Tauanga 23
1 Na, a mea a Paraama ki a Paraka, Hanga etahi aata maku kia whitu, kia rite mai hoki maku he puru kia whitu, he hipi toa hoki kia whitu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami kia Pelaki, “Fokotuʻu moʻoku ʻi heni ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻe fitu, pea teuteu mai ʻi heni ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu, mo e sipitangata ʻe fitu.”
2 Na rite tonu t Paraka i mea ai ki nga mea i korerotia e Paraama: a whakaekea ana e Paraka raua ko Paraama he puru, he hipi, ki tetahi aata, ki tetahi aata.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Pelaki ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Pelami; pea naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻe Pelaki mo Pelami ha pulu mo e sipitangata ʻi he feilaulauʻanga taki taha.
3 Na ka mea a Paraama ki a Paraka, E tu ki te taha o tau tahunga tinana, a ka haere ahau: tera pea a Ihowa e tupono mai ki ahau: a me korero atu e ahau ki a koe te kupu e whakakitea mai e ia ki ahau. Na ka haere ia ki tetahi puke hamore.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami kia Pelaki, “Tuʻu ke ofi ki hoʻo feilaulau tutu, ka teu ʻalu: heiʻilo ʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Sihova ke ma fetaulaki mo au, pea ko ia te ne fakahā kiate au te u tala kiate koe.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki he potu māʻolunga.
4 Na ka tupono a Ihowa ki a Paraama: a ka mea ia ki a ia, Kua oti i ahau nga aata e whitu, kua whakaekea ano hoki he puru, he hipi, ki tenei aata, ki tenei aata.
Pea naʻe fetaulaki ʻae ʻOtua mo Pelami: pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo u teuteu ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻe fitu, pea kuo u feilaulau ʻaki ai taki taha ʻae pulu mo e sipitangata.”
5 Na ka homai e Ihowa he kupu ki te waha o Paraama, ka mea, Hoki atu ki a Paraka, a kia penei tau ki atu.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Sihova ʻae lea ki he ngutu ʻo Pelami, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ke foki kia Pelaki, mo ke pehē kiate ia.”
6 A ka hoki atu ia ki a ia, na, i te taha ia o tana tahunga tinana e tu ana, ratou ko nga rangatira katoa o Moapa.
Pea naʻa ne foki kiate ia, pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi heʻene feilaulau tutu, ʻa ia, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo Moape.
7 Na ka ara tana ki pepeha, ka mea, Na Paraka kingi o Moapa ahau i arahi mai i Arame, i nga maunga o te rawhiti, i mea, Haere mai hei kaikanga maku mo Hakopa, haere mai hoki hei whakatara ki a Iharaira.
Pea naʻa ne fai atu ʻa ʻene lea fakatātā, ʻo pehē, “Ko Pelaki ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape kuo ne ʻomi au mei ʻElami, mei he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo hahake, ʻo ne pehē, ‘Haʻu, ke ke fakamalaʻiaʻi maʻaku ʻa Sēkope, pea ke tukitalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.’
8 Me aha e kanga ai ahau i ta te Atua i kore ai e kanga? me aha hoki e whakatara ai ahau ki ta Ihowa kihai i whakatara?
“Te u fakamalaʻiaʻi fēfē, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai fakamalaʻia ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea te u tukitalaʻi fēfē, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai tukitalaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua?
9 Tenei hoki ahau kei te tihi o nga kamaka e titiro atu ana ki a ia, e kite atu ana i a ia i runga i nga pukepuke: nana, he iwi noho ko ia anake, e kore ano hoki e taua i roto i nga tauiwi.
He ʻoku ou mamata kiate ia mei he tumutumu ʻoe ngaahi maka, pea ʻoku ou sio kiate ia mei he moʻunga: vakai, ʻe nofo kehe ʻae kakai, ʻe ʻikai lau ia fakataha mo e ngaahi puleʻanga.
10 Ma wai e tatau te puehu o Hakopa, e titiro ranei te maha o te whakawha o Iharaira? Hei te mate o te hunga tika he matenga moku, kia rite hoki toku whakamutunga ki tona!
Ko hai te ne faʻa lau ʻae efu ʻo Sēkope, mo e lau ʻa hono vahe fā ʻo ʻIsileli? Tuku ke u mate au ʻi he mate ʻae māʻoniʻoni, pea tatau hoku ikuʻanga mo hono ikuʻanga.”
11 Na ka mea a Paraka, ki a Paraama, He aha tau e mea nei ki ahau? i tikina atu koe e ahau hei kanga i oku hoariri, na, kua manaakitia rawatia ratou e koe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kia Pelami, “Ko e hā kuo ke fai kiate au? Ne u ʻomi ko e ke ke tukitalaʻi hoku ngaahi fili, pea tā ʻoku ke tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu.”
12 Na ka whakautua e ia, ka mea, Kaua ranei ahau e mahara ki te whakapuaki i te kupu e homai e Ihowa ki toku waha?
Pea naʻe lea ia ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai ʻoku totonu ʻeku tokanga ke lea ʻaki ʻaia kuo ʻai ʻe Sihova ki hoku ngutu?”
13 Na ka mea a Paraka ki a ia, Tena, haere mai taua ki tetahi wahi ke atu, e kite ai koe i a ratou: ko to ratou pito tau e kite ai; e kore hoki koe e kite i a ratou katoa: a hei reira puaki ai i a koe taku kanga mo ratou.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kiate ia, “ʻOku ou kole atu kiate koe, Haʻu, ke ta ō ki ha potu kehe, pea te ke mamata mei ai kiate kinautolu: te ke mamata pe ki heʻenau mui nofo, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke mamata kiate kinautolu kotoa pē: pea te ke tukitalaʻi ʻakinautolu mei ai maʻaku.”
14 Na ka kawea ia e ia ki te mara o Topimi, ki te tihi o Pihika, a hanga ana e ia e whitu nga aata, whakaekea atu ana hoki e ia he puru, he hipi, ki tenei aata, ki tenei aata.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki he ngoue ʻo Sofimi, ki he tumutumu ʻo Pisika, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻe fitu, pea naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻi ai taki taha ʻae pulu mo e sipitangata.
15 Na ka mea ia ki a Paraka, E tu ki konei ki te taha o tau tahunga tinana, ka whakatau ahau ki ko, ki a Ihowa.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kia Pelaki, “Tuʻu ke ofi ki hoʻo feilaulau tutu, lolotonga ʻa ʻeku ʻalu ki he potu na ke ma fetaulaki.”
16 Na ka tupono a Ihowa ki a Paraama, ka homai e ia he kupu ki tona waha, ka mea, Hoki atu ki a Paraka, kia penei hoki tau ki atu.
Pea naʻe fetaulaki ʻa Sihova mo Pelami, pea naʻe tuku ʻe ia ʻae lea ki hono ngutu, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke toe ʻalu kia Pelaki, mo ke lea pehē.”
17 A ka haere atu ia ki a ia, na, e tu ana ia e te taha o tanga tahunga tinana, ratou ko nga rangatira o Moapa. A ka mea a Paraka ki a ia, I pehea mai te kupu a Ihowa?
Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ia kiate ia, vakai, naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi heʻene feilaulau tutu, fakataha mo e houʻeiki ʻo Moape. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kiate ia,
18 Na ka ara tana ki pepeha, ka mea, Whakatika, e Paraka, whakarongo mai; kia whai taringa mai ki ahau, e te tama a Tiporo:
Pea naʻa ne fai atu ʻa ʻene lea fakatātā, ʻo pehē, “Pelaki, tuʻu hake ʻo fanongo; tokanga mai kiate au, ʻa koe ko e foha ʻo Sipoa:
19 Ehara te Atua i te tangata e teka ai; i te tama ranei a te tangata e puta ke ai ona whakaaro. Tera ranei ia e korero, a kore ake e mahi? e puaki ranei tana kupu, a kahore e mana?
ʻOku ʻikai ko ha tangata ʻae ʻOtua, ke loi ia; pe ko e foha ʻoe tangata, koeʻuhi ke fakatomala ia: kuo ne folofola, pea ʻikai ʻe fai ʻe ia ki ai? Pea kuo lea ia, pea ʻikai ʻe fakamoʻoni ia ki ai?
20 Nana, kua riro mai i ahau te kupu manaaki; kua oti hoki i a ia te kupu manaaki; a e kore e taea e ahau te whakaputa ke.
Vakai, ne u maʻu ʻae fekau ke tāpuaki: pea kuo ne fakamonūʻiaʻi; pea ʻe ʻikai te u faʻa fakakehe ia.
21 Kahore i tirohia e ia he kino i a Hakopa, kahore ano hoki i kitea he tutu i a Iharaira: kei a ia a Ihowa, tona Atua, kei roto hoki i a ratou te hamama a te kingi.
Naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi ha angahala ʻia Sēkope, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi ha angatuʻu ʻia ʻIsileli: ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae mavava ki he tuʻi.
22 Na Ihowa ratou i whakaputa mai i Ihipa; kei te te unikanga tona kaha.
Naʻe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻOtua mei ʻIsipite; ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae mālohi ʻoe ʻiunikoni.
23 He pono kahore he makutu mo Hakopa, kahore ano hoki he whaiwhaia mo Iharaira: hei tenei wa ano ka korerotia a Hakopa, ae ra, a Iharaira, ano te mahi a te Atua!
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻikai ha tukitala kia Sēkope, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fakasausau kia ʻIsileli: pea ko e lea ʻe fai ʻi he kuonga ni ʻia Sēkope mo ʻIsileli, ‘Vakai ki he meʻa kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua!’
24 Nana, ka whakatika te iwi ano he raiona katua, ka ara ake ano hoki ano he raiona: e kore e takoto, kia kainga ra ano te tupapaku, kia inumia hoki nga toto o te parekura.
Vakai, ʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ʻo hangē ko e laione lahi, pea ʻe hiki hake ia ʻo hangē ko e laione mui: ʻe ʻikai toe tokoto ia kaeʻoua ke ne kai ʻae koloa, pea inu ʻae toto ʻoe tāmateʻi.”
25 Na ka mea a Paraka ki a Paraama, Kaua rawa e kanga i a ratou, kaua rawa ranei e manaaki i a ratou.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kia Pelami, “ʻOua ʻaupito naʻa ke fakamalaʻia ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa ke tāpuaki ʻakinautolu.”
26 Na ka whakautua e Paraama, ka mea ki a Paraka, Kahore ianei ahau i korero ki a koe, i mea, Ko nga mea katoa e korero mai ai a Ihowa, ko tena taku e mea ai?
Ka naʻe lea ʻa Pelami kia Pelaki ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai naʻaku tala kiate koe, ʻo pehē, Ko e lea kotoa pē kuo folofolaʻaki mai ʻe Sihova ko ia pe te u fai?”
27 Na ka mea a Paraka ki a Paraama, Tena, me kawe koe e ahau ki tetahi atu wahi; tera pea e pai te Atua kia whakapuakina e koe i reira taku kanga mo ratou.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelaki kia Pelami, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, haʻu, ke u ʻave ko e ki ha potu kehe; heiʻilo ʻe lelei ki he ʻOtua ke ke fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻakinautolu mei ai maʻaku.”
28 Katahi ka kawea a Paraama e Paraka ki te tihi o Peoro, e titiro iho ana ki te koraha.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Pelaki ʻa Pelami ki he tumutumu ʻo Peoli, ʻaia ʻoku hanga atu ki Sesimoni.
29 A ka mea a Paraama ki a Paraka, hanga he aata maku ki konei kia whitu, kia rite hoki maku ki konei he puru kia whitu, he hipi toa kia whitu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Pelami kia Pelaki, “Fokotuʻu maʻaku ʻi heni ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻe fitu, pea teuteu maʻaku ʻi heni ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu, mo e sipitangata ʻe fitu.”
30 A rite tonu ta Paraka i mea ai ki nga mea i korerotia e Paraama, a whakaekea ana e ia he puru, he hipi, ki runga ki tenei aata, ki tenei aata.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Pelaki ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Pelami, pea naʻe feilaulau ʻaki ʻi ai taki taha ʻae pulu mo e sipitangata.
