< 2 Hamuera 12 >

1 Na ka tonoa a Natana e Ihowa ki a Rawiri: a ka tae atu ia ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, Tokorua nga tangata i te pa kotahi; he taonga o tetahi, he rawakore tetahi.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻa Natani kia Tevita. Pea naʻa ne haʻu kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “Naʻe ai ʻae ongo tangata ʻe toko ua, ʻi he kolo pe taha: naʻe koloaʻia ʻae tokotaha kae masiva ʻae tokotaha.
2 He tini noa iho nga hipi, nga kau a te tangata taonga:
Naʻe maʻu ʻe he koloaʻia ʻae fanga manu siʻi mo e fanga manu lalahi ʻo lahi ʻaupito:
3 Hore rawa ia he mea a te rawakore; heoi ano he reme uha kotahi nei, he mea nohinohi nana i hoki mai i whangai haere; a i tupu tahi ake ratou me ana tamariki: i kai tana ake taro, i inu hoki i roto i tana ake kapu, i takoto ki tona uma; a i rite t onu he tamahine ki a ia.
Ka naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi he tangata masiva, ka ko e kihiʻi lami fefine pe taha, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatau pea pusiaki: pea naʻe tupu hake ia mo ia pea mo ʻene fānau; pea naʻe kai ia ʻi heʻene meʻakai ʻaʻana, pea ne inu mei heʻene ipu ʻaʻana, pea naʻe tokoto ia ki hono fatafata, pea naʻe tatau ia kiate ia mo ha ʻofefine.
4 Na ka tea he pahi ki te tangata taonga, a ka manawapa tera ki te tango i tetahi o ana hipi, o ana kau, kia taka ma te manuhuri i haere mai ki a ia; heoi tangohia ana e ia te reme a te tangata rawakore, taka ana e ia ma te tangata i haere nei ki a ia.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata fononga ki he tangata koloaʻia, pea naʻa ne mamae ke fili mei heʻene fanga manu siʻi ʻaʻana, mo ʻene fanga manu lalahi, ke teuteu ia maʻae tangata fononga ʻaia naʻe haʻu kiate ia; ka naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae lami ʻae tangata masiva, ʻo ne teuteuʻi ia maʻae tangata ʻaia naʻe haʻu kiate ia.”
5 Ko te tino muranga o te riri o Rawiri ki taua tangata, ka mea ki a Natana, E ora ana a Ihowa, e tika ana kia mate te tangata nana tenei mahi.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻo vela lahi ʻae houhau ʻa Tevita ki he tangata; pea naʻa ne pehē kia Netane, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, ʻoku totonu ke mate ʻae tangata ʻaia kuo fai ʻae meʻa ni:
6 Ko te reme hoki, kia wha ana e hoatu ai hei utu; mona i mea i tenei mea, mona hoki kihai i aroha.
Pea ʻe totongi ia ʻae lami ke liunga fā, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fai ʻae meʻa ni, pea koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ʻiate ia ha angaʻofa.”
7 Na ka mea a Natana ki a Rawiri, Ko taua tangata ra, ko koe. Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Naku koe i whakawahi hei kingi mo Iharaira, naku hoki koe i whakaora i te ringa o Haora;
Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe Netane kia Tevita, “Ko koe ʻae tangata ko ia. ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻaku pani lolo koe ke ke tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli, pea naʻaku fakamoʻui koe mei he nima ʻo Saula;
8 A hoatu ana e ahau te whare o tou ariki ki a koe, me nga wahine a tou ariki ki tou uma: i hoatu ano e ahau te whare o Iharaira raua ko Hura ki a koe; a mehemea i iti tenei, kua tapiritia atu e ahau mau era atu mea ano.
Pea naʻaku tuku kiate koe ʻae fale ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki, pea u tuku ki ho fatafata ʻae ngaahi uaifi ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki, pea u ʻatu kiate koe ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli pea mo Siuta; pea ka ne siʻi ia, pehē te u foaki kiate koe mo e ngaahi meʻa kehekehe.
9 He aha koe i whakahawea ai ki te kupu a Ihowa? i mea ai i tenei kino i tana tirohanga? Ko Uria Hiti i patua e koe ki te hoari, a tangohia ana tana wahine hei wahine mau; ko ia hoki tukitukia ana e koe ki te hoari a nga tama a Amona.
Ka ko e hā kuo ke paetaku ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova, ke fai ʻae kovi ʻi hono ʻao? Kuo ke tāmateʻi ʻa ʻUlia ko e tangata Heti ʻi he heletā, pea kuo ke ʻomi ʻa hono uaifi ke mali mo koe, pea kuo ke tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
10 Na reira e kore te hoari e whakakorea atu aianei i roto i tou whare a ake ake, mou i whakahawea ki ahau, i tango hoki i te wahine a Uria Hiti hei wahine mau.
Pea ko eni foki, ʻe ʻikai mahuʻi ʻae heletā mei ho fale ʻo taʻengata; koeʻuhi kuo ke manuki kiate au, pea kuo ke ʻomi ʻae uaifi ʻo ʻUlia ko e tangata Heti, ke hoko ko ho uaifi.
11 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka whakaara ahau i te kino mou i roto i tou whare, a ka tango i au wahine i tau tirohanga, ka hoatu ki tou hoa, na ka takotoria e ia au wahine i te tirohanga a te ra i runga nei.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, te u fakatupu hake ʻae kovi kiate koe mei ho fale pe ʻoʻou, pea te u toʻo atu mei ho ʻao ʻa ho ngaahi uaifi, ʻo ʻatu ʻakinautolu ki ho kaungāʻapi, pea ʻe mohe ia mo ho ngaahi uaifi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā ni.
12 I meatia pukutia hoki tenei mea e koe: ko ahau ia ka mea i tenei mea ki mua i a Iharaira katoa, ki mua ano i te ra.
He naʻa ke fai fufū ia ʻe koe ka te u fai ʻeau ʻae meʻa ni ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli kātoa, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā.’”
13 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Natana, Kua hara ahau ki a Ihowa. A ka mea a Natana ki a Rawiri, Kua kauparea atu ano tou hara e Ihowa; e kore koe e mate.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia Natani, “Kuo u fai ʻae angahala kia Sihova.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Netane kia Tevita, “Kuo ʻave foki ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo angahala; ʻe ʻikai te ke mate.
14 Otira, i te mea na tenei mahi au i whai take nui ai nga hoariri o Ihowa ki te kohukohu, he pono ka mate te tamaiti ka whanau nei ki a koe.
Ka ko eni, koeʻuhi kuo ke tuku ha tuʻunga ʻi he meʻa ni ke lauʻikovi ai ʻa Sihova ʻe hono ngaahi fili, ʻe mate moʻoni ʻae tamasiʻi kuo fanauʻi kiate koe.”
15 Na haere ana a Natana ki tona whare. A ka pakia e Ihowa te tamaiti a Rawiri i whanau nei i te wahine a Uria: he nui hoki te mate.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Netane ki hono fale. Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae tamasiʻi ʻaia naʻe fānau ʻe he uaifi ʻo ʻUlia kia Tevita, pea naʻe mahaki lahi ia.
16 Na ka inoi a Rawiri ki te Atua mo te tamaiti; a nohopuku ana a Rawiri, haere ana ki roto, pau noa taua po e takoto ana i te whenua.
Ko ia naʻe kole ai ʻa Tevita ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko e tamasiʻi; pea naʻe fai ʻae ʻaukai ʻe Tevita, pea ne ʻalu ʻo tokoto ki he funga kelekele ʻi he pō ʻo ʻaho.
17 Na ka whakatika nga kaumatua o tona whare ki a ia, ki te whakaara i a ia i te whenua: heoi kihai ia i pai, kihai hoki i kai tahi i ta ratou taro.
Pea naʻe tutuʻu hake ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo hono fale kiate ia, ke hiki hake ia mei he kelekele: ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ki ai, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kai ha meʻa mo kinautolu.
18 Na i te whitu o nga ra ka mate te tamaiti. A ka wehi nga tangata a Rawiri ki te mea ki a ia kua mate te tamaiti: i mea hoki ratou, Na i te mea e ora ana te tamaiti, i korero tatou ki a ia, a kihai ia i whakarongo ki to tatou reo: na, tera noa ak e te kino e mea ai ia ki a ia ano ki te korerotia e tatou ki a ia te matenga o te tamaiti.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe pekia ʻae tamasiʻi ki hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho. Pea naʻe manavahē ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Tevita ke tala kiate ia kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi: he naʻa nau pehē, “Vakai, ʻi heʻene kei moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻa mau lea kiate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai fie tokanga ia ki homau leʻo: kae huanoa ʻa ʻene fakamamahi ia, ʻo kapau te mau tala kiate ia kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi?”
19 Otiia i kite a Rawiri i ana tangata e kowhetewhete ana ki a ratou ano, a ka mohio a Rawiri ki ana tangata, Kua mate ranei te tamaiti? A ka mea ratou, Kua mate.
Ka ʻi heʻene mamata ʻa Tevita ki he fefanafanahi ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, naʻe ʻilo ai ʻe Tevita kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi; ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Tevita ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Kuo pekia ʻae tamasiʻi?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Kuo pekia.”
20 Katahi a Rawiri ka whakatika i te whenua, ka horoi i a ia, ka whakawahi i a ia, ka tango i etahi kakahu ke mona; a haere ana ki te whare o Ihowa ki te koropiko. Katahi ka haere ia ki tona whare. Na ka tonoa e ia, a ka whakatakotoria he taro mana, a kai ana ia.
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻa Tevita mei he kelekele, pea ne kaukau mo tākai ia, pea naʻa ne fetongi hono kofu, pea naʻe haʻu ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea fai ʻene hū: pea hili ia naʻa ne haʻu ki hono fale ʻoʻona; pea ʻi he fai ʻene fekau, naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae meʻakai ki hono ʻao, pea naʻa ne kai.
21 Katahi ka mea ana tangata ki a ia, He aha tenei mea i mea nei koe? I nohopuku koe, i tangi ki te tamaiti i a ia e ora ana: no te matenga ia o te tamaiti, na whakatika ana koe ki te kai taro.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ko eni ʻaia kuo ke fai? Naʻa ke ʻaukai mo tangi koeʻuhi ko e tamasiʻi ʻi heʻene kei moʻui; ka ʻi heʻene pekia ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻa ke tuʻu hake mo ke kai ʻae meʻakai.”
22 Ano ra ko ia, I te tamaiti e ora ana ano, i nohopuku ahau, i tangi: i mea hoki, Ko wai ka tohu, tera pea a Ihowa ka aroha ki ahau, a ka ora te tamaiti?
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “Lolotonga ʻae kei moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻaku ʻaukai mo tangi: he naʻaku pehē, Ko hai ʻoku ʻilo, naʻa ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua kiate au, koeʻuhi ke moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi?
23 Ko tenei, ka mate nei ia, kia nohopuku ahau hei aha? E taea ranei ia e ahau te whakahoki mai? Ko ahau e haere ki a ia, e kore ia e hoki mai ki ahau.
Ka ko eni kuo ne mate, pea ko e ʻumaʻā ʻeku ʻaukai? He te u faʻa fai ke toe omi ia? Te u ʻalu atu kiate ia ka e ʻikai toe haʻu ia kiate au.
24 Na ka whakamarie a Rawiri i tana wahine, i a Patehepa, a haere ana ki roto, ki a ia, a takoto tahi ana raua; a ka whanau ano ia, he tama, huaina iho tona ingoa ko Horomona; i arohaina ia e Ihowa;
Pea naʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Tevita ʻa hono uaifi ko Patisepa, pea naʻa ne ʻalu ange kiate ia, mo ne mohe mo ia: pea naʻa ne fanauʻi ʻae tama tangata, pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko Solomone pea naʻe ʻofeina ia ʻe Sihova.
25 I tono hoki ia na te ringa o Natana poropiti, a nana i hua tona ingoa ko Teriria; he whakaaro hoki ki a Ihowa.
Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate ia ia Netane ko e palōfita; pea naʻa ne fakahingoa ia ko Sitaia, koeʻuhi ko Sihova.
26 A, i whawhai ano a Ioapa ki Rapa o nga tamariki a Amona; a horo ana i a ia te pa kingi.
Pea naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻe Soape ki Lapa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo ne kapasi ʻae kolo ʻoe tuʻi.
27 Na ka tono tangata a Ioapa ki a Rawiri, ka mea, Kua tauria a Rapa e ahau, ae ra, kua horo i ahau te pa o nga wai.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Soape ʻae kau talafekau kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u tau ki Lapa, pea kuo kapasi ʻae kolo ʻoe ngaahi vai.
28 Na, tena, huihuia te nuinga o te iwi ki te whakapae i te pa, kia riro ai i a koe: kei riro mai te pa i ahau, a noku te ingoa e huaina ki reira.
Ko ia foki, tānaki mai ʻae toenga ʻoe kakai, pea fakanofo ʻae tau ki he kolo, pea lavaʻi ia: telia naʻaku lavaʻi ʻeau ʻae kolo, pea ʻe fakahingoa ia ki hoku hingoa ʻoʻoku.”
29 Na huihuia ana te iwi katoa e Rawiri, a haere ana ki Rapa; na tauria ana a reira e ia, a riro ana i a ia.
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Tevita ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea ne ʻalu ki Lapa, pea ne tau ki ai, ʻo ne hamu ia.
30 Tangohia ana e ia te karauna o to ratou kingi i tona matenga, ko tona taimaha kotahi taranata koura, a i roto nga kohatu utu nui; a potaea iho ki te matenga o Rawiri. A i whakaputaina e ia nga taonga o te pa, tona tini.
Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae tatā fakatuʻi mei he fofonga ʻo honau tuʻi, ko hono mamafa ko e taleniti ʻe taha ʻoe koula fakataha mo hono ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea naʻe ʻai ia ki he fofonga ʻo Tevita. Pea naʻa ne fetuku kituʻa ʻae koloa vete ʻoe kolo ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
31 Na, ko nga tangata i roto, whakaputaina ana e ia ki waho, a whakamahia ana ki nga kani, ki nga harou rino, ki nga toki rino; i meinga ano ratou kia tika na roto i te tahunga pereki. Ko tana hoki tenei i mea ai ki nga pa katoa o nga tamariki a Am ona. Na hoki ana a Rawiri te iwi katoa ki Hiruharama.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻae kakai naʻe ʻi ai, ʻo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ki he lalo kili, pea ki lalo ʻi he ngaahi meʻa toho vangavanga naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻaione, pea ki lalo ʻi he ngaahi toki ukamea, pea naʻa ne pule kenau ʻalu atu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe tutuʻanga makaʻumea: pea naʻe pehē pe ʻa ʻene fai ki he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni. Pea naʻe liu mai ki Selūsalema ʻa Tevita pea mo e kakai kotoa pē.
