Esodo 7

Studie

   

1 E il Signore disse a Mosè: Vedi, io ti ho costituito per essere in luogo di Dio a Faraone; ed Aaronne, tuo fratello, sarà tuo profeta.

2 Tu dirai tutte le cose che io ti avrò comandate; e parli Aaronne, tuo fratello, a Faraone, acciocchè lasci andar dal suo paese i figliuoli d’Israele.

3 Ma io indurerò il cuor di Faraone; e moltiplicherò i miei segni ed i miei prodigi nel paese di Egitto.

4 E pur ancora Faraone non vi porgerà orecchio; ma io metterò la mia mano in sul paese di Egitto e trarrò fuor del paese di Egitto le mie schiere, il mio popolo, i figliuoli d’Israele, con grandi giudicii.

5 E gli Egizj conosceranno che io sono il Signore, quando avrò stesa la mia mano in su l’Egitto, e avrò tratti fuori d’infra loro i figliuoli d’Israele.

6 E Mosè ed Aaronne fecero così; essi fecero intieramente come il Signore avea lor comandato.

7 Ora, Mosè era d’età di ottant’anni, e Aaronne di ottantatrè anni, quando parlarono a Faraone.

8 E il Signore parlò a Mosè e ad Aaronne, dicendo:

9 Quando Faraone parlerà a voi, e vi dirà: Fate un prodigio; tu Mosè, di’ ad Aaronne: Prendi la tua bacchetta, e gittala davanti a Faraone; ed ella diverrà un serpente.

10 Mosè adunque ed Aaronne vennero a Faraone, e fecero come il Signore avea comandato. Ed Aaronne gittò la sua bacchetta davanti a Faraone, e davanti ai suoi servitori; ed ella divenne un serpente.

11 Allora Faraone chiamò eziandio i savi e gl’incantatori. E i Magi di Egitto fecero anch’essi il simigliante co’ loro incantesimi.

12 E ciascun d’essi gittò la sua bacchetta, ed esse divennero serpenti; ma la bacchetta di Aaronne tranghiottì le lor bacchette.

13 E il cuore di Faraone s’indurò, e non porse orecchio a Mosè e ad Aaronne; secondo che il Signore ne avea parlato.

14 E IL Signore disse a Mosè: Il cuor di Faraone è aggravato; egli ricusa di lasciare andare il popolo.

15 Va’ questa mattina a Faraone; ecco egli uscirà fuori verso l’acqua, e presentati innanzi a lui in su la riva del fiume, e prendi in mano la bacchetta ch’è stata cangiata in serpente.

16 E digli: Il Signore Iddio degli Ebrei mi avea mandato a te, dicendo: Lascia andare il mio popolo, acciocchè mi serva nel deserto; ed ecco, fino a qui tu non hai ubbidito.

17 Così ha detto il Signore: Da questo conoscerai che io sono il Signore: ecco, io darò una percossa con la bacchetta che io ho in mano, in su le acque che son nel fiume, ed esse saranno cangiate in sangue.

18 E il pesce che è nel fiume morrà, e il fiume putirà; e gli Egizj si stancheranno per bere dell’acqua del fiume.

19 E il Signore disse a Mosè: Di’ ad Aaronne: Prendi la tua bacchetta, e stendi la tua mano sopra le acque degli Egizj, sopra i lor fiumi, sopra i lor rivi, sopra i loro stagni, e sopra ogni raccolta delle loro acque; ed esse diverranno sangue; e vi sarà sangue per tutto il paese di Egitto, eziandio ne’ vasi di legno e di pietra.

20 E Mosè ed Aaronne fecero come il Signore avea comandato; e Aaronne alzò la bacchetta, e ne percosse le acque ch’erano nel fiume, nel cospetto di Faraone, e nel cospetto dei suoi servitori; e tutte le acque, ch’erano nel fiume, furono cangiate in sangue.

21 E il pesce, ch’era nel fiume, morì, e il fiume putì, talchè gli Egizj non potevano ber delle acque del fiume: e vi fu sangue per tutto il paese di Egitto.

22 E i magi di Egitto fecero il simigliante co’ loro incantesimi; e il cuor di Faraone s’indurò, e non porse orecchio a Mosè e ad Aaronne, come il Signore ne avea parlato.

23 E Faraone, rivoltosi indietro, se ne venne in casa sua; e non pure a questo pose mente.

24 E tutti gli Egizj, cavando intorno al fiume, cercavano acqua da bere; conciossiachè non potessero ber delle acque del fiume.

25 E sette giorni intieri passarono, dopo che il Signore ebbe percosso il fiume.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

7264. Exodus 7

1. And Jehovah said to Moses, See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

2. You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, to 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. And Pharaoh will not hear 1 you; and I will lay My hand on the Egyptians, and will lead My armies, My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt with great judgements.

5. And the Egyptians will know that I am Jehovah, when I stretch out My hand over the Egyptians; and I will lead the children of Israel out of the midst of them.

6. And Moses and Aaron did so; as Jehovah had commanded them, so they did.

7. And Moses was a son of eighty years, and Aaron a son of eighty-three years, when they spoke to Pharaoh.

8. And Jehovah said to Moses and to Aaron - He said,

9. When Pharaoh says to you - when he says, Perform a wonder; 2 you shall say to Aaron, Take your rod and throw it down in front of Pharaoh. It will then be a water-serpent.

10. And Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did so, as Jehovah had commanded; and Aaron threw down his rod in front of Pharaoh, and in front of his servants, and it was made into a water-serpent.

11. And Pharaoh also called the wise men and sorcerers, and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did so with their enchantments.

12. And they threw down each one his rod, and they were made into water-serpents; and Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

13. And Pharaoh's heart was unyielding, and he did not hear 1 them, as Jehovah had spoken.

14. And Jehovah said to Moses, Pharaoh's heart is inflexible; he refuses to send the people away.

15. Go to Pharaoh in the morning; behold, he goes out to the water. And you are to stand so as to meet him beside the bank of the river; and the rod which was turned into a serpent, take in your hand.

16. And you shall say to him, Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, Send My people away, and let them serve Me in the wilderness; and behold, you have not heard up to now.

17. Thus said Jehovah, In this you will know that I am Jehovah - behold, I strike with the rod which is in my hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they will be turned into blood.

18. And the fish that are in the river will die, and the river will stink; and the Egyptians will find it difficult 3 to drink water from the river.

19. And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over every gathering of their waters, and they will be blood; and there will be blood in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.

20. And Moses and Aaron did so, as Jehovah had commanded; and he lifted up the rod and struck the waters which were in the river, before the eyes of Pharaoh and before the eyes of his servants. And all the waters which were in the river were converted into blood.

21. And the fish which were in the river died, and the river stank, and the Egyptians were unable to drink water from the river; and there was blood in the entire land of Egypt.

22. And the magicians of Egypt did the same with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart was unyielding, and he did not hear 1 them, as Jehovah had spoken.

23. And Pharaoh looked back and went to his house, and he did not take even this to heart. 4

24. And all the Egyptians dug round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink from the waters of the river.

25. And seven days were fulfilled after Jehovah struck the river. 5

26. And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to Pharaoh, and you shall say to him, Thus says Jehovah, Send My people away, and let them serve Me.

27. And if you refuse to send them away, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs.

28. And the river will cause the frogs to crawl forth, and they will rise up and come into your house, and into your bedchamber, and onto your bed, and into the house of your servants, and onto your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls.

29. And onto you, and onto your people, and onto all your servants the frogs will rise up.
