I Samuela 8
1 A ELEMAKULE o Samuela, hoolilo aku la ia i kana mau keiki i mau lunakanawai no ka Iseraela.
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko ʻo motuʻa ʻa Samuela naʻa ne fakanofo hono ongo foha ke fakamaau ki ʻIsileli.
2 A o Ioela ka inoa o kana keiki mua, a o Abia ka inoa o ka lua o kana keiki: he mau lunakanawai laua ma Beereseba.
Pea ko hono hingoa ʻoe ʻuluaki foha ko Sioeli pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono tokoua, ko ʻApia pea ko e ongo fakamaau ʻakinaua ʻi Peasipa.
3 Aka, aole i hele kana mau keiki ma kona aoao; huli ae la laua mamuli o ka waiwai alunu, a lawe laua i ke kipe, a hookahuli i ka pono.
Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻa hono ongo foha ʻi hono ngaahi hala ʻoʻona, ka naʻa na tafoki ʻo kumi koloa, ʻo na maʻu koloa totongi, pea fakahalaʻi ʻae fakamaau.
4 Alaila hoakoakoaia'e la na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela, a hele mai io Samuela la ma Rama,
Pea naʻe toki fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo haʻu kia Samuela ki Lama,
5 I mai la ia ia, Aia hoi, ua elemakule oe, aole i hele kau mau keiki ma kou aoao: ano e hoonoho oe i alii no makou, nana makou e hooponopono e like me na lahuikanaka a pau.
ʻO nau pehē kiate ia, “Vakai kuo ke motuʻa, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻalu ʻa ho ongo foha ʻi ho ngaahi hala: pea ko eni fakanofo ha tuʻi moʻomautolu ke ne fakamaauʻi ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.”
6 Ua hewa ia mea i ka manao o Samuela, i ka lakou i olelo mai ai, E haawi oe i alii no makou, nana makou e hooponopono. A pule aku la o Samuela ia Iehova.
Ka naʻe kovi lahi kia Samuela ʻa ʻenau pehē, “Tuku kiate kimautolu ha tuʻi ke ne fakamaauʻi ʻakimautolu.” Pea naʻe lotu ʻe Samuela kia Sihova.
7 I mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, E hoolohe oe i ka leo o na kanaka i na mea a pau a lakou e olelo mai ai ia oe: no ka mea, aole lakou i hoowahawaha ia oe, aka, ua hoowahawaha mai lakou ia'u, i alii ole ai au maluna o lakou.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “Tokanga ki he leʻo ʻoe kakai ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku nau tala kiate koe: he ʻoku teʻeki ai tenau siʻaki koe, ka kuo nau siʻaki au, ke ʻoua naʻaku pule kiate kinautolu.
8 E like me na hana a pau a lakou i hana'i, mai ka manawa a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou mai Aigupita mai, a hiki i keia manawa, ia lakou i haalele ai ia'u, a malama aku i na akua e; pela lakou e hana nei ia oe.
Hangē ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻaia kuo nau fai talu ʻae ʻaho ʻaia ne u ʻomi ai kinautolu mei ʻIsipite, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia kuo nau liʻaki au, pea tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe; ʻoku pehē ʻenau fai kiate koe.
9 Ano hoi, e hoolohe oe i ko lakou leo; aka, e ao ikaika aku oe ia lakou, a e hoike aku hoi i ke ano o ke alii e alii ai maluna o lakou.
Pea ko eni, tokanga ki honau leʻo; ka ke valoki mamafa kiate kinautolu, pea fakahā kiate kinautolu hono anga ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia ʻe pule kiate kinautolu.”
10 Hai aku la o Samuela i ka olelo a pau a Iehova i na kanaka i noi ai ia ia i alii.
Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Samuela ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ki he kakai naʻe tala tuʻi kiate ia.
11 Olelo aku la ia, Eia ke ano o ke alii e alii ai maluna o oukou; E lawe no ia i na keikikane a oukou, a e hoonoho ia lakou nona ma na halekaa ona, a ma kona poe hoohololio, a e holo no kekahi mamua o na halekaa ona.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hono anga eni ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia ʻe pule kiate kimoutolu: Te ne toʻo homou ngaahi foha pea vaheʻi ʻakinautolu moʻona, ki heʻene ngaahi saliote, pea ke hoko ko ʻene kau heka hoosi; pea ke lele muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ngaahi saliote.
12 A e hoonoho no ia nona i na lunatausani a me na lunakanalima, a no ka mahi i kana mahi ana, a no ke oki ana i kana ai, a no ka hana ana i kana mea kaua, a me na mea o kona mau halekaa.
Pea ʻe fakanofo ʻe ia moʻona ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, mo e ʻeiki pule ki he ngaahi toko nimangofulu; pea te ne fakafatongia kinautolu ke keli ʻene ngoue, pea ke tuʻusi ʻene taʻu, pea kenau ngaohi ʻene mahafutau, mo e ngaahi meʻa ki hono ngaahi saliote.
13 A e lawe no ia i na kaikamahine a oukou i mea hana i na mea ono, a i mea kuke, a i mea kahu ai.
Pea te ne pule ke hoko ʻa homou ngaahi ʻofefine, ko e kau ngaohi mā melie, ko e kau teu kai, mo e kau taʻo mā.
14 A e lawe no ia i na mahinaai o oukou, a me ka oukou pawaina, a me ka oukou paoliva, i na mea maikai, a e haawi aku na kana poe kauwa.
Pea ʻe maʻu ʻe ia hoʻomou ngaahi ngoue, mo hoʻomou ngoue vaine, mo e ngoue ʻolive, ʻio, ʻaia ʻoku lelei lahi, pea ʻe foaki ia ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
15 A e lawe no ia i ka hapaumi o na hua a oukou, a o na pawaina, a e haawi aku na kona mau luna, me kana mau kauwa.
Pea te ne toʻo hono hongofulu ʻo hono vahe ʻi hoʻomou tengaʻi ʻakau, pea mo hoʻomou ngoue vaine, pea foaki ki heʻene kau matāpule mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
16 A e lawe no hoi ia i na kauwakane a oukou, a me na kauwawahine a oukou, a me ko oukou poe kanaka ui maikai, a me na hoki a oukou, a e hoonoho ia lakou no kana hana.
Pea te ne toʻo hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki, mo hoʻomou kau kaunanga, mo hoʻomou kau tangata toulekeleka, mo hoʻomou fanga ʻasi, ʻo tuku ʻakinautolu ki heʻene ngāue.
17 E lawe hoi ia i ka hapaumi o ka oukou poe hipa: a e lilo oukou i poe kauwa nana.
ʻE toʻo ʻe ia ʻo ʻave hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻo hoʻomou fanga sipi: pea te mou hoko ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
18 A e uwe nui oukou ia la, no ko oukou alii a oukou i koho ai no oukou; aole o Iehova e hoolohe mai ia oukou ia la.
Pea te mou tangi kalanga ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ko e meʻa ʻi he tuʻi ʻaia kuo mou fili moʻomoutolu; pea ʻe ʻikai ongoʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia.”
19 Aka, aole loa i hoolohe mai na kanaka i ka leo o Samuela: i mai la lakou, Aole, ua makemake no makou i alii maluna o makou,
Ka naʻe ʻikai tui ʻae kakai ki he leʻo ʻo Samuela, pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai, ka te mau maʻu ha tuʻi, ke pule kiate kimautolu;
20 I like ai makou me na lahuikanaka e a pau; a i hooponopono ko makou alii ia makou, a e hele ia mamua o makou, a e kaua aku i ko makou kaua.
koeʻuhi ke mau tatau foki mo e ngaahi puleʻanga; pea ke fakamaaua kimautolu ʻe homau tuʻi, pea ke ʻalu muʻomuʻa ia ʻiate kimautolu, ke fai ʻemau ngaahi tau.”
21 Hoolohe ae la o Samuela i ka olelo a pau a na kanaka, a hai aku la ia mea i na pepeiao o Iehova.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻe Samuela ki he ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻae kakai, pea ne lea ʻaki ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
22 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, E hoolohe oe i ko lakou leo, a e hoonoho oe i alii no lakou. Olelo aku la o Samuela i na kanaka o ka Iseraela, E hoi oukou, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona kulanakauhale.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “Tokanga ki honau leʻo, pea fakanofo ha tuʻi moʻonautolu.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, “Mou ʻalu, ko e tangata taki taha ki hono kolo.”
