< Siosiua 4 >
1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he lava atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē,
2 “Fili ha kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua mei he kakai, ko e tangata ʻe tokotaha mei he faʻahinga kotoa pē,”
3 pea mou fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Mou toʻo mai mei loto Sioatani, mei he potu naʻe tuʻumaʻu ai ʻae vaʻe ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, ʻae maka ʻe hongofulu mā ua, pea mou fua ia ʻo ʻave ʻo tuku ʻi homou ʻapitanga, ʻaia te mou mohe ai ʻi he poōni.”
4 Pea fekau ʻe Siosiua ke haʻu ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu mā toko ua, “ʻAkinautolu naʻa ne fili ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e tangata pe taha mei he faʻahinga kotoa pē:
5 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua kiate kinautolu, Mou muʻomuʻa ʻi he puha tapu ʻo Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ki loto Sioatani, pea mou toʻo hake taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene maka ki hono uma, ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli.
6 Koeʻuhi ke hoko ia ko e fakaʻilonga, ʻoka fehuʻi ʻe hoʻomou fānau ki heʻenau mātuʻa ʻamui, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi maka ni?
7 Pea te mou tala kiate kinautolu, naʻe motuhi ʻae vai ʻo Sioatani mei he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova; ʻi heʻene aʻa ʻi Sioatani, naʻe motu ua ʻae vai ʻo Sioatani: pea ko e ngaahi maka ni ko e meʻa fakamanatu tuʻumaʻu ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo taʻengata.”
8 Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova, ʻonau toʻo hake ʻae maka ʻe hongofulu mā ua mei loto Sioatani, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻa nau fua ʻo ʻave ia ki he potu naʻa nau mohe ai, ʻo tuku ia ʻi ai.
9 Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Siosiua ʻae maka ʻe hongofulu mā ua ʻi loto Sioatani, ʻi he potu naʻe tuʻu ai ʻae vaʻe ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia naʻe haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava pea ʻoku ʻi ai ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
10 He ko e kau taulaʻeiki naʻe haʻamo, ʻae puha naʻe tuʻu ʻi loto Sioatani, ke ʻoua ke ʻosi hono fai ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua ke ne fekau ki he kakai, ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kia Siosiua: pea naʻe fai fakatoʻotoʻo ʻae kakai ʻonau aʻa atu.
11 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻae aʻa ʻo lava atu kotoa pē ʻae kakai, naʻe toki haʻamo atu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae puha ʻo Sihova, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
12 Pea ko e fānau ʻa Lupeni, mo e fānau ʻa Kata, mo hono vaeua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, naʻa nau ʻalu muʻomuʻa mo e mahafutau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese kiate kinautolu:
13 Ko e toko fā mano nai, naʻe toʻo mahafutau naʻe ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ki he tau, ʻi he ngaahi tafangafanga ʻo Seliko.
14 Naʻe fakahikihiki ʻe Sihova ʻa Siosiua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻIsileli kotoa pē: pea naʻa nau manavahē kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻenau manavahē kia Mōsese, ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui.
15 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē,
16 Fekau ki he kau taulaʻeiki ʻoku haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fakamoʻoni, koeʻuhi kenau ʻalu hake mei Sioatani.
17 Ko ia naʻe fekau ai ʻe Siosiua ki he kau taulaʻeiki, ʻo pehē, Mou ʻalu hake mei Sioatani.
18 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻalu hake ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia naʻe haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova mei loto Sioatani, pea kuo hiki ʻae ʻaofivaʻe ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ki he kelekele mōmoa, naʻe toe tafe mai leva ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo Sioatani ki honau potu, pea toe lōfia hono ngaahi matavai ʻo hangē ko ʻene anga.
19 Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kakai mei Sioatani ʻi hono hongofulu [ʻoe ʻaho ]ʻo hono ʻuluaki māhina, pea ʻapitanga ʻi Kilikali, ʻi he feituʻu hahake ʻo Seliko.
20 Pea ko e maka ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻaia naʻe toʻo mei Sioatani, naʻe tō ia ʻe Siosiua ʻi Kilikali.
21 Pea naʻa ne lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “ʻOka fehuʻi ʻe hoʻomou fānau ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai ʻamui, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi maka ni?
22 Te mou fakahā ki hoʻomou fānau, ʻo pehē, naʻe aʻa ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he Sioatani ni ʻi he kelekele mōmoa.
23 He ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua naʻe fakamōmoa ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo Sioatani mei homou ʻao, ke mou hoko atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ki he Tahi Kulokula, ʻaia naʻa ne fakamōmoa ʻi homau ʻao, ke ʻoua ke mau lava atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha;
24 Koeʻuhi ke hoko ʻo ʻilo ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, mo hono māfimafi: pea ke mou manavahē kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻo taʻengata.”
