< Zekaria 3 >

1 A HOIKE mai la oia ia'u ia Iosua ke kahuna nui e ku ana imua o ka anela o Iehova, a ku mai la o Satana ma kona lima akau, e ku e ia ia.
Pea naʻa ne fakahā kiate au ʻa Siosiua, ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova; pea tuʻu ʻa hono fili ko Sētane ʻi hono potu toʻomataʻu, ko hono tukuakiʻi.
2 I aku la o Iehova ia Satana, Na Iehova oe e papa aku, e Satana; na Iehova nana i koho o Ierusalema, e papa aku ia oe: aole anei keia he momokuahi i unuhiia'e mailoko mai o ke ahi?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻa Sihova kia Sētane, “ʻE Sētane ke valokiʻi koe ʻe Sihova, ʻio, ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo ne fili ʻa Selūsalema, ke ne valokiʻi koe! ʻIkai ko e potupotuʻi afi eni, kuo hamusi mai mei he afi?”
3 A ua aahuia o Iosua i na kapa inoino, ia ia i ku ai imua o ka anela.
Ka ko eni, naʻe kofuʻaki ʻa Siosiua ʻae ngaahi kofu fakalielia, ʻi heʻene tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻāngelo.
4 Olelo mai la kela, i mai la i ka poe e ku ana imua ona, penei, E lawe aku i na kapa inoino mai ona aku la. I mai la hoi oia ia ia, Aia hoi, ke lawe aku nei au i kou hewa mai ou aku la, a e hoaahu aku au ia oe i na aahu nani.
Pea naʻe lea ia kiate kinautolu naʻe tutuʻu ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo pehē, “Vete meiate ia ʻae ngaahi kofu fakalielia;” pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo u pule ke mole atu meiate koe ʻa hoʻo ngaahi hia, pea te u totongi mo fakakofuʻaki koe ʻae kofu foʻou.”
5 Alaila i aku la au, E kau aku lakou i papale kahuna maikai maluna o kona poo. Nolaila, kau aku la lakou i ka papale kahuna maikai maluna o kona poo, a hoaahu aku la ia ia i na aahu; a ku mai la ka anela o Iehova.
Pea ne u pehē, “Tuku ke nau ʻai ki hono ʻulu ʻae pale fakasanisani; pea ko ia naʻa nau ʻai ha pale fakasanisani ki hono ʻulu, pea naʻe ʻai mo e ngaahi kofu kiate ia. Pea naʻe tuʻu ofi ai ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova.
6 Alaila, ao mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Iosua, i ka i ana,
Pea naʻe fakapapau mai ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē,
7 Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo mai ai, Ina e hele oe ma kuu mau aoao, a e malama hoi i ka'u mau kauoha ia oe, alaila oe e alii ai maluna o ko'u hale, a e malama hoi i na pahale o'u, a e haawi hoi au nou i na wahi e hele ai iwaena o ka poe e ku nei.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “Kapau te ke ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku ngaahi hala, pea kapau te ke fai ki heʻeku fekau, pehē, te ke toki fakamaau foki ʻi hoku fale, pea te ke tauhi foki ʻa hoku ngaahi lotoʻā, pea te u vaheʻi ha ngaahi potu ke ke ʻeveʻeva fakataha ai mo kinautolu ʻoku tau tutuʻu ai ni.
8 Ano hoi, e hoolohe mai oe, e Iosua ke kahuna nui e, o oe a me na hoaaloha e noho ana imua ou; no ka mea, he poe kanaka mea hoailona lakou: no ka mea, aia hoi, e kai mai auanei au i kuu kauwa o ka LALA.
Fanongo eni, ʻE Siosiua ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻaa koe, mo hoʻo kaunga ngāue ʻoku nofo ʻi ho ʻao: he ko e kau tangata ʻoku fai ki ai ʻae ofo; he vakai, te u fakahā ʻeau ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko e VAA.
9 Aia hoi ka pohaku a'u i waiho ai imua o Iosua; a he ahiku na maka ma ua Pohaku hookahi la; a na'u no e kalai iho i kana kalaiia'na, wahi a Iehova o na kana, a e lawe aku au i ka hala o ia aina i ka la hookahi.
Koeʻuhi, vakai ki he maka ʻaia kuo u ʻai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Siosiua; ʻe ʻi he maka ʻe taha ʻae mata ʻe fitu; vakai te u tongi ʻeau ʻae tongi ʻe fai ki ai, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ‘pea te u ʻave ʻae angahala ʻae fonua ko ia ʻi he ʻaho pe taha.’
10 Ia la la, e kahea aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoalauna, malalo o ke kumuwaina, a malalo o ka laau fiku, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ‘ko e ʻaho ko ia ʻe feuiʻaki ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono kaungāʻapi ʻi he lolo vaine mo e lolo fiki.’”
