von Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft1Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Sage Aaron: Recke deine Hand aus mit deinem Stabe über die Ströme, Kanäle und Sümpfe und lass Frösche über Ägyptenland kommen.2Und Aaron reckte seine Hand aus über die Wasser in Ägypten, und es kamen Frösche herauf und bedeckten Ägyptenland.3Da taten die Zauberer ebenso mit ihren Künsten und ließen Frösche über Ägyptenland kommen. (2Mo 7,11)4Da ließ der Pharao Mose und Aaron rufen und sprach: Bittet den HERRN für mich, dass er die Frösche von mir und von meinem Volk nehme, so will ich das Volk ziehen lassen, dass es dem HERRN opfere. (2Mo 9,28; 2Mo 10,17; 2Mo 24,1)5Mose sprach: Bestimme über mich in deiner Majestät, wann ich für dich, für deine Großen und für dein Volk bitten soll, dass bei dir und in deinem Haus die Frösche vertilgt werden und allein im Nil bleiben.6Er sprach: Morgen. Mose antwortete: Ganz wie du gesagt hast; auf dass du erfahrest, dass niemand ist wie der HERR, unser Gott. (2Mo 9,14; 2Mo 15,11; 5Mo 33,26; 2Sam 7,22; Jer 10,6)7Die Frösche sollen von dir, von deinem Hause, von deinen Großen und von deinem Volk weichen und allein im Nil übrig bleiben.8So gingen Mose und Aaron vom Pharao. Und Mose schrie zu dem HERRN wegen der Frösche, die er über den Pharao gebracht hatte.9Und der HERR tat, wie Mose gesagt hatte, und die Frösche starben in den Häusern, in den Höfen und auf dem Felde.10Und man häufte sie zusammen, hier einen Haufen und da einen Haufen, und das Land stank davon.11Als aber der Pharao merkte, dass er Luft gekriegt hatte, verhärtete er sein Herz und hörte nicht auf sie, wie der HERR gesagt hatte. (2Mo 4,21)
Die dritte Plage: Stechmücken
12Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Sage Aaron: Strecke deinen Stab aus und schlag in den Staub der Erde, dass er zu Stechmücken werde in ganz Ägyptenland.13Sie taten so, und Aaron reckte seine Hand aus mit seinem Stabe und schlug in den Staub auf der Erde. Und es kamen Mücken und setzten sich an die Menschen und an das Vieh; aller Staub der Erde ward zu Mücken in ganz Ägyptenland.14Die Zauberer taten ebenso mit ihren Künsten, um Mücken hervorzubringen; aber sie konnten es nicht. Und die Mücken waren sowohl an den Menschen als am Vieh. (2Mo 7,11)15Da sprachen die Zauberer zum Pharao: Das ist Gottes Finger. Aber das Herz des Pharao wurde verstockt, und er hörte nicht auf sie, wie der HERR gesagt hatte. (Ps 64,10; Ps 72,18; Lk 11,20)
Die vierte Plage: Ungeziefer
16Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Mach dich morgen früh auf und tritt vor den Pharao, wenn er hinaus ans Wasser geht, und sage zu ihm: So spricht der HERR: Lass mein Volk ziehen, dass es mir diene; (2Mo 5,1)17wenn nicht, siehe, so will ich Ungeziefer kommen lassen über dich, deine Großen, dein Volk und dein Haus, dass die Häuser der Ägypter und das Land, auf dem sie wohnen, voller Ungeziefer werden sollen.18An dem Lande Goschen aber, wo sich mein Volk aufhält, will ich an dem Tage etwas Besonderes tun, dass dort kein Ungeziefer sei, damit du innewirst, dass ich der HERR bin, inmitten dieses Landes, (2Mo 7,5)19und ich will einen Unterschied machen zwischen meinem und deinem Volk. Morgen schon soll das Zeichen geschehen.20Und der HERR tat so, und es kam viel Ungeziefer in das Haus des Pharao, in die Häuser seiner Großen und über ganz Ägyptenland, und das Land wurde verheert von dem Ungeziefer.21Da ließ der Pharao Mose und Aaron rufen und sprach: Geht hin, opfert eurem Gott hier im Lande.22Mose sprach: Das geht nicht an, denn was wir dem HERRN, unserm Gott, opfern, ist den Ägyptern ein Gräuel. Siehe, wenn wir vor ihren Augen opfern, was ihnen ein Gräuel ist, werden sie uns dann nicht steinigen? (1Mo 43,32; 1Mo 46,34)23Drei Tagereisen weit wollen wir in die Wüste ziehen und dem HERRN, unserm Gott, opfern, wie er uns gesagt hat. (2Mo 3,18)24Der Pharao sprach: Ich will euch ziehen lassen, dass ihr dem HERRN, eurem Gott, opfert in der Wüste. Nur zieht nicht zu weit und bittet für mich! (2Mo 4,1)25Mose sprach: Siehe, wenn ich jetzt von dir hinausgegangen bin, so will ich den HERRN bitten, dass das Ungeziefer morgen vom Pharao und seinen Großen und seinem Volk weiche; nur täusche uns nicht abermals, dass du das Volk nicht ziehen lässt, dem HERRN zu opfern.26Und Mose ging hinaus vom Pharao und bat den HERRN. (2Mo 8,1)27Und der HERR tat, wie Mose gesagt hatte, und schaffte das Ungeziefer weg vom Pharao, von seinen Großen und von seinem Volk, sodass auch nicht eines übrig blieb.28Aber der Pharao verhärtete sein Herz auch diesmal und ließ das Volk nicht ziehen. (2Mo 4,21)
1[1] Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Let my people go, that they may serve me. (2Mo 3,12; 2Mo 3,18; 2Mo 8,20)2But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your country with frogs. (2Mo 7,14; 2Mo 9,2; Offb 16,13)3The Nile shall swarm with frogs that shall come up into your house and into your bedroom and on your bed and into the houses of your servants and your people,[2] and into your ovens and your kneading bowls. (Ps 105,30)4The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your servants.”’”5[3] And the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the canals and over the pools, and make frogs come up on the land of Egypt!’” (2Mo 7,19)6So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. (Ps 78,45; Ps 105,30)7But the magicians did the same by their secret arts and made frogs come up on the land of Egypt. (2Mo 7,11)8Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron and said, “Plead with the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I will let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.” (2Mo 8,25; 2Mo 8,28; 2Mo 8,30; 2Mo 9,28; 2Mo 10,8; 2Mo 10,17; 2Mo 10,24; 2Mo 12,31; 4Mo 21,7; 1Kön 13,6; Apg 8,24)9Moses said to Pharaoh, “Be pleased to command me when I am to plead for you and for your servants and for your people, that the frogs be cut off from you and your houses and be left only in the Nile.” (2Mo 8,8)10And he said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Be it as you say, so that you may know that there is no one like the Lord our God. (2Mo 7,17; 2Mo 8,22; 2Mo 9,14; 5Mo 33,26; 2Sam 7,22; 1Chr 17,20; Ps 86,8; Jes 46,9; Jer 10,6)11The frogs shall go away from you and your houses and your servants and your people. They shall be left only in the Nile.”12So Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to the Lord about the frogs, as he had agreed with Pharaoh.[4]13And the Lord did according to the word of Moses. The frogs died out in the houses, the courtyards, and the fields.14And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.15But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart and would not listen to them, as the Lord had said. (2Mo 7,14; 2Mo 8,32; 2Mo 9,7; 2Mo 9,34; 2Mo 10,1; Pred 8,11)
The Third Plague: Gnats
16Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, so that it may become gnats in all the land of Egypt.’” (2Mo 7,19)17And they did so. Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, and there were gnats on man and beast. All the dust of the earth became gnats in all the land of Egypt. (Ps 105,31)18The magicians tried by their secret arts to produce gnats, but they could not. So there were gnats on man and beast. (2Mo 7,11)19Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the Lord had said. (2Mo 31,18; Ps 8,3; Lk 11,20)
The Fourth Plague: Flies
20Then the Lord said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and present yourself to Pharaoh, as he goes out to the water, and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Let my people go, that they may serve me. (2Mo 7,15; 2Mo 8,1; 2Mo 9,13)21Or else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and your servants and your people, and into your houses. And the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand.22But on that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, where my people dwell, so that no swarms of flies shall be there, that you may know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.[5] (2Mo 7,17; 2Mo 8,10; 2Mo 9,4; 2Mo 11,7; Mal 3,18)23Thus I will put a division[6] between my people and your people. Tomorrow this sign shall happen.”’”24And the Lord did so. There came great swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh and into his servants’ houses. Throughout all the land of Egypt the land was ruined by the swarms of flies. (Ps 78,45; Ps 105,31; Jes 7,18)25Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God within the land.”26But Moses said, “It would not be right to do so, for the offerings we shall sacrifice to the Lord our God are an abomination to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice offerings abominable to the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us? (1Mo 43,32; 1Mo 46,34)27We must go three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God as he tells us.” (2Mo 3,12; 2Mo 3,18)28So Pharaoh said, “I will let you go to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you must not go very far away. Plead for me.” (2Mo 8,8)29Then Moses said, “Behold, I am going out from you and I will plead with the Lord that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow. Only let not Pharaoh cheat again by not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.” (2Mo 8,15; Jer 42,20)30So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to the Lord.31And the Lord did as Moses asked, and removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; not one remained.32But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and did not let the people go. (2Mo 8,15)
2.Mose 8
King James Version
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:4And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.5And 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.8Then 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?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.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.16And 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' heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.20And 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 .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.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 .25And 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.
