Exod.10.1
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
Exod.10.1
GOD said to Moses: "Go to Pharaoh. I've made him stubborn, him and his servants, so that I can force him to look at these signs
Exod.10.1
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his officials so that I may perform these miraculous signs of mine among them
Exod.10.1
Now the LORD said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his servants, that I may show these signs of Mine before him,
Exod.10.1
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Return to Pharaoh and again make your demands. I have made him and his officials stubborn so I can continue to display my power by performing miraculous signs among them.
Exod.10.2
And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.
Exod.10.2
and so you'll be able to tell your children and grandchildren how I toyed with the Egyptians, like a cat with a mouse; you'll tell them the stories of the signs that I brought down on them, so that you'll all know that I am GOD."
Exod.10.2
that you may tell your children and grandchildren how I dealt harshly with the Egyptians and how I performed my signs among them, and that you may know that I am the LORD."
Exod.10.2
and that you may tell in the hearing of your son and your son's son the mighty things I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have done among them, that you may know that I am the LORD."
Exod.10.2
You will be able to tell wonderful stories to your children and grandchildren about the marvelous things I am doing among the Egyptians to prove that I am the LORD."
Exod.10.3
And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
Exod.10.3
Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, "GOD, the God of the Hebrews, says, "How long are you going to refuse to knuckle under? Release my people so that they can worship me.
Exod.10.3
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, "This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, so that they may worship me.
Exod.10.3
So Moses and Aaron came in to Pharaoh and said to him, "Thus says the LORD God of the Hebrews: "How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
Exod.10.3
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, "This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: How long will you refuse to submit to me? Let my people go, so they can worship me.
Exod.10.4
Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast:
Exod.10.4
If you refuse to release my people, watch out; tomorrow I'm bringing locusts into your country.
Exod.10.4
If you refuse to let them go, I will bring locusts into your country tomorrow.
Exod.10.4
Or else, if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.
Exod.10.4
If you refuse, watch out! For tomorrow I will cover the whole country with locusts.
Exod.10.5
And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field:
Exod.10.5
They'll cover every square inch of ground; no one will be able to see the ground. They'll devour everything left over from the hailstorm, even the saplings out in the fields--they'll clear-cut the trees.
Exod.10.5
They will cover the face of the ground so that it cannot be seen. They will devour what little you have left after the hail, including every tree that is growing in your fields.
Exod.10.5
And they shall cover the face of the earth, so that no one will be able to see the earth; and they shall eat the residue of what is left, which remains to you from the hail, and they shall eat every tree which grows up for you out of the field.
Exod.10.5
There will be so many that you won't be able to see the ground. They will devour everything that escaped the hailstorm, including all the trees in the fields.
Exod.10.6
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
Exod.10.6
And they'll invade your houses, filling the houses of your servants, filling every house in Egypt. Nobody will have ever seen anything like this, from the time your ancestors first set foot on this soil until today.'" Then he turned on his heel and left Pharaoh.
Exod.10.6
They will fill your houses and those of all your officials and all the Egyptians-something neither your fathers nor your forefathers have ever seen from the day they settled in this land till now.'" Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh.
Exod.10.6
They shall fill your houses, the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians--which neither your fathers nor your fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day."' And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
Exod.10.6
They will overrun your palaces and the homes of your officials and all the houses of Egypt. Never in the history of Egypt has there been a plague like this one!" And with that, Moses turned and walked out.
Exod.10.7
And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
Exod.10.7
Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long are you going to let this man harass us? Let these people go and worship their GOD. Can't you see that Egypt is on its last legs?"
Exod.10.7
Pharaoh's officials said to him, "How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the people go, so that they may worship the LORD their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt is ruined?"
Exod.10.7
Then Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long shall this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God. Do you not yet know that Egypt is destroyed?"
Exod.10.7
The court officials now came to Pharaoh and appealed to him. "How long will you let these disasters go on? Please let the Israelites go to serve the LORD their God! Don't you realize that Egypt lies in ruins?"
Exod.10.8
And Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your God: but who are they that shall go?
Exod.10.8
So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. He said to them, "Go ahead then. Go worship your GOD. But just who exactly is going with you?"
Exod.10.8
Then Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. "Go, worship the LORD your God," he said. "But just who will be going?"
Exod.10.8
So Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve the LORD your God. Who are the ones that are going?"
Exod.10.8
So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. "All right, go and serve the LORD your God," he said. "But tell me, just whom do you want to take along?"
Exod.10.9
And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the LORD.
Exod.10.9
Moses said, "We're taking young and old, sons and daughters, flocks and herds--this is our worship-celebration of GOD."
Exod.10.9
Moses answered, "We will go with our young and old, with our sons and daughters, and with our flocks and herds, because we are to celebrate a festival to the LORD."
Exod.10.9
And Moses said, "We will go with our young and our old; with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds we will go, for we must hold a feast to the LORD."
Exod.10.9
"Young and old, all of us will go," Moses replied. "We will take our sons and daughters and our flocks and herds. We must all join together in a festival to the LORD."
Exod.10.10
And he said unto them, Let the LORD be so with you, as I will let you go, and your little ones: look to it; for evil is before you.
Exod.10.10
He said, "I'd sooner send you off with GOD's blessings than let you go with your children. Look, you're up to no good--it's written all over your faces.
Exod.10.10
Pharaoh said, "The LORD be with you-if I let you go, along with your women and children! Clearly you are bent on evil.
Exod.10.10
Then he said to them, "The LORD had better be with you when I let you and your little ones go! Beware, for evil is ahead of you.
Exod.10.10
Pharaoh retorted, "The LORD will certainly need to be with you if you try to take your little ones along! I can see through your wicked intentions.
Exod.10.11
Not so: go now ye that are men, and serve the LORD; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
Exod.10.11
Nothing doing. Just the men are going--go ahead and worship GOD. That's what you want so badly." And they were thrown out of Pharaoh's presence.
Exod.10.11
No! Have only the men go; and worship the LORD, since that's what you have been asking for." Then Moses and Aaron were driven out of Pharaoh's presence.
Exod.10.11
Not so! Go now, you who are men, and serve the LORD, for that is what you desired." And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
Exod.10.11
Never! Only the men may go and serve the LORD, for that is what you requested." And Pharaoh threw them out of the palace.
Exod.10.12
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail hath left.
Exod.10.12
GOD said to Moses: "Stretch your hand over Egypt and signal the locusts to cover the land of Egypt, devouring every blade of grass in the country, everything that the hail didn't get."
Exod.10.12
And the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over Egypt so that locusts will swarm over the land and devour everything growing in the fields, everything left by the hail."
Exod.10.12
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land--all that the hail has left."
Exod.10.12
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Raise your hand over the land of Egypt to bring on the locusts. Let them cover the land and eat all the crops still left after the hailstorm."
Exod.10.13
And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
Exod.10.13
Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt. GOD let loose an east wind. It blew that day and night. By morning the east wind had brought in the locusts.
Exod.10.13
So Moses stretched out his staff over Egypt, and the LORD made an east wind blow across the land all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts;
Exod.10.13
So Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
Exod.10.13
So Moses raised his staff, and the LORD caused an east wind to blow all that day and through the night. When morning arrived, the east wind had brought the locusts.
Exod.10.14
And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
Exod.10.14
The locusts covered the country of Egypt, settling over every square inch of Egypt; the place was thick with locusts. There never was an invasion of locusts like it in the past, and never will be again.
Exod.10.14
they invaded all Egypt and settled down in every area of the country in great numbers. Never before had there been such a plague of locusts, nor will there ever be again.
Exod.10.14
And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt and rested on all the territory of Egypt. They were very severe; previously there had been no such locusts as they, nor shall there be such after them.
Exod.10.14
And the locusts swarmed over the land of Egypt from border to border. It was the worst locust plague in Egyptian history, and there has never again been one like it.
Exod.10.15
For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
Exod.10.15
The ground was completely covered, black with locusts. They ate everything, every blade of grass, every piece of fruit, anything that the hail didn't get. Nothing left but bare trees and bare fields--not a sign of green in the whole land of Egypt.
Exod.10.15
They covered all the ground until it was black. They devoured all that was left after the hail-everything growing in the fields and the fruit on the trees. Nothing green remained on tree or plant in all the land of Egypt.
Exod.10.15
For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. So there remained nothing green on the trees or on the plants of the field throughout all the land of Egypt.
Exod.10.15
For the locusts covered the surface of the whole country, making the ground look black. They ate all the plants and all the fruit on the trees that had survived the hailstorm. Not one green thing remained, neither tree nor plant, throughout the land of Egypt.
Exod.10.16
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
Exod.10.16
Pharaoh had Moses and Aaron back in no time. He said, "I've sinned against your GOD and against you.
Exod.10.16
Pharaoh quickly summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.
Exod.10.16
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.
Exod.10.16
Pharaoh quickly sent for Moses and Aaron. "I confess my sin against the LORD your God and against you," he said to them.
Exod.10.17
Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and intreat the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
Exod.10.17
Overlook my sin one more time. Pray to your GOD to get me out of this--get death out of here!"
Exod.10.17
Now forgive my sin once more and pray to the LORD your God to take this deadly plague away from me."
Exod.10.17
Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that He may take away from me this death only."
Exod.10.17
"Forgive my sin only this once, and plead with the LORD your God to take away this terrible plague."
Exod.10.18
And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD.
Exod.10.18
Moses left Pharaoh and prayed to GOD.
Exod.10.18
Moses then left Pharaoh and prayed to the LORD.
Exod.10.18
So he went out from Pharaoh and entreated the LORD.
Exod.10.18
So Moses left Pharaoh and pleaded with the LORD.
Exod.10.19
And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt.
Exod.10.19
GOD reversed the wind--a powerful west wind took the locusts and dumped them into the Red Sea. There wasn't a single locust left in the whole country of Egypt.
Exod.10.19
And the LORD changed the wind to a very strong west wind, which caught up the locusts and carried them into the Red Sea. Not a locust was left anywhere in Egypt.
Exod.10.19
And the LORD turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts away and blew them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the territory of Egypt.
Exod.10.19
The LORD responded by sending a strong west wind that blew the locusts out into the Red Sea. Not a single locust remained in all the land of Egypt.
Exod.10.20
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.
Exod.10.20
But GOD made Pharaoh stubborn as ever. He still didn't release the Israelites.
Exod.10.20
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let the Israelites go.
Exod.10.20
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
Exod.10.20
But the LORD made Pharaoh stubborn once again, and he did not let the people go.
Exod.10.21
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.
Exod.10.21
GOD said to Moses: "Stretch your hand to the skies. Let darkness descend on the land of Egypt--a darkness so dark you can touch it."
Exod.10.21
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness will spread over Egypt-darkness that can be felt."
Exod.10.21
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt."
Exod.10.21
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Lift your hand toward heaven, and a deep and terrifying darkness will descend on the land of Egypt."
Exod.10.22
And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
Exod.10.22
Moses stretched out his hand to the skies. Thick darkness descended on the land of Egypt for three days.
Exod.10.22
So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days.
Exod.10.22
So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.
Exod.10.22
So Moses lifted his hand toward heaven, and there was deep darkness over the entire land for three days.
Exod.10.23
They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Exod.10.23
Nobody could see anybody. For three days no one could so much as move. Except for the Israelites: they had light where they were living.
Exod.10.23
No one could see anyone else or leave his place for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived.
Exod.10.23
They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Exod.10.23
During all that time the people scarcely moved, for they could not see. But there was light as usual where the people of Israel lived.
Exod.10.24
And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.
Exod.10.24
Pharaoh called in Moses: "Go and worship GOD. Leave your flocks and herds behind. But go ahead and take your children."
Exod.10.24
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, "Go, worship the LORD. Even your women and children may go with you; only leave your flocks and herds behind."
Exod.10.24
Then Pharaoh called to Moses and said, "Go, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be kept back. Let your little ones also go with you."
Exod.10.24
Then Pharaoh called for Moses. "Go and worship the LORD," he said. "But let your flocks and herds stay here. You can even take your children with you."
Exod.10.25
And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.
Exod.10.25
But Moses said, "You have to let us take our sacrificial animals and offerings with us so we can sacrifice them in worship to our GOD.
Exod.10.25
But Moses said, "You must allow us to have sacrifices and burnt offerings to present to the LORD our God.
Exod.10.25
But Moses said, "You must also give us sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
Exod.10.25
"No," Moses said, "we must take our flocks and herds for sacrifices and burnt offerings to the LORD our God.
Exod.10.26
Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.
Exod.10.26
Our livestock has to go with us with not a hoof left behind; they are part of the worship of our GOD. And we don't know just what will be needed until we get there."
Exod.10.26
Our livestock too must go with us; not a hoof is to be left behind. We have to use some of them in worshiping the LORD our God, and until we get there we will not know what we are to use to worship the LORD."
Exod.10.26
Our livestock also shall go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind. For we must take some of them to serve the LORD our God, and even we do not know with what we must serve the LORD until we arrive there."
Exod.10.26
All our property must go with us; not a hoof can be left behind. We will have to choose our sacrifices for the LORD our God from among these animals. And we won't know which sacrifices he will require until we get there."
Exod.10.27
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
Exod.10.27
But GOD kept Pharaoh stubborn as ever. He wouldn't agree to release them.
Exod.10.27
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he was not willing to let them go.
Exod.10.27
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.
Exod.10.27
So the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart once more, and he would not let them go.
Exod.10.28
And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
Exod.10.28
Pharaoh said to Moses: "Get out of my sight! And watch your step. I don't want to ever see you again. If I lay eyes on you again, you're dead."
Exod.10.28
Pharaoh said to Moses, "Get out of my sight! Make sure you do not appear before me again! The day you see my face you will die."
Exod.10.28
Then Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me! Take heed to yourself and see my face no more! For in the day you see my face you shall die!"
Exod.10.28
"Get out of here!" Pharaoh shouted at Moses. "Don't ever let me see you again! The day you do, you will die!"
Exod.10.29
And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more.
Exod.10.29
Moses said, "Have it your way. You won't see my face again."
Exod.10.29
"Just as you say," Moses replied, "I will never appear before you again."
Exod.10.29
So Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will never see your face again."
Exod.10.29
"Very well," Moses replied. "I will never see you again."
