Kinohi 37
1 NOHO aka la o Iakoba ma ka aina a kona makuakane i noho malihini ai, ma ka aina i Kanaana.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Sēkope ʻi he fonua naʻe ʻāunofo ki ai ʻene tamai, ʻio, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.
2 Eia ka mooolelo no Iakoba. He umi ko Iosepa makahiki a me kumamahiku, e hanai ana oia i na holoholona me kona poe kaikuaana, e noho pu ana o ua keiki la me na keikikane a Bileha, a me na keikikane a Zilepa, na wahine a kona makuakane, a hai mai la o Iosepa i ka makuakane o lakou i ka lono ino o lakou.
Ko e hako eni ʻo Sēkope naʻe hongofulu ma fitu ʻae taʻu ʻo Siosefa, pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ʻae fanga manu, ʻo fakataha mo hono ngaahi taʻokete; pea naʻe nofo ʻae tama mo e ongo tama ʻa Pila, pea mo e fānau ʻa Silipa, ko e ongo sinifu ʻo ʻene tamai: pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene tamai ʻenau ongoongo kovi.
3 Ua oi aku la ke aloha o Iseraela ia Iosepa mamua o kana mau keiki a pau, no ka mea, he keiki ia no kona wa elemakule: a hana iho la ia i kapakomo onionio nona.
Pea naʻe ʻofa lahi hake ʻa ʻIsileli kia Siosefa ʻi heʻene fānau kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko hono foha ia ʻi heʻene motuʻa; pea ne ngaohi maʻana ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule.
4 A ike iho la kona poe kaikuaana i ke kela ana aku o ke aloha o ko lakou makuakane ia Iosepa mamua o kona poe hoahanau a pau, inaina aku la lakou ia Iosepa, aole i hiki ke olelo oluolu aku ia ia.
Pea kuo mamata hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻoku ʻofa lahi hake ʻenau tamai kiate ia, ʻi hono taʻokete kotoa pē, naʻa nau fehiʻa ai kiate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau lea lelei kiate ia.
5 Moe iho la o Iosepa i ka moe, a hai aku la i kona poe kaikuaana, a nui hou mai la ko lakou inaina ana ia ia.
Pea misi ʻe Siosefa ʻae misi, pea ne tala ia ki hono ngaahi taʻokete; pea naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻenau fehiʻa kiate ia.
6 I aku la ia ia lakou, Ea, e hoolohe mai oukou i keia moe a'u i moe ai.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ou kole ke mou fanongo ki he misi ni, kuo u misi ʻaki;
7 Eia hoi, i ka pua ana a kakou i na pua, ma ka mahina ai, ala mai la ka'u pua, a kupono ae la iluna; a o ka oukou mau pua ka i ku poai mai la, a kulou iho la i ka'u pua.
He naʻa tau nonoʻo ʻae ngaahi u koane ʻi he ngoue, pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻeku u koane, ʻo tuʻu totonu; pea vakai, ko hoʻomou ngaahi u koane naʻa nau tutuʻu hake ʻo takatakai ia, ʻo nau punou ki heʻeku u koane.”
8 Olelo mai la kona poe kaikuaana ia ia, E alii ana ka oe maluna o makou? O oe anei ka haku maluna o makou? Huhu nui aku la lakou ia ia i kana moe, a i kana olelo.
Pea pehē ʻe hono ngaahi taʻokete kiate ia, “He ko e moʻoni te ke pule kiate kimautolu? Pea te ke mālohi kiate kimautolu?” Pea ʻāsili ai ʻenau fehiʻa kiate ia ʻi heʻene misi, mo ʻene ngaahi lea.
9 A mahope aku, moe hou iho la ia i ka moe, a hai hou aku la i kona poe kaikuaana, i aku la, Eia hoi, ua moe hou iho nei au i ka moe; a ua kulou mai ia'u ka la, a me ka mahina, a me na hoku he umikumamakahi.
Pea misi ia ʻae misi ʻe taha, pea ne tala ia ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo u misi ʻae misi ʻe taha, pea vakai, ko e laʻā mo e māhina, mo e fetuʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha, naʻa nau punou kiate au.”
10 Hai aku la ia i kona makuakane, a i kona poe kaikuaana. Papa mai la kona makuakane, i mai la ia ia, Heaha keia moe au i moe ai? E hele anei au iou la, a me kou makuwahine, a me kou poe hoahanau, e kulou ilalo i ka honua imua ou?
Pea ne fakahā ki heʻene tamai, mo hono ngaahi taʻokete: pea valoki ia ʻe heʻene tamai, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae misi ni kuo ke misi ʻaki? Ko e moʻoni ʻe pehē au mo hoʻo faʻē, mo ho ngaahi taʻokete, ke mau punou ʻakimautolu kiate koe, ki he kelekele?”
11 Huahuwa ae la kona poe kaikuaana ia ia, a malama iho la kona makuakane i ua olelo la.
Pea naʻe meheka ʻa hono ngaahi taʻokete kiate ia; ka naʻe tokanga ʻene tamai ki he lea.
12 Hele aku la kona poe kaikuaana i Sekema, e hanai i ka poe holoholona a ka makuakane o lakou.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hono ngaahi taʻokete ki Sikemi, ke fafanga ʻae fanga manu ʻa ʻenau tamai.
13 Olelo aku la o Iseraela ia Iosepa, Aia paha kou poe kaikuaana e hanai holoholona ana ma Sekema? Auhea oe? E hoouna ana au ia oe io lakou la. I mai la kela ia ia, Eia no wau.
Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsileli kia Siosefa, “ʻIkai ʻoku fafanga ʻe ho ngaahi taʻokete ʻae fanga manu ʻi Sikemi?” Haʻu, pea te u fekau koe kiate kinautolu. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
14 I aku la oia ia ia, Ea, o hele oe e ike i ka pono o kou poe kaikuaana, a me ka pono o na holoholona, a e hai mai ia'u. Hoouna aka la oia ia ia, iwaho o ke awawa o Heberona, a hiki aku la ia i Sekema.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu, ʻo vakai pe ʻoku lelei ʻa ho ngaahi taʻokete, pea lelei mo e fanga manu; pea ke haʻu ʻo tala mai.” Pea ne fekau ia mei he teleʻa ʻo Hepeloni ʻo ne hoko ki Sikemi.
15 A loaa ia i kekahi kanaka, aia hoi, ua hele hewa ia i ke kula. Ninau mai la ua kanaka la ia ia, i mai la, Heaha kau mea e imi nei?
Pea naʻe ʻilo ia ʻe he tangata ʻe taha, pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu he pe ia ʻi he fonua; pea fehuʻi ʻae tangata kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kumi?”
16 Olelo aku la ia, E imi ana au i ko'u poe kaikuaana: e hai mai oe ia'u i kahi a lakou e hanai ai i na holoholona.
Pea ne pehē, “ʻOku ou kumi hoku ngaahi taʻokete; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, fakahā kiate au ʻae potu ʻoku nau fafanga ai ʻae fanga manu.”
17 Olelo mai la ia kanaka, Ua hala'ku la lakou: ua lohe au i ka olelo ana a lakou, E, e hele kakou i Dotana. Hahai aku la o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, a loaa aku la lakou Dotana.
Pea pehēange ʻe he tangata, “Kuo nau ō, he naʻaku fanongo ki heʻenau pehē, Tau ō ki Totani.” Pea naʻe muimui ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, pea ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻi Totani.
18 A ike mai la lakou ia ia ma kahi loihi aku, aole ia i lihi koke mai, ohumu iho la lakou ia ia, e make ia.
Pea kuo nau mamata kiate ia, ʻi heʻene kei mamaʻo, ʻi he teʻeki ke ne ofi kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau alea fakataha, ke tāmateʻi ia.
19 Olelo ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi, Eia'e ka mea nana na moe, ke hele mai nei.
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae faʻa misi ni.”
20 Ina kakou e pepehi ia ia a make loa, e hoolei ia ia iloko o kahi lua, a e olelo aku kakou, Na ka ilio hihiu ia i ai; alaila, e ike kakou i ka hope o kana mau moe.
Pea ko ia ke tau tāmateʻi ia pea lī ia ki ha luo, pea te tau pehē, kuo kai ia ʻe ha manu fekai; pea te tau vakai, pe ʻe hoko ʻo fēfē ʻene ngaahi misi.
21 A lohe ae la o Reubena, hoola ae la oia ia ia, mai ko lakou lima ae; i ae la, Mai pepehi kakou ia ia.
Pea fanongo ki ai ʻa Lupeni, ʻo ne fakahaofi ia mei honau nima; ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOua naʻa tau tāmateʻi ia.”
22 Olelo aku la o Reubena ia lakou, Mai hookahe i ke koko; e hoolei ia ia iloko o keia hua o ka aina waonahele. Mai kau i ka lima maluna ona. Manao iho la ia e hoopakele ia ia, mai ko lakou lima ae, a e hoihoi aku ia ia i kona makuakane.
Pea pehē ʻe Lupeni kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa lingi toto, kae lī ia ki he luo ni, ʻoku ʻi he toafa, pea ʻoua naʻa ala ha nima kiate ia;” naʻa ne pehē koeʻuhi ke ne toʻo ia mei honau nima, ke toe ʻatu ia ki heʻene tamai.
23 A hiki aku la o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, hao ae la lakou i ko Iosepa kapa, o ke kapa onionio maluna ona;
Pea kuo hoko atu ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, pea pehē, naʻa nau toʻo ʻae kofutuʻa ʻo Siosefa meiate ia, ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule naʻe ʻiate ia;
24 Lalau ae la lakou ia ia, hoolei aku la ia ia iloko o ka lua. Ua kaawale ka lua, aole he wai oloko.
Pea nau ʻave ia ʻo lī ki he luo; pea naʻe maha pe ʻae luo, naʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha vai.
25 A noho iho la lakou e ai i ka ai. Alawa'e la ko lakou maka, ike aku la, aia hoi kekahi poe mamo a Isemaela, e hele mai ana, mai Gileada mai, me ko lakou mau kamelo, ua kaumaha i ka mea ala, a me ka bama, a me ka mura, e lawe hele ana i Aigupita.
Pea nau nofo ki lalo ke kai mā: pea ʻi he hanga hake honau mata ʻo sio, pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae fononga ʻoe kakai ʻIsimeʻeli, naʻe haʻu mei Kiliate, mo e nau fanga kāmeli, naʻe fakaheka ki ai ʻae ngaahi ʻakau namu lelei, mo e pulu mo e pulu nanamu, ko e nau fetuku ia ki ʻIsipite.
26 Olelo aku la o Inda i kona poe hoahanau, Heaha ka maikai, ke pepehi kakou i ko kakou kaikaina, a huna i kona koko?
Pea lea ʻa Siuta, ʻo pehē ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, “Ko e hā hono ʻaonga, ʻo ʻetau tāmateʻi hotau tehina, pea fufū hono toto?
27 Ina kakou e kuai aku ia ia i ka Isemaela; mai kau ko kakou lima maluna ona; no ka mea, o ko kakou kaikaina no ia, a me ko kakou io. A hoolohe mai la kona poe hoahanau ia ia.
Haʻu, ke tau fakatau ia ki he kau ʻIsimeʻeli, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻiate ia hotau nima: he ko hotau tehina ia mo hotau kakano.” Pea loto ki ai ʻa hono ngaahi taʻokete.
28 Hele ae la ua poe kanaka kuai la, no Midiana, huki mai la lakou, a hapai ae la ia Iosepa, mai loko mai o ka lua, a kuai aku la ia ia, i ka Isemaela, i na hapakala, he iwakalua. A lawe ae la lakou ia Iosepa i Aigupita.
Pea ʻalu ʻo ofi ki ai ʻae kakai Mitiani ko e kau fakatau: pea naʻa nau toho hake ʻa Siosefa mei he luo, pea nau fakatau ʻa Siosefa ki he kau ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻaki ʻae konga siliva ʻe uofulu; pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa Siosefa ki ʻIsipite.
29 A hoi mai la o Reubena i ka lua, aia hoi, aole o Iosepa iloko o ka lua: haehae iho la ia i kona kapa.
Pea toe ʻalu ʻa Lupeni ki he luo pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai ʻi he luo ʻa Siosefa pea haehae ʻe ia hono ngaahi kofu.
30 A hoi aku la ia i kona poe hoahanau, i aku la, Aole loa ke keiki; a o wau, ihea la wau e hele ai?
Pea toe haʻu ia ki hono ngaahi tokoua, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ʻikai ʻae tama; pea ko au, te u ʻalu ki fē?”
31 Lawe ae la lakou i ke kapa o Iosepa, pepehi iho la lakou i ke kao keiki, a kupenu iho la i ke kapa i ke koko.
Pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻae kofutuʻa ʻo Siosefa, ʻo nau tāmateʻi ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi, ʻo nau unu ʻae kofutuʻa ʻi he toto:
32 Hoouka aku la lakou i ua kapa onionio la, a hiki i ko lakou makuakane; i aku la, Ua loaa mai keia ia makou: e nana oe, o ke kapa paha o kau keiki, aole paha.
Pea nau fekau ke ʻave ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule ki heʻenau tamai; ʻo nau pehē, “Kuo mau ʻilo ʻae meʻa ni; pea ke vakai, pe ko e kofutuʻa ʻo ho foha pe ʻikai.”
33 Ike mai la kela, i mai la, Oia, o ke kapa no ia o ka'u keiki; ua pau o Iosepa i ka ilio hihiu, oiaio no, ua haehaeia o Iosepa.
Pea ne ʻilo ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e kofutuʻa ia ʻo hoku foha; kuo kai ia ʻe he manu fekai; kuo haehae nai, ʻo fakaikiiki ʻa Siosefa.”
34 Haehae iho la o Iseraela i kona kapa, kaei ae la i ke kapa inoino ma kona puhaka, a kanikau iho la ia i kana keiki a nui na la.
Pea haehae ʻe Sēkope hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne ai ʻae tauangaʻa, pea ne tēngihia hono foha ʻo ʻaho lahi.
35 Ku mai la kana mau keikikane a pau, a me kana mau kaikamahine a pau, e hoonana ia ia. Hoole aku la kela, aole e na: i aku la, E kanikau no au, a hiki au ilalo i ka lua i kuu keiki la. Pela i uwe ai kona makuakane ia ia. (Sheol h7585)
Pea tuʻu hake hono ngaahi foha mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine ke nau fakafiemālieʻi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai te ne tali ʻae fakafiemālie; pea ne pehē, “He te u ʻalu hifo tangi pe ki he faʻitoka ki hoku foha.” Naʻe pehē ʻae tangi ʻa ʻene tamai koeʻuhi ko ia. (Sheol h7585)
36 A kuai aku la ko Midiana ia ia i Aigupita, ia Potipara, he luna na Parao, oia ka luna o ka poe koa.
Pea naʻe fakatau ia ʻe he kakai Mitiani ki ʻIsipite, kia Potifa, ko e matāpule ʻa Felo, ko e pule ʻoe kau leʻo.
