出谷纪:Chapter 5

出谷纪	Exodus
¹此后，梅瑟同亚郎去见法郎说：「以色列的天主雅威这样说：你应放我的百姓走，好叫他们在旷野里过节敬拜我。」	¹After these things Moses and Aaron went in, and said to Pharao: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Let my people go that they may sacrifice to me in the desert.
²法郎问说：「谁是雅威，我该听他的命，放以色列走？我不认识雅威，也不放以色列走。」	²But he answered: Who is the Lord, that I should hear his voice, and let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go.
³他们回答说：「希伯来人的天主遇见了我们。请让我们走三天的路到旷野里，向上主我们的天主献祭，免得他用瘟疫刀兵击杀我们。」	³And they said: The God of the Hebrews hath called us, to go three days' journey into the wilderness and to sacrifice to the Lord our God: lest a pestilence or the sword fall upon us.
⁴埃及王回答他们说：「梅瑟、亚郎啊！你们为什么妨碍百姓工作呢？去服你们的劳役罢！」	⁴The king of Egypt said to them: Why do you Moses and Aaron draw off the people from their works? Get you gone to your burdens.
⁵法郎又说：「现在他们比本地的人民还多，你们竟然叫他们歇工？」	⁵And Pharao said: The people of the land is numerous: you see that the multitude is increased: how much more if you give them rest from their works?
⁶那一天法郎命令那些百姓中的监工和工头说：	⁶Therefore he commanded the same day the overseers of the works, and the taskmasters of the people, saying:
⁷「你们以后不要再像往日一样，给百姓做砖用的草稭，叫他们自己去拾草。	⁷You shall give straw no more to the people to make brick, as before: but let them go and gather straw.
⁸但你们仍向他们要往日所做的同样砖数，一点也不可减少，因为他们懒惰，所以才呐喊说：我们要去向我们的天主献祭。	⁸And you shall lay upon them the task of bricks, which they did before, neither shall you diminish any thing thereof: for they are idle, and therefore they cry, saying: Let us go and sacrifice to our God.
⁹应给这些人加重工作，使他们只工作，而不听谎言。」	⁹Let them be oppressed, with works, and let them fulfill them: that they may not regard lying words.
¹⁰百姓中的监工头遂出去向百姓说：「法郎这样吩咐：我再不给你们草稭。	¹⁰And the overseers of the works and the taskmasters went out and said to the people: Thus saith Pharao, I allow you no straw:
¹¹你们看那里能找到草稭，就到那里去拾罢！但应有的工作一点也不可减少。」	¹¹Go, and gather it where you can find it: neither shall any thing of your work be diminished.
¹²百姓就分散到埃及全境，拾取麦茎充当草稭。	¹²And the people was scattered through all the land of Egypt to gather straw.
¹³监工催迫说：「你们每天应该完成当天的工作，像从前有草稭时一样。」	¹³And the overseers of the works pressed them, saying: Fulfill your work every day as before you were wont to do when straw was given you.
¹⁴法郎的监工责打他们所派出的以色列子民的工头说：「你们昨天今天为什么没有完成像前天所做的砖数呢？」	¹⁴And they that were over the works of the children of Israel were scourged by Pharao's taskmasters, saying: Why have you not made up the task of bricks both yesterday and today as before?
¹⁵以色列子民的工头遂去向法郎诉苦说：「你为什么这样对待你的仆人们呢？	¹⁵And the officers of the children of Israel came, and cried out to Pharao, saying: Why dealest thou so with thy servants?
¹⁶不给你仆人们草稭，只对我们说：做砖罢！原是你人民的错，你却来打你的仆人们。」	¹⁶Straw is not given us, and bricks are required of us as before: behold we thy servants are beaten with whips, and thy people is unjustly dealt withal.
¹⁷法郎回答说：「你们太懒惰了！所以说：让我们去祭献上主！	¹⁷And he said: You are idle, and therefore you say: Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.
¹⁸现在都快去作工！决不供给你们草稭，但是砖却该如数交上。」	¹⁸Go therefore, and work: straw shall not be given you, and you shall deliver the accustomed number of bricks.
¹⁹以色列子民的工头因所出的命令说：「你们每天应做的砖数，不得减少。」，便知自己更陷于困难中。	¹⁹And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in evil case, because it was said to them: There shall not a whit be diminished of the bricks for every day.
²⁰工头们由法郎那里出来，遇见梅瑟和亚郎正等候他们，	²⁰And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood over against them as they came out from Pharao:
²¹就对他们说：「愿上主鉴察惩罚你们！你们使我们在法郎和他臣仆眼中成了可恨的，就好像把刀交在他们手中，宰杀我们。」	²¹And they said to them: The Lord see and judge, because you have made our savour to stink before Pharao and his servants, and you have given him a sword to kill us.
²²梅瑟回到上主那里说：「吾主，你为什么折磨这百姓？为什么偏偏打发我呢？	²²And Moses returned to the Lord, and said: Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou sent me?
²³自从我到法郎那里，奉你的名讲话以来，他更加折磨这百姓，而你也没有拯救你的百姓。」	²³For since the time that I went in to Pharao to speak in thy name, he hath afflicted thy people: and thou hast not delivered them.
