Exodus 11
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “There is still one more plague that I will bring on Pharaoh and Egypt. After that, he will let you go from here. When he finally lets you go, he will drive you away completely.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kia kotahi atu whiu e whakapangia e ahau ki a Parao, ki Ihipa; muri iho ka tukua koutou e ia i konei: ka tukua koutou, ina, ka tino peia katoatia koutou e ia i konei.
2 Instruct the people that every man and woman is to ask of his or her neighbor for articles of silver and articles of gold.”
Korero inaianei ki nga taringa o te iwi, a ma te tane, ma te wahine, e tono he mea hiriwa, he mea koura i tona hoa, i tona hoa.
3 Now Yahweh had made the Egyptians eager to please the Israelites. Moreover, the man Moses was very impressive in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and the people of Egypt.
A i meinga ano e Ihowa kia paingia te iwi e nga Ihipiana. Ko te tangata nei hoki ko Mohi, i nui rawa ki te whenua o Ihipa, ki te aroaro o nga tangata a Parao, ki te aroaro ano hoki o te iwi.
4 Moses said, “Yahweh says this: 'About midnight I will go throughout Egypt.
Na ka mea a Mohi, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Hei waenganui po ahau ka tika na waenganui o Ihipa:
5 All the firstborn in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the handmill grinding it, and to all the firstborn of the cattle.
A ka mate nga matamua katoa o te whenua o Ihipa, te matamua a Parao e noho ana i runga i tona torona, a tae iho ana ki te matamua a te pononga wahine i tua i te mira; me nga matamua katoa a nga kararehe:
6 Then there will be a great wailing throughout all the land of Egypt, such as has never been nor ever will be again.
A ka nui te tangi i te whenua katoa o Ihipa, kahore he pera i mua, e kore ano hoki e pera e takoto ake nei.
7 But not even a dog will bark against any of the people of Israel, against either man or beast. In this way you will know that I am treating the Egyptians and the Israelites differently.'
Otira e kore e oraora te arero o tetahi kuri ki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira, ki te tangata, ki te kararehe; kia mohio ai koutou e titore ana a Ihowa i waenga o nga Ihipiana, o Iharaira.
8 All these servants of yours, Pharaoh, will come down to me and bow down to me. They will say, 'Go, you and all the people who follow you!' After that I will go out.” Then he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.
A e haere ake enei tangata katoa au ki ahau, e piko ki ahau, e mea, Haere koe me te iwi katoa e haere ana i raro i ou waewae; a, muri iho ka haere ahau. A puta ana ia i a Parao, he nui hoki tona riri.
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you. This is so that I will do many amazing things in the land of Egypt.”
A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, E kore a Parao e rongo ki a korua, kia maha ai aku merekara ki te whenua o Ihipa.
10 Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh's heart, and Pharaoh did not let the people of Israel go out of his land.
A meatia ana e Mohi raua ko Arona enei merekara katoa ki te aroaro o Parao: a, i whakapakeke ano a Ihowa i te ngakau o Parao, a kihai ia i tuku i nga tama a Iharaira i tona whenua.
