1 Hamuera 22

1 Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira, a rere ana ki te ana o Aturama. A ka rongo ona tuakana, me te whare katoa o tona papa, na ka haere ki reira, ki a ia.

Ko ia naʻe ʻalu mei ai ʻa Tevita, pea hao ʻo hoko atu ki he ʻana ʻo ʻAtulami: pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻa hono ngaahi kāinga mo e fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻene tamai, naʻa nau ʻalu hifo ai kiate ia.

2 I huihui ano ki a ia nga tangata katoa e pehia ana e te aha, e te aha, me nga tangata i a ratou nei etahi taonga tarewa, me nga tangata katoa e mamae ana te ngakau: a ko ia hei rangatira mo ratou, tata tonu ki te wha rau nga tangata i piri ki a i a.

Mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe mamahi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻe moʻua, mo ia kotoa pē naʻe loto mamahi, naʻa nau fakakātoa ʻakinautolu kiate ia; pea hoko ia ko e ʻeiki pule kiate kinautolu: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fāngeau nai.

3 Na ka haere atu a Rawiri i reira ki Mihipa o Moapa, ka mea ki te kingi Moapa, Tukua toku papa me toku whaea kia haere mai ki a koutou, kia mohio ra ano ahau ki ta te Atua e mea ai ki ahau.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Tevita ki Misipa ʻo Moape: pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he tuʻi ʻo Moape, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe tuku ke haʻu ʻeku tamai mo ʻeku faʻē, ke nofo kiate koe, ke ʻoua ke u hoko ʻo ʻilo ʻaia ʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua maʻaku.”

4 Na ka kawea raua e ia ki te aroaro o te kingi o Moapa, a noho ana kaua ki a ia i nga ra katoa i noho ai a Rawiri i te pourewa

Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻakinaua ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Moape: pea naʻa nau nonofo mo ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē naʻe nofo ai ʻa Tevita ʻi he ʻana.

5 Na ka mea a Kara poropiti ki a Rawiri, Kaua e noho ki te pourewa, whakatika, haere ki te whenua o hura. Na ka haere a Rawiri, a noho ana i te nehenehe i Harete

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he palōfita ko Kata kia Tevita, “ʻOua naʻa ke nofo ʻi he ʻana; ʻalu, pea ke mole atu ki he fonua ʻo Siuta.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Tevita, pea hoko atu ki he vaoʻakau ʻo Halete.

6 A, no te rongonga o Haora kua kitea a Rawiri ratou ko ona hoa, na i Kipea a Haora e noho ana, i raro i tetahi rakau, i Rama, me tana tao i tona ringa, me te tu ana tangata katoa i tona taha;

Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Saula kuo ʻilo ʻa Tevita mo e kau tangata naʻe ʻiate ia (pea naʻe nofo ʻa Saula ʻi Kipea ʻi he lolo ʻakau ʻi Lama, naʻe ʻi hono nima hono tao, pea tuʻu takatakai kiate ia ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē).

7 Ka mea a Haora ki ana tangata e tu ana i tona taha, Whakarongo mai ki ahau, e nga Pinemini; e homai ranei e te tama a Hehe he mara ki a koutou katoa, he kari waina, e meinga ranei koutou katoa e ia hei rangatira mano, hei rangatira rau;

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia, “ʻAe kau Penisimani, mou tokanga mai; ʻe foaki koā ʻe he foha ʻo Sese kiate kimoutolu taki taha ʻae ngaahi ngoue, mo e ngoue vaine, pea ne ngaohi ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ke ʻeiki ki he ngaahi toko afe, mo e ngaahi toko teau;

8 I whakatenetene mai ai koutou ki ahau; a kahore tetahi hei whakaatu ki ahau i te whakaritenga kawenata a taku tama raua ko te tama a Hehe: kahore tetahi o koutou e pouri moku, e whaki ranei ki ahau, na taku tama i whakatutehu taku tangata ki ahau, kia whanga puku, penei me tenei inaianei?

koeʻuhi ke mou alea ai ke angatuʻu kotoa pē kiate au, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fakahā kiate au kuo alea pau ʻa hoku foha mo e foha ʻo Sese, pea ʻoku ʻikai hamou tokotaha ʻoku ʻofa kiate au, pe fakahā kiate au, kuo langaʻi ʻe hoku foha ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ke angatuʻu kiate au, ke toitoi ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku fai he ʻaho ni?”

9 Katahi ka oho mai ko Roeke Eromi, he kaitohutohu no nga tangata a Haora, ka mea, I kite ahau i te tama a Hehe e haere ana ki Nopo, ki a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu.

Pea naʻe toki lea ʻa Toeki ko e tangata ʻItomi, ʻaia kuo fakanofo ki he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Saula, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻaku mamata ki he foha ʻo Sese, naʻe haʻu ia ki Nopi, kia ʻAhimeleki ko e foha ʻo ʻAhitupe.

10 Na uia ana e tera he tikanga mana i a Ihowa; i hoatu ano e ia he o mona; ko te hoari hoki a Koriata Pirihitini i hoatu ano e ia ki a ia.

Pea naʻa ne fehuʻi kia Sihova maʻana, ʻo ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae meʻakai, mo ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae heletā ʻa Kolaiate ko e tangata Filisitia.”

11 Katahi te kingi ka unga tangata atu hei karanga i te tohunga, i a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu ratou ko te whare katoa o tona papa, i nga tohunga e noho ana i Nopo, a ka haere katoa mai ratou ki te kingi.

Pea naʻe fekau leva ʻe he tuʻi ke ʻomi ʻa ʻAhimeleki ko e taulaʻeiki, ko e foha ʻo ʻAhitupe, mo e fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻene tamai, ʻae kau taulaʻeiki naʻe ʻi Nopi pea naʻa nau haʻu kotoa pē ki he tuʻi

12 Na ka mea a Haora, Whakarongo mai, e te tama a Ahitupu. A ka mea tera, Tenei ahau, e toku ariki.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “Ko eni, fanongo, ʻa koe ko e foha ʻo ʻAhitupe. Pea pehē ʻe ia, ʻE hoku ʻeiki ko au eni.”

13 Ano ra ko Haora ki a ia, He aha korua ko te tama a Hehe i whakatenetene mai ai ki ahau, a hoatu ana e koe he taro mana, he hoari, uia ana ano e koe he tikanga mana i te Atua, kia whakatika mai ai ia ki ahau whanga ai; koia ano tenei inaianei?

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo mou alea mo angatuʻu fakataha ai kiate au, ʻa koe mo e foha ʻo Sese, koeʻuhi ʻi hoʻo ʻatu kiate ia ʻae mā, mo e heletā, mo ke fehuʻi ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko ia; koeʻuhi ke angatuʻu ia kiate au, mo toitoi, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku fai he ʻaho ni?”

14 Na ka utu a Ahimereke ki te kingi, ka mea, Ha, ko wai o au tangata katoa hei rite mo Rawiri te pono? ko te hunaonga hoki ia a te kingi, e haere ana i tau ngare, e whakahonoretia ana hoki i roto i tou whare?

Pea naʻe leaange ʻa ʻAhimeleki ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Pea ko hai ʻoku angatonu ʻi hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo hangē ko Tevita, ʻaia ko e foha ʻi he fono ki he tuʻi, pea ʻoku ʻalu ʻi hoʻo fekau, pea ʻoku ongoongolelei ʻi ho fale?

15 No tenei ra koia i timata ai ahau ki te ui mea mana i te Atua? kahore rapea! kaua tetahi mea e whakairia mai e te kingi ki tana pononga, ki tetahi ranei o te whare o toku papa: kahore hoki tau pononga i mohio ki tetahi aha o tenei, ahakoa iti, a hakoa rahi.

He ko ʻeku kamata fehuʻi ia ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko ia? Ke mamaʻo ia ʻiate au: ke ʻoua naʻa tuku kovi ʻe he tuʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, pe ki he fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻeku tamai: he naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha meʻa siʻi ʻi he meʻa ni kotoa pē, [ha meʻa ]siʻi pe [ha meʻa ]lahi.”

16 Na ka mea te kingi, Ko te mate anake mou, e Ahimereke, mou, mo te whare katoa ano o tou papa.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻAhimeleki, ko e moʻoni te ke mate, ʻa koe, mo e fale kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo tamai.”

17 Na ka mea te kingi ki nga kaitiaki e tu ana i tona taha, Tahuri atu, whakamatea nga tohunga a Ihowa; he mea ko o ratou ringa ano kei a Rawiri; i mohio hoki ratou e rere ana ia, a kihai i whakaatu mai ki ahau. Otiia kihai i pai nga tangata a te k ingi kia totoro atu o ratou ringa, kia rere ki runga ki nga tohunga a Ihowa.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki he kau tangata naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia, “Mou hanga ʻo tāmateʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻa Sihova: koeʻuhi kuo fekuki honau nima mo Tevita pea koeʻuhi naʻa nau ʻilo ʻene hola, pea naʻe ʻikai fakahā ia kiate au.” Ka naʻe ʻikai fie mafao atu honau nima ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ke taaʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻa Sihova.

18 Na ka mea te kingi ki a Roeke, Tahuri atu, e rere ki runga ki nga tohunga. Na tahuri ana a Roeke, Eromi, a rere ana ki runga ki nga tohunga, a e waru tekau ma rima nga tangata i patua e ia i taua ra, he hunga kakahu i te epora rinena.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia Toeki, “Tafoki koe,” pea ke taaʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki. Pea naʻe tafoki ʻa Toeki ko e tangata ʻItomi, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki, pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae tangata ʻe toko valungofulu ma toko nima, ʻaia naʻa nau ʻai ʻae ʻefoti ʻoe tupenu lelei.

19 I patua ano hoki e ia a Nopo, te pa o nga tohunga, ki te mata o te hoari, te tane, te wahine, nga tamariki, nga mea ngote u, nga kau, nga kaihe, nga hipi, ki te mata o te hoari.

Pea ko Nopi ko e kolo ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, naʻa ne taaʻi ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā, ʻae kau tangata mo e kau fefine, ʻae fānau mo e tamaiki huhu, ʻae fanga pulu, mo e fanga ʻasi, mo e fanga sipi, ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā.

20 Na i mawhiti tetahi o nga tama a Ahimereke tama a Ahitupu, tona ingoa ko Apiatara; a rere ana ki te whai i a Rawiri.

Pea ko e tokotaha ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAhimeleki ko e foha ʻo ʻAhitupe, naʻe ui ko ʻApiata, naʻe hao ia, pea hola kia Tevita.

21 A na Apiatara i korero ki a Rawiri ta Haora patunga i nga tohunga a Ihowa.

Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe ʻApiata kia Tevita ʻae tāmateʻi ʻe Saula ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻa Sihova.

22 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Apiatara, I mohio ano ahau i taua ra i a Roeke Eromi i kona, ka whakaaturia e ia ki a Haora. Naku i mate ai nga tangata katoa o te whare o tou papa.

Pea pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻApiata, “Ne u ʻilo ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ʻa Toeki ko e tangata ʻItomi, koeʻuhi te ne tala moʻoni ia kia Saula: kuo tupu ʻiate au ʻenau tāmateʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo hoʻo tamai.

23 E noho koe ki ahau, kaua e wehi; ko te tangata hoki e whai ana i te mate moku, e whai ana i te mate mou: na kei ahau nei koe, ka tiakina koe.

Ka ke nofo koe kiate au, pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē: he ko ia ʻoku ne kumi ʻeku moʻui, ʻoku ne kumi hoʻo moʻui: ka ʻi hoʻo ʻiate au te ke maluʻia ai.”
