1 A Ka whakahoki a Mohi, ka mea, Na, e kore ratou e whakapono ki ahau, e kore hoki e whakarongo ki toku reo; e mea hoki ratou, Kahore a Ihowa i puta mai ki a koe.
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 A ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, He aha tena i tou ringa? A ka mea ia, He tokotoko.
Pea pehēange ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻena ʻi ho nima? Pea naʻa ne pehē, Ko e tokotoko.”
3 Na ka mea ia, Maka atu ki te whenua. Na maka ana e ia ki te whenua, na, he nakahi! ko te tino rerenga o Mohi i tona aroaro.
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 Ka mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Totoro atu tou ringa, hopukia i te hiku: ko te toronga atu o tona ringaringa, hopukina iho, na, kua tokotoko ano ki tona ringa.
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 Kia whakapono ai ratou kua puta ki a koe a Ihowa, te Atua o o ratou matua, te Atua o Aperahama, te Atua o Ihaka, te Atua o Hakopa.
“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 I mea ano a Ihowa ki a ia, Tena, kuhua tou ringa ki tou uma: a kuhua ana e ia tona ringa ki tona uma; te unuhanga ano, na, kua repera tona ringa, kua rite ki te hukarere.
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 I mea ano ia, Whakahokia ano tou ringa ki tou uma: a whakahokia ana ano e ia tona ringa ki tona uma; a, no te unuhanga i tona uma, na, kua hoki, kua rite ki tona kiri ano.
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 A, ki te kore ratou e whakapono ki a koe, ki te kore e whakarongo ki te reo o te tohu tuatahi, na, ka whakapono ki te reo o to muri tohu.
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 A, ki te kore ano ratou e whakapono ki enei tohu e rua, ki te kore e whakarongo ki tou reo, utuhia e koe ki te wai o te awa, ka riringi ki te oneone maroke; a, ko te wai e utuhia e koe i te awa, hei toto ki runga ki te whenua maroke.
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 Na ka ki a Mohi ki a Ihowa, E toku Ariki, ehara ahau i te pukorero, i mua, i muri ranei i tau korerotanga ki tau pononga; he reo ngoikore hoki toku he arero paremo.
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 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Na wai i hunga te mangai o te tangata? Na wai hoki i mea kia wahangu, kia turi, kia titiro ranei, kia matapo ranei? Ehara koia i ahau, i a Ihowa?
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 Na, haere, a hei tou waha ahau, ako ai i a koe ki tau e korero ai.
Pea ko eni, ke ke ʻalu, pea ko au, teu ʻi ho ngutu, ke ako kiate ko e ʻaia te ke lea ʻaki.”
13 Na ka mea ia, E toku Ariki, mau ra e nga tau e unga ai.
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 Na ka mura te riri a Ihowa ki a Mohi; ka mea ia, Ehara ianei a Arona Riwaiti i te tuakana nou? E matau ana ahau he pukorero ia. Ina hoki, na, e haere mai nei ia ki te whakatau i a koe; a, ka kite i a koe, ka koa tona ngakau.
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 A mau e korero ki a ia, e hoatu nga kupu ki tona waha: a hei tou mangai ahau, hei tona mangai hoki, whakaako ai i a korua ki ta korua e mea ai.
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 A ko ia hei kaikorero mau ki te iwi; a, ko ia, ina, ka ai ia hei mangai mou, ko koe hoki hei atua ki a ia.
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 Maua atu ano tenei tokotoko i tou ringa, e mea ai koe i nga tohu.
Pea te ke ʻave ʻae tokotoko ni ʻi ho nima, ʻaia te ke fai ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga.”
18 Na haere ana a Mohi, hoki ana ki a Ietoro, ki tona hungawai, a ka mea ki a ia, Tukua ahau kia haere, kia hoki ki oku tuakana i Ihipa, kia kite kei te ora ano ranei ratou. A ka mea a Ietoro ki a Mohi, Haere i runga i te pai.
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 I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi i Miriana, Haere, e hoki ki Ihipa: kua mate katoa hoki nga tangata i whai i a koe kia patua.
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 Na ka mau a Mohi ki tana wahine ratou ko ana tama, a whakanohoia ana ki runga ki te kaihe, a hoki ana ki te whenua o Ihipa: i tango ano a Mohi i te tokotoko a te Atua ki tona ringa.
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 I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, E haere koe, e hoki ki Ihipa, kia mahara kia meatia ki te aroaro o Parao ena merekara katoa kua hoatu na e ahau ki tou ringa: otiia maku e whakapakeke tona ngakau, kia kore ai ia e tuku i te iwi.
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 A ka mea koe ki a Parao, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko Iharaira taku tama, taku matamua:
Pea te ke lea kia Felo, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ‘Ko hoku foha ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻio, ko hoku ʻuluaki.
23 Ko taku kupu ano tenei ki a koe, Tukua taku tama kia mahi ki ahau: a ki te kore koe e rongo ki te tuku i a ia, na, ka patua e ahau tau tama, tau matamua.
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 A i a ratou i te whare tira i te ara, na pono pu a Ihowa ki a ia, a ka whai i a ia kia whakamatea.
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 A ka tango a Hipora i tetahi kohatu koi, a kotia iho te kiri matamata o tana tama, na whakapakia ana e ia ki ona waewae, ka mea, He tane toto koe ki ahau.
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 Heoi ka tuku atu ia i a ia: i reira ano ka mea te wahine, He tane toto koe; mo te kotinga hoki.
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 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Arona, Haere ki te koraha, ki te whakatau i a Mohi, A haere ana ia, a ka tutaki ki a ia ki te maunga o te Atua, ka kihi i a ia.
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 A korerotia ana e Mohi ki a Arona nga kupu katoa a Ihowa i unga nei i a ia, me nga tohu katoa i ako ai ia ki a ia.
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 Na haere ana a Mohi raua ko Arona, a whakaminea ana nga kaumatua katoa o nga tama a Iharaira:
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻo fakakātoa ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
30 Na korerotia ana e Arona nga kupu katoa i korero ai a Ihowa ki a Mohi, mahia ana hoki e ia nga tohu i te tirohanga a te iwi.
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 A whakapono tonu te iwi: a, ka rongo ratou kua tae mai a Ihowa ki nga tama a Iharaira, kua titiro ki to ratou whakawhiunga, ka tuohu ratou, ka koropiko.
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.
