Exodus 2
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, —and took a daughter of Levi.
KII aku la kekahi kanaka o ka ohana a Levi, a lawe ae la i kekahi kaikamahine a Levi.
2 And the woman conceived and bare a son, —and she saw him, that he was a goodly child, so she hid him three months.
Hapai ae la ua wahine la, a hanau mai la he keikikane; a ike iho la oia ia ia he maikai, huna iho la oia ia ia ekolu malama.
3 And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him an ark of paper-reed, and covered it over with bitumen, and with pitch, —and put therein the child, and laid it among the rushes upon the bank of the river.
A i ka wa hiki ole ia ia ke huna hou aku, lawe ae la ia i waa kome nona, a hapala ia mea i ka bitumena a me ke kepau, a hahao iho la i ke keiki maloko; a waiho iho la maloko o na kaluha ma kapa o ka muliwai.
4 Then did his sister station herself at a distance, —to see what would be done to him.
A ku iho la kona kaikuwahine i kahi mamao aku, e nana i ka mea e hanaia mai ai ia ia.
5 So then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe by the river, and her, maidens, were walking by the side of the river, —when she saw the ark in the midst of the rushes, and sent her handmaid, and fetched it.
Iho iho la ke kaikamahine a Parao e auau ma ka muliwai, hele ae la hoi kona mau wahine ma kapa o ka muliwai: a ike aku la kela i ka waa iwaena o na kaluha, hoouna aku la ia i kona wahine e lawe mai.
6 And she opened and beheld it—even the child, and lo! a boy weeping, —so she took pity on him, and said, Of the children of the Hebrews, is this.
A wehe aku la ia, alaila ike iho la i ke keiki: aia hoi, uwe ae la ua keiki la. Aloha aku la kela ia ia, i aku la. He keiki keia na ka Hebera.
7 Then said his sister unto Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call thee a nurse, of the Hebrew women, —that she may nurse for thee the child?
Alaila, olelo aku la kona kaikuwahine i ke kaikamahine a Parao, E hele hoi ha wau, e kii aku nou i kekahi wahine Hebera i kahu nana e hanai i ke keiki nau?
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her—Go. So the maid went, and called the mother of the child.
I mai la ke kaikamahine a Parao ia ia, O hele. A hele aku la ke kaikamahine, a kii aku la i ka makuwahine o ua keiki la.
9 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her—Take this child, and nurse it for me, and, I, will give thee thy wages. So the woman took the child, and nursed it.
I mai la ke kaikamahine a Parao ia ia, E lawe oe i keia keiki a e hanai ia ia na'u, a na'u no oe e uku aku. Lawe ae la ua wahine la i ke keiki, a hanai iho la.
10 And the child grew, and she brought him in to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses, and said—For out of the water, I drew him.
A nui ae ua keiki la: a lawe ae la oia ia ia i ke kaikamahine a Parao, a lilo ae la ia i keiki nana. Kapa iho la oia i kona inoa, o Mose, i iho la ia, No ka mea, ua lawe mai au ia ia mailoko mai o ka wai.
11 And it came to pass in those days when Moses grew up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens, —and saw, an Egyptian smiting a Hebrew—of his brethren,
Ia mau la mai, i ko Mose wa kanaka makua, hele aku la ia i kona poe hoahanau, nana aku la ia i ko lakou luhi ana; ike aku la ia i kekahi kanaka o Aigupita e pepehi ana i ka Hebera, i kekahi o kona poe hoahanau.
12 So he turned this way and that, and when he saw that there was no man, he smote the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
Aloalo ae la ia, a ike iho la, aole kanaka, alaila pepehi iho la ia i ka Aigupita a make, a huna ia ia maloko o ke one.
13 And he went out on the second day, and lo! two Hebrews, striving together, —so he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore shouldest thou smite thy fellow?
A i ka lua o ka la, hele hou aku la no ia, aia hoi, elua kanaka Hebera e hakaka ana; i aku la ia i ka mea nona ka hewa, No ke aha la oe e pepehi aku nei i kou hoa?
14 And he said—Who hath set thee for a chief and a judge over us? To slay me, art thou thinking, as thou didst slay the Egyptian? Then was Moses afraid, and said—Surely the thing is, known!
I mai la kela, Nawai la oe i hoolilo ao nei i alii, a i lunakanawai maluna o makou? Ke manao nei anei oe e pepehi mai ia'u, e like mo kou pepehi ana i ka Aigupita? Alaila makau iho la o Mose, i iho la, Oiaio no, ua ikeia koia mea.
15 So Pharaoh heard this thing, and sought to slay Moses, —and Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian and sat down by the well.
A lohe ae la o Parao ia mea, imi iho la ia o pepehi ia Mose. Mahuka aku la o Mose mai ka maka aku o Parao, a noho ma ka aina ma Midiana: a noho iho la ia ilalo ma kekahi luawai.
16 Now, the priest of Midian, had seven daughters, —and they came and drew and filled the troughs, to water their fathers flock.
He mau kaikamahine ehiku na ke kahuna ma Midiana. Hele mai la lakou a hukihuki i ka wai, a ninini iloko o na holowaa, e hooinu ai i na holoholona a ko lakou makuakane.
17 Then came the shepherds, and drave them away, —so Moses rose up, and succoured them, and watered their flock,
Hele mai la kekahi poe kahuhipa, a kipaku ae la ia lakou. Ku ae la o Mose iluna, a kokua ia lakou, a hooinu aku la i ka lakou poe holoholona.
18 Then came they in unto Reuel their father, —and he said, Wherefore have ye so early come in to-day?
A hoi aku la lakou ia Reuela i ko lakou makuakane, ninau mai la ia, No ke aha la oukou i hoi koke mai ai i koia la?
19 And they said, An Egyptian, delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, —Moreover also he drew, for us, and watered the flock.
I aku la lakou, Na kekahi kanaka o Aigupita i hoopakele ae ia makou mai ka lima mai o ka poe kahuhipa, a huki iho la ia i ka wai no makou a nui, a hooinu aku la i na holoholona.
20 And he said unto his daughters—And where is he? wherefore is it that ye left the man? Call him that he may eat bread.
I mai la ia i kana poe kaikamahine, Auhea la hoi ia? No ke aha la oukou i haalele aku ai i ua kanaka la? E kii aku ia ia e ai ia i ka ai.
21 And Moses was well-pleased to dwell with the man, —and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.
A walea iho la o Mose e noho me ia kanaka, a haawi mai la oia ia Zipora, kana kaikamahine na Mose.
22 And she bare a son, and he called his name Gershom, —for he said, A, sojourner, I am, in a strange land.
A hanau mai la ia he keikikane, a kapa aku la ia i kona inoa o Geresoma; no ka mea, i iho la ia, Ua malihini au ma ka aina e.
23 And it came to pass, during those many days, that the king of Egypt died, and the sons of Israel sighed by reason of the servitude and lamented, —and their cry for help went up to God, by reason of the servitude.
A nui na la i hala, make ke alii o Aigupita, a kaniuhu iho la ka poe mamo a Iseraela, no ka luhi loa ana, a uwe aku la lakou; a hiki aku la ko lakou uwe ana i ke Akua no ko lakou luhi.
24 And God heard their groaning, —and God remembered his covenant, with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob;
A lohe ke Akua i ko lakou uwe ana, a manao iho la ia i kana berita me Aberahama, a me Isaaka, a me Iakoba.
25 so then, God looked upon the sons of Israel, —and God regarded.
A nana mai la ke Akua i ka poe mamo a Iseraela, a manao mai la ko Akua ia lakou.
