Kenehi 40
1 Na, i muri i enei mea ka hara te kaiwhakainu a te kingi o Ihipa, raua ko tana kaihanga taro, ki to raua ariki, ki te kingi o Ihipa.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, naʻa na fakaʻitaʻi hona ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite.
2 A ka riri a Parao ki ana kaitohutohu tokorua, ki te tino kaiwhakainu raua ko te tino kaihanga taro.
Pea tuputāmaki ʻa Felo ki heʻene ongo matāpule, ʻio, ki he matāpule ʻoe kau tauhi, mo e matāpule ʻoe kau taʻo mā.
3 Na ka homai raua e ia kia puritia ki te whare o te rangatira o nga kaitiaki, ki te whare herehere, ki te wahi i herea ai a Hohepa.
Pea ne tuku ʻakinaua ke pōpula ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, ki he fale fakapōpula, ko e potu ko ia naʻe nofo haʻisia ai ʻa Siosefa.
4 A ka meinga a Hohepa e te rangatira o nga kaitiaki hei kaititiro mo raua, a ka mahi ia ki a raua; a ka puritia raua i etahi ra.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻakinaua ʻe he matāpule ʻoe kau leʻo, kia Siosefa ke ne leʻohi, pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ʻakinaua: pea ne na nofo ʻi he fale fakapōpula ʻo fuoloa siʻi pe.
5 Na ka moe raua i a raua moe, kotahi ano te po i moemoea ai raua, tetahi, tetahi, me te tikanga ano o tana moe, te kaiwhakainu rau ko te kaihanga taro a te kingi o Ihipa, i herea nei raua i roto i te whare herehere.
Pea ne na misi fakatouʻosi ʻae misi, taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene misi ʻi he pō pe taha, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau mo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene misi, ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe nofo haʻisia ʻi he fale fakapōpula.
6 A, i te taenga o hohepa ki a raua i te ata, ka titiro ia ki a raua, na e pouri ana raua.
Pea ʻalu ange ʻa Siosefa kiate kinaua ʻi he pongipongi, pea sio ia kiate kinaua, pea vakai, naʻa na matapeko.
7 Na ka ui ia ki aua kaitohutohu a Parao, i puritia tahitia nei me ia i te whare o tona ariki, ka mea, He aha i whakapoururu ai o korua kanohi inaianei?
Pea fehuʻi ia ki he ongo matāpule ʻa Felo, ʻakinaua naʻe pōpula mo ia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku mo matapeko ai he ʻaho ni?”
8 A ka mea raua ki a ia, I moe maua i tetahi moe, a kahore he kaiwhakaatu i tona tikanga. Na ka mea a Hohepa ki a raua, Ehara ianei te Atua i te kaiwhakaatu? tena, korerotia mai ki ahau.
Pea na pehē kiate ia, “Kuo ma misi ʻae misi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakahā hono ʻuhinga.” Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinaua, “ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua pe hono ʻuhinga? ʻOku ou kole mo fakahā mai ia kiate au.”
9 Na ka korerotia e te tino kaiwhakainu tana moe ki a Hohepa, a ka mea ki a ia, Moe iho ahau, na, ko tetahi waina i toku aroaro:
Pea tala ʻe he tauhi lahi ʻene misi kia Siosefa, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia; “Vakai, ʻi heʻeku misi, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae vaine;
10 Na e toru nga peka o te waina; a e ahua pihi ana, a ka kohera ona puawai; a e hua ana nga tautau, maoa tonu nga karepe:
pea naʻe ʻi he vaine ʻae vaʻa ʻe tolu pea hangē naʻe litolito ia, pea tupu hono fisi; pea naʻe tupu ʻi hono ngaahi fuhi ʻae kālepi momoho:
11 Na ko te kapu a Parao i toku ringa: a ka mau ahau ki nga karepe, a tauia ana e ahau ki te kapu a Parao, a hoatu ana e ahau te kapu ki te ringa o Parao.
pea naʻe ʻi hoku nima ʻae ipu ʻa Felo pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae ngaahi kālepi, ʻo tatau ia ki he ipu ʻa Felo, pea ne u ʻatu ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo.”
12 Na ko te meatanga a Hohepa ki a ia, Ko tona tikanga tenei: ko aua peka e toru, e toru nga ra:
Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa kiate ia, “Ko hono ʻuhinga eni; Ko e vaʻa ʻe tolu, ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
13 Kia toru ake ra ka whakaara ake ai a Parao i tou matenga, ka whakahoki ano i a koe ki tau mahi, a ka hoatu ano e koe te kapu a Parao ki tona ringa, ka pera hoki me mua, i te mea ko koe tana kairiringi waina.
ʻI he teʻeki ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hakeakiʻi Ko e ʻe Felo, ʻo ne toe tuku koe ki hoʻo ngāue: pea te ke ʻatu ʻae ipu ʻa Felo ki hono nima, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ke fai ʻi hoʻo kei nofo ko ʻene tauhi lahi.
14 Otira kia mahara ki ahau ina pono te pai ki a koe, kia puta ano tou aroha ki ahau, korerotia hoki ahau ki a Parao, kia puta atu ai ahau i tenei whare:
Ka ʻoka ke ka lelei koe, ke ke manatuʻi au; pea ʻoku ou kole ke ke ʻofa mai kiate au, ʻo tala au kia Felo, pea fakahao au mei he fale ni;
15 I tahaetia putia mai hoki ahau i te whenua o nga Hiperu; a kahore aku mahi i konei i maka ai ahau e ratou ki tenei whare herehere.
He ko e moʻoni naʻe kaihaʻasia au mei he fonua ʻoe kakai Hepelū: pea naʻe ʻikai te u fai ha meʻa ʻi heni foki, koeʻuhi ke nau tuku au ki he fale fakapōpula.”
16 A, ka kite te tino kaihanga taro he pai te tikanga, ka mea ia ki a Hohepa, Moe iho hoki ahau, na, e toru nga kete taro ma i runga i toku upoko:
Pea kuo mamata ʻe he tangata taʻo mā, ʻoku lelei hono ʻuhinga, pea pehē ʻe ia kia Siosefa: “Naʻaku misi foki, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻulu ʻae kato hinehina ʻe tolu;
17 A i to runga kete ko nga tu ahua kai katoa ma Parao na ko nga manu e kai ana i aua mea i roto i te kete i runga i toku upoko.
Pea naʻe ʻi he kato ʻi ʻolunga ʻae ngaahi meʻakai, kuo taʻo kia Felo; pea naʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga manupuna mei he kato, ʻi hoku ʻulu.”
18 Na ka whakahoki a Hohepa, ka mea, Ko tona tikanga tenei: Ko aua kete e toru, e toru nga ra:
Pea lea ʻa Siosefa, ʻo pehē: “Ko hono ʻuhinga, eni: ko e kato ʻe tolu ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
19 Kia toru ake nga ra, ka tangohia ake e Parao tou upoko i runga i a koe, a ka whakairihia koe ki runga ki te rakau; a ka kainga e nga manu ou kikokiko e piri na ki a koe.
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hiki ʻe Felo ho ʻulu meiate koe, pea te ne tautau koe ki he ʻakau; pea ʻe kai ʻe he fanga manupuna, ʻae kakano meiate koe.”
20 A, i te toru o nga ra, i te ra whanau o Parao, na ka tukua e ia he hakari ma ana tangata katoa: a whakaarahia ake ana e ia te matenga o te tino kaiwhakainu, me te matenga o te tino kaihanga taro, i waenganui i ana pononga.
Pea ʻi heʻene hokosia hono ʻaho tolu, ko e ʻaho fakamanatu ki he fanauʻi ʻo Felo, naʻa ne fai ʻae kātoanga ki heʻene kau nofoʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻa ne lau hake ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā, ʻi heʻene kau nofoʻanga.
21 A whakahokia ana e ia te tino kaiwhakainu ki tana mahi whakainu, hei hoatu i te kapu ki te ringa o Parao:
Pea ne toe tuku ki he tauhi lahi ʻa ʻene ngāue: pea toe ʻatu ʻe ia ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo;
22 Ko te tino kaihanga taro ia i whakairihia ake e ia: i peratia me ta Hohepa i whakaatu ai ki a raua.
Ka naʻa ne tautau ʻae tangata taʻo mā; ʻo hangē ko e fakamatala, ʻa Siosefa,
23 Otiia kihai te tino kaiwhakainu i mahara ki a Hohepa; i wareware hoki ki a ia.
Ka naʻe ʻikai manatu ʻe he tauhi lahi kia Siosefa, ka naʻa ne fakangaloʻi ia.
