< Exodus 11 >

1 YHWH said to Moses, "Yet one plague more will I bring on Pharaoh, and on Egypt; afterwards he will let you go. When he lets you go, he will surely thrust you out altogether.
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 Speak now in the hearing of the people, and let them ask every man of his neighbor, and every woman of her neighbor, articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing."
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 YHWH gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight of 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 Moses said, "This is what YHWH says: 'About midnight I will go out into the midst of 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 all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of livestock.
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 There shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has not been, nor shall be any more.
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 against any of the children of Israel a dog won't even bark or move its tongue, against man or animal; that you may know that YHWH makes a distinction between Egypt and 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 All these your servants shall come down to me, and bow down themselves to me, saying, "Get out, with all the people who follow you;" and after that I will go out.'" He went out from Pharaoh in hot anger.
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 YHWH said to Moses, "Pharaoh won't listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied 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 Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, and YHWH hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of 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.
