Ekoruhe 11

1 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kia kotahi atu whiu e whakapangia e ahau ki a Parao, ki Ihipa; muri iho ka tukua koutou e ia i konei: ka tukua koutou, ina, ka tino peia katoatia koutou e ia i konei.

And the Lord said to Moses, I will yet bring one plague upon Pharao and upon Egypt, and after that he will send you forth thence; and whenever he sends you forth with every thing, he will indeed drive you out.

2 Korero inaianei ki nga taringa o te iwi, a ma te tane, ma te wahine, e tono he mea hiriwa, he mea koura i tona hoa, i tona hoa.

Speak therefore secretly in the ears of the people, and let every one ask of his neighbor jewels of silver and gold, and raiment.

3 A i meinga ano e Ihowa kia paingia te iwi e nga Ihipiana. Ko te tangata nei hoki ko Mohi, i nui rawa ki te whenua o Ihipa, ki te aroaro o nga tangata a Parao, ki te aroaro ano hoki o te iwi.

And the Lord gave his people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and they lent to them; and the man Moses was very great before the Egyptians, and before Pharao, and before his servants.

4 Na ka mea a Mohi, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Hei waenganui po ahau ka tika na waenganui o Ihipa:

And Moses said, These things says the Lord, About midnight I go forth into the midst of Egypt.

5 A ka mate nga matamua katoa o te whenua o Ihipa, te matamua a Parao e noho ana i runga i tona torona, a tae iho ana ki te matamua a te pononga wahine i tua i te mira; me nga matamua katoa a nga kararehe:

And every firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharao that sits on the throne, even to the firstborn of the woman-servant that is by the mill, and to the firstborn of all cattle.

6 A ka nui te tangi i te whenua katoa o Ihipa, kahore he pera i mua, e kore ano hoki e pera e takoto ake nei.

And there shall be a great cry through all the land of Egypt, such as has not been, and such shall not be repeated any more.

7 Otira e kore e oraora te arero o tetahi kuri ki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira, ki te tangata, ki te kararehe; kia mohio ai koutou e titore ana a Ihowa i waenga o nga Ihipiana, o Iharaira.

But among all the children of Israel shall not a dog snarl with his tongue, either at man or beast; that you may know how wide a distinction the Lord will make between the Egyptians and Israel.

8 A e haere ake enei tangata katoa au ki ahau, e piko ki ahau, e mea, Haere koe me te iwi katoa e haere ana i raro i ou waewae; a, muri iho ka haere ahau. A puta ana ia i a Parao, he nui hoki tona riri.

And all these your servants shall come down to me, and do me reverence, saying, Go forth, you and all the people over whom you preside, and afterwards I will go forth.

9 A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, E kore a Parao e rongo ki a korua, kia maha ai aku merekara ki te whenua o Ihipa.

And Moses went forth from Pharao with wrath. And the Lord said to Moses, Pharao will not listen to you, that I may greatly multiply my signs and wonders in the land [of] Egypt.

10 A meatia ana e Mohi raua ko Arona enei merekara katoa ki te aroaro o Parao: a, i whakapakeke ano a Ihowa i te ngakau o Parao, a kihai ia i tuku i nga tama a Iharaira i tona whenua.

And Moses and Aaron wrought all these signs and wonders in the land [of] Egypt before Pharao; and the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao, and he did not listen to send forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
