< Exodus 10 >

1 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go in unto Pharaoh, for I have declared hard his heart, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these My signs in their midst,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu kia Felo: he kuo u fakafefeka hono loto, mo e loto ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fakaʻilonga ni ʻi hono ʻao:
2 and so that thou recountest in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.'
Pea koeʻuhi ke ke tala ʻi he telinga ʻo ho foha, mo e fānau ʻa ho foha, ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo u fai ʻi ʻIsipite, mo ʻeku ngaahi fakaʻilonga, ʻaia kuo u fai ʻi honau ʻao koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.”
3 And Moses cometh in — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and they say unto him, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Until when hast thou refused to be humbled at My presence? send My people away, and they serve Me,
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone kia Felo, ʻo na pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai Hepelū, ‘ʻE tuku afe hoʻo taʻefakavaivai koe ʻi hoku ʻao? Tuku hoku kakai ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke nau tauhi au.’
4 for if thou art refusing to send My people away, lo, I am bringing in to-morrow the locust into thy border,
Pea kapau te ke taʻofi ʻae tukuange ʻo hoku kakai, vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae fanga heʻe ki ho fonua ʻapongipongi:
5 and it hath covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it hath eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it hath eaten every tree which is springing for you out of the field;
Pea te nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga ʻoe fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa mamata ʻe ha tokotaha ki he kelekele: pea te nau kai ʻo ʻosi hono toe ʻo ia naʻe hao, ʻaia naʻe toe ʻiate kimoutolu mei he ʻuha maka, pea te nau kai ʻae ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku tupu ʻi he ngoue kiate kimoutolu:
6 and they have filled thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither thy fathers nor thy father's fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground unto this day,' — and he turneth and goeth out from Pharaoh.
Pea te nau fakapito ho ngaahi fale, mo e ngaahi fale ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e ngaahi fale ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite kotoa pē; ʻaia naʻe ʻikai mamata ai ʻa hoʻo ngaahi tamai, pe ko e nau ngaahi kui, talu ʻae ʻaho naʻa nau ʻi he fonua ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni. Pea naʻe tafoki ia ʻo ʻalu mei he ʻao ʻo Felo.”
7 And the servants of Pharaoh say unto him, 'Until when doth this [one] become a snare to us? send the men away, and they serve Jehovah their God; knowest thou not yet that Egypt hath perished?'
Pea pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Felo kiate ia, “ʻE fēfeeʻi hono fuoloa mo e kei ʻiate kitautolu ʻae tangata ni ko e tauhele? Tuku ʻae kau tangata ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke nau tauhi ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua: ʻoku teʻeki ai te ke ʻilo kuo ʻauha ʻa ʻIsipite?”
8 And Moses is brought back — Aaron also — unto Pharaoh, and he saith unto them, 'Go, serve Jehovah your God; — who and who [are] those going?'
Pea naʻe toe omi ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone kia Felo: pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “ʻAlu ʻo tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua: ka ko hai ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻalu?
9 And Moses saith, 'With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to Jehovah.'
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, Te mau ʻalu mo e mau fānau siʻi mo e mau mātuʻa, mo homau ngaahi foha, mo homau ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻa ʻemau fanga sipi mo ʻemau fanga manu lalahi: he ʻoku tonu ke mau fai ha kātoanga kia Sihova.”
10 And he saith unto them, 'Be it so, Jehovah [be] with you when I send you and your infants away; see — for evil [is] before your faces;
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Ke ʻiate kimoutolu pehē pe ʻa Sihova, ʻo kapau te u tuku ʻakimoutolu ke ʻalu mo hoʻomou fānau iiki: vakai ki ai; he ʻoku ʻi homou ʻao ʻae kovi.”
11 not so! go now, ye who [are] men, and serve Jehovah, for that ye are seeking;' and [one] casteth them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
“ʻE ʻikai pehē: ka e ʻalu pe ʻakimoutolu ʻoku tangata, pea tauhi ʻa Sihova; he ko ia ne mou kole ki ai.” Pea naʻe kapusi ai ʻakinaua mei he ʻao ʻo Felo.
12 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch out thy hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goeth up against the land of Egypt, and doth eat every herb of the land — all that the hail hath left.'
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Mafao atu ho nima ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite ki he fanga heʻe, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻalu hake ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo kai ʻae ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ʻio, ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe hao ʻi he ʻuha maka.”
13 And Moses stretcheth out his rod against the land of Egypt, and Jehovah hath led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning hath been, and the east wind hath lifted up the locust.
Pea naʻe mafao atu ʻae tokotoko ʻo Mōsese, ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻae matangi hahake ki he fonua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, pea mo e pō kotoa ko ia; pea kuo pongipongi ai, naʻe ʻomi ʻe he matangi hahake ʻae fanga heʻe.
14 And the locust goeth up against all the land of Egypt, and resteth in all the border of Egypt — very grievous: before it there hath not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none such;
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae fanga heʻe ki he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻo tuʻu ʻi he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite; ko e meʻa fakamamahi ʻaupito: naʻe ʻikai ha fanga heʻe pehē ʻi muʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai ha toe heʻe pehē ʻamui.
15 and it covereth the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eateth every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail hath left, and there hath not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.'
He naʻa nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga fonua kotoa pē, ko ia naʻe fakapoʻuli ai ʻae fonua: pea naʻe kai ʻae ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, mo e fua kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau naʻe toe ʻi he ʻuha maka: pea naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa mata ʻe toe ʻi he ngaahi ʻakau pe ʻi he ngaahi louʻakau ʻoe ngoue, ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
16 And Pharaoh hasteth to call for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, 'I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you,
Pea naʻe fekau fakatoʻotoʻo ʻe Felo ke haʻu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone; ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u fai angahala kia Sihova, ko homou ʻOtua, pea mo kimoua.
17 and now, bear with, I pray you, my sin, only this time, and make ye supplication to Jehovah your God, that He turn aside from off me only this death.'
Pea ko ʻeni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, fakamolemole ʻeku angahala ʻi he meʻa ni pe taha, pea fakakolekole kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻave pe ʻiate au ʻae mate ni.”
18 And he goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia mei he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻo hū kia Sihova.
19 and Jehovah turneth a very strong sea wind, and it lifteth up the locust, and bloweth it into the Red Sea — there hath not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
Pea liliu ʻe Sihova ʻae fuʻu matangi mālohi mei lulunga, ʻaia naʻa ne ʻave ʻae fanga heʻe, ʻo lī ia ki he tahi Kulokula; naʻe ʻikai ke toe ha heʻe ʻe taha ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
20 and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away.
Ka naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu.
21 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch out thy hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.'
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Mafao hake ho nima ki langi, koeʻuhi he hoko ai ʻae fakapoʻuli ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻio, ʻae poʻuli matolu.”
22 And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness — thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
Pea naʻe mafao hake hono nima ʻe Mōsese ki langi; pea hoko ʻae poʻuli matolu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu:
23 they have not seen one another, and none hath risen from his place three days; and to all the sons of Israel there hath been light in their dwellings.'
Naʻe ʻikai te nau femātaaki ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai tuʻu hake ha tokotaha mei hono potu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu: ka naʻe māmangia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi honau ngaahi nofoʻanga.
24 And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and saith, 'Go ye, serve Jehovah, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants also go with you;'
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Felo kia Mōsese, ʻo ne pehē, “Mou ʻalu, ʻo tauhi ʻa Sihova: kae tuku hoʻomou fanga sipi, mo e fanga manu lalahi; kae ʻalu hoʻomou ngaahi fānau siʻi mo kimoutolu.”
25 and Moses saith, 'Thou also dost give in our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and we have prepared for Jehovah our God;
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ka te ke tuku mai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau foki mo e ngaahi feilaulau tutu, koeʻuhi ke mau feilaulau ʻaki kia Sihova ko homau ʻOtua.
26 and also our cattle doth go with us, there is not left a hoof, for from it we do take to serve Jehovah our God; and we — we know not how we do serve Jehovah till our going thither.'
‌ʻE ʻalu ʻemau fanga manu mo kimautolu ʻe ʻikai tuku ki mui ha pesipesi pe taha koeʻuhi te mau toʻo mei ai ʻaia te mau tauhi ʻaki ʻa Sihova ko homau ʻOtua: pea ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo pau, ʻaia te mau tauhi ʻaki ʻa Sihova, kaeʻoua ke mau hoko ki ai.”
27 And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not been willing to send them away;
Ka naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu.
28 and Pharaoh saith to him, 'Go from me, take heed to thyself, add not to see my face, for in the day thou seest my face thou diest;'
Pea talaange ʻe Felo kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe ʻiate au, vakai kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke toe sio ki hoku mata; he ko e ʻaho ko ia te ke mamata ai ki hoku mata te ke mate.”
29 and Moses saith, 'Rightly hast thou spoken, I add not any more to see thy face.'
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Kuo ke lea lelei, ʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata ki ho mata.”
