< Hohua 2 >

1 Na ka tonoa atu e Hohua, e te tama a Nunu, etahi tangata tokorua i Hitimi hei tutei puku atu, i mea ia, Tikina, tirohia te whenua, me Heriko hoki. Na haere ana raua, a ka tae ki te whare o tetahi wahine kairau, ko Rahapa tona ingoa, a ka moe i re ira.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua, ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ʻae ongo tangata mei Sitimi, kena fakaʻasiʻasi fakafufū pē, ʻo ne pehē, Mo ō ʻo vakai ʻae fonua, ʻio, ʻa Seliko. Pea naʻa na ō ʻo hoko ki he fale ʻo ha fefine angahala, naʻe hingoa ko Lehapi, pea na mohe ai.
2 Na ka korerotia ki te kingi o Heriko, ka meatia, Nana, kua tae mai etahi tangata ki konei i te po nei, no nga tama a Iharaira, he whakataki i te whenua.
Pea naʻe tala ki he tuʻi ʻo Seliko, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, naʻe omi ʻae ongo tangata ki heni ʻi he poōni mei he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua.”
3 Na ka tonoa atu e te kingi o Heriko ki a Rahapa, ka mea, Whakaputaina mai ki waho nga tangata i haere mai na ki a koe, i haere atu na ki tou whare: i haere mai hoki raua he mataki i te whenua katoa.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Seliko kia Lehapi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOmi ʻae ongo tangata kuo haʻu kiate koe, ʻaia kuo hū ki ho fale: he kuo na haʻu ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua kotoa pē.”
4 Na ka hopu te wahine ra ki nga tangata tokorua, a huna iho e ia; a ka mea atu ia, He tika i haere mai nga tangata ki ahau, heoi, kihai ahau i mohio no hea ranei raua:
Ka naʻe ʻave ʻe he fefine ʻae ongo tangata, ʻo ne fufū ʻakinaua, ʻo ne tala ʻo pehē, “Naʻe omi ʻae ongo tangata kiate au, ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo pe kuo na haʻu mei fē:
5 A, no te wa o te tutakitanga o te kuwaha, no te mea ka pouri nei, ka puta atu aua tangata ki waho: kahore ahau e mohio i haere aua tangata ki hea: kia hohoro te whai i muri i a raua; ka mau hoki raua i a koutou.
Pea ʻi he hokosia ʻae songo ʻoe matanikolo ʻi he poʻuli, naʻe ʻalu ʻae ongo tangata kituaʻā: pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloa pe ne na ō ki fē: mou tuli fakatoʻotoʻo ʻakinaua; he temou maʻu ʻakinaua.
6 Kahore ia, kua kawea raua e ia ki runga ki te tuanui, a huna ana raua ki nga kakau rinena i horahorangia e ia ki runga i te tuanui.
Ka kuo ʻosi ʻene ʻomi ʻakinaua ki he tuʻafale, ʻo ne fufū ʻakinaua ʻi he ngaahi kau ʻoe falakesi, ʻaia naʻa ne folahi lelei ki he tuʻafale.”
7 Na ka whai nga tangata i muri i a raua na te huarahi ki Horano a tae noa ki nga whakawhitinga: a, no te putanga atu ano o nga kaiwhai i a raua ki waho, ka tutakina te kuwaha.
Pea naʻe tuli ʻakinaua ʻe he kau tangata ʻi he hala ki Sioatani ʻo aʻu atu ki he ngaahi aʻaʻanga: pea ʻi he ʻalu leva kituaʻā ʻakinautolu naʻe tuli ʻakinaua, naʻa nau tāpuni leva ʻae matanikolo.
8 A, kiano raua i takoto noa, na ka haere ake ia ki a raua ki te tuanui;
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ke takoto ʻakinaua, naʻa ne ʻalu hake kiate kinaua ʻi he tuʻafale;
9 Ka mea ki aua tangata, E mohio ana ahau kua hoatu te whenua nei e Ihowa ki a koutou, kua tau mai hoki te wehi o koutou ki a matou, a kei te ngohe noa nga tangata katoa o te whenua nei i a koutou.
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he ongo tangata, “ʻOku ou ʻilo kuo foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae fonua kiate kimoutolu, pea kuo tō homou lilika kiate kimautolu, pea kuo ilifia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu.
10 I rongo hoki matou ki ta Ihowa whakamaroketanga i te wai o te Moana Whero i o koutou aroaro, i to koutou putanga mai i Ihipa; ki nga mea hoki i meatia e koutou ki nga kingi tokorua o nga Amori i tawahi o Horano, ki a Hihona raua ko Oka, i huna n ei e koutou.
He kuo mau fanongo ki he fakamōmoa ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi vai ʻoe Tahi Kulokula maʻamoutolu, ʻi hoʻomou haʻu mei ʻIsipite; pea mo ia ne mou fai ki he ongo tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, ʻa Sihoni, mo Oki, ʻaia ne mou fakaʻauha ʻaupito.
11 A, i to matou rongonga ano, ka ngohe noa o matou ngakau, kahore atu hoki he tokonga ake o te wairua i roto i tetahi, na koutou hoki: no te mea ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, ko ia te Atua i te rangi i runga, i te whenua hoki i raro.
Pea ʻi heʻemau ongoʻi leva, naʻe vaivai homau loto, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito kei mālohi ha tangata koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu: he ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ia ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he langi, pea ʻi māmani ʻi lalo.
12 Na, tena, oatitia mai a Ihowa ki ahau, i te mea kua atawhaitia nei korua e ahau, ka atawhai hoki koutou ki te whare o toku matua, a ka homai he tohu pono ki ahau:
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoua, mo fuakava kiate au ʻia Sihova, ʻi heʻeku fakahā ʻae angaʻofa ni kiate kimoua, pea koeʻuhi ke mo fakahā ʻae angaʻofa ki he fale ʻo ʻeku tamai foki, pea tuku mai kiate au ha fakaʻilonga moʻoni:
13 Ka whakaora hoki koutou i toku papa, i toku whaea, i oku tungane, i oku tuakana, me a ratou mea katoa, a ka araarai i a matou kei mate.
Koeʻuhi ke mou fakamoʻui ʻeku tamai, mo ʻeku faʻē, mo hoku ngaahi tuongaʻane mo hoku ngaahi tehina, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku nau maʻu, pea fakahaofi ʻemau moʻui mei he mate.”
14 Na ka mea aua tangata ki a ia, Ko to maua ora mo to koutou, ki te kahore koutou e whaki i ta maua take: a tenei ake, hei te homaitanga a Ihowa i te whenua ki a matou, ka puta hoki ta matou mahi atawhai, ta matou mahi pono ki a koe.
Pea naʻe tala kiate ia ʻe he ongo tangata, “Ko ʻema moʻui, ki hoʻomou moʻui, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakahā ʻema ngāue ni.” Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, “ʻI he tuku mai ʻe Sihova ʻae fonua kiate kimautolu, te mau fai angaʻofa mo angatonu kiate koe.
15 Na tukua iho ana raua e ia ki tetahi taura na te matapihi: kei te taiepa tonu hoki o te pa tona whare, a noho ai ia i runga i te taiepa.
Pea naʻa ne toki tukutuku hifo ʻakinaua mei he matapā sioʻata ʻaki ʻae afo: he naʻe tuʻu hono fale ʻi he funga ʻā ʻoe kolo, pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻā.
16 A ka mea ia ki a raua, Haere ki te maunga, kei tutaki nga kaiwhai ki a korua; ka piri ai ki reira kia toru nga ra, kia hoki mai ra ano nga kaiwhai: katahi korua ka haere i to korua huarahi.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Mo ō ʻo mole atu ki he moʻunga, telia naʻa mo fetaulaki mo e kau tuli; pea fufū ʻakimoua ʻi ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, kaeʻoua ke liu mai ʻae kau tuli: pea hili ia ʻe lelei hoʻomo ō ʻi homo hala.”
17 Katahi ka mea aua tangata ki a ia, E kore maua e whai hara mo tenei oati au i whakaoati nei koe i a maua.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ongo tangata kiate ia, “ʻOku ma [fie ]taʻehalaia ʻi hoʻo fuakava ni, ʻaia kuo ke fakafuakava ai mo kimaua.
18 Nana, ina tae mai matou ki tenei whenua, herea te miro nei, te aho whero nei ki te matapihi i tukua iho nei maua e koe na reira; a me whakahuihui mai ki a koe, ki roto ki te whare, tou papa, me tou whaea, me ou tungane, me te nohoanga katoa o to u papa.
Vakai, ʻoka mau ka hoko ki he fonua, te ke nonoʻo ʻae potu afo kulokula ni ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he matapā, ʻaia naʻa ke tukutuku hifo ai ʻakimaua: pea ke ʻomi hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē, mo ho ngaahi tuongaʻane, mo e kāinga kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ki ʻapi kiate koe.
19 Na ahakoa ko wai te tangata e puta atu ana ki waho o nga tatau o tou whare, hei runga ano i tona mahunga ona toto, ko maua ia ka harakore; tena ko nga tangata katoa i roto tahi koutou i te whare, hei o maua mahunga ona toto, ki te pa atu tetahi ringa ki a ia.
Pea ʻe pehē, ʻilonga ʻaia ʻe hū kituʻa ʻi he matapā ʻo ho fale ki he hala, ʻe ʻi hono ʻulu pē ʻa hono toto, pea ʻe taʻehala ʻakimaua: pea ʻilonga ʻaia ʻe ʻiate koe ʻi he fale, ʻe ʻi homa ʻulu hono toto, ʻo kapau ʻe ala ʻe ha nima kiate ia.”
20 Otiia, ki te korero koe i ta maua take, ka watea maua i tau oati i whakaoati nei koe i a maua.
Pea kapau te ke fakahā ʻema ngāue ni, te ma toki ʻataʻatā ai mei he fuakava ʻaia kuo ke fefuakava ai mo kimaua.”
21 Ano ra ko ia, Waiho i ta korua i mea na. A tukua atu ana raua e ia, a haere ana raua: a herea ana e ia te aho whero ki te matapihi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Hangē ko hoʻomo ngaahi lea, ke pehē pe ia.” Pea naʻa ne fekau ʻakinaua kena ō, pea na ō: pea ne noʻotaki ʻae afo kulokula ʻi he matapā.
22 Na ka haere raua, a ka tae ki te maunga, a noho ana i reira e toru nga ra, a hoki noa nga kaiwhai: a rapu noa nga kaiwhai i a raua i te huarahi katoa, a kahore i kitea.
Pea naʻa na ō, pea hoko ki he moʻunga, ʻo na nofo ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, kaeʻoua liu mai ʻae kau tuli: pea naʻe kumi ʻakinaua ʻe he kau tuli ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoe hala, ka naʻe ʻikai tenau ʻilo ʻakinaua.
23 Katahi ka hoki aua tangata tokorua, ka heke iho i te maunga, a ka whiti, ka tae ki a Hohua, tama a Nunu, ka korero ki a ia i nga mea katoa i pono ki a raua.
Ko ia naʻe liu mai ʻae ongo tangata ʻo ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, ʻo na ō ki he kauvai ʻe taha, ʻo hoko kia Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ʻo fakahā kiate ia ʻaia kotoa pē kuo hoko kiate kinaua:
24 A ka mea raua ki a Hohua, Koia ano, kua homai e Ihowa te whenua katoa ki o tatou ringa; a ngohe kau nga tangata katoa o te whenua i a tatou.
Pea naʻa na pehē kia Siosiua, “Ko e moʻoni kuo tukuange ʻe Sihova ʻae fonua kotoa pē ki hotau nima; he ʻoku vaivai ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua koeʻuhi ko kitautolu.”
