1 ʻI he tuai mai ʻa Mōsese, ʻoku fakalotoʻi ʻa ʻElone ʻe he kakai ke ne ngaohi ha fakatātā ki he pulu mui. 7 ʻOku houhau ai ʻae ʻOtua. 11 ʻOku fiemālie ia ʻi he fakakolekole ʻa Mōsese. 15 ʻOku ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mo e ongo maka. 19 ʻOku ne laiki ia. 20 ʻOku ne maumauʻi ʻae fakatātā. 22 Ko e fakamatala ʻa ʻElone. 25 ʻOku pule ʻe Mōsese ke tāmateʻi ʻae kau angahala. 30 ʻOku ne hūfia ʻae kakai.
1 Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai kuo tuai ʻae ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mei he moʻunga, naʻe fakataha ʻae kakai kia ʻElone, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake ʻo ngaohi hotau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻaia ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate kitautolu; he koeʻuhi ko Mōsese ni ko e tangata naʻe ʻomi ʻakitautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo pe kuo ʻi fē ia.” 2 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ʻElone kiate kinautolu, “Motuhi mai ʻae ngaahi hau koula, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he telinga ʻo homou ngaahi mali, mo homou ngaahi foha, mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine, pea ʻomi ia kiate au.” 3 Pea naʻe fesiʻi leva ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi hau koula naʻe ʻi honau telinga, ʻo ʻomi ia kia ʻElone. 4 Pea maʻu ʻe ia ʻi honau nima, pea hili ʻene haka ia ke ngaohi ʻae fakatātā ʻoe pulu mui, naʻa ne fakafuofua ia ʻaki ʻae meʻa tā; pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko ʻeni ho ngaahi ʻotua ʻe ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.” 5 Pea kuo mamata ki ai ʻa ʻElone, pea fokotuʻu ʻe ia ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻe fakahā ʻe ʻElone, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fai ʻae kātoanga kia Sihova ʻapongipongi.” 6 Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, ʻo ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino; pea naʻe nofo hifo ʻae kakai ke kai mo inu, pea tutuʻu hake ke fakavā.
7 ¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu koe, pea ke ʻalu ki lalo: he ko ho kakai, ʻaia kuo ke ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, kuo nau fakahalaʻi ʻakinautolu: 8 Kuo nau afe leva mei he hala ʻaia kuo u fekauʻi ai ʻakinautolu: kuo nau ngaohi moʻonautolu ʻae fakatātā haka ki he pulu mui, pea kuo nau hū ki ai, mo nau feilaulau ki ai, ʻo pehē, Ko eni ho ngaahi ʻotua ʻe ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ʻomi koe mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite. 9 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, Kuo u mamata ki he kakai ni, pea vakai, ko e kakai kia kekeva ia: 10 Pea ko ʻeni, tuku ai pe au, koeʻuhi ke tupu pe ʻo vela ʻeku tuputāmaki kiate kinautolu, pea koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu: pea te u fakatupu ʻiate koe ʻae puleʻanga lahi.” 11 Pea naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe Mōsese kia Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Sihova, ko e hā ʻoku tupu ʻo vela ai ho houhau ki ho kakai, ʻaia kuo ke aʻutaki mai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he mālohi lahi, pea ʻi he nima māfimafi? 12 Ko e hā ka lea ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē, naʻa ne ʻomi kovi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā, ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pea ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei he funga ʻo māmani? Tafoki mei ho houhau lahi, pea lolou ʻi he kovi ni ki ho kakai. 13 Manatu ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu naʻa ke fuakava ki ai ʻi he ʻafiona, mo ke pehē kiate kinautolu, Te u fakatupu ke tokolahi homou hako ke tatau mo e ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi, pea ko e fonua ni kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo u lea ki ai te u foaki ia ki homou hako, pea te nau maʻu ia ʻo taʻengata.” 14 Pea naʻe lolou ʻa Sihova ʻi he kovi ʻaia naʻa ne finangalo ke fai ki hono kakai.
15 ¶ Pea naʻe tafoki ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, mo e maka ʻe ua ʻoe fuakava naʻe ʻi hono nima: kuo tohi ʻae ongo maka ʻi hona potu fakatouʻosi: kuo tohi ia ʻi hono potu ʻe taha mo hono potu ʻe taha. 16 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ongo maka, pea ko e tohi ko e tohi ʻae ʻOtua, kuo tongi ki he ongo maka. 17 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Siosiua ki he longoaʻa ʻoe kakai ʻi heʻenau kalanga, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia Mōsese, “ʻOku longolongo tau ʻae ʻapitanga.” 18 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai ko e leʻo ia ʻokinautolu ʻoku mavava ʻi he mālohi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko e leʻo ʻonautolu ʻoku tangi ʻi he fakavaivaiʻi: ka ʻoku ou ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻonautolu ʻoku hiva.”
19 ¶ Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko ʻo ofi ki he ʻapitanga, naʻa ne mamata leva ki he fakatātā ʻoe pulu mui mo e meʻe hopohopo: pea tupu ʻo vela ʻae ʻita ʻa Mōsese, pea ne si ʻae ongo maka mei hono nima pea naʻe laiki ia ʻi he lalo moʻunga. 20 Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae pulu mui ʻaia naʻa nau ngaohi, ʻo tutu ia ʻi he afi, ʻo ne momosi ia ke efu, ʻo ne lī ia ki he vai, ʻo ne fakainu ʻaki ia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli. 21 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “Ko e hā naʻe fai ʻe he kakai ni kiate koe, kuo ke ʻomi ai ʻae angahala lahi pehē ni kiate kinautolu?” 22 Pea pehēange ʻe ʻElone, “Ke ʻoua naʻa tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae ʻita ʻa hoku ʻeiki: ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻae kakai, ʻoku pau pe honau loto ki he kovi. 23 He naʻa nau pehē mai kiate au, Ngaohi hotau ngaahi ʻotua, ʻaia ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate kitautolu: he koeʻuhi ko e Mōsese ni, ko e tangata naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakitautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo pe kuo ʻi fē ia. 24 Pea ne u tala kiate kinautolu, Ko ia fulipē ʻoku ai haʻanau koula, ke nau motuhi ia. Pea naʻa nau tuku mai ia kiate au: pea naʻaku si ia ki he afi, pea naʻe haʻu mei ai ʻae pulu mui ni.”
25 ¶ Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Mōsese, ʻoku telefua ʻae kakai; (he naʻe fakatelefuaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻElone ke nau mā ai ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo honau ngaahi fili:) 26 Naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Mōsese ʻi he matapā ʻoe ʻapitanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku kau mo Sihova? Ke haʻu ia kiate au. Pea ko e ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻo Livai, naʻa nau fakataha kiate ia.” 27 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Ke ʻai ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻene heletā ki hono vakavaka, pea ʻalu ʻo feʻaluʻaki ʻi he matapā ki he matapā ʻi he ʻapitanga kotoa pē, ʻo tāmateʻi ʻe he tangata hono tokoua, mo e tangata kotoa pē ʻene kaumeʻa, mo e tangata kotoa pē hono kaungāʻapi.’ ” 28 Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa Livai ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Mōsese: pea naʻe tō ai ʻi he kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae kau tangata ko e toko tolu afe nai. 29 He naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Fakatapui ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova he ʻaho ni, ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono foha, pea ki hono tokoua: koeʻuhi ke ne foaki ʻae tāpuaki kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni.”
30 ¶ Pea pongipongi ai, naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese ki he kakai, “Kuo mou fai ʻae angahala lahi: pea ko eni, te u ʻalu hake kia Sihova; heiʻilo pe teu lavaʻi ke fai ʻae fakalelei ʻi hoʻomou angahala.” 31 Pea naʻe toe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOiauē, kuo fai ʻae angahala lahi ʻe he kakai ni, pea kuo ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻotua koula. 32 Ka ko eni, kapau ʻe lelei te ke fakamolemole ʻenau angahala; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tāmateʻi au mei hoʻo tohi ʻaia kuo ke tohi.” 33 Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ko ia fulipē kuo fai angahala kiate au, te u tāmateʻi ia mei heʻeku tohi. 34 Ko ia, ke ke ʻalu ni, ʻo ʻave ʻae kakai ki he fonua, ʻaia naʻaku lea ai kiate koe: vakai, ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe a ʻeku ʻĀngelo ka ko e moʻoni ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku ʻaʻahi, Te u ʻaʻahi ʻenau angahala kiate kinautolu.” 35 Pea naʻe fakamamahi ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaohi ʻae pulu mui, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe ʻElone.
