< Exodus 4 >

1 Moyses answeride, and seide, The comyns schulen not bileue to me, nether thei schulen here my vois; but thei schulen seie, The Lord apperide not to thee.
Pea naʻe leaange ʻa Mōsese ʻo pehē, “Kae vakai, ʻe ʻikai te nau tui kiate au, pe tokanga ki hoku leʻo: he te nau pehē, naʻe ʻikai hā mai ʻa Sihova kiate koe.”
2 Therfor the Lord seide to hym, What is this that thou holdist in thin hond? Moises answeride, A yerde.
Pea pehēange ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻena ʻi ho nima? Pea naʻa ne pehē, Ko e tokotoko.”
3 And the Lord seide, Caste it forth into erthe; and he castide forth, and it was turned in to a serpent, so that Moises fledde.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Si ia ki he kelekele. Pea ne si ia ki he kelekele, pea hoko leva ia ko e ngata; pea hola ʻa Mōsese mei hono ʻao.”
4 And the Lord seide, Holde forth thin hond, and take the tail therof; he stretchide forth, and helde, and it was turned in to a yerde.
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Mafao atu ho nima ʻo puke ia ʻi hono iku.” Pea mafao atu ʻe ia hono nima, ʻo ne puke ia, pea liliu ia ko e tokotoko ʻi hono nima.
5 And the Lord seide, That thei bileue, that the Lord God of thi fadris apperide to thee, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.
“Koeʻuhi ke nau tui ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻAisake, mo e ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope, kuo hā mai kiate koe.”
6 And the Lord seide eft, Putte thin hond in to thi bosum; and whanne he hadde put it in to the bosum, he brouyte forth it leprouse, at the licnesse of snow.
Pea toe pehēange ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Ko eni, ai ho nima ki ho fatafata.” Pea naʻa ne ai hono nima ki hono fatafata: pea ʻi heʻene toʻo ia mei ai, vakai, kuo kilia hono nima pea hangē ko e ʻuha hinehina.
7 The Lord seide, Withdrawe thin hond in to thi bosum; he withdrow, and brouyte forth eft, and it was lijc the tother fleisch.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Toe ai ho nima ki ho fatafata.” Pea ne toe ai hono nima ki hono fatafata; pea toe toʻo ia mei hono fatafata, pea vakai, kuo toe liliu ia ke hangē ko e anga ʻo hono sino.
8 The Lord seide, If thei schulen not bileue to thee, nether schulen here the word of the formere signe, thei schulen bileue to the word of the signe suynge;
Pea ʻe pehē, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau tui kiate koe, pe tokanga ki he leʻo ʻoe ʻuluaki fakaʻilonga, te nau tui ki he leʻo ʻoe fakaʻilonga fakamui.
9 that if thei bileuen not sotheli to these twei signes, nether heren thi vois, take thou watir of the flood, and schedde out it on the drie lond, and what euer thing thou schalt drawe vp of the flood, it schal be turned in to blood.
Pea ʻe pehē, kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau tui foki ki he fakaʻilonga ni ʻe ua, pe tokanga ki ho leʻo, pea te ke ohu ʻae vai mei he vaitafe, ʻo lilingi ia ki he kelekele: pea ko e vai ʻoku ke ohu mei he vaitafe, ʻe liliu ia ko e toto ki he kelekele mōmoa.”
10 Moises seide, Lord, Y biseche, Y am `not eloquent fro yistirdai and the thridde dai ago; and sithen thou hast spokun to thi seruaunt, Y am of more lettid and slowere tunge.
Pea pehēange ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova, “ʻE hoku ʻEiki, ʻOku ʻikai ko e leʻo afea au talu mei muʻa, pe talu hoʻo folofola ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: ka ko e lea tōʻohi au, mo e ʻelelo tōʻohi.”
11 The Lord seide to hym, Who made the mouth of man, ether who made a doumb man and `deef, seynge and blynd? whether not Y?
Pea pehēange ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Ko hai naʻe ngaohi ʻae ngutu ʻoe tangata? Pea ko hai ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae noa, pe ko e tuli, pe ko e mata ʻaa, pe ko e kui? ʻIkai ko au Sihova?
12 Therfor go thou, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and Y schal teche thee what thou schalt speke.
Pea ko eni, ke ke ʻalu, pea ko au, teu ʻi ho ngutu, ke ako kiate ko e ʻaia te ke lea ʻaki.”
13 And he seide, Lord, Y biseche, sende thou whom thou schalt sende.
Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻEiki, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fekau ʻi he nima ʻo ia ʻoku ke lelei ke fekau ki ai.”
14 And the Lord was wrooth ayens Moises, and seide, Y woot, that Aaron, thi brother, of the lynage of Leuy, is eloquent; lo! he schal go out in to thi comyng, and he schal se thee, and schal be glad in herte.
Pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova kia Mōsese, pea ne pehē, “ʻIkai ko ho taʻokete ʻa ʻElone ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Livai? ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku lea lelei ia. Pea vakai foki, ʻoku haʻu ia ke fakafetaulaki kiate koe: pea ka mamata ia kiate koe, pea ʻe fiefia ia ʻi hono loto.
15 Speke thou to hym, and putte thou my wordis in his mouth, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and in the mouth of hym; and Y schal schewe to you what ye owen to do.
Pea te ke lea ko e kiate ia, ʻo ʻai ʻae ngaahi lea ki hono ngutu: pea te uʻi ho ngutu mo hono ngutu, ke akoʻi ʻakimoua ʻaia te mo fai.
16 He schal speke for thee to the puple, and he schal be thi mouth; forsothe thou schalt be to him in these thingis, that perteynen to God.
Pea ʻe hoko ia ko hoʻo tangata lea ki he kakai: pea ʻe hoko ia, ʻio ʻe ʻiate koe ia, ko e ngutu, pea te ke ʻiate ia ko e fetongi ʻoe ʻOtua.
17 Also take thou this yerde in thin hond, in which thou schalt do myraclis.
Pea te ke ʻave ʻae tokotoko ni ʻi ho nima, ʻaia te ke fai ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga.”
18 Moises yede, and turnede ayen to Jetro, his wyues fadir, and seide to hym, Y schal go, and turne ayen to my britheren in to Egipt, that Y se, whether thei lyuen yit. To whom Jetro seide, Go thou in pees.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ʻo hoko atu kia Setelo ko ʻene tamai ʻi he fono, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe ke ke tuku au ke u ʻalu, ʻo foki atu ki hoku ngaahi kāinga ʻoku ʻi ʻIsipite, ʻo vakai pe ʻoku nau kei moʻui.” Pea talaange ʻe Setelo kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu ʻi he fiemālie.”
19 Therfor the Lord seide to Moyses in Madian, Go thou, and turne ayen into Egipt; for alle thei ben deed that souyten thi lijf.
Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi Mitiane, “ʻAlu, ʻo toe foki ki ʻIsipite: he kuo mate ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē naʻa nau fie tāmateʻi koe.”
20 Moises took his wijf, and hise sones, and puttide hem on an asse, and he turnede ayen in to Egipt, and bar the yerde of God in his hond.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Mōsese hono uaifi mo hono ongo foha ʻo fakaheka ʻakinautolu ki he ʻasi, pea toe ʻalu ia ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite: pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Mōsese ʻae tokotoko ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi hono nima.
21 And the Lord seide to hym turnynge ayen in to Egipt, Se, that thou do alle wondris, whiche Y haue put in thin hond, bifore Farao; Y schal make hard his herte, and he schal not delyuere the puple; and thou schalt seie to hym,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻOka ke ka ʻalu ke toe hoko ki ʻIsipite, vakai, ke ke fai ʻae ngaahi mana ni kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻaia kuo u ʻai ki ho nima: ka te u fakafefeka hono loto, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae kakai ke ʻalu:”
22 The Lord seith these thingis, My firste gendrid sone is Israel;
Pea te ke lea kia Felo, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ‘Ko hoku foha ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻio, ko hoku ʻuluaki.
23 Y seide to thee, delyuere thou my sone, that he serue me, and thou noldist delyuere hym; lo! Y schal sle thi firste gendrid sone.
Pea ʻoku ou tala atu kiate koe, Tukuange hoku foha ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke ne tauhi au: pea kapau te ke taʻofi ʻo ʻikai tukuange ia, vakai, Te u tāmateʻi ho foha, ʻio, ʻa ho ʻuluaki.’”
24 And whanne Moises was in the weie, in an yn, the Lord cam to him, and wolde sle hym.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he hala ʻi he fale talifononga, naʻe fakafetaulaki ʻa Sihova kiate ia, ko e kumi ke tāmateʻi ia.
25 Sefora took anoon a moost scharp stoon, and circumcidide the yerde of hir sone; and sche towchide `the feet of Moises, and seide, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me.
Pea naʻe toʻo ai ʻe Sipola ʻae maka māsila, ʻo ne kamuʻi ʻene tama, ʻo ne si ia ki hono vaʻe, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e moʻoni ko e mali pani toto koe kiate au.”
26 And he lefte hym, aftir that sche hadde seid, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me for circumcisioun.
Ko ia ne ne tukuange ia ke ʻalu: pea pehē ʻe ia, Ko e mali pani toto koe, ko e meʻa ʻi he kamu.
27 Forsothe the Lord seide to Aaron, Go thou in to the comyng of Moises in to deseert; which yede ayens Moises in to the hil of God, and kisside him.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sihova kia ʻElone, “ʻAlu atu ki he toafa ke fakafetaulaki kia Mōsese.” Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia, ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ne ʻuma kiate ia.
28 And Moises telde to Aaron alle the wordis of the Lord, for whiche he hadde sent Moises; and `he telde the myraclis, whiche the Lord hadde comaundid.
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe fekauʻi ia, mo e ngaahi mana kotoa pē naʻa ne fekau kiate ia.
29 And thei camen togidere, and gaderiden alle the eldere men of the sones of Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻo fakakātoa ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
30 And Aaron spak alle the wordis, whiche the Lord hadde seid to Moises, and he dide the signes bifore the puple;
Pea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe ʻElone ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, pea ne fai ʻae ngaahi mana ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
31 and the puple bileuede; and thei herden, that the Lord hadde visitid the sones of Israel, and that he hadde biholde the turment of hem; and thei worschipiden lowe.
Pea naʻe tui ʻae kakai: pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo kuo ʻaʻahi ʻa Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea kuo ʻafio ia ki heʻenau mamahi, naʻa nau punou hifo honau mata ʻo hū.
