Kenehi 44
1 Na ka whakahau ia ki te kaitohutohu o tona whare, ka mea, Whakakiia nga peke a aua tangata ki nga kai e taea te whawhao ki roto, me maka ano te moni a tenei, a tenei, ki te waha o tana peke.
Pea fekau ʻe ia ki he tauhi ʻo hono fale ʻo pehē, “Fakapito ʻaki ʻae meʻakai ʻae ngaahi tangai ʻae kau tangata ni, ʻo fakatatau mo ia te nau faʻa fua, pea ai ʻae paʻanga ʻae tangata taki taha ki he ngutu ʻo ʻene tangai.
2 Whaowhina hoki taku kapu, te kapu hiriwa, ki te waha o te peke a te whakaotinga, me te moni ano mo tana witi. Na rite tonu tana i mea ai ki ta Hohepa kupu i ki ai.
Pea ai ʻeku ipu, ʻae ipu siliva ki he ngutuʻi tangai ʻae kimui, pea mo e paʻanga totongi ʻo ʻene koane.” Pea ne fai ʻe ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Siosefa.
3 A, ka marama te ata, ka tonoa atu aua tangata, ratou me a ratou kaihe.
Pea pongipongi hake ʻi he maʻa ʻae ʻaho, naʻe tuku ʻae kau tangata ke ʻalu, ʻakinautolu mo e nau fanga ʻasi.
4 A, no to ratou haerenga atu i te pa, kihai i matara, ka mea a Hohepa ki te kaitohutohu o tona whare, Whakatika, whaia aua tangata; a, ka mau ratou i a koe, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha i utua ai e koutou te pai ki te kino?
Pea kuo nau ʻalu mei he kolo, pea naʻe teʻeki ai mamaʻo fau, pea pehē ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene tauhi, “Tuʻu, ʻo tuli ʻae kau tangata; pea ʻoka ke ka maʻu ʻakinautolu, pea ke lea pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘Ko e hā kuo mou totongi kovi ai ki he lelei?’
5 Ehara ianei tenei i te mea e inu ai toku ariki, i tana hoki e kite tohu ai ia? ka kino ta koutou mahi.
ʻIkai ko ia ia ʻoku inu mei ai ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki, mo ia ʻoku ne fai ai ʻene ʻilo meʻa? Kuo mou fai kovi ʻi he meʻa ni.”
6 Na ka mau ratou i a ia, a korerotia ana e ia aua kupu ki a ratou.
Pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻakinautolu, ʻo ne lea ʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi lea ko ia.
7 A ka mea ratou ki a ia, He aha enei kupu i korerotia ai e toku ariki? Aue, kia meatia tenei mea e au pononga.
Pea nau pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku lea pehē ai homauʻeiki? Ke mamaʻo ʻaupito mei hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae fai ha meʻa pehē.
8 Nana, ko te moni i kitea e matou i te waha o a matou peke, i whakahokia mai e matou ki a koe i te whenua o Kanaana: a kia tahae matou hei aha i te hiriwa, i te koura ranei, i roto i te whare o tou ariki?
Vakai, ko e ngaahi paʻanga naʻa mau ʻilo ʻi he ngutu ʻoe mau tangai, kuo mau toe ʻomi ia kiate koe, mei he fonua ko Kēnani: pea ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻemau kaihaʻa ha siliva pe ha koula mei he fale ʻo homauʻeiki?
9 Ki te mea ka kitea taua mea ki tetahi o au pononga, kia mate ia, kia waiho ano matou hei pononga ma toku ariki.
Ko ia te ke ʻilo ia ki ai ʻi hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, tuku ke mate ia, pea te mau nofo ko e kau pōpula ki heʻemau ʻeiki foki.”
10 A ka mea ia, Kia rite ano hoki aianei ki ta koutou i mea ai: e kitea taua mea ki tetahi, hei pononga ia maku; a kahore he whakahe mo koutou.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko eni, ke hoko ʻo tatau mo hoʻomou lea: ko ia ʻe ʻilo ai ia, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ia, pea ʻe taʻehalaia ʻakinautolu.”
11 Na hohoro tonu ta ratou tuku iho i tana peke, i tana peke, ki te whenua, a whakatuwheratia ana e ratou tana peke, tana peke.
Pea naʻa nau fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo tuku hifo, taki taha ʻae tangata ʻa ʻene tangai ki he kelekele, pea toʻo taki taha ʻa ʻene tangai.
12 Na ka rapu ia, timata i te matamua a whakamutu ki te whakaotinga: a ka kitea te kapu i roto i te peke a Pineamine.
Pea ne kumi ia, ʻo kamata ʻi he ʻuluaki, ʻo aʻu ki he kimui; pea naʻe ʻilo ʻae ipu ʻi he tangai ʻa Penisimani.
13 Na ka haehae ratou i o ratou kakahu, a whakawaha ana e ratou tana kaihe, tana kaihe, hoki ana ki te pa.
Pea naʻa nau haehae honau kofu, ʻo toe ʻai ʻae kavenga taki taha ʻae tangata ki he ʻasi, ʻo nau foki ki he kolo.
14 Na ka haere a Hura ratou ko ona tuakana, ko ona teina, ki te whare o Hohepa; a i reira tonu ia: a tapapa ana ki te whenua i tona aroaro.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Siuta mo hono ngaahi tokoua ki he fale ʻo Siosefa; he naʻe kei ʻi ai ia; pea nau foʻohifo ʻi hono ʻao ki he kelekele.
15 Na ka mea a Hohepa ki a ratou, He aha tenei mea i meatia nei e koutou? kihai ranei koutou i mahara he tangata matakite te penei me ahau nei?
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni kuo mou fai? He naʻe ʻikai te mou mahalo, ko e tangata hangē ko au, te u faʻa ʻiloʻi.”
16 Na ka mea a Hura, He aha ta matou e mea ai ki toku ariki? he aha ta matou e korero ai? me aha ranei hei whakatika i a matou? kua kitea e te Atua te hara o au pononga; na, tenei matou hei pononga ma toku ariki, matou tahi hoki ko te tangata i kit ea nei te kapu ki a ia.
Pea pehēange ʻe Siuta, “Ko e hā te mau lea ʻaki ki homauʻeiki? Pea te mau pehē ko e hā? Pea ʻe fēfē ʻemau fakatonuhia ʻakimautolu? Kuo ʻafioʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae halaia ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki; vakai, ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu ʻa homauʻeiki, ʻakimautolu mo ia foki kuo ʻilo ki ai ʻae ipu ni.”
17 Ano ra ko ia, Engari, kia meatia tenei e ahau! Ko te tangata i kitea nei te kapu ki a ia, ko ia hei pononga maku; ko koutou ia, haere marie koutou ki runga, ki to koutou papa.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Tapu mo e ʻOtua ʻa ʻeku fai pehē: ka ko e tangata kuo ʻilo ʻi hono nima ʻae ipu ni, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ia; ka ko kimoutolu, mou ʻalu fiemālie pe ki hoʻomou tamai.”
18 Katahi ka whakatata a Hura ki a ia, ka mea, Tukua tau pononga, e toku ariki, kia korero i tetahi kupu ki nga taringa o toku ariki, kei mura hoki tou riri ki tau pononga: ko korua hoki ko Parao rite tahi.
Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻa Siuta kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko ʻeku ʻeiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuku ke lea siʻi pe ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki he fofonga ʻo hoku ʻeiki, pea ʻoua naʻa ke tuputāmaki mai ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ke tatau mo Felo.
19 I ui mai toku ariki ki ana pononga, i mea, He papa ranei to koutou, he teina ranei?
Naʻe fehuʻi ʻa homauʻeiki ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOku ai hoʻomou tamai, pe ha tehina?’
20 A ka mea matou ki toku ariki, He papa ano to matou, he koroheke, me tetahi tama o tona koroheketanga, he mea iti; kua mate hoki tona tuakana, a ko ia anake i mahue o nga tamariki a tona whaea, e aroha ana hoki tona papa ki a ia.
Pea naʻa mau tala ki homauʻeiki, ‘ʻOku ai ʻemau tamai ko e tangata motuʻa, pea mo e tama ʻo ʻene motuʻa, ko e tamasiʻi siʻi; pea kuo pekia hono tokoua, pea ko ia tokotaha pe kuo toe ʻi heʻene fale, pea ʻoku ʻofa ʻene tamai kiate ia.’
21 Na ka mea mai koe ki au pononga, Kawea mai ia ki raro nei, ki ahau, kia tau atu ai oku kanohi ki a ia.
Pea naʻa ke pehē ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ‘Omi ia ki heni kiate au, koeʻuhi ke u sio fakapapau kiate ia.’
22 Katahi matou ka mea ki toku ariki, E kore e ahei kia whakarerea tona papa e taua tamaiti: no te mea ka mate tona papa ki te mahue i a ia.
Pea naʻa mau tala ki heʻemau ʻeiki, ‘ʻE ʻikai faʻa māvae ʻae tama mo ʻene tamai: he kapau te ne tuku ʻene tamai, ʻe pekia ai ʻene tamai:’
23 Na ka mea koe ki au pononga, Ki te kahore to koutou teina, te whakaotinga, e haere tahi mai i a koutou ki raro nei, e kore koutou e kite i toku kanohi a muri ake nei.
Pea naʻa ke pehē ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ‘Kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu homou tehina, ʻe ʻikai te mou toe mamata ki hoku mata.’
24 A, i to matou haerenga ki runga, ki tau pononga, ki toku papa, na, ka korerotia e matou nga kupu a toku ariki ki a ia.
Pea ʻi heʻemau hoko ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai, naʻa mau fakahā kiate ia ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa homauʻeiki.
25 A ka mea mai to matou papa, Hoki atu ki te hoko i tetahi wahi kai ma tatou.
Pea pehē ʻe heʻemau tamai, ‘Toe ʻalu ʻo fakatau ʻetau meʻakai siʻi.’
26 Na ka mea matou, E kore e ahei ki a matou te haere ki raro: ki te mea kei a matou to matou teina, te whakaotinga, na, ka haere matou ki raro: no te mea hoki e kore e taea e matou te titiro ki te kanohi o taua tangata, ki te kahore to matou teina, te whakaotinga, i a matou.
“Pea naʻa mau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mau faʻa ʻalu: kapau ʻe ʻiate kimautolu homau tehina, te mau ʻalu hifo: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te mau mamata ki he mata ʻoe tangata, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu homau tehina.’
27 Na ka mea tau pononga, toku papa, ki a matou, E mohio ana koutou, tokorua nga tama a maua ko taku wahine:
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai, kiate kimautolu, ‘ʻOku mou ʻilo naʻe fanauʻi kiate au ʻe hoku uaifi ʻae tama ʻe toko ua:’
28 A i haere atu tetahi i toku taha, i mea hoki ahau, He pono kua haea putia ia; a kahore ahau i kite i a ia a mohoa noa nei:
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokotaha ʻiate au, pea naʻaku pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni kuo haehae ke iikiiki ia; pea talu mei ai naʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata kiate ia:’
29 Ki te tangohia ano hoki tenei e koutou i toku aroaro, a ka pono he aitua ki a ia, katahi ka meinga e koutou kia heke tangi atu toku koroheketanga ki te po. (Sheol h7585)
Pea kapau te mou ʻave eni ʻiate au foki, pea hoko ha kovi kiate ia, te mou ō hifo hoku ʻuluhinā ʻi he mamahi ki he faʻitoka. (Sheol h7585)
30 Heoi, ki te haere atu ahau ki tau pononga, ki toku papa, a kahore taua tamaiti i a matou; kei roto nei hoki i tona wairua tona wairua e paihere ana;
Pea ko eni, ʻoka hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au ki heʻeku tamai, pea ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ʻae tama; ko e meʻa ʻi he feohi fakataha ʻene moʻui mo e moʻui ʻae tama;
31 Na, kei tona kitenga kua kore tenei tama, ka mate ia: a ka meinga e matou, e au pononga, te koroheketanga o tau pononga, o to matou papa, kia heke tangi atu ki te po. (Sheol h7585)
ʻE hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka mamata ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ʻae tama, ʻe pekia ia; pea ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki te mau fakahifo ʻae ʻuluhinā ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai ʻi he mamahi, ki he faʻitoka. (Sheol h7585)
32 I waiho hoki tau pononga hei utu mo tenei tama ki toku papa, i mea ahau, Ki te kahore ia e kawea mai e ahau ki a koe, na, hei whakahenga ahau ma toku papa i nga ra katoa.
He naʻe hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ko e fetongi ʻoe tama ki heʻene tamai, ʻo pehē, Kapau ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe, pea ke ʻiate au hono kovi ki heʻeku tamai ʻo taʻengata.
33 Heoi kia noho ra tau pononga aianei hei utu mo tenei tama, hei pononga ma toku ariki; a kia haere tahi te tama i ona tuakana ki runga.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke nofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e pōpula ki heʻeku ʻeiki, ko e fetongi ʻoe tama; kae tuku ke ʻalu ʻae tama mo hono ngaahi taʻokete.
34 Me pehea hoki ahau e haere ai ki runga, ki toku papa, ki te kahore te tama i ahau? kei kite ahau i te kino e pa ana ki toku papa.
He koeʻuhi, ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻeku faʻa ʻalu ki heʻeku tamai, kae ʻikai ʻiate au ʻae tama? Telia naʻaku mamata ki he kovi ʻe hoko ki heʻeku tamai.”
