Exodus 14
1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel. Let them turn back and encamp away from the region of Pihahiroth, which is between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal-zephon. In its sight you shall place your camp, above the sea.
Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, kia tahuri, kia noho ki te ritenga atu o Pihahirota, i waenganui o Mikitoro, o te moana, ki te ritenga o Paarahepona: hei te wahi e hangai tonu ana ki reira, hei te taha o te moana koutou noho ai.
3 And Pharaoh will say about the sons of Israel, ‘They have been confined by the land; the desert has enclosed them.’
A e kiia nga tama a Iharaira e Parao, E pohehe ana ratou i te whenua, kua tutakina mai ratou e te koraha.
4 And I will harden his heart, and so he will pursue you. And I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in all his army. And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.
A maku e whakapakeke te ngakau o Parao, kia wahi ai ia i a ratou: a ka whai kororia ahau i a Parao ratou ko tona nuinga katoa; a ka mohio nga Ihipiana ko Ihowa ahau; a pera ana ratou.
5 And it was reported to the king of the Egyptians that the people had fled. And the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed about the people, and they said, “What did we intend to do, so that we released Israel from serving us?”
A ka korerotia ki te kingi o Ihipa, kua whati te iwi: na ka puta ke te ngakau o Parao ratou ko ana tangata, ki te iwi, a ka mea ratou, He aha tenei mahi a tatou, i tukua atu ai a Iharaira i a tatou mahi?
6 Therefore, he harnessed his chariot, and he took all his people with him.
Na ka here ia i tana hariata, i mauria ano hoki e ia tona iwi:
7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and whatever chariots were in Egypt, and also the leaders of the whole army.
A takiritia ake e ia e ono rau hariata, whiriwhiri rawa, me nga hariata katoa o Ihipa, rite katoa i te rangatira.
8 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he pursued the sons of Israel. But they were taken away by an exalted hand.
Na whakapakeke ana a Ihowa i te ngakau o Parao kingi o Ihipa, ko te tino whainga i muri i nga tama a Iharaira: tena ko nga tama a Iharaira, kei runga tonu te ringaringa i haere atu ai ratou.
9 And when the Egyptians followed the footsteps of those who preceded them, they found them in a camp above the sea. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and the entire army, were in Pihahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon.
Na whai ana nga Ihipiana i a ratou, nga hoiho katoa, nga hariata a Parao, me ana hoia eke hoiho, me ana mano, a mau rawa ratou, i a ratou e noho ana i te tahatai, i Pihahirota, e titiro atu nei ki Paarahepona.
10 And when Pharaoh had drawn near, the sons of Israel, lifting up their eyes, saw the Egyptians behind them. And they were very afraid. And they cried out to the Lord.
A, i te whakatatanga mai o Parao, na ka anga ake nga kanohi o nga tama a Iharaira, na, ko nga Ihipiana e whai ana i muri i a ratou; a tino wehi ana ratou: na ka karanga nga tama a Iharaira ki a Ihowa.
11 And they said to Moses: “Perhaps there were no graves in Egypt, for which reason you took us to die in the wilderness. What is it that you intended to do, in leading us out of Egypt?
A ka mea ratou ki a Mohi, He onge koia no te urupa o Ihipa i kahaki mai ai koe i a matou ki te koraha mate ai? He aha ra tenei mahi au ki a matou, i arahina mai ai matou e koe i Ihipa?
12 Is this not the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying: Withdraw from us, so that we may serve the Egyptians? For it was much better to serve them, than to die in the wilderness.”
Ehara koia tenei i ta matou kupu i ki ra ki a koe i Ihipa, i mea ra, Waiho ra matou kia whakamahia ana e nga Ihipiana? Pai ke kia whakamahia matou e nga Ihipiana i to matou mate ki te koraha.
13 And Moses said to the people: “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and see the great wonders of the Lord, which he will do today. For the Egyptians, whom you now see, will never again be seen, forever.
Na ka mea a Mohi ki te iwi, Kaua e wehi; tu marie, ka titiro atu ki te whakaoranga a Ihowa e whakaputaina mai e ia ki a koutou i tenei ra: no ko nga Ihipiana e kitea atu ra e koutou i tenei ra, e kore e kitea ano e koutou a muri ake nei.
14 The Lord will fight on your behalf, and you will remain silent.”
Ma Ihowa ta koutou pakanga; ko koutou ia e kore e hamumu.
15 And the Lord said to Moses: “Why cry out to me? Tell the sons of Israel to continue on.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, He aha koe i karanga ai ki ahau? Ki atu ki nga tama a Iharaira kia maro te haere:
16 Now, lift up your staff, and extend your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the sons of Israel may walk through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
Na hapainga e koe tau tokotoko, ka whakamaro atu ai i tou ringa ki runga ake i te moana, kia wehea ai; na ka haere atu nga tama a Iharaira ma waenga moana, i te wahi maroke.
17 Then I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, so as to pursue you. And I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in all his army, and in his chariots, and in his horsemen.
A ko ahau, ina, maku e whakapakeke nga ngakau o nga Ihipiana, a ka whai ratou i muri i a ratou: a ka whai kororia ahau i a Parao, i ana mano, i ana hariata, i ana hoia eke hoiho.
18 And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in his chariots, as well as in his horsemen.”
A ka mohio nga Ihipiana ko Ihowa ahau, ina whai kororia ahau i a Parao, i ana hariata, i ana hoia eke hoiho.
19 And the Angel of God, who preceded the camp of Israel, lifting himself up, went behind them. And the pillar of cloud, together with him, left the front for the rear
Na ka whakatika te anahera a te Atua, i haere ra i mua i te ope o Iharaira, a haere ana ki muri i a ratou; i neke atu ano te pou kapua i to ratou aroaro, a tu ana i muri i a ratou:
20 and stood between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. And it was a dark cloud, yet it illuminated the night, so that they could not succeed at approaching one another at any time all that night.
I haere hoki ki waenganui o te nohoanga o nga Ihipiana, o te nohoanga hoki o Iharaira; a tera te kapua me te pouri, otiia e whakamarama ana ia i te po: a kihai tetahi i whakatata ki tetahi a pau katoa te po.
21 And when Moses had extended his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by an intense burning wind, blowing throughout the night, and he turned it into dry ground. And the water was divided.
Na torona atu ana e Mohi tona ringa ki runga i te moana; a panaia ana ki muri e Ihowa te moana ki tetahi hau nui, ki te marangai, a pau noa taua po, na kua maroke te moana, kua tuwhera nga wai.
22 And the sons of Israel went in through the midst of the dried sea. For the water was like a wall at their right hand and at their left hand.
A haere ana nga tama a Iharaira i waenga moana ra te wahi maroke: hei taiepa ano nga wai ki a ratou i te taha ki matau, ki maui.
23 And the Egyptians, pursuing them, went in after them, along with all of the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots and horsemen, through the midst of the sea.
Na ka whai nga Ihipiana, a haere ana i muri i a ratou, nga hoiho katoa a Parao, ana hariata, me ana hoia eke hoiho, ki waenga moana.
24 And now the morning watch had arrived, and behold, the Lord, looking down upon the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, put to death their army.
A, i to te ata whakaaraara, na, ka titiro a Ihowa ki te ope o nga Ihipiana, i roto i te pou ahi, i te pou kapua, ka whakararu hoki i te ope o nga Ihipiana,
25 And he overturned the wheels of the chariots, and they were carried into the deep. Therefore, the Egyptians said: “Let us flee from Israel. For the Lord fights on their behalf against us.”
A whakamareretia ana e ia nga wira o nga hariata, kia puhoi ai te haere: a ka mea nga Ihipiana, Kia oma atu tatou i te aroaro o Iharaira: kei a ratou hoki a Ihowa e whawhai mai ana ki nga Ihipiana.
26 And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the sea, so that the waters may return on the Egyptians, over their chariots and horsemen.”
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Whakamarokia tou ringa ki runga i te moana, kia hoki ai nga wai ki runga ki nga Ihipiana, ki a ratou hariata, ki a ratou hoia eke hoiho.
27 And when Moses had extended his hand opposite the sea, it was returned, at first light, to its former place. And the fleeing Egyptians met with the waters, and the Lord immersed them in the midst of the waves.
A, ko te whakamarokanga o te ringa o Mohi ki runga i te moana, na takiri rawa ake te ata, kua hoki te moana ki tona tuturutanga; tutataki pu ki nga Ihipiana e rere ana; a taia iho nga Ihipiana e Ihowa ki waenga moana.
28 And the waters were returned, and they covered the chariots and horsemen of the entire army of Pharaoh, who, in following, had entered into the sea. And not so much as one of them was left alive.
A hoki ana nga wai, taupokina iho nga hariata, me nga hoia eke hoiho, me te ope katoa o Parao, i haere i muri i a ratou ki te moana: kihai rawa tetahi o ratou i toe.
29 But the sons of Israel continued directly through the midst of the dried sea, and the waters were to them like a wall on the right and on the left.
Tena ko nga tama a Iharaira, i haere ratou ra te wahi maroke i waenganui o te moana; ko nga wai hoki hei taiepa ki a ratou, ki te taha matau, ki te taha maui.
30 And so the Lord freed Israel on that day from the hand of the Egyptians.
A, whakaorangia ana e Ihowa a Iharaira i taua ra i nga ringa o nga Ihipiana; a ka kite a Iharaira i nga Ihipiana i te tahatai, he tupapaku katoa.
31 And they saw the Egyptians dead on the shore of the sea and the great hand that the Lord had exercised against them. And the people feared the Lord, and they believed in the Lord and in Moses his servant.
A i kite a Iharaira i te mahi nui i mahia e Ihowa ki nga Ihipiana: a ka wehi te iwi a Ihowa, whakapono ana ki a Ihowa, ki tana pononga hoki, ki a Mohi.
