 And (D)I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and (E)multiply My (F)signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt. 4 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. 5 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.”
6 Then Moses and Aaron (M)did so; just as the Lord commanded them, so they did. 7 And Moses was (N)eighty years old and (O)Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Aaron’s Miraculous Rod(P)
8 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 9 “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.

Exodus 7
King James Version
7 And the Lord said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
2 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.
3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 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.
5 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.
6 And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
7 And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.
8 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 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.
