NAV
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «امْثُلْ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدُونِي.
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
2
NAV
وَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ أَنْ تُطْلِقَهُمْ فَهَا أَنَا ضَارِبٌ جَمِيعَ تُخُومِكَ بِالضَّفَادِعِ.
BSB
BSB:
But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs.
3
NAV
فَيَفِيضُ النَّهْرُ بِالضَّفَادِعِ الَّتِي تَصْعَدُ وَتَقْتَحِمُ بَيْتَكَ وَمُخْدَعَ فِرَاشِكَ وَسَرِيرَكَ وَبُيُوتَ حَاشِيَتِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ وَأَفْرَانَكَ وَمَعَاجِنَكَ.
BSB
BSB:
The Nile will teem with frogs, and they will come into your palace and up to your bedroom and onto your bed, into the houses of your officials and your people, and into your ovens and kneading bowls.
4
NAV
عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَلَى سَائِرِ حَاشِيَتِكَ تَصْعَدُ الضَّفَادِعُ».
BSB
BSB:
The frogs will come up on you and your people and all your officials.’”
5
NAV
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِهَرُونَ ابْسُطْ يَدَكَ بِعَصَاكَ عَلَى الأَنْهَارِ وَالسَّوَاقِي وَالْبِرَكِ وَأَصْعِدِ الضَّفَادِعَ عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ».
BSB
BSB:
And the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers and canals and ponds, and cause the frogs to come up onto the land of Egypt.’”
6
NAV
فَبَسَطَ هَرُونُ يَدَهُ عَلَى مِيَاهِ مِصْرَ فَأَقْبَلَتِ الضَّفَادِعُ وَغَطَّتْ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ.
BSB
BSB:
So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
7
NAV
وَكَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ السَّحَرَةُ بِسِحْرِهِمْ فَأَصْعَدُوا ضَفَادِعَ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.
BSB
BSB:
But the magicians did the same thing by their magic arts, and they also brought frogs up onto the land of Egypt.
8
NAV
ثُمَّ اسْتَدْعَى فِرْعَوْنُ مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ وَقَالَ: «تَضَرَّعَا إِلَى الرَّبِّ لِيَرْفَعَ الضَّفَادِعَ عَنِّي وَعَنْ شَعْبِي، فَأُطْلِقَ الشَّعْبَ لِيُقَدِّمُوا ذَبَائِحَ لَهُ».
BSB
BSB:
Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to the LORD to take the frogs away from me and my people. Then I will let your people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD.”
9
NAV
فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى فِرْعَوْنَ: «عَيِّنْ لِي مَتَى أُصَلِّي مِنْ أَجْلِكَ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ عَبِيدِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ، لِكَيْ تُبَادَ الضَّفَادِعُ عَنْكَ وَعَنْ بُيُوتِكَ، مَاعَدَا تِلْكَ الْبَاقِيَةَ فِي النَّهْرِ».
BSB
BSB:
Moses said to Pharaoh, “You may have the honor over me. When shall I pray for you and your officials and your people that the frogs (except for those in the Nile) may be taken away from you and your houses?”
10
NAV
فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «غَداً». فَأَجَابَهُ مُوسَى: «فَلْيَكُنْ كَقَوْلِكَ، لِتَعْرِفَ أَنَّهُ لَا مَثِيلَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا.
BSB
BSB:
“Tomorrow,” Pharaoh answered. “May it be as you say,” Moses replied, “so that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.
11
NAV
فَإِنَّ الضَّفَادِعَ سَتَنْسَحِبُ مِنْ حَوْلِكَ وَمِنْ بُيُوتِكَ وَمِنْ حَوْلِ حَاشِيَتِكَ وَشَعْبِكَ، وَلا تَبْقَى إلّا فِي النَّهْرِ».
BSB
BSB:
The frogs will depart from you and your houses and your officials and your people; they will remain only in the Nile.”
12
NAV
وَبَعْدَ أَنِ انْصَرَفَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ صَلَّى مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ الضَّفَادِعِ الَّتِي أَصْعَدَهَا عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ،
BSB
BSB:
After Moses and Aaron had left Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the LORD for help with the frogs that He had brought against Pharaoh.
13
NAV
فَفَعَلَ الرَّبُّ حَسَبَ دُعَاءِ مُوسَى، فَانْقَطَعَتِ الضَّفَادِعُ مِنَ الْبُيُوتِ وَالدُّورِ وَالْحُقُولِ،
BSB
BSB:
And the LORD did as Moses requested, and the frogs in the houses, the courtyards, and the fields died.
14
NAV
فَجمَعُوهَا أَكْوَاماً كَثِيَرةً حَتَّى أَنْتَنَتْ مِنْهَا الأَرْضُ.
BSB

They were piled into countless heaps, and there was a terrible stench in the land.
15
NAV
وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَى فِرْعَوْنُ أَنَّ الْبَلِيَّةَ قَدِ انْقَشَعَتْ، أَغْلَظَ قَلْبَهُ وَلَمْ يَسْتَمِعْ لَهُمَا، تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ.
BSB
BSB:
When Pharaoh saw that there was relief, however, he hardened his heart and would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.
16
NAV
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِهَرُونَ أَنْ يَبْسُطَ يَدَهُ بِعَصَاهُ وَيَضْرِبَ تُرَابَ الأَرْضِ لِيَملأَ الْبَعُوضُ كُلَّ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ».
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, that it may turn into swarms of gnats throughout the land of Egypt.’”
17
NAV
وَهَكَذَا فَعَلا، إِذْ بَسَطَ هَرُونُ يَدَهُ بِعَصَاهُ وَضَرَبَ تُرَابَ الأَرْضِ، فَانْتَشَرَ الْبَعُوضُ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ. فَصَارَ كُلُّ تُرَابِ الأَرْضِ بَعُوضاً فِي جَمِيعِ أَرْجَاءِ مِصْرَ.
BSB
BSB:
This they did, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, gnats came upon man and beast. All the dust of the earth turned into gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
18
NAV
وَكَذَلِكَ حَاوَلَ السَّحَرَةُ بِسِحْرِهِمْ لِيُخْرِجُوا الْبَعُوضَ فَأَخْفَقُوا. وَكَانَ الْبَعُوضُ مُنْتَشِراً عَلَى النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ.
BSB
BSB:
The magicians tried to produce gnats using their magic arts, but they could not. And the gnats remained on man and beast.
19
NAV
فَقَالَ السَّحَرَةُ لِفِرْعَوْنَ «إِنَّهُ فِعْلُ اللهِ». وَلَكِنَّ قَلْبَ فِرْعَوْنَ ظَلَّ مُتَصَلِّباً فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمَا، تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ.

20
NAV
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «انْهَضْ مُبَكِّراً فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَقِفْ أَمَامَ فِرْعَوْنَ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِ إِلَى الْمَاءِ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيَعْبُدُونِي.
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, and when Pharaoh goes out to the water, stand before him and tell him that this is what the LORD says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.

وَإِنْ لَمْ تُطْلِقْ شَعْبِي فَهَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ أَسْرَابَ الذُّبَابِ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى حَاشِيَتِكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَلَى بُيُوتِكَ، فَتَمْتَلِئُ بُيُوتُ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ بِالذُّبَابِ، وَكَذَلِكَ الأَرْضُ الَّتِي يُقِيمُونَ عَلَيْهَا.
BSB
BSB:
But if you will not let My people go, I will send swarms of flies upon you and your officials and your people and your houses. The houses of the Egyptians and even the ground where they stand will be full of flies.

وَلَكِنِّي فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَسْتَثْنِي أَرْضَ جَاسَانَ حَيْثُ يَسْكُنُ شَعْبِي فَلا يَغْزُوهَا الذُّبَابُ، فَتُدْرِكُ أَنَّنِي، أَنَا الرَّبَّ، كَائِنٌ فِي هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ.
BSB
BSB:
But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where My people live; no swarms of flies will be found there. In this way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.

NAV
وَأُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ شَعْبِي وَشَعْبِكَ، فَتَكُونُ هَذِهِ آيَةَ الْغَدِ».

26
NAV
فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى: «لَيْسَ مُسْتَحْسَناً أَنْ نَفْعَلَ هَذَا، لأَنَّ الذَّبَائِحَ الَّتِي نُقَدِّمُهَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا هِي رِجْسٌ لَدَى الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. فَإِنْ قَدَّمْنَا هَذِهِ الذَّبَائِحَ الَّتِي يَكْرَهُهَا الْمِصْرِيُّونَ، أَلا يَرْجُمُونَنَا؟
BSB
BSB:
But Moses replied, “It would not be right to do that, because the sacrifices we offer to the LORD our God would be detestable to the Egyptians. If we offer sacrifices that are detestable before the Egyptians, will they not stone us?
27
NAV
لَكِنْ نَذْهَبُ مَسِيرَةَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ، فَنُقَدِّمُ ذَبَائِحَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا كَمَا أَمَرَنَا».
BSB
BSB:
We must make a three-day journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the LORD our God as He commands us.”
28

BSB:
Pharaoh answered, “I will let you go and sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, but you must not go very far. Now pray for me.”
29
NAV
فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى: «حَالَمَا أَنْصَرِفُ أُصَلِّي إِلَى الرَّبِّ. وَغَداً يَرْتَفِعُ الذُّبَابُ عَنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَنْ حَاشِيَتِهِ وَعَنْ شَعْبِهِ. وَلَكِنْ عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ أَلّا يُخَادِعَ، بَلْ يُطْلِقَ الشَّعْبَ لِيُقَدِّمَ لِلرَّبِّ ذَبَائِحَ».
BSB
BSB:
“As soon as I leave you,” Moses said, “I will pray to the LORD, so that tomorrow the swarms of flies will depart from Pharaoh and his officials and his people. But Pharaoh must not act deceitfully again by refusing to let the people go and sacrifice to the LORD.”
30

BSB
BSB:
But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time as well, and he would not let the people go.
