< Exodus 32 >

1 And it saw the people that he delayed Moses to come down from the mountain and it assembled the people to Aaron and they said to him arise - make for us gods which they will go before us for this - Moses the man who he brought up us from [the] land of Egypt not we know what? has it happened to him.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai kuo tuai ʻae ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mei he moʻunga, naʻe fakataha ʻae kakai kia ʻElone, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake ʻo ngaohi hotau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻaia ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate kitautolu; he koeʻuhi ko Mōsese ni ko e tangata naʻe ʻomi ʻakitautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo pe kuo ʻi fē ia.”
2 And he said to them Aaron tear off [the] rings of gold which [are] on [the] ears of wives your sons your and daughters your and bring [them] to me.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ʻElone kiate kinautolu, “Motuhi mai ʻae ngaahi hau koula, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he telinga ʻo homou ngaahi mali, mo homou ngaahi foha, mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine, pea ʻomi ia kiate au.”
3 And they tore off from themselves all the people [the] rings of gold which [were] on ears their and they brought [them] to Aaron.
Pea naʻe fesiʻi leva ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi hau koula naʻe ʻi honau telinga, ʻo ʻomi ia kia ʻElone.
4 And he took [them] from hand their and he fashioned it with tool and he made it a calf of molten metal and they said these [are] gods your O Israel who they brought up you from [the] land of Egypt.
Pea maʻu ʻe ia ʻi honau nima, pea hili ʻene haka ia ke ngaohi ʻae fakatātā ʻoe pulu mui, naʻa ne fakafuofua ia ʻaki ʻae meʻa tā; pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko ʻeni ho ngaahi ʻotua ʻe ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
5 And he saw Aaron and he built an altar before it and he called Aaron and he said a festival of Yahweh [will be] tomorrow.
Pea kuo mamata ki ai ʻa ʻElone, pea fokotuʻu ʻe ia ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻe fakahā ʻe ʻElone, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fai ʻae kātoanga kia Sihova ʻapongipongi.”
6 And they rose early from [the] next day and they offered up burnt offerings and they brought near peace offerings and it sat down the people to eat and to drink and they arose to play.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, ʻo ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino; pea naʻe nofo hifo ʻae kakai ke kai mo inu, pea tutuʻu hake ke fakavā.
7 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses go go down for it has behaved corruptly people your which you brought up from [the] land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu koe, pea ke ʻalu ki lalo: he ko ho kakai, ʻaia kuo ke ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, kuo nau fakahalaʻi ʻakinautolu:
8 They have turned aside quickly from the way which I commanded them they have made for themselves a calf of molten metal and they have bowed down to it and they have sacrificed to it and they have said these [are] gods your O Israel who they brought up you from [the] land of Egypt.
Kuo nau afe leva mei he hala ʻaia kuo u fekauʻi ai ʻakinautolu: kuo nau ngaohi moʻonautolu ʻae fakatātā haka ki he pulu mui, pea kuo nau hū ki ai, mo nau feilaulau ki ai, ʻo pehē, Ko eni ho ngaahi ʻotua ʻe ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
9 And he said Yahweh to Moses I have seen the people this and there! [is] a people stiff of neck it.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, Kuo u mamata ki he kakai ni, pea vakai, ko e kakai kia kekeva ia:
10 And therefore leave alone! me so may it burn anger my on them so I may make an end of them and I may make you into a nation great.
Pea ko ʻeni, tuku ai pe au, koeʻuhi ke tupu pe ʻo vela ʻeku tuputāmaki kiate kinautolu, pea koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu: pea te u fakatupu ʻiate koe ʻae puleʻanga lahi.”
11 And he entreated Moses [the] face of Yahweh God his and he said why? O Yahweh does it burn anger your on people your which you brought out from [the] land of Egypt with power great and by a hand strong.
Pea naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Sihova, ko e hā ʻoku tupu ʻo vela ai ho houhau ki ho kakai, ʻaia kuo ke aʻutaki mai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he mālohi lahi, pea ʻi he nima māfimafi?
12 Why? will they say Egypt saying with evil he brought out them to kill them in the mountains and to make an end of them from on [the] surface of the ground turn from [the] burning of anger your and relent on the harm to people your.
Ko e hā ka lea ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē, naʻa ne ʻomi kovi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā, ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pea ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei he funga ʻo māmani? Tafoki mei ho houhau lahi, pea lolou ʻi he kovi ni ki ho kakai.
13 Remember Abraham Isaac and Israel servants your whom you swore to them by yourself and you said to them I will increase offspring your like [the] stars of the heavens and all the land this which I have promised I will give to offspring your and they will possess [it] for ever.
Manatu ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu naʻa ke fuakava ki ai ʻi he ʻafiona, mo ke pehē kiate kinautolu, Te u fakatupu ke tokolahi homou hako ke tatau mo e ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi, pea ko e fonua ni kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo u lea ki ai te u foaki ia ki homou hako, pea te nau maʻu ia ʻo taʻengata.”
14 And he relented Yahweh on the harm which he had spoken to do to people his.
Pea naʻe lolou ʻa Sihova ʻi he kovi ʻaia naʻa ne finangalo ke fai ki hono kakai.
15 And he turned and he went down Moses from the mountain and [the] two [the] tablets of the testimony [were] in hand his tablets written from [the] two sides their from this and from this they [were] written.
Pea naʻe tafoki ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, mo e maka ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava naʻe ʻi hono nima: kuo tohi ʻae ongo maka ʻi hona potu fakatouʻosi: kuo tohi ia ʻi hono potu ʻe taha mo hono potu ʻe taha.
16 And the tablets [were] [the] work of God they and the writing [was] [the] writing of God it engraved on the tablets.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ongo maka, pea ko e tohi ko e tohi ʻae ʻOtua, kuo tongi ki he ongo maka.
17 And he heard Joshua [the] sound of the people (in shouting its *Q(K)*) and he said to Moses a sound of battle [is] in the camp.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Siosiua ki he longoaʻa ʻoe kakai ʻi heʻenau kalanga, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia Mōsese, “ʻOku longolongo tau ʻae ʻapitanga.”
18 And he said there not [is] a sound of singing of strength and there not [is] a sound of singing of weakness a sound of singing I [am] hearing.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai ko e leʻo ia ʻokinautolu ʻoku mavava ʻi he mālohi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko e leʻo ʻonautolu ʻoku tangi ʻi he fakavaivaiʻi: ka ʻoku ou ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻonautolu ʻoku hiva.”
19 And it was just when he drew near to the camp and he saw the calf and dancing and it burned [the] anger of Moses and he threw down (from hands his *Q(K)*) the tablets and he broke in pieces them under the mountain.
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko ʻo ofi ki he ʻapitanga, naʻa ne mamata leva ki he [fakatātā ʻoe ]pulu mui mo e meʻe hopohopo: pea tupu ʻo vela ʻae ʻita ʻa Mōsese, pea ne si ʻae ongo maka mei hono nima pea naʻe laiki ia ʻi he lalo moʻunga.
20 And he took the calf which they had made and he burned [it] with fire and he ground [it] until that it was fine and he scattered [it] on [the] surface of the water and he made drink [it] [the] people of Israel.
Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae pulu mui ʻaia naʻa nau ngaohi, ʻo tutu ia ʻi he afi, ʻo ne momosi ia ke efu, ʻo ne lī ia ki he vai, ʻo ne fakainu ʻaki ia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
21 And he said Moses to Aaron what? did it do to you the people this that you have brought on it a sin great.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Ko e hā naʻe fai ʻe he kakai ni kiate koe, kuo ke ʻomi ai ʻae angahala lahi pehē ni kiate kinautolu?”
22 And he said Aaron may not it burn [the] anger of lord my you you know the people that [is] on evil it.
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻElone, “Ke ʻoua naʻa tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae ʻita ʻa hoku ʻeiki: ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻae kakai, ʻoku pau pe honau loto ki he kovi.
23 And they said to me make for us gods which they will go before us for this - Moses the man who he brought up us from [the] land of Egypt not we know what? has it happened to him.
He naʻa nau pehē mai kiate au, Ngaohi hotau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻaia ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate kitautolu: he koeʻuhi ko e Mōsese ni, ko e tangata naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakitautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo pe kuo ʻi fē ia.
24 And I said to them [belongs] to whom? gold tear [it] off from yourselves and they gave [it] to me and I threw it in the fire and it came out the calf this.
Pea ne u tala kiate kinautolu, Ko ia fulipē ʻoku ai haʻanau koula, ke nau motuhi ia. Pea naʻa nau tuku mai ia kiate au: pea naʻaku si ia ki he afi, pea naʻe haʻu mei ai ʻae pulu mui ni.”
25 And he saw Moses the people for [was] running wild it for had let [it] run wild he Aaron for derision among [those who] rise against them.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Mōsese, ʻoku telefua ʻae kakai; (he naʻe fakatelefuaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻElone ke nau mā ai ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo honau ngaahi fili: )
26 And he stood Moses at [the] gate of the camp and he said who? [belongs] to Yahweh to me and they gathered themselves to him all [the] descendants of Levi.
Naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Mōsese ʻi he matapā ʻoe ʻapitanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku kau mo Sihova? Ke haʻu ia kiate au. Pea ko e ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻo Livai, naʻa nau fakataha kiate ia.”
27 And he said to them thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel put everyone sword his on thigh his pass and return from gate to gate in the camp and kill everyone brother his and everyone friend his and everyone neighbor his.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Ke ʻai ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻene heletā ki hono vakavaka, pea ʻalu ʻo feʻaluʻaki ʻi he matapā ki he matapā ʻi he ʻapitanga kotoa pē, ʻo tāmateʻi ʻe he tangata hono tokoua, mo e tangata kotoa pē ʻene kaumeʻa, mo e tangata kotoa pē hono kaungāʻapi.’”
28 And they did [the] descendants of Levi according to [the] word of Moses and it fell of the people on the day that about three thousand person[s].
Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa Livai ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Mōsese: pea naʻe tō ai ʻi he kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae kau tangata ko e toko tolu afe nai.
29 And he said Moses fill hand your this day to Yahweh for everyone [was] on son his and on brother his and to put on yourselves this day a blessing.
He naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Fakatapui ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova he ʻaho ni, ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono foha, pea ki hono tokoua: koeʻuhi ke ne foaki ʻae tāpuaki kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni.”
30 And it was from [the] next day and he said Moses to the people you you have sinned a sin great and now I will go up to Yahweh perhaps I will atone for sin your.
Pea pongipongi ai, naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese ki he kakai, “Kuo mou fai ʻae angahala lahi: pea ko eni, te u ʻalu hake kia Sihova; heiʻilo pe teu lavaʻi ke fai ʻae fakalelei ʻi hoʻomou angahala.”
31 And he returned Moses to Yahweh and he said I beg you it has sinned the people this a sin great and they have made for themselves gods of gold.
Pea naʻe toe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOiauē, kuo fai ʻae angahala lahi ʻe he kakai ni, pea kuo ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻotua koula.
32 And therefore if you will forgive sin their and if not wipe out me please from book your which you have written.
Ka ko eni, kapau ʻe lelei te ke fakamolemole ʻenau angahala; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tāmateʻi au mei hoʻo tohi ʻaia kuo ke tohi.”
33 And he said Yahweh to Moses who? [is [the] one] who he has sinned to me I will wipe out him from book my.
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ko ia fulipē kuo fai angahala kiate au, te u tāmateʻi ia mei heʻeku tohi.
34 And now go - lead the people to where I have spoken to you there! angel my he will go before you and on [the] day visit I and I will visit on them sin their.
Ko ia, ke ke ʻalu ni, ʻo ʻave ʻae kakai ki he [fonua], ʻaia naʻaku lea ai kiate koe: vakai, ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe a ʻeku ʻĀngelo ka ko e moʻoni ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku ʻaʻahi, Te u ʻaʻahi ʻenau angahala kiate kinautolu.”
35 And he struck Yahweh the people on that they had made the calf which he had made Aaron.
Pea naʻe fakamamahi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaohi ʻae pulu mui, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe ʻElone.
