出エジプト記 9

Studie

   

1 モーセに言われた、「パロのもとに行って、彼に言いなさい、『ヘブルびとのはこう仰せられる、「わたしの民を去らせて、わたしに仕えさせなさい。

2 あなたがもし彼らを去らせることを拒んで、なお彼らを留めおくならば、

3 主のは最も激しい疫病をもって、野にいるあなたの家畜、すなわち、ろば、らくだ、の上に臨むであろう。

4 しかし、イスラエルの家畜と、エジプト家畜を区別され、すべてイスラエルの人々に属するものには一頭も死ぬものがないであろう」と』」。

5 は、また、時を定めて仰せられた、「あす、はこのことをに行うであろう」。

6 あくる日、はこのことを行われたので、エジプトびとの家畜はみな死んだ。しかし、イスラエルの人々の家畜は一頭も死ななかった。

7 パロは人をつかわして見させたが、イスラエルの家畜は一頭も死んでいなかった。それでもパロのはかたくなで、民を去らせなかった。

8 モーセとアロンに言われた、「あなたがたは、かまどのすすを両手いっぱい取り、それをモーセはパロのの前で天にむかって、まき散らしなさい。

9 それはエジプトの全にわたって、細かいちりとなり、エジプトで人とに付いて、うみの出るはれものとなるであろう」。

10 そこで彼らは、かまどのすすを取ってパロのに立ち、モーセは天にむかってこれをまき散らしたので、人とに付いて、うみの出るはれものとなった。

11 魔術師らは、はれもののためにモーセのに立つことができなかった。はれものが魔術師らと、すべてのエジプトびとに生じたからである。

12 しかし、はパロのをかたくなにされたので、彼はモーセに語られたように、彼らの言うことを聞かなかった。

13 はまたモーセに言われた、「早く起き、パロのに立って、彼に言いなさい、『ヘブルびとのはこう仰せられる、「わたしの民を去らせて、わたしに仕えさせなさい。

14 わたしは、こんどは、もろもろの災を、あなたと、あなたの家来と、あなたの民にくだし、わたしに並ぶものが全地にないことを知らせるであろう。

15 わたしがもし、をさし伸べ、疫病をもって、あなたと、あなたの民を打っていたならば、あなたは地から断ち滅ぼされていたであろう。

16 しかし、わたしがあなたをながらえさせたのは、あなたにわたしの力を見させるため、そして、わたしの名が全地に宣べ伝えられるためにほかならない。

17 それに、あなたはなお、わたしの民にむかって、おのれを高くし、彼らを去らせようとしない。

18 ゆえに、あすの今ごろ、わたしは恐ろしく大きなを降らせるであろう。それはエジプトの国が始まったから今まで、かつてなかったほどのものである。

19 それゆえ、いま、人をやって、あなたの家畜と、あなたが野にもっているすべてのものを、のがれさせなさい。人もも、すべて野にあってに帰らないものは降るに打たれて死ぬであろう」と』」。

20 パロの来のうち、主の言葉をおそれる者は、そのしもべと家畜にのがれさせたが、

21 主の言葉を意にとめないものは、そのしもべと家畜を野に残しておいた。

22 モーセに言われた、「あなたのを天にむかってさし伸べ、エジプトの全にわたって、エジプトの地にいる人とのすべての青物の上にを降らせなさい」。

23 モーセが天にむかってつえをさし伸べると、をおくられ、は地にむかって、はせ下った。こうしては、エジプトの地に降らされた。

24 そしてが降り、の間にがひらめき渡った。は恐ろしく大きく、エジプトには、をなしてこのかた、かつてないものであった。

25 エジプトにわたって、すべてにいる人とを打った。はまたのすべての青物を打ち、野のもろもろのを折り砕いた。

26 ただイスラエルの人々のいたゴセンの地には、が降らなかった。

27 そこで、パロは人をつかわし、モーセとアロンを召して言った、「わたしはこんどは罪を犯した。正しく、わたしと、わたしの民は悪い。

28 に祈願してください。このはもうじゅうぶんです。わたしはあなたがたを去らせます。もはやとどまらなくてもよろしい」。

29 モーセは彼に言った、「わたしはを出ると、すぐ、にむかってわたしの手を伸べひろげます。するとはやみ、はもはや降らなくなり、あなたは、地が主のものであることを知られましょう。

30 しかし、あなたとあなたの家来たちは、なお、なる恐れないことを、わたしは知っています」。

31 ――亜麻と大麦は打ち倒された。大麦は穂を出し、亜麻は花が咲いていたからである。

32 小麦とスペルタ麦はおくてであるため打ち倒されなかった。――

33 モーセはパロのもとを去り、を出て、にむかって手を伸べひろげたので、はやみ、は地に降らなくなった。

34 ところがパロはがやんだのを見て、またも罪を犯し、をかたくなにした。彼も家来も、そうであった。

35 すなわちパロはをかたくなにし、モーセによって語られたように、イスラエルの人々を去らせなかった。

7599. 'And [as for] you and your servants, I know that you do not yet fear the face of Jehovah God' means that those engaged in molestation do not yet live in fear of the Lord. This is clear from the representation of 'Pharaoh and his servants' as those who engage in molestation, dealt with before; and from the meaning of '[not yet] fearing the face of Jehovah' as having no fear of the Lord, the Lord being 'Jehovah' in the Word, see the places quoted immediately above in 7598. The expression 'the face of Jehovah' is used because it means mercy, and from this, peace and all good, 222, 223, 5585, and in the contrary sense the absence of mercy, peace, and good, 5585, 5592, 5816, 5823. The reason why the absence of mercy, peace, and good is meant by 'the face of Jehovah' is that the evil turn away from Jehovah or the Lord; for they turn away from the good of charity and the truth of faith in which the Lord is present. They then have what is the Lord's behind their back, and what is their own facing them; and what is behind their back they neither see nor care about. All evil stems from this, consequently human unhappiness and hell.

Exodus 9

Studie

   

1 Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, 'This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: "Let my people Go, that they may serve me.

2 For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,

3 behold, the hand of Yahweh is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.

4 Yahweh will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel."'"

5 Yahweh appointed a set time, saying, "Tomorrow Yahweh shall do this thing in the land."

6 Yahweh did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.

7 Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn't let the people go.

8 Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron, "Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.

9 It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with boils on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt."

10 They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward the sky; and it became a boil breaking forth with boils on man and on animal.

11 The magicians couldn't stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians, and on all the Egyptians.

12 Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn't listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.

13 Yahweh said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, 'This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: "Let my people go, that they may serve me.

14 For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth.

15 For now I would have put forth my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;

16 but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth;

17 as you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won't let them go.

18 Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.

19 Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. Every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn't brought home, the hail shall come down on them, and they shall die."'"

20 Those who feared the word of Yahweh among the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.

21 Whoever didn't respect the word of Yahweh left his servants and his livestock in the field.

22 Yahweh said to Moses, "Stretch forth your hand toward the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt."

23 Moses stretched forth his rod toward the heavens, and Yahweh sent thunder, hail, and lightning flashed down to the earth. Yahweh rained hail on the land of Egypt.

24 So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

25 The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.

26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

27 Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, "I have sinned this time. Yahweh is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.

28 Pray to Yahweh; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer."

29 Moses said to him, "As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands to Yahweh. The thunders shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is Yahweh's.

30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you don't yet fear Yahweh God."

31 The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was in bloom.

32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.

33 Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands to Yahweh; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.

34 When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.

35 The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn't let the children of Israel go, just as Yahweh had spoken through Moses.
