出埃及記 8:1-32

蛙災

1耶和華對摩西說:「你進宮去告訴法老,『耶和華說,讓以色列百姓離開,好事奉我。 2如果你不聽從,我就使青蛙來毀壞你的國土。 3尼羅河將充滿青蛙,牠們要跳到你的宮裡、臥室和床鋪上,你的臣僕和百姓家裡,你的爐灶和揉麵盆裡。 4青蛙還會跳到你和你的百姓及眾臣僕身上。』」

5耶和華對摩西說:「你叫亞倫埃及各地的江河、溪流和池塘伸杖,使青蛙遍佈埃及全境。」 6亞倫伸杖,青蛙就遍佈了埃及全境。 7巫師也行邪術如法炮製,叫青蛙上來。 8法老召摩西亞倫進宮,對他們說:「你們快求耶和華,使這些青蛙離開我們,我便讓百姓去獻祭給耶和華。」 9摩西對法老說:「好吧,你要我在什麼時候為你以及你的臣僕和百姓禱告,叫這些青蛙離開你和你的宮殿,只留在河裡呢?」 10法老說:「明天。」摩西說:「就照你說的,這樣你就知道沒有神明能比得上我們的上帝耶和華。 11明天青蛙會離開你、你的宮殿、你的臣僕和百姓,只留在河裡。」 12摩西亞倫離開法老後,摩西就為法老所受的蛙災一事向耶和華呼求。 13耶和華答應了摩西的祈求。凡在房屋內、院子裡和田野中的青蛙都死了。 14百姓把青蛙的屍體堆積起來,埃及全境都充滿了死青蛙的腐臭氣味。 15法老看見災難已經過去,便又硬著心,不肯聽從摩西亞倫的話,正如耶和華所言。

虱災

16耶和華對摩西說:「你吩咐亞倫用杖擊打地上的塵土,使埃及境內的塵土變成蝨子。」 17他們就照上帝的吩咐去做,亞倫伸杖擊打地上的塵土,蝨子就跑到人和牲畜身上,全埃及的塵土都變成了蝨子。 18巫師們也試圖用邪術變出蝨子來,卻無法成功。埃及的百姓和牲畜身上長滿了蝨子。 19巫師們對法老說:「這是上帝的作為。」法老的心卻仍然剛硬,不肯答應摩西亞倫的要求,正如耶和華所言。

蒼蠅之災

20耶和華對摩西說:「明天清早,你趁法老去河邊時去見他,告訴他,『耶和華說,放我的子民走,他們好事奉我, 21不然,我就叫無數的蒼蠅飛到你、你的臣僕和百姓身上,進到你們各自的家中,使埃及遍地佈滿蒼蠅。 22但那天,我子民居住的歌珊卻絲毫不會受攪擾,這樣你就知道我耶和華主宰天下。 23我要把我的子民跟你的百姓分開,明天我必行這神蹟。』」 24耶和華果然這樣行。密密麻麻的蒼蠅飛進法老的王宮和他臣僕的家裡,埃及全國都受到蒼蠅的毀壞。 25法老召見摩西亞倫,對他們說:「你們可以去獻祭給你們的上帝,不過要在我的境內舉行。」 26摩西說:「這怎麼行?我們用來獻祭的東西,是埃及人最憎惡的。如果我們在埃及境內舉行這樣的儀式,他們一定會拿石頭打死我們。 27我們要照我們上帝耶和華的吩咐離開這裡,走三天的路程到曠野去獻祭給祂。」 28法老說:「好,我讓你們去曠野獻祭給你們的上帝耶和華,只是不要走得太遠。現在為我祈求吧。」 29摩西說:「我離開這裡就去祈求耶和華,使蒼蠅明天就離開你及你的臣僕和百姓,但這次你不可再食言,阻止以色列人去向耶和華獻祭。」 30摩西說完以後,便離開王宮,去祈求耶和華。 31耶和華就照摩西的祈求,使成群的蒼蠅離開法老及其臣僕和百姓,一隻也沒有留下。 32這一次,法老又硬著心,不肯讓百姓離開埃及

King James Version

Exodus 8:1-32

1And 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. 2And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs: 3And 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:8.3 kneadingtroughs: or, dough 4And 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. 6And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt. 7And 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. 9And 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?8.9 Glory…: or, Have this honour over me, etc8.9 when: or, against when8.9 to destroy: Heb. to cut off 10And 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.8.10 To morrow: or, Against to morrow 11And 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. 12And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh. 13And 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. 14And they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank. 15But 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. 17And 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. 18And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast. 19Then 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. 21Else, 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.8.21 swarms…: or, a mixture of noisome beasts, etc 22And 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. 23And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be.8.23 a division: Heb. a redemption8.23 to morrow: or, by to morrow 24And 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.8.24 corrupted: or, destroyed

25¶ And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land. 26And 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? 27We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us. 28And 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. 29And 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. 30And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the LORD. 31And 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. 32And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
