1 Na ka tu a Hatana hei hoariri mo Iharaira, a ka whakakiki a Rawiri ki te tatau i a Iharaira.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Sētane ke fakakoviʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne fakalotoʻi ʻa Tevita ke ne lau hono tokolahi ʻo ʻIsileli.
2 Na ka ki a Rawiri ki a Ioapa ratou ko nga rangatira o te iwi, Tikina taua a Iharaira, o Peerehepa atu a tae noa ki Rana, ka kawe mai ai i to ratou tokomaha ki ahau, kia mohio ai ahau.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Soape, pea ki he ngaahi ʻeiki pule ki he kakai, Mou ʻalu ʻo lau hake ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo fai mei Peasipa ʻo aʻu atu ki Tani, pea ʻomi kiate au ʻa hono lau, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo ai.
3 Ano ra ko Ioapa, Ma Ihowa e mea tana iwi kia rau noa atu i a ratou e noho nei, otiia, e toku ariki, e te kingi, ehara ianei ratou katoa i te pononga na toku ariki? He aha ra tenei i whaia ai e toku ariki? he aha i waiho ai hei take he mo Iharaira?
Pea naʻe tali ange ʻe Soape, Ke ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻa hono kakai ke nau liunga teau hake ʻakinautolu ʻi honau tokolahi ko eni: ka ko eni, “ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻikai ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻa hoku ʻeiki?” Pea ka kuo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻa hono ʻuhinga ʻoe fie fai ʻae meʻa ni ʻe hoku ʻeiki? Ko e hā ʻoku ne fie hoko ai ko e fakahala ki ʻIsileli?”
4 Otiia kaha tonu ta te kingi kupu i ta Ioapa. Heoi ka turia atu e Ioapa, haereerea ana e ia a Iharaira katoa; kua tae ki Hiruharama.
Ka neongo ia naʻe mālohi hake kia Soape ʻae folofola ʻae tuʻi. Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Soape, mo ne ʻosiki ʻae potu kotoa pē ʻi ʻIsileli, mo ne haʻu ki Selūsalema.
5 Na ka homai e Ioapa te tokomaha o te iwi i taua ki a Rawiri. Na a Iharaira katoa, he mano nga mano me nga mano kotahi rau, he hunga unu hoari; na a Hura, e wha rau e whitu tekau mano nga tangata unu hoari.
Pea naʻe ʻange ʻe Soape ʻae lau ʻa hono toko fiha ʻoe kakai kia Tevita. Pea ko e kātoa ʻo ʻIsileli ko e kau tangata naʻe toʻo heletā, ko e tokotaha miliona mo e tokotaha kilu: pea ko e kakai ʻi Siuta naʻe toʻo heletā naʻe toko fā kilu mo e toko fitu mano.
6 Ko Riwai ia raua ko Pineamine, kihai i taua e ia i roto i a ratou; he mea whakarihariha hoki ki a Ioapa te kupu a te kingi.
Ka naʻe ʻikai ke lau ai ʻakinautolu ʻo Livai pe ko Penisimani: he naʻe kovi lahi ʻaupito kia Soape ʻae lea ʻae tuʻi.
7 Na ka riri te Atua ki tenei mea; a patua ana a Iharaira e ia.
Pea naʻe houhau ʻae ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni; pea ko ia naʻa ne teʻia ai ʻa ʻIsileli.
8 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki te Atua, Nui atu toku hara i ahau i mea i tenei mea: na, tena, kia whakarerea noatia iho te he o tau pononga, nui atu hoki toku kuware.
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua, “Kuo u fai angahala ʻo lahi, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku fai ʻae meʻa ni: ka ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke hiki atu ʻae angahala ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki; he kuo u fai vale ʻaupito.”
9 Na ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki ta Rawiri matakite, ki a Kara; i ki ia,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Kata ko e tangata kikite ʻo Tevita, ʻo pehē,
10 Haere, ki atu ki a Rawiri, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E toru enei mea ka whakaaria atu nei e ahau ki a koe, whiriwhiria tetahi o enei mau, a ka meatia e ahau ki a koe.
“Ke ke ʻalu ʻo tala kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻOku ou tuku atu ʻae meʻa ko eni ʻe tolu, pea ke fili ʻe koe ha taha ʻi ai, koeʻuhi ke u fai ia kiate koe.
11 Heoi, ko te taenga o Kara ki a Rawiri, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Whiriwhiria mau,
Ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ʻa Kata kia Tevita, mo ne pehē kiate ia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Ke ke fili ʻe koe:
12 Kia toru ranei nga tau matekai; kia toru ranei nga marama e whakangaromia ai koe i te aroaro o ou hoariri, me te hoari a ou hoa whawhai e hopu ana i a koe? kia toru ranei nga ra o te hoari a Ihowa, ara o te mate uruta ki te whenua, me te anahera a Ihowa e whakangaro ana, i nga rohe katoa o Iharaira. Na whakaaroa te kupu e whakahokia e ahau ki toku kaitono mai.
‌ʻAe honge ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu; pe ko e tautea koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo ho ngaahi fili ʻi ha māhina ʻe tolu, lolotonga ʻae hoko kiate koe ʻae heletā ʻo ho ngaahi fili; pe ko e ʻaho ʻe tolu ʻoe heletā ʻo Sihova, ʻio, ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha ʻi he fonua, mo e fai ʻae fakaʻauha ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi potu fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli. Ko ia foki ke ke fakakaukau ʻe koe pe ko e hā ʻae lea te u toe ʻave kiate ia naʻa ne fekauʻi au.”
13 Ano ra ko Rawiri ki a Kara, He noa iho oku whakaaro; na kia taka ahau ki te ringa o Ihowa, he nui hoki ana mahi aroha; kaua hoki ahau e taka ki te ringa tangata.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Kata, “ʻOku ou ʻefihia ʻaupito au tuku pe ke u hinga ki he nima ʻo Sihova he ʻoku lahi ʻaupito ʻa ʻene ngaahi ʻaloʻofa kaeʻoua naʻa tuku ke u tō ki he nima ʻoe tangata.”
14 Heoi whakapangia ana e Ihowa he mate uruta ki a Iharaira: a hinga iho o Iharaira e whitu tekau mano tangata.
Ko ia naʻe tuku ai ʻe Sihova ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha ki ʻIsileli: pea naʻe mate ʻoe kakai ʻIsileli ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitu mano.
15 I tonoa ano e te Atua he anahera ki Hiruharama whakangaro ai; a ia a ia e mea ana ki te whakangaro, ka titiro a Ihowa, na ka puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo te kino, a ka mea ki te anahera whakangaro, Kua nui: kati tou ringa. Na tu ana te anahera a Ihowa i te patunga witi a Oronana Iepuhi.
Pea naʻe fekau atu ha ʻāngelo ʻe he ʻOtua ki Selūsalema, ke ne fakaʻauha ia; pea lolotonga ʻa ʻene fai ʻae fakaʻauha, naʻe vakai ʻe Sihova, pea naʻa ne liliu mei he kovi, mo ne pehē ki he ʻāngelo naʻe fai ʻae fakaʻauha, “Maʻu ʻā, kuo lahi, pea taʻofi eni ho nima.” Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻi he veʻe matapā ʻoe hahaʻanga uite ʻo Olinani ko e tangata Sepusi.
16 Na ka ara nga kanohi o Rawiri, ka kite i te anahera a Ihowa e tu ana i te takiwa o te whenua, o te rangi, me tana hoari, unu rawa, i tona ringa, e totoro ana ki runga i Hiruharama. Katahi ka tapapa a Rawiri ratou ko nga kaumatua, he kakahu tarat ara te hipoki.
Pea naʻe hanga hake ʻe Tevita ʻa hono mata, pea naʻa ne mamata ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻoku ne tuʻu ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo māmani pea mo e langi, kuo toʻo ʻi hono nima ʻae heletā naʻe tuʻu tonu atu ki Selūsalema. Pea naʻe tō hifo ai ki honau mata ʻa Tevita mo e kau mātuʻa, kuo nau kofuʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa.
17 Ka mea a Rawiri ki te Atua, He teka ianei naku i ki kia taua te iwi? Ko ahau tenei te mea i hara, i mahi nei i te he; ko enei hipi ia, i aha ratou? E Ihowa, e toku Atua, kia pa ra tou ringa ki ahau, ki te whare ano o toku papa; kauaka ia ki tau iwi, hei whiu mo ratou.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ki he ʻOtua, “ʻIkai ko au ia naʻe fekau ke lau hake ʻae kakai? ʻIo, ko au pe ia kuo u angahala mo fai ʻae kovi moʻoni; ka ko e fanga sipi ko ʻena, ko e hā kuo fai ʻekinautolu? ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuku ho nima ke hoko kiate au, pea ki he fale ʻo ʻeku tamai; kaeʻoua naʻa ʻi hoʻo kakai ia, ke nau mamahi ai.”
18 Katahi ka korero te anahera a Ihowa ki a Kara kia mea ia ki a Rawiri, kia haere a Rawiri ki runga, ki te whakaara i tetahi aata ki a Ihowa ki te patunga witi a Oronana Iepuhi.
Pea naʻe toki fekau ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova kia Kata ke ne lea kia Tevita ʻo pehē, ke ʻalu hake ʻa Tevita mo ne fokotuʻu ha feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova, ʻi he potu hahaʻanga uite ʻo Olinani ko e tangata Sepusi.
19 Na haere ana a Rawiri i ta Kara korero i korero ai ia i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Tevita ʻi he lea ʻa Kata ʻaia naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova.
20 Na ka tahuri ake a Oronana, ka kite i te anahera; a piri ana ia, ratou ko ana tama tokowha. Na i te patu witi a Oronana.
Pea ʻi heʻene tafoki ʻa Olinani, mo ne mamata ki he ʻāngelo, naʻa ne fakafufū ia pea mo hono ngaahi foha ʻe toko fā. Pea ko e lolotonga eni ʻae haha ʻae uite ʻe Olinani,
21 Na, i a Rawiri e haere ana ki a Oronana, ka titiro a Oronana a ka kite i a Rawiri, na puta ana ia i te patunga witi, piko ana ki a Rawiri, tapapa ana ki te whenua.
Mo ʻene hāʻeleange ʻa Tevita kia Olinani, naʻe sio atu ʻa Olinani ʻo ne mamata kia Tevita, pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu mei he hahaʻanga uite, mo ne tuʻulutui kia Tevita ʻaki ʻa hono mata ki he kelekele.
22 Katahi ka mea a Rawiri ki a Oronana, Homai ki ahau te wahi i tenei patunga witi, kia hanga ai e ahau he aata ki a Ihowa; kia tino rite te utu ka homai ai e koe ki ahau, kia mutu ai te whiunga o te iwi.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Tevita kia Olinani, “Foaki mai ʻae potu hahaʻanga uite, koeʻuhi ke u langa ai ha feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova: te ke tuku mai ia ʻi ha totongi totonu ki ai: kaekehe ke taʻofi ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha mei he kakai.”
23 Na ka mea a Oronana ki a Rawiri, Me tango mau, a ma toku ariki, ma te kingi e mea te mea e pai ana ki tana titiro; nana, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe nga kau hei tahunga tinana, me nga patu witi hei wahie, me te witi ano hei whakahere totokore; ka h oatu katoa e ahau.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Olinani kia Tevita, “Ke ke maʻu ia moʻou, pea ke fai ʻe hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻae meʻa ʻoku lelei ʻi hono fofonga ʻoʻona: vakai foki, ʻoku ou foaki ʻae fanga pulu ke ʻatu ko e feilaulau tutu, mo e nāunau ʻoe haha uite ke fefie ʻaki, pea mo e uite ke ʻatu ko e feilaulau meʻakai; ʻoku ou ʻatu ia kotoa pē.”
24 Na ka mea a Kingi Rawiri ki a Oronana, Kahore; engari ka hokona e ahau kia rite ano nga utu: e kore hoki ahau e tango i tau ma Ihowa, e kore hoki e whakaeke i nga mea kihai i utua hei tahunga tinana.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ko Tevita kia Olinani, “ʻIkai; ka te u fakatau moʻoni ia meiate koe ʻaki ʻa hono totongi totonu: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te u toʻo mai ʻae meʻa ʻaʻau maʻa Sihova, pe ʻatu taʻetotongi ha ngaahi feilaulau tutu.”
25 Heoi e ono rau nga hekere koura, he mea pauna, i hoatu e Rawiri ki a Oronana mo taua wahi.
Ko ia hono ʻange ʻe Tevita kia Olinani ke totongi ki he potu ko ia ʻae sikeli koula ʻe onongeau naʻe fakamamafa.
26 A hanga ana e Rawiri he aata ki reira ma Ihowa, whakaekea ana he tahunga tinana, he whakahere mo te pai, a karanga ana ki a Ihowa. Na ka whakahokia tana i te rangi, he ahi ki runga ki te aata tahunga tinana.
Pea naʻe langa ʻi ai ʻe Tevita ha feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova, mo ne ʻatu ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakamelino, mo ne ui ai kia Sihova; pea naʻa ne tali ia mei he langi ʻaki ʻae afi naʻe [tō ]ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻoe feilaulau tutu.
27 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki te anahera, a whakahokia ana e ia tana hoari ki tona takotoranga.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki he ʻāngelo; pea naʻa ne toe ʻai ʻa ʻene heletā ki hono ʻaiʻanga.
28 I taua wa ano, i te kitenga o Rawiri kua whakarongo a Ihowa ki a ia i te patunga witi a Oronana Iephui, ka mea patunga tapu ia ki reira.
Pea ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻi he mamata ʻa Tevita kuo tali ʻe Sihova kiate ia ʻi he hahaʻanga uite ʻo Olinani ko e tangata Sepusi, naʻa ne toki fai feilaulau ʻi he potu ko ia.
29 Ko te tapenakara hoki o Ihowa i hanga nei e Mohi ki te koraha, me te aata tahunga tinana, i te wahi tiketike i Kipeono i taua wa.
He ko e fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Mōsese ʻi he toafa, pea mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻae feilaulau tutu, naʻe nofo ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻi he potu māʻolunga ʻi Kipione.
30 Kihai ia a Rawiri i ahei te haere ki mua o taua aata ki te rapu i ta te Atua; i wehi hoki ia i te hoari a te anahera a Ihowa.
Ka naʻe ʻikai faʻa ʻalu ʻa Tevita ki ai ke fehuʻi ki he ʻOtua: he naʻa ne manavahē koeʻuhi ko e heletā ʻoe ʻāngelo ʻo Sihova.
