1 Pea hili ia naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo tala kia Felo, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, Tukuange ʻa hoku kakai ke ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke nau fai ʻae kātoanga kiate au ʻi he toafa.”

2 Pea pehēange ʻe Felo, “Ko hai ʻa Sihova, koeʻuhi ke u talangofua ai ki hono leʻo ʻo tukuange ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu? ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻiloa ʻa Sihova, pea ʻe ʻikai te u tukuange ʻa ʻIsileli ke ʻalu.”

3 Pea naʻa na pehē, “Kuo hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua ʻoe kau Hepelū kiate kimautolu: ko ia ʻoku mau kole ai kiate koe, tuku ʻakimautolu ke mau ʻalu ki he toafa, ko e fonongaʻanga ʻoe ʻaho ʻe tolu, ke feilaulau kia Sihova ko homau ʻOtua; telia naʻa hoko ia kiate kimautolu ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha pe ko e heletā.

4 Pea pehēange ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite kiate kinaua, “ʻE Mōsese mo ʻElone, ko e hā ʻoku mo taʻofi ai ʻae kakai ʻi heʻenau ngaahi ngāue? Mou fei mo ʻalu ki hoʻomou ngaahi kavenga.

5 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Felo, “Vakai, ko ʻeni, ʻoku tokolahi ʻae kakai ʻoe fonua pea ʻoku mou taʻofi ʻakinautolu mei heʻenau ngaahi kavenga.”

6 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Felo ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ki he kau enginaki ngāue ʻoe kakai, mo honau kau matāpule, ʻo pehē,

7 “ʻOua te mou kei ʻatu ki he kakai ʻae mohuku mōmoa ke ngaohi ʻae makaʻumea ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai: tuku ke nau ʻalu ʻo tānaki ʻae mohuku mōmoa maʻanautolu.

8 Pea ko hono lau ʻoe ngaahi makaʻumea ʻaia naʻa nau muʻaki ngaohi, te mou fakapapau ia kiate kinautolu; ʻe ʻikai te mou fakasiʻisiʻi ia, he ʻoku nau fakapikopiko; ko ia ʻoku nau tangi ai, ʻo pehē, Tukuange ʻakimautolu ke ʻalu ʻo feilaulau ki homau ʻOtua.

9 Fakalahi ki he ngāue ʻae kau tangata, koeʻuhi ke nau moʻua ai; pea ʻoua naʻa nau tokanga ki he ngaahi launoa.”

10 Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻae kau ʻenginaki ngāue ʻoe kakai, mo honau kau matāpule, ʻonau lea ki he kakai, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Felo, ʻE ʻikai te u ʻatu ʻae mohuku mōmoa kiate kimoutolu.

11 Mou ʻalu, ʻo maʻu ʻae mohuku mōmoa mei ha potu pe: ka ʻe ʻikai siʻi fakasiʻisiʻi ai hoʻomou ngāue.”

12 Pea ko ia naʻe movetevete ai ʻae kakai ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ke tānaki ʻae louveve ko e fetongi ʻoe mohuku mōmoa.

13 Pea naʻe fakavavevave ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau enginaki ngāue, ʻo pehē, “Fakakakato hoʻomou ngāue ki he ʻaho taki taha, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi he ʻi ai ʻae mohuku.

14 Pea ko e kau matāpule ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he kau enginaki ngāue ʻa Felo, ke pule kiate kinautolu, naʻe teʻia, pea ʻeke kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te mou fakakakato ai hono lau ʻoe maka naʻe tala ke ngaohi ʻaneafi, pea mo e ʻaho ni, ʻo hangē ko hono muʻaki fai?”

15 Pea haʻu ai ʻae kau matāpule ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Felo, ʻo tangi ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke fai pehē ai ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki?

16 ‌ʻOku ʻikai tuku mai ha mohuku mōmoa ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, pea ʻoku nau tala mai, ‘Ngaohi ʻae maka:’ pea vakai, kuo teʻia ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ka ko hono kovi ʻoku ʻi ho kakai ʻoʻou.”

17 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku mou fakapikopiko, ʻoku mou fakapikopiko: ko ia ʻoku mou pehē ai, ‘Tuku ʻakimautolu ke mau ʻalu ʻo feilaulau kia Sihova.’

18 Ko ia mou ʻalu ni ʻo ngāue: ʻe ʻikai ʻatu ha mohuku mōmoa kiate kimoutolu, ka te mou ʻatu hono lau totonu ʻo hoʻomou makaʻumea.”

19 Pea mamata ʻae kau matāpule ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻoku nau tuʻutāmaki, hili hono tala, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te mou fakasiʻisiʻi ʻae makaʻumea mei he ngāue ʻoe ʻaho taki taha.”

20 Pea naʻa nau fetaulaki mo Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻoku tutuʻu ʻi he hala, ʻi heʻenau haʻu kituʻa meia Felo.

21 Pea nau pehē kiate kinaua, “Ke vakai ʻa Sihova kiate kimoua, pea fakamaauʻi: koeʻuhi kuo mo fakanamukūʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, pea mo e ʻao ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ke ai ʻae heletā ʻi honau nima ke fakapoongi ʻaki ʻakimautolu.”

22 Pea naʻe toe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻEiki ko e hā kuo ke fai kovi pehē ai ki he kakai ni? Ko e hā kuo ke fekau ai au?

23 He talu ʻeku haʻu kia Felo ke lea ʻi ho huafa, kuo fai kovi ʻe ia ki he kakai ni; pea ʻoku teʻeki ʻaupito te ke fakamoʻui ho kakai.”
