1 Hamuera 2

1 Na ka karakia a Hana, ka mea, E whakamanamana ana toku ngakau ki a Ihowa, kua ara toku haona i a Ihowa; ka rahi toku waha ki oku hoariri; noku ka koa ki tau whakaoranga.

Pea naʻe lotu ʻa ʻAna, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku fiefia hoku loto ʻia Sihova, ʻoku fakahikihiki hoku mālohi ʻia Sihova; kuo mafaʻa hoku ngutu ki hoku ngaahi fili; ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku fiefia ʻi hoʻo fakamoʻui.

2 Kahore he mea tapu, ko Ihowa anake; kahore ke atu, ko koe anake: kahore ano hoki he kamaka hei rite mo to tatou Atua.

‌ʻOku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻo hangē ko Sihova: he ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha mo koe: pea ʻoku ʻikai foki ha makatuʻu ʻo hangē ko hotau ʻOtua.

3 Kati te whakanui i te korero whakahihi; kei puta te whakapehapeha i o koutou mangai: he Atua mohio hoki a Ihowa, a ka paunatia e ia nga mahi.

‌ʻOua naʻa toe talanoa fakafiefielahi faufau pehē; ʻoua naʻa hā mai ʻae lea mālohi mei ho ngutu: he ko e ʻOtua ʻoe loto ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻekeʻi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi faianga.

4 Whati ana nga kopere a te hunga marohirohi; a ko te hunga i tutuki te waewae, ko te kaha hei whitiki mo ratou.

Kuo fesiʻi ʻae ngaahi kaufana ʻae kau tangata mālohi, pea ko kinautolu naʻe tūkia kuo nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae mālohi.

5 E mahi ana hei utu taro te hunga i makona i mua; a mutu ake ta te hunga i matekai: heoi kua tokowhitu a te pakoko i whanau ai; a iwikore noa iho te mea kua tokomaha nei ana tamariki.

Ko kinautolu naʻe mākona kuo nau fakamoʻua ʻakinautolu ke ngāue ki he meʻakai; pea kuo ngata ʻakinautolu naʻe fiekaia: pea kuo fanauʻi ʻae toko fitu ʻe he paʻa; pea ko ia kuo tokolahi ʻene fānau kuo hoko ʻo vaivai.

6 Ko Ihowa e whakamate ana, a ko ia e whakaora ana: mana e riro ai ki raro ki te reinga, mana e kake ai ki runga. (Sheol h7585)

‌ʻOku tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova, pea ne fakamoʻui: ʻoku ne ʻohifo ki he faʻitoka, pea ʻoku ne toe ʻo hake. (Sheol h7585)

7 Ko Ihowa hei whakarawakore, ko ia hei whakawhiwhi ki te taonga: mana e whakaiti, mana ano hoki e whakaara.

‌ʻOku fakamasiva ʻe Sihova, pea ne fakamaʻumeʻaʻi: ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa, mo ne hiki ki ʻolunga.

8 Whakaarahia ana e ia te iti i roto i te puehu, ara ana i a ia te iti i roto i te puehu, ara ana i a ia te rawakore i roto i te puranga paru, a whakanohoia iho ki roto ki nga rangatira, meinga ana kia whiwhi ki te torona kororia: no Ihowa ra hoki nga pou turanga o te whenua; a whakanohoia iho e ia te ao ki runga.

‌ʻOku ne hiki hake ʻae masiva mei he efu, ʻo fakahikihiki ʻae faʻa kole mei he tuʻunga veve, ke fakanofo ʻakinautolu mo e houʻeiki, pea ke ne ngaohi ʻakinautolu kenau maʻu ʻae nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki: he ko e ngaahi pou ʻo māmani ʻoku ʻo Sihova, pea kuo ne fokotuʻu ʻa māmani ki ai.

9 Mana nga waewae o tana hunga tapu e tiaki; ko te hunga kino ia ka whakanohoia ki roto ki te pouri wahangu ai; ehara hoki te kaha i te mea e riro ai te papa i te tangata.

‌ʻE tauhi ʻe ia ʻae vaʻe ʻo ʻene kau māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻe longo pe ʻae kau angakovi ʻi he poʻuli; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai lavaʻi ha meʻa ʻe ha tangata ʻi he mālohi.

10 Mongamonga noa nga hoariri o Ihowa; ka papa mai tana whatitiri i te rangi ki a ratou: ka whakarite whakawa a Ihowa mo nga pito o te whenua; mana e homai he kaha ki tana kingi, e whakaara te haona o tana i whakawahi ai.

‌ʻE fesifesiʻi ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo Sihova; ʻe mana ʻe ia kiate kinautolu mei langi: “ʻE fakamaau ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani; pea ʻe foaki ʻe ia ʻae mālohi ki heʻene tuʻi, pea ne fakahikihiki ʻae mālohi ʻo ia kuo ne pani.”

11 Na ka haere a Erekana ki Rama, ki tona whare. A minita ana taua tamaiti ki a Ihowa i te aroaro o te tohunga, o Eri.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻElikena ki hono fale ki Lama. Pea naʻe tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻe he tamasiʻi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Ilai ko e taulaʻeiki.

12 Na he tama na Periara nga tama a Eri; kihai ratou i mohio ki a Ihowa.

Ka ko eni ko e fānau ʻoe angakovi ʻae ongo foha ʻo Ilai; naʻe ʻikai te na ʻilo ʻa Sihova.

13 Na ko te tikanga tenei a nga tohunga i roto i te iwi; i te patunga a tetahi i te whakahere, ka haere te tangata a te tohunga, i te mea kei te kohua ano nga kiko, me te marau e toru nei nga koikoi i tona ringa;

Pea ko e anga naʻe fai ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he kakai, naʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻatu ʻe ha tangata ha feilaulau, naʻe haʻu ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki ʻi he kei haka ʻae kakano, mo e meʻa huhu matatolu ʻi hono nima;

14 Na ka werohia e ia ki te peihana, ki te pata ranei, ki te hopane ranei, ki te kohua ranei; ko nga mea katoa i riro ake i te marau, i tangohia e te tohunga ki taua mea. Pena tonu ta ratou mahi i Hiro ki nga Iharaira katoa i haere ki reira.

Pea naʻa ne velo ia ki he fakapaku, pe ko e kulo, pe ha meʻa haka luoluo, pea ʻilonga ʻaia naʻe matoʻo hake ʻe he huhu naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki maʻana. Pea naʻe pehē ʻenau fai ʻi Sailo ki he kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ki ai.

15 Ae ra, i te mea ano hoki kahore i tahuna noatia nga ngako, ka haere te tangata a te tohunga, ka mea ki te tangata nana te whakahere, Homai tetahi wahi kiko kia tunua ma te tohunga; e kore hoki ia e tango i au kiko, i te mea kohua, engari i te me a mata.

Pea ʻi he teʻeki ai tutu foki ʻae ngako, naʻe haʻu ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē ki he tangata ʻoku fai ʻae feilaulau, “Tuku mai ʻae kakano ke tunu maʻae taulaʻeiki; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ne kai kakano haka ʻiate koe, ka ko e kanomate.”

16 A, ki te ki mai te tangata ki a ia, Aianei pu tahuna ai e ratou te ngako, a hei reira koe tango ai i ta tou ngakau i pai ai; katahi tera ka mea atu, Kahore; engari me homai e koe aianei; a, ki te kahore, ka tangohia maoritia e ahau.

Pea kapau naʻe pehēange ʻe ha tangata kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa nau taʻofi kae tutu leva ʻae ngako, pea ke toki ʻave ʻa ia, kotoa pē ʻoku ke loto ki ai; naʻe tali pehē leva ʻe ia ia, ‘ʻIkai;’ ka ke tuku mai leva ia kiate au: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, te u ʻave fakamālohi ia.”

17 Na nui atu te hara o aua taitama i te aroaro o Ihowa: no te mea i whakarihariha nga tangata ki te whakahere a Ihowa.

Ko ia naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae angahala ʻae ongo talavou ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova: he naʻe fehiʻa ʻae kakai ki he feilaulau kia Sihova.

18 Ko Hamuera ia i minita ki te aroaro o Ihowa, he tamariki nei ia, whitiki rawa tona epora rinena.

Ka naʻe tauhi ʻe Samuela ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ko e tamasiʻi kuo nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae ʻefoti ʻoe tupenu lelei.

19 I hanga ano he koroka iti e tona whaea mona, a kawea ana ki a ia i tenei tau, i tenei tau, i o raua haerenga ko tana tahu ki te patu i te whakahere o te tau.

Pea naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻae kofutuʻa siʻi, ʻo ʻomi kiate ia ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē, ʻi heʻene ʻalu hake mo hono husepāniti ke ʻatu ʻae feilaulau ʻoe taʻu.

20 Na ka whakapai a Eri i a Erekana raua ko tana wahine, ka mea, Ma Ihowa e homai he uri ki a koe i roto i tenei wahine mo tenei ka tukua nei ki a Ihowa. Na hoki ana raua ki to raua wahi.

Pea naʻe tāpuaki ʻe Ilai ʻa ʻElikena mo hono uaifi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻatu ʻe Sihova kiate koe ʻae hako ʻi he fefine ni ʻi he kole ni ʻaia kuo tuku kia Sihova.” Pea naʻa na ō ki hona ʻapi.

21 Na ka titiro a Ihowa ki a Hana, a ka hapu ano ia, ka whanau, tokotoru nga tama, tokorua nga kotiro. A tupu ana te tamaiti, a Hamuera, i te aroaro o Ihowa.

Pea naʻe ʻaʻahi ʻa Sihova kia ʻAna, ko ia naʻa ne feitama, pea ne fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama ʻe toko tolu mo e taʻahine ʻe toko ua. Pea naʻe tupu pē ʻae tamasiʻi ko Samuela ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.

22 Na kua koroheke rawa a Eri; kua rongo hoki ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ana tama ki a Iharaira katoa, ki to raua takotaoranga hoki ki nga wahine i mahi ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.

Pea kuo motuʻa lahi ʻa Ilai, ʻo ne fanongo ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe hono ongo foha ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē; mo ʻenau mohe mo e kau fefine naʻe fakataha ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.

23 Na ka mea ia ki a raua, He aha korua i mahi ai i enei mea? kua rongo hoki ahau ki tenei iwi katoa ki a korua mahi kino.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua. “Ko e hā ʻoku mo fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa pehē? He ʻoku ou fanongo ki hoʻomou fai angakovi ʻi he kakai ni kotoa pē.

24 Kati ra, e aku tama; ehara hoki i te pai te korero e rangona nei e ahau: e mea ana korua i te iwi o Ihowa kia peka ke.

‌ʻOua, ʻe hoku ongo foha; he ʻoku ʻikai ko e ongolelei ʻoku ou ongoʻi: ʻoku mou fakalanga ʻae lāunga ʻi he kakai ʻo Sihova.

25 Ki te hara he tangata ki tona hoa, ma te Atua te whakawa mona: tena ko tenei ka hara te tangata ki a Ihowa, ko wai hei kaiwawao mona? Heoi kihai raua i pai ki te whakarongo ki te reo o to raua papa, no te mea i pai a Ihowa kia whakamatea raua.

Kapau ʻoku fai angahala ha tangata ʻe tokotaha ki he tokotaha, ʻe fakamaauʻi ia ʻe he fakamaau: pea kapau ʻoku fai angahala ʻe ha tangata kia Sihova, ko hai te ne fakalaloaʻi ia?” Ka naʻe ʻikai te na tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo ʻena tamai, koeʻuhi naʻe finangalo ʻa Sihova ke tāmateʻi ʻakinaua.

26 A nui haere ana ano taua tamaiti, a Hamuera, e paingia ana e Ihowa, e nga tangata.

Pea naʻe tupu pē ʻae tamasiʻi ko Samuela, pea naʻe ʻofeina ia ʻia Sihova, pea mo e kakai foki.

27 Na ka haere mai tetahi tangata a te Atua ki a Eri, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kahore ianei ahau i puta marama ki te whare o tou papa, i a ratou i Ihipa, i pononga ai i te whare o Parao?

Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua kia Ilai, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, ʻIkai naʻaku hā atu au ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamai ʻi heʻenau ʻi ʻIsipite ʻi he fale ʻo Felo?

28 Kahore ranei ahau i whiriwhiri i a ia i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira hei tohunga moku, hei whakaeke whakahere ki runga ki taku aata, hei tahu whakakakara, hei kakahu i te epora ki toku aroaro? a hoatu ana ki te whare o tou papa nga whakahere ahi katoa a nga tamariki a Iharaira?

Pea ʻikai naʻaku fili ia mei he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli ke hoko ko hoku taulaʻeiki, ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi heʻeku feilaulauʻanga, ke tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala, pea ke kofuʻaki ʻae ʻefoti ʻi hoku ʻao? Pea ʻikai naʻaku foaki ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻae ngaahi feilaulau naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi ʻe he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli?

29 A he aha koutou i takahi ai i oku patunga tapu, i oku whakahere, i kiia e ahau mo toku nohoanga; i a koe ka whakahonore nei i au tama ki runga ake i ahau, a ka tetere nei koutou i nga mea papai o nga whakahere katoa a Iharaira, a taku iwi?

Ko e hā ʻoku mou ʻakahi ai ki heʻeku feilaulau, mo e meʻa ʻatu, ʻaia kuo u fekauʻi ʻi hoku nofoʻanga; mo ke fakaʻapaʻapa lahi hake ki ho ongo foha ʻiate au, ke fakasino kimoutolu ʻaki ʻae lelei lahi ʻoe ngaahi feilaulau ʻa ʻIsileli ko hoku kakai?

30 Na reira tenei kupu a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, He tika i mea ahau, ko tou whare me te whare o tou matua ka haere i toku aroaro a ake ake: na ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei inaianei, Kahore ra hoki; ka whakahonore hoki ahau i te hunga e whakahonore a na i ahau, ka whakaiti ano i te hunga e whakahawea ana ki ahau.

“Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Naʻaku pehē moʻoni, ko ho fale mo e fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻe ʻaʻeva ʻi hoku ʻao ʻo taʻengata: ka ko eni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Ke mamaʻo ia ʻiate au; he ko kinautolu ʻoku fakaʻapaʻapa kiate au, te u fakahikihikiʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ko kinautolu ʻoku manukiʻi au ʻe ʻikai te u tokangaʻi.

31 Nana, meake puta nga ra e tapahia ai e ahau tou ringa, me te ringa o te whare o tou papa, a kore iho tetahi koroheke i roto i tou whare.

Vakai, ʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, te u motuhi ai ho nima, pea mo e nima ʻoe fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, pea ʻe ʻikai ai ha tangata ʻe motuʻa ʻi ho fale.

32 A ka kite koe i te tukinotanga i toku nohoanga, i nga pai katoa e hoatu e te Atua ki a Iharaira; e kore ano tou whare e whai koroheke a ake ake.

Pea te ke mamata ki he fakamamahiʻi ʻo hoku nofoʻanga, neongo ʻae lelei kotoa pē kuo foaki ki ʻIsileli: pea ʻe ʻikai ha tangata ʻe motuʻa ʻi ho fale ʻo taʻengata.

33 Na, ko te tangata au e kore e hautopea atu i taku aata, ka ai ia hei whakapaunga mo ou kanohi, hei whakamamae mo tou ngakau: whakakaumatua kau hoki nga whanau hou o tou whare, ka mate i to ratou taiohinga.

Pea ko e tangata ʻoʻou, ʻaia ʻe ʻikai te u motuhi mei hoku feilaulauʻanga, ʻe hoko ia ke fakakui ho mata, mo fakamamahi ki ho loto: pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻe tupu ʻi ho fale tenau mate ʻi heʻenau kei fatu tangata.

34 Ko te tohu hoki tenei ki a koe, ka puta ki au tama tokorua, ki a Hoponi raua ko Pinehaha, kotahi ano te ra e mate ai raua tokorua.

Pea ko e fakaʻilonga eni kiate koe, ʻaia ʻe hoko ki ho ongo foha, ʻa Hofini mo Finiasi; ʻe mate ʻakinaua ʻi he ʻaho pē taha.

35 A ka whakaarahia ake e ahau he tohunga pono maku, hei mahi i ta toku ngakau, i ta toku hinengaro i pai ai, maku ano e hanga he whare pumau mona; a ka haereere ia i nga ra katoa i te aroaro o taku e whakawahi ai.

Pea te u fokotuʻu moʻoku ʻae taulaʻeiki angatonu, ʻaia te ne fai ʻo fakatatau mo ia ʻoku ʻi hoku loto mo hoku ʻatamai: pea te u langa moʻona ʻae fale ke maʻu; pea ʻe ʻeveʻeva ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo ia kuo u pani ʻo taʻengata.

36 A, ko te hunga katoa e mahue iho ki tou whare, ka haere mai, ka piko iho ki a ia mo tetahi pihi hiriwa, mo tetahi wahi taro, ka mea, Tena koe, kia uru atu ahau ki tetahi o nga mahi tohunga, kia kai ai ahau i tetahi kongakonga taro.

Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku toe ʻi ho fale, ʻo punou kiate ia ke maʻu ai ʻae konga siliva, mo e konga mā, pea tenau pehē, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku kiate au ha potu ngāue fakataulaʻeiki, ke u kai ai ha konga mā.”
