出埃及记第7章

《圣经》出埃及记-第7章

出7:1 耶和华对摩西说：“我使你在法老面前代替上帝，你的哥哥亚伦是替你说话的。 (串)出4:16

†[吕]永恒主对摩西说：“看哪，我使你在法老面前像个神明；你哥哥亚伦要替你做发言人。

†[思]上主向梅瑟说：“看，我使你在法朗前像神一样，你的哥哥亚郎将作你的代言人。

†[当代]主对摩西说：“你在法老面前要把自己当作我的使节，你哥哥亚伦是你的发言人。

†[新译]耶和华对摩西说：“看哪，我使你在法老面前好像　神一样；你哥哥亚伦要作你的先知。

†[Wlb]耶和华谕摩西曰、我使尔于法老、如为上帝、尔兄亚伦、代尔发言、

†[Xdv]上主说：“我要使你在国王面前像上帝一般，而你的哥哥亚伦要向他发言，作你的代言人。

†[Kjv]And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

†[Nkjv]So the LORD said to Moses: "See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.

†[BBE]And the Lord said to Moses, See I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

†[GNT] The Lord said, "I am going to make you like God to the king, and your brother Aaron will speak to him as your prophet.

†[NIV]Then the Lord said to Moses, "See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.

本会注释　　在法老面前代替上帝。摩西的上一次异议（出6:12；在30节中予以重复）被上帝排除了。摩西不愿意再次出现在世俗地位极高法老面前。但上帝提醒他，作为天地之神的代表，他的地位比法老更高。法老的能力只不过是人的，他的能力却是上帝的。他要在法老面前代表上帝，拥有需要服从的权柄和能力。
　　是替你说话的。KJV版为“你的先知”。正如先知是上帝的代言人，亚伦也要成为摩西的代言人，向法老和以色列人解释他的吩咐（见出4:16）。

出7:2 凡我所吩咐你的，你都要说。你的哥哥亚伦要对法老说，容以色列人出他的地。

†[吕]凡我所吩咐你的、你都要说；你哥哥亚伦要告诉法老，叫他让以色列人出他的地。

†[思]凡我吩咐你的一切，你要告诉你的哥哥亚郎，要他对法朗讲话，叫他放以色列子民离开他的国境。

†[当代]我吩咐你的话，你都要告诉亚伦，这样，他就可以代你要求法老释放以色列人出埃及。

†[新译]我吩咐你的一切，你都要说；你哥哥亚伦要告诉法老，法老就让以色列人离开他的地。

†[Wlb]我所谕尔者、当悉言之、尔兄亚伦宜告法老、俾释以色列人出其境、

†[Xdv]你要把我命令你说的话都告诉亚伦，由他告诉国王，要他释放以色列人离开这个国家。

†[Kjv]Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.

†[Nkjv]You shall speak all that I command you. And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land.

†[BBE]Say whatever I give you orders to say: and Aaron your brother will give word to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

†[GNT] Tell Aaron everything I command you, and he will tell the king to let the Israelites leave his country.

†[NIV]You are to say everything I command you, and your brother Aaron is to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his country.

出7:3 我要使法老的心刚硬，也要在埃及地多行神迹奇事。 (串)出4:21|出3:20;11:9诗105:27;135:9

†[吕]我必使法老的心刚硬；我必在埃及地多行我的神迹奇事；

†[思]我却要使法朗心硬，为此在埃及国要增多我的奇迹和异事。

†[当代]可是，我要使法老的心刚硬，好叫我可以在埃及施行更多的神迹奇事。

†[新译]我要使法老心硬，我也要在埃及地加增我的神迹奇事。

†[Wlb]我将使之刚愎厥心、且多行我之异迹奇事于埃及、

†[Xdv]但我要使国王的心刚硬，无论我对埃及行多少神迹奇事，他还是不听你的话。

†[Kjv]And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

†[Nkjv]And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.

†[BBE]And I will make Pharaoh's heart hard, and my signs and wonders will be increased in the land of Egypt.

†[GNT] But I will make the king stubborn, and he will not listen to you, no matter how many terrifying things I do in Egypt. Then I will bring severe punishment on Egypt and lead the tribes of my people out of the land.

†[NIV]But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I multiply my miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt,

本会注释　　我要使……刚硬。见@出4:21@注释。
　　多行神迹奇事。这里第一次指出，上帝的旨意是要通过一系列的神迹向以色列人和埃及人显示祂的大能。此前已施行了三个神迹（出4:3-9），提到十灾中的一个（出4:23）。现在将要出现大量的神迹奇事，远远超过摩西的预料（出3:20；6:6）。

出7:4 但法老必不听你们；我要伸手重重的刑罚埃及，将我的军队以色列民从埃及地领出来。 (串)出6:26

†[吕]法老不听你们，我必下手打埃及，用大判罚、将我的军队、我的人民、以色列人、从埃及地领出来。

†[思]但因法朗不听从你们，我要向埃及伸手，藉严厉的惩罚，将我的军队，我的百姓以色列子民，从埃及国领出来。

†[当代]倘若他还是无动于衷，那时，我就会用大灾难惩罚埃及，然后领导我的子民离开埃及；

†[新译]可是法老不听你们的话，我必下手击打埃及；借着严厉的刑罚把我的军队，我的人民以色列人，从埃及地领出来。

†[Wlb]法老必不听尔、我将伸手于埃及、降以巨灾、导我军旅以色列民出其境、

†[Xdv]最后我要严厉地惩罚埃及；我要领我子民的各支族离开这地方。

†[Kjv]But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies, and my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

†[Nkjv]But Pharaoh will not heed you, so that I may lay My hand on Egypt and bring My armies and My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

†[BBE]But Pharaoh will not give ear to you, and I will put my hand on Egypt, and take my armies, my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt, after great punishments.

†[GNT] －

†[NIV]he will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring out my divisions, my people the Israelites.

本会注释　　我要伸手重重的刑罚埃及。上帝已经预见到法老的顽固。如果他决意抗拒上帝的旨意，他是有权这样做的。于是上帝将大大显示祂的神能，以引起埃及全地和周围民族的注意。结果，真神的大能和威严将受到尊重。各国的人都将不敢与祂的子民作对（见出15:14-16；申2:25；11:25等）。
　　我的军队。直译为“我的众军”。以色列人离开埃及时，“没有武装，不习惯打仗”（《先祖与先知》第282页；又见@出13:18@注释）。他们的行军组织在离开歌珊时还没有完全建立起来，一直到西奈山时才组建完毕。

出7:5 我伸手攻击埃及，将以色列人从他们中间领出来的时候，埃及人就要知道我是耶和华。” (串)本章17出8:10,22;14:4,18

†[吕]我伸手攻击埃及、将以色列人从他们中间领出来时，埃及人就知道我乃是永恒主。”

†[思]当我向埃及人伸手，将以色列子民从埃及人中间领出来的时候，他们要承认我是上主。”

†[当代]埃及人看见我用大能带领以色列人，就知道我是耶和华了。”

†[新译]我向埃及伸手，把以色列人从他们中间领出来的时候，埃及人就必知道我是耶和华。”

†[Wlb]我伸手于埃及、导以色列民出其间、则埃及人知我为耶和华、

†[Xdv]当我伸手惩罚他们，以色列人离开他们国土的时候，他们就知道我是上主。”

†[Kjv]And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.

†[Nkjv]And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch out My hand on Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them."

†[BBE]And the Egyptians will see that I am the Lord, when my hand is stretched out over Egypt, and I take the children of Israel out from among them.

†[GNT] The Egyptians will then know that I am the Lord, when I raise my hand against them and bring the Israelites out of their country."

†[NIV]And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of it."

本会注释　　法老假装不知道希伯来人的上帝（出5:2），但上帝向摩西保证说埃及人将充分认识祂。他们将不得不承认祂是唯一的真神。其他所谓的神都不过是木头和石头。

出7:6 摩西、亚伦这样行；耶和华怎样吩咐他们，他们就照样行了。

†[吕]摩西亚伦就这样行：永恒主怎样吩咐他们，他们就怎样行。

†[思]梅瑟和亚郎就受命行事；上主怎样吩咐，他们就怎样行了。

†[当代]于是，摩西、亚伦就按著上帝的话去行了。

†[新译]摩西和亚伦这样行了；耶和华怎样吩咐摩西和亚伦，他们就照样行了。

†[Wlb]摩西亚伦遵耶和华命而行、

†[Xdv]摩西和亚伦照着上主的命令去做。

†[Kjv]And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded them, so did they.

†[Nkjv]Then Moses and Aaron did so; just as the LORD commanded them, so they did.

†[BBE]And Moses and Aaron did so: as the Lord gave them orders, so they did.

†[GNT] Moses and Aaron did what the Lord commanded.

†[NIV]Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord commanded them.

本会注释　　从此以后，摩西和亚伦对上帝的顺从是一贯和毫无疑问的，除了那次亚伦带领百姓拜金牛犊（出32:21-24），和摩西在奉命对磐石说话时却击打了磐石（民20:8-11）。

出7:7 摩西、亚伦与法老说话的时候，摩西八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。 (串)申29:5徒7:23,30

†[吕]摩西亚伦和法老说话的时候，摩西八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。

†[思]当他们去与法朗会谈的时候，梅瑟八十岁，亚郎八十叁岁。

†[当代]那时，摩西已经八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。

†[新译]摩西和亚伦与法老说话的时候，摩西八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。

†[Wlb]语法老时、摩西年八十、亚伦八十有三、

†[Xdv]他们跟国王交涉的时候，摩西已经八十岁，亚伦八十三岁。

†[Kjv]And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh.

†[Nkjv]And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.

†[BBE]And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they gave the Lord's word to Pharaoh.

†[GNT] At the time when they spoke to the king, Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron was eighty-three.

†[NIV]Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh.

本会注释　　摩西去世时是一百二十岁（申31:2；34:7）。他的去世是在出埃及以后四十年（申29:5）。亚伦的寿命是一百二十三岁（民33:38,39）。

出7:8 耶和华晓谕摩西、亚伦说：

†[吕]永恒主对摩西亚伦说：

†[思]上主对梅瑟和亚郎说：“

†[当代]上帝对摩西、亚伦说：

†[新译]耶和华告诉摩西和亚伦说：

†[Wlb]耶和华谕摩西亚伦曰、

†[Xdv]上主对摩西和亚伦说：

†[Kjv]And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

†[Nkjv]Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,

†[BBE]And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

†[GNT] The Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

†[NIV]The Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

出7:9 “法老若对你们说：‘你们行件奇事吧！’你就吩咐亚伦说：‘把杖丢在法老面前，使杖变作蛇。’” (串)约4:48

†[吕]“法老若对你们说：‘施一件奇事来证明你们自己吧”，你就要对亚伦说：‘拿你的手杖、丢在法老面前，使它变为蛇。’”

†[思]如果法朗要求你们说：你们显个奇迹，给你们作证罢！你就吩咐亚郎说：将你的棍杖扔在法朗的面前，棍杖就会变成一条蛇。”

†[当代]“倘若法老要你们行神迹给他看，你就吩咐亚伦把手杖丢在法老面前，杖便会变作蛇。”

†[新译]“如果法老告诉你们说：‘你们行件奇事吧’，你就要对亚伦说：‘拿你的手杖来，把它丢在法老面前，它就会变作蛇。’”

†[Wlb]法老命尔行奇事以为征、可令亚伦执杖、掷于其前、俾化为蛇、

†[Xdv]“如果国王要你们行一个神迹来证明你们的身份，你要吩咐亚伦把他的杖扔在国王面前，那根杖会变为蛇。”

†[Kjv]When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.

†[Nkjv]"When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, "Show a miracle for yourselves,' then you shall say to Aaron, "Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent."'

†[BBE]If Pharaoh says to you, Let me see a wonder: then say to Aaron, Take your rod and put it down on the earth before Pharaoh so that it may become a snake.

†[GNT] "If the king demands that you prove yourselves by performing a miracle, tell Aaron to take his walking stick and throw it down in front of the king, and it will turn into a snake."

†[NIV]When Pharaoh says to you, 'Perform a miracle,' then say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' and it will become a snake."

本会注释　　你们行件奇事吧。显然，如果法老再给他们一次朝见机会的话，他一定会要求他们展示自己的资格，来证明他们作为至高上帝使者的身份。如果法老没有这样的要求，他们就不必在他面前施行神迹。故他们在前一次会见中没有施行神迹。但现在是要求他们展示显示身份的时候了。他们奉命要施行第一个神迹（见出4:3,4）。
　　把你的杖。就是摩西牧羊的杖，又称为“上帝的杖”（出4:20）。据出7:15-18，摩西蒙指示到法老面前要求让以色列人离开埃及，并宣布他将用手中的杖击打尼罗河的水。据第19和20节，这个神迹是由亚伦施行的。他拿了摩西的杖，伸手在埃及的众水之上。亚伦所持伸入尼罗河的杖正是摩西的杖，也就是那曾变为蛇的杖。摩西和亚伦用来施行神迹的杖只有一根（《先祖与先知》第263页）。

出7:10 摩西、亚伦进去见法老，就照耶和华所吩咐的行。亚伦把杖丢在法老和臣仆面前，杖就变作蛇。

†[吕]摩西亚伦就进去见法老，照永恒主所吩咐的去行；亚伦把他的手杖丢在法老和法老的臣仆面前，手杖就变为蛇。

†[思]。梅瑟和亚郎就去见法朗，照上主的吩咐做了：亚郎将棍杖扔在法朗和他的臣仆面前，棍杖就变成了一条蛇。

†[当代]摩西、亚伦来到法老面前就照上帝的指示把手杖抛在法老和他的臣仆面前，杖就变作蛇了。

†[新译]摩西和亚伦就进到法老那里，照着耶和华吩咐他们的行了；亚伦把手杖丢在法老和法老的臣仆面前，手杖就变了蛇。

†[Wlb]摩西亚伦入觐法老、遵耶和华命而行、亚伦掷杖于法老及群臣前、遂化为蛇、

†[Xdv]于是摩西和亚伦去见国王，他们照着上主的命令做了：亚伦把杖扔在国王和百官面前，那根杖就变成了蛇。

†[Kjv]And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

†[Nkjv]So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just as the LORD commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

†[BBE]Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and they did as the Lord had said: and Aaron put his rod down on the earth before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a snake.

†[GNT] So Moses and Aaron went to the king and did as the Lord had commanded. Aaron threw his walking stick down in front of the king and his officers, and it turned into a snake.

†[NIV]So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the Lord commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake.

怀爱伦注释　　魔术师仿造的工作──魔术师所行的几件迷惑人的事，看来是与上帝藉摩西、亚伦之手所施行那些事相似，他们并非真正使他们的杖变成蛇，而是藉着魔术和那大欺骗者的帮助伪造上帝的作为，而使它们像蛇一般的出现，撒但援助他臣仆去抵抗那至高者的作为，为的是欺骗人和煽动他们存叛逆的精神，法老仅把握最小的证据，证明自己有理抵抗上帝藉着摩西、亚伦所行的事，他告诉上帝的这些仆人说他的魔术师能够作这一切奇事，在上帝与魔术师之间的工作不同，就是一个是出于上帝，另一个是出于撒但，一个是真的，另一个是假的。（《圣灵的恩赐》卷一 205页）
本会注释　　这里“蛇”的原文tannin，与以前所用的nachash（出4:3）不同。但不可能是指另一个物种。这两个词无疑的是同义词。

出7:11 于是法老召了博士和术士来；他们是埃及行法术的，也用邪术照样而行。 (串)创41:8|本章22出8:7,18

†[吕]于是法老也把智慧人和行邪术的召了来；那些人是埃及的术士；他们也用他们的秘术照样地行。

†[思]法朗将他的智者和术士召来，这些埃及的巫士也用他们的巫术作了同样的事：

†[当代]法老急召他的术士来，他们就用法术照样行，

†[新译]于是，法老也把智慧人和行法术的人召了来；他们本是埃及的术士，也用他们的巫术照样行了。

†[Wlb]法老召博士及巫觋、即埃及之术士至、亦施厥术、以行是事、

†[Xdv]国王立刻召集他的占星家和巫师；他们行使法术，也做了同样的事。

†[Kjv]Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.

†[Nkjv]But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.

†[BBE]Then Pharaoh sent for the wise men and the wonder-workers, and they, the wonder-workers of Egypt, did the same with their secret arts.

†[GNT] Then the king called for his wise men and magicians, and by their magic they did the same thing.

†[NIV]Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts:

本会注释　　博士。指受过科学和文学教育的人。术士。指魔术师。自称能施巫法。在埃及有许多人重视和研究巫术，所以有大量巫术的文献。说的主要是控制人，兽，特别是爬行动物的咒语。这些人在他们施行巫术一定有实际的效果，所以多世纪来他们一直很受尊重。虽然许多巫术纯属欺骗，但他们所施行的奇迹至少有一部分是出于邪灵的能力（见《先祖与先知》264页）。
　　也用邪术照样而行。术士的杖实际上并没有象亚伦的杖那样变成蛇。术士和撒但都不能创造生命。他们只是借着邪术，使他们的杖看起来象蛇（见《先祖与先知》第264页）。正如出8:18所记，他们也照样去做，却没有产生同样的结果。

出7:12 他们各人丢下自己的杖，杖就变作蛇；但亚伦的杖吞了他们的杖。

†[吕]他们各人丢下自己的手杖，手杖就变为蛇；但是亚伦的手杖却吞了他们的手杖。

†[思]他们每人扔下自己的棍杖，也都变成了蛇，但亚郎的棍杖却吞了他们的棍杖。

†[当代]他们抛下自己的手杖，杖就变作蛇；可是，亚伦的蛇却吞噬了他们的蛇。

†[新译]他们各人都丢下自己的手杖，手杖就变了蛇；亚伦的手杖却吞了他们的手杖。

†[Wlb]各掷其杖、俱化为蛇、而其杖为亚伦之杖所吞、

†[Xdv]他们把手中的杖扔在地上，也都变成了蛇；但亚伦的杖吞没了他们的杖。

†[Kjv]For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

†[Nkjv]For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

†[BBE]For every one of them put down his rod on the earth, and they became snakes: but Aaron's rod made a meal of their rods.

†[GNT] They threw down their walking sticks, and the sticks turned into snakes. But Aaron's stick swallowed theirs.

†[NIV]Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs.

本会注释　　亚伦的蛇转向对手，把它们吞吃了，说明比它们高明得多。在法老面前施行的第一个神迹，显示了希伯来上帝的至高无上。

出7:13 法老心里刚硬，不肯听从摩西、亚伦，正如耶和华所说的。 (串)出4:21

†[吕]法老心里硬强，不听摩西亚伦，正如永恒主所说的。

†[思]法朗仍然心硬，不肯听他们的话，正如上主所说。

†[当代]法老看见这一切，却是无动于衷，不肯听从摩西和亚伦，就像上帝所说的一样。

†[新译]法老心里刚硬，不肯听他们的话，就像耶和华所说的一样。

†[Wlb]法老刚愎厥心、不听从之、如耶和华所言、

†[Xdv]可是，正像上主所说的，国王的心仍然刚硬；他不听摩西和亚伦的话。

†[Kjv]And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.

†[Nkjv]And Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

†[BBE]But Pharaoh's heart was made hard, and he did not give ear to them, as the Lord had said.

†[GNT] The king, however, remained stubborn and, just as the Lord had said, the king would not listen to Moses and Aaron.

†[NIV]Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.

本会注释　　法老心里刚硬。直译为：“法老的心是刚硬的”。这个神迹对他顽固的心并没有产生影响。他认为摩西和亚伦比他的术士强不了多少（又见@出4:21@注释）。
　　正如耶和华所说的。上帝曾预先告诉摩西这次会晤法老会晤的结果，免得摩西因国王的态度而失望。摩西事先就知道事态的进展，但法老只知道摩西所告诉他的事。这就使摩西对于法老有着明显的优势。

出7:14 耶和华对摩西说：“法老心里固执，不肯容百姓去。

†[吕]永恒主对摩西说：“法老心里固执，不肯让人民走。

†[思]上主对梅瑟说：“法朗硬了心，拒绝释放百姓。

†[当代]主对摩西说：“法老非常顽固，他是不会释放民众的。

†[新译]耶和华对摩西说：“法老心里固执，拒绝让人民离去。

†[Wlb]耶和华谕摩西曰、法老心顽、不欲释民、

†[Xdv]上主对摩西说：“埃及王的心刚硬，他不放我的子民走。

†[Kjv]And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuseth to let the people go.

†[Nkjv]So the LORD said to Moses: "Pharaoh's heart is hard; he refuses to let the people go.

†[BBE]And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, Pharaoh's heart is unchanged; he will not let the people go.

†[GNT] Then the Lord said to Moses, "The king is very stubborn and refuses to let the people go.

†[NIV]Then the Lord said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is unyielding; he refuses to let the people go.

本会注释　　见@出4:21@注释。

出7:15 明日早晨，他出来往水边去，你要往河边迎接他，手里要拿着那变过蛇的杖， (串)出8:20;9:13|出4:2,17;17:5

†[吕]明天早晨你去见法老；看吧，他出来往水边去；你要站在河边迎接他；那变过蛇的杖、你要拿在手里。

†[思]明天早晨你去见法朗。他去水边的时候，你要站在尼罗河边迎住他；手中拿着那根变过蛇的棍杖。

†[当代]明天早晨，法老会到河边去，你就在那里等他，手里要握著那变过蛇的手杖。

†[新译]明天早晨你要到法老那里去。看哪，法老出来到水边去的时候，你要站在河边迎见他；那变过蛇的手杖，你要拿在手里。

†[Wlb]诘朝法老诣河、尔往、立于河滨迎之、手执化蛇之杖、

†[Xdv]明早，他去尼罗河时，你去见他。把你那根变过蛇的杖带去，在河边上等他。

†[Kjv]Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out unto the water; and thou shalt stand by the river's brink against he come; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thine hand.

†[Nkjv]Go to Pharaoh in the morning, when he goes out to the water, and you shall stand by the river's bank to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand.

†[BBE]Go to Pharaoh in the morning; when he goes out to the water, you will be waiting for him by the edge of the Nile, with the rod which was turned into a snake in your hand;

†[GNT] So go and meet him in the morning when he goes down to the Nile. Take with you the walking stick that was turned into a snake, and wait for him on the riverbank.

†[NIV]Go to Pharaoh in the morning as he goes out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake.

本会注释　　你到法老那里去。上帝在这里赐给摩西有关向法老宣布上帝对埃及一系列惩罚中第一个的最后指示。底比斯是第十八王朝法老的埃及首都。很难想象摩西在那里施行这些神迹，因为底比斯离歌珊所在的三角洲以南约数百公里。诗78:43指出那些灾难是“在琐安田”发生的。圣经中的琐安就是古代的泰尼斯，位于三角洲的东部，比巴勒斯坦的希伯伦晚七年建造（民13:22），因此国王在降灾时一定是临时住在泰尼斯或附近地区。众所周知，埃及各地都有王宫。
　　他出来。这句话和出8:20暗示国王每天早晨都到河边。由于埃及的食物和繁荣都有赖于尼罗河（见@创41:34@注释），国王的职责之一就是每天早晨到尼罗河边敬拜它（见《历代愿望》第265页）。
　　杖。见第9节注释。

出7:16 对他说：‘耶和华希伯来人的上帝打发我来见你，说：容我的百姓去，好在旷野事奉我。到如今你还是不听。 (串)出3:18;5:3;9:1,13

†[吕]对他说：‘永恒主希伯来人的上帝差遣了我来见你，说：“让我的人民走吧，他们好在旷野事奉我”；你看，到如今你还是不听。

†[思]你对他说：上主，希伯来人的天主打发我来见你说：你应放我的百姓到旷野中去崇拜我；但到现在你仍没有听从。

†[当代]你要对他说：‘希伯来人的上帝差遣我再来，要求你让祂的子民到荒野去事奉祂，你却不听从。

†[新译]你要对法老说：‘耶和华希伯来人的　神差我到你这里来，说：“让我的人民离开这里，好使他们可以在旷野事奉我”，你看，直到现在你还是不听。

†[Wlb]告之曰、希伯来人之上帝耶和华、遣我见尔曰、宜释吾民、使往旷野、崇事于我、迄今尔未从之、

†[Xdv]你要这样对他说：‘上主──希伯来人的上帝差我来，要你放他的子民走，好让他们在旷野敬拜他，但你一直不听。

†[Kjv]And thou shalt say unto him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear.

†[Nkjv]And you shall say to him, "The LORD God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, "Let My people go, that they may serve Me in the wilderness"; but indeed, until now you would not hear!

†[BBE]And say to him, The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, Let my people go so that they may give me worship in the waste land; but up to now you have not given ear to his words.

†[GNT] Then say to the king, "The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to tell you to let his people go, so that they can worship him in the desert. But until now you have not listened.

†[NIV]Then say to him, 'The Lord , the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you: Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the desert. But until now you have not listened.

出7:17 耶和华这样说：我要用我手里的杖击打河中的水，水就变作血；因此，你必知道我是耶和华。 (串)出4:9启16:4

†[吕]永恒主这么说：‘看吧，我必用我手中的杖击打河里的水，水就变为血：藉着这个，你就知道我乃是永恒主。

†[思]上主这样说：看，我要用我手中拿的棍杖击打河水，水就变成血，如此你必承认，我是上主。

†[当代]因此上帝吩咐我用手杖击打尼罗河水，使河水变成血，

†[新译]耶和华这样说：“看哪，我要用我手里的杖击打河中的水，水就必变成血；因此你就知道我是耶和华。

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、我将以杖击河水、其水必变为血、缘此、尔乃知我为耶和华、

†[Xdv]上主这样说，现在你要从他所行的知道他就是上主。你看，我要用这根杖击打河水，水会变成血，

†[Kjv]Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

†[Nkjv]Thus says the LORD: "By this you shall know that I am the LORD. Behold, I will strike the waters which are in the river with the rod that is in my hand, and they shall be turned to blood.

†[BBE]So the Lord says, By this you may be certain that I am the Lord; see, by the touch of this rod in my hand the waters of the Nile will be turned to blood;

†[GNT] Now, Your Majesty, the Lord says that you will find out who he is by what he is going to do. Look, I am going to strike the surface of the river with this stick, and the water will be turned into blood.

†[NIV]This is what the Lord says: By this you will know that I am the Lord : With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood.

本会注释　　你必知道。在前一次会晤中，法老曾宣称：“我不认识耶和华”（出5:2）。摩西现在警告这位鲁莽的君王说，他很快就将有机会了解到上帝的大能（见出9:14）。作为富饶与福惠之源的尼罗河神将成为死亡之源。
　　降在埃及人身上的灾难不仅是为了使法老和他的百姓承认真神，也是为了摧毁他们对假神能力和保护的信赖（出12:12）。十灾中的每一灾都是真实痛楚的，同时又是针对假宗教的某一个方面。上帝本着仁慈的天意，让每次灾难所带来的肉体痛苦都使国王和他的谋士们有机会重新考虑自己的行径，认识到侍奉偶像的愚妄和与天上的上帝合作的智慧。在古埃及，国王和祭司的利益是紧密相连的。国王自己也总是正式加入祭司阶层。法老和祭司无疑认定政教的稳定受到了威胁。百姓和国王的谋士则出于更实际的考虑，在国王和祭司之前早就想屈服了（出10:7）。直到第十灾造成王室和祭司下一代的死亡，国王和祭司才肯暂时屈服（《先祖与先知》第272,283页）。从降在埃及的灾难中，我们可以看到上帝将要降在地球上更可怕和更普遍的惩罚（《善恶之争》第269, 627页）。
　　变作血。不象某些注释家所解释那样，只是尼罗河的水变成血红色，而是实实在在地变成血。要问这水是否经过显微镜等现代方式的检验分析，那就离题太远了。水是血色的，而且也被人当作是血。这不是受来自阿比西尼亚的红色土壤所影响。有人认为是“无花植物和纤毛虫”的高度密集所造成的。它类似于微生物的“赤潮”，使上百万的鱼死亡，并给海岸，海湾和入海口带来恶臭。但这样的水质是否符合圣经灾难的所有特征，是值得怀疑的。而且其时间的设定也是人可以控制的。

出7:18 河里的鱼必死，河也要腥臭，埃及人就要厌恶吃这河里的水。’”

†[吕]河里的鱼必死，河必发臭，埃及人就必厌恶、不吃这河里的水。’”

†[思]河中的鱼都要死，河水都要腥臭，埃及人不能再喝河中的水。”

†[Wlb]河鱼将亡、河水将臭、埃及人厌饮其水、

†[Kjv]And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.

†[Nkjv]And the fish that are in the river shall die, the river shall stink, and the Egyptians will loathe to drink the water of the river.""'

†[BBE]And the fish in the Nile will come to destruction, and the river will send up a bad smell, and the Egyptians will not be able, for disgust, to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking.

†[GNT] The fish will die, and the river will stink so much that the Egyptians will not be able to drink from it.' "

†[NIV]The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink; the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water.' "

出7:19 耶和华晓谕摩西说：“你对亚伦说：‘把你的杖伸在埃及所有的水以上，就是在他们的江、河、池、塘以上，叫水都变作血。在埃及遍地，无论在木器中，石器中，都必有血。’” (串)出8:5,6,16,17;9:22;10:12,21;14:16,21,26

†[吕]永恒主对摩西说：“你对亚伦说：‘拿你的杖，伸手在埃及所有的水以上，在他们的江、河、池塘以上，以及一切积水之地以上，叫水都变为血，以致在埃及全地，无论在木器中、在石器中、都有了血。’”

†[思]上主对梅瑟说：“你向亚郎说：拿起你的棍杖，将手伸在埃及的水上，即伸在河、沟渠、池沼和一切水塘之上，水都要变成血；如此埃及全国，连木器石器中的水也都要变成血。”

†[当代]于是摩西、亚伦就依照上帝的命令，在法老和他的臣仆面前用杖击打尼罗河水，河水就立刻变成血，不但河水变了血，就是埃及境内一切的江河、溪流、池塘、甚至所有器皿所盛著的水，都变了血。

†[新译]耶和华对摩西说：“你要对亚伦说：‘拿你的手杖来，把你的手伸在埃及的众水之上，就是在他们的江、河、池和所有水塘之上，使水都变成血。因此，在埃及全地，连木器石器中都必有血。’”

†[Wlb]耶和华谕摩西曰、当命亚伦云、执尔杖、伸手于埃及之水、使其江河池沼、咸变为血、埃及遍地、木石诸器、无不有血、

†[Xdv]上主对摩西说：“你要告诉亚伦，叫他拿这根杖伸手指向埃及所有的河流、运河、湖泽，和池塘。水都要变成血，全国遍地是血，甚至连水桶、石缸里也都是血。”

本会注释　　在埃及所有的水以上。水质的变化扩大到“江”，即尼罗河的支流，“河”，即尼罗河的沟渠，“池”，即尼罗河所形成的大片积水，和所有的“塘”，即在一年一度泛滥后用来贮水的人工水库。这四个词说明作者对埃及的准确了解。亚伦虽然只是在尼罗河的一处伸手，其变化却将影响整个埃及。
　　在木器中。没有说明水罐或其他容器里的水是在神迹以前还是以后打的。

出7:20 摩西、亚伦就照耶和华所吩咐的行。亚伦在法老和臣仆眼前举杖击打河里的水，河里的水都变作血了。 (串)出17:9|诗78:44;105:29

†[吕]摩西亚伦就照永恒主所吩咐的去行：在法老和法老的臣仆眼前，亚伦举起手杖，击打河里的水，河里的水就都变为血。

†[思]梅瑟和亚郎就照了上主的吩咐作了：亚郎在法朗和他臣仆的面前，举起棍杖一打河水，所有的河水都变成了血；

†[当代]－

†[新译]摩西和亚伦就这样行了，就像耶和华所吩咐的；亚伦在法老面前和法老的臣仆面前举起手杖，击打河里的水，河里的水就都变了血。

†[Wlb]摩西亚伦遵命而行、于法老及群臣前、举杖击河水、其水变为血、

†[Xdv]于是，摩西和亚伦照着上主的吩咐去做。当着国王和他的臣仆面前，亚伦举起杖来，击打河水，河水立刻变成血。

†[Kjv]And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

†[Nkjv]And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the LORD commanded. So he lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

†[BBE]And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord had said; and when his rod had been lifted up and stretched out over the waters of the Nile before the eyes of Pharaoh and his servants, all the water in the Nile was turned to blood;

†[GNT] Then Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded. In the presence of the king and his officers, Aaron raised his stick and struck the surface of the river, and all the water in it was turned into blood.

†[NIV]Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had commanded. He raised his staff in the presence of Pharaoh and his officials and struck the water of the Nile, and all the water was changed into blood.

出7:21 河里的鱼死了，河也腥臭了，埃及人就不能吃这河里的水；埃及遍地都有了血。 (串)本章18,24

†[吕]河里的鱼死了，河也发臭，埃及人就不能吃（原文：喝）这河里的水了：埃及全地都有了血。

†[思]河中的鱼都死了，河水都腥臭不堪，埃及人不能再喝河中的水；埃及遍地是血。

†[当代]这样，全埃及的水都变成了血，水里的鱼就因此全都死掉，弄得河水腥臭难耐，不能饮用。

†[新译]河里的鱼死了，河水发臭了，埃及人也不能喝这河里的水了；在埃及，全地都有血。

†[Wlb]河鱼尽毙、河水悉臭、埃及人不能饮其水、通国有血、

†[Xdv]河里的鱼死了，河水发臭，埃及人不能再喝这水。埃及的每一个地方都是血。

†[Kjv]And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

†[Nkjv]The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

†[BBE]And the fish in the Nile came to destruction, and a bad smell went up from the river, and the Egyptians were not able to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking; and there was blood through all the land of Egypt.

†[GNT] The fish in the river died, and it smelled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink from it. There was blood everywhere in Egypt.

†[NIV]The fish in the Nile died, and the river smelled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink its water. Blood was everywhere in Egypt.

出7:22 埃及行法术的，也用邪术照样而行。法老心里刚硬，不肯听摩西、亚伦，正如耶和华所说的。 (串)本章11出8:7,18|本章3,13

†[吕]埃及的术士也用他们的秘术照样地行；但法老心里刚硬，不听摩西亚伦，正如永恒主所说的。

†[思]埃及的巫士用他们的巫术也行了同样的事，因此法朗仍旧心硬，不肯听信梅瑟和亚郎，正像上主所说的。

†[当代]可是，法老的术士也一样可以使水变血。因此，法老的心便仍然刚硬不变，就像上帝所预料的一样，不肯听从他们的话。

†[新译]埃及的术士也用他们的巫术这样行了；可是法老却心里刚硬，不肯听摩西和亚伦，就像耶和华所说的。

†[Wlb]埃及术士亦施厥术、以行是事、法老刚愎厥心、不听从之、如耶和华所言、

†[Xdv]后来国王的巫师也行法术，同样使水变成血。正像上主所说的，国王的心比从前更刚硬，拒绝听摩西和亚伦的话。

†[Kjv]And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the LORD had said.

†[Nkjv]Then the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

†[BBE]And the wonder-workers of Egypt did the same with their secret arts: but Pharaoh's heart was made hard, and he would not give ear to them, as the Lord had said.

†[GNT] Then the king's magicians did the same thing by means of their magic, and the king was as stubborn as ever. Just as the Lord had said, the king refused to listen to Moses and Aaron.

†[NIV]But the Egyptian magicians did the same things by their secret arts, and Pharaoh's heart became hard; he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had said.

本会注释　　就像摩西上一次来访时一样，法老再次请教术士。他们又一次模仿真正的神迹，表面上把一定量的水变成血。至于术士所用的水从哪里来，答案在第24节，其中暗示新挖的井提供可以饮用的水。“照样而行”的含糊说法并不一定指术士真的将水变成了血。他们只需要让法老相信他们也能做摩西和亚伦所做的事就行了。他们假冒的神迹，并没有经过严格的检验。虽然只是一个魔术，却被人当真了。如果他们真的具有他们所声称的能力，就应该使尼罗河的血水恢复正常。国王满足于假冒的神迹，说明了他的愚蠢。这是他心地刚硬的结果。他相信了他希望相信的事。

出7:23 法老转身进宫，也不把这事放在心上。

†[吕]法老转身进宫，竟不把这事放在心上。

†[思]法朗转身回到宫中，没有把事放在心上。

†[当代]法老若无其事，就转身回宫去了。

†[新译]法老转身回到宫里去，也不把这事放在心上。

†[Wlb]法老返宫、不以为意、

†[Xdv]不但这样，他反而回王宫去，不把这事放在心上。

†[Kjv]And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he set his heart to this also.

†[Nkjv]And Pharaoh turned and went into his house. Neither was his heart moved by this.

†[BBE]Then Pharaoh went into his house, and did not take even this to heart.

†[GNT] Instead, he turned and went back to his palace without paying any attention even to this.

†[NIV]Instead, he turned and went into his palace, and did not take even this to heart.

本会注释　　法老认为摩西和亚伦只不过是比他自己的术士稍微高明一点，于是就打发了上帝的使者，回到宫中。他的国家失去赐生命之水源的同苦，并没有对他刚硬的心地产生影响。

出7:24 埃及人都在河的两边挖地，要得水喝，因为他们不能喝这河里的水。

†[吕]埃及人都在河的周围挖地，要得水吃（原文：喝），因为他们不能吃（原文：喝）这河里的水。

†[思]因为全埃及的人不能喝河中的水，便在河的附近掘水喝。

†[当代]因为河水不能饮用，于是，埃及人就在尼罗河两岸掘井取水饮用。

†[新译]所有的埃及人都在河的周围掘地，要得水喝，因为他们不能喝这河里的水。

†[Wlb]埃及人不能饮河水、乃沿河掘地、求水而饮、

†[Xdv]所有的埃及人都不能喝河里的水，只得在河边挖洞，从地底下取水喝。

†[Kjv]And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.

†[Nkjv]So all the Egyptians dug all around the river for water to drink, because they could not drink the water of the river.

†[BBE]And all the Egyptians made holes round about the Nile to get drinking-water, for they were not able to make use of the Nile water.

†[GNT] All the Egyptians dug along the bank of the river for drinking water, because they were not able to drink water from the river.

†[NIV]And all the Egyptians dug along the Nile to get drinking water, because they could not drink the water of the river.

本会注释　　埃及人忍受着极大的痛苦，开始挖井来满足自己的急需。由于埃及的土质含氮量高，其井水又苦又咸，但在降灾期间尚能用来饮用和做饭（第25节）。希伯来人的供水可能没有受到影响。因为圣经只提到埃及人挖井取水。这样的区别在这里没有明说，但有暗示。在以后的各灾之中，摩西特别指出这一区别（见出8:22；9:4等）。

出7:25 耶和华击打河以后满了七天。

†[吕]永恒主击打了河以后、过了七天，

†[思]上主击打河水后，满了七天，

†[当代]灾情持续了整整七天。

†[新译]耶和华击打尼罗河以后，满了七天。

†[Wlb]耶和华击河、历至七日、

†[Xdv]上主击打河水后，这灾难继续了七天。

†[Kjv]And seven days were fulfilled, after that the LORD had smitten the river.

†[Nkjv]And seven days passed after the LORD had struck the river.

†[BBE]And seven days went past, after the Lord had put his hand on the Nile.

†[GNT] Seven days passed after the Lord struck the river.

†[NIV]Seven days passed after the Lord struck the Nile.

本会注释　　有人曾把七天解释为第一灾与第二灾的间隔时间。但把它视为第一灾持续的时间更为合理（见《先祖与先知》第265页）。圣经里没有记载各灾之间的间隔时间。显然十大灾共持续了几个月之久。摩西对各大灾的性质和时间间隔所作的解说，表明灾难可能是从夏末到春初。
