< 1 Kingi 18 >

1 A, ka maha nga ra, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Iraia i te toru o nga tau; i mea ia, Haere whakakitea atu koe ki a Ahapa; a maku e hoatu he ua ki te whenua.
Pea ʻi heʻene hili ange ʻae ngaahi ʻaho lahi, naʻe hoko ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻIlaisiā ʻi hono tolu ʻoe taʻu, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻo fakahā atu koe kia ʻEhapi; pea te u fakatō hifo ʻae ʻuha ki he fonua.”
2 Na haere ana a Iraia ki te whakakite i a ia ki a Ahapa. Nui atu hoki te matekai o Hamaria.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻIlaisiā ke fakahā ia kia ʻEhapi. Pea naʻe lahi ʻae honge ʻi Samēlia.
3 Na ka karanga a Ahapa ki a Oparia, kaitohutohu o tona whare. Na he nui te wehi o Oparia ki a Ihowa;
Pea naʻe ui ʻe ʻEhapi kia ʻOpataia, ʻaia naʻe pule ʻi hono fale: (ka ko eni, naʻe manavahē lahi ʻa ʻOpataia kia Sihova:
4 A i ta Ietepere hautopenga atu i nga poropiti a Ihowa, na ka mau a Oparia ki nga poropiti kotahi rau, a huna ana e ia, takirima tekau nga tangata ki te ana kotahi, a whangainga ana ratou e ia ki te taro, ki te wai.
He naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene tāmateʻi ʻe Sisipeli ʻae kau palōfita ʻa Sihova, naʻe ʻave ʻae kau palōfita ʻe toko teau ʻe ʻOpataia, ʻo ne fakafufū ʻakinautolu ko e taki nimangofulu ʻi ha ʻana, mo ne fafanga kinautolu ʻaki ʻae mā pea mo e vai.)
5 Na ka mea a Ahapa ki a Oparia, Haere puta noa i te whenua ki nga puna wai katoa; ki nga awa katoa; tera pea ka kitea e tatou tetahi tarutaru e ora ai nga hoiho me nga muera; kei poto katoa a tatou kararehe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEhapi kia ʻOpataia, “Ke ke ʻalu atu ki he fonua, ki he ngaahi matavai kotoa pē, pea ki he ngaahi vaitafe kotoa pē: heiʻilo te tau maʻu ai ha mohuku ke fakamoʻui ʻaki ʻae fanga hoosi mo e fanga miuli, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mole ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē.”
6 Heoi ka wehea e raua te whenua hei haerenga mo raua: haere ana a Ahapa, tona kotahi i tetahi ara, haere ana a Oparia, tona kotahi i tetahi ara.
Ko ia naʻa na vaheua ʻae fonua ʻiate kinaua ke ʻosiki ia ʻi heʻena ʻalu ai: naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻEhapi ʻi hono hala ʻoʻona, pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻOpataia ʻi hono hala kehe ʻoʻona.
7 A, i a Oparia i te ara, na ko Iraia kua tutaki ki a ia; a ka mohio ia ki tera, ka tapapa, ka mea, Ko koe ranei tena, e toku Ariki, e Iraia?
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu ʻa ʻOpataia ʻi he hala, vakai, naʻe fakafetaulaki mai ʻa ʻIlaisiā kiate ia: pea naʻa ne ʻiloʻi ia, ʻo ne tō hifo ki hono mata, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko koe ʻapē ko hoku ʻeiki ko ʻIlaisiā?
8 Ano ra ko ia ki a ia, Ko ahau ra; haere, korero atu ki tou ariki, Ko Iraia tenei.
Pea naʻa ne pehēange kiate ia, “Ko au ʻalu ʻo tala ki hoʻo ʻeiki, Vakai, ko ʻIlaisiā eni.”
9 Na ka mea tera, He aha ra toku hara i hoatu ai tau pononga ki te ringa o Ahapa kia whakamatea?
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻa ʻeku fai hala, ke ke tukuange ai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki he nima ʻo ʻEhapi ke tāmateʻi au?
10 E ora ana a Ihowa, tou Atua, kahore he iwi, ke kingitanga, i kore nei toku ariki e tono tangata ki reira ki te rapu i a koe: a, i ta ratou meatanga mai, Kahore nei; whakaoatitia iho e ia taua kingitanga, taua iwi ranei, me kahore ratou i kite i a koe.
Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻikai ha fonua pe ha puleʻanga kuo ʻikai fekau atu ki ai ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki ko hoʻo kumi: pea ʻi he ʻenau pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ʻi heni ia; naʻa ne maʻu ha fuakava mei he fonua mo e puleʻanga, ʻo pehē, naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo koe.
11 Na kua mea na koe inaianei, Haere, korero atu ki tou ariki, Ko Iraia tenei.
Ka kuo ke pehē ʻeni, ‘ʻAlu, ʻo tala ki hoʻo ʻeiki, Ko ʻIlaisiā eni.’
12 Na akuanei, kei toku mawehenga atu i a koe, ka kahakina atu koe e te wairua o Ihowa ki te wahi e kore ai ahau e mohio; a, i toku taenga atu ki te whakaatu ki a Ahapa, a ka kore ia e kite i a koe, katahi ahau ka patua e ia: heoi e wehi ana tau po nonga i a Ihowa, no toku tamarikitanga ake.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kau ka ʻalu leva meiate koe, ʻe ʻave koe ʻe he Laumālie ʻo Sihova ki ha potu ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi; pea ʻi heʻeku fakahā kia ʻEhapi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke ne ʻilo koe, te ne tāmateʻi au: ka ʻoku manavahē ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au kia Sihova talu mei heʻeku kei siʻi.
13 Kahore ianei i korerotia ki toku ariki taku i mea ai i ta Ietepere patunga i nga poropiti a Ihowa, taku hunanga i nga poropiti kotahi rau a Ihowa, takirima tekau nga tangata ki roto i te ana kotahi, a whangainga ana e ahau ki te taro, ki te wai?
‌ʻIkai kuo fakahā ki heʻeku ʻeiki ʻaia naʻaku fai ʻi heʻene tāmateʻi ʻe Sisipeli ʻae kau palōfita ʻa Sihova, ʻa ʻeku fufū ha toko teau ʻoe kau palōfita ʻa Sihova ʻo taki nimangofulu ʻi ha ʻana, mo fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mā mo e vai?
14 A ka mea mai na koe inaianei, Haere, korero atu ki tou ariki, Ko Iraia tenei: ka patua hoki ahau e ia.
Pea ʻoku ke pehē mai ni, ‘ʻAlu, ʻo tala ki hoʻo ʻeiki, Vakai, ko ʻIlaisiā eni: pea te ne tāmateʻi au.’”
15 Ano ra ko Iraia ki a ia, E ora ana a Ihowa o nga mano e tu nei ahau i tona aroaro, ko a tenei ra pu ahau puta ai ki a ia.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi, ʻaia ʻoku ou tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao, pea ko e moʻoni te u fakahā au kiate ia he ʻaho ni.”
16 Heoi haere ana a Oparia ki te whakatau i a Ahapa, a korerotia ana ki a ia. Na haere ana a Ahapa ki te whakatau i a Iraia.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa ʻOpataia ke fetaulaki mo ʻEhapi, ʻo ne tala ki ai: pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻEhapi ke fakafetaulaki atu kia ʻIlaisiā.
17 A, no te kitenga o Ahapa i a Iraia, na ka mea a Ahapa ki a ia, Ko koe tenei, e te kaiwhakararuraru o Iharaira?
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ʻa ʻEhapi kia ʻIlaisiā, naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEhapi kiate ia, “Ko koe ia koā kuo fakamamahi ai ʻa ʻIsileli?”
18 Ano ra ko ia, Kahore i whakararurarutia e ahau a Iharaira; engari koe me te whare o tou papa i ta koutou whakarerenga nei i nga whakahau a Ihowa, i a koe ka whai nei i nga Paara.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “Kuo ʻikai te u fakamamahiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli; ka ko koe, mo e fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou liʻaki ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova, pea kuo ke muimui kia Peali.”
19 Na tikina aianei, huihuia mai a Iharaira katoa ki ahau ki Maunga Karamere, me nga poropiti e wha rau e rima tekau a Paara, me nga poropiti e wha rau o te Ahera, e kai na ki te tepu a Ietepere.
Pea ko eni fekau atu, “Ke tānaki mai kiate au ʻi Kameli ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa, pea mo e kau kikite ʻo Peali ko e toko fāngeau mo e toko nimangofulu, pea mo e kau kikite ʻoe ngaahi vao tapu ko e toko fāngeau, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kai ʻi he keinangaʻanga ʻo Sisipeli.”
20 Heoi tono tangata ana a Ahapa puta noa i nga tama katoa a Iharaira, a whakaminea ana aua poropiti ki Maunga Karamere.
Ko ia naʻe fekau atu ʻe ʻEhapi ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻa ne fakataha mai ʻae kau kikite kotoa pē ki he moʻunga ko Kameli.
21 Na ka whakatata a Iraia ki te iwi katoa, ka mea, Kia pehea te roa o to koutou tuhurihuri ki nga tikanga e rua? ki te mea ko Ihowa te Atua, me whai ki a ia; ki te mea ia ko Paara, me whai ki a ia. Na kahore he kupu i whakahokia e te iwi ki a ia.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻIlaisiā ki he kakai kotoa pē, mo ne pehē, “ʻE fēfē ʻa hono fuoloa ʻo hoʻomou lotolotoua? Kapau ko e ʻOtua ʻa Sihova, mou muimui kiate ia: pea kapau ko Peali, muimui kiate ia.” Pea naʻe ʻikai toe lea ʻaki mai ʻe he kakai ha momoʻi lea ʻe taha.
22 Katahi ka mea a Iraia ki te iwi, Ko ahau anake kua mahue nei o nga poropiti a Ihowa; e wha rau ia e rima tekau tangata nga poropiti a Paara.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā ki he kakai, “Ko au tokotaha pe ʻoku toe ko e palōfita ʻa Sihova; ka ko e kau kikite ʻa Peali ko e kau tangata ʻe toko fāngeau mo e nimangofulu.
23 Na me homai e ratou etahi puru ma matou, kia rua, ma ratou e whiriwhiri tetahi puru ma ratou, ka tapatapahi ai, ka whakaeke ai ki runga ki nga wahie, kaua hoki he ahi e meatia atu: maku hoki e taka tetahi puru, e whakatakoto ki runga ki nga wahi e; e kore hoki e meatia atu he ahi.
Ko ia tuku ke nau ʻomi kiate kitautolu ha fanga pulu ʻe ua; pea tuku ke nau fili ha pulu ʻe taha maʻanautolu, pea tafatafaʻi ia pea hili ia ki he fefie, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻai ha afi ki lalo: pea te u teuteuʻi ʻeau ʻae pulu ʻe taha, pea hili ia ki ha fefie, kae ʻikai ha afi ki ai
24 A ma koutou e karanga ki te ingoa o to koutou atua; maku hoki e karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa. Na, ko te Atua e utua ai te karanga ki te ahi, ko ia hei Atua. Na ka whakahoki te iwi katoa, ka mea, Ka pai tena kupu.
Pea mou ui kimoutolu ki he hingoa ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi ʻotua, pea teu ui au ki he huafa ʻo Sihova: pea ko e ʻOtua ko ia ʻoku tali ʻaki ha afi, ko e ʻOtua pe ia.” Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku lelei ʻae lea.”
25 Na ka mea a Iraia ki nga poropiti a Paara, Whiriwhiria tetahi puru ma koutou, taka; ko ta koutou ki mua, he tokomaha hoki koutou; ka karanga ai ki te ingoa o to koutou atua; kaua hoki he ahi e meatia atu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā ki he kau kikite ʻa Peali, “Mou fili ha pulu maʻamoutolu, pea tomuʻa teuteu ia; he ʻoku mou tokolahi; pea mou ui ki he hingoa ʻo homou ngaahi ʻotua, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻai ha afi ki ai.”
26 Na ka tango ratou i te puru i hoatu ki a ratou, a mahia ana e ratou. Na ka karanga ki te ingoa o Paara o te ata iho ano a taea noatia te poutumarotanga; i mea ai, E Paara, utua mai ta matou karanga. Otiia kahore he kupu, kihai hoki i utua e teta hi. A tupekepeke ana ratou i te aata i hanga nei.
Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻae pulu naʻe ʻange kiate kinautolu ʻonau teuteuʻi, mo nau ui ki he hingoa ʻo Peali mei he pongipongi ʻo aʻu ki heʻene hoʻatāmālie, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Peali, fanongo mai kiate kimautolu.” Ka naʻe ʻikai ha leʻo, pe ha taha ʻe lea mai. Pea naʻa nau fehōpoaki ʻi he ʻesifeilaulau naʻe ngaohi.
27 A, i te poutumarotanga, ka tawai a Iraia ki a ratou, ka mea, Karanga, kia nui te reo; he atua hoki ia: kei te purakau pea ia, kei tahaki ranei, kei te ara ranei, tena ranei kei te moe, a me whakaara.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki he hoʻatāmālie, naʻe manuki ʻe ʻIlaisiā kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “Kalangaʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi: he ko e ʻotua; naʻa ʻoku ne fakalaulauloto, pe ʻoku ne ʻi ha potu kehe, pe kuo ne fai haʻane fononga, pe naʻa ʻoku ne mohe, kae ʻaonga ʻa hono fakaʻāʻi.”
28 Na nui atu to ratou reo ki te karanga, ka haehae i a ratou ki te maripi, ki te oka, ko ta ratou tikanga hoki ia, a tarere noa nga toto ki runga ki a ratou.
Pea naʻa nau kalanga mālohi, mo tafatafaʻi kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻenau anga, ʻaki ʻae hele mo e ngaahi meʻa kini, kae puna mai ʻae toto kiate kinautolu.
29 Heoi kua tawharara te ra, na ka poropiti ratou a tae noa ki te whakaekenga o to te ahiahi whakahere; otiia kahore he reo, kihai i utua te karanga, kahore tetahi hei whakarongo.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pale ʻae laʻā, mo nau kikite ai pe ʻo aʻu ki he feituʻulaʻā ʻoe feilaulau efiafi, naʻe ʻikai ha leʻo, pe ha taha ke lea, pe ha taha ke tokangaʻi.
30 Na ka mea a Iraia ki te iwi katoa, Neke mai ki ahau. Na neke ana te iwi katoa ki a ia, Na ka whakatikaia e ia te aata a Ihowa i turakina.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Mou ʻunuʻunu mai kiate au.” Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai kiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē. Pea naʻa ne teuteu foʻou ʻae ʻesifeilaulau ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe maumau hifo.
31 I mau hoki a Iraia ki nga kohatu kotahi tekau ma rua; rite tonu te maha ki nga iwi o nga tama a Hakopa, ki a ia nei te kupu a Ihowa, i ki nei, Ko Iharaira hei ingoa mou.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe ʻIlaisiā ʻae foʻi maka ʻe hongofulu ma ua, ʻo fakatatau mo e fiha ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Sēkope, ʻaia naʻe hoko mai ki ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fakahingoa, koe ko ʻIsileli:”
32 Na hanga ana e ia aua kohatu hei aata mo te ingoa o Ihowa; a keria ana he awa ki te taha o te aata a taka noa, kia rua nga mehua purapura ka ki.
Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi maka ha feilaulauʻanga ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova: pea naʻa ne ngaohi ha luo naʻe keli takatakai ʻi he feilaulauʻanga, naʻe tatau ʻa hono lahi mo e fonu ʻoe fuaʻanga ʻe ua ʻoe tengaʻi ʻakau.
33 Na whakapaia ana e ia nga wahie, a tapatapahia ana te puru, whakatakotoria ana ki runga ki nga wahie. A ka mea ia, Whakakiia etahi oko, kia wha, ki te wai, ka riringi ki runga ki te tahunga tinana, ki nga wahie.
Pea naʻa ne fakatokalelei ʻae fefie, mo ne tafatafaʻi ʻae pulu, ʻo ne hili ia ki he fefie, mo ne pehē, “Fakafonu mai ha puha ʻe fā ʻaki ʻae vai, pea lilingi ia ki he feilaulau tutu, pea ki he fefie.”
34 I mea ano ia, Tena ano. Na ka meatia ano e ratou. I mea hoki ia, Tuatorutia. Na ka tuatorutia e ratou.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Toe fai ia ke liunga ua.” Pea naʻa nau fai ia ko hono liunga ua. Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Fai ia ko hono liunga tolu. Pea naʻa nau fai ia ko hono liunga tolu.”
35 Na ka rere te wai i nga taha o te aata tawhio noa: whakakiia ana hoki e ia te waikeri ki te wai.
Pea naʻe tafe takatakai ʻae vai ʻi he feilaulauʻanga; pea naʻa ne fakafonu foki ʻae luo ʻaki ʻae vai.
36 Na i te whakaekenga o to te ahiahi whakahere, ka whakatata a Iraia poropiti, a ka mea, E Ihowa, e te Atua o Aperahama, o Ihaka, o Iharaira, kia mohiotia i tenei ra ko koe te Atua i roto i a Iharaira, ko ahau tau pononga, a nau te kupu i mea ai a hau i enei mea katoa.
Pea ʻi heʻene hokosia ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻoe feilaulau fakaefiafi, naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻa ʻIlaisiā ko e palōfita, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo e ʻaho ni ko e ʻOtua koe ʻi ʻIsileli, pea ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki au, pea mo ʻeku fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ʻi hoʻo fekau.
37 Whakarongo mai ki ahau, e Ihowa, whakarongo mai ki ahau, kia mohio ai tenei iwi ko te Atua koe, e Ihowa, nau ano i whakahoki o ratou ngakau ki muri nei.
‌ʻE Sihova, fanongo mai kiate au, koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai ni ko Sihova koe ko e ʻOtua, pea kuo ke toe liliu mai ʻe koe ʻa honau loto.”
38 Na ko te tino takanga iho o te ahi a Ihowa, pau ake te tahunga tinana, me nga wahie, me nga kohatu, me te puehu, mitikia ake ana ano hoki te wai i roto i te waikeri.
Pea naʻe toki tō hifo ai ʻae afi ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne keina ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo e fefie, mo e ngaahi maka, mo e efu, pea ne ʻemo hake ʻae vai ʻaia naʻe ʻi he luo.
39 A, no te kitenga o te iwi katoa, tapapa ana, me te ki ake ano, Ko Ihowa, ko ia te Atua: ko Ihowa, ko ia te Atua.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai ki ai, naʻa nau tō hifo ki honau mata: pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko Sihova, ko e ʻOtua pe ia; ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua pe ia.”
40 Katahi ka mea a Iraia ki a ratou, Hopukia nga poropiti a Paara: kei mawhiti tetahi o ratou. Na hopukia ana e ratou, a kawea ana e Iraia ki raro, ki te awa, ki Kihona, patua iho ki reira.
Naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kiate kinautolu, “Puke mai ʻae kau kikite ʻa Peali; ʻoua naʻa tuku ke hao hanau tokotaha.” Pea naʻa nau puke ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe ʻohifo kinautolu ʻe ʻIlaisiā ki he vaitafe ko Kisoni, mo ne tāmateʻi kinautolu ʻi ai.
41 Na ka mea a Iraia ki a Ahapa, Haere ki runga, ki te kai, ki te inu; he haruru ua hoki te rara mai nei.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kia ʻEhapi, “Ke ke tuʻu hake, mo ke kai mo inu; he ʻoku longolongo ʻuha lahi ʻaupito.”
42 Heoi haere ana a Ahapa ki te kai, ki te inu. Ko Iraia ia i piki ki te tihi o Karamere; a tapapa ana ia ki te whenua, ko tona mata i roto i ona turi.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻEhapi ke ne kai mo inu. Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻIlaisiā ki he tumutumu ʻo Kameli; pea naʻa ne fakato hifo ia ki he kelekele, pea ne ʻai hono mata ki hono vahaʻa tui,
43 Na ka mea ia ki tana tangata, Tena, piki atu inaianei, tirohia te ritenga atu o te moana. Na piki ana ia, titiro ana, a ka mea, Kahore kau he mea. Na ka mea ano tera, Hoki atu ano, kia whitu nga hokinga.
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, “ʻAlu hake eni ʻo sio atu ki tahi.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake, mo ne sio, pea ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ha meʻa.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ke ke toe ʻalu ke liunga fitu.”
44 A i te whitu ka mea ia, Nana, he kapua nohinohi tera te haere ake ra i roto i te moana; kei te kapu o te ringa tangata te rite. Na ka mea tera, Haere, mea atu ki a Ahapa, Whakanohoia tou hariata, ka haere ki raro; kei araia koe e te ua.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono liunga fitu, naʻa ne pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku ha hake mei he tahi ha kihiʻi ʻao siʻi, ʻoku hangē ko e nima ʻoe tangata.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ke ke ʻalu hake, ʻo tala kia ʻEhapi, Teuteu hoʻo saliote, pea ke ʻalu hifo, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa taʻofi koe ʻe he ʻuha.”
45 Na mea rawa ake kua pouri pu te rangi i te kapua, i te hau, nui atu hoki te ua. Na rere ana tera a Ahapa i runga i te hariata, a haere ana ki Ietereere.
Pea lolotonga eni, naʻe fakapoʻupoʻuli ʻae langi ʻi he ngaahi ʻao mo e matangi, pea naʻe tō ʻae ʻuha lahi ʻaupito. Pea naʻe heka ʻa ʻEhapi, ʻo ne ʻalu ki Sesilili.
46 A i runga i a Iraia te ringa o Ihowa; na whitikiria ana e ia tona hope, a rere ana i mua i a Ahapa a tae noa ki Ietereere.
Pea naʻe ʻia ʻIlaisiā ʻae nima ʻo Sihova; pea naʻa ne hukihuki ʻa hono vala, mo ne lele muʻomuʻa ʻia ʻEhapi ʻo aʻu ki he hūʻanga ʻo Sesilili.
