Hona 2
1 Katahi a Hona ka inoi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, i roto i te kopu o te ika,
Ko ia naʻe lotu ai ʻa Siona kia Sihova ko hono ʻOtua mei he kete ʻoe ika.
2 I mea ia, I karanga ahau, he ngakau mamae noku, ki a Ihowa; a whakahoki mai ana ia ki ahau; i tangi atu ahau i roto i te kopu o te reinga, a whakarongo ana koe ki toku reo. (Sheol h7585)
ʻO ne pehē, “Naʻaku tangi ʻi heʻeku mamahi kia Sihova, naʻa ne ongoʻi au; naʻaku tangi mei he loto faʻitoka, pea naʻa ke ongoʻi hoku leʻo. (Sheol h7585)
3 I maka hoki ahau e koe ki te rire, ki waenga moana, a karapotia ana ahau e nga roma; tika ana au tuatea katoa me au ngaru i runga i ahau.
He ko koe naʻa ke lī au ki he loloto, ki loto tahi; naʻaku ʻi he loto moana: pea naʻe melemo hifo au ʻi hoʻo ngaahi ngalu pea mo hoʻo ngaahi peau.
4 Na ka mea ahau, Kua oti ahau te pei i mua i ou kanohi; otiia tera ahau e titiro atu ano ki tou temepara tapu.
Ko ia ne u pehē ai, ‘kuo liʻaki atu au mei ho ʻao; ka neongo ia, te u toe sio ki ho fale tapu māʻoniʻoni.’
5 Karapotia ana ahau e te wai, tae tonu iho ki te wairua; i oku taha katoa te rire a taka noa; he rimu nga takai o toku mahunga.
Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi vai, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki hoku laumālie: naʻe kāpui takatakai au ʻe he loloto, naʻe takatakai ʻae limu ʻi hoku ʻulu.
6 I haere ahau ki raro ki nga take o nga maunga; kopia ana ahau e te whenua me ona tutaki ake ake; heoi whakaputaina ake ana e koe toku ora i roto i te poka, e Ihowa, e toku Atua.
Naʻaku ʻalu hifo ki he tefito ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga: pea naʻe takatakai au ʻe he mālohi ʻoe māmani ʻo taʻengata; ka neongo ia, kuo ke ʻomi ʻa ʻeku moʻui mei he fakaʻauha, ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua.
7 I te hemonga o toku wairua i roto i ahau, i mahara ahau ki a Ihowa: i tae atu ano taku inoi ki a koe ki tou temepara tapu.
“ʻI heʻene pongia hoku laumālie ʻiate au naʻaku manatu kia Sihova; pea naʻe ʻaʻau atu kiate koe ʻa ʻeku kole, ki ho ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni.
8 Ko te hunga e pupuri ana i nga mea tekateka noa e whakarere ana i te atawhai mo ratou.
Ko kinautolu ʻoku tokanga ki he ngaahi vaʻinga loi, ʻoku nau siʻaki pe ʻekinautolu ʻa honau ʻalo ʻofeina.
9 Ko ahau ia ka mea patunga tapu ki a koe i runga i te reo whakawhetai; ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi. Na Ihowa te whakaoranga.
Ka ko au te u feilaulau ʻaki kiate koe ʻae leʻo ʻoe fakafetaʻi; te u fai ʻaia kuo u fuakava ki ai. ʻOku meia Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui.”
10 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki te ika, a ka ruakina e tera a Hona ki te wahi maroke.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ki he ika, pea naʻa ne puʻaki atu ʻa Siona ki he fonua mōmoa.
