< Pukaana 7 >

1 I MAI la o Iehova ia Mose, e nana hoi, ua hoonoho wau ia oe i akua no Parao, a o Aarona kou kaikuaana, oia no auanei kou kaula.
Yahweh said to Moses, “See, I have made you like a god to Pharaoh. Aaron your brother will be your prophet.
2 O na mea a pau a'u e kauoha aku ai ia oe, oia kau e hai aku ai: a o Aarona kou kaikuaana ke olelo aku ia Parao, e hoouna aku ia i na mamo a Iseraela mai kona aina aku.
You will say everything that I command you to say. Aaron your brother will speak to Pharaoh so that he will let the people of Israel go from his land.
3 A e hoopaakiki auanei au i ka naau o Parao, a e hana no au i ko'u mau ouli a nui, a me ko'u mau mea mana ma ka aina o Aigupita.
But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and I will display many signs of my power, many wonders, in the land of Egypt.
4 Aole nae e hoolohe mai o Parao ia olua, i kau aku ai au i ko'u lima maluna o Aigupita, a e lawe mai iwaho i ko'u poe kaua i ka poe kanaka o'u, i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, me ka hoopai nui aku.
But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will put my hand on Egypt and bring out my groups of fighting men, my people, the descendants of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great acts of punishment.
5 A e ike auanei ko Aigupita, owau no Iehova, ia'u e hookakauha aku ai i ko'u lima maluna o Aigupita, a e lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela maiwaena mai o lakou.
The Egyptians will know that I am Yahweh when I reach out with my hand on Egypt and bring out the Israelites from among them.”
6 Hana iho la o Mose laua o Aarona, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia laua; pela laua i hana aku ai.
Moses and Aaron did so; they did just as Yahweh commanded them.
7 He kanawalu na makahiki o Mose, a he kanawalu na makahiki o Aarona a me kumamakolu, i ka wa a laua i olelo aku ai ia Parao.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose a me Aarona, i mai la,
Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron,
9 I ka wa e olelo mai ai o Parao ia olua, i ka i ana mai, E hoike mai olua i kekahi hana mana; alaila e olelo ae oe ia Aarona, E lalau i kou kookoo, a e kiola iho imua o Parao, a e lilo ia i nahesa:
“When Pharaoh says to you, 'Do a miracle,' then you will say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh, so that it may become a snake.'”
10 Hele aku la o Mose laua o Aarona io Parao la, hana iho la laua e like me ke kauoha ana a Iehova, a kiola iho la o Aarona i kona kookoo imua o Parao, a imua o kana poe kauwa, a lilo iho la ia i nahesa.
Then Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh, and they did just as Yahweh had commanded. Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a snake.
11 Kii aku la hoi o Parao i na kanaka akamai, a me na kilo; a o na magoi o Aigupita, hana iho la hoi lakou pela, i ko lakou kilokilo ana.
Then Pharaoh also called for his wise men and sorcerers. They did the same thing by their magic.
12 No ka mea, kiola iho la kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona kookoo iho, i lilo lakou i mau nahesa: aka, o ke kookoo o Aarona, moni iho la ia i ko lakou mau kookoo.
Each man threw down his staff, and the staffs became snakes. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their snakes.
13 A hoopaakikiia mai la ka naau o Parao, i hoolohe ole ai oia ia laua, e like me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai.
Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen, just as Yahweh had foretold.
14 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Ua hoopaakikiia ko Parao naau, i ole ai ia e hookuu mai i ka poe kanaka.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh's heart is hard, and he refuses to let the people go.
15 A kakahiaka ae, e hele oe io Parao la, aia e hele ana no ia i ka wai; e ku oe ma ke kapa o ka muliwai e halawai me ia: a e lawe oe ma kou lima i ke kookoo i lilo ai i nahesa.
Go to Pharaoh in the morning when he goes out to the water. Stand on the riverbank to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that had turned into a snake.
16 A e olelo aku oe ia ia, Ua hoouna mai nei ke Akua o ka poe Hebera ia'u ion nei, ua i mai, E hookuu mai oe i ko'u poe kanaka, i hookauwa mai lakou na'u ma ka waonahele: aia hoi, aole oe i manao e hoolohe mamua.
Say to him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you to say, “Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the wilderness. Until now you have not listened.”
17 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Ma keia mea e ike auanei oe, owau no Iehova: aia hoi, e hahau no wau i keia kookoo ma kuu lima, maluna o ka wai maloko o ka muliwai, a e lilo ia i koko.
Yahweh says this: “By this you will know that I am Yahweh. I am going to strike the water of the Nile River with the staff that is in my hand, and the river will be turned to blood.
18 A e make no ka ia maloko o ka muliwai, a e hoopailua ko Aigupita ke inu i ka wai o ka muliwai.
The fish that are in the river will die, and the river will stink. The Egyptians will not be able to drink water from the river.”'”
19 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E olelo aku oe ia Aarona, E lalau oe i kou kookoo, a e o aku kou lima maluna o na wai o Aigupita, ma na kahawai, a ma na muliwai, a ma na loko, a ma na huinawai a pau o lakou, i lilo ai lakou i koko: i hiki mai ke koko ma na aina a pau o Aigupita nei, maloko o ka laau, a maloko o ka pohaku.
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and reach out with your hand over the waters of Egypt, and over their rivers, streams, pools, and all their ponds, so that their water may become blood. Do this so that there will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, even in containers of wood and stone.'”
20 A hana iho la o Mose laua o Aarona e like me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai. Hapai ae la ia i ke kookoo a hahau iho la i ka wai maloko o ka muliwai, imua i ke alo o Parao, a imua i ke alo o kana poe kauwa: a lilo ae la ka wai a pau o ka muliwai i koko.
Moses and Aaron did as Yahweh commanded. Aaron raised the staff and struck the water in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants. All the water in the river turned to blood.
21 A make iho la ka ia maloko o ka muliwai; pilau mai la ka muliwai; aole i hiki i ko Aigupita ke inu i ka wai o ua muliwai la: a he koko no ma ka aina o Aigupita a pau.
The fish in the river died, and the river began to stink. The Egyptians could not drink water from the river, and the blood was everywhere in the land of Egypt.
22 Hana iho la no pela na magoi o Aigupita i ko lakou mea e kilokilo ai; a ua hoopaakikiia ka naau o Parao, aole hoi ia i hoolohe mai ia laua, e like no me ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai.
But the magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their magic. So Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he refused to listen to Moses and Aaron, just as Yahweh had said would happen.
23 Huli ae la o Parao, a hoi aku la i kona hale; aole hoi ia i kau aku i kona manao ma ia mea.
Then Pharaoh turned and went into his house. He did not even pay attention to this.
24 Kohi iho la ko Aigupita a pau i na wahi e kokoke ana i ka muliwai, i loaa'i ka wai e inu: no ka mea, aole i hiki ia lakou ke inu i ka wai o ka muliwai.
All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink, but they could not drink the water of the river itself.
25 A ua hala ae la na la ehiku mai ka wa mai o ko Iehova hahau ana i ka muliwai.
Seven days passed after Yahweh had attacked the river.
