< Exodus 7 >

1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen [carefully]. [Just like I enabled prophet to speak my messages], I will cause the king [to consider that] you are like a god, and that Aaron is like a prophet.
I MAI la o Iehova ia Mose, e nana hoi, ua hoonoho wau ia oe i akua no Parao, a o Aarona kou kaikuaana, oia no auanei kou kaula.
2 You must tell everything I command you [to tell to your older] brother Aaron, and he will tell that to the king. He must tell the king to let the Israeli people leave his land.
O na mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia oe, oia kau e hai aku ai: a o Aarona kou kaikuaana ke olelo aku ia Parao, e hoouna aku ia i na mamo a Iseraela mai kona aina aku.
3 But I will make the king stubborn [IDM]. As a result, even though I perform many kinds of (miracles/terrifying things) [DOU] [here] in Egypt,
A e hoopaakiki auanei au i ka naau o Parao, a e hana no au i ko'u mau ouli a nui, a me ko'u mau mea mana ma ka aina o Aigupita.
4 the king will not pay any attention to what you say. Then I will punish [MTY] the people of Egypt [MTY] very severely [MTY], and I will lead/bring the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
Aole nae e hoolohe mai o Parao ia olua, i kau aku ai au i ko'u lima maluna o Aigupita, a e lawe mai iwaho i ko'u poe kaua i ka poe kanaka o'u, i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, me ka hoopai nui aku.
5 Then, when I show my great power [MTY] to the Egyptian people and bring the Israeli people out from among them, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
A e ike auanei ko Aigupita, owau no Iehova, ia'u e hookakauha aku ai i ko'u lima maluna o Aigupita, a e lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela maiwaena mai o lakou.
6 Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh told them/us to do. They/We [went and spoke to the king].
Hana iho la o Mose laua o Aarona, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia laua; pela laua i hana aku ai.
7 At that time, Moses/I was 80 years old, and Aaron was 83 years old.
He kanawalu na makahiki o Mose, a he kanawalu na makahiki o Aarona a me kumamakolu, i ka wa a laua i olelo aku ai ia Parao.
8 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona, i mai la,
9 “If the king says to you, ‘Prove [that God sent] you by performing a miracle,’ then say to Aaron, ‘Throw your stick down in front of the king, in order that it may become a snake.’”
I ka wa e olelo mai ai o Parao ia olua, i ka i ana mai, E hoike mai olua i kekahi hana mana; alaila e olelo ae oe ia Aarona, E lalau i kou kookoo, a e kiola iho imua o Parao, a e lilo ia i nahesa:
10 So Aaron and Moses/I went to the king and did what Yahweh had commanded [them/us to do]. Aaron threw his stick down in front of the king and his officials, and it became a snake.
Hele aku la o Mose laua o Aarona io Parao la, hana iho la laua e like me ke kauoha ana a Iehova, a kiola iho la o Aarona i kona kookoo imua o Parao, a imua o kana poe kauwa, a lilo iho la ia i nahesa.
11 Then the king summoned his sorcerers and men who performed magic. They did the same thing, using their magic.
Kii aku la hoi o Parao i na kanaka akamai, a me na kilo; a o na magoi o Aigupita, hana iho la hoi lakou pela, i ko lakou kilokilo ana.
12 They all threw down their sticks, and they became snakes. But Aaron’s stick, [which had become a snake], swallowed up all their sticks!
No ka mea, kiola iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona kookoo iho, i lilo lakou i mau nahesa: aka, o ke kookoo o Aarona, moni iho la ia i ko lakou mau kookoo.
13 But the king continued to be stubborn [IDM], just as Yahweh had predicted, and he would not pay attention to [what Aaron and Moses/I said].
A hoopaakikiia mai la ka naau o Parao, i hoolohe ole ai oia ia laua, e like me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai.
14 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The king is very stubborn [IDM]. He refuses to allow [my] people to go.
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Ua hoopaakikiia ko Parao naau, i ole ai ia e hookuu mai i ka poe kanaka.
15 So [tomorrow] morning, go to him as he is going down to the [Nile] River [to bathe]. Wait for him at the riverbank. [When he comes out of the water, show] him the stick, the one which became a snake.
A kakahiaka ae, e hele oe io Parao la, aia e hele ana no ia i ka wai; e ku oe ma ke kapa o ka muliwai e halawai me ia: a e lawe oe ma kou lima i ke kookoo i lilo ai i nahesa.
16 Say to him, ‘Yahweh God, the one [we] Hebrews [worship], sent me to you to tell you to let my people go, in order that they may worship him in the desert. [We told you that], but you have not paid any attention to it.
A e olelo aku oe ia ia, Ua hoouna mai nei ke Akua o ka poe Hebera ia'u ion nei, ua i mai, E hookuu mai oe i ko'u poe kanaka, i hookauwa mai lakou na'u ma ka waonahele: aia hoi, aole oe i manao e hoolohe mamua.
17 [So now] Yahweh says this: “This is the way you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do]. Watch this: I am going to strike the water that is in the Nile [River] with the stick that is in my hand. [When I do that], the water will become blood (OR, [red like] blood [MTY]).
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Ma keia mea e ike auanei oe, owau no Iehova: aia hoi, e hahau no wau i keia kookoo ma kuu lima, maluna o ka wai maloko o ka muliwai, a e lilo ia i koko.
18 Then the fish in the Nile [River] will die, and the [water in] the river will stink, and the Egyptians will not be able to drink water from the Nile River.”’”
A e make no ka ia maloko o ka muliwai, a e hoopailua ko Aigupita ke inu i ka wai o ka muliwai.
19 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “[When you are talking to the king], say to Aaron, ‘Hold your stick out [as though you were holding it] over the water in Egypt—over the rivers, the canals, the ponds, and over the pools of water, in order that [all of it] may become [red like] blood.’ When Aaron does that, there will be blood throughout Egypt, even in wooden jars and in stone jars.”
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E olelo aku oe ia Aarona, E lalau oe i kou kookoo, a e o aku kou lima maluna o na wai o Aigupita, ma na kahawai, a ma na muliwai, a ma na loko, a ma na huinawai a pau o lakou, i lilo ai lakou i koko: i hiki mai ke koko ma na aina a pau o Aigupita nei, maloko o ka laau, a maloko o ka pohaku.
20 So Aaron and Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded. As the king and his officials were watching, Aaron lifted up his stick and then struck the water in the Nile [River] with it. And all the water in the river turned [red like] blood.
A hana iho la o Mose laua o Aarona e like me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai. Hapai ae la ia i ke kookoo a hahau iho la i ka wai maloko o ka muliwai, imua i ke alo o Parao, a imua i ke alo o kana poe kauwa: a lilo ae la ka wai a pau o ka muliwai i koko.
21 Then all the fish died. And the water stank, with the result that the Egyptians could not drink water from the river. Everywhere in Egypt [the water] became [red like] blood.
A make iho la ka ia maloko o ka muliwai; pilau mai la ka muliwai; aole i hiki i ko Aigupita ke inu i ka wai o ua muliwai la: a he koko no ma ka aina o Aigupita a pau.
22 But the men who performed magic did the same thing using their magic. So the king remained stubborn [IDM], and he would not pay attention to what Aaron and Moses/I said, just as Yahweh had predicted.
Hana iho la no pela na magoi o Aigupita i ko lakou mea e kilokilo ai; a ua hoopaakikiia ka naau o Parao, aole hoi ia i hoolohe mai ia laua, e like no me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai.
23 The king turned and went back to his palace, and he did not think any more about it [IDM].
Huli ae la o Parao, a hoi aku la i kona hale; aole hoi ia i kau aku i kona manao ma ia mea.
24 The Egyptians [HYP] dug [into the ground] near the Nile [River] to get water to drink, because they could not drink the water from the river.
Kohi iho la ko Aigupita a pau i na wahi e kokoke ana i ka muliwai, i loaa'i ka wai e inu: no ka mea, aole i hiki ia lakou ke inu i ka wai o ka muliwai.
25 (One week/Seven days) passed after Yahweh caused the water in the Nile [River to become red like blood].
A ua hala ae la na la ehiku mai ka wa mai o ko Iehova hahau ana i ka muliwai.
