Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
1耶和華吩咐 摩西 說：「你進去見法老，對他說：『耶和華－ 希伯來 人的上帝這樣說：容我的百姓去，好事奉我。
2But if you continue to restrain them and refuse to let them go,
2你若不肯容他們去，仍舊強留他們，
3then the hand of the LORD will bring a severe plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
3耶和華的手加在你田間的牲畜上，就是在馬、驢、駱駝、牛群、羊群上，必有重重的瘟疫。
4But the LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that no animal belonging to the Israelites will die.’”
4耶和華要分別 以色列 的牲畜和 埃及 的牲畜，凡屬 以色列 人的，一樣都不死。』」
5The LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”
5耶和華就定了時候，說：「明天耶和華必在此地行這事。」
6And the next day the LORD did just that. All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died.
6第二天，耶和華就行這事。 埃及 的牲畜 幾乎 都死了，只是 以色列 人的牲畜，一個都沒有死。
7Pharaoh sent officials and found that none of the livestock of the Israelites had died. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the people go.
7法老打發人去 看 ，誰知 以色列 人的牲畜連一個都沒有死。法老的心卻是固執，不容百姓去。
8Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from the furnace; in the sight of Pharaoh, Moses is to toss it into the air.
8耶和華吩咐 摩西 、 亞倫 說：「你們取幾捧爐灰， 摩西 要在法老面前向天揚起來。
9It will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on man and beast throughout the land.”
9這灰要在 埃及 全地變作塵土，在人身上和牲畜身上成了起泡的瘡。」
10So they took soot from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh. Moses tossed it into the air, and festering boils broke out on man and beast.
10摩西 、 亞倫 取了爐灰，站在法老面前。 摩西 向天揚起來，就在人身上和牲畜身上成了起泡的瘡。
11The magicians could not stand before Moses, because the boils had broken out on them and on all the Egyptians.
11行法術的在 摩西 面前站立不住，因為在他們身上和一切 埃及 人身上都有這瘡。
12But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
12耶和華使法老的心剛硬，不聽他們，正如耶和華對 摩西 所說的。
13Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, stand before Pharaoh, and tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.
13耶和華對 摩西 說：「你清早起來，站在法老面前，對他說：『耶和華－ 希伯來 人的上帝這樣說：容我的百姓去，好事奉我。
14Otherwise, I will send all My plagues against you and your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.
14因為這一次我要叫一切的災殃臨到你和你臣僕並你百姓的身上，叫你知道在普天下沒有像我的。
15For by this time I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the earth.
15我若伸手用瘟疫攻擊你和你的百姓，你早就從地上除滅了。
16But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
16其實，我叫你存立，是特要向你顯我的大能，並要使我的名傳遍天下。
17Still, you lord it over My people and do not allow them to go.
17你還向我的百姓自高，不容他們去嗎？
18Behold, at this time tomorrow I will rain down the worst hail that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded until now.
18到明天約在這時候，我必叫重大的冰雹降下，自從 埃及 開國以來，沒有這樣的冰雹。
19So give orders now to shelter your livestock and everything you have in the field. Every man or beast that remains in the field and is not brought inside will die when the hail comes down upon them.’”
19現在你要打發人把你的牲畜和你田間一切所有的催進來；凡在田間不收回家的，無論是人是牲畜，冰雹必降在他們身上，他們就必死。』」
20Those among Pharaoh’s officials who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their servants and livestock to shelter,
20法老的臣僕中，懼怕耶和華這話的，便叫他的奴僕和牲畜跑進家來。
21but those who disregarded the word of the LORD left their servants and livestock in the field.
21但那不把耶和華這話放在心上的，就將他的奴僕和牲畜留在田裏。
22Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that hail may fall on all the land of Egypt—on man and beast and every plant of the field throughout the land of Egypt.”
22耶和華對 摩西 說：「你向天伸杖，使 埃及 遍地的人身上和牲畜身上，並田間各樣菜蔬上，都有冰雹。」
23So Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning struck the earth. So the LORD rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
23摩西 向天伸杖，耶和華就打雷下雹，有火閃到地上；耶和華下雹在 埃及 地上。
24The hail fell and the lightning continued flashing through it. The hail was so severe that nothing like it had ever been seen in all the land of Egypt from the time it became a nation.
24那時，雹與火攙雜，甚是厲害，自從 埃及 成國以來，遍地沒有這樣的。
25Throughout the land of Egypt, the hail struck down everything in the field, both man and beast; it beat down every plant of the field and stripped every tree.
25在 埃及 遍地，雹擊打了田間所有的人和牲畜，並一切的菜蔬，又打壞田間一切的樹木。
26The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.
26惟獨 以色列 人所住的 歌珊 地沒有冰雹。
27Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This time I have sinned,” he said. “The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
27法老打發人召 摩西 、 亞倫 來，對他們說：「這一次我犯了罪了。耶和華是公義的；我和我的百姓是邪惡的。
28Pray to the LORD, for there has been enough of God’s thunder and hail. I will let you go; you do not need to stay any longer.”
28這雷轟和冰雹已經夠了。請你們求耶和華，我就容你們去，不再留住你們。」
29Moses said to him, “When I have left the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
29摩西 對他說：「我一出城，就要向耶和華舉手 禱告 ；雷必止住，也不再有冰雹，叫你知道全地都是屬耶和華的。
30But as for you and your officials, I know that you still do not fear the LORD our God.”
30至於你和你的臣僕，我知道你們還是不懼怕耶和華上帝。」（
31(Now the flax and barley were destroyed, since the barley was ripe and the flax was in bloom;
31那時，麻和大麥被 雹 擊打；因為大麥已經吐穗，麻也開了花。
32but the wheat and spelt were not destroyed, because they are late crops.)
32只是小麥和粗麥沒有被擊打，因為還沒有長成。）
33Then Moses departed from Pharaoh, went out of the city, and spread out his hands to the LORD. The thunder and hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured down on the land.
33摩西 離了法老出城，向耶和華舉手 禱告 ；雷和雹就止住，雨也不再澆在地上了。
34When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had ceased, he sinned again and hardened his heart—he and his officials.
34法老見雨和雹與雷止住，就越發犯罪；他和他的臣僕都硬着心。
35So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
35法老的心剛硬，不容 以色列 人去，正如耶和華藉着 摩西 所說的。
