Exodus 7
1 And YHWH says to Moses, “See, I have given you [as] a god to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron is your prophet;
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Vakai, Kuo u ngaohi koe ke ke hangē ko e ʻotua kia Felo: pea ko ʻElone ko ho taʻokete, ko hoʻo fakafofonga ia.
2 you speak all that I command you, and your brother Aaron speaks to Pharaoh, and he has sent the sons of Israel out of his land.
Pea ke ke lea ʻaki ʻe koe ʻaia kotoa pē te u fekau kiate koe: pea ʻe lea ʻa ho taʻokete ko ʻElone kia Felo, koeʻuhi ke ne tuku atu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei hono fonua.
3 And I harden the heart of Pharaoh, and have multiplied My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt,
Pea te u fakafefeka ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea te u fakalahi ʻeku mana mo ʻeku meʻa fakaofo ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
4 and Pharaoh does not listen, and I have put My hand on Egypt, and have brought out My hosts, My people, the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt by great judgments;
Ka ʻe ʻikai tokanga ʻa Felo kiate kimoua, koeʻuhi ke u hili hoku nima ki ʻIsipite, ʻo ʻomi kituaʻā ʻeku ngaahi kautau, mo hoku kakai ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he ngaahi tautea lahi.
5 and the Egyptians have known that I [am] YHWH, in My stretching out My hand against Egypt; and I have brought out the sons of Israel from their midst.”
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo ʻilo ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka mafao atu hoku nima ki ʻIsipite, ʻo ʻomi kituaʻā ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli meiate kinautolu.”
6 And Moses does—Aaron also—as YHWH commanded them; so have they done;
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate kinaua, ko ia ia ne na fai.
7 and Moses [is] a son of eighty years, and Aaron [is] a son of eighty-three years, in their speaking to Pharaoh.
Pea naʻe valungofulu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Mōsese, pea valungofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe tolu ʻae motuʻa ʻo ʻElone, ʻi heʻena lea kia Felo.
8 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehēange,
9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, Give a wonder for yourselves; then you have said to Aaron, Take your rod and cast [it] before Pharaoh—it becomes a dragon.”
ʻOka lea ʻa Felo kiate kimoua, ʻo pehē, “Fakahā mai haʻa mo mana: te ke lea ai kia ʻElone, Toʻo ho tokotoko, ʻo si ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, pea ʻe hoko ia ko e ngata.”
10 And Moses goes in—Aaron also—to Pharaoh, and they do so as YHWH has commanded; and Aaron casts his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it becomes a dragon.
Pea naʻa na ō, ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo hoko atu kia Felo, pea ne na fai ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova: pea si hifo ʻe ʻElone hono tokotoko ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, mo e ʻao ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea hoko ia ko e ngata.
11 And Pharaoh also calls for wise men and for sorcerers; and the enchanters of Egypt, they also, with their [enchanting] flames, do so,
Pea naʻe toki ui ʻe Felo ke haʻu foki ʻae kau tangata poto mo e kau kikite: pea ko eni, ko e kau fie mana ʻo ʻIsipite, naʻa nau fai pehē foki ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi ngāue fakalilolilo.
12 and they each cast down his rod, and they become dragons, and the rod of Aaron swallows their rods;
He naʻa nau taki taha si ki lalo hono tokotoko, pea naʻe liliu ia ko e ngaahi ngata: ka ko e tokotoko ʻo ʻElone naʻa ne folo hifo ʻo ʻosi honau ngaahi tokotoko.
13 and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he has not listened to them, as YHWH has spoken.
Pea ne fakafefeka ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tokanga kiate kinautolu; ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.
14 And YHWH says to Moses, “The heart of Pharaoh has been hard, he has refused to send the people away;
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Kuo fefeka ʻae loto ʻo Felo, ʻoku ʻikai loto ia ke ʻalu ʻae kakai.
15 go to Pharaoh in the morning, behold, he is going out to the water, and you have stood to meet him by the edge of the River, and the rod which was turned to a serpent you take in your hand,
Ke ke ʻalu ʻapongipongi kia Felo; vakai, ʻoku ʻalu atu ia ki he vai; pea te ke tuʻu koe ʻo ofi ki he veʻe vai ko hono tali; pea ke ke toʻo ʻi ho nima ʻae tokotoko naʻe liliu ko e ngata.
16 and you have said to him: YHWH, God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, Send My people away, and they serve Me in the wilderness; and behold, you have not listened until now.
Pea te ke lea kiate ia, ‘Ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai Hepelū kuo ne fekau au kiate koe, ke pehē, Tukuange hoku kakai ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke nau tauhi au ʻi he toafa: pea vakai, ʻoku teʻeki ai te ke tokanga ki ai.
17 Thus said YHWH: By this you know that I [am] YHWH; behold, I am striking with the rod which [is] in my hand, on the waters which [are] in the River, and they have been turned to blood,
ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ʻi he meʻa ni te ke ʻilo ko au ko Sihova: vakai, teu tā ʻae vai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he vaitafe, ʻaki ʻae tokotoko ʻoku ʻi hoku nima, pea ʻe liliu ia ko e toto.
18 and the fish that [are] in the River die, and the River has stunk, and the Egyptians have been wearied of drinking waters from the River.”
Pea ko e ngaahi ika ʻoku ʻi he vaitafe, ʻe mate ia, pea ʻe namukū ʻae vaitafe: pea ʻe fakaliliʻa ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ke inu ʻae vai ʻi he vaitafe.’”
19 And YHWH says to Moses, “Say to Aaron, Take your rod, and stretch out your hand against the waters of Egypt, against their streams, against their rivers, and against their ponds, and against all their collections of waters; and they are blood—and there has been blood in all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [those of] stone.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, Tala kia ʻElone, “Toʻo ho tokotoko, mo ke mafao atu ho nima ki he ngaahi vai ʻo ʻIsipite, ki honau vaitafe siʻi mo e vai tafe lahi, ki he ngaahi luovai, mo e ngaahi anovai, koeʻuhi ke liliu ia ko e toto: koeʻuhi ke ai ʻae toto ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaiʻanga vai ʻakau, mo e ngaahi ʻaiʻanga vai maka.”
20 And Moses and Aaron do so, as YHWH has commanded, and he lifts up [his hand] with the rod, and strikes the waters which [are] in the River, before the eyes of Pharaoh and before the eyes of his servants, and all the waters which [are] in the River are turned to blood,
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova: pea naʻa ne hiki hake ʻae tokotoko ʻo taaʻi ʻaki ʻae vai ʻi he vaitafe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, mo e ʻao ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki; pea naʻe liliu ʻae ngaahi vai kotoa pē ʻi he vaitafe ko e toto.
21 and the fish which [is] in the River has died, and the River stinks, and the Egyptians have not been able to drink water from the River; and the blood is in all the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe mate ai ʻae ika naʻe ʻi he vaitafe; pea naʻe namukū ʻae vaitafe, pea ʻikai faʻa inu ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻae vai ʻoe vaitafe; pea naʻe ai ʻae toto ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
22 And the enchanters of Egypt do so with their secrets, and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he has not listened to them, as YHWH has spoken,
Pea naʻe fai pehē pe ʻe he kau fie mana ʻo ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi ngāue fakalilolilo: pea naʻe fefeka ai ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tokanga kiate kinaua, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.
23 and Pharaoh turns and goes into his house, and has not set his heart even to this;
Pea foki atu ʻa Felo ʻo hū ki hono fale, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fakatokangaʻi hono loto ki he meʻa ni.
24 and all the Egyptians seek water all around the River to drink, for they have not been able to drink of the waters of the River.
Pea naʻe keli ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite kotoa pē ʻo ofi ki he vaitafe ke maʻu ʻae vai ke inu; he naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa inu ʻae vai mei he vaitafe.
25 And seven days are completed after YHWH’s striking the River.
Pea naʻe ʻosi ange ʻae ʻaho ʻe fitu, hili hono taaʻi ʻae vai lahi ʻe Sihova.
