1Pea naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “Ko eni, te ke mamata ki he meʻa te u fai kia Felo: koeʻuhi ʻi he nima mālohi te ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu, pea ʻi he nima mālohi te ne kapusi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua.”
1But the LORD said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh, for because of My mighty hand he will let the people go; because of My strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”
2Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Mōsese, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko au ko Sihova.
2God also told Moses, “I am the LORD.
3Pea naʻaku fakahā au kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo Sēkope, ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi, ka ko hoku huafa KO SIHOVA, naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo ai au ʻekinautolu.
3I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by My name the LORD I did not make Myself known to them.
4Pea kuo u fakapapau ʻeku fuakava mo kinautolu, ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae fonua ko Kēnani, ko e fonua ʻo ʻenau fononga fano, ʻaia naʻa nau nofo ai ko e muli.
4I also established My covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as foreigners.
5Pea kuo u ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi toʻe foki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kei fakapōpulaʻi ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite: pea kuo u manatuʻi ʻeku fuakava.
5Furthermore, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered My covenant.
6Ko ia, lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ‘Ko au ko Sihova, pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu kituʻa mei he ngaahi kavenga ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, pea te u fakangata ʻa hoʻomou pōpula kiate kinautolu, pea teu huhuʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae nima kuo mafao, mo e ngaahi tautea lahi:
6Therefore tell the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians and deliver you from their bondage. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.
7Pea te u maʻu ʻakimoutolu kiate au ko hoku kakai, pea teu ʻiate kimoutolu ko homou ʻOtua: pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻoku ou ʻomi ʻakimoutolu kituʻa mei he ngaahi kavenga ʻae kakai ʻIsipite.
7I will take you as My own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
8Pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he fonua, ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai ke foaki ia kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo Sēkope; pea te u foaki ia kiate kimoutolu ko e tofiʻa: Ko au ko Sihova.’”
8And I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD!’”
9¶ Pea naʻe lea pehē ʻe Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga kia Mōsese ko e meʻa ʻi he feinga ʻa honau laumālie, mo e māmani ʻo honau pōpula.
9Moses relayed this message to the Israelites, but on account of their broken spirit and cruel bondage, they did not listen to him.
10Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
10So the LORD said to Moses,
11“ʻAlu, ʻo lea kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ke ne tukuange ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻalu mei hono fonua.”
11“Go and tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his land.”
12Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kiate au: pea ʻe tokanga fēfeeʻi ʻa Felo kiate au, ko e loungutu taʻekamu ko au?”
12But in the LORD’s presence Moses replied, “If the Israelites will not listen to me, then why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I am unskilled in speech?”
13Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, pea mo ʻElone, “ʻO ne tuku kiate kinaua ʻae fekau ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ke ʻomi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.”
13Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge concerning both the Israelites and Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.

27Ko kinaua ʻeni ʻaia naʻa na lea kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ke ʻomi kituaʻā ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite: ko eni ʻae Mōsese mo e ʻElone ko ia.”
