My Song In The Night (Exodus)
我夜间的歌曲《出埃及记》
Text: Exodus 9: 8-12
MEDITATION
Exodus 9:8-12
8 So the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of ashes from a furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward the heavens in the sight of Pharaoh.
9 And it will become fine dust in all the land of Egypt, and it will cause boils that break out in sores on man and beast throughout all the land of Egypt.”
10 Then they took ashes from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses scattered them toward heaven. And they caused boils that break out in sores on man and beast.
11 And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
12 But the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh; and he did not heed them, just as the LORD had spoken to Moses.

沉思
《出埃及记 9:8-12》
8耶和华吩咐摩西、亚伦说:“你们取几捧炉灰,摩西要在法老面前向天扬起来。
9这灰要在埃及全地变做尘土,在人身上和牲畜身上成了起泡的疮。”
10摩西、亚伦取了炉灰,站在法老面前。摩西向天扬起来,就在人身上和牲畜身上成了起泡的疮。
11行法术的在摩西面前站立不住,因为在他们身上和一切埃及人身上都有这疮。12耶和华使法老的心刚硬,不听他们,正如耶和华对摩西所说的。
