Hiva ʻa Solomone 3
1 ʻI he ʻeku ʻi hoku mohenga ʻi he pō, naʻaku kumi kiate ia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai hoku laumālie: ne u kumi, ka naʻe ʻikai ke ʻiloʻi ia,
MALUNA o ko'u wahi moe, i ka po, Ua imi au i ka'u mea i aloha'i; Imi au ia ia, aole nae i loaa.
2 Pea ko eni, te u tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu fano ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻoe kolo mo e ngaahi hala motuʻa, pea te u kumi ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai hoku laumālie: ne u kumi kiate ia, ka naʻe ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi ia.
E ku au iluna, ano, e hele a puni ke kulanakauhale, Ma na alanui, a me na wahi akea, E imi i ka mea a ko'u uhane i aloha'i; Ua imi au ia ia, aole nae i loaa.
3 Naʻe ʻiloʻi au ʻe he kau leʻo ʻoku feʻaluʻaki ʻi he kolo; [pea naʻaku fehuʻi ki ai ʻo pehē], “Kuo mou mamata kiate ia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai hoku laumālie?”
Ua loaa au i ka poe kiai, Ka poe hele a puni ke kulanakauhale; I aku la au, Ua ike anei oukou i ka'u mea i aloha'i?
4 Pea kuo tuku siʻi atu ʻakinautolu, pea u ʻilo ia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai hoku laumālie: pea naʻaku puke ia, pea naʻe ʻikai te u toe tukuange ia, kaeʻoua ke u ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo ʻeku faʻē, mo e potu fale ʻoʻona naʻa ne fanauʻi ai au.
Aole liuliu ko'u hele ana mai o lakou aku, A loaa mai ia'u ka mea a ko'u uhane i aloha'i; Ua lalau au ia ia, aole nae e hookuu aku; A hookomo au ia ia iloko o ka hale o ko'u makuwahine, A iloko o ke keena o ka mea nana au i hanau mai.
5 ʻE ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Selūsalema, ʻoku ou fekau kiate kimoutolu, ʻi hoʻomou ʻofa ki he fanga kāseli mo e hainite ʻoe vao, ke ʻoua naʻa mou ueʻi pe fafangu ʻa hoku ʻofaʻanga, kaeʻoua ke faʻiteliha pe ia.
Ke kauoha aku nei au ia oukou, e na kaikamahine o Ierusalema, Ma na anetelope a me na dia o ke kula, E hooluliluli ole aku oukou, a e hoala ole i ka'u mea i aloha'i, a ala wale mai ia.
6 Ko hai eni ʻoku haʻu mei he toafa, ʻoku hangē ko e pou ko e kohu ʻoe afi, pea kuo fakanamu lelei ʻaki ʻae mula mo e laipeno, mo e ngaahi kakala kotoa pē mei he kau fakatau?
Owai keia e hoea mai ana mai ka waonahele mai, E like me na punohu uwahi? Ua moani mai kona mura, a me koua libano, A me na mea ala a pau a ka mea kalepa.
7 Vakai ki he mohenga ʻo Solomone, ʻoku kāpui ia ʻe he kau tangata toʻa ʻe toko onongofulu, mei he kau tangata toʻa ʻo ʻIsileli.
Aia hoi, o kona wahi e moe ai, no Solomona ia, He kanaono kanaka koa [e ku ana] a puni ia, He poe ikaika o ka Iseraela.
8 ʻOku nau taki taha toʻo ʻae heletā, he ʻoku nau maheni ai mo e tau: ʻoku taki taha ai ʻene heletā ki hono tuʻa tenga, naʻa ai ha manavahē ʻi he poʻuli.
Ua lalau lakou a pau i na pahikaua, He poe akamai lakou i ke kaua; Aia no ka pahi a kela mea keia mea ma kona uha, No ka makau i ka po.
9 Naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone ha mohenga moʻona, mei he ngaahi ʻakau ʻo Lepanoni.
Hana iho la ke alii o Solomona i hale auamo nona, I ka laau o Lebanona.
10 Naʻa ne ngaohi ʻaki ʻae siliva ʻa hono pou, pea ko hono faliki ko e koula, ko hono ʻufiʻufi ko e kulokula, pea faliki ʻaki ʻi loto ʻae ʻofa ki he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Selūsalema.
Hana iho la oia i na kia he kala; A o ke kino, hana iho la i ke gula; O ka noho ona, he mea ulaula ia; Ua kipapaia kona walua i ke aloha, No na kaikamahine mai o Ierusalema.
11 ʻE ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Saione, mou ʻalu atu, ʻo vakai kia Solomone, ko e tuʻi, mo e tatā fakatuʻi naʻe tatā ʻaki ia ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻene fakamaʻu mali, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe fiefia ʻa hono loto.
E puka iwaho, e na kaikamahine o Ziona, a e ike i ke alii ia Solomona, Me kona papale alii, ka mea a kona makuwahine i kau maluna ona, I kona la i mareia'i, i ka la i olioli ai kona naau.
