Ihaia 29

1 Aue te mate mo Ariere, mo Ariere, mo te pa i noho ai a Rawiri! tapiritia iho tetahi tau ki tetahi tau; mahia nga hakari i nga wa e rite ai:

Ko e malaʻia ki ʻAliela, ki ʻAliela, ʻae kolo naʻe nofo ai ʻa Tevita! Fakalahi ʻae tau ki he tau; tuku ke nau tāmateʻi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau.

2 Hei reira raru ai i ahau a Ariere, a ka pouri; ka tangi: a ka rite ia ki ahau ano ko Ariere.

Ka te u fakamamahiʻi ʻa ʻAliela, pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae ongosia mo e mamahi: pea ʻe pehē ia kiate au ʻo hangē ko e potu ʻoe feilaulauʻanga.

3 Ka nohoia atu ano koe e ahau, a karapoi noa; ka whakapaea koe ki te parepare, ka ara ano i ahau he taiepa hei tatau ki a koe.

Pea te u takatakai koe pea kāpui koe ʻaki ʻae moʻunga, pea te u langa ʻae ngaahi kolo kiate koe.

4 A ka whakahokia iho koe, ka korero ake i te whenua; ka iti ano tau kupu i roto i te puehu; ka rite tou reo ki to te tangata i te atua maori, he mea puta ake i te whenua, ka kohimu ake tau kupu i roto i te puehu.

Pea ʻe fakavaivaiʻi koe, pea te ke lea mei he kelekele, pea ʻe māʻulalo ho leʻo mei he efu, pea ʻe tatau ho leʻo mo ha taha ʻoku ʻiate ia ha laumālie kovi, mei he kelekele, pea ʻe fafana ho leʻo mei he efu.

5 Ko te huihuinga ia o ou hoariri ka rite ki te puehu ririki, a koe te huihuinga o te hunga nanakia ki te papapa e rere atu ana: ae ra, ka hemorere tonu.

Pea ko e tokolahi ʻo hoʻo kau muli te nau hangē ko e efuefu momo iiki, pea mo e tokolahi ʻoe kakai fakamanavahē te nau hangē ko e kafukafu ʻoku mole atu: ʻio, ʻe hoko fakafokifā ia ʻi he kemo pe taha.

6 Ka pa ta Ihowa o nga mano ki a ia, he whatitiri, he ru, he reo nui, he tukauati, he tupuhi, he mura ahi e ka ana.

‌ʻE ʻaʻahi kiate koe ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻaki ʻae mana, pea mo e mofuike, mo e longoaʻa lahi, ʻaki ʻae matangi lahi mo e afā, pea mo e ulo ʻoe afi fakaʻauha.

7 A ka rite ki te moe, ki te rekanga kanohi o te po nga iwi maha katoa e whawhai ana ki Ariere, ara te hunga katoa e ngangare ana ki a ia, ki tona pa kaha, e whakatupu kino ana hoki i a ia.

Pea ko e tokolahi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoku tauʻi ʻa ʻAliela, ʻio, ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tauʻi ia mo ʻene kolo, pea ʻoku fakamamahiʻi ia, te nau hangē ko ha misi, pe ko e meʻa hā mai ʻi he pō.

8 Ka rite ano ki te tangata matekai e moe ana, na kei te kai ia; heoi, kei te ohonga ake, e takoto kau ana tona wairua: ka rite hoki ki te tangata matewai e moe ana, na kei te inu ia; te ohonga ake, kahore he kaha, kei te hiahia ano tona wairua: ko te rite tera o te hui o nga iwi katoa e whawhai ana ki Maunga Hiona.

‌ʻO hangē ko e misi ʻae tangata fiekaia, pea vakai, ʻoku hangē ʻoku ne kai; pea ʻoka ʻā ia, ʻoku ngaongao hono laumālie: pe hangē ko e misi ʻa ha tangata fieinu, pea vakai, hangē ʻoku inu ia; ka ʻoku ne ʻaa, pea vakai, ʻoku vaivai ia, pea ʻoku ne holi: ʻe pehē pe ʻae tokolahi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻoku tauʻi ʻae moʻunga ko Saione.

9 E tu koutou, e miharo; e hari, a ka matapo: e haurangi ana ratou, ehara ia i te waina; e hurori ana, engari ehara i te wai kaha.

Mou tatali, pea ofo; mou kalanga, pea tangi: ʻoku nau konā, kae ʻikai ʻi he uaine; ʻoku nau tasipa, kae ʻikai ʻi he inu mālohi.

10 No te mea kua ringihia e Ihowa te wairua o te moe au tonu ki runga ki a koutou, kua oti ano i a ia te whakamoe o koutou kanohi, nga poropiti; ko o koutou rangatira, ko nga matakite, kua taupokina e ia.

He kuo lilingi ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu ʻae laumālie ʻoe mohe maʻu, pea kuo tāpuni homou mata: kuo ne fakapulou ʻae kau palōfita mo hoʻomou kau pule mo e kau kikite.

11 A ka rite ki a koutou te kitenga katoa ki nga kupu o tetahi pukapuka i hiritia, e hoatu ana e nga tangata ki tetahi tangata matua ki te korero pukapuka, ka mea atu, Tena, korerotia tenei: a ka mea mai ia, E kore e taea e ahau, e hiri na hoki.

Pea ko e meʻa hā mai kotoa pē kuo hoko kiate kimoutolu ʻo tatau mo e ngaahi lea ʻo ha tohi kuo tāpuni, ʻoku ʻange ʻe ha tangata ki ha tokotaha ʻoku poto, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke lau ʻae meʻa ni,” pea ʻoku ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u faʻa fai ia he kuo maʻu ia;”

12 Na ka hoatu taua pukapuka ki te mea kahore nei e matau ki te korero pukapuka; na ko te kianga atu, Tena, korerotia tenei: ano ra ko ia, Kahore ahau e matau ki te korero.

Pea ʻoku ʻatu ʻae tohi kiate ia ʻoku ʻikai poto, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke lau ʻae meʻa ni: pea ʻoku ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u poto.”

13 Na ka mea te Ariki, I te mea e whakatata ana mai te iwi nei ki ahau, a e whakahonore ana i ahau ki to ratou mangai, ki o ratou ngutu, otiia e matara noa atu ana i ahau o ratou ngakau, a ko to ratou wehi ki ahau he mea whakaako e ta te tangata to hutohu:

Ko ia ne pehē ai ʻe Sihova, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae kakai ni kiate au ʻaki honau ngutu, pea fakaʻapaʻapa kiate au ʻaki honau loungutu, ka kuo mamaʻo honau loto ʻiate au, pea ko ʻenau manavahē kiate au ʻoku tupu ia mei he ngaahi fekau ʻae tangata pe:

14 Na, ka tahuri ahau ki te mahi i tetahi mahi whakamiharo ki waenganui i tenei iwi, he mahi whakamiharo rawa, he miharo whakaharahara: ka whakamotitia hoki nga whakaaro o o ratou mea whakaaro nui, ka ngaro te matauranga o o ratou mea mohio.

Ko ia, vakai, te u fai leva ha ngāue fakaofo ki he kakai ni, ʻio, ʻae ngāue fakaofo mo lahi: he ko e poto ʻo ʻenau kau tangata poto ʻe ʻauha ia, pea ko e ʻilo ʻo ʻenau kau tangata fakamākukanga ʻe fufū ia.

15 Aue te mate mo te hunga e whai ana i te wahi hohonu, kia ngaro ai to ratou whakaaro i a Ihowa; a kei te pouri a ratou mahi, e mea ana hoki, Ko wai e kite ana i a tatou? ko wai e matau ana ki a tatou?

‌ʻE malaʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻahiʻahi lahi ke fufūnaki honau loto meia Sihova, pea ʻoku fai ʻi he poʻuli ʻenau ngaahi ngāue, pea ʻoku nau pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku mamata kiate kitautolu? Pea ko hai ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻakitautolu?”

16 Ta koutou whakaputa ke! E kiia ranei te kaihanga rihi he rite ki te paru? e ki ake ranei te mea i hanga ki tona kaihanga, Kihai ahau i hanga e ia? e mea ake ranei te mea i mahia ki tona kaimahi, Kahore ona matauranga?

Ko e moʻoni ko hoʻomou fulifulihi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻe tatau mo e ʻumea ʻoe tangata ngaohi ipu: he ʻe lea pehē koā ʻae meʻa kuo ngaohi kiate ia naʻa ne fakatufungaʻi, naʻe ʻikai te ne ngaohi au? Pe, ʻe pehē ʻae meʻa kuo ngaohi kiate ia naʻe ngaohi ia, naʻe ʻikai haʻane ʻilo?

17 He teka ranei he iti rawa nei te takiwa, a ka puta ke a Repanona hei mara whai hua, a ka kiia te mara whai hua hei ngahere?

‌ʻIkai ʻoku toetoe siʻi pea ʻe liliu ʻa Lepanoni ke hoko ko e ngoue fua moʻui, pea ko e ngoue fua ʻe tatau ia mo e vao ʻakau?

18 I taua ra ka rongo nga turi i nga kupu o te pukapuka, ka kite ano nga kanohi o nga matapo i roto i te kakarauri, i te pouri.

Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻe fanongo ʻae tuli ki he ngaahi lea ʻoe tohi, pea ʻe mamata ʻae mata ʻoe kui mei he kakapu, pea mei he poʻuli.

19 Ka neke ake ano te hari o te hunga mahaki ki a Ihowa, ka koa ano nga tangata rawakore ki te Mea Tapu o Iharaira.

Pea ʻe ʻāsili ai ʻae fiefia ʻae angavaivai ʻia Sihova, pea ko e masiva ʻi he kakai te nau fiefia ʻi he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.

20 Kua moti hoki te tangata nanakia; a ko te tangata whakahi, kua poto; kua hatepea atu ano te hunga katoa i whanga ki te kino:

He kuo mole ʻae tokotaha naʻe fakamālohi, pea kuo ʻauha mo e tangata manuki, pea kuo tuʻusi ke motu ʻakinautolu ʻoku lama ke fai kovi.

21 E whakatau he nei ki te tangata e korero ana, e whakatakoto rore nei mo te kairiri o te he i te kuwaha; a kahore he rawa i whakapeaua ketia ai e ratou te tangata tika.

‌ʻOku nau fakahalaia ha tangata ʻi he kupuʻi lea, pea ʻoku nau tau ʻae tauhele kiate ia ʻoku valoki ʻi he matapā, pea fakaafe ʻae angatonu ʻi he meʻa taʻeʻaonga.

22 Na ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, nana nei a Aperahama i hoko, mo te whare o Hakopa, E kore a Hakopa e whakama aianei, e kore ano e koma tona mata aianei.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne huhuʻi ʻa ʻEpalahame, ki he fale ʻo Sēkope, ʻe ʻikai mā ʻa Sēkope, pea ʻe ʻikai liliu ʻo tea hono mata.

23 Engari kia kite ia i ana tamariki, i te mahi a oku ringa, i roto i a ia, ka whakatapua e ratou toku ingoa; ae ra, ka whakatapua ano e ratou te Mea Tapu o Hakopa, a ka wehi ki te Atua o Iharaira.

Ka ʻi heʻene mamata ki heʻene fānau, ko e ngāue ʻa hoku nima, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia, te nau fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoku huafa, pea fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo Sēkope, pea manavahē ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.

24 Ka mohiotia ano te matauranga e nga wairua kotiti ke, a ka ako te hunga amuamu ki te kupu mohio.

Pea ko kinautolu foki naʻe hala ʻi he laumālie te nau hoko ʻo ʻilo, pea ko kinautolu naʻe lāunga te nau maʻu ʻae akonaki.
