Hohea 11
1 I a Iharaira e tamariki ana i aroha ahau ki a ia i reira, a karangatia ana e ahau taku tama i Ihipa.
“ʻI he kei tamasiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ne u ʻofa ki ai, pea ne u ui hoku foha mei ʻIsipite.
2 E karanga ana ratou i a ratou, e haere ke atu ana i a ratou: i patu whakahere ratou ki nga Paarimi, i tahu whakakakara ano ki nga whakapakoko.
ʻI heʻenau ui kiate kinautolu, pehē ne nau ʻalu meiate kinautolu: naʻa nau feilaulau kia Pealimi, pea nau tutu ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ki he ngaahi tamapua kuo tongitongi.
3 Otiia naku a Eparaima i ako ki te haere; i hikitia ratou e ahau ki runga ki oku ringa; heoi kihai ratou i mohio e rongoa ana ahau i a ratou.
Naʻaku akoʻi foki ʻa ʻIfalemi ke ʻalu, ʻi he puke ʻaki honau nima; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ko au naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
4 He taura tangata aku ki te kukume i a ratou, he here aroha: ko taku hoki ki a ratou ko ta te hunga e tango ana i te ioka i o ratou kauae; i hoatu ano e ahau he kai ki mua i a ratou.
Naʻaku toho ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae afo ʻae tangata, ʻaki ʻae noʻo ʻoe ʻofa: pea naʻaku hangē ko ia ʻoku toʻo ʻae nonoʻo mei honau ngutu, pea ne u tuku ʻae meʻakai ʻi honau ʻao.
5 E kore ia e hoki atu ki te whenua o Ihipa; engari ko te Ahiriana hei kingi mona, mo ratou kihai i pai ki te hoki.
“ʻE ʻikai te ne toe liliu ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, ka ʻe hoko ʻae ʻAsilia ko hono tuʻi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau loto ke liliu.
6 Ka haua iho te hoari ki runga ki ona pa, whakamoti ai i ona tutaki a pau ake; na o ratou whakaaro hoki.
Pea ʻe nofomaʻu ki hono ngaahi kolo ʻae heletā, pea te ne fakaʻosi hono ngaahi vaʻa, pea kai ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau fakakaukau ʻanautolu pe.
7 A kei te tohe taku iwi ki te tahuri ke i ahau: ahakoa karangatia ratou ki te mea i runga rawa, kahore tetahi o ratou e whakanui i a ia.
Pea kuo pau pe hoku kakai ke fakaholomui meiate au: neongo ʻenau ui ʻakinautolu ki he Fungani Māʻolunga, naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha te ne hakeakiʻi ia.
8 Me pehea koe ka hoatu whakarere ai e ahau, e Eparaima, me pehea ka tukua ai koe e ahau, e Iharaira? Me pehea ka meinga ai koe e ahau kia rite ki Arema? me pehea ka waiho ai koe kia rite ki Tepoimi? kua puta ke toku ngakau i roto i ahau, ngiha tah i ano oku konohinohitanga.
“ʻE fēfeeʻi ʻa ʻeku fakatukutukuʻi koe, ʻe ʻIfalemi? Te u fakahaofi fēfeeʻi koe, ʻe ʻIsileli? ʻE fēfeeʻi ʻeku ngaohi ko e ke hangē ko ʻAtima? Te u tuku koe fēfeeʻi ke hangē ko Sipoimi? Kuo liliu hoku loto ʻiate au, kuo tupu fakataha ʻa ʻeku fakatomala.
9 E kore toku riri e mura nei e puta, e kore ahau e hoki ki te whakangaro i a Eparaima: ko te Atua hoki ahau, ehara i te tangata, ko te Mea Tapu i waenganui i a koe: e kore ano ahau e tomo ki te pa.
ʻE ʻikai te u fai ki hono kakaha ʻo hoku houhau, ʻe ʻikai te u tafoki ke fakaʻauha ʻa ʻIfalemi: pe ko e ʻOtua au, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tangata; ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻoku ʻi homou lotolotonga: pea ʻe ʻikai teu hū ki he loto kolo.
10 Ka whaia e ratou a Ihowa, a ka hamama ia ano he raiona: ka hamama hoki ia, a ka haere wiri mai nga tamariki i te hauauru.
Te nau muimui kia Sihova: te ne ngungulu hangē ko e laione; ʻi heʻene ngungulu ʻe tetetete ʻae fānau mei he lulunga.
11 Ka rere wiri mai ratou i Ihipa ano he manu, i te whenua o Ahiria ano he kukupa: ka whakanohoia ano hoki ratou e ahau ki o ratou whare, e ai ta Ihowa.
Te nau tetetete hangē ko e manupuna mei ʻIsipite, pea hangē ko e lupe mei he fonua ʻo ʻAsilia: pea te u tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi fale,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
12 Kua oti ahau te karapoti e Eparaima ki te teka, e te whare o Iharaira ki te tinihanga: engari a Hura kei runga i ta te Atua tana tikanga: kei te Mea Tapu ia, pono tonu.
ʻOku takatakai ʻaki au ʻe ʻIfalemi ʻae loi, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻae kākā: ka ʻoku kei pule ʻa Siuta mo e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ne angatonu mo e ngaahi kakai māʻoniʻoni.
