< Exodus 34 >

1 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first; and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which thou didst break.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke tā maʻau ʻae maka lafalafa ʻe ua ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki maka: pea te u tohi ki he ongo maka ni, ʻae ngaahi lea naʻe ʻi he ʻuluaki maka, ʻaia naʻa ke maumauʻi.
2 And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to Me on the top of the mount.
Pea ke teu ki he ʻapongipongi, pea ke ʻalu hake ʻapongipongi ki he moʻunga ko Sainai, pea ke fakahā koe kiate au ʻi he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga.
3 And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.'
Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu hake mo koe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, pea ʻoua naʻa hā mai ha tangata ʻi he moʻunga kotoa pē, pea ʻoua naʻa kai ʻae fanga sipi, pe ko e fanga manu lalahi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe moʻunga ko ia.”
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone.
Pea naʻa ne tā ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki; pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ko Sainai, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate ia, ʻo ne ʻave ʻi hono nima ʻae ongo maka lafalafa.
5 And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.
Pea naʻe hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻao, pea tutuʻu ʻi ai mo ia, ʻo ne fakahā ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova.
6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed: 'The LORD, the LORD, God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth;
Pea naʻe hāʻele ange ʻa Sihova ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne folofola, “Ko Sihova, Ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaloʻofa, mo ʻofa mataʻatā, ʻoku kātaki fuoloa, pea mohu ʻi he angalelei mo e moʻoni.
7 keeping mercy unto the thousandth generation, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and unto the fourth generation.'
‌ʻOku ne fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa ki he ngaahi toko afe, ʻi he fakamolemole ʻae hia, mo e talangataʻa, mo e angahala, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakatonuhiaʻi ʻae halaia; ʻoku ʻaʻahi ʻaki ki he fānau ʻae hia ʻae mātuʻa, pea ki he hako ʻo ʻenau fānau, ʻo aʻu ki hono tolu mo hono fā ʻoe toʻutangata.”
8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
Pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ʻe Mōsese, ke punou hifo hono ʻulu ki he kelekele, pea hū.
9 And he said: 'If now I have found grace in Thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray Thee, go in the midst of us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Thine inheritance.'
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova, kapau kuo u maʻu ni ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ʻalu ʻa hoku ʻEiki, mo kimautolu: he ko e kakai kia kekeva; pea fakamolemole ʻe mau hia mo e mau angahala, mo ke fili ʻakimautolu ko e tofiʻa ʻoʻou.”
10 And He said: 'Behold, I make a covenant; before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD that I am about to do with thee, that it is tremendous.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ou fai ʻae fuakava: te u fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana ʻi he ʻao ʻo ho kakai kotoa pē, ʻae meʻa naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito hano tatau, ʻi ha potu ʻe taha ʻo māmani, pe ʻi ha puleʻanga: pea ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ke nofo ki ai te nau mamata ki he ngāue ʻa Sihova: he ko e meʻa fakamanavahē ia ʻaia te u fai kiate koe.
11 Observe thou that which I am commanding thee this day; behold, I am driving out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
Ke ke tokanga koe ki he meʻa ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe he ʻaho ni: vakai, ʻoku ou kapusi mei ho ʻao ʻae kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Kēnani, mo e kau Heti, mo e kau Pelesi, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi.
12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest they be for a snare in the midst of thee.
Ke ke vakai kiate koe, telia naʻa mou fai ha fuakava mo e kakai ʻoe fonua ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai, telia naʻa hoko ia ko e tauhele ʻi loto ʻiate koe.
13 But ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their Asherim.
Ka te mou maumauʻi honau ngaahi feilaulauʻanga, pea laiki ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakatātā, pea tā ke hinga ʻenau ngaahi ʻakau tapu:
14 For thou shalt bow down to no other god; for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God;
‌ʻE ʻikai te ke lotu koe ki ha ʻotua kehe: he ko Sihova, ʻaia ko hono huafa ko Fuaʻa, ko e ʻOtua fuaʻa ia.
15 lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go astray after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and they call thee, and thou eat of their sacrifice;
Telia naʻa mou fai ʻae fuakava mo e kakai ʻoe fonua, pea nau ʻalu ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea fai ʻae feilaulau ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea ui [koe ʻe ha tokotaha], pea ke kai ʻi heʻene feilaulau;
16 and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go astray after their gods, and make thy sons go astray after their gods.
pe ke fili ʻe koe ʻa honau ngaahi ʻofefine ki ho ngaahi foha; pea ʻalu ʻa honau ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻonau fakakau ho ngaahi foha ke nau ʻalu ʻo tango ki honau ngaahi ʻotua.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
‌ʻOua naʻa ke ngaohi moʻou ha ʻotua ukamea kuo haka.
18 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib, for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
“Pea te ke tauhi ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani. Ke ke kai ʻae mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fekau kiate koe, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe māhina ko ʻApipi: he naʻa ke haʻu mei ʻIsipite ʻi he māhina ko ʻApipi.
19 All that openeth the womb is Mine; and of all thy cattle thou shalt sanctify the males, the firstlings of ox and sheep.
Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fakaava ʻae manāva ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia; mo e ʻuluaki manu tangata ʻi hoʻo fanga manu, pe ko ha pulu ia, pe ko ha sipi.
20 And the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck. All the first-born of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before Me empty.
Ka ko e ʻuluaki ʻuhiki ʻoe ʻasi ke ke huhuʻi ʻaki ia ʻae lami; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke huhuʻi ia, pea ke fesiʻi hono kia. Ko e ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi ho ngaahi foha te ke huhuʻi. Pea ʻoua naʻa fakahā mola pe ha tokotaha ʻi hoku ʻao.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; in plowing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
“Te ke ngāue ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono, ka ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho te ke mālōlō: ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe tō taʻu, mo e ututaʻu ke ke mālōlō.
22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, even of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the turn of the year.
“Pea te ke tokanga ki he kātoanga ʻoe ngaahi uike, mo e ʻuluaki fua ʻoe tuʻusi ʻoe uite, mo e kātoanga ʻoe ututaʻu ʻi he fakaʻosi taʻu.
23 Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
“ʻE liunga tolu ʻi he taʻu ʻae fakahā ʻa hoʻomou fānau tangata kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
24 For I will cast out nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders; neither shall any man covet thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the LORD thy God three times in the year.
He te u kapusi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga mei ho ʻao, pea te u fakalahi atu ʻae ngataʻanga ʻo ho fonua: pea ʻe ʻikai ha tangata te ne holi ki ho fonua, ʻoka ke ka ʻalu hake, ʻo liunga tolu ʻi he taʻu ke fakahā koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
“ʻOua naʻa ke ʻatu ʻae toto ʻo ʻeku feilaulau mo e lēvani: pea ʻoua naʻa ke tuku ki he ʻapongipongi ʻae feilaulau ʻoe kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu.
26 The choicest first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.'
“Ko e polopolo ʻoe ngaahi ʻuluaki fua ʻo ho fonua ke ke ʻomi ki he fale ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua. “ʻOua naʻa ke haka ʻae ʻuhiki sipi pe kosi ʻi he huʻahuhu ʻo ʻene faʻē.”
27 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Write thou these words, for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.'
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ke ke tohi ʻae ngaahi lea ni: he kuo u fai ʻae fuakava kiate koe mo ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatatau ki hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi lea ni.
28 And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words.
Pea naʻe ʻi ai ia mo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kai mā, pe inu ha vai. Pea naʻa ne tohi ki he ongo maka lafalafa ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe fuakava, ko e fekau ʻe hongofulu.
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses knew not that the skin of his face sent forth beams while He talked with him.
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mei he moʻunga ko Sainai, mo e maka lafalafa ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese, ʻi heʻene ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe Mōsese ʻoku ulo ʻae kili ʻo hono mata lolotonga ʻene talanoa mo ia.
30 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face sent forth beams; and they were afraid to come nigh him.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa ʻElone, pea mo e fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese, vakai, naʻe ulo ʻae kili ʻo hono mata: pea naʻa nau manavahē ke haʻu ʻo ofi kiate ia.
31 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him; and Moses spoke to them.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu; pea ko ʻElone mo e kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai naʻa nau foki mai kiate ia: pea naʻe talanoa ʻa Mōsese mo kinautolu.
32 And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh, and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai.
Pea hili ia, naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻo ofi ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa ne tala ʻo fekau kiate kinautolu ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate ia ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai.
33 And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.
Pea naʻe ʻai ʻe Mōsese ʻae pūlou ki hono mata, kaeʻoua ke hili ʻene talanoa mo kinautolu.
34 But when Moses went in before the LORD that He might speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out; and spoke unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
Ka ʻi he ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova ke lea kiate ia, naʻa ne toʻo ʻae pūlou, kaeʻoua ke hū kituʻa. Pea naʻe haʻu kituʻa ia, ʻo ne tala ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe fekau kiate ia ke fai.
35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face sent forth beams; and Moses put the veil back upon his face, until he went in to speak with Him.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he mata ʻo Mōsese, ʻoku ulo ʻae kili ʻoe mata ʻo Mōsese: pea naʻe toe ʻai ʻe Mōsese ʻae pūlou ki hono mata kaeʻoua ke toe hū ia ke alea mo ia.
