Exodus 16
1 And they went on their way from Elim, and all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they went out of the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe hiki honau fononga mei ʻElimi, pea haʻu ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he toafa ko Sini, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ʻElimi mo Sainai, ʻi hono hongofulu ma nima ʻoe ʻaho, ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, hili ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
2 And all the children of Israel were crying out against Moses and Aaron in the waste land:
Pea naʻe lāunga ʻi he toafa ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Mōsese mo ʻElone.
3 And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kiate kinaua, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fakaʻamu ki he ʻOtua, naʻa mau mate ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi heʻemau kei tauʻutu ofi ki he ngaahi kulo kakano, pea ne mau kai mā ʻo mākona; he kuo mo ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki he toafa ni, ke tāmateʻi ʻae fakataha ni kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae fiekaia.”
4 Then the Lord said to Moses, See, I will send down bread from heaven for you; and the people will go out every day and get enough for the day's needs; so that I may put them to the test to see if they will keep my laws or not.
Pea naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Vakai, Te u fakaʻuha ʻae mā mei he langi maʻamoutolu: pea ʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai ʻo tānaki fakatuhotuha ki he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻae mā, koeʻuhi ke u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu, pe te nau felakaʻi ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau pe ʻikai.
5 And on the sixth day they are to make ready what they get in, and it will be twice as much as they get on the other days.
Pea ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho ʻe fai pehē, te nau ngaohi ʻaia kuo na tuku, pea ʻe tuʻoua hono lahi hake ʻi he mā ʻoku nau ʻomi ʻi he ʻaho kehe.”
6 And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, This evening it will be clear to you that it is the Lord who has taken you out of the land of Egypt:
Pea naʻe tala ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, “Te mou toki ʻilo ʻi he efiafi, kuo ʻomi ʻe Sihova ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite:
7 And in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord; for your angry words against the Lord have come to his ears: and what are we that you are crying out against us?
Pea ʻi he ʻapongipongi, te mou mamata ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova he ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou ngaahi lāunga pea ko hai ʻakimaua, koeʻuhi ke mou hanu ai kiate kimaua?”
8 And Moses said, The Lord will give you meat for your food at evening, and in the morning bread in full measure; for your outcry against the Lord has come to his ears: for what are we? your outcry is not against us but against the Lord.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻe Sihova ʻae kakano kiate kimoutolu ʻi he efiafi, mo e mā ʻi he pongipongi ke mou mākona ai; he ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova hoʻomou lāunga ʻaia ʻoku mou lāunga ai kiate ia: pea ko hai ʻakimaua? ʻOku ʻikai kiate kimaua hoʻomou lāunga, ka kia Sihova.”
9 And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the people of Israel, Come near before the Lord for he has given ear to your outcry.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Tala ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, Mou haʻu ʻo ofi ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova he kuo ne ʻafioʻi hoʻomou lāunga.”
10 And while Aaron was talking to the children of Israel, their eyes were turned in the direction of the waste land, and they saw the glory of the Lord shining in the cloud.
Pea vakai lolotonga ʻae lea ʻa ʻElone ki he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau sio atu ki he toafa, pea vakai, kuo ha mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻao.
11 And the Lord said to Moses,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
12 The outcry of the children of Israel has come to my ears: say to them now, At nightfall you will have meat for your food, and in the morning bread in full measure; and you will see that I am the Lord your God.
“Kuo u ongoʻi ʻae lāunga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: lea kiate kinautolu ʻo pehē, ʻi he efiafi te mou kai kakano, pea ʻi he pongipongi te mou mākona ʻi he mā: pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.”
13 And it came about that in the evening little birds came up and the place was covered with them: and in the morning there was dew all round about the tents.
Pea ʻi heʻene efiafi naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe haʻu ʻae fuifui kueili, pea naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻae ʻapitanga; pea ʻi he pongipongi naʻe ʻufiʻufi takatakai ʻae ʻapitanga ʻe he hahau.
14 And when the dew was gone, on the face of the earth was a small round thing, like small drops of ice on the earth.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻae hahau naʻe ʻūfia ai, vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he funga toafa ʻae meʻa siʻi potopoto, ʻo hangē ko e hahau fefeka ʻi he kelekele.
15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, What is it? for they had no idea what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which the Lord has given you for your food.
Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā ia?” He naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo pe ko e hā. Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu, “Ko e mā eni kuo foaki mai ʻe Sihova ke mou kai.
16 This is what the Lord has said, Let every man take up as much as he has need of; at the rate of one omer for every person, let every man take as much as is needed for his family.
Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Tānaki ia ʻe he tangata kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai, ko e oma ʻe taha mā ʻae tangata taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki he lau ʻo homou kakai; ke toʻo taki taha ʻae tangata maʻanautolu ʻoku ʻi hono ngaahi fale fehikitaki.”
17 And the children of Israel did so, and some took more and some less.
Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo tānaki ia, naʻe lahi ʻae niʻihi, pea siʻi ʻae niʻihi.
18 And when it was measured, he who had taken up much had nothing over, and he who had little had enough; every man had taken what he was able to make use of.
Pea kuo fakafuofua ʻaki ia ʻae oma, naʻe ʻikai hano toe, kiate ia naʻe tānaki ʻo lahi, pea ko ia naʻe tānaki siʻi naʻe ʻikai hano masiva; naʻa nau tānaki ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene kai.
19 And Moses said to them, Let nothing be kept till the morning.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “ʻOua naʻa tuku ʻe ha tangata hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi.”
20 But they gave no attention to Moses, and some of them kept it till the morning and there were worms in it and it had an evil smell: and Moses was angry with them.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga kia Mōsese; ka ko honau niʻihi naʻe tuku hano toe ki he ʻapongipongi, pea naʻe ʻuangahia ia, pea namuaʻa; pea naʻe ʻita ʻa Mōsese kiate kinautolu.
21 And they took it up morning by morning, every man as he had need: and when the sun was high it was gone.
Pea naʻa nau tānaki ia ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo tatau mo ʻene kai: pea ʻi he hoko ʻo vela ʻae laʻā, naʻe vai ʻo ʻosi ia.
22 And on the sixth day they took up twice as much of the bread, two omers for every person: and all the rulers of the people gave Moses word of it.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, naʻa nau tānaki ʻo tuʻo ua hono lahi hake ʻoe mā, ko e oma ʻe ua ki he tangata pe taha: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau pule kotoa pē ʻoe kakai ʻo tala ia kia Mōsese.
23 And he said, This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is a day of rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord: what has to be cooked may be cooked; and what is over, put on one side to be kept till the morning.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ia kuo folofola ai ʻa Sihova, Ko e mālōlō ʻoe Sāpate māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova ʻapongipongi: taʻo he ʻaho ni, ʻaia te mou taʻo, pea haka ʻaia te mou haka: pea ko ia ʻoku toe, hilifaki ia ki he ʻapongipongi maʻamoutolu.”
24 And they kept it till the morning as Moses had said: and no smell came from it, and it had no worms.
Pea naʻa nau hilifaki ki he ʻapongipongi, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese: pea naʻe ʻikai namuaʻa, pea naʻe ʻikai ha ʻuanga ʻi ai.
25 And Moses said, Make your meal today of what you have, for this day is a Sabbath to the Lord: today you will not get any in the fields.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Kai ia he ʻaho ni; he ko e ʻaho ni ko e Sāpate ia kia Sihova: ʻe ʻikai te mou ʻilo ia he ʻaho ni ʻi he ngoue.
26 For six days you will get it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.
Ko e ʻaho ʻe ono te mou tānaki ia; ka ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻaia ko e Sāpate, ʻe ʻikai siʻi ʻi ai ia.”
27 But still on the seventh day some of the people went out to get it, and there was not any.
Pea hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ke tānaki, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia.
28 And the Lord said to Moses, How long will you go against my orders and my laws?
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻE tuku ʻafē hoʻomou taʻefietauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi fono?
29 See, because the Lord has given you the Sabbath, he gives you on the sixth day bread enough for two days; let every man keep where he is; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
Vakai, ko e meʻa ʻi he foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae Sāpate kiate kimoutolu, ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ai kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono ono ʻoe ʻaho, ʻae mā ki he ʻaho ʻe ua: mou nofomaʻu taki taha ʻae tangata ʻi hono potu, ʻoua naʻa ʻalu ha tangata ʻe tokotaha mei hono potu ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.”
30 So the people took their rest on the seventh day.
Ko ia naʻe mālōlō ai ʻae kakai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho.
31 And this bread was named manna by Israel: it was white, like a grain seed, and its taste was like cakes made with honey.
Pea naʻe ui hono hingoa ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e Mana: pea naʻe hinehina ia ʻo hangē ko e tengaʻi kolianita; pea ko hono ifo naʻe hangē ha mā kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae honi.
32 And Moses said, This is the order which the Lord has given: Let one omer of it be kept for future generations, so that they may see the bread which I gave you for your food in the waste land, when I took you out from the land of Egypt.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, Fakapito ʻaki ia ʻae oma ʻe taha ke fakatolonga ki homou toʻutangata ʻamui: koeʻuhi ke nau mamata ki he mā naʻaku fafanga ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he toafa, ʻi heʻeku ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
33 And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot and put one omer of manna in it, and put it away before the Lord, to be kept for future generations.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Toʻo mai ha ipu, pea fakapito ʻae oma ʻe taha ʻi he mana ʻo lingi ia ki ai, pea hili ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke tauhi maʻa homou ngaahi toʻutangata.”
34 So Aaron put it away in front of the holy chest to be kept, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
Pea naʻe hili ia ʻe ʻElone ʻi he ʻao ʻoe Fuakava ke tauhi ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
35 And the children of Israel had manna for their food for forty years, till they came to a land with people in it, till they came to the edge of the land of Canaan.
Pea naʻe kai mana ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he fonua naʻe kakai; naʻa nau kai mana ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau hoko ki he veʻe fonua ʻo Kēnani.
36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
Pea ko e oma, ko hono vahe hongofulu ia ʻoe efa.
