Hopa 39
1 E mohiotia ana ranei e koe te wa e whanau ai nga koati mohoao o te kamaka? E kitea putia ana ranei e koe te wa e whakamamae ai nga hata?
“ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻoku fanauʻi ai ʻae fanga kosi kaivao ʻoe maka? Pe ʻoku ke faʻa fakaʻilonga ʻoka fanauʻi ʻae fanga hainiti?
2 E taua ano ranei e koe nga marama e rite ana i a ratou? E mohio ana ranei koe ki te wa e whanau ai ratou?
ʻOku ke faʻa lau ki he kakato ʻo honau ngaahi māhina? Pe ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻoku nau fāʻele ai?
3 Tuohu ana ratou, kua puta mai a ratou kuao, akiritia mai ana e ratou o ratou mea whakapouri.
ʻOku nau fakamapelu ʻakinautolu, ʻoku nau fāʻeleʻi honau ʻuhiki, ʻoku nau lī kituʻa ʻenau ngaahi mamahi.
4 E pai ana te ahua o a ratou kuao, e tupu ana i te parae; ka haere atu ratou, a kahore e hoki mai ano.
ʻOku matamatalelei honau ʻuhiki, ʻoku nau tupu hake ʻi he toafa; ʻoku nau ʻalu atu, pea ʻikai toe haʻu kiate kinautolu.
5 Na wai i tuku te kaihe mohoao kia haere noa atu; nga here o te kaihe mohoao, na wai i wewete?
“Ko hai kuo ne fekau atu tauʻatāina ʻae ʻasi kaivao? Pe ko hai kuo ne vete ʻae ngaahi haʻi ʻoe ʻasi kaivao?
6 Ko te whare i whakaritea nei e ahau mona, ko te koraha: ko ona nohoanga ko te wahi titiohea.
ʻAia kuo u tuʻutuʻuni ʻae toafa ko hono fale ʻoʻona, mo e fonua lala ko hono ngaahi nofoʻanga.
7 Whakahaweatia iho e ia te ngangau o te pa; e kore ia e rongo ki te reo o te kaiakiaki.
ʻOku manuki ia ki he tokolahi ʻoe kolo, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne tokanga ki he kalanga ʻoe tauhi.
8 Ko tona wahi kai kei te tuahiwi o nga maunga, e rapua ana e ia nga mea matomato katoa.
Ko hono kaiʻanga ko e ngaahi moʻunga ʻataʻatā, pea ʻoku ne kumi ʻae meʻa mata kotoa pē.
9 E pai ranei te unikanga kia mahi ki a koe? Kei tau takotoranga kai ranei he moenga mona?
“ʻE fie tauhi kiate koe ʻae liimi, pe nofo ofi ki hoʻo ʻaiʻangakai?
10 E herea ranei e koe te unikanga ki tona taura i te awa parautanga? E rakarakatia ranei e ia nga raorao me tana whai ano i a koe?
ʻOku ke faʻa nonoʻo ʻae liimi ʻaki hono noʻotaki ʻi he keli? Pe te ne muimui ʻiate koe ke fakatoka lelei ʻae ngaahi luo?
11 E whakawhirinaki atu ranei koe ki a ia, no te mea e nui ana tona kaha? E whakarerea atu ranei e koe tau mahi mana?
Te ke falala ki ai koeʻuhi ʻoku lahi ʻa hono mālohi? Pe te ke tuku hoʻo ngāue kiate ia?
12 E whakapono atu ranei koe mana au hua e whakahoki mai; mana e kohikohi mai ki tau patunga witi?
Te ke tui kiate ia, te ne fetuku ki ʻapi hoʻo ngaahi fua, ʻo tānaki ia ki ho feleoko?
13 E whakamanamana ana te parirau o te otereti; otira he atawhai ano ranei ta ona hou, ta ona raukura?
“Ko e kapakau ʻoe ʻositalesi ke kapakapa: ka ʻoku puna hake ʻae sitoaka mo e falekoni.
14 E whakarerea ana e ia ona hua ki te whenua, whakamahanatia iho e ia ki te puehu,
Vakai, ʻoku ne fakato hono ngaahi fua ʻi he kelekele, ʻo ne fakamafana ia ʻi he efu,
15 Wareware ake ia tera pea e pepe i te waewae, e takahia ranei e te kirehe o te parae.
Pea ngalo ʻiate ia ʻe laiki nai ia ʻe he vaʻe, pe maumauʻi ia ʻe he manu kaivao.
16 He mea pakeke ia ki ana pi me te mea ehara i a ia: ahakoa ka maumauria tana mahi, kahore ona manawapa;
Kuo fakafefeka ʻene anga ki hono fānganga ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ʻakinautolu: ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻene ngāue taʻemanavahē;
17 No te mea i whakakahoretia e te Atua he ngakau mahara mona, kihai hoki i homai he whakaaro ki a ia.
Koeʻuhi kuo fakamasivaʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he poto, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku kiate ia ʻae faʻa ʻilo.
18 I te wa e maranga ai ia ki runga, whakahaweatia iho e ia te hoiho raua ko tona kaieke.
Ko e feituʻulaʻā ko ia te ne tuʻu hake ki ʻolunga, ʻoku ne manukiʻi ʻae hoosi mo ia ʻoku heka ai.
19 Nau ranei i hoatu tona kaha ki tae hoiho? Nau ranei tona kaki i whakakakahu ki te huruhuru?
“Naʻa ke tuku ʻe koe ʻae mālohi ki he hoosi? Naʻa ke fakakofuʻaki hono kia ʻae mana?
20 Nau ranei ia i mea kia pekepeke, kia pera me te mawhitiwhiti? He hanga whakawehi te kororia o tona whewhengu.
ʻOku ke faʻa fakamanavahēʻi ia ʻo hangē ko e heʻe? Ko e mānava lahi ʻo hono ihu ʻoku fakailifia.
21 E hukari ana ia ia te raorao, me te koa ano ki tona kaha: tika tonu ia ki te hunga mau patu.
ʻOku kenukenu ia ʻi he vahaʻa moʻunga, pea fiefia ʻi he mālohi: ʻoku ʻalu atu ia ke fakafetaulaki ki he kau tangata ʻoku toʻo mahafutau.
22 Whakahawea ana ia ki te wehi, kahore ona mataku; e kore ano ia e nunumi mai i te hoari.
ʻOku ne manuki ki he manavahē, pea ʻoku ʻikai ilifia ia; pe foki kimui mei he heletā.
23 Papa ana te papa pere ki tona taha, te tao e rarapa ana, me te timata.
ʻOku ngatata ʻae tangakaho kiate ia, ʻae tao ngingila pea mo e fakaū.
24 E horomia ana e ia te whenua, me te ngangau me te riri; kahore ia i te whakapono ko te reo tera o te tetere.
ʻOku ne folohifo ʻae kelekele ʻi he feinga mo e lili: pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne tui ko e leʻo ia ʻoe meʻa lea.
25 Ka tangi ana te tetere ka mea ia, Ha, ha! I tawhiti ano ka hongia e ia te pakanga, te whatitiri o nga rangatira, me te hamama.
ʻOku pehē ʻe ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi meʻa lea, ‘He, he;’ pea nanamu ki he tau ʻi he kei mamaʻo, ko e mana ʻoe kau taki tau, mo ʻenau mavava.
26 He mohio nou i rere ai te kahu, i roha ai i ona parirau, i anga ai whaka te tonga?
“ʻOku puna ʻae falekoni ʻi hoʻo poto, ʻo mafao atu hono kapakau ki he feituʻu tonga?
27 Nau te kupu i kake ai te ekara? i hanga ai e ia tana ohanga ki te wahi tiketike?
ʻOku puna hake ʻae ʻikale ko hoʻo fekau, ʻo ne ngaohi hono pununga ʻi ʻolunga?
28 Noho ana ia i runga i te kamaka, kei reira tona kainga, kei te kamaka keokeo, kei te pa kaha.
ʻOku nofo ia ʻo tatali ʻi he maka, ʻi he maka hangatāmaki, mo e potu mālohi.
29 A rapua ana e ia he kai i reira; e kite atu ana ona kanohi i tawhiti.
ʻOku kumi mei ai ʻene meʻakai, pea ʻoku sio hono mata mei he mamaʻo.
30 Horomititia ake ana hoki nga toto e ana pi; a ko te wahi i nga tupapaku, kei reira ano ia.
ʻOku mimisi hake foki ʻe hono ʻuhiki ʻae toto: pea ko e potu ko ia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mate, ʻoku ʻi ai ia.”
