3 Te vaengah a ca rhoi te a khuen tih, kholong kho ah yinlai la ka om a ti dongah pakhat te a ming Gershom a sui.

Mo ʻene ongo tama: ko e tokotaha ʻi ai naʻe hingoa ko Kesomi; he naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻaku nofo ko e muli ʻi he fonua kehe:

5 Te phoeiah Moses yuu, ca rhoek te a masae Jethro neh Pathen kah tlang khosoek ah aka rhaeh Moses taengla ha pawk.

Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Setelo, ko e tamai ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese, mo hono ongo foha, mo hono mali kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻapitanga ai ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua:

6 Te dongah Moses te, “Na masae kai Jethro he nang taengla na yuu neh a taengkah a ca rhoi khaw, kam pawk puei coeng,” a ti nah.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia Mōsese, “Ko au Setelo ko hoʻo tamai ʻi he fono, kuo u haʻu kiate koe, mo ho mali, mo ʻene ongo tama mo ia.”

7 Moses te a masae doe ham cet tih bakop tih a mok. Te vaengah hlang te a hui neh sadingnah khaw a dawt uh rhoi phoeiah dap khuila kun uh.

Pea naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻa Mōsese ke fakafetaulaki ki heʻene tamai ʻi he fono, ʻo ne fakaʻapaʻapa ki ai, mo ʻuma kiate ia pea fefehuʻiʻaki ʻakinaua ki heʻena lelei pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he fale fehikitaki.

8 Te phoeiah Israel kongmai dongah BOEIPA loh Pharaoh taeng neh Egypt taengah a saii boeih, longpueng ah amih aka mah bongboepnah cungkuem neh BOEIPA loh amih a huul te khaw Moses loh a masae taengah a thui pah.

Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Mōsese ki heʻene tamai ʻi he fono, ʻaia kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe Sihova kia Felo, pea ki he kakai ʻIsipite koeʻuhi ko ʻIsileli, pea mo e mamahi kotoa pē kuo tō kiate kinautolu ʻi he hala, pea mo e fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova.

9 Egypt kut lamloh a huul vaengah BOEIPA loh Israel ham a then boeih a saii pah dongah Jethro a kohoe.

Pea naʻe fiefia ʻa Setelo ʻi he ngaahi angalelei kotoa pē ʻaia kuo fai ʻe Sihova ki ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻa ne fakamoʻui mei he nima ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite.

10 Te phoeiah Jethro loh, “Egypt kut lamkah neh Pharaoh kut lamloh nangmih aka huul tih Egypt kut hmui lamloh pilnam aka huul BOEIPA tah a yoethen pai saeh.

Pea pehē ʻe Setelo, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻaia kuo ne fakahaofi ʻakimoutolu mei he nima ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he nima ʻo Felo, pea kuo ne fakahaofi ʻae kakai mei he nima ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite.

11 Amih taengah ol a lokhak pah coeng dongah pathen boeih lakah BOEIPA he tanglue tila ka ming coeng,” a ti.

Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou ʻilo ai ʻoku lahi ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kotoa pē: koeʻuhi ʻi he meʻa ko ia naʻa nau fai fakafiefielahi ai, naʻe māʻolunga lahi ia ʻiate kinautolu.”

12 Te phoeiah Moses masae Jethro loh hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih te Pathen taengah a khuen. Te vaengah Aaron neh Israel kah a hamca boeih tah Pathen mikhmuh ah Moses masae neh buh ca la ha pawk.

Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Setelo ko e tamai ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese, ʻae feilaulau tutu mo e ngaahi feilaulau ki he ʻOtua: pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻElone mo e kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ke nau kai mā mo e tamai ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.

13 A vuen ah pilnam te laitloek ham Moses ngol tih pilnam te Moses taengah mincang lamloh kholaeh hil pai uh.

Pea pongipongi ai pea pehē, naʻe nofo ʻa Mōsese ke fakamaauʻi ʻae kakai: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kakai ʻo ofi kia Mōsese mei he pongipongi ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.

14 Pilnam ham a saii boeih te Moses masae loh a hmuh tih, “Pilnam ham na saii hno he mebang lae? Nang namah bueng na ngol vaengah pilnam pum he balae tih na taengah mincang lamloh kholaeh hil a pai,” a ti nah.

Pea kuo mamata ʻae tamai ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ki he kakai, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni ʻoku ke fai ki he kakai ni? Ko e hā ʻoku ke nofo tokotaha ai pe, pea tuʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo ofi kiate koe mei he pongipongi ki he efiafi?”

15 Te vaengah Moses loh a masae te, “Pathen dawtlet ham ni pilnam loh kai taengla ha pawk.

Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese ki heʻene tamai ʻi he fono, “Koeʻuhi ʻoku haʻu ʻae kakai ke fehuʻi kiate au ki he ʻOtua;

16 Amih taengah te olka a om vaengah kai taengah ha pawk. Te vaengah hlang pakhat neh a hui laklo ah lai ka tloek tih Pathen kah oltlueh neh a olkhueng te ka ming sak,” a ti nah.

‌ʻOka ai haʻanau meʻa, ʻoku nau haʻu kiate au; peau fakamaau ki he tangata mo e tangata, pea u fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻae ʻOtua, mo ʻene ngaahi fono.”

17 Te vaengah a masae loh Moses te, “Hno na saii te then pawh.

Pea naʻe lea ʻae tamai ʻi he fono ʻa Mōsese kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ni ʻoku ke fai ʻoku ʻikai lelei.

18 Namah neh na taengkah pilnam he khaw na tawn la na tawn uh coeng. Namah ham rhih aih tih dumlai khaw namah bueng loh na rhoe thai moenih.

He te ke fakaʻaʻau ʻo ʻosi moʻoni koe, ʻa koe mo e kakai ni ʻoku ʻiate koe: he ʻoku mamafa lahi ʻaupito ʻae meʻa ni kiate koe: ʻoku ʻikai te ke mafai ia ʻe koe tokotaha pe.

Ko eni, fanongo ki hoku leʻo, pea te u akonakiʻi koe, pea ʻe ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua: Ke ke ʻi he kakai ko e fehokotakiʻanga mo e ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻomi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ki he ʻOtua;

20 Te vaengah amih te oltlueh neh olkhueng khaw thuituen lamtah a pongpa ham longpuei neh a saii ham bibi te amih tueng saw.

Pea te ke ekinaki ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, mo e ngaahi fono, pea ke fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae hala ʻoku totonu ke nau ʻalu ai, mo e ngaahi ngāue ke nau fai,

21 Te phoeiah namah loh pilnam pum khui lamloh Pathen aka rhih tatthai hlang, mueluemnah aka thiinah oltak kah hlang rhoek te so. Amih te thawng khat kah mangpa, yakhat kah mangpa, sawmnga kah mangpa neh parha kah mangpa la khueh.

Pea ko eni ke ke fili mei he kakai ʻae kau tangata ʻoku mafai, ʻoku manavahē ki he ʻOtua, ko e kau tangata ʻoe moʻoni, ʻoku fehiʻa ki he manumanu; pea ke fakanofo ʻakinautolu ke nau pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, mo pule ki he ngaahi toko teau, mo pule ki he ngaahi nimangofulu, mo pule ki he ngaahi hongofulu:

22 A tue boeih dongah pilnam te laitloek pah saeh. Dumlai aka om boeih khaw a puei mah nang taengla ham pawk puei saeh. Olka a phoeng boeih tah amih loh laitloek pah saeh. Te vaengah nang ham yanghoep saeh lamtah nang te n'yingyawn uh saeh.

Pea tuku ke nau fakamaau ʻae kakai ʻi he ngaahi kuonga kotoa pē: pea ʻe pehē, ʻilonga ʻae meʻa lahi kotoa pē, ke nau ʻomi ia kiate koe, ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku siʻi, ke nau fakamaauʻi: ko ia ʻe hoko ʻo faingofua ai kiate koe, pea te nau fai mo koe ke fua ʻae kavenga.

23 Ol he na ngai daengah ni Pathen loh nang uen bangla na pai thai vetih pilnam boeih he khaw a hmuen te ngaimong la a paan eh?,” a ti nah.

Pea kapau te ke fai ʻae meʻa ni, pea fekau pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe, te ke toki mafai ke tolonga, ai, pea ʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē ki honau potu ʻi he fiemālie.”

24 Moses loh a masae ol te a hnatun tih a thui te boeih a saii.

Pea naʻe tokanga ʻa Mōsese ki he leʻo ʻo ʻene tamai ʻi he fono, ʻo ne fai ʻaia kotoa pē naʻa ne lea ki ai.

25 Te dongah Moses loh Israel boeih khuiah hlang tatthai rhoek te a coelh tih amih te pilnam soah a lu, thawngkhat kah mangpa, yakhat kah mangpa, sawmnga mangpa neh parha kah mangpa te a paek.

Pea naʻe fili ʻe Mōsese ʻae kau tangata mafai mei ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻo ne fakanofo ʻakinautolu ko e ʻulu ʻoe kakai, ko e kau pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, mo e kau pule ki he ngaahi toko teau, ko e kau pule ki he ngaahi toko nimangofulu, mo e kau pule ki he ngaahi hongofulu.

26 A tue boeih ah pilnam te a lai a tloek uh tih dumlai aka kuel te Moses taengla a khuen uh. Ol phoeng boeih tah amih loh lai a tloek uh.

Pea naʻe fakamaau ʻae kakai ʻi he ngaahi faʻahitaʻu kotoa pē; naʻa nau ʻomi kia Mōsese ʻae ngaahi meʻa faingataʻa, ka ko e ngaahi meʻa siʻi naʻe fakamaau ʻekinautolu.

27 Te phoeiah Moses loh a masae te a phih tih anih te amah kho la voei.

Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Mōsese ʻene tamai ʻi he fono ke ne ʻalu; pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi hono hala ki hono fonua.
