Exodo 7
Ang Biblia, 2001
Ang Pagkasugo nina Moises at Aaron
7 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, “Tingnan mo, ginawa kita bilang Diyos kay Faraon, at si Aaron na iyong kapatid ay magiging iyong propeta.
2 Iyong sasabihin ang lahat ng aking iniuutos sa iyo; at sasabihin kay Faraon ni Aaron na iyong kapatid upang pahintulutan ang mga anak ni Israel na lumabas sa kanyang lupain.
3 Subalit(A) aking papatigasin ang puso ni Faraon at aking pararamihin ang aking mga tanda at mga kababalaghan sa lupain ng Ehipto.
4 Ngunit si Faraon ay hindi makikinig sa inyo at aking ipapatong sa Ehipto ang aking kamay at ilalabas ko ang aking mga hukbo, ang aking bayan, na mga anak ni Israel, sa lupang Ehipto sa pamamagitan ng mga dakilang gawa ng paghatol.
5 Malalaman ng mga Ehipcio na ako ang Panginoon, kapag iniunat ko sa Ehipto ang aking kamay, at inilabas ko ang mga anak ni Israel mula sa kanila.”
6 Gayon ang ginawa ni Moises at ni Aaron; kung ano ang iniutos ng Panginoon sa kanila ay gayon ang ginawa nila.
7 Si Moises noon ay walumpung taong gulang at si Aaron ay walumpu't tatlong taong gulang nang sila'y makipag-usap kay Faraon.
Tanda ng Tungkod ni Aaron
8 Nagsalita ang Panginoon kina Moises at Aaron,
9 “Kapag sinabi ni Faraon sa inyo, ‘Patunayan ninyo ang inyong mga sarili sa pamamagitan ng kababalaghan;’ at iyo ngang sasabihin kay Aaron, ‘Kunin mo ang iyong tungkod at ihagis mo sa harap ni Faraon, upang ito'y maging isang ahas.’”
10 Kaya't sina Moises at Aaron ay pumunta kay Faraon at kanilang ginawa ang ayon sa iniutos ng Panginoon. Inihagis ni Aaron ang kanyang tungkod sa harap ni Faraon at ng kanyang mga lingkod at ito'y naging ahas.
11 Nang magkagayo'y ipinatawag naman ni Faraon ang mga pantas at ang mga manggagaway, at ang mga salamangkero sa Ehipto ay gumawa ng gayundin ayon sa kanilang mga lihim na kaalaman.
12 Inihagis ng bawat isa ang kanya-kanyang tungkod at naging mga ahas. Ngunit nilamon ng tungkod ni Aaron ang mga tungkod nila.
13 Ang puso ni Faraon ay nagmatigas pa rin, at hindi niya pinakinggan sila gaya ng sinabi ng Panginoon.
Pinagmatigas ni Faraon ang Kanyang Puso
14 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, “Ang puso ni Faraon ay nagmamatigas, ayaw niyang paalisin ang bayan.
15 Pumunta ka kay Faraon kinaumagahan habang siya'y patungo sa tubig. Tumayo ka sa tabi ng ilog upang harapin siya, at ang tungkod na naging ahas ay hawakan mo.
16 Sasabihin mo sa kanya, ‘Sinugo ako sa iyo ng Panginoon, ang Diyos ng mga Hebreo, na sinasabi, “Payagan mong umalis ang aking bayan, upang sila'y makasamba sa akin sa ilang.” Ngunit hanggang ngayon hindi mo pa tinutupad.’
17 Kaya't(B) ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, “Sa pamamagitan nito ay makikilala mo na ako ang Panginoon.” Tingnan mo, aking hahampasin ng tungkod na nasa aking kamay ang tubig na nasa ilog at ito'y magiging dugo.
18 Ang mga isda na nasa ilog ay mamamatay, ang ilog ay babaho, at ang mga Ehipcio ay mandidiring uminom ng tubig sa Nilo.’”
19 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, “Sabihin mo kay Aaron, ‘Kunin mo ang iyong tungkod at iunat mo ang iyong kamay sa tubig sa Ehipto, sa kanilang mga ilog, sa kanilang mga bambang, at sa kanilang mga lawa at sa lahat nilang tipunan ng tubig, upang maging dugo ang mga ito; at magkakaroon ng dugo sa buong lupain ng Ehipto, maging sa mga sisidlang kahoy at maging sa mga sisidlang bato.’”
Ang Tubig ay Naging Dugo
20 Gayon ang ginawa nina Moises at Aaron, gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon. Kanyang itinaas ang tungkod at hinampas ang tubig na nasa ilog, sa paningin ni Faraon at ng kanyang mga lingkod, at ang lahat ng tubig na nasa ilog ay naging dugo.
21 Ang mga isda sa ilog ay namatay at ang ilog ay bumaho at ang mga Ehipcio ay hindi makainom ng tubig sa ilog; at nagkaroon ng dugo sa buong lupain ng Ehipto.
22 Subalit ang mga salamangkero sa Ehipto ay gumawa ng gayundin sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga lihim na kaalaman. Ang puso ni Faraon ay nagmatigas, at ayaw niyang pakinggan sila, gaya ng sinabi ng Panginoon.
23 Si Faraon ay tumalikod at umuwi sa kanyang bahay, na hindi man lamang niya inilagay ito sa kanyang puso.
24 Lahat ng mga Ehipcio ay humukay sa palibot ng ilog upang makakuha ng tubig na maiinom, sapagkat hindi nila mainom ang tubig sa ilog.
25 Pitong araw ang lumipas pagkatapos na hampasin ng Panginoon ang ilog.
Exodus 7
New International Version
7 Then the Lord said to Moses, “See, I have made you like God(A) to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.(B) 2 You are to say everything I command you, and your brother Aaron is to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his country. 3 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart,(C) and though I multiply my signs and wonders(D) in Egypt, 4 he will not listen(E) to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment(F) I will bring out my divisions,(G) my people the Israelites. 5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord(H) when I stretch out my hand(I) against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of it.”
6 Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord commanded(J) them. 7 Moses was eighty years old(K) and Aaron eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Aaron’s Staff Becomes a Snake
8 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 9 “When Pharaoh says to you, ‘Perform a miracle,(L)’ then say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,’ and it will become a snake.”(M)
10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the Lord commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake. 11 Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers,(N) and the Egyptian magicians(O) also did the same things by their secret arts:(P) 12 Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Yet Pharaoh’s heart(Q) became hard and he would not listen(R) to them, just as the Lord had said.
The Plague of Blood
14 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is unyielding;(S) he refuses to let the people go. 15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning as he goes out to the river.(T) Confront him on the bank of the Nile,(U) and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake. 16 Then say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you: Let my people go, so that they may worship(V) me in the wilderness. But until now you have not listened.(W) 17 This is what the Lord says: By this you will know that I am the Lord:(X) With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood.(Y) 18 The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink;(Z) the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water.’”(AA)
19 The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff(AB) and stretch out your hand(AC) over the waters of Egypt—over the streams and canals, over the ponds and all the reservoirs—and they will turn to blood.’ Blood will be everywhere in Egypt, even in vessels[a] of wood and stone.”
20 Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had commanded.(AD) He raised his staff in the presence of Pharaoh and his officials and struck the water of the Nile,(AE) and all the water was changed into blood.(AF) 21 The fish in the Nile died, and the river smelled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink its water. Blood was everywhere in Egypt.
22 But the Egyptian magicians(AG) did the same things by their secret arts,(AH) and Pharaoh’s heart(AI) became hard; he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had said. 23 Instead, he turned and went into his palace, and did not take even this to heart. 24 And all the Egyptians dug along the Nile to get drinking water(AJ), because they could not drink the water of the river.
The Plague of Frogs
25 Seven days passed after the Lord struck the Nile.

Exodus 7
King James Version
7 And the Lord said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
2 Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.
3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
6 And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
7 And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.
8 And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.
10 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the Lord had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had said.
14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go.
15 Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the river's brink against he come; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand.
16 And thou shalt say unto him, The Lord God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear.
17 Thus saith the Lord, In this thou shalt know that I am the Lord: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
18 And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.
19 And the Lord spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and that there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.
20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
21 And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
22 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the Lord had said.
23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he set his heart to this also.
24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
25 And seven days were fulfilled, after that the Lord had smitten the river.
