ʻEkisoto 7:1-25
7 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese: “Vakai, kuó u ʻai koe ke ke hangē ko e ʻOtuá* kia Felo, pea ko ʻĒlone ko ho tokouá tonu te ne hoko ko ha palōfita kiate koe.+
2 Te ke leaʻaki ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē te u tuʻutuʻuni kiate koé, pea ko ʻĒlone ko ho tokouá ʻe lea ia kia Felo, pea te ne tuku ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí ke nau ʻalu atu mei hono fonuá.
3 Ka ko au, te u tuku ke hoko ʻa Felo ʻo loto-fefeka,+ pea te u fakalahi ʻeku ngaahi fakaʻilongá mo ʻeku ngaahi maná ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipité.+
4 Ka ʻe ʻikai fanongo ʻa Felo kiate kimoua, pea te u hilifaki hoku nimá ki ʻIsipite pea ʻomi ʻa hoku fuʻu kakaí,* ʻa hoku kakaí, ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí, mei he fonua ko ʻIsipité ʻaki ha ngaahi tautea lahi.+
5 Pea ʻe ʻiloʻi moʻoni ʻe he kau ʻIsipité ko Sihova au+ ʻi he taimi te u mafao atu ai hoku nimá ki ʻIsipite ʻo ʻomi ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí mei honau lotolotongá.”
6 Naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese mo ʻĒlone ʻa e meʻa naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe Sihova kiate kinauá; naʻá na fai ʻa e meʻa tofu pē ko iá.
7 Naʻe taʻu 80 ʻa Mōsese pea taʻu 83 ʻa ʻĒlone ʻi he taimi naʻá na lea ai kia Feló.+
8 Pea naʻe folofola ange ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻĒlone:
9 “Kapau ʻe pehē atu ʻe Felo kiate kimoua, ‘Fai ha mana,’ peá ke tala kia ʻĒlone, ‘Toʻo ho tokotokó pea lī ia ki lalo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Feló.’ ʻE hoko ia ko ha fuʻu ngata lahi.”+
10 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻĒlone kia Felo ʻo na fai ʻa e meʻa tofu pē ko ia naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe Sihová. Naʻe lī ʻe ʻĒlone ʻa hono tokotokó ki lalo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo mo ʻene kau sevānití, pea naʻe hoko ia ko ha fuʻu ngata lahi.
11 Kae kehe, naʻe ui mai ʻe Felo ʻa e kau tangata potó mo e kau faifakalouʻakaú, pea naʻe fai foki ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki faimana ʻo ʻIsipité+ ʻa e meʻa tatau ʻaki ʻenau faimaná.*+
12 Naʻa nau taki taha lī ki lalo hono tokotoko, pea naʻe hoko ia ko e fanga ngata lalahi; ka naʻe folofua ʻe he tokotoko ʻo ʻĒloné honau ngaahi tokotokó.
13 Neongo ia, naʻe hoko ʻa Felo ʻo loto-fefeka,+ pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fanongo kiate kinaua, ʻo hangē pē ko ia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová.
14 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese: “ʻOku ongongataʻa ʻa e loto ʻo Feló.+ Kuó ne fakafisi ke tuku atu ʻa e kakaí ke nau ʻalu.
15 ʻAlu kia Felo ʻi he pongipongi haké. Vakai! ʻOkú ne ʻalu atu ki he vaí! Pea te ke tuʻu ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻi he ngutuʻi Vaitafe Nailá; peá ke toʻo ʻi ho nimá ʻa e tokotoko naʻe liliu ko ha ngatá.+
16 Pea kuo pau ke ke pehē kiate ia, ‘Kuo fekau mai au ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo e kau Hepeluú kiate koe,+ peá ne folofola mai: “Tuku mai ʻa hoku kakaí koeʻuhí ke nau ʻalu ʻo tauhi kiate au ʻi he toafá,” ka kuo ʻikai te ke talangofua ki ai ʻo aʻu mai ki he taimí ni.
17 Ko e meʻa eni ʻoku folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová: “Ko e meʻa eni te ke ʻilo ai ko Sihova aú.+ Ko eni te u taaʻi ʻa e vai ʻoku ʻi he Vaitafe Nailá ʻaki ʻa e tokotoko ʻoku ʻi hoku nimá, pea ʻe liliu ia ko e toto.
18 Pea ko e fanga ika ʻoku ʻi he Vaitafe Nailá te nau mate, pea ʻe nanamu ʻa e Vaitafe Nailá, pea ko e kau ʻIsipité ʻe ʻikai lava ke nau inu mei he vai ʻi he Vaitafe Nailá.”’”
19 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese: “Lea kia ʻĒlone, ‘Toʻo ho tokotokó pea mafao atu ho nimá ki he ngaahi vai ʻo ʻIsipité,+ ki hono ngaahi vaitafé, ki hono ngaahi mangaʻivaí,* ki hono ngaahi anó,+ pea ki he kotoa ʻo ʻene ngaahi tauhiʻanga vaí, koeʻuhí ke nau hoko ko e toto.’ ʻE ʻi ai ʻa e toto ʻi he kotoa ʻo e fonua ko ʻIsipité, ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi ʻaiʻanga meʻa ʻakaú mo e ngaahi ʻaiʻanga meʻa maká.”
20 Naʻe fai leva ʻe Mōsese mo ʻĒlone ʻa e meʻa tofu pē ko ia naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe Sihová. Naʻá ne hiki hake ʻa e tokotokó ʻo taaʻi ʻa e vai naʻe ʻi he Vaitafe Nailá ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo mo ʻene kau sevānití, pea ko e kotoa ʻo e vai naʻe ʻi he vaitafé naʻe liliu ia ko e toto.+
21 Pea naʻe mate ʻa e fanga ika naʻe ʻi he vaitafé,+ pea naʻe kamata ke nanamu ʻa e vaitafé, pea naʻe ʻikai lava ʻa e kau ʻIsipité ke inu ʻa e vai mei he Vaitafe Nailá,+ pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e toto ʻi he fonua kotoa ko ʻIsipité.
22 Ka neongo ia, naʻe fai ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki faimana ʻo ʻIsipité ʻa e meʻa tatau ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi mana fakaliloliló,+ ko ia naʻe hokohoko atu ai ʻa e loto-fefeka ʻa Feló, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fanongo kiate kinaua, ʻo hangē tofu pē ko ia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová.+
23 Naʻe foki leva ʻa Felo ki hono falé, pea naʻe ʻikai foki tokanga hono lotó ki he meʻá ni.
24 Ko ia naʻe keli takai holo ʻa e kau ʻIsipité kotoa ʻi he Vaitafe Nailá ki ha vai ke nau inu, koeʻuhí naʻe ʻikai lava ke nau inu ha vai mei he Vaitafe Nailá.
25 Pea naʻe ʻosi atu ʻa e ʻaho kakato ʻe fitu mei hono taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e Vaitafe Nailá.
