Pukaana 10
1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele aku oe iloko io Parao la, no ke mea, ua hoopaakiki au i kona naau, a me ka naau o kana poe kauwa, i hoike aku ai au i keia mau hoailona o'u iwaena o lakou;
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go to the king [again]. I have made him and his officials stubborn [IDM]. I have done that in order that I would [have a good reason to] perform all these plagues among them,
2 A i hai aku ai oe maloko o na pepeiao o kau keiki, a o ke keiki a kau keiki i na mea a'u i hana'i ma Aigupita, a me ko'u mau hoailona a'u i hana aku ai ia lakou, i ike ai oukou, owau no Iehova.
and also in order that you would [be able to] tell your children and your grandchildren how I caused the Egyptians to act very foolishly [when] I performed all these miracles. Then all of you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
3 Hele aku la o Mose laua o Aarona iloko io Parao la, i aku la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o na Hebera, penei, Pehea la ka loihi o kou hoohaahaa ole ana ia oe iho imua o'u? E hookuu mai oe i ko'u poe kanaka, i hookauwa mai lakou na'u.
So Aaron and Moses/I went into the king’s [palace] and said to him, “Yahweh God, whom we Hebrews [worship], says this: ‘How long will you stubbornly refuse to do what I tell you [MTY]? Let my people go, in order that they may worship me [in the desert]
4 Aka, ina e hoole oe, aole e hookuu mai i ko'u poe kanaka, aia hoi, i ka la apopo, e halihali mai no wau i na uhini ma kou aina.
If you [keep] refusing to let them go, I warn you that tomorrow I will bring (locusts/[large flying insects called] locusts) into your country.
5 A e uhi mai auanei lakou maluna o ka aina, aole e ikea ka aina ke nana aku: a e ai iho no lakou i ke koena o na mea i waihoia na oukou e ka huahekili: a e ai iho hoi lakou i na laau a pau e ulu ana no oukou ma ke kula.
[They will completely cover the ground so that] you will not even be able to see the ground. They will eat everything that the hail did not [destroy]. They will eat [everything that is left on] the trees.
6 E hoopiha hoi lakou i na hale ou, a me na hale o kau poe kauwa a pau, a me na hale o ko Aigupita a pau: aole i ike kou poe makua i keia mea, aole hoi na makua o kou poe makua, mai ka wa i noho mai ai lakou ma ka honua, a hiki i keia la, Haliu ae la ia, a hele aku la mai o Parao aku.
They will fill your houses, and the houses of all your officials, and the houses of all [the rest of] the Egyptians. [There will be more locusts] than you or your parents or your grandparents have ever seen, from the time your ancestors first came to [this] land until the present time!’” Then he/I turned and [Aaron and] I left the king.
7 Olelo aku la na kauwa a Parao ia ia, Pehea la ka loihi o ka hoohihia ana o keia kanaka ia kakou? E hookuu aku i ua poe kanaka la, i hookauwa aku ai lakou na Iehova na ko lakou Akua. Aole anei oe i ike i neia manawa, ua oki loa o Aigupita nei?
The king’s officials said to him, “(How long is this man going to continue to bring disasters on us?/We must not let this man continue to cause trouble for us!) [RHQ] Let the [Israeli] men leave, in order that they may worship Yahweh, their god. (Do you not yet understand that [this man] has ruined Egypt?/You ought to realize by now that [this man] has ruined Egypt!)” [RHQ]
8 Ua lawe hou ia aku o Mose laua o Aarona io Parao la, i mai la ia ia laua, E hele oukou, e hookauwa na Iehova na ko oukou Akua. Owai, owai hoi ka poe hele?
So they brought Aaron and Moses/me back to the king. He said to them/us, “[All right], you can go and worship Yahweh your god. But who are the ones who will go?”
9 I aku la o Mose, E hele pu no makou me ko makou poe opiopio a me ko makou poe elemakule, me na keikikane a me na kaikamahine a makou, me ka makou hipa, a me ka makou bipi makou e hele aku ai: no ka mea, he ahaaina ka makou no Iehova.
Moses/I replied, “We [all] need to go, everyone, including those who are young and those who are old. We need to take our sons and our daughters and our flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of livestock], because we must have a festival to [honor] Yahweh.”
10 I mai la kela ia laua, o Iehova kekahi pu me oukou, ke hookuu aku au ia oukou, e hele me ka oukou poe keiki. E malama ia olua, no ka mea, aia no ka hewa ma ko olua alo.
[Moses/I really did not intend that the Israelis would ever return to Egypt, and the king knew that also. So] the king replied [sarcastically], “[If you all leave], [it will be clear that] Yahweh has helped you, but I myself will never let you [take] your children [and your wives] when you go! It is clear that you are wickedly planning [not to return].
11 Aole pela: o oukou na kanaka ke hele, e hookauwa aku na Iehova; no ka mea, oia ka oukou mea i imi mai nei. A ua kipakuia mai laua, mai ke alo mai o Parao.
So no, [I will not let you all go]. [The Israeli] men may go [and worship Yahweh], if that is what you want.” Then the king expelled them/us from [his palace].
12 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E o aku kou lima, maluna o ka aina o Aigupita no na uhini, i hele mai ai lakou maluna o ka aina o Aigupita, a e ai iho i na laauikiai a pau o ka aina, i na mea a pau i waihoia e ka huahekili.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Reach out your hand as [though you were stretching it] over the land to welcome the locusts. They will come to the country of Egypt and eat every plant that is [left] in the land, every plant that the hail has not destroyed.”
13 O aku la o Mose i kona kookoo maluna o ka aina o Aigupita, a huai mai la o Iehova i ka makani mai ka hikina mai maluna o ka aina, ia la a po, ia po a ao; a i kakahiaka, hoopuka mai la ua makani hikina la i na uhini.
So Moses/I held out his/my stick [as though he/I was stretching it] over the whole land of Egypt. Then Yahweh caused a [strong] wind to blow from the east, and it blew over the land all that day and all that night. By the [next] morning, it had brought the locusts.
14 Lele ae la na uhini maluna o ka aina a pau o Aigupita, a kau iho la ma na mokuna a pau o Aigupita: he ino loa; aohe uhini mamua e like ai, aole hoi e hiki mai ana mahope o lakou na mea e like ai.
The locusts swarmed all over Egypt. It was larger than any swarm of locusts that had ever [been seen], and there will never be [a swarm of locusts like that] again.
15 No ka mea, uhi paapu iho la lakou i ka aina a pau, a poeleele hoi ka aina; ai iho la lakou i na laauikiai a pau o ka aina, a me ka hua a pau o na laau, a ka huahekili i waino mai ai; aole i koe kekahi mea uliuli ma na laau, a ma na laauikiai o ke kula, ma ka aina a pau o Aigupita.
They covered the surface of the ground and made it [appear] black. They ate all the plants in the land and everything on the trees that had not been destroyed by the hail. Nothing that was green was left on any plant or on any tree, anywhere in Egypt.
16 Alaila, wikiwiki ae la o Parao e hea mai ia Mose laua o Aarona, i mai la, Ua hana hewa wau ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua, a ia olua no hoi.
The king quickly summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “I have sinned against Yahweh, your god, and against you [two].
17 Ke noi aku nei au, e kala mai no hoi olua i keia hewa hookahi ana no, a e nonoi aku ia Iehova ike oukou Akua, i lawe aku ai ia i keia make wale no, mai o'u aku nei.
So now I ask you to forgive me this one time [for having] sinned, and pray to Yahweh your god to stop [these locusts] [MTY] [from causing everything] to die.”
18 Hele aku la ia mai o Parao aku, a nonoi aku la ia Iehova.
They/We left the king, and Moses/I prayed to Yahweh.
19 Huai hou mai la o Iehova i makani komohana ikaika, a lawe aku la ia i na uhini, a hoopaa iho la ia lakou iloko o ke Kaiula. Aohe uhini hookahi i koe ma ka aina a pau i Aigupita.
Then Yahweh changed the wind so that it blew [strongly] from the west, and it blew all the locusts into the Red Sea (OR, the Gulf of Suez). There was not one locust left anywhere in the country of Egypt.
20 Aka, hoopaakiki iho la o Iehova i ko Parao naau, aole ia hookuu aku i na mamo a Iseraela.
But Yahweh made the king stubborn [IDM] [again], and he did not let the Israeli people go.
21 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E o aku kou lima i ka lani, i kau mai ka poeleele maluna o ka aina o Aigupita, i aaki ka pouli.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Reach your hand up toward the sky, in order that there will be darkness over all the land of Egypt, a darkness [so complete] that people will have to grope around [to know where to walk].”
22 O aku la no ko Mose lima i ka lani, a pouli loa iho la ka aina a pau o Aigupita i na la ekolu.
So Moses/I reached his/my hand toward the sky, and it became totally dark all over Egypt for three days [and nights].
23 Aole loa lakou i ike i kekahi i kekahi, aole hoi i ala ae kekahi mai kona wahi ae, i na la ekolu; aka, o na mamo a pau a Iseraela, he malamalama ko lakou iloko o ko lakou mau hale.
People could not see each other. No one left his house during that whole time. But there was light in the area where the Israeli people were living.
24 Hea mai la o Parao ia Mose, i mai la, Ou haele oukou, e hookauwa aku na Iehova; aka, o ka oukou hipa, a me ka oukou bipi, e waiho ia lakou: e hele pu no hoi ka oukou poe keiki.
The king summoned Moses/me and said, “All right, you may go and worship Yahweh. [Your wives and] your children may go with you. But your flocks of sheep and goats and your herds of cattle must remain here.”
25 I aku la o Mose, E haawi mai hoi iloko o ko makou mau lima, i na mohai, a me na mohai kuni, i kanmaha aku ai makou na Iehova na ko makou Akua.
But Moses/I replied, “[No], you must let us [take along the sheep and goats, in order] that we may have [some of them] to sacrifice and give as burned offerings to Yahweh, our God.
26 E hele pu no hoi ka makou holoholona, aole e waihoia kekahi maanei; no ka mea, e lawe ana makou i na mea o lakou e malama'i ia Iehova i ko makou Akua: aole nae makou e ike i na mea o lakou ka makou e malama ai ia Iehova, a hiki aku makou ilaila.
Our livestock must also go with us; we are not going to leave one of them [SYN] behind. We must take them to worship Yahweh. We will not know [which animals to sacrifice] until we get to where we are going.”
27 Aka, hoopaakiki mai la o Iehova i ka naau o Parao, aole no ia i hookuu ia lakou.
But Yahweh made the king [continue to be] stubborn [IDM], and he would not let [the Israeli] people go.
28 I mai la o Parao ia ia, E hele aku oe pela, mai o'u aku nei, e malama ia oe iho, aole e ike hou mai i ko'u maka, no ka mea, i ka la au e nana hou mai ai i ko'u maka, e make oe.
The king said to me, “Get out of here! Make sure that you never come to see me [SYN] again! The day you see me again, [I will have] you executed!”
29 I aku la o Mose ia ia, Ua olelo pono mai oe; aole au e ike hou aku i kou maka.
Moses/I replied, “You are correct! You will never see me [SYN] again!”
