Scene 1 · Intermediate

En advarsel ved floden

A warning at the river

Moses og Aron talte på israelitternes vegne til farao, kongen af Egypten.

Moses and Aaron spoke on behalf of the Israelites to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt.

Gud sagde til Moses: »Farao står fast på sit nej. Han vil ikke lade folket gå. I morgen tidlig, når han går ned til floden, skal du møde ham på bredden. Tag den stav med, der blev til en slange.«

God said to Moses, “Pharaoh stands by his refusal. He will not let the people go. Tomorrow morning, when he goes down to the river, meet him on the bank. Take the staff that turned into a snake.”

Moses skulle sige til farao, at hebræernes Gud havde sendt ham med en besked: »Lad mit folk gå, så de kan tjene mig i ørkenen. Indtil nu har du ikke lyttet. Men nu skal du få at se, at jeg er Gud. Når staven rammer floden, bliver vandet til blod.

Moses was to tell Pharaoh that the God of the Hebrews had sent him with a message: “Let my people go so they can serve me in the wilderness. So far you have not listened. But now you will see that I am God. When the staff strikes the river, the water will turn to blood.”

Fiskene dør, floden kommer til at stinke, og egypterne vil væmmes ved at drikke af den.«

“The fish will die, the river will stink, and the Egyptians will be disgusted at the thought of drinking from it.”

Gud bad også Moses give Aron besked om at række staven ud over Egyptens floder, vandløb, bassiner og damme. Alt vandet skulle blive til blod, selv det, der stod i kar af træ og sten.

God also told Moses to tell Aaron to stretch out the staff over Egypt’s rivers, streams, pools, and ponds. All the water was to turn to blood, even the water in wooden and stone vessels.
