Scene 1 · Beginner
Моисей и Аарон говорили с фараоном, царём Египта, от имени израильтян. Но фараон не хотел отпускать их народ.
Moses and Aaron spoke to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, on behalf of the Israelites. But Pharaoh did not want to let their people go.
Бог велел Моисею утром встретить фараона на берегу реки. Моисей должен был взять посох, который раньше превращался в змею, и передать слова Бога: — Отпусти мой народ, чтобы он служил мне в пустыне. Ты до сих пор меня не слушал. После удара посохом вода в реке станет кровью.
God told Moses to meet Pharaoh on the riverbank in the morning. Moses was to take the staff that had previously turned into a snake and deliver God’s words: “Let my people go, so that they may serve me in the wilderness. You have not listened to me so far. When the staff strikes the river, its water will turn to blood.”
Рыба умрёт, и вода будет так плохо пахнуть, что египтяне не смогут её пить. Тогда ты узнаешь, что я — Господь.
“The fish will die, and the water will smell so bad that the Egyptians will not be able to drink it. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”
Бог также велел Моисею передать Аарону другое указание. Аарон должен был протянуть руку с посохом над реками, ручьями и озёрами Египта. Вся вода должна была стать кровью, даже вода в деревянных и каменных сосудах.
God also told Moses to pass another instruction to Aaron. Aaron was to stretch out his hand with the staff over the rivers, streams, and lakes of Egypt. All the water was to turn to blood, even the water in wooden and stone vessels.
