Exodus 9
1 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Enter to Pharaoh, and say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people, to sacrifice to me.
Pea folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu kia Felo, ʻo tala kiate ia, ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai Hepelū, ‘Tukuange hoku kakai ke ʻalu,’ koeʻuhi ke nau tauhi au.”
2 But if you still refuse, and you retain them,
He kapau te ke taʻofi hono tukuange, mo ke puke pe ʻakinautolu,
3 behold, my hand will be over your fields. And a very grievous pestilence will be upon the horses, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the oxen, and the sheep.
Vakai, ko e nima ʻo Sihova ʻoku ʻi hoʻo ngaahi manu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue, ki he fanga hoosi, pea ki he fanga asi, ki he fanga kāmeli, ki he fanga pulu, pea ki he fanga sipi: ʻe ai ʻae mahaki lahi mo mamahi.
4 And the Lord will cause a miracle between the possessions of Israel and the possessions of the Egyptians, so that nothing at all will perish from those things which belong to the sons of Israel.”
Pea ʻe vaheʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi manu ʻa ʻIsileli mei he ngaahi manu ʻa ʻIsipite: pea ʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe mate ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
5 And the Lord appointed a time, saying: “Tomorrow, the Lord will accomplish this word in the land.”
Pea naʻe kotofa ʻe Sihova hono feituʻulaʻā, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni ʻapongipongi ʻi he fonua.”
6 Therefore, the Lord accomplished this word the next day. And all the animals of the Egyptians died. Yet truly, of the animals of the sons of Israel, nothing at all perished.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ko ia ʻi he ʻapongipongi, pea naʻe mate ai ʻae ngaahi manu ʻa ʻIsipite; ka ko e ngaahi manu ʻae kakai ʻIsileli, naʻe ʻikai mate ai ha taha.
7 And Pharaoh sent to see; neither was there anything dead of those things that Israel possessed. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not release the people.
Pea fekau ʻe Felo, pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai mate ha manu ʻe taha ʻi he kakai ʻIsileli. Pea naʻe fakafefeka ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻae kakai ke ʻalu.
8 And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron: “Take handfuls of ashes from the oven, and let Moses sprinkle it into the air, in the sight of Pharaoh.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, pea mo ʻElone, “Mo toʻo ʻae faluku ʻoe efuefu mei he ngotoʻumu, pea tuku ke laku hake ia ʻe Mōsese ki langi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo:
9 And let there be dust upon all the land of Egypt. For there will be sores and swelling pustules on men and on beasts, throughout the entire land of Egypt.”
Pea ʻe hoko ia ko e efu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, pea ʻe hoko ia ko e hangatāmaki mo e vakafoha, ki he tangata mo e manu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.”
10 And they took ashes from the oven, and they stood in the sight of Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkled it in the air. And there came sores with swelling pustules on men and on beasts.
Pea naʻa na toʻo mai ʻae efuefu ʻoe ngotoʻumu, ʻo na tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo: pea laku hake ia ʻe Mōsese ki langi; pea naʻe hoko ia ko e hangatāmaki, pea naʻe tupu ʻae vakafoha ki he tangata mo e manu.
11 Neither could the sorcerers stand in the sight of Moses, because of the sores that were on them and on all the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ʻae kau fie mana ʻi he ʻao ʻo Mōsese ko e meʻa ʻi he hangatāmaki; he naʻe ʻi he kau fie mana ʻae hangatāmaki, pea naʻe ʻi he kakai ʻIsipite kotoa pē.
12 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, just as the Lord said to Moses.
Pea naʻe fakafefeka ʻe Sihova ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai tokanga ia kiate kinaua; ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
13 And the Lord said to Moses: “Rise up in the morning, and stand in the sight of Pharaoh, and you will say to him: ‘Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: Release my people to sacrifice to me.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi, pea tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻo tala kiate ia, ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai Hepelū, ‘Tukuange hoku kakai ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke nau tauhi au.’
14 For at this turn, I will send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants, and upon your people. So may you know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
He te u fekau eni ʻa ʻeku ngaahi tautea kotoa pē ki ho loto, pea ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, pea mo ho kakai; koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ai ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi māmani ʻo hangē ko au.
15 For now, extending my hand, I shall strike you and your people with pestilence, and you will perish from the earth.
He ko ʻeni, teu mafao atu hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke u taaʻi koe mo ho kakai ʻaki ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha; pea ʻe tuʻusi koe mei māmani.
16 But it was for this reason that I appointed you, so that I may reveal my strength by you, and so that my name may be described throughout all the earth.
Pea ko e moʻoni kuo u fokotuʻu koe, koeʻuhi ke fakahā ʻiate koe ʻeku mālohi; pea ke fakaongo atu ai hoku huafa ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
17 Do you still retain my people, and are you still unwilling to release them?
ʻOku ke kei fakahikihiki koe ki hoku kakai, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke fie tuku ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu?
18 So then, tomorrow, at this same hour, I will rain down exceedingly great hail, such as has not been in Egypt from the day that it was founded, even until this present time.
Vakai, ko e feituʻulaʻā ni ʻapongipongi, Te u pule ke tō ai ʻae ʻuha maka fakamamahi lahi, naʻe ʻikai hano tatau ʻi ʻIsipite, talu hono fokotuʻu ʻo ia ʻo aʻu ki heni.
19 Therefore, send immediately and gather together your cattle, and all that you have in the field. For men and beasts, and all things that will be found outside, not gathered in from the fields, and on which the hail will fall, shall die.’”
Ko ia ke ke fekau ni, ke tānaki hoʻo fanga manu mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ke maʻu ʻi he ngoue; he ko e tangata kotoa pē mo e manu kotoa pē ʻaia ʻe ʻilo ʻi he ngoue, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻomi ia ki ʻapi, ʻe tō hifo ʻae ʻuha maka ki ai, pea te nau mate.”
20 He who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh caused his servants and cattle to flee together into the houses.
Pea ʻilonga ia naʻe manavahē ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Felo, naʻa ne pule ke puna ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e fanga manu ki he ngaahi fale:
21 But he who neglected the word of the Lord released his servants and cattle into the fields.
Pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai tokanga ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, naʻe tuku ʻe ia ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki mo e fanga manu ʻi he ngoue.
22 And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand into the sky, so that there may be hail in the entire land of Egypt, on men, and on beasts, and on every plant of the field in the land of Egypt.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Mafao atu ho nima ki langi: koeʻuhi ke hoko ʻae ʻuha maka ki he tangata mo e manu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, pea ki he ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue, ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.”
23 And Moses extended his staff into the sky, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and also lightning dashing across the earth. And the Lord rained down hail upon the land of Egypt.
Pea mafao atu hono tokotoko e Mōsese ki langi: pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻae mana mo e ʻuha maka, pea naʻe malele ʻae afi ʻi he funga fonua; pea naʻe fakaʻuha maka ʻe Sihova ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
24 And the hail and intermingled fire drove on together. And it was of such magnitude as had never before been seen in the entire land of Egypt, from the time when that nation was formed.
Pea naʻe ai ʻae ʻuha maka naʻe fefiofi mo e afi, ko e meʻa mamahi ʻaupito, naʻe ʻikai hano tatau ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite talu hono hoko ko e puleʻanga.
25 And the hail struck, throughout all the land of Egypt, everything that was in the fields, from man even to beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field, and it broke every tree of the region.
Pea naʻe teʻia ʻe he ʻuha maka ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he ngoue ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻae tangata mo e manu: pea teʻia ʻe he ʻuha maka ʻae ʻakau siʻi kotoa pē, pea ne fesiʻi ʻae ʻakau lahi kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, did the hail not fall.
Ka ko e fonua ko Koseni, ʻaia naʻe nofo ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha ʻuha maka.
27 And Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron, saying to them: “I have sinned even until now. The Lord is just. I and my people are impious.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Felo ke haʻu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinaua, “Kuo u fai angahala ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ni: ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova, ka ko au mo hoku kakai ʻoku angahala.
28 Pray to the Lord, so that the thundering of God and the hail may cease, so that I may release you, and so that you may by no means remain here any longer.”
Mo hū kia Sihova (he kuo lahi, ) ke ʻoua naʻa kei fai ʻae mana lahi mo e ʻuha maka; pea te u tuku ʻakimoutolu ke ʻalu, pea ʻe ʻikai te mou tatali.”
29 Moses said: “When I have departed from the city, I will extend my hands to the Lord, and the thunders will cease, and the hail will not be, so that you may know that the earth belongs to the Lord.
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate ia, “ʻI heʻeku hoko leva ki he tuʻa kolo, teu mafao atu hoku nima kia Sihova; pea ʻe tuku leva ʻae mana, pea ʻe ʻikai kei tō ʻae ʻuha maka: koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ai ʻoku ʻo Sihova ʻa māmani.
30 But I know that both you and your servants do not yet fear the Lord God.”
Ka ko koe mo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻe ʻikai te mou manavahē kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
31 And so, the flax and the barley were damaged, because the barley was growing, and the flax was already developing grains.
Pea naʻe teʻia ʻae falakesi mo e paʻale he naʻe fua ʻae paʻale, pea kamata fua mo e falakesi.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not damaged, because they were late.
Ka ko e uite mo e lai naʻe ʻikai teʻia, he naʻe teʻeki ai tupu hake.
33 And Moses, departing from Pharaoh out of the city, reached out his hands toward the Lord. And the thunders and hail ceased, neither did there drop any more rain upon the land.
Pea ʻalu ʻa Mōsese meia Felo ki he tuaʻā kolo, ʻo ne mafao atu hono nima kia Sihova: pea naʻe tuku ai ʻae mana mo e ʻuha maka, pea naʻe ʻikai kei tō ʻae ʻuha ki he kelekele.
34 Then Pharaoh, seeing that the rain, and the hail, and the thunders had ceased, added to his sin.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Felo kuo matuʻu ʻae ʻuha mo e ʻuha maka, mo e mana, naʻe toe fai angahala ia, ʻo fakafefeka hono loto, ʻaia mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
35 And his heart was weighed down, along with that of his servants, and it was hardened exceedingly. Neither did he release the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses.
Pea naʻe fefeka ʻae loto ʻo Felo, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu: ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
