¹And Jehovah said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for by a strong hand shall he let them go, and by a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.

¹¶ NA ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Akuanei koe kite ai i taku e mea ai ki a Parao; he kaha hoki te ringa e tuku ai ia i a ratou, he kaha hoki te ringaringa e pei ai ia i a ratou i tona whenua.

²And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am Jehovah:

²A ka korero te Atua ki a Mohi, ka mea ki a ia, Ko Ihowa ahau:

³and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty; but by my name Jehovah I was not known to them.

³I oku putanga ia ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, ko te Atua Kaha Rawa ahau, otiia kihai ratou i mohio ki ahau, ko IHOWA toku ingoa.

⁴And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they sojourned.

⁴Ka whakamana ano e ahau taku kawenata ki a ratou, kia hoatu te whenua o Kanaana ki a ratou, te whenua o to ratou nohoanga manenetanga, i noho manene ai ratou.

⁵And moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant.

⁵Kua rongo ano ahau ki te aue a nga tama a Iharaira, e whakamahia nei e nga Ihipiana, kua mahara hoki ki taku kawenata.

⁶Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am Jehovah, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments:

⁶Mo konei me ki e koe ki nga tama a Iharaira, Ko Ihowa ahau, a maku koutou e whakaputa i raro i nga kawenga a nga Ihipiana, maku hoki koutou e tango i ta ratou whakamahinga, he maro hoki te ringa, he nui nga whakawa, e whakaora ai ahau i a koutou:

⁷and I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah your God, who bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

⁷A ka tongo ahau i a koutou hei iwi maku, ko ahau ano hei Atua mo koutou: a e mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua, e whakaputa ana i a koutou i raro i nga kawenga a nga Ihipiana.

⁸And I will bring you in unto the land which I sware to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for a heritage: I am Jehovah.

⁸Maku ano hoki koutou e kawe atu ki te whenua i whakamaro ai ahau i toku ringaringa mo reira kia hoatu ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa: a ka hoatu a reira e ahau ki a koutou hei kainga tuturu: ko Ihowa ahau.

⁹And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.

⁹A he pena ta Mohi korero ki nga tama a Iharaira: otiia kihai ratou i whakarongo ki a Mohi i te mamae o te ngakau, i te kino o te mahi.

¹⁰And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

¹⁰¶ I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

¹¹Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

¹¹Haere, korero ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa kia tukua e ia nga tama a Iharaira i tona whenua.

¹²And Moses spake before Jehovah, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised lips?

¹²Na ka korero a Mohi i te aroaro o Ihowa, ka mea, Nana, kahore nga tama a Iharaira i whakarongo ki ahau; me pehea e rongo ai a Parao ki ahau, he ngutu kokotikore nei hoki ahau?

¹³And Jehovah spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the children of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

¹³Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, homai ana e ia ki a raua he ako ki nga tama a Iharaira, ki a Parao hoki kingi o Ihipa, mo nga tama a Iharaira kia whakaputaina i te whenua o Ihipa.

²⁶These are that Aaron and Moses, to whom Jehovah said, Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their hosts.

²⁶Ko taua Arona raua ko Mohi tenei i korero nei a Ihowa ki a raua, kia whakaputaina mai nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa, tenei ropu, tenei ropu o ratou.

²⁷These are they that spake to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt: these are that Moses and Aaron.

²⁷Ko raua enei nana i korero ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, kia whakaputaina mai nga tama a Iharaira i Ihipa: ko taua Mohi raua ko Arona tenei.

²⁸And it came to pass on the day when Jehovah spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt,

²⁸A i te ra ano i korero ra a Ihowa ki a Mohi i te whenua o Ihipa,

²⁹that Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, I am Jehovah: speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I speak unto thee.

²⁹Ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, ka mea, Ko Ihowa ahau: korerotia ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa nga mea katoa e korero nei ahau ki a koe.

³⁰And Moses said before Jehovah, Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?

³⁰A ka mea a Mohi i te aroaro o Ihowa, Nana, he ngutu kokotikore ahau, a me pehea e rongo ai a Parao ki ahau?
