ʻIsikieli 33

1 Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

2 “Foha ʻoe tangata, lea ki he fānau ʻa hoʻo kakai, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, Kapau te u ʻomi ʻae heletā ki ha fonua, pea ʻe vaheʻi ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua ha tangata ʻi honau potu fonua, pea tuku ia ko honau tangata leʻo:

3 Pea kapau ʻi heʻene sio ʻoku haʻu ʻae heletā ki he fonua, pea ʻoku ne ifi ʻae meʻalea, mo tala ki he kakai;

4 Ka pehē, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fanongo ki he hā mai ʻae meʻalea, ka ʻoku ʻikai tuitala; kapau ʻe hoko mai ʻae heletā, pea teʻia ʻaki ia, ʻe ʻi hono tumuʻaki pe ʻoʻona ʻa hono toto.

5 He naʻa ne fanongo ki he leʻo ʻoe meʻalea ka naʻe ʻikai valokia ai ia: ʻe ʻiate ia pe ʻa hono toto. Ka ko ia ʻoku tuitala ʻe fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻa hono laumālie.

6 Pea kapau ʻe sio ʻae tangata leʻo ʻoku haʻu ʻae heletā, ka ʻoku ʻikai ifi ʻe ia ʻae meʻalea, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tala ki he kakai: kapau ʻe hoko mai ʻae heletā ʻo teʻia ʻaki ha taha ʻiate kinautolu, ʻe ʻave moʻoni ia ʻi heʻene hia, ka ko hono toto te u ʻeke ki ai ki he nima ʻoe tangata leʻo.

7 Pea ʻoku pehē, ʻE foha ʻoe tangata, kuo u tuku koe ko e leʻo ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli; ko ia te ke fanongo ki he folofola mei hoku fofonga, pea ke valokiʻi ʻakinautolu meiate au.

8 ‌ʻO kau ka pehē ki he angahala, ʻE angahala ko e moʻoni te ke mate koe; kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke lea koe ke valokiʻi ʻae angahala mei hono hala, ʻe mate ʻae angahala ko ia ʻi heʻene hia, ka te u ʻekeʻi hono toto mei ho nima ʻoʻou.

9 Ka ko eni, kapau te ke valoki ʻae angahala ke liliu mei hono hala; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai tafoki ia mei hono hala ʻe mate moʻoni ia ʻi heʻene hia; ka kuo ke fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe koe ʻa ho laumālie.

10 “Ko ia, ʻE foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke lea ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli; ʻoku mou lea, ʻo pehē, ‘Kapau ʻoku ʻiate kimautolu pē ʻemau fai kovi mo ʻemau angahala, pea ʻoku mau fakaʻaʻau ai ki mui, pea tā koeʻumaʻā ʻemau moʻui?’

11 Lea kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻoku ʻikai te u fiemālie ʻi he mate ʻae angahala; ka ʻi he tafoki ʻae angahala mei hono hala ke ne moʻui: tafoki mai, tafoki mai mei homou hala kovi: he ko e hā te mou fie mate ai, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli?

12 Ko ia, ʻa koe foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke pehē ki he fānau ʻa hoʻo kakai, ʻE ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻaki ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻa ʻene māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻene fai hala: pea koeʻuhi ko e fai hala ʻae angahala, ʻe ʻikai te ne hinga ai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻoku ne tafoki mei heʻene angahala; pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa moʻui ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻaho ʻoku ne angahala ai.

13 ‌ʻO kau ka pehē ʻeau ki he māʻoniʻoni, ko e moʻoni te ne moʻui; ka ʻoku ne falala pe ia ki heʻene māʻoniʻoni ʻaʻana, mo ne fai hala, ko ʻene māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ʻe ʻikai manatuʻi; ka ʻe mate pe ia, ʻi heʻene kovi ʻaia kuo ne fai.

14 Mo eni foki, ʻo kau ka pehē ʻeau ki he angahala, ko e moʻoni te ke mate koe; pea kapau te ne tafoki mei heʻene angahala, pea fai ʻe ia ʻaia ʻoku totonu mo lelei;

15 Ka toe ʻatu ʻe he angahala ʻae meʻa naʻe tuku ko e fakamoʻoni, mo ne toe ʻatu ʻaia naʻa ne kaihaʻasi, mo ne ʻeveʻeva ʻi he fekau ʻoe fakamoʻui, ʻo ʻikai ke toe fai hala; ko e moʻoni ʻe moʻui pe ia, ʻe ʻikai siʻi te ne mate.

16 ‌ʻE ʻikai toe lau kiate ia ha taha ʻi he ngaahi angahala ʻaia kuo ne fai: kuo ne fai ʻaia ʻoku totonu mo lelei: ko e moʻoni te ne moʻui.

17 “Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa hoʻo kakai, ʻOku ʻikai fai tatau ʻae ʻulungāanga ʻa Sihova: ka ko kinautolu ia ʻoku fai kehekehe ʻenau anga.

18 ‌ʻOka tafoki ʻaia ʻoku māʻoniʻoni mei heʻene māʻoniʻoni, mo ne fai hala, ʻe mate moʻoni ai ia.

19 Ka ko e angahala ʻoka tafoki mai ia mei heʻene angahala, mo ne fai ʻe ia ʻaia ʻoku totonu mo lelei, ʻe moʻui ai ia.

20 Ka ʻoku mou pehē, ʻOku ʻikai fai tatau ʻae ʻulungāanga ʻa Sihova. ʻE fale ʻo ʻIsileli, te u fakamaau ʻakimoutolu ʻo fakatatau ki homou hala taki taha.”

21 Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono hongofulu ma ua taʻu ʻo ʻemau pōpula, ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe māhina, pea mo hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ʻi he māhina, naʻe haʻu kiate au, ha tokotaha naʻe hao mai mei Selūsalema, mo ne pehē mai, Kuo kapa ʻae kolo.

22 Ka ko eni, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke haʻu ʻaia naʻe hola mai naʻe ʻiate au ʻae nima ʻo Sihova, ʻi he efiafi poʻuli; pea naʻe matoʻo ʻa hoku ngutu, ʻo aʻu ki heʻene hoko mai ʻi he pongipongi; naʻe matoʻo ʻa hoku ngutu, naʻe ʻikai te u kei noa.

23 Pea naʻe toki ʻomi ia ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

24 “Foha ʻoe tangata, ko kinautolu ʻoku nofo ki he ngaahi potu liʻaki ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku lea ʻo pehē, ‘Naʻe tokotaha pe ʻa ʻEpalahame, pea ne maʻu ʻe ia ʻae fonua: ka ʻoku mau tokolahi; kuo foaki mai ʻae fonua ko homau tofiʻa.’

25 Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻOku mou kai mo e toto, mo hanga hake homou mata ki homou ngaahi tamapua, mo lilingi toto: pea ʻe ʻomoutolu koā ʻae fonua?

26 ‌ʻOku mou tuʻu mo hoʻomou heletā, ʻoku mou fai meʻa fakalielia, pea ʻoku mou tonoʻi kotoa pē ʻae uaifi ʻo hono kaungāʻapi: pea ʻe ʻomoutolu koā ʻae fonua?

27 Ke ke lea ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko au eni, ʻoku ou moʻui, pea ko e moʻoni ʻe tō hifo ʻi he heletā, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi potu lala, pea mo ia ʻoku ʻi he ʻataʻatā ʻoe ngoueʻanga, te u foaki ia ko e meʻakai ki he fanga manu, pea ko kinautolu ʻe ʻi he kolo tau, pe ʻi he ngaahi ʻanaʻi maka te nau mate ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha.

28 He te u fakatōkilalo ʻae fonua ke lala ʻaupito, pea ʻe ngata ʻae fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo hono mālohi; ʻe ngaongao ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe ʻalu atu ai.

29 Pea te nau toki ʻilo ko Sihova au, ʻo kau ka fakatōkilalo ʻae fonua ke lala ʻaupito, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ʻaia kuo nau fai.”

30 “Ko eni foki, ʻa koe foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoku kei felauʻikoviʻaki koe ʻe he fānau ʻa hoʻo kakai ʻi he veʻe ʻā, pea ʻi he matapā kotoa pē ʻoe fale, mo nau fealēleaʻaki mo taki taha pehē ki hono kāinga, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ou kole ke mou haʻu ke tau fanongo ki ha folofola ʻoku ʻomi meia Sihova.

31 Pea ʻoku nau haʻu kiate koe ʻo hangē ko e haʻu ʻae kakai, pea ʻoku nau nofo ʻi ho ʻao ʻo hangē ko hoku kakai, pea ʻoku nau fanongo ki hoʻo ngaahi lea, ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau fie fai ki ai: he ʻoku nau fakahā ʻaki honau ngutu ʻae ʻofa lahi, ka ʻoku muimui honau loto ki heʻenau manumanu.

32 Pea vakai, ʻoku ke tatau kiate kinautolu mo e fasi mālie lahi ʻa ha taha ʻoku leʻo mālie, mo faʻa tā ke mālie ʻae meʻa tatangi: he ʻoku nau fanongo ki hoʻo ngaahi lea, ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau fai ki ai.

33 Pea ka hoko mai ʻae meʻa ko eni, (vakai, ʻe hoko pe ia, ) te nau toki ʻilo, tā naʻe ai ha palōfita ʻiate kinautolu.”
