Kaikauwhau 9
1 Na ko tenei katoa he mea whakaaro na toku ngakau, ara kia ata tirotirohia tenei katoa; ko te hunga tika, ko te hunga whakaaro nui, me a ratou mahi, kei roto i te ringa o te Atua: e kore te tangata e mohio he aroha ranei, he kino ranei; kei to rat ou aroaro nga mea katoa.
He naʻaku tokanga ʻi hoku loto ki he meʻa ni kotoa pē ke u fakahā kotoa pē ia, ʻoku ʻi he nima ʻoe ʻOtua ʻae māʻoniʻoni, mo e poto, pea mo ʻenau ngāue: ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he tangata pe ko e ʻofeina ia pe ko e fehiʻanekina ʻi he meʻa ʻoku hoko mai kiate ia.
2 He rite tonu te panga mai o nga mea katoa ki nga tangata katoa; kotahi tonu te mea e pa ana ki te tangata tika, ki te tangata kino; ki te pai, ki te ma, ki te poke; ki te tangata i te patunga tapu, ki te tangata kahore nei ana patunga tapu: ko te tangata pai rite tonu ki te tangata hara, ko te tangata e oati ana, ki te tangata e wehi ana i te oati.
He ʻoku hoko tatau ʻae meʻa fulipē ki he kakai kotoa pē: ko e meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku hoko ki he māʻoniʻoni mo e angahala; ki he angalelei mo ia kuo fakamaʻa, pea ki he taʻemaʻa; kiate ia ʻoku feilaulau, mo ia ʻoku ʻikai fai ha feilaulau: ʻoku hangē ko ia ʻoku angalelei, ʻoku pehē ʻaia ʻoku angahala, pea ko ia ʻoku fuakava, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku manavahē ki he fuakava.
3 He he tenei i roto i nga mea katoa e meatia ana i raro i te ra, kotahi tonu te mea e pa ana ki te katoa; ko te ngakau ano hoki o nga tama a te tangata ki tonu i te kino; kei roto hoki te haurangi i o ratou ngakau i a ratou e ora ana; a muri iho k a riro ratou ki nga tupapaku.
Ko e kovi eni ʻe taha ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku fai ʻi he lalo laʻā, ʻae hoko tatau ʻae meʻa ki he kakai kotoa pē: ʻio, ʻoku fonu ʻi he kovi ʻae loto ʻoe fānau ʻae tangata, ʻoku ʻi honau loto ʻae vale ʻi heʻenau kei moʻui, pea hili ia ʻoku nau ʻalu ki he mate.
4 Ko te tangata hoki e tuhono ana ki te hunga ora katoa ka whai tumanakohanga: pai atu hoki te kuri ora i te raiona mate.
He ʻoku ai ʻae ʻamanaki lelei kiate ia ʻoku kei kau ki he moʻui: he ʻoku lelei hake ʻae kulī ʻoku moʻui ʻi ha laione kuo mate.
5 E mohio ana hoki te hunga ora tera ratou e mate: ko nga tupapaku ia, kahore o ratou mohio ki tetahi mea, kahore ake hoki he utu i a ratou; ka warewaretia hoki te mahara ki a ratou.
He ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he kakai moʻui te nau mate: ka ʻoku ʻikai siʻi ʻilo ha meʻa ʻe he mate, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau kei maʻu ha totongi: he kuo ngalo ʻa honau fakamanatu.
6 Ko to ratou aroha hoki, ko to ratou riri, ko to ratou hae, kua kore noa ake; kahore hoki he wahi i a ratou a ake ake, o nga mea katoa e meatia ana i raro i te ra.
Pea ko ʻenau ʻofa, mo ʻenau fehiʻa, mo ʻenau meheka, kuo ʻosi ia; pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau kei maʻu honau tufakanga ʻi ha meʻa ʻoku fai ʻi he lalo laʻā ʻo taʻengata.
7 Haere, kainga tau kai i runga i te hari, inumia hoki tau waina i runga i te ngakau hari; no te mea kua manako noa ke te Atua ki au mahi.
ʻAlu koe ʻi ho hala, pea kai hoʻo mā ʻi he fiefia, pea inu hoʻo uaine ʻi he loto fiemālie; he kuo maʻu ʻe he ʻOtua hoʻo ngaahi ngāue.
8 I nga wa katoa kia ma ou kakahu: kaua hoki e whakakahoretia te hinu mo tou mahunga.
Ke hinehina maʻuaipē ho ngaahi kofu; pea ʻoua naʻa masiva ho ʻulu ʻi he pani.
9 Kia ora tou ngakau i tou hoa wahine e aroha na koe i nga ra katoa o tou oranga horihori, i homai nei ki a koe i raro i te ra, i nga ra katoa o tou horihori: ko te wahi hoki tena mou i tenei ao, i tou mauiui ano hoki e mauiui na koe i raro i te ra.
Ke ke moʻui fiefia mo ho uaifi, ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻofa ai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui vaʻinga, ʻaia kuo ne foaki kiate koe ʻi he lalo laʻā, ʻae ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo vaʻinga: he ko ho ʻinasi ia ʻi he moʻui ni, mo e ngāue kuo ke fai ʻi he lalo laʻā.
10 Ko nga mea katoa e kitea e tou ringa kia mahia, kia puta tou uaua ki te mahi; kahore hoki he mahi, kahore he tikanga, kahore he matauranga, kahore he whakaaro nui i te reinga, i te wahi ka haere atu na koe ki reira. (Sheol h7585)
Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻilo ʻe ho nima ke fai, fai ia ʻaki ho mālohi kotoa pē; he ʻoku ʻikai ha ngāue, pe ha filioʻi, pe ha ʻilo, pe ha poto ʻi he faʻitoka, ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai. (Sheol h7585)
11 I hoki ahau, a i kite ahau i raro i te ra, ehara i te mea ko te hunga tere e puta i te oma, ko te hunga marohirohi ranei e toa i te pakanga, ko te hunga whakaaro nui ranei e whiwhi i te taro, ko te hunga mohio ranei e whiwhi i te taonga, ko te h unga tohunga ranei e manakohia, engari na te wa, na te tupono noa, i homai ki a ratou katoa.
Naʻaku tafoki mai, pea u mamata ʻi he lalo laʻā, ko e pue ʻoku ʻikai kiate ia ʻoku veʻe vave, pe ko e tau kiate ia ʻoku mālohi, pe ko e meʻakai kiate ia ʻoku poto, pe ko e koloa ki he kakai ʻoku faʻa fakakaukau, pe ko e ongoongolelei ki he kakai poto; he ʻoku maʻu taki taha kotoa pē hono ʻaho mo hono tuʻutuʻuni.
12 Kahore hoki te tangata e mohio ki te wa mona: he rite ki nga ika e haoa ana ki te kupenga nanakia, ki nga manu hoki e mau ana i te mahanga, he pera ano hoki nga tama a te tangata, e mahangatia ana i te wa whakarihariha, ina puta whakarere mai ki a ratou.
He ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo foki ʻe he tangata ʻa hono ʻaho: ʻoku hangē ko e maʻu fakafokifā ʻoe ika ʻi he kupenga, pea hangē ko e maʻu ʻae manupuna ʻi he tauhele; ʻoku pehē ʻae tauheleʻi ʻae fānau ʻae tangata ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe kovi, ʻoka hoko fakafokifā ia kiate kinautolu.
13 I kitea ano e ahau te whakaaro nui penei i raro i te ra, a he mea nui ki ahau:
Ko e poto ni foki kuo u mamata ki ai ʻi he lalo laʻā, pea naʻe matamata lahi ia kiate au.
14 Tera tetahi pa iti, me ona tangata torutoru i roto; na ka haere mai tetahi kingi nui ki te tu i reira, whakapaea ana e ia, hanga ana e ia etahi pourewa nunui hei tatau atu ki reira.
Naʻe ai ʻae kihiʻi kolo, pea tokosiʻi ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻi ai; pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tuʻi lahi ke ne tauʻi ia, pea naʻa ne kāpui ia, pea lahi ʻaupito ʻa ʻene tanu puke ki ai.
15 Na i kitea tetahi tangata rawakore, whakaaro nui, i roto, a nana, na tona whakaaro nui, ka ora te pa; otiia kihai tetahi tangata i mahara ki taua tangata rawakore.
Ka ko eni, naʻe ʻilo ʻi ai ʻae tangata masiva mo poto, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene poto naʻe hao ai ʻae kolo; ka naʻe ʻikai manatuʻi ʻe ha tokotaha ʻae tangata masiva ko ia.
16 Na ko taku kianga ake, Engari rawa te whakaaro nui i te kaha: heoi whakahaweatia iho nga whakaaro nui o te rawakore, kihai hoki ana kupu i whakarangona.
Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai, ʻOku lelei hake ʻae poto ʻi he mālohi; ka ʻoku manukiʻi ʻae poto ʻoe tangata masiva, pea ʻoku ʻikai ongoʻi ʻene ngaahi lea.
17 Ko nga kupu a te hunga whakaaro nui, he mea ata korero, e rangona nuitia ake ana i te hamama a te rangatira o nga wairangi.
ʻOku ongo lahi mai ʻae fanafana ʻae poto ʻi he kalanga ʻo ia ʻoku pule ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe vale.
18 Pai ake te whakaaro nui i nga rakau o te riri: otiia kotahi noa te tangata hara, he nui tana pai e takakino ai.
ʻOku lelei hake ʻae poto ʻi he mahafutau: ka ʻoku maumauʻi ʻe he angahala ʻe tokotaha ʻae lelei lahi.
