< 2 Whakapapa 10 >
1 Na ka haere a Rehopoama ki Hekeme: kua tae mai hoki a Iharaira katoa ki Hekeme ki te whakakingi i a ia.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Lehopoami ki Sikemi: he ne kuo ʻalu ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki Sikemi ke fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi.
2 A, no te rongonga o Ieropoama tama a Nepata; i Ihipa hoki ia, i rere hoki ki reira i te aroaro o Kingi Horomona; na hoki mai ana a Ieropoama i Ihipa.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ongoʻi ia ʻe Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ʻi ʻIsipite (he naʻe hola ia ki ai mei he ʻao ʻo Solomone ko e tuʻi, ) pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa Selopoami mei ʻIsipite.
3 Na ka tono tangata ratou ki te tiki i a ia. A ka haere a Ieropoama ratou ko Iharaira katoa, ka korero ki a Rehopoama, ka mea,
Pea naʻa nau fekau ʻo ui ia. Ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ʻa Selopoami mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻonau lea kia Lehopoami, ʻo pehē,
4 He pakeke te ioka i meatia e tou papa ki a matou: na mau e whakamama ake te mahi pakeke a tou papa me tana ioka taimaha i meatia e ia ki a matou, a ka mahi matou ki a koe.
“Naʻe fakamamahi ʻemau kavenga, ʻe hoʻo tamai: pea ko eni ke ke fakamaʻamaʻa ʻae ngaahi ngāue mamahi ʻa hoʻo tamai, mo ʻene haʻamonga mamafa ʻaia naʻa ne ʻai kiate kimautolu, pea te mau tauhi koe.”
5 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kia toru ra, ka hoki mai ki ahau. Na haere ana te iwi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou toe haʻu kiate au ʻoka hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae kakai.
6 Na ka runanga a Kingi Rehopoama ki nga kaumatua i tu i te aroaro o tona papa, o Horomona, i a ia i te ora, ka mea, Ki to koutou whakaaro me pehea te kupu e whakahokia e ahau ki tenei iwi?
Pea naʻe fakakaukau ʻae tuʻi ko Lehopoami mo e kau mātuʻa naʻe tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Solomone ko ʻene tamai ʻi heʻene kei moʻui, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā hoʻomou fakakaukau ki ha lea ke tali ʻaki ʻae kakai ni?
7 Na ka korero ratou ki a ia, ka mea, Ki te mea ka pai tau ki tenei iwi, a ka whakamanawareka koe i a ratou, a ka pai nga korero e korerotia e koe ki a ratou, na ko ratou hei pononga mau i nga ra katoa.
Pea naʻa nau lea kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Kapau te ke angaʻofa ki he kakai ni, pea ke fakafiemālie ʻakinautolu, mo ke lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea lelei kiate kinautolu, pea te nau hoko ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata.”
8 Otiia whakarerea ake e ia te whakaaro i whakatakotoria mana e nga kaumatua, a runanga ana ki nga taitama i kaumatua ngatahi nei me ia, i tu nei ki tona aroaro.
Ka naʻe liʻaki ʻe ia ʻae fakakaukau naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻe he kau mātuʻa, pea fakakaukau ia mo e kau talavou naʻe toʻutangata mo kaumeʻa mo ia, pea nau tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao.
9 I mea ia ki a ratou, Ki to koutou whakaaro me pehea te kupu e whakahokia e tatou ki tenei hunga i korero mai nei ki ahau, i mea mai nei, Whakamamakia ake te ioka i meatia e tou papa ki a matou?
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā homou loto ʻomoutolu ki he tali ʻe fai ki he kakai ni,” ʻaia kuo nau lea mai kiate au, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke fakamaʻamaʻa siʻi ʻae haʻamonga ʻaia naʻe ʻai ʻe hoʻo tamai kiate kimautolu?”
10 Na ka korero ki a ia nga taitama i kaumatua ngatahi nei me ia, ka mea, Kia penei tau ki atu ki tenei hunga i korero mai nei ki a koe, i mea mai nei, I whakataimahatia e tou papa to matou ioka, na kia mama tau ki a matou; kia penei tau ki atu ki a ratou, ko toku maihao iti, ka nui atu i te hope o toku papa.
Pea naʻe lea kiate ia ʻae kau talavou ʻa ia naʻe tupu hake mo kaumeʻa mo ia, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke tali pehē ʻae kakai naʻe lea kiate koe, ʻo pehē, naʻe fakamamafa ʻemau kavenga ʻe hoʻo tamai, ka ke fakamaʻamaʻa siʻi ia ʻe koe maʻamautolu: te ke tala ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻE lahi hoku louhiʻi nima siʻi ʻi he kongaloto ʻo ʻeku tamai.’
11 Na, i whakawaha e toku papa he ioka taimaha ki a koutou, ka tapiritia e ahau tetahi atu mea ki to koutou ioka; he wepu ta toku papa i whiu ai i a koutou, otiia ka whiua koutou e ahau ki te kopiona.
He koeʻuhi, ‘Naʻe ʻai ʻe heʻeku tamai ʻae haʻamonga mamafa kiate kimoutolu, te u fakalahi ki hoʻomou haʻamonga: naʻe kinisi ʻakimoutolu ʻe heʻeku tamai ʻaki ʻae meʻa kinisi, ka te u kinisi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi sikopio.’”
12 Heoi kua tae a Ieropoama ratou ko te iwi katoa ki a Rehopoama i te toru o nga ra; ko ta te kingi hoki tena i korero ai, i a ia i mea ra, Hoki mai ki ahau i te toru o nga ra.
Ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Selopoami mo e kakai kotoa pē kia Lehopoami ʻi hono ʻaho tolu, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Toe haʻu kiate au ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho.”
13 A pakeke tonu ta te kingi i whakahoki ai ki a ratou; whakarerea ake e Rehopoama te whakaaro o nga kaumatua,
Pea naʻe lea mālohi ʻae tuʻi kiate kinautolu: pea naʻe liʻaki ʻe he tuʻi ko Lehopoami ʻae fakakaukau ʻae kau mātuʻa,
14 Ka korero ki a ratou i runga i to nga taitama whakaaro, a ka mea, I whakataimahatia to koutou ioka e toku papa, heoi ka tapiritia atu ano e ahau: i whiua koutou e toku papa ki te wepu, ka whiua ia koutou e ahau ki te kopiona.
Pea ne talia ʻakinautolu ʻo fakatatau ki ke fakakaukau ʻoe kau talavou, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe fakamamafa hoʻomou haʻamonga ʻe heʻeku tamai, ka te u fakalahi ki ai: naʻe kinisi ʻakimoutolu ʻe heʻeku tamai ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa kinisi, ka te u kinisi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi sikopio.”
15 Heoi kihai i rongo te kingi ki ta te iwi; na te Atua hoki te take, kia mana ai tana kupu i korero ai a Ihowa, na te mangai o Ahia Hironi ki a Ieropoama tama a Nepata.
Ko ia naʻe ʻikai tokanga ʻae tuʻi ki he kakai: he naʻe mei he ʻOtua ʻae meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻe Sihova ʻene folofola, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ia ʻAhisa ko e tangata Sailo, kia Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati.
16 A, no te kitenga o Iharaira katoa kihai te kingi i rongo ki ta ratou, ka utua e te iwi te kingi; ka mea ratou, Ko te aha ianei to matou wahi i a Rawiri? kahore nei hoki o tatou wahi tupu i te tama a Hehe: ki o koutou teneti, e Iharaira! na kia w hai kanohi koe ki tou whare, e Rawiri! Heoi haere ana a Iharaira katoa ki tona teneti, ki tona teneti.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ʻae tuʻi kiate kinautolu, naʻe lea ʻae kakai ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā hamau ʻinasi ʻia Tevita? Pea ʻoku ʻikai hamau tofiʻa ʻi he foha ʻo Sese: ʻE ʻIsileli, ke taki taha ʻalu ʻae tangata ki hono fale fehikitaki: pea ko eni, ʻa Tevita vakai ki ho fale ʻoʻou.” Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki.
17 Ko nga tama ia a Iharaira e noho ana i nga pa o Hura, ko Rehopoama i kingi mo ratou.
Ka koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe nofo ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, naʻe pule ʻa Lehopoami kiate kinautolu.
18 Katahi ka tono a Kingi Rehopoama i te rangatira takoha, i a Harorama; a akina ana ia e nga tama a Iharaira ki te kohatu, a mate iho. Na hohoro tonu te eke o Kingi Rehopoama ki tona hariata, a rere ana ki Hiruharama.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ko Lehopoami ʻa ʻAtolami ʻaia naʻe pule ki he tukuhau: pea naʻe tolongaki ʻaki ia ʻae maka ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea pekia ai ia. Ka naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ʻe Lehopoami ke heka ki heʻene saliote, ke hola ki Selūsalema.
19 Heoi whakakeke ana a Iharaira ki te whare o Rawiri, a taea noatia tenei ra.
Pea kuo angatuʻu ʻa ʻIsileli ki he fale ʻo Tevita ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni.
