My Song In The Night (Exodus)
我夜间的歌曲《出埃及记》
Text: Exodus 7: 8-13
MEDITATION
Exodus 7:8-13
8 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
9 “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.’”
10 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.
11 But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

《出埃及记 7:8-13》
8 耶和华晓谕摩西、亚伦说:
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,使杖变做蛇。’”
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,杖就变做蛇。
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。
12 他们各人丢下自己的杖,杖就变做蛇,但亚伦的杖吞了他们的杖。13 法老心里刚硬,不肯听从摩西、亚伦,正如耶和华所说的。
