< Pukaana 15 >
1 A LAILA mele aku la o Mose, a me na mamo a Iseraela i keia mele ia Iehova: olelo aku la ia me ka i ana aku, Ia Iehova no wau e mele aku ai, No ka mea, ua hoonani loa oia ia ia iho; Ua kiola oia i ka lio, a me kona mea hooholo iloko o ke kai.
Then Moses/I sang this song, and the Israeli people sang with him: “I will sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously; He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea!
2 O Iehova no ko'u ikaika, a me ka'u mele, Oia ko'u hoola, o ko'u Akua hoi ia, E hoomakaukau no wau i wahi nona e noho ai. O ke Akua no ia o ko'u makua, A e mililani aku au ia ia.
Yahweh is the one who makes me strong, and he is the one I sing about. He is the one who has saved me. He is (my God/God, the one I worship), and I will praise him. He is the one my father worshiped, and I will tell [others] how great he is.
3 He kanaka kaua o Iehova, O Iehova no kona inoa.
Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh is his name.
4 Ua ka oia i ke kai i na kaakaua o Parao, A me kona poe koa; Ua poho ilalo o ke Kaiula kona poe kaua ma na kaa:
He has thrown the king’s chariots and his army into the sea; His best officers all drowned in the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez).
5 Ua poipu ka hohonu ia lakou; Poho lakou ilalo me he pohaku la.
The [water covered them like] a flood; they sank to the bottom like a stone.
6 Ua nani kou lima akau, e Iehova, no ka mana; Na kou lima akau, e Iehova, i paki iho i ka enemi.
O Yahweh, your right arm has awesome power; with that power [MTY], O Yahweh, you have crushed/smashed the enemy into pieces.
7 I ka nui o kou nani, ua hoopuehu aku oe i ka poe i ala ku e mai ia oe; Hoouna aku oe i kou huhu, Pau iho la lakou me he opala la.
You have gloriously defeated your enemies. Because you were angry with them, you have [destroyed them] like a fire burns up straw [SIM].
8 I ka hoohanu ana o kou mau pukaihu, ua hoakoakoaia mai na wai, Ea ae la na wai iluna, me he puu la: Lilo no ka hohonu i mea paa maloko o ka opu o ke kai.
You blew on the sea, and the water piled up high; the water stood up like two walls. In the deepest part of the sea [the water] became thick/solid, [as though] it was frozen.
9 I iho la ka enemi, E hahai aku no au, E loaa no, a puunauwe aku i ka waiwai pio. E maona auanei ko'u kuko ia lakou, E unuhi au i ko'u pahikaua, A e loaa hou no lakou i ko'u lima.
[Our] enemies said, ‘We will pursue them and catch up to them. We will draw our swords and strike them. After we defeat them, we will divide up the spoils. We will take [from them] all we want.’
10 Pupuhi no oe me kou makani, Uhi mai la ke kai ia lakou, Poho iho la lakou ilalo i ke kai me he kepau la.
But you blew on them with your breath, and then the sea covered them. They sank like lead/rocks in the big waves.
11 Owai ka mea iwaena o ka poe ikaika e like me oe, e Iehova? Owai kou mea like, ma ka nani o ka hemolele? He mea weliweli ka hoomana aku, Ua hana oe i na mea kupanaha.
Yahweh, among their gods, there is no god like you [RHQ]! You are glorious, completely different from all that you made. (There is no god like you!/What god is like you?) [RHQ] There is no one who can perform all kinds of miracles [DOU] like you do [RHQ]!
12 O aku la no kou lima akau, Ale iho la ka honua ia lakou.
When you stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed up [our enemies]
13 Ma ka lokomaikai no oe i alakai mai ai i na kanaka au i hoolapanai ai; Me kou mana no oe i alakai ai ia lakou i kahi hemolele au i noho ai.
You faithfully loved the people you rescued; with your power you are leading them to the land that you have set apart.
14 E lohe auanei na kanaka, a e makau hoi. E loohia auanei ka poe noho ma Palisetina i ka weliweli.
The people of [other] nations will hear [what you have done]; and they will tremble. The people in Philistia will be terrified.
15 Alaila, e weliweli mai na'lii o Edoma, E loohia no hoi ka poe ikaika o Moaba i ka haalulu, E hehee auanei ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Kanaana.
The chiefs in Edom will be dismayed. The leaders in Moab will be so afraid, they will shake. All those who live in Canaan will faint.
16 E kau mai no ka makau a me ka weliweli maluna o lakou; No ka nui o kou lima e noho malie lakou me he pohaku la; A hala'e kou poe kanaka, e Iehova, A hala'e na kanaka au i hoolapanai ai.
They will be terrified and fearful because of your great strength [MTY]. But they will be as silent as stones until your people march past them, the people you freed from being slaves in Egypt,
17 Nau no lakou e hookomo, A e hoonoho hoi ia lakou ma ka puu o kou hooilina, I kahi au i hana'i i wahi e noho ai nou, e Iehova, I ke keenakapu hoi a kou mau lima i hookumu ai, e ka Haku.
to go to [Canaan land]. You will enable them to live [MET] on your hill, at the place that you, O Yahweh, have chosen to be your home, in the (holy place/temple) that you yourself will build.
18 E noho alii mau loa aku no o Iehova.
O Yahweh, you will rule forever!
19 No ka mea, hele ae la ka lio o Parao, Me kona kaahaua, a me na hoohololio ona, A iloko o ke kai, A hoihoi mai la o Iehova i na wai o ke kai maluna o lakou; Aka, o na mamo a Iseraela, Hele ae la lakou ma kahi maloo mawaenakonu o ke kai.
The Israeli people walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground. But when the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen tried to go through the sea, Yahweh caused the water to come back and cover them.”
20 A o Miriama, ke kaula wahine, ke kaikuwahine o Aarona, lawe ae la ia i mea kuolokani ma kona lima, a hahai aku la na wahine a pau mamuli ona, me na mea kuolokai, a me ka hula.
Then Miriam, who was Aaron’s older sister and a (prophetess/woman who spoke messages that came directly from God), picked up her tambourine,
21 I mai la o Miriama ia lakou, E mele aku oukou ia Iehova, No ka mea, ua lanakila loa oia, Ua kiola oia i ka lio a me kona mea hooholo i ke kai.
and she sang this song to Yahweh: “Sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously [over his enemies]. He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea.”
22 Pela i lawe mai ai o Mose i ka Iseraela, mai ke Kaiula mai, a hele mai la lakou i ka waonahele i Sura; hele mai la lakou maloko o ka waonahele i na la ekolu, aole hoi i loaa ka wai.
Then Moses/I led the Israeli people away from the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez). They/we went to the desert at Shur. They/We walked for three days, but they/we could not find any water.
23 A hiki mai la lakou i Mara; aole hiki ia lakou ke inu i ka wai o Mara, no ka mea, ua mulea ia; no ia mea, i kapaia'ku ai ia o Mara.
So they/we [went on and] came to a [place named] Marah. [There was] water [there, but] they/we could not drink it, because it was bitter. That is why they named the place Marah, [which is the Hebrew word that means ‘bitter’].
24 Ohumu ae la na kanaka ia Mose, i ae la, Heaha la ko makou mea inu?
The people complained to Moses/me, saying, “What are we going to drink?”
25 Uwe aku la oia ia Iehova; a hoike mai la o Iehova ia ia i kekahi laau, a hooleiia'ku la ia mea e ia iloko o ka wai, hanaia mai la ka wai a ono: malaila ia i hana'i i olelo kupaa no lakou, a i kanawai hoi, a maiaila oia i hoao ai ia lakou.
So Moses/I prayed earnestly to Yahweh. Then Yahweh showed him/me a tree. So he/I cut off [one of the branches] and threw it into the water, and the water became good to drink. There at Marah, Yahweh gave them various laws to direct their lives. He also tested them there, to determine if they would obey him,
26 I mai la, A i hoolohe mau mai oe i ka leo o Iehova, o kou Akua, a e hana i ka mea pono imua o kona maka, a e hoolohe i ka mea ana e kauoha mai ai, a malama i kona mau kanawai, alaila aole au e kau maluna ou i kekahi o keia mau mai a'u i kau ai maluna o ko Aigupita; no ka mea, owau no Iehova, ka mea hoola aku ia oe.
by saying, “I am Yahweh, your God. If you will carefully obey me when I speak [to you], and do those things that I know are right, and pay close attention to all the things that I command you, I will keep you from being afflicted by all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians. Do not forget that I am the one who heals you.”
27 A hele mai la lakou i Elima, malaila na punawai he umikumamalua, a me na laau pama he kanahiku: noho iho la lakou ilaila ma kahi o na wai.
[After they/we left Marah], they/we came to a [place named] Elim. There were twelve springs of water and 70 palm trees there. So they/we camped there.
