1 Naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe taʻu, mo hono hongofulu ʻoe māhina, pea mo hono hongofulu ma ua ʻoe ʻaho, ʻo pehē, 2 “Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea kikite kiate ia, pea mo ʻIsipite kātoa. 3 Lea, pea ke pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua:
Vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu kiate koe, ʻe Felo, tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite,
ʻa koe ko e kalokataile ʻoku tokoto ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ho ngaahi vaitafe,
ʻa koe kuo ke pehē, ‘Ko hoku vaitafe ʻoku ʻoʻoku pe ia,
pea kuo u ngaohi ia kiate au pē.’
4 Ka te u ʻai ʻeau ʻae mātaʻu ʻi ho ngutu,
pea te u pule ki he ika kotoa pē ʻi ho ngaahi vaitafe, ke nau pipiki ki ho ʻuno,
pea te u fusi hake koe mei he loto vaitafe,
pea ʻe pipiki ki ho ʻuno ʻae ika kotoa pē ʻi ho ngaahi vaitafe.
5 Pea te u tuku siʻaki pe koe ki he toafa,
ʻa koe mo e ika kotoa pē ʻo ho ngaahi vaitafe:
te ke tō atu ki he ʻatā ʻoe ngaahi potu ngoue;
pea ʻe ʻikai toe fakamaʻopo koe
pe tānaki:
kuo u foaki koe ko e meʻakai ki he fanga manu ʻoe vao,
pea mo e fanga manupuna ʻoe langi.
6 Pea ʻe ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite ko au ko Sihova, koeʻuhi kuo nau tatau pe mo e vaʻa kaho ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli. 7 ‌ʻI heʻenau puke koe ʻi honau nima naʻa ke mafesi, pea makohikohi ai honau nima kotoa pē: pea ʻi heʻenau faʻaki kiate koe naʻa ke fasi, pea fakahomohomo ai honau hokotanga hui kotoa pē.”
8 ¶ Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Vakai te u ʻomi ʻae heletā kiate koe pea tuʻusi meiate koe ʻae tangata pea mo e manu. 9 Pea ʻe lala mo vaoa ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsipite; pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova; koeʻuhi kuo ne pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku ʻoʻoku ʻae vaitafe, pea kuo u ngaohi ia ʻeau. 10 Vakai, ko ia ia ʻoku ou tuʻu au kiate koe, pea mo ho ngaahi vaitafe, pea te u ngaohi ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsipite ke lala ʻaupito mo vaoa mei Mikitoli mo Saiini ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻItiopea. 11 ‌ʻE ʻikai ʻalu atu ai ha vaʻe ʻo ha tangata, pe ʻalu atu ʻi ai ha vaʻe ʻo ha manu, pea ʻe ʻikai hano kakai ʻi ai ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu. 12 Pea te u ngaohi ke lala ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi fonua kuo lala, pea ko ʻene ngaahi kolo ʻi he ngaahi kolo kuo lala ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu: pea te u fakamovete ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea te u fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua. 13 Ka ko eni, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻI he hili ʻae taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, te u tānaki ʻae kakai ʻIsipite mei he ngaahi potu naʻe fakahēʻi ki ai ʻakinautolu. 14 Pea te u toe liliu mai ʻae pōpula ʻo ʻIsipite, pea te u pule ke nau toe haʻu ki he fonua ko Patalosi, ki he fonua ʻo honau nofoʻanga; ka te nau ʻi ai ko e puleʻanga moʻulaloa. 15 ‌ʻE māʻulalo hifo ia ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga; pea ʻe ʻikai te ne toe hiki hake ia ʻe ia ke māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga; he te u ngaohi ke fakaʻaʻau ki mui ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa toe pule ia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga. 16 Pea ʻe ʻikai toe hoko ia ko e falalaʻanga ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ka nau ka sio ki ai te nau manatuʻi ʻenau hia: ka te nau ʻilo au, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
17 ¶ Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu, ʻi hono ʻuluaki māhina, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe māhina, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē, 18 “Foha ʻoe tangata, naʻe pule ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki heʻene kautau, ke nau fai ʻae ngāue lahi ki Taia: naʻe tula ai ʻae ʻulu kotoa pē, pea mafohi ai ʻae uma kotoa pē: ka naʻe ʻikai haʻane totongi ʻaʻana, pe ko ʻene kautau, koeʻuhi ko Taia, mo e ngāue lahi naʻa ne fai ki ai: 19 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: Vakai, te u foaki ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite kia Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone; pea te ne maʻu hono kakai, pea maʻu hono koloa, pea veteki ia; pea ko e totongi ia ki heʻene kautau. 20 Kuo u foaki kiate ia ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite, koeʻuhi ko e ngāue ʻaia naʻa ne fai ki ai, he naʻa nau fai ia maʻaku, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua. 21 ‌ʻI he ʻaho ko ia te u ngaohi ke tupu ʻae moto ʻoe nifo ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pea te u tuku ke faʻa matoʻo ai ho ngutu ʻiate kinautolu; pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
