Tauanga 22
1 Na ka turia atu e nga tama a Iharaira, a ka noho ki nga mania o Moapa, ki tenei taha o Horano ki te ritenga atu o Heriko.
Pea naʻe hiki atu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo nofo ʻi he toafa ʻo Moape ʻi he potu mai ʻo Sioatani[ʻo ofi ]ki Seliko.
2 A i kite a Paraka tama a Tiporo i nga mea katoa i mea ai a Iharaira ki nga Amori.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe ʻIsileli ki he kau ʻAmoli.
3 Na nui atu te wehi o Moapa ki te iwi, no te mea he tokomaha: a tuatea noa iho a Moapa i nga tama a Iharaira.
Pea naʻe manavahē lahi ʻa Moape ki he kakai, koeʻuhi naʻa nau tokolahi: pea naʻe mamahi lahi ʻa Moape koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
4 Na ka mea a Moapa ki nga kaumatua o Miriana, Akuanei tenei hui horomiti ai i nga tangata katoa i nga taha katoa o tatou, pera ai me te kau e horomiti nei i te tarutaru o te mara. A ko Paraka tama a Tiporo te kingi o Moapa i taua wa.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Moape ki he kau mātuʻa ʻo Mitiane, “Ko eni, ʻe ʻemo hake ʻe he kakai ni ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku takatakai ʻakitautolu, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻemo hake ʻe he pulu ʻae mohuku ʻoe ngoue.” Pea ko Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa ko e tuʻi ia ʻoe kau Moape ʻi he kuonga ko ia.
5 Na ka tukua e ia he karere ki a Paraama tama a Peoro ki Petoto, i te taha o te awa, ki te whenua o nga tama o tona iwi, ki te tiki i a ia, hei mea, He iwi tenei kua puta mai i Ihipa, na, kapi ana i a ratou te mata o te whenua; e noho nei ano rato u i toku aroaro:
Ko ia naʻa ne fekau ai kia Pelami ko e foha ʻo Peoli ki Pitoli, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he vaitafe ʻoe fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa hono kakai, ke ui ia, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo haʻu ha kakai mei ʻIsipite: vakai, ʻoku nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga fonua, pea ʻoku nau nofo ofi kiate au:
6 Na, tena, haere mai hei kaikanga maku i te iwi nei; he kaha ke hoki ratou i ahau: tera pea ka toa ahau, ka patua ratou e matou, a ka peia atu ratou i te whenua: e mohio ana hoki ahau, ko tau e manaaki ai ka manaakitia, ko tau hoki e kanga ai ka k anga.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke haʻu ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻae kakai ni, he ʻoku nau mālohi fau kiate au: pea te u vetekina nai, mo teʻia ʻakinautolu, pea te u kapusia ʻakinautolu ʻi he fonua ni: he ʻoku ou pehē, ʻoku monūʻia ia ʻoku ke fakamonūʻiaʻi, pea ʻoku malaʻia ia ʻoku ke fakamalaʻiaʻi.”
7 A ka haere nga kaumatua o Moapa ratou ko nga kaumatua o Miriana me nga utu makutu i o ratou ringa; a ka tae ki a Paraama, a korerotia ana e ratou nga kupu a Paraka.
Pea ko e kau mātuʻa ʻo Moape mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo Mitiane naʻa nau ʻave ʻi honau nima ʻae totongi ʻo ʻene tukitala; pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Pelami, ʻo fakahā kiate ia ʻae lea ʻa Pelaki.
8 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, E noho ki konei i tenei po, a maku e whakahoki he korero ki a koutou, ko ta Ihowa hoki e korero ai ki ahau. Na ka noho nga rangatira o Moapa ki a Paraama.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou nofo ʻi heni ʻi he poōni, pea te u toe ʻomi ʻae lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au:” pea naʻe nofo mo Pelami ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Moape.
9 Na ka haere te Atua ki a Paraama, ka mea, Ko wai ena tangata i a koe na?
Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua kia Pelami, mo ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae kau tangata ni ʻoku ʻiate koe?”
10 A ka mea a Paraama ki te Atua, Kua unga tangata mai a Paraka tama a Tiporo, kingi o Moapa, ki ahau, hei ki mai,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻOtua, “Ko Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa, ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape, kuo ne fekau mai kiate au, ʻo pehē,
11 He iwi tenei kua puta mai i Ihipa, a kapi ana i a ratou te mata o te whenua: tena, haere mai hei kaikanga maku i a ratou; tera pea e taea e ahau te whawhai ki a ratou, te pei hoki i a ratou.
‘Vakai kuo haʻu ha kakai mei ʻIsipite, ʻoku nau ʻufiʻufi ʻae funga fonua: ko ia ke ke haʻu ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻakinautolu; pea te u mālohi ʻapē ʻiate kinautolu, pea kapusi atu ʻakinautolu.’”
12 Na ka mea te Atua ki a Paraama, Kaua e haere i a ratou; kaua e kanga tena iwi: kua oti hoki ratou te manaaki.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kia Pelami, “ʻOua ʻaupito te ke ʻalu mo kinautolu; ʻe ʻikai te ke fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻae kakai: he ʻoku nau monūʻia.”
13 Na ka maranga a Paraama i te ata, ka mea ki nga rangatira a Paraka, Haere ki to koutou whenua: e kore hoki a Ihowa e pai ki te tuku i ahau kia haere i a koutou.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Pelami ʻi he pongipongi, pea naʻa ne pehē ki he houʻeiki meia Pelaki, “Mou ō ki homou fonua: he kuo taʻofi au ʻe Sihova ke ʻoua naʻa tau ō mo kimoutolu.”
14 Na ka whakatika nga rangatira o Moapa, ka haere ki a Paraka, ka mea, Kihai a Paraama i pai ki te haere tahi mai i a matou.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Moape, ʻonau ō kia Pelaki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Pelami, ʻe ʻikai te ne haʻu mo kimautolu.”
15 Na ka tonoa e Paraka etahi atu rangatira, he tokomaha atu, he nunui atu i era.
Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Pelaki ʻae houʻeiki kehe naʻe ongoongolelei mo tokolahi hake ʻiate kinautolu.
16 A ka tae ratou ki a Paraama, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Paraka tama a Tiporo, kei puritia atu koe e tetahi mea, haere mai ki ahau:
Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Pelami, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa, ‘ʻOku ou kole atu kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa toe ʻai ha meʻa ke taʻofi hoʻo haʻu kiate au:
17 Ka whakanuia rawatia hoki koe e ahau, ka meatia ano e ahau nga mea katoa e mea mai ai koe ki ahau: haere mai ra hei kaikanga maku i tenei iwi.
He te u hiki hake ko e ke ke ongoongolelei lahi, pea te u fai ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea mai kiate au: ko ia ke ke haʻu, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻae kakai ni.’”
18 Na ka utu Paraama, ka mea ki nga tangata a Paraka, Ahakoa i ki tona whare i te hiriwa, i te koura, e homai e Paraka ki ahau, e kore e ahei i ahau te whakawhiti ki ko atu i te kupu a Ihowa, a toku Atua, te mea i te mea iti iho, i te mea nui ake r anei.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Pelami ki he kau talafekau ʻa Pelaki, “Kapau ʻe foaki ʻe Pelaki kiate au ʻa hono fale ʻoku pito ʻi he siliva mo e koula, ʻe ʻikai teu faʻa fakakeheʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ke fai ʻo lahi hake pe siʻi hifo.
19 Na, e noho ki konei i tenei po, kia mohio ahau ki ta Ihowa e mea mai ai ano ki ahau.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu, mou nofo foki ʻi heni ʻi he poōni, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻe toe folofola mai ʻe Sihova kiate au.”
20 A i puta mai te Atua ki a Paraama i te po, a ka mea ki a ia, Ki te haere mai aua tangata ki te karanga i a koe, whakatika, haere i a ratou: ko te kupu ia e korero ai ahau ki a koe, ko tena tau e mea ai.
Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he pō kia Pelami, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata ke ui koe, tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu mo kinautolu; ka ko e lea te u lea ʻaki kiate koe, ko ia pe te ke fai.”
21 Na ka maranga a Paraama i te ata, a whakanohoia ana e ia tana kaihe, a haere ana i nga rangatira o Moapa.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Pelami ʻi he pongipongi, pe naʻa ne ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki heʻene ʻasi, pea ʻalu mo e houʻeiki ʻo Moape.
22 Na ka mura te riri o te Atua mona i haere, a ka tu te anahera a Ihowa ki te ara hei hoariri mona. A i runga ia i tona kaihe e noho ana, ko ana tangata tokorua hoki ona hoa.
Pea naʻe tupu ʻae houhau ʻoe ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko ʻene ʻalu: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻi he hala ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ko e tali tau kiate ia. Pea naʻe heka ia ʻi heʻene ʻasi, pea mo ʻene ongo tamaioʻeiki mo ia.
23 A ka kite te kaihe i te anahera a Ihowa e tu ana i te ara, me tana hoari i tona ringa, unu rawa, ka peka atu te kaihe i te ara, a ka haere ki te parae: na ka whiua e Paraama te kaihe kia anga ki te ara.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova naʻe tuʻu ʻi he hala, pea mo ʻene heletā naʻe ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe afe atu ʻae ʻasi mei he hala, ʻo ʻalu ki he ngoue: pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Pelami ʻae ʻasi, ke fakafoki ia ki he hala.
24 Katahi ka tu te anahera a Ihowa ki tetahi huarahi whawharua o nga mara waina, he taiepa kei tenei taha, he taiepa hoki kei tera taha.
Ka naʻe tuʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻi he hala ʻoe ngoue vaine, pea naʻe ai ʻae ʻā maka ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu, mo e potu toʻohema.
25 A, no te kitenga o te kaihe i te anahera a Ihowa, ka whakapiri ki te taiepa, a karapitia ana te waewae o Paraama ki te taiepa: no ka whiua ano e ia.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, naʻe ʻoho ia ki he ʻā maka, pea naʻe mamulu ʻae vaʻe ʻo Pelami ʻi he ʻā maka: pea naʻa ne toe taaʻi ia.
26 Na ka neke ano te anahera a Ihowa, a ka tu ki te wahi kuiti, kahore nei he ara hei pekanga ki matau, ki maui.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he potu ʻapiʻapi, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha hala ke afe ki he nima toʻomataʻu ki he toʻohema.
27 A, no te kitenga o te kaihe i te anahera a Ihowa, ka takoto ki raro i a Paraama: a ka mura te riri o Paraama, ka patua e ia te kaihe ki tana rakau.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae ʻasi ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, naʻe tō ia ki lalo mo Pelami: pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae ʻita ʻa Pelami, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae ʻasi ʻaki ʻae tokotoko.
28 Na ka whakahamumutia e Ihowa te waha o te kaihe, a ka korero ki a Paraama, I aha ahau ki a koe, i toru ai enei patunga au i ahau?
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Sihova ʻae ngutu ʻoe ʻasi, pea ne pehē ʻe ia kia Pelami, “Ko e hā kuo u fai kiate koe, kuo ke taaʻi ai au ʻo liunga tolu?”
29 A ka mea a Paraama ki te kaihe, Mo tau maminga ra ki ahau: me he hoari i toku ringa, ina, kua whakamatea koe e ahau inaianei.
Pea pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻasi, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke manukiʻi au: ʻamusiaange ʻeau kuo ʻi hoku nima ha heletā, he ka ne ai te u tāmateʻi koe.”
30 Na ka mea ake te kaihe ki a Paraama, Ehara ianei ahau i tau kaihe, i ekengia nei e koe o toku rironga mai ra ano i a koe, a tae noa mai ki tenei ra? he penei ranei taku hanga ki a koe i mua? A ka mea ia, Kahore.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻasi kia Pelami, “ʻIkai ko hoʻo ʻasi au kuo ke heka ki ai talu hoʻo maʻu au ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni? He kuo u faʻa fai pehē ni kiate koe?” Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻe ʻikai.”
31 Katahi ka whakatirohia e Ihowa nga kanohi o Paraama, a ka kite ia i te anahera a Ihowa e tu ana i te ara, me tana hoari i tona ringa, unu rawa: na ka tuohu ia, ka piko iho tona mata.
Pea naʻe toki fakaʻā ʻe Sihova ʻae mata ʻo Pelami, pea naʻe mamata ia ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he hala, mo ʻene heletā kuo toʻo ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe punou ʻe ia hono ʻulu, pea foʻohifo ki hono mata.
32 Na a mea te anahera a Ihowa ki a ia, Na te aha enei patunga e toru au i tau kaihe? nana, i puta atu ahau hei hoariri mou, no te mea e peau ke ana tou ara i toku aroaro:
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻāngelo kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo ke taaʻi ai ʻa hoʻo ʻasi ni ʻo liunga tolu? Vakai ne u ʻalu atu ʻo taʻofi koe, koeʻuhi ʻoku kovi ho hala ʻi hoku ʻao:
33 A i kite te kaihe i ahau, e toru ona pekanga ki tahaki i toku aroaro: me i kahore ia te peka atu ki tahaki i toku aroaro, ina, kua patua tenei koe e ahau, a ko ia kua whakaorangia.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻae ʻasi kiate au, pea ne afe meiate au ʻo liunga tolu: ka ne ʻikai afe ia meiate au ko e moʻoni kuo u tāmateʻi foki koe, kae tuku ia ke moʻui.”
34 Na ka mea a Paraama ki te anahera a Ihowa, Kua hara ahau; noku kihai i mohio ko koe te tu mai ana i te ara ki te whakatutaki i ahau: na ki te he tenei ki tau titiro, me hoki ahau.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, “Kuo u angahala au; he naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo naʻa ke tuʻu kiate au ʻi he hala: pea ko eni, kapau ʻoku kovi kiate koe, te u toe foki au.”
35 Na ka mea te anahera a Ihowa ki a Paraama, Haere i aua tangata: ko te kupu ia e korero ai ahau ki a koe, ko tena anake tau e korero ai. Na ka haere a Paraama i nga rangatira a Paraka.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova kia Pelami, “ʻAlu mo e kau tangata: ka ko e lea pe te u lea ʻaki kiate koe, ko ia pe te ke lea ʻaki.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Pelami mo e houʻeiki meia Pelaki.
36 A, ko rongo a Paraka e tae mai ana a Paraama, ka haere ia ki te whakatau i a ia ki tetahi pa o Moapa i te rohe o Aranona, i te rohe whakamutunga.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Pelaki kuo haʻu ʻa Pelami, pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ʻo fakafetaulaki mo ia ki ha kolo ʻi Moape, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he matafonua ʻo ʻAlanoni, ʻi hono ngataʻanga mamaʻo atu.
37 A ka mea a Paraka ki a Paraama, Kahore ianei ahau i ata unga ki a koe, ki te karanga i a koe? he aha koe te haere mai ai ki ahau? he pono ranei e kore e ahei i ahau te whakanui i a koe?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kia Pelami, “ʻIkai naʻaku fekau mālohi kiate koe ʻo ui koe? Ka ko e hā naʻe ʻikai te ke haʻu ai kiate au? ʻIkai ʻoku ou mafai ke u hiki hake koe ke ke ongoongolelei?”
38 Na ka mea a Paraama ki a Paraka, Na, kua tae mai nei ahau ki a koe: e taea ranei e ahau te korero tetahi mea, ahakoa iti? Ko te kupu e homai e te Atua ki toku mangai, ko tena taku e korero ai.
Pea pehē ʻe Pelami kia Pelaki, “Vakai, kuo u haʻu kiate koe: pea ʻoku ai ha mālohi siʻi ʻiate au ke u lea ki ha meʻa? Ka ko e folofola ʻe tuku mai ʻe he ʻOtua ki hoku ngutu, ko ia pe te u lea ʻaki.”
39 Na ka haere a Paraama i a Paraka, a ka tae raua ki Kiriata Hutoto.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Pelami mo Pelaki, pea naʻa na hoko ki Kesa-Husoti.
40 Na ka patua he kau, he hipi, e Paraka, a ka unga tangata i a Paraama ratou ko ona hoa, ko nga rangatira.
Pea naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻe Pelaki ʻae fanga pulu mo e sipi, ʻo ne tali kia Pelami, mo e houʻeiki naʻe ʻiate ia.
41 A i te ata ka mau a Paraka ki a Paraama, a kawea ana e ia ki runga ki nga wahi teitei o Paara, a ka kite atu ia i reira i te hiku o te iwi.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he pongipongi hake, naʻe ʻave ʻe Pelaki ʻa Pelami, ʻo ʻomi ia ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻo Peali, koeʻuhi ke ne mamata mei ai ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe kakai ʻi tuaʻā.
