1 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Ve a ver al Faraón y dile: ‘Esto es lo que dice el Señor: Deja ir a mi pueblo, para que me adoren.
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2 Si te niegas a dejarlos ir, enviaré una plaga de ranas por todo tu país.
2 If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs.
3 Saldrán en enjambre del Nilo, y entrarán en tu palacio y se meterán en tu dormitorio y saltarán a tu cama. Entrarán en las casas de tus funcionarios y saltarán alrededor de tu gente, incluso en tus hornos y tazones de pan.
3 The river will swarm with frogs, which will go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs.
4 Ranas saltarán sobre ti, tu pueblo y todos tus oficiales’”.
4 The frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.”’”
5 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Dile a Aarón: ‘Extiende tu bastón en tu mano sobre los ríos, canales y estanques, y haz que las ranas se extiendan por todo Egipto’”.
5 Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’”
6 Aarón extendió su mano sobre las aguas de Egipto, y las ranas subieron y cubrieron la tierra.
6 Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7 Pero los magos egipcios hicieron lo mismo usando sus artes mágicas. Criaron ranas en Egipto.
7 The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8 El Faraón llamó a Moisés y a Aarón y les suplicó: “Oren al Señor y pídanle que me quite las ranas a mí y a mi pueblo. Entonces dejaré ir a tu pueblo para que pueda ofrecer sacrificios al Señor”.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Entreat Yahweh, that he take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Yahweh.”
9 “Ustedes tendrán el honor de decidir cuándo oraré por ustedes, sus funcionarios y su pueblo para que os quiten las ranas a ustedes y a sus casas. Permanecerán sólo en el Nilo”.
9 Moses said to Pharaoh, “I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only.”
10 “Hazlo mañana”, respondió el Faraón. Moisés dijo: “Sucederá como has pedido para que sepas que no hay nadie como el Señor nuestro Dios.
10 Pharaoh said, “Tomorrow.” Moses said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like Yahweh our God.
11 Las ranas los dejarán y abandonarán sus casas, las casas de tus funcionarios y detodo tu pueblo, y sólo permanecerán en el Nilo”.
11 The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 Moisés y Aarón dejaron al Faraón, y Moisés le suplicó al Señor por las ranas que había enviado contra el Faraón.
12 Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to Yahweh concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 El Señor hizo lo que Moisés le pidió. Las ranas de las casas, los patios y los campos murieron.
13 Yahweh did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14 El pueblo las recogió montón tras montón, y todo el país olía fatal.
14 They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 Pero cuando el Faraón se dio cuenta de que la plaga había pasado, decidió volver a ser duro y terco, y no quiso escuchar a Moisés y Aarón, tal como el Señor había predicho.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
16 Entonces el Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Dile a Aarón: ‘Recoge tu bastón y golpea el polvo del suelo. El polvo se convertirá en un enjambrede mosquitos por todo Egipto’”.
16 Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’”
17 Así que hicieron lo que el Señor dijo. Cuando Aarón levantó su bastón y golpeó el polvo de la tierra, los mosquitos pululaban sobre las personas y los animales. El polvo de todo Egipto se convirtió en mosquitos.
17 They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 Los magos también trataron de hacer mosquitos usando sus artes mágicas, pero no pudieron. Los mosquitos se mantuvieron tanto sobre las personas como sobre los animales.
18 The magicians tried with their enchantments to produce lice, but they couldn’t. There were lice on man, and on animal.
19 “Este es un acto de Dios”, le dijeron los magos al Faraón. Pero el Faraón eligió ser obstinado y duro de corazón, y no quiso escuchar a Moisés y Aarón, como el Señor había predicho.
19 Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger;” but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
20 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Mañana por la mañana levántate temprano y bloquea el camino del Faraón mientras baja al río. Dile: ‘Esto es lo que dice el Señor: Deja ir a mi pueblo, para que me adoren.
20 Yahweh said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes out to the water; and tell him, ‘This is what Yahweh says, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21 Si no dejas que mi pueblo se vaya, enviaré enjambres de moscas sobre ti y tus funcionarios, y sobre tu pueblo y tus casas. Todas las casas egipcias, e incluso el suelo sobre el que se levantan, se llenarán de enjambres de moscas.
21 Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground they are on.
22 Sin embargo, en esta ocasión trataré a la tierra de Gosén de manera diferente, que es donde vive mi pueblo, y no habrá allí ningún enjambre de moscas. Así es como sabrán que yo, el Señor, estoy aquí en su país.
22 I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end you may know that I am Yahweh on the earth.
23 Distinguiré a mi pueblo de su pueblo. Verás esta señal que lo confirma mañana’”.
23 I will put a division between my people and your people. This sign shall happen by tomorrow.”’”
24 Y el Señor hizo lo que había dicho. Enormes enjambres de moscas entraron en el palacio del Faraón y en las casas de sus oficiales. Todo Egipto fue devastado por estos enjambres de moscas.
24 Yahweh did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses. In all the land of Egypt the land was corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.
25 El Faraón llamó a Moisés y a Aarón y les dijo: “Vayan y ofrezcan sacrificios a su Dios aquí dentro de este país”.
25 Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!”
26 “No, eso no sería lo correcto”, respondió Moisés. “Los sacrificios que ofrecemos al Señor nuestro Dios serían ofensivos para los egipcios. ¡Si nos adelantáramos y ofreciéramos sacrificios ofensivos a los egipcios, nos apedrearían!
26 Moses said, “It isn’t appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Yahweh our God. Behold, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, won’t they stone us?
27 Debemos hacer un viaje de tres días al desierto y ofrecer allí los sacrificios al Señor nuestro Dios como nos ha dicho”.
27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Yahweh our God, as he shall command us.”
28 “Los dejaré ir para que ofrezcan sacrificios al Señor su Dios en el desierto, pero no vayan muy lejos”, respondió el Faraón. “Ahora ora por mí para que esta plaga termine”.
28 Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Yahweh your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me.”
29 “Tan pronto como te deje, oraré al Señor”, respondió Moisés, “y mañana las moscas dejarán al Faraón y a sus oficiales y a su pueblo. Pero el Faraón debe asegurarse de no volver a ser mentiroso, negándose después a dejar que el pueblo vaya a ofrecerle sacrificios al Señor”.
29 Moses said, “Behold, I am going out from you. I will pray to Yahweh that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don’t let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Yahweh.”
30 Moisés dejó al Faraón y oró al Señor,
30 Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.
31 y el Señor hizo lo que Moisés le pidió, y quitó los enjambres de moscas del Faraón y sus funcionarios y su pueblo. No quedó ni una sola mosca.
31 Yahweh 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.
32 Pero una vez más el Faraón eligió ser obstinado y duro de corazón y no dejó que el pueblo se fuera.
32 Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn’t let the people go.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… us; we understand consistently with this, that, in this place, the books of both Testaments are called "the heavens." Now it is said too of Moses himself, by the magicians of king Pharaoh, when they were conquered by him, "This is the finger of God." And what is written, "The heavens shall be rolled up as a book." Although it …

… Egyptians, shall we dare to say that the water also was turned into blood by means of those same angels, and that frogs were created by means of the same, the like whereunto even the magicians of Pharaoh were able to make by their enchantments; so as that evil angels stood on both sides, on the one side afflicting them, …

For whence was it that the magicians of Pharaoh could by no means make lice? Was it not because even these same evil angels were not suffered to do this?
