2 Whakapapa 20
1 Na i muri i tenei ka haere mai nga tama a Moapa, ratou ko nga tama a Amona, a hei hoa mo ratou ko etahi o nga Amoni, ki te whawhai ki a Iehohapata.
Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē foki, ko e fānau ʻa Moape, mo e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo e tokolahi naʻe fakataha mo e kau ʻAmoni, naʻa nau haʻu ke tauʻi ʻa Sihosafate:
2 Katahi ka haere mai etahi, ka korero ki a Iehohapata, ka mea, He ope nui tenei te haere mai nei ki a koe i tera taha o te moana, i Hiria. Nana, kei Hatetono Tamara ratou, ara kei Enekeri.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae niʻihi naʻe lea kia Sihosafate, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ke tauʻi koe mei he tuʻa tahi ʻi he potu mai ki heni ʻo Silia: pea vakai, ʻoku nau ʻi Hesasonitea, ʻaia ko Eniketi.”
3 Na ka wehi a Iehohapata, a ka tahuri tona aroaro ki te rapu i a Ihowa: i karangatia ano e ia he nohopuku puta noa i a Hura.
Pea naʻe manavahē ʻa Sihosafate, pea naʻa ne hanga ia ke kumi kia Sihova, pea ne fekau ke fai ʻae ʻaukai ʻi Siuta kotoa pē.
4 Na ka huihuia a Hura ki te rapu i ta Ihowa. I puta ratou i nga pa katoa o Hura ki te rapu i ta Ihowa.
Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻa Siuta kotoa pē, ke kole ʻae tokoni meia Sihova: ʻio, naʻa nau haʻu mei he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta ke kumi kia Sihova.
5 Na ka tu a Iehohapata i roto i te huihui o Hura, o Hiruharama, i te whare o Ihowa, i mua i te marae hou,
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Sihosafate ʻi he fakataha ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema, ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, ʻi he potu ki muʻa ʻoe lotoʻā foʻou,
6 A ka mea, E Ihowa, e te Atua o o matou matua, he teka ianei ko koe te Atua i te rangi, ko koe hoki te kaiwhakahaere tikanga mo nga kingitanga katoa mo nga tauiwi? kei tou ringa te kaha me te marohirohi; kahore hoki tetahi hei tu atu ki a koe.
ʻO ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, ʻikai ko e ʻOtua koe ʻi he langi? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ke pule ʻa koe ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe hiteni? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae mālohi mo e mafai, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa faʻa angatuʻu ha tokotaha kiate koe?
7 He teka ianei ko koe to matou Atua i peia ai nga tangata o tenei whenua i te aroaro o tau iwi, o Iharaira, a homai ana e koe ki nga uri o Aperahama, o tou hoa aroha a ake ake?
ʻIkai ko homau ʻOtua ʻa koe? Naʻa ke kapusi kituaʻā ʻae kakai ʻoe fonua ni mei he ʻao ʻo ho kakai ko ʻIsileli, mo ke foaki ia ki he hako ʻo ʻEpalahame ko ho kāinga ke taʻengata?
8 Na noho ana ratou ki konei; hanga ana e ratou ki konei he wahi tapu mo tou ingoa; i mea hoki ratou,
Pea naʻa nau nofo ai, pea kuo nau langa ʻi ai ʻae fale nofoʻanga moʻou ki ho huafa, ʻo pehē,
9 Ki te puta he aitua ki a matou, he hoari, he whakawakanga, he mate uruta, he matekai ranei, a ka tu matou ki te aronga o tenei whare, ki tou aroaro, kei tenei whare hoki tou ingoa, a ka karanga ki a koe, i a matou ka mate nei, na, mau e whakarong o mai, e whakaora.
ʻOka hoko ʻae kovi kiate kimautolu, ko e heletā, pe ko e fakamalaʻia, pe ko e mahaki lahi, pe ko e honge, kapau te mau tuʻu ʻi he mata fale ni, pea ʻi ho ʻao, (he ʻoku ʻi he fale ni ʻa ho huafa, ) pea [mau ]tangi kiate koe ʻi heʻemau tuʻutāmaki, pea te ke ongoʻi mo ke tokoni.
10 Na tenei nga tama a Amona, a Moapa, a Maunga Heira, kihai nei i homai e koe ki a Iharaira kia whakaekea e ratou i to ratou haerenga mai i te whenua o Ihipa; i peka ke hoki ratou i a ratou, kihai hoki i huna i a ratou;
Pea ko eni, vakai, ko e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mo Moape mo e moʻunga ko Seia, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai te ke tuku ʻa ʻIsileli ke nau tauʻi, ʻi heʻenau haʻu kituaʻā mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ka naʻa nau tafoki meiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu:
11 Nana, ko ta ratou utu tenei ki a matou, e haere mai ana ki te pei i a matou i tou kainga tupu i homai nei e koe hei kainga tupu mo matou.
Vakai, ki he anga ʻo ʻenau totongi kiate kimautolu, kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu ke kapusi ʻakimautolu mei ho tofiʻa, ʻaia kuo ke foaki kiate kimautolu ke mau maʻu.
12 E to matou Atua, e kore ianei koe e whakawa ki a ratou? kahore hoki o matou kaha i te aroaro o tenei ope nui e haere mai nei ki a matou; kahore hoki matou e mohio me aha matou: otiia e anga ana o matou kanohi ki a koe.
ʻE homau ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai te ke fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu? He ʻoku ʻikai ha mālohi ʻiate kimautolu ki he fuʻu tokolahi ni ʻoku haʻu ke tauʻi ʻakimautolu: pea ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo foki ʻae meʻa ke fai: ka ʻoku hanga homau mata kiate koe.”
13 Na tu tonu a Hura katoa ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a ratou kohungahunga, a ratou wahine, me a ratou tamariki.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Siuta kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, fakataha mo ʻenau ngaahi fānau siʻi, mo honau ngaahi uaifi, mo ʻenau ngaahi fānau.
14 I reira ka tau ki a Tahatiere tama a Hakaraia, tama a Penaia, tama a Teiere, tama a Matania, he Riwaiti, no nga tama a Ahapa, te wairua o Ihowa i waenganui o te whakaminenga.
Pea naʻe hoko ai ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kia Saesieli ko e foha ʻo Sakalia, ko e foha ʻo Penaia, ko e foha ʻo Seieli, ko e foha ʻo Matania, ko e tangata Livai ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAsafi, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fakataha:
15 Na ka mea ia, Whakarongo, e Hura katoa, koutou ko nga tangata o Hiruharama, me koe ano hoki, e Kingi Iehohapata; ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa ki a Koutou, Kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera ki tenei ope nui; no te mea ehara i a koutou te whawhai, engari na te Atua.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Mou fanongo mai, ʻa Siuta kotoa pē, mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, mo koe ʻae tuʻi ko Sihosafate, ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu, ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē pe ilifia koeʻuhi ko e fuʻu kakai tokolahi ni: he ʻoku ʻikai ʻamoutolu ʻae tau, ka ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua ia.
16 Apopo ka haere ki raro ki te tu i a ratou: nana, kei te piki mai ratou i te pikitanga i Titi; a ka kite koutou i a ratou i te pito o te awaawa, i te ritenga o te koraha o Ieruere.
Mou ʻalu hifo ʻapongipongi kiate kinautolu: vakai, ʻoku nau ʻalu hake ʻi he tahifohifo ʻo Sisi: pea te mou maʻu atu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe vaitafe, ʻi he mata toafa ʻo Silueli.
17 Kahore he rawa i whawhai ai koutou i tenei pakanga. Whakatikatika i a koutou, ka ata tu, ka matakitaki i ta Ihowa whakaoranga mo koutou, e Hura, e Hiruharama. Kaua e wehi, kaua e pawera. Apopo ka haere ki to ratou aroaro; a ko Ihowa hei hoa mo k outou.
ʻE ʻikai te mou tau ʻi he tau ni: kae tuʻumaʻu pe, ʻE Siuta mo Selūsalema, pea tuʻu longo pe, pea mamata ki he fakamoʻui ʻa Sihova maʻamoutolu: ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē pe ilifia: ʻalu atu kiate kinautolu ʻapongipongi: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.”
18 Na piko tonu te kanohi o Iehohapata ki te whenua: a takoto ana a Hura katoa, ratou ko nga tangata o Hiruharama, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, koropiko ana ki a Ihowa.
Pea naʻe punou hifo hono fofonga ʻe Sihosafate mo hono mata ki he kelekele: pea naʻe tō fakafoʻohifo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻa Siuta kotoa pē mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, ʻonau hū kia Sihova.
19 Na kua tu nga Riwaiti, nga tama a nga Kohati, nga tama a nga Korahi; kei te whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o Iharaira; nui atu te reo.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kau Livai, ʻoe fānau ʻae kau Kohate, pea ʻi he fānau ʻa Kola, ke nau fakamālō kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi ʻo māʻolunga.
20 Na ka maranga wawe ratou i te ata, a ka haere ki te koraha o Tekoa; a, i a ratou e haere ana, ka tu a Iehohapata, ka mea, Whakarongo, e Hura, koutou ko nga tangata o Hiruharama, whakapono ki ta Ihowa, ki ta to koutou Atua, a ka u koutou; whakapo no ki ta ana poropiti, a ka kake koutou.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi, ʻo ʻalu atu ki he toafa ʻo Tikoa: pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu atu, naʻe tuʻu ʻa Sihosafate ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Siuta, mo kimoutolu ʻae kakai ʻo Selūsalema, tokanga kiate au: Tui kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ko ia ʻe fakatuʻumaʻu ai ʻakimoutolu: tui ki heʻene kau palōfita, ko ia te mou monūʻia ai.”
21 Na ka whakatakoto whakaaro ia ki te iwi, a whakaritea ana e ia etahi hei waiata ki a Ihowa, hei whakamoemiti ki te ataahua o te tapu, i a ratou e haere ana i mua i te ope, hei mea, Whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa, he mau tonu hoki tana mahi tohu.
Pea hili ʻa ʻene fakakaukau fakataha mo e kakai, naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe ia ʻae kau hiva kia Sihova, ke nau fakaongo lelei ʻae matamatalelei ʻoe māʻoniʻoni, ʻi heʻenau ʻalu kituaʻā ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tau, mo nau lea ʻo pehē, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova: he ʻoku tolonga taʻengata ʻene angaʻofa.”
22 Na ka timata nei ratou te waiata, te whakamoemiti, ka whakatakotoria e Ihowa he pehipehi mo nga tama a Amona, a Moapa, mo o Maunga Heira i haere mai nei ki te whawhai ki a Hura; a ka patua ratou.
Pea ʻi heʻenau kamata ʻae hiva mo fai ʻae fakafetaʻi, naʻe fakatoka ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi malumu ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo Moape, mo e moʻunga ko Seia naʻe haʻu ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta: pea naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu.
23 I whakatika hoki nga tama a Amona raua ko Moapa ki nga tangata o Maunga Heira, ki te huna, ki te whakangaro i a ratou; a ka poto i a ratou nga tangata o Heira, na kua piri tenei ki tenei, hei whakangaro ratou i a ratou ano.
He naʻe tuʻu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni mo Moape ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai ʻoe moʻunga ko Seia, pea taaʻi mo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu: pea hili ʻenau fakangata ʻae kakai ʻo Seia, ʻaia nau fai ʻo fetokoniʻaki ʻi he fetāmateʻaki ʻakinautolu.
24 A, no te taenga o Hura ki te pourewa i te koraha, te tirohanga ki te ope, nana, o ratou tinana e takoto ana i te whenua, kihai tetahi i ora.
Pea ʻi he hoko ʻa Siuta ʻo ofi ki he fale leʻo ʻi he toafa, pea nau fakasio atu ki he kakai, pea ʻiloange, ko e ngaahi sino mate pe ʻakinautolu, kuo nau tō ki he kelekele, pea naʻe ʻikai ha niʻihi kuo hao.
25 Na, i te haerenga o Iehohapata ratou ko tona iwi ki te tango i o ratou taonga, he tini nga taonga i kitea ki a ratou, me nga tupapaku, me nga mea e matenuitia ana; huia ana mo ratou; kihai i taea te pikau; na e toru o ratou ra e tango ana i nga taonga, i te tini hoki.
Pea ʻi he hoko ʻa Sihosafate mo hono kakai ke ʻave ʻae vete ʻonautolu, naʻa nau ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu ʻae koloa lahi ʻi honau ngaahi sino mate, mo e ngaahi teunga maʻongoʻonga, ʻaia naʻa nau vete maʻanautolu, naʻe lahi hake ʻi heʻenau mafai ke fetuku ʻo ʻave: pea naʻa nau ʻaho tolu ʻi he tānaki ʻae koloa vete, he naʻe lahi ia.
26 A i te wha o nga ra ka huihui ratou ki te raorao o Peraka: i whakapai hoki ratou ki a Ihowa ki reira; koia i tapa ai te ingoa o taua wahi, ko te raorao o Peraka, a tae noa ki tenei ra.
Pea ʻi hono ʻaho fā, naʻa nau fakakātoa ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa ko Pelaka: he naʻa nau fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻi ai, ko ia naʻe fakahingoa ai ʻae potu ko ia ko “Pelaka,” ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
27 Katahi ka hoki nga tangata katoa o Hura, o Hiruharama, me Iehohapata ano i mua i a ratou; hoki koe ana ki Hiruharama; na Ihowa hoki ratou i mea kia koa ki a ratou hoariri.
Pea naʻe tafoki ʻae tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema, pea muʻomuʻa ʻa Sihosafate ʻiate kinautolu, ke nau toe ʻalu ki Selūsalema ʻi he fiefia: he naʻe fakafiefiaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki honau ngaahi fili.
28 Na ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama me nga hatere, me nga hapa, me nga tetere ki te whare o Ihowa.
Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape mo e ngaahi meʻa lea ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
29 Na tau ana te wehi o te Atua ki nga kingitanga katoa o nga whenua i to ratou rongonga kua whawhai a Ihowa ki nga hoariri o Iharaira.
Pea naʻe [tō ]ʻae manavahē ki he ʻOtua ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi fonua ko ia, ʻi heʻenau ongoʻi naʻe tau ʻe Sihova ki he ngaahi fili ʻo ʻIsileli.
30 Heoi ata takoto ana te kingitanga o Iehohapata; kua meinga hoki ia e tona Atua kia whai tanga manawa a tawhio noa.
Ko ia naʻe fiemālie ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Sihosafate: he naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe hono ʻOtua ʻae fiemālie ʻi he potu kotoa pē.
31 Na kingi ana a Iehohapata ki a Hura. E toru tekau ma rima ona tau i tona kingitanga; a e rua tekau ma rima ona tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama. Na ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Atupa, he tamahine na Hirihi.
Pea naʻe pule ʻa Sihosafate ki Siuta: naʻe tolungofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe nima ia ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma nima ʻi Selūsalema. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko ʻAsupa ko e ʻofefine ʻo Sili.
32 I haere ano hoki ia i te ara o tona papa, o Aha, kihai hoki i peka ke i tera; i mahia e ia te mea e tika ana ki te titiro a Ihowa.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo ʻAsa ko ʻene tamai, pea naʻe ʻikai tafoki mei ai, ka naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻaia naʻe lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
33 Otiia kihai nga wahi tiketike i whakakahoretia; kiano hoki te iwi i i whakaanga i o ratou ngakau ki te Atua o o ratou matua.
Ka ko e moʻoni naʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga: koeʻuhi naʻe teʻeki ai teuteu honau loto ʻe he kakai ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
34 Na, ko era atu meatanga a Iehohapata, o mua, me o muri, nana, kei te tuhituhi i roto i te pukapuka a Iehu tama a Hanani, e korerotia na i roto i te pukapuka o nga kingi o Iharaira.
Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngāue ʻa Sihosafate, ko e ʻuluaki mo e kimui, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Sehu, ko e foha ʻo Hanani, ʻaia kuo lau ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.
35 I muri i tenei ka huihuia nga whakaaro o Iehohapata kingi o Hura raua ko Ahatia kingi o Iharaira; he kino rawa ano nga mahi a tenei.
Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe fakakau ia ʻe Sihosafate kia ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe fai angakovi lahi:
36 I huihuia hoki o raua whakaaro kia hanga he kaipuke hei rere ki Tarahihi. Na hanga ana e raua nga kaipuke ki Ehiono Kepere.
Pea naʻa ne kau taha mo ia ke faʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka ke ʻalu ki Tasisi: pea naʻa nau faʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻi Esioni-Kepa.
37 Katahi a Erietere tama a Rorawa o Mareha ka poropiti i te he mo Iehohapata, ka mea, Kua huihuia na o korua whakaaro ko Ahatia, mo reira kua pakaru au mahi i a Ihowa. Na kua pakura nga kaipuke, a kihai i ahei te rere ki Tarahihi.
Pea naʻe lea ai ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo Totava mei Malesa ʻo valoki ʻa Sihosafate, ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo kau koe kia ʻAhasia, kuo maumau hoʻo ngaahi ngāue ʻe Sihova. Pea naʻe maumau ʻae ngaahi vaka, ko ia naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa folau ki Tasisi.”
