Mose sprach: Das taugt nicht, daß wir also tun; denn wir würden der Ägypter Greuel opfern unserm Gott, dem HERRN; siehe, wenn wir der Ägypter Greuel vor ihren Augen opferten, würden sie uns nicht steinigen?
Y aquel día yo apartaré la tierra de Gosén, en la cual mi pueblo habita, para que ninguna suerte de moscas haya en ella; a fin de que sepas que yo soy Jehová en medio de la tierra.
Pero aquel día apartaré la tierra de Gosén, donde habita mi pueblo, para que allí no haya enjambres de moscas, a fin de que sepas que yo soy Jehová en medio de la tierra.
Mais, en ce jour-là, je distinguerai le pays de Gosen où habite mon peuple, et là il n'y aura point de mouches, afin que tu saches que moi, l'Eternel, je suis au milieu de ce pays.
Ma in quel giorno io lascerò da parte la contrada di Gosen, nella quale sta il mio popolo; talchè non vi sarà alcuna mischia; acciocchè tu conosca che io sono il Signore in mezzo della terra.
E naquele dia eu separarei a terra de Gósen, em que meu povo habita, que nela não haja enxames de moscas, para que saibas que eu sou o SENHOR no meio desta terra.
