9 Then Hashem said unto Moshe, Go in unto Pharaoh, tell him, Thus saith Hashem Elohei HaIvrim, Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
2 For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,
3 Hinei, the Yad Hashem is upon thy mikneh (livestock) which is in the sadeh, upon the susim, upon the donkeys, upon the camels, upon the herd, and upon the tzon; there shall be a very grievous dever.
4 And Hashem shall separate between the mikneh Yisroel and the mikneh Mitzrayim; and there shall nothing die of all that belongs to the Bnei Yisroel.
5 And Hashem appointed a mo’ed, saying, Tomorrow Hashem shall do this thing in the land.
6 And Hashem did that thing on the next day, and all the mikneh of Mitzrayim died; but of the mikneh of the Bnei Yisroel died not one.
7 And Pharaoh sent, and, hinei, there was not one of the mikneh Yisroel dead. And the lev Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let HaAm go.
8 And Hashem said unto Moshe and unto Aharon, Take to you handfuls of piach of the furnace, and let Moshe sprinkle it toward Shomayim in the sight of Pharaoh.
9 And it shall become fine dust in kol Eretz Mitzrayim, and shall be a sh’khin (boil) breaking forth with festers upon adam, and upon behemah, throughout kol Eretz Mitzrayim.
10 And they took piach of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moshe sprinkled it up toward Shomayim; and it became a sh’khin breaking forth with festers upon adam, and upon behemah.
11 And the kharetumim could not stand before Moshe because of the sh’khin; for the sh’khin was upon the kharetumim, and upon kol Mitzrayim.
12 And Hashem hardened the lev Pharaoh, and he paid heed not unto them; as Hashem had spoken unto Moshe.
13 And Hashem said unto Moshe, Rise up early in the boker, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith Hashem Elohei HaIvrim, Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
14 For I will at this time send all My maggefot upon thine lev, and upon thy avadim, and upon thy people; that thou mayest have da’as that there is none like Me in kol ha’aretz.
15 For now I will stretch out My Yad, that I may strike thee and thy people with dever; and thou shalt be cut off from ha’aretz.
16 In fact for this cause have I raised thee up, for to show in thee My ko’ach; and that My Shem may be declared throughout kol ha’aretz.
17 Thou still are exalting thyself against My people, that thou wilt not let them go.
18 Hinei, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain very grievous barad (hail), such as hath not been in Mitzrayim since the foundation thereof even until now.
19 Send therefore now, and gather thy mikneh, and all that thou hast in the sadeh; for upon every adam (man) and behemah (beast) which shall be found in the sadeh, and shall not be brought into shelter, the barad shall come down upon them, and they shall die.
20 He that feared the Devar Hashem among the avadim of Pharaoh made his avadim and his mikneh flee into the shelters;
21 And he that took not to heart the Devar Hashem left his avadim and his mikneh in the sadeh.
22 And Hashem said unto Moshe, Stretch forth thine yad toward Shomayim, that there may be barad in kol Eretz Mitzrayim, upon adam, and upon behemah, and upon kol esev hasadeh, throughout Eretz Mitzrayim.
23 And Moshe stretched forth his matteh toward Shomayim; and Hashem sent thunder and barad, and the eish flashed down upon the ground; and Hashem rained barad upon Eretz Mitzrayim.
24 So there was barad, and eish mingled with the barad, very grievous, such as there was none like it in kol Eretz Mitzrayim since it became a nation.
25 And the barad struck throughout kol Eretz Mitzrayim all that was in the sadeh, both adam and behemah; the barad struck kol esev hasadeh, and beat down kol etz of the sadeh.
26 Only in Eretz Goshen, where the Bnei Yisroel were, was there no barad.
27 And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moshe and Aharon, and said unto them, chatati (I have sinned) this time: Hashem HaTzaddik (is righteous), and I and my people are haresha’im (wicked, guilty, wrong).
28 Entreat Hashem for it is enough, that there be no more Elohim thunderings and barad; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.
29 And Moshe said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the Ir, I will spread out my palms [davening] unto Hashem; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more barad; that thou mayest have da’as that ha’aretz is Hashem’s.
30 But as for thee and thy avadim, I know that ye will not yet fear Hashem Elohim.
31 And the flax and the barley was struck; for the barley was ripe, and the flax was in bud.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck; for they were not yet come up.
33 And Moshe went out of the Ir from Pharaoh, and spread out his palms [davening] unto Hashem; and the thunders and barad ceased, and the rain was not poured upon ha’aretz.
34 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the barad and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his lev, he and his avadim.
35 And the lev Pharaoh was hardened, neither would he let the Bnei Yisroel go; as Hashem had spoken by Moshe.
12 Meanwhile, when the multitudes by the thousands assembled, to the point of trampling one another, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said this in a yechidus first to his talmidim, Be shomer regarding the chametz of the Perushim, which is their tzeviut (hypocrisy).
2 And nothing that men hide in a cover up is concealed which will not be revealed, and nothing held nistar (hidden) which will not be laid bare.
3 So then, what things you said in the choshech, will be heard in the ohr; and what you whispered in the ear bchadrei chadarim (in a most secret place) will be shouted from the roof tops.
4 I say to you, my chaverim, do not have pachad (terror) of the killers of the basar, who after that have nothing more they can do.
5 But I will show you someone of whom you should have yirah; fear the One who after killing the basar has the samchut to throw into Gehinnom. Ken, I say to you, have yirah (fear) of this One.
6 Are not chamesh sparrows sold for two assarion? And not even one of them has been overlooked in the eynayim of Hashem.
7 But even the hairs of your rosh have all been inventoried. Never fear. You are of more worth than many sparrows.
8 And I say to you, whoever will declare the Ani Maamin public hoda’ah (acknowledgement) of me [as Moshiach] before Bnei Adam, the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14] will make public hodaah (acknowledgement) of him before the malachim of Hashem.
9 But the one having made hakhchashah (denial) of me [as the Ben HaAdam Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14] before Bnei Adam will be denied before the malachim of Hashem.
10 And everyone who will say a dvar against the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14], he will be given selicha (forgiveness). But the one having committed Chillul Hashem gidduf (blasphemy) against the Ruach Hakodesh will not be given selicha.
11 And when they bring you in before the shuls and the rulers and the manhigim, do not have a lev rogez about what you should speak in your own hitstaddekut (defense), or about your legal brief.
12 For the Ruach Hakodesh will be your rabbi teaching you in the same hour what it is necessary to say. [SHEMOT 4:12]
13 And someone out of the multitude said to him, Rabbi, speak to my ach to share with me the yerushah (inheritance).
14 But he said to him, Ben Adam, who appointed me a shofet or an arbitrator over you?
15 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Take care and be shomer against all chamdanut (covetousness), because the Chayyei HaAdam does not consist in the abundance of his possessions. [IYOV 20:20; 31:24; TEHILLIM 62:10]
16 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach spoke a mashal (parable) to them saying, An aza (certain) oisher (rich man) had land that produced a good crop.
17 And he was thinking to himself, saying, What should I do? Because I do not have a place where I will store my crops.
18 And he said, This I will do. I will tear down my asim (granaries, storehouses) and I will build larger asim. And there I will gather all my grain and my produce.
19 And I will say to my neshamah, Neshamah, you have an ample store of goods for many years to come. Take your ease, LEEKHOL, VLISHTOT, VLISHMOACH (to eat, to drink, and to be merry (KOHELET 8:15)
20 But Hashem said to him, Goilem! Halailah hazeh your nashamah is required of you. Now to whom will be given what you prepared? [YIRMEYAH 17:11; IYOV 27:8; TEHILLIM 39:6; 49:10]
21 Such is the one hoarding up for himself and not having osher toward Hashem.
22 And Rebbe, Melech, HaMoshiach said to his talmidim, Therefore, I say to you: do not have a LEV ROGEZ (DEVARIM 28:65) for your Chayyim, about your okhel (food) or your basar (body), what you might put on.
23 For the neshamah is more than okhel and the basar more than gartel (belt) and shtreimel (expensive hat). BERESHIS 47:18; TEHILLIM 16:9 10; IYOV 19:25 27, YESHAYAH 53:11
24 Consider the ravens! They do not sow nor reap, they have no storeroom or asam (granary), yet Hashem feeds them. Of how much more worth are you than the OPH HASHOMAYIM [IYOV 38:41; TEHILLIM 147:9]
25 And can any of you by means of a LEV ROGEZ add one cubit to your span of Chayyim?
26 If then you are not able to do even a small thing, why have a LEV ROGEZ about the rest?
27 Consider the lilies! How they grow! A lily does not labor nor spin. But I say to you, not even Shlomo HaMelech in all his kavod was arrayed like one of these. [MELACHIM ALEF 10:4 7]
28 And if Hashem so enrobes the grass of the field, which is here hayom (today) and thrown into the eish makhar (tomorrow), how much more will Hashem enrobe you, you ones of little bitachon.
29 And don’t keep striving after okhel (food) and skikuy (drink), and don’t have a lev rogez (anxious heart).
30 For all these things the Goyim of the Olam Hazeh strive after, but your Av [shbaShomayim] has daas (knowledge) that you need these things.
31 But seek the Malchut Hashem, and these things will be added to you as well.
32 Do not have pachad (terror, fear), Eder Katan (Little Flock), because it is the ratzon, the chefetz (desire) of your Av [shbaShomayim] to give you the Malchut.
33 Sell your possesions and give tzedakah. Make for yourselves the baitel (wallet) that doesn’t wear out, an inexhaustlble otzar (treasure) in Shomayim, where no ganav (thief) comes near nor moth destroys.
34 For where your otzar (treasure) is, there also will be your lev (heart).
35 Tighten your gartels for action and have your menorahs lit.
36 And you should be like bnei Adam who expectantly khakeh l’vo’o shel (await the arrival of) their Adon when he returns from the Chasunoh, in order that, when he comes and knocks, ofen ort they may open the delet for him.
37 Ashrey are those avadim (servants), whom, having come, the Adon will find keeping shomer. Omein, I say to you, that he will fasten his gartel, and have those avadim (servants) sit down to tish, and he will come and serve them.
38 And if in the second or if in the third watch he comes and finds it thus, ashrey (happy, blessed) are those.
39 But have daas of this, that if the Baal Bayit had had da’as in what hour the ganav (thief) comes, he would not have allowed his bais to be broken into.
40 So you be shomer, for the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14] comes in an hour you do not think.
41 And Kefa said, Adoneinu, are you speaking this mashal for us or for all?
42 And HaAdon said, Who then is the sochen haneeman and navon (faithful and wise steward) whom HaAdon will appoint over his avadim to give them their okhel (food) allowance at the proper time?
43 Ashrey is that eved, whom, having come, his Adon will find doing thus.
44 Omein, I say to you, that he will appoint him over all that he has.
45 But if that eved says in his lev, Adoni delays to come to me, and if that eved begins to beat the avadim (servants) and the shfakhot (maid servants), and to gluttonize and get down in his schnapps,
46 HaAdon of that eved will come on a day which he does not expect and at an hour of which he does not have da’as, and will cut him in pieces and assign him the portion of the Apikoros with the koferim (unbelievers).
47 That eved, who had daas of the ratzon of his Adon and did not get prepared or do according to his ratzon, will be beaten with a klap (blow) and not a few. [DEVARIM 25:2]
48 But the one not having had daas, but having done things worthy of a klap, will receive but a few. But to everyone to whom much was given, much will be required from him, and to whom was entrusted much, even more achraius (accountability) will be required. [VAYIKRA 5:17; BAMIDBAR 15:27-30]
49 I came to throw Eish on the earth, and how I wish it was already kindled!
50 And I have a tevilah I have to undergo, and how I am distressed until it is completed.
51 Do you think that I came to bring Shalom on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather machaloket (division, controversy).
52 For there will be from now in one bais (household) chamesh (five) having been divided, shalosha against shenayim and shenayim against shalosha,
53 AV will be divided against BEN and BEN against AV, EM (mother) against BAT and BAT against EM, KALLAH BACHAMOT (daughter-in law against mother-inlaw) and CHAMOT against KALLAH. [MICHOH 7:6]
54 And he was saying also to the multitudes, When you see the anan rising over the maarav (west), ofen ort you say, Geshem (rain) is coming, and so it happens.
55 And when there is a south wind blowing, you say, It will be kham (hot), and it happens.
56 Tzevu’im! You have daas how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky; how is it, then, that you do not have daas of how to interpret HaZman HaZeh (This Time)?
57 And why also for yourselves do you not judge what is yashar (straight, right)?
58 For as you go with your ish riv (opponent in a lawsuit) to appear before the magistrate, on the derech make an effort to settle with him, lest he drag you to the shofet, and the shofet will hand over you to the shoter, and the shoter will throw you into the beit hasohar.
59 I say to you, by no means may you come out, until even the last peruta (small coin) you pay back.
27 Moreover Iyov continued his mashal, and said,
2 As El liveth, Who hath taken away my mishpat, and Shaddai, Who hath saddened my nefesh;
3 All the while my neshamah is in me, and the ruach of Eloah is in my nostrils,
4 My lips shall not speak falsehood, nor my leshon utter deceit.
5 Far be it from me I should justify you; till I die I will not remove mine tom (integrity) from me.
6 My tzedakah I hold fast, and will not let it go; my lev shall not reproach for any of my days.
7 Let mine enemy be as the rasha (evildoer), and he that riseth up against me as unrighteous.
8 For what is the tikveh of the chanef, when He cutteth off, when Eloah taketh away, his nefesh?
9 Will El hear his cry when tzarah cometh upon him?
10 Will he delight himself in Shaddai? Will he always call upon Eloah?
11 I will teach you concerning the yad El; that which is with Shaddai will I not conceal.
12 Hen (behold), all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?
13 This is the chelek (lot) of the adam rasha with El and the nachalah of oppressors, which they shall receive from Shaddai.
14 If his banim be multiplied, it is for the cherev, and his offspring shall not have lechem enough.
15 Those that survive him shall be buried in mavet, and his almanot shall not weep.
16 Though he heap up kesef as the aphar, and pile up raiment as the clay,
17 He may prepare it, but the tzaddik shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the kesef.
18 He buildeth his bais as a moth, and as a sukkah that the watchman maketh.
19 The oisher (rich man) shall lie down, but he shall do so no more; he openeth his eyes, and he is not.
20 Terrors take hold on him as a flood, a tempest stealeth him away in the lailah.
21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth as a storm hurleth him forth from his makom.
22 For it will hurl against him, without sparing; he desperately flees from its yad.
23 Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him away from his makom.
13 If in the leshonot of Bnei Adam and malachim I speak, but I do not have ahavah, I have become only a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2 And if I have nevu’ah and have da’as of all sodot and all da’as, and if I have all emunah so as to remove mountains, but ahavah I do not have, I am nothing.
3 And if I’m a marbitz tzedaka and give all I possess in gemilut chasadim and if I give my body al kiddush ha-Shem for sereifah (death by burning), but ahavah I do not have, I have gained nothing. [DANIEL 3:28]
4 Ahavah suffers long; ahavah is kind; ahavah does not have kinah; ahavah does not brag; ahavah is not puffed up in ga’avah (conceit, pride);
5 ahavah does not behave shamelessly; ahavah does not in anochiyut insist on its own way; ahavah is not touchy and vindictive, keeping a record of wrongs (ZECHARYAH 8:17).
6 Ahavah does not find simcha in evil, but rejoices in HaEmes.
7 Ahavah covers all things (MISHLE 10:12), believes all things, has tikvah (hope), even zitzfleisch, for all things.
8 Ahavah never fails. However, divrei nevu’ah will be abolished; leshonot will cease; da’as will come to an end.
9 For we have da’as in part, and we have divrei nevu’ah is part.
10 But when shleimah (completion) comes, the teilvaiz (partial) will disappear.
11 When I was a yeled, I used to speak like one, think like one, reason like one. But when I became mevugar (mature), I put away kinderyohrn. [Ps 131:2]
12 For still we see through a mirror indistinctly. But then [in the Olam Haba], distinctly, panim el panim. Now I have da’as only in part; then I will have da’as fully, even as also Hashem had full da’as of me. [Job 26:14; 36:26; Gn 32:30; Job 19:26]
13 But now remain emunah, tikvah, and ahavah, these shalosh (three). And the greatest of these is ahavah.
