< Exodus 11 >
1 And the Lord said to Moses: “I will touch Pharaoh and Egypt with one more plague, and after these things he will release you, and he will compel you to go out.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻOku toe taha pe ʻae tautea te u ʻomi kia Felo mo ʻIsipite; hili ia, te ne tuku ke mou ʻalu ʻi heni: pea ka fekau ia ke mou ʻalu, ko e moʻoni te ne kapusi ʻakimoutolu ke ʻalu kotoa pē ʻi heni.
2 Therefore, you will tell all the people to ask, a man of his friend, and a woman of her neighbor, for vessels of silver and of gold.
Ke ke lea ʻi he telinga ʻoe kakai, pea tuku ke nau kole taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono kaungāʻapi, mo e fefine kotoa pē ʻi hono kaungāʻapi, ʻae ngaahi teunga siliva, mo e teunga koula.”
3 Then the Lord will grant favor to his people in the sight of the Egyptians.” And Moses was a very great man in the land of Egypt, in the sight of the servants of Pharaoh and of all the people.
Pea naʻe fakaʻofeina ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite. Kae muʻa hake foki, naʻe ongoongo lahi ʻaupito ʻae tangata ko Mōsese ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Felo, pea mo e ʻao ʻoe kakai.
4 And he said: “Thus says the Lord: ‘In the middle of the night I will enter into Egypt.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, ‘ʻE feʻunga mo e tuʻuapō te u ʻalu atu ki he lotolotonga ʻo ʻIsipite:
5 And every firstborn in the land of the Egyptians shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the handmaid, who is at the millstone, and all the firstborn of the beasts of burden.
Pea ʻe mate ʻae ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he ʻuluaki fānau ʻa Felo ʻoku nofo ʻi hono nofoʻanga, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻuluaki fānau ʻae kaunanga ʻoku muimui ʻi he meʻa momosi; pea mo e ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻoe fanga manu.
6 And there will be a great outcry throughout the entire land of Egypt, such as has not been before, nor ever will be afterward.
Pea ʻe ai ʻae tangi lahi ʻi he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai hano tatau ʻi muʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ai ha meʻa pehē.
7 But among all the sons of Israel there shall not be even a mutter from a dog, from man, even to cattle, so that you may know how miraculously the Lord divides the Egyptians from Israel.’
Ka ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe ʻikai ha kulī ʻe taha ke ne ueʻi hono ʻelelo ki ai, ki ha tangata pe ki ha manu: koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo kuo fai kehekehe ʻe Sihova ki he kakai ʻIsipite mo e kakai ʻIsileli.’”
8 And all these, your servants, shall descend to me and shall reverence me, by saying: ‘Depart, you and all the people who are subject to you.’ After these things, we will depart.”
Pea ko kinautolu ni ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, te nau ʻalu hifo kiate au, ʻonau punou hifo ʻakinautolu kiate au, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke ʻalu koe, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku muimui ʻiate koe; pea hili ia, te u ʻalu kituaʻā.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ia kituaʻā meia Felo ʻoku ʻita lahi.
9 And he went out from Pharaoh exceedingly angry. Then the Lord said to Moses: “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that many signs may be accomplished in the land of Egypt.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE ʻikai tokanga ʻa Felo kiate kimoua: koeʻuhi ke fakalahi ai ʻeku ngaahi meʻa mana ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
10 Now Moses and Aaron did all the wonders that are written, in the sight of Pharaoh. And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; neither did he release the sons of Israel from his land.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻae ngaahi mana ni kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo: pea naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, ko ia naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu mei hono fonua.
