< Amoho 5 >
1 Whakarongo ki tenei kupu, kua maranga nei i ahau hei tangi ki a koutou, e te whare o Iharaira.
Fanongo ki he lea ni, ʻoku ou ʻai kiate kimoutolu, ʻi he tangilāulau, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli.
2 Kua hinga te wahine a Iharaira; e kore ia e ara i muri: kua whakataka ia ki runga ki tona oneone; kahore he mea hei whakaara ake i a ia.
“Kuo hinga ʻae taʻahine ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe ʻikai te ne toetuʻu; kuo liʻaki ia ʻi hono fonua; ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke toe fokotuʻu ia.”
3 No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ko te pa kotahi nei te mano i te haerenga atu, kotahi rau e toe, a ko tera kotahi nei te rau i te haerenga atu, kotahi tekau e toe ki te whare o Iharaira.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua; “Ko e kolo naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae toko taha afe, ʻe toe pe ʻae toko teau, pea ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae toko teau, ʻe toe pe ʻae toko hongofulu, ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli.
4 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa ki te whare o Iharaira, Rapua ahau, kia ora ai koutou.
Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, “Kumi kiate au, pea te mou moʻui:
5 Otiia kaua e rapu i Peteere, kaua e haere ki Kirikara, kaua ano e haere ki Peerehepa: no te mea tera a Kirikara ka riro i te whakarau, a hei kore noa iho a Peteere.
Kaeʻoua naʻa kumi ʻa Peteli, pe hū ki Kilikali, pea ʻoua naʻa laka ki Peasipa: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻalu moʻoni ʻa Kilikali ke pōpula, pea ʻe hoko ʻa Peteli ko e meʻa noa pē.
6 Rapua a Ihowa, a ka ora koutou; kei toro atu ia, ano he ahi, i roto i te whare o Hohepa, a pau noa, a kore noa iho he kaitinei i roto i Peteere.
Kumi kia Sihova, pea te mou moʻui telia naʻa hā mai ia, hangē ko e afi ʻi he fale ʻo Siosefa, pea ne keina ia, kae ʻikai ha taha ʻi Peteli ke fuʻifuʻi ia.
7 E te hunga i puta ke ai te whakawa hei taru kawa, i taia ai te tika ki te whenua;
Ko kimoutolu ʻoku liliu ʻae fakamaau ko e ʻakau kona, pea mou tuku ʻae angatonu ʻi he fonua,
8 Rapua te kaihanga o matariki, o Tautoru; e riro ke ana i a ia te atarangi o te mate hei ata, e whakapouritia ana e ia te ra hei po; e karangatia ana e ia nga wai o te moana, a ringihia ana e ia ki runga ki te mata o te whenua: ko Ihowa tona ingoa:
[Kumi ia ]naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae fetuʻu ʻe fitu mo ʻOlioni, pea ʻoku ne liliu ʻae ʻata ʻoe mate ko e pongipongi, pea ne ngaohi ʻae ʻaho ke poʻuli ʻi he pō: pea ʻoku ne ui ʻae ngaahi vai ʻoe tahi, pea ne lilingi ia ki he funga ʻoe fonua: ko Sihova hono huafa:
9 Nana i whakaputa ohorere te whakangaromanga ki te hunga kaha, i tae ai te whakangaromanga ki te pa kaha.
ʻOku ne fakamālohi ʻae vetekina ki he mālohi, koeʻuhi ke tauʻi ʻe he vetekina ʻae kolo.
10 E kinongia ana e ratou te kairiri he i te kuwaha, a he mea whakarihariha ki a ratou te tangata korero tika.
ʻOku nau fehiʻa kiate ia ʻoku fai ʻae valoki ʻi he matapā, pea ʻoku nau fākaliliʻa kiate ia ʻoku lea ʻi he angatonu.
11 Na, i te mea he takahi ta koutou i te ware, he tango i te takoha witi i a ia; he whare kohatu tarai ta koutou i hanga ai, na e kore e nohoia e koutou; he mara waina e minaminatia ana ta koutou i whakato ai, otiia e kore te waina o aua mara e inu mia e koutou.
Koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou malakiʻi ʻae kakai masiva, pea ʻoku mou toʻo meiate ia ʻae ngaahi kavenga uite: kuo mou langa ʻae ngaahi fale ʻaki ʻae maka kuo tā, ka ʻe ʻikai te mou nofo ai; kuo mou tō ʻae ngaahi ngoue vaine matamatalelei, ka ʻe ʻikai te mou inu uaine mei ai.
12 E mohiotia ana hoki e ahau te maha o o koutou poka ke, me te kaha o o koutou hara: o koutou, e whakatupu kino nei i te tangata tika, e tango nei i te utu whakapati, e whakangau ke nei i ta te rawakore i te kuwaha.
He ʻoku ou ʻilo hoʻomou ngaahi talangataʻa lahi, pea mo hoʻomou fungani angahala: ʻoku nau fakamamahiʻi ʻae angatonu, ʻoku nau maʻu tukungoue, pea ʻoku nau fakateketeke atu ʻae kakai masiva ʻi he matapā.
13 Mo reira ka whakarongo puku te tangata tupato i taua wa; no te mea he wa kino.
Ko ia ʻe longo ai ʻae fakapotopoto ʻi he kuonga ko ia; he ko e kuonga kovi.
14 Rapua te pai, kauaka hoki te kino, kia ora ai koutou: penei ko Ihowa, ko te Atua o nga mano hei hoa mo koutou, hei pena ano me ta koutou e ki na.
Kumi ʻae lelei, kae ʻikai ko e kovi, koeʻuhi ke mou moʻui: ko ia, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi, te ne ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou lea.
15 Kinongia te kino, arohaina te pai, whakapumautia te whakawa ki te kuwaha: tera pea a Ihowa, te Atua o nga mano, ka aroha ki te toenga o Hohepa.
Fehiʻa ki he kovi, pea ʻofa ki he lelei, pea fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae fakamaau ʻi he matapā; heiʻilo pe ʻe ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ki he toenga ʻo Siosefa.”
16 Mo reira tenei kupu a Ihowa, a te Atua o nga mano, a te Ariki, I nga waharoa katoa ko te tangi; ko ta ratou kupu i nga huarahi katoa, Aue! aue! ka karangatia te kaingaki whenua ki te tangi, me te hunga matau ki te uhunga, hei aue.
Ko ia ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻEiki, ʻoku pehē, “ʻE ʻi ai ʻae tangi ʻi he ngaahi hala kotoa pē; pea te nau pehē ʻi he ngaahi hala motuʻa kotoa pē, ‘ʻOiauē! ʻOiauē!’ Pea te nau ui ʻae tangata ngoue ki he tangi, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku poto ʻi he tangilāulau ke fai ʻae tangi.
17 A he aue i nga mara waina katoa: ka tika atu hoki ahau i waenganui i a koe, e ai ta Ihowa.
Pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangi ʻi he ngoue vaine kotoa pē: he te u laka mai ʻiate koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
18 Aue, te mate mo koutou e hiahia nei ki te ra o Ihowa! Hei aha ma koutou te ra o Ihowa? he pouri hoki, ehara i te marama.
“Malaʻia kiate kimoutolu ʻoku holi ki he ʻaho ʻo Sihova! He koeʻumaʻā ia kiate kimoutolu? Ko e ʻaho ʻo Sihova kuo poʻuli, kae ʻikai maama.
19 Ka pera me te tangata i rere atu i te aroaro o te raiona, a ka tutaki te pea ki a ia; i haere ranei ki roto ki te whare, a okioki atu ana tona ringa ki te pakitara, na ngaua iho ia e te nakahi.
Hangē ko e tangata ʻoku hola mei he laione, pea ʻoku ne fakafetaulaki mo ha pea; pe ko ha taha ne hū ki fale, pea ne faʻaki hono nima ki he holisi, ka naʻe ʻuusi ia ʻe ha ngata.
20 He teka ianei tera e pouri te ra o Ihowa, e kore e marama? tera e pouri kerekere, kahore hoki he marama i roto?
ʻIkai ʻe poʻuli ʻae ʻaho ʻo Sihova, pea ʻikai maama? ʻIo, ko e poʻuli ʻaupito, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha maama siʻi ke ulo?
21 E kino ana ahau, e whakarihariha ana ki a koutou hakari, a e kore ahau e ahuareka ki a koutou huihui nunui.
“ʻOku ou fehiʻa, ʻoku ou fakaliliʻa ki homou ngaahi ʻaho kātoanga, pea ʻe ʻikai te u nanamu ki hoʻomou ngaahi fakataha mamafa.
22 Ae ra, ahakoa whakaeke noa koutou i nga tahunga tinana, i a koutou whakahere totokore ki ahau, e kore e manakohia e ahau: e kore ano e tirohia e ahau nga whakahere mo te pai, ara a koutou mea momona.
Neongo ʻoku mou hifo ʻaki ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu mo e ngaahi feilaulau meʻakai, ʻe ʻikai te u maʻu ia: pea ʻe ʻikai te u tokangaʻi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei ʻo hoʻomou fanga manu sino.
23 Maua atu kia matara i ahau te ngangau o au waiata; e kore hoki ahau e whakarongo ki te rangi o au hatere.
Hiki ke mamaʻo ʻiate au ʻae longoaʻa ʻo hoʻomou hiva; he ʻe ʻikai te u fanongo ki he mālie ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi meʻa faiva.
24 Engari kia huri mai te whakawa ano he wai, te tika ano he awa nui.
Ka ʻe tuku ʻae fakamaau ke tafe hangē ko e vai, pea mo e angatonu hangē ko e vaitafe mālohi.
25 I kawea mai koia e koutou ki ahau he patunga tapu, he whakahere totokore, e te whare o Iharaira, i te koraha, i nga tau e wha tekau?
“Kuo mou hifo ʻaki ʻae ngaahi feilaulau mo e ngaahi hifo kiate au, ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ʻi he toafa, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli?
26 Ae ra, kua maua e koutou a Hikutu, to koutou kingi, a Kiunu hoki, a koutou whakapakoko, te whetu o to koutou atua, i hanga nei e koutou ma koutou.
Ka kuo mou fua ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻo homou Moloke mo Kiuni, ko hoʻomou ongo tamapua, ko e fetuʻu ʻo homou ʻotua, ʻaia naʻa mou ngaohi moʻomoutolu.
27 Na ka whakaraua koutou e ahau ki ko atu i Ramahiku, e ai ta Ihowa nona nei te ingoa, Ko te Atua o nga mano.
Ko ia te u pule ke mou ʻalu pōpula kituʻa Tamasikusi:” ʻoku pehē ʻa Sihova, ʻaia ko hono huafa, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
