出埃及记 8
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
蛙災
8 耶和華對摩西說：“你到法老那裡去，對他說：‘耶和華這樣說：“讓我的人民離開這裡，使他們可以事奉我。 2 如果你拒絕讓他們離開這裡，看哪，我必用青蛙擊打你的全境。 3 河裡必滋生青蛙；青蛙必上來，進到你的宮殿和臥房裡去，跳上你的床，進你臣僕的房屋，跳上你人民的身上，進你的爐子和摶麵盆。 4 青蛙也必跳上你、你的人民和臣僕的身上。”’”（本章第1~4節在《馬索拉文本》為7:26~29）
5 耶和華對摩西說：“你要對亞倫說把手中的杖伸在江、河、池之上，使青蛙上到埃及地來。”（本節在《馬索拉文本》為8:1） 6 亞倫把手一伸在埃及的眾水之上，青蛙就上來了，並且遮蓋了埃及地。 7 眾術士也用他們的巫術照樣行了，使青蛙上了埃及地來。
8 法老把摩西和亞倫召了來，說：“請你們懇求耶和華，好叫他使青蛙離開我和我的人民，我就必讓這人民離開這裡，使他們可以向耶和華獻祭。” 9 摩西回答法老：“請指示，我要在甚麼時候為你和你的臣僕，以及你的人民，懇求耶和華除滅青蛙，使青蛙離開你和你的宮殿，只留在河裡呢？”
10 法老說：“明天。”摩西回答：“就照著你的話行吧，好叫你知道沒有神像耶和華我們的 神。 11 青蛙必離開你和你的宮殿、你的臣僕和你的人民，只留在河裡。” 12 於是，摩西和亞倫離開法老走了出來；摩西為了耶和華加在法老身上青蛙的災害向耶和華呼求。 13 耶和華就照著摩西的話行了；在房屋裡、院子裡和田野中的青蛙都死了。 14 有人把青蛙一堆一堆積聚起來，那地就發臭了。 15 法老一見災禍平息了，就心裡剛硬，不肯聽他們的話，就像耶和華所說的。
虱災
16 耶和華對摩西說：“你要對亞倫說：‘伸出你的手杖，擊打地上的塵土，使塵土在埃及全地都變成虱子。’” 17 他們就這樣行了；亞倫伸出手中的杖，擊打地上的塵土，就在人身上和牲畜身上有了虱子；埃及全地所有地上的塵土都變成了虱子。 18 眾術士也用他們的巫術照樣行，要生出虱子來，卻不能辦到；所以在人身上和牲畜身上都有虱子。 19 眾術士就對法老說：“這是 神的手指頭。”法老卻心裡剛硬，不肯聽摩西和亞倫，就像耶和華所說的。
蠅災
20 耶和華對摩西說：“你要清早起來，站在法老面前；看哪，法老到水邊來的時候，你要對他說：‘耶和華這樣說：你要讓我的人民離開這裡，使他們可以事奉我。 21 如果你不讓我的人民離開這裡，看哪，我必叫蒼蠅落在你和你臣僕，以及人民的身上，進到你的宮殿；埃及人的房屋都必充滿蒼蠅，他們所在的地方也是這樣。 22 那日，我必把我人民居住的地方歌珊分別出來，使那裡沒有蒼蠅，為要使你知道在全地上只有我是耶和華。 23 我必把我的人民和你的人民分別出來（按照《馬索拉文本》，“分別出來”作“設定救贖”；兩者在原文非常相似，現參照《七十士譯本》等古譯本翻譯），明天必有這神蹟。’” 24 耶和華就這樣行了；無數的蒼蠅進了法老的宮殿和他臣僕的房屋，並且遍布埃及全地；那地就因為蒼蠅的緣故毀壞了。
25 法老把摩西和亞倫召了來，對他們說：“你們去，在這地獻祭給你們的 神吧。” 26 摩西回答：“決不可以這樣行，因為我們要把埃及人看為可憎的祭物獻給耶和華我們的 神；如果我們把埃及人看為可憎的祭物在他們眼前獻上，難道他們不拿石頭打死我們嗎？ 27 我們要走三天的路程進到曠野，好照著耶和華吩咐我們的，向耶和華我們的 神獻祭。” 28 法老回答：“我必讓你們離開這裡，你們可以在曠野獻祭給耶和華你們的 神，只是你們不可走得太遠；請你們為我祈禱。” 29 摩西說：“看哪，我要離開你出去，祈求耶和華，使蒼蠅明天可以離開法老和法老的臣僕，以及法老的人民，只是不可再行欺騙，不讓以色列人離開這裡去獻祭給耶和華。” 30 於是，摩西從法老那裡出來，去祈求耶和華。 31 耶和華就照著摩西的話行了，使蒼蠅離開了法老和他的臣僕，以及他的人民，連一隻也沒有留下。 32 可是，這一次法老還是心裡剛硬，不肯讓以色列人離開。
Exodus 8
King James Version
8 And the Lord spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
3 And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
4 And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
5 And the Lord spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
6 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat the Lord, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the Lord.
9 And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, that they may remain in the river only?
10 And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word: that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the Lord our God.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.
12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the Lord because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.
13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
14 And they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.
16 And the Lord said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
17 And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.
20 And the Lord said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
22 And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.
23 And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be.
24 And the Lord did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.
25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26 And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he shall command us.
28 And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me.
29 And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the Lord that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.
30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the Lord.
31 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.

Den andra plågan - paddorna
8 Därefter sade Herren till Mose: "Gå till farao och säg till honom: Så säger Herren: Släpp mitt folk, så att de kan hålla gudstjänst åt mig! 2 Men om du vägrar att släppa dem, skall jag plåga hela ditt land med paddor. 3 Nilen skall vimla av paddor. De skall stiga upp och komma in i ditt hus, in i ditt sovrum och upp i din säng, in i dina tjänares hus och bland ditt folk och i dina bakugnar och baktråg. 4 Ja, på dig själv och ditt folk och alla dina tjänare skall paddorna hoppa upp." 5 Herren sade ytterligare till Mose: "Säg till Aron: Räck ut handen med din stav över strömmarna, kanalerna och sjöarna och låt paddor stiga upp över Egyptens land." 6 Då räckte Aron ut handen över Egyptens vatten, och det kom upp paddor som övertäckte landet. 7 Men spåmännen gjorde samma tecken genom sina magiska konster och lät paddor stiga upp över Egyptens land.
8 Då kallade farao till sig Mose och Aron och sade: "Be till Herren att han tar bort paddorna från mig och mitt folk. Då skall jag släppa folket, så att de kan offra till Herren." 9 Mose sade till farao: "Du skall få äran att bestämma när jag skall be för dig, dina tjänare och ditt folk att paddorna skall försvinna från dig och dina hus, så att de bara finns kvar i Nilen." 10 Han svarade: "I morgon." Då sade Mose: "Det skall bli som du har sagt, så att du förstår att ingen är som Herren, vår Gud. 11 Paddorna skall försvinna från dig och dina hus, från dina tjänare och ditt folk, och de skall bara finnas kvar i Nilen." 12 Därefter gick Mose och Aron ut från farao. Och Mose ropade till Herren om hjälp mot paddorna som han låtit komma över farao. 13 Herren gjorde så som Mose hade begärt. Paddorna dog och försvann från husen, gårdarna och fälten. 14 Man samlade ihop dem i hög på hög, och landet fylldes av stank. 15 Men när farao såg att han fått lindring, stängde han till sitt hjärta och hörde inte på dem, alldeles som Herren hade sagt.
Den tredje plågan - myggen
16 Sedan sade Herren till Mose: "Säg till Aron: Räck ut din stav och slå i stoftet på marken. Över hela Egyptens land skall då stoftet förvandlas till mygg." 17 De gjorde så. Aron räckte ut sin hand med staven och slog i stoftet på marken, och det kom mygg på människor och boskap. Av allt stoft på marken blev det mygg i hela Egypten. 18 Spåmännen ville då göra samma tecken genom sina magiska konster. De försökte få fram mygg, men de kunde inte. Och myggen kom på människor och boskap. 19 Då sade spåmännen till farao: "Detta är Guds finger." Men faraos hjärta förblev hårt och han lyssnade inte på dem, alldeles som Herren hade sagt.
Den fjärde plågan - flugorna
20 Herren sade till Mose: "Träd fram inför farao tidigt på morgonen när han går ut till vattnet och säg till honom: Så säger Herren: Släpp mitt folk, så att de kan hålla gudstjänst åt mig! 21 Om du inte släpper mitt folk skall jag sända flugsvärmar över dig och dina tjänare, ditt folk och dina hus, så att egyptiernas hus blir fyllda av flugsvärmar, ja, också marken som de står på. 22 Men på den dagen skall jag göra ett undantag för landet Gosen där mitt folk bor, så att det inte skall finnas några flugsvärmar där. Detta för att du skall inse att jag, Herren, är här i landet. 23 Jag skall göra åtskillnad mellan mitt folk och ditt. I morgon skall detta tecken inträffa." 24 Och Herren gjorde så. Stora flugsvärmar kom in i faraos och hans tjänares hus, och överallt i Egypten blev landet förstört av flugsvärmarna.
25 Då kallade farao till sig Mose och Aron och sade: "Gå och offra åt er Gud här i landet!" 26 Men Mose svarade: "Det skulle inte vara riktigt att göra så. Vi offrar nämligen åt Herren, vår Gud, sådant som är avskyvärt för egyptierna. Om vi skulle offra inför egyptiernas ögon sådant som de avskyr skulle de säkert stena oss. 27 Vi vill gå tre dagsresor ut i öknen och offra åt Herren, vår Gud, så som han befaller oss." 28 Då sade farao: "Jag släpper er så att ni kan offra åt Herren, er Gud, i öknen, men gå bara inte för långt bort. Be för mig!" 29 Mose svarade: "Ja, när jag kommer ut från dig, skall jag be till Herren att flugsvärmarna i morgon viker bort från farao, från hans tjänare och hans folk. Men må farao inte bedra oss igen och vägra att släppa folket, så att de kan offra åt Herren." 30 Mose gick ut från farao och bad till Herren, 31 och Herren gjorde så som Mose hade begärt. Han tog bort flugsvärmarna från farao, från hans tjänare och hans folk, så att inte en enda fluga fanns kvar. 32 Men farao stängde till sitt hjärta också den här gången och släppte inte folket.

New King James Version
The Second Plague: Frogs
8 And the Lord spoke to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Let My people go, (A)that they may serve Me. 2 But if you (B)refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your territory with (C)frogs. 3 So the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, into your (D)bedroom, on your bed, into the houses of your servants, on your people, into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls. 4 And the frogs shall come up on you, on your people, and on all your servants.” ’ ”
5 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Say to Aaron, (E)‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’ ” 6 So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and (F)the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. 7 (G)And the magicians did so with their [a]enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, (H)“Entreat[b] the Lord that He may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people (I)go, that they may sacrifice to the Lord.”
9 And Moses said to Pharaoh, “Accept the honor of saying when I shall intercede for you, for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, that they may remain in the river only.”
10 So he said, “Tomorrow.” And he said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that (J)there is no one like the Lord our God. 11 And the frogs shall depart from you, from your houses, from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. And Moses (K)cried out to the Lord concerning the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh. 13 So the Lord did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields. 14 They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank. 15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was (L)relief, (M)he hardened his heart and did not heed them, as the Lord had said.
The Third Plague: Lice
16 So the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it may become [c]lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’ ” 17 And they did so. For Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and (N)it became lice on man and beast. All the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Now (O)the magicians so worked with their [d]enchantments to bring forth lice, but they (P)could not. So there were lice on man and beast. 19 Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is (Q)the[e] finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s (R)heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, just as the Lord had said.
The Fourth Plague: Flies
20 And the Lord said to Moses, (S)“Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh as he comes out to the water. Then say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: (T)“Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 21 Or else, if you will not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and your servants, on your people and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand. 22 And in that day (U)I will set apart the land of (V)Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, in order that you may (W)know that I am the Lord in the midst of the (X)land. 23 I will [f]make a difference between My people and your people. Tomorrow this (Y)sign shall be.” ’ ” 24 And the Lord did so. (Z)Thick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.
25 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
26 And Moses said, “It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing (AA)the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not [g]stone us? 27 We will go (AB)three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God as (AC)He will command us.”
28 So Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. (AD)Intercede for me.”
29 Then Moses said, “Indeed I am going out from you, and I will entreat the Lord, that the swarms of flies may depart tomorrow from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. But let Pharaoh not (AE)deal deceitfully anymore in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.”
30 So Moses went out from Pharaoh and (AF)entreated the Lord. 31 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not one remained. 32 But Pharaoh (AG)hardened his heart at this time also; neither would he let the people go.
