Ehekiera 8
1 Na i te ono o nga tau, i te ono o nga marama, i te rima o nga ra o te marama, e noho ana ahau i roto i toku whare, me te noho ano nga kaumatua o Hura i toku aroaro, na ka tau iho te ringa o te Ariki, o Ihowa, ki runga ki ahau i reira.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻi hono ono ʻoe taʻu, mo hono ono ʻoe māhina, pea ʻi hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ʻi he māhina, naʻaku nofo ʻi hoku fale, pea naʻe nofo ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo Siuta, ne hoko mai kiate au ʻae nima ʻoe ʻOtua ko Sihova.
2 Na ka titiro atu ahau, nana, ko tetahi ahua me te mea he ahi ki te titiro atu; i tona hope a whakararo, he ahi ki te titiro atu; i tona hope ano a whakarunga, he wherikotanga ki te titiro atu, he mea rite te kara ki to te amipere.
Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, ko e meʻa ʻoku tatau mo e afi: ko e hā mai ʻa hono kongaloto ʻo fai ki lalo ko e afi; pea mei hono kongaloto ʻo fai ki ʻolunga naʻe ha ngingila, ʻo hangē ko e lanu ʻoe ʻamipa.
3 Na ka totoro mai te ahua o te ringa, a hopukia ana ahau e ia i tetahi o nga makawe o toku matenga: katahi ahau ka hapainga atu e te wairua ki waenganui o te whenua, o te rangi, a kawea ana ahau e ia ki Hiruharama, he whakakitenga hoki na te Atua, ki te kuwaha o te keti o to roto marae e anga ana ki te raki; kei reira nei te nohoanga o te whakapakoko o te hae, e puta ai te hae.
Pea naʻe ʻai mai ʻae tatau ʻo ha nima, ʻo ne puke au ʻi hoku louʻulu; pea hiki au ʻe he laumālie ki he vahaʻa ʻo māmani pea mo e langi, ʻo ne ʻomi au ʻi he meʻa hā mai ʻae ʻOtua ki Selūsalema, ki he matapā ʻoe kātupa ki loto ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki he tokelau; ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ʻae nofoʻanga ʻoe fakatātā ki he fuaʻa, ʻaia ʻoku fakatupu ʻae fuaʻa.
4 Na i reira ano te kororia o te Atua o Iharaira, he pera me te kitenga i kitea e ahau ki te mania.
Pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae nāunau ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo tatau mo ʻene hā mai naʻaku mamata ai ʻi he teleʻa.
5 Katahi ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, tena ra, anga atu ou kanohi ra te ara ki te raki. Heoi ka anga oku kanohi ra te ara ki te raki, nana, i te taha ki te raki, i te kuwaha o te aata, ko tenei whakapakoko o te hae i te tomokanga atu.
Pea ne toki pehē kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, hanga hake eni ho mata ki he potu fakatokelau.” Ko ia naʻaku fakahanga hoku mata ki he potu tokelau, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakatātā ʻoe fuaʻa ʻi hono potu fakatokelau ʻoe matapā ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, ʻi hono hūʻanga.
6 A ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ka kite ranei koe i ta ratou e mea nei? ara i nga mea whakarihariha nui e mahia nei e te whare o Iharaira ki konei, e matara ai ahau i toku wahi tapu? otiia tera koe e kite ano i etahi atu mea whakarih ariha nunui.
Naʻa ne pehē foki kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻOku ke mamata ki he meʻa ʻoku nau fai? ʻIo, ʻae ngaahi fakalielia lahi ʻoku fai ʻi heni ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu mamaʻo atu mei hoku potu toputapu? Ka ke toe tangaki hake, pea te ke sio ki he ngaahi fakalielia ʻoku lahi hake.”
7 Na ka kawea ahau e ia ki te kuwaha o te marae; a, no taku tirohanga atu, nana, ko tetahi puta i te taiepa.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he matapā ʻoe lotoʻā; pea ʻi heʻeku sio, vakai ko e ava naʻe ʻi he ʻā.
8 Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, tena, keria te taiepa; a, i taku keringa i te taiepa, na ko tetahi kuwaha.
Pea ne pehē kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke keli ʻi he ʻā: pea ʻi heʻeku keli ʻi he ʻā, vakai ko e matapā.”
9 A ka mea tera ki ahau, Haere ki roto, kia kite ai koe i nga mea whakarihariha, i nga mea kino e mahia nei e ratou ki konei.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate au, “Hū atu mo mamata ki he ngaahi kovi fakalielia ʻoku nau fai ʻi heni.”
10 Heoi haere ana ahau ki roto, a ka kite; na, ko nga ahua katoa o nga mea ngokingoki, o nga kararehe whakarihariha, me nga whakapakoko katoa o te whare o Iharaira, he mea tuhituhi ki te taha o te whare a taka noa, taka noa.
Ko ia naʻaku hū ki ai ʻo mamata; pea vakai naʻe tohi takatakai ki he holisi fale ʻae fakatātā ki he anga ʻoe meʻa totolo kotoa pē, mo e fanga manu fakalielia, pea mo e ngaahi tamapua kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli.
11 A i o ratou aroaro e tu ana e whitu tekau nga tangata, no nga kaumatua o te whare o Iharaira, a i waenganui o ratou e tu ana ko Iaatania tama a Hapana, he tahu whakakakara i te ringa o tenei, o tenei; a i kake whakarunga te kakara o te kapua o t e whakakakara.
Pea tutuʻu ʻi honau ʻao ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungofulu ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ʻi honau haʻohaʻonga naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Sesania ko e foha ʻo Safani, pea taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene ʻaiʻanga afi ʻi hono nima; pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae ʻao matolu ʻoe meʻa namu kakala.
12 Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, Kua kite ranei koe, e te tama a te tangata, i ta nga kaumatua o te whare o Iharaira e mea nei i te pouri, ia tangata, ia tangata, i ona whare whakaahua? e ki ana hoki ratou, E kore a Ihowa e kite i a tatou; kua mahue te whenua i a Ihowa.
Pea naʻa ne toki pehē kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, kuo ke mamata ki he meʻa ʻoku fai ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻe he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ʻi he ʻana ʻo ʻene meʻa fakatātā? He ʻoku nau pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai mamata ʻa Sihova kiate kitautolu; kuo siʻaki ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa māmani.’”
13 I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Tera koe e kite ano i etahi atu mea whakarihariha nunui e mahia ana e ratou.
Naʻa ne pehē foki kiate au, “Toe tangaki hake koe, pea te ke mamata ki heʻenau fai ʻae ngaahi fakalielia ʻoku lahi hake.”
14 Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki te kuwaha o te keti o te whare o Ihowa, e anga ana whaka te raki; na ko nga wahine e noho ana i reira, e tangi ana ki a Tamutu.
Pea naʻe toki ʻave au ki he matapā ʻoe hūʻanga ki he fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ki he tokelau: pea vakai, naʻe nofo ai ʻae kau fefine ʻoku tangi koeʻuhi ko Temuse.
15 Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, Ka kite ranei koe i tenei, e te tama a te tangata? Tera koe e kite ano i etahi mea whakarihariha nunui atu i enei.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate au, “Kuo ke mamata ʻa eni, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata? Toe tangaki hake pea te ke sio ki he ngaahi fakalielia ʻoku lahi hake ʻi he meʻa ni.”
16 Na ka kawea ahau e ia ki to roto marae o te whare o Ihowa; nana, i te kuwaha o te temepara o Ihowa, i te takiwa o te whakamahau, o te aata, ko etahi tangata, ki te whakaaro iho e rua tekau ma rima, ko o ratou tuara e anga ana ki te temepara o Ih owa, ko o ratou mata ki te rawhiti; e koropiko ana ratou ki te ra whaka te rawhiti.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he lotoʻā ki loto, ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi he matapā ʻoe falelotu lahi ʻo Sihova ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe hūʻanga mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko uofulu ma toko nima naʻe fulituʻa ki he falelotu lahi ʻo Sihova, kae hanga honau mata ki he potu hahake; pea naʻa nau hū ki he laʻā ki he potu hahake.
17 Katahi ka mea ia ki ahau, Ka kite ranei koe i tenei, e te tama a te tangata? He mea mama noa ake ianei tenei ki te whare o Hura kia mahia e ratou nga mea whakarihariha e mahia nei e ratou ki konei? na ratou hoki i kapi ai te whenua i te tutu, a hoki mai ana ratou ki te whakapataritari i ahau: nana, kei te whakapa ano ratou i te manga ki to ratou ihu.
Pea naʻa ne pehē ai kiate au, “Kuo ke mamata ki he meʻa ni, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata? Ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa koā ki he fale ʻo Siuta ke nau fai ʻae ngaahi fakalielia ʻoku nau fai ʻi heni? He kuo nau fakafonu ʻae fonua ʻi he fakamālohi, mo nau tafoki ke fakatupu ʻeku houhau: pea vakai ʻoku nau ʻai ʻae vaʻa ki honau ihu.
18 Na ka mahi ano ahau i runga i te weriweri; e kore toku kanohi e manawapa, e kore ano ahau e tohu; ahakoa nui to ratou reo e karanga ai ki oku taringa, e kore ahau e rongo ki a ratou.
Ko ia foki te u ngāueʻaki ʻeau ʻae houhau lahi: ʻe ʻikai mamae ʻa hoku mata, pea ʻe ʻikai te u manavaʻofa: pea neongo ʻenau tangi ʻi hoku telinga ʻi he leʻo lahi, ʻe ʻikai te u fanongo kiate kinautolu.”
