ʻEkisotosi 10
1 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:
Yahweh akamwambia Musa, “Nenda kwa Farao, kwa kuwa nimeufanya moyo wake mgumu na moyo wa watumishi wake. Nimefanya hivi kuonyesha hizi ishara za nguvu zangu miongoni mwao.
2 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.”
Pia nimefanya hivi ili muwaambie watoto wenu na wajukuu wenu vitu nilivyo fanya, jinsi nilivyo itendea Misri kwa ukali, na jinsi nilivyo onyesha aina tofauti za ishara za nguvu zangu miongoni mwao. Kwa hili mtajua kuwa mimi ni Yahweh.”
3 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.’
Hivyo Musa na Aruni wakaenda kwa Farao na kumwambia, “Yahweh, Mungu wa Waebrania, anasema hivi: 'Kwa muda gani utaendelea kukataa kujinyenyekesha mbele zangu? Acha watu wangu waenda ili wakaniabudu.
4 Pea kapau te ke taʻofi ʻae tukuange ʻo hoku kakai, vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae fanga heʻe ki ho fonua ʻapongipongi:
Lakini ukikataa kuwaruhusu watu wangu kwenda, sikiliza, kesho nitaleta nzige kwenye nchi yako.
5 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:
Watafunika ardhi ya juu ili kwamba mtu asiweze kuona udongo. Watakula mabaki yote yalio salia kwenye mvua ya barafu ya mawe. Pia watakula kila mti unaokua shambani.
6 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.”
Watajaza nyumba zenu, zote za watumishi wenu, na zote za Wamisri wote - jambo ambalo baba zenu wala mababu zenu hawakuwai kuona, jambo ambalo halikuwai shuhudiwa toka walipo kuwa duniani hadi leo.”' Kisha Musa akaondoka na kutoka kwa Farao.
7 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?”
Watumishi wa Farao wakamwambia, “Mpaka lini huyu mwanaume ata kuwa msumbufu kwetu? Acha Waisraeli waende wakamuabudu Yahweh Mungu wao. Bado haujatambua kuwa Misri imeharibiwa?”
8 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?
Musa na Aruni wakaletwa tena kwa Farao, ambaye aliwaambia, “Nendeni amkamuabudu Yahweh Mungu wenu. Lakini watu gani wataenda?”
9 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.”
Musa akasema, “Tutaondoka na wadogo wetu na wakubwa wetu, pamoja na wana wetu na mabinti zetu. Tutaondoka na ng'ombe na kondoo zetu, maana lazima tufanye siku kuu ya Yahweh.”
10 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.”
Farao akawaambia, “Yahweh kwa kweli awe nanyi, kama nitawaacha muende na wadogo zenu waende. Angalia, una uovu kwenye nia.
11 “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.
Hapana! Nenda, wanaume tu miongoni mwenu, na mmuabudu Yahweh, kwa kuwa hilo ndilo mnalo litaka.” Kisha Musa na Aruni wakaondolewa uweponi mwa Farao.
12 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.”
Kisha Yahweh akamwambia Musa, “Nyoosha mkono wako kwenye nchi ya Misri palipo na nzige, ili washambulie nchi ya Misri na kula kila mmea, kila kitu barua ya mawe iliyo acha.”
13 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.
Musa akanyoosha na gongo lake juu ya nchi ya Misri, na Yahweh akaleta upepo wa mashariki juu ya nchi mchana wote na usiku mzima. Palipo kuwa asubui, upepo wa mashariki ulileta nzige.
14 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.
Nzige wakaenda nchi yote ya Misri na kuharibu sehemu zote. Hapajawai kuwa na kundi kama hilo la nzige juu ya nchi, hakuna kama tena kama hilo litawai kutokea.
15 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.
Walifunika ardhi yote ya juu ikawa giza. Walikula kila mmea na kila tunda la miti ambayo barafu ya mawe ilibakiza. Kila eneo la nchi ya Misri, hakuna mmea wa kijani ulibaki, wala mti au mmea wa shambani.
16 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.
Kisha Farao akawaita Musa na Aruni na kuwaambia, “Nimefanya dhambi dhidi ya Yahweh na dhidi yako.
17 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.”
Kisha sasa, nisamehe dhambi yangu wakati huu, na uombe kwa Yahweh Mungu wako aondoe hichi kifo kwangu.”
18 Pea naʻe ʻalu ia mei he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻo hū kia Sihova.
Musa akaondoka kwa Farao na kumuomba Yahweh.
19 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.
Yahweh akaleta upepo mkali wa magharibi ulio wachukuwa wale nzige na kuwapeleka Bahari ya Shamu; hakuna nzige ata mmoja aliye baki eneo la Misri.
20 Ka naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu.
Lakini Yahweh aliufanya moyo wa Farao mgumu, na Farao hakuacha Waisraeli waende.
21 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.”
Kisha Yahweh akamwambia Musa, “Nyoosha mkono wako kuelekea mbingu, ili kuwe na giza nchi yote ya Misri, giza linalo weza kuhisiwa.”
22 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:
Musa akanyoosha mkono wake kuelekea mbingu, na kulikuwa na giza nene nchi yote ya Misri kwa siku tatu.
23 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.
Hakuna aliye muona mwingine; hakuna aliye toka nyumbani mwake kwa siku tatu. Walakini, Waisraeli wote walikuwa na taa katika sehemu walizo ishi.
24 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.”
Farao alimuita Musa na kusema, “Nenda umuabudu Yahweh. Ata familia zenu za weza kwenda nanyie, lakini ng'ombe zenu na kondoo zenu zitabaki.”
25 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.
Lakini Musa akasema, “Lazima utupe wanyama kwa ajili ya dhabihu na sadaka za kuteketeza ili tuwatoe dhabihu kwa Yahweh Mungu wetu.
26 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.”
Mifugo yetu lazima iende na sisi; ata mmoja hawezi kubaki, lazima tuwapeleke wakamuabudu Yahweh Mungu wetu. Kwa kuwa hatujui tutakacho muabudu nacho Yahweh mpaka tufike pale.
27 Ka naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu.
Lakini Yahweh aliufanya moyo wa Farao mgumu, na hakuwaacha waende.
28 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.”
Farao alimwambia Musa, “Toka kwangu! Kuwa muangalifu na jambo moja, kwamba usinione tena, kwa kuwa siku utakapo uona uso wangu, utakufa.”
29 Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Kuo ke lea lelei, ʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata ki ho mata.”
Musa akasema, “Wewe mwenyewe umesema. Sitauona uso wako tena.”
