Selemaia 17
1 “Kuo tohi ʻae hia ʻa Siuta ʻaki ʻae peni ukamea, pea mo e mata ʻoe taiamoni: kuo tongi ia ʻi he kakano ʻo honau loto, pea ki he ngaahi nifo ʻo homou ngaahi ʻesifeilaulauʻanga.
“Wɔde dadeɛ twerɛdua akrukyire Yuda bɔne, dadeɛ twerɛdua a ano te sɛ twerɛboɔ, wɔ wɔn akoma apono so ne wɔn afɔrebukyia mmɛn so.
2 ʻI he lolotonga ʻae manatuʻi ʻe heʻenau fānau ki heʻenau ngaahi ʻesifeilaulauʻanga mo e ngaahi vao tapu mo e ʻakau lau maʻuiʻui ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga māʻolunga.
Mpo, wɔn mma kae wɔn afɔrebukyia ne Asera afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ nnua a adendan no nkyɛn ne nkokoɔ atentene no so.
3 ʻE hoku moʻunga, ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi hoʻo ngoue mo hoʻo koloa kotoa pē te u foaki ke vetea, pea mo ho potu māʻolunga kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e angahala, ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻo ho fonua kotoa pē.

4 Pea ʻe hiki koe mei he tofiʻa, ʻaia naʻaku foaki kiate koe; pea te u pule ke ke tauhi ki ho ngaahi fili ʻi he fonua ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo: koeʻuhi kuo mou tutu ʻae afi ʻi hoku houhau, ʻaia ʻe vela ʻo taʻengata.”
Mo ankasa mfomsoɔ enti, mobɛhwere agyapadeɛ a mede maa mo no. Mede mo bɛyɛ nkoa ama mo atamfoɔ wɔ asase a monnim soɔ so, ɛfiri sɛ moahwanyane mʼabufuo, na ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.”
5 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Ke malaʻia ʻae tangata ʻoku falala ki he tangata, pea ʻoku ne nima ʻaki ʻae kakano, pea kuo mole hono loto meia Sihova,
Sei na Awurade seɛ, “Nnome nka deɛ ɔde ne ho to onipa so, deɛ ɔde ne ho to ɔhonam so pɛ nʼahoɔden na nʼakoma dane firi Awurade ho.
6 Koeʻuhi ʻe hangē ia ko e mohuku mae ʻi he toafa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ʻoka haʻu ʻae lelei; ka te ne nofo pe ʻi he ngaahi potu laʻā ʻoe toafa, ʻi he fonua lala taʻehanokakai.
Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ wira a ɛwɔ nsase tamaa so; sɛ yiedie ba a, ɔrenhunu, ɔbɛtena anweatam a awoɔ so, ne nkyene asase a obi nte soɔ so.
7 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻoku falala kia Sihova, pea ko hono ʻamanaki leleiʻanga ʻa Sihova.
“Nhyira nka onipa a ɔde ne ho to Awurade so, na nʼanidasoɔ wɔ ne mu.
8 Koeʻuhi ʻe hangē ia ko e ʻakau kuo tō ʻi he veʻe vai, ʻoku totolo atu hono ngaahi aka ki he vaitafe, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ʻae pupuha, ka ʻe mata pe hono lau; pea ʻe ʻikai vaivai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu laʻā, pea ʻe ʻikai fakangata hono fua.
Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ dua a wɔadua no nsuo ho na ne nhini tene kɔ nsuo no mu. Sɛ ahuhuro ba a, ɔnsuro; ne nhahan yɛ frɔmm mmerɛ nyinaa. Ɔnni ɔhaw biara wɔ afe a osuo ntɔ mu na ɛkɔ so so aba daa.”
9 “ʻOku kākā lahi taha pe ʻae loto ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻoku fungani kovi: ko hai te ne faʻa ʻilo ia?
Akoma yɛ nnaadaa sen adeɛ nyinaa na ano nni aduro. Hwan na ɔbɛte nʼase?
10 Ko au Sihova ʻoku ou vakili ʻae loto, ʻoku ou hakule ʻae ngaahi mahalo, ke foaki ki he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene ngaahi ʻulungāanga, pea tatau mo e fua ʻo ʻene faianga.”
“Me Awurade, mepɛɛpɛɛ akoma mu na mehwehwɛ adwene mu, gyina so de tua onipa ka sɛdeɛ nʼabrabɔ teɛ.”
11 ʻO hangē ko e manupuna ʻoku fōfoaʻi ʻae ngaahi fua naʻe ʻikai te ne fakatō; ʻe pehē foki ia ʻoku tānaki koloa taʻetotonu, ʻe ʻalu ia mei ai ʻi he lolotonga ʻo hono ngaahi ʻaho, pea ʻe vale ia ʻi hono ikuʻanga.
Sɛdeɛ akokɔhwedeɛ a ɔhwane nkosua a ɛnyɛ ɔno na ɔtoeɛ no, saa ara na onipa a ɔnya sika a ɔmfa ɛkwan pa so teɛ. Sɛ wɔbu ne nkwa nna mu mmienu a wɔbɛgya no mu, na awieeɛ no, ne kwasea bɛda adi.

Animuonyam ahennwa a ɛsi kronkronbea hɔ no firi ahyɛaseɛ no, ɛhɔ na yɛsom.
13 ʻE Sihova, ko e ʻamanaki leleiʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻe mā ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku liʻaki koe, pea ʻe tohi ki he kelekele ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻalu meiate koe, koeʻuhi kuo nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ko e matavai ʻoe ngaahi vai moʻui.
Ao, Awurade, Israel anidasoɔ, wɔn a wɔpa wʼakyi nyinaa ani bɛwu. Wɔn a wɔtwe wɔn ho firi wo ho no, wɔbɛsie wɔn ɛfiri sɛ wɔagya Awurade a ɔyɛ nkwa asutire.
14 ʻE Sihova, ke ke faitoʻo kiate au, pea te u moʻui; fakamoʻui au, pea te u moʻui: he ko koe ʻoku ou fakafetaʻi ki ai.
Sa me yadeɛ Ao, Awurade, na me ho bɛtɔ me; gye me na mɛnya nkwa, na wo ne ɔbaako a mekamfo wo.
15 Vakai, ʻoku nau pehē kiate au, “Ko e fē ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova? Tuku ia ke hoko mai.”
Wɔbisa me daa sɛ, “Ɛhe na Awurade asɛm no wɔ? Ma ɛmmra mu seesei!”
16 Pea ko au, naʻe ʻikai te u tuku vave ʻeku muimui kiate koe: pea ʻoku ke ʻafioʻi naʻe ʻikai te u manako ki he ʻaho fakailifia; ko ia naʻe haʻu mei hoku loungutu naʻe ʻi ho ʻao ʻoʻou.
Mennwane mfirii mʼadwuma sɛ wo dwanhwɛfoɔ; wonim sɛ mempɛɛ abasamutuo da. Deɛ ɛfiri mʼanom yɛ pefee wɔ wʼanim.
17 ʻOua naʻa ke ʻiate au ko e fakailifia; ko koe ko ʻeku ʻamanaki leleiʻanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe kovi.
Nhunahuna me; wo ne me dwanekɔbea wɔ amanehunu da.
18 Tuku ke mā ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakatangaʻi au, kaeʻoua naʻa tuku au ke u mā: tuku ke nau manavahē, kaeʻoua naʻa tuku au ke u manavahē: ʻomi kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, pea fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae fakaʻauha lahi.
Ma wɔn a wɔtaa me anim nguase, na yi me firi ahohora mu. Ma wɔn mmɔ hu, nanso mma me bo ntu. Ma amanehunu da no mmra wɔn so; fa ɔhawprenu sɛe wɔn.
19 Naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻAlu ʻo tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fānau ʻa hoku kakai, ʻaia ʻoku hū ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea mo ia ʻoku nau ʻalu ai kituʻa, pea ki he ngaahi matapā kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema;
Yei ne deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me, “Kɔ na kɔgyina nnipa no ɛpono a Yuda ahemfo di hɔ ahyɛnfirie no; kɔgyina Yerusalem apono a aka no nso ano.
20 Pea ke lea kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, Mou fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea mo Siuta kotoa pē, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, ʻoku hū ʻi he ngaahi matapā ni.
Ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Montie Awurade asɛm, Ao Yuda ahemfo ne Yudafoɔ nyinaa ne wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem a wɔfa saa apono yi mu.
21 ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova; Mou tokanga kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa fua ha kavenga ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pe ʻomi ia ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻo Selūsalema;
Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: Monhwɛ yie na moansoa nnesoa Homeda anaa moamfa amfa Yerusalem apono mu.
22 Pea ʻoua naʻa ʻave ha kavenga kituʻa mei homou ngaahi fale ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ha ngāue, kae fakahaohaoa ʻae ʻaho tapu, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻaku fekau ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.

24 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, kapau te mou tokanga lahi kiate au, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻomi ha kavenga ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻi he ʻaho tapu, kae fakahaohaoa ʻae ʻaho tapu, ke ʻoua naʻa fai ha ngāue ʻi ai:

26 Pea te nau haʻu mei he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea mei he ngaahi potu ofi ki Selūsalema, pea mei he fonua ʻo Penisimani, pea mei he ngaahi toafa, pea mei ne ngaahi moʻunga, pea mei he potu tonga, ʻo ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau, mo e ngaahi feilaulau meʻakai, mo e meʻa namu kakala, ʻo ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakafetaʻi, ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
