Tauanga 9

1 I korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi i te koraha o Hinai, i te rua o nga tau o to ratou haerenga mai i te whenua o Ihipa, i te tahi o nga marama, i mea,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina ʻo hono ua taʻu hili ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē,

2 Me mahi ano te kapenga e nga tama a Iharaira i tona wa ano.

“Tuku ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kenau fai foki ʻae Lakaatu ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kuo kotofa.

3 Me mahi i te tekau ma wha o nga ra o tenei marama, i te ahiahi, i tona wa ano: kia rite ki ona tikanga katoa, ki ona ritenga katoa, ta koutou meatanga.

‌ʻI hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻoe māhina ni, ʻi he efiafi, te mou fai ia ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kuo kotofa: ʻo fakatatau ki hono anga kotoa pē, pea te mou fai ia ʻo fakatatau ki hono tuʻutuʻuni kotoa pē.”

4 Na ka korero a Mohi ki nga tama a Iharaira kia mahia te kapenga.

Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, kenau fai ʻae Lakaatu.

5 A ka mahia e ratou te kapenga i te tekau ma wha o nga ra o te marama tuatahi, i te ahiahi, i te koraha o Hinai: rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i whakahau ai a Ihowa ki a Mohi ta nga tama a Iharaira i mea ai.

Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae Lakaatu ʻi hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina, ʻi he efiafi, ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai: ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau kotoa pē ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, naʻe fai pehē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

6 Na tera etahi tangata i poke i te tupapaku, i kore ai e ahei te mahi i te kapenga i taua ra: na ka haere ratou ki te aroaro o Mohi raua ko Arona i taua ra;

Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae kau tangata niʻihi, naʻa nau taʻemaʻa ʻi he sino mate ʻo ha tangata, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai tenau fai ʻae Lakaatu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he ʻao ʻo Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻi he ʻaho ko ia:

7 A ka mea aua tangata ki a ia, Kua poke matou i te tupapaku: he aha matou te tukua ai ki te whakahere i te whakahere ma Ihowa i tona wa i rite ai, i roto i nga tama a Iharaira?

Pea naʻe lea pehē ʻae kau tangata ko ia kiate ia, “ʻOku mau ʻuli ʻi he sino mate ʻoe tangata: ko e hā kuo taʻofi ai ʻakimautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mau ʻatu ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova ʻi hono kuonga kuo kotofa ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli?”

8 Na ka mea a Mohi ki a ratou, E tu koutou, a me whakarongo atu ahau ki to Ihowa e whakahau ai mo koutou.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu, “Mou tatali, kaeʻoua ke u fanongo pe ko e hā ʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu.”

9 A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

10 Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu, Ki te poke i te tupapaku tetahi o koutou, o o koutou uri ranei, ki te mea ranei kei tawhiti e haere ana, me mahi ano e ia te kapenga ki a Ihowa.

Ke ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ke pehē, “Kapau ʻe taʻemaʻa ha tangata ʻiate kimoutolu pe ʻi homou hako koeʻuhi ko e sino mate, pea mo ia ʻoku fononga mamaʻo, ʻe fai pe ʻe ia ʻae Lakaatu kia Sihova.

11 Me mahi e ratou i te rua o nga marama, i te tekau ma wha o nga ra, i te ahiahi, me kinaki ki te taro rewenakore, ki nga puwha kawa:

‌ʻI hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻo hono ua māhina ʻi he efiafi tenau fai ia, pea ʻe kai fakataha ia mo e mā taʻefakalēvani mo e ngaahi ʻakau kona.

12 Kaua tetahi wahi o tena mea e whakatoea e ratou mo te ata, kaua ano hoki e whatiia tetahi o ona wheua; kia rite ki nga tikanga katoa o te kapenga ta ratou mahinga i tena mahi.

‌ʻE ʻikai tenau tuku hono toe ki he ʻapongipongi, pe fesiʻi ha hui ʻi ai: tenau fai ia ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻoe Lakaatu.

13 Ko te tangata ia kahore ona poke, a kahore ano i te haere, a e mangere ana ki te mahi i te kapenga, ina, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i tona iwi: kahore nei hoki i kawea e ia te whakahere ma Ihowa i tona wa i rite ai, ka waha e taua tangata tona hara.

Ka ko e tangata ʻoku maʻa, pea ʻoku ʻikai fononga mamaʻo, pea ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻe ia ʻae laka-atu, ko e tangata ko ia ʻe tuʻusi mei hono kakai: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻomi ʻae feilaulau ʻa Sihova ʻi hono ʻaho kuo kotofa; ʻe fua ʻe he tangata ko ia ʻa ʻene angahala.

14 A ki te noho he manene i roto i a koutou, a ka mea ki te mahi i te kapenga ki a Ihowa; kia rite ki nga tikanga o te kapenga, ki nga ritenga ano o taua mahi, tana e mea ai: kia kotahi ano ta koutou tikanga mo te manene raua ko te tangata whenua.

“Pea kapau ʻe ʻāunofo ha muli ʻiate kimoutolu, pea fai ʻe ia ʻae Lakaatu kia Sihova; ʻe fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni ʻoe Lakaatu, pea fakatatau ki hono anga, ʻe pehē ʻene fai: ko e fekau pe taha te mou maʻu ki he muli, pea mo ia ʻoku fanauʻi ʻi he fonua.”

15 A i te ra i whakaarahia ai te tapenakara, ka taupokina te tapenakara e te kapua, ara te teneti o te whakaaturanga: a i te ahiahi i rite a runga o te tapenakara ki te ahua ahi, taea noatia te ata.

Pea ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae fale fehikitaki naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻae ʻao, ʻio, ko e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni: pea naʻe ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻi he efiafi ʻae meʻa ʻo hangē ko e afi, ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi.

16 I pera tonu: i taupokina e te kapua i te awatea, e te ahua ahi hoki i te po.

Naʻe pehē maʻuaipē: naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pea hangē ko e afi ʻi he pō.

17 Ka riro ake hoki te kapua i runga i te tapenakara, na, muri iho, ka haere nga tama a Iharaira: a i te wahi i tau ai te kapua ka whakaturia e nga tama a Iharaira o ratou teneti ki reira.

Pea ʻoka toʻo hake ʻae ʻao mei he fale fehikitaki, hili ia, naʻe fononga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea ko e potu naʻe tuʻu ai ʻae ʻao, ko ia naʻa nau fokotuʻu ai honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki.

18 Na ko nga haerenga o nga tama a Iharaira na te whakahau a Ihowa, a ko o ratou nohoanga iho na te whakahau ano a Ihowa: i noho ano ratou i nga ra katoa i tau ai te kapua ki runga ki te tapenakara.

Pea naʻe fononga atu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, pea nau nofo ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova: naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ʻapitanga ʻo hangē ko hono fuoloa ʻoe nofo ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki.

19 A ka maha nga ra i roa ai te kapua ki runga ki te tapenakara, na ka rite i nga tama a Iharaira ta Ihowa i whakarite ai, a kihai i haere.

Pea ka tatali fuoloa ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻaho lahi, naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he tauhi ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai fononga.

20 A he wa ano i torutoru nga ra o te kapua ki runga ki te tapenakara; heoi na te whakahau a Ihowa ka noho ratou i o ratou teneti, a na te whakahau ano a Ihowa ka haere ratou.

Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he nofo ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho siʻi; ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ʻapitanga, pea naʻa nau fononga ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova.

21 A i etahi wa i tuturu te kapua i te ahiahi taea noatia te ata; a ka riro ake te kapua i te ata, na ka haere ratou: ahakoa he ao, he po ranei, i riro ake ai te kapua, i haere ano ratou.

Pea naʻe pehē, ka tuʻu ʻae ʻao mei he efiafi ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi, pea toki toʻo hake ʻae ʻao ʻi he pongipongi, naʻa nau fononga: ʻi he ʻaho pe ʻi he pō kuo toʻo hake ai ʻae ʻao naʻa nau fononga.

22 Ahakoa e rua nga ra, kotahi marama ranei, kotahi tau ranei, i roa ai te kapua ki runga ki te tapenakara, i mau ai ki reira, na noho a puni tonu iho nga tama a Iharaira, kahore hoki i haere: tona rironga ake ki runga, na ka haere ratou.

Pea kapau ko e ʻaho ʻe ua, pe taha māhina, pe taha taʻu, mo e tuʻu ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki, ʻo tuʻumaʻu ai, naʻe nofo ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi honau ʻapitanga, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fononga: pea ʻi hono toʻo hake ia naʻa nau fononga.

23 Na te whakahau a Ihowa ta ratou noho, na te whakahau hoki a Ihowa ta ratou haere: i rite i a ratou ta Ihowa i whakarite ai, ta Ihowa i whakahau ai, i korerotia ai e Mohi.

Pea naʻa nau mālōlō ʻi honau ʻapitanga ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, pea naʻa nau fononga ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova: naʻa nau fai ki he pule ʻa Sihova, ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
