< Waiata a Horomona 8 >
1 Aue me i rite koe ki toku tungane i ngote nei i nga u o toku whaea! Ka kite ahau i a koe i waho, ka kihia koe e ahau; ae, e kore tetahi e whakahawea ki ahau.
ʻAmusiaange ʻeau kuo ke tatau mo ha tuongaʻane kiate au, ʻaia naʻe fakahuhu ʻi he ongo huhu ʻo ʻeku faʻē! Koeʻuhi ʻo kau ka ʻilo koe ʻituʻa. ke u ʻuma kiate koe, ʻo ʻikai mā ai.
2 Ka aratakina koe e ahau, ka kawea ki te whare o toku whaea, ko ia ano hei whakaako i ahau; ka whakainumia koe e ahau ki te waina whakaranu, ki te wai o taku pamekaranete.
Ka ne pehē, te u tataki koe mo ʻomi koe ki he fale ʻo ʻeku faʻē, pea te ne ako kiate au: te u fakainu koe ʻi he uaine namu lelei, kuo huʻi ʻaki ʻeau ʻae huhuʻa melie ʻoe pomikanite.
3 Ko tona maui ki raro i toku matenga, ko tona matau ki te awhi i ahau.
Pea ʻe ʻi lalo ʻi hoku ʻulu ʻa hono nima toʻohema, pea fāʻufua au ʻe hono nima toʻomataʻu.
4 He ki atu tenei naku ki a koutou, e nga tamahine o Hiruharama, kaua e whakaohokia, kaua e whakaarahia taku e aroha nei, kia pai ra ano ia.
ʻE ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Selūsalema, ʻoku ou fekau kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mou ueʻi pe fafangu ʻa hoku ʻofaʻanga, kaeʻoua ke faʻiteliha pe ia.
5 Ko wai tenei e haere mai nei i te koraha e taupuhipuhi nei ki tana i aroha ai? Naku koe i whakaara ake i raro i te aporo; ko te wahi tena i puta mai ai koe i roto i tou whaea; i puta mai ano koe i reira i roto i te wahine i whanau ai koe.
Ko hai eni ʻoku haʻu mei he toafa, ʻoku faʻaki kiate ia ʻoku ne ʻofa ai? Naʻaku hiki hake koe ʻi he lolo moli: naʻe fanauʻi koe ʻi ai ʻe hoʻo faʻē, naʻe fanauʻi ʻi ai koe ʻe ia naʻa ne fāʻeleʻi koe.
6 Waiho ahau hei hiri ki tou ngakau, hei hiri ki tou ringa; rite tahi hoki ki to te mate te kaha o te aroha; nanakia tonu te hae, ano ko te urupa, ko ona hiko, he hiko ahi, he mura pu na Ihowa. (Sheol )
ʻAi au ki ho loto ʻo hangē ko e fakamaʻu ʻo ha tohi, pea hangē ko e mama ki ho nima; he ʻoku mālohi ʻae ʻofa ʻo tatau mo e mate; ʻoku ongongataʻa ʻae fuaʻa ʻo hangē ko e faʻitoka: ko hono malala ʻoku hangē ko e malalaʻi afi, ʻaia ʻoku ulo kakaha. (Sheol )
7 Nui te wai, e kore te aroha e taea te tinei, e kore ano e ngaro i nga awa: ahakoa i hoatu e te tangata nga rawa katoa o tona whare mo te aroha, ka whakahaweatia rawatia.
ʻOku ʻikai faʻa tāmateʻi ʻae ʻofa ʻaki ʻae vai lahi, pea ʻe ʻikai mate ia ʻi he ngaahi vaitafe ʻoku lahi: pea kapau ʻe foaki ʻe ha tangata ʻae koloa kotoa pē ʻi hono fale ka ne maʻu ai ʻae ʻofa, ʻe lau pe ia ko e meʻa vaʻinga.
8 He teina nohinohi to matou, kahore hoki ona u: me pehea matou ki to matou teina i te ra e korerotia ai ia?
ʻOku ai homau tehina, pea ʻoku teʻeki hunuki hono huhu: pea ko e hā te mau fai ʻoka hoko ʻae ʻaho ke alea ki ai?
9 Ki te mea he taiepa ia, ka hanga e tatou he pourewa ki runga ki a ia, he mea hiriwa: ki te mea he tatau ia, ka whakakopakina ia e tatou ki nga papa hita.
Kapau ko e ʻā ia, te mau fokotuʻu ki ai ha fale siliva: pea kapau ko e matapā ia, te mau teuteu ʻaki ia ʻae laupapa ko e sita.
10 He taiepa ahau, ko oku u, ano ko ona pourewa; no reira, ki tana titiro mai, i rite ahau ki tetahi kua kite i te ata noho.
Ko au ko e ʻā, pea tatau mo e fale māʻolunga ʻa hoku huhu: ko ia ia naʻaku tatau ai ʻi hono ʻao mo ha taha kuo maʻu ʻae fiemālie.
11 He mara waina ta Horomona i Paarahamono, tukua atu ana e ia te mara ki nga kaitiaki; kotahi mano nga hiriwa hei kawenga mai ma tenei, ma tenei hei utu mo ona hua.
Naʻe ia Solomone ʻae ngoue vaine ʻi Peali-Hamone: pea naʻa ne tuku ʻene ngoue vaine ki he kau tauhi: pea naʻe fekau ke ʻomi taki taha ʻae konga siliva ʻe afe, ko e totongi ki hono ngaahi fua.
12 Ko taku mara, ko taku ake, kei toku aroaro: mau, e Horomona, te kotahi mano, a ma nga kaitiaki o ona hua e rua rau.
ʻOku ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa ʻeku ngoue vaine ʻaʻaku: pea ko koe ʻe Solomone, te ke maʻu mei ai ʻae konga siliva ʻe afe, kae tuku kiate kinautolu ʻoku tauhi hono fua ʻae uangeau.
13 E koe e noho nei i nga kari, e whakarongo ana nga hoa ki tou reo: meinga kia rongo ahau.
ʻA koe ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi ngoue, pea ʻoku ongoʻi ho leʻo ʻe ho kāinga: tuku au foki ke u fanongo ai.
14 Kia hohoro, e taku e aroha nei, kia rite koe ki te anaterope, ki te kuao hata ranei i runga i nga maunga kinaki kakara.
Fai vave ʻa hoku ʻofaʻanga, pea ke tatau koe mo e kāseli pe ko e hainite mui he ngaahi moʻunga ʻoe kakala.
