Ihaia 31
1 Aue te mate mo te hunga e haere ana ki raro, ki Ihipa ki te tiki whakauru, e okioki ana ki te hoiho; e whakawhirinaki ana ki te hariata, no te mea he maha, ki te kaieke hoiho ano, no te mea he nui te kaha; kahore ia e titiro ki te Mea Tapu o Ihar aira, kahore hoki e rapu tikanga ki a Ihowa!
ʻE malaʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki ʻIsipite ke kumi ʻae tokoni; pea faʻaki ki he fanga hoosi, mo falala ki he ngaahi saliote, koeʻuhi ʻoku nau tokolahi; pea ʻi he kau tangata heka hoosi, koeʻuhi ʻoku nau mālohi ʻaupito; ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau vakai ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, pe kumi kia Sihova!
2 Otiia he whakaaro nui ano ia, ka takina mai ano te kino e ia, e kore ano ana kupu e unuhia e ia: engari ka whakatika ia ki te whare o nga kaimahi i te kino, ki nga whakauru o nga kaimahi i te he.
Ka ʻoku ne poto foki mo ia, pea te ne fakahoko mai ʻae kovi, pea ʻe ʻikai fakafoki ʻene ngaahi folofola: ka te ne tuʻu hake ki he fale ʻoe fai kovi, pea kiate kinautolu ʻoku tokoni ki he kau fai kovi.
3 Na he tangata nei nga Ihipiana, ehara hoki i te Atua; he kikokiko ano hoki o ratou hoiho, ehara i te wairua. Te whakamarokanga mai o to Ihowa ringa, ka hinga te kaiawhina, taka tonu atu te tangata e awhinatia ana, a ka he ngatahi ratou.
Ko eni, ko e tangata pe ʻae kau ʻIsipite, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻOtua; pea ko e kakano pe ʻa ʻenau fanga hoosi, ka ʻoku ʻikai ke laumālie. ʻOku mafao atu ʻe Sihova hono nima, ʻe hinga ia ʻaia naʻe tokoni, pea ko ia naʻe maʻu ʻae tokoni ʻe tō ki lalo, pea te na vaivai fakataha.
4 Ko ta Ihowa kupu hoki tenei ki ahau, Ka rite ki te raiona, ki te kuao raiona e hamama ana ki tana tupapaku, i te mea ka karangarangatia nga hepara tokomaha ki a ia, kahore ona wehi ki to ratou reo, e kore ano ia e whakaririka ki to ratou ngangau; ka pera ano te haerenga iho o Ihowa o nga mano ki te whawhai ki runga ki Maunga Hiona me to reira pukepuke.
He kuo folofola pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻO hangē ko e ngungulu ʻoe laione mo e laione mui ʻi heʻene kai, ʻoka fakataha ʻae kau tauhi kotoa pē ke fai mo ia, ʻe ʻikai te ne manavahē ki honau leʻo, pe fakavaivai ia koeʻuhi ko honau tokolahi: ʻe pehē ʻae hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ke fai ʻae tau, maʻa e moʻunga ko Saione, pea mo hono tafungofunga.
5 Ka rite ki nga manu e rere ana ta Ihowa o nga mano tiaki i Hiruharama, ka tiakina, ka whakaorangia, ka tika atu ia na runga, ka araaraia e ia.
ʻO hangē ko e puna ʻae fanga manu, ʻe fakahaofi pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻa Selūsalema: ʻi heʻene maluʻi te ne fakamoʻui ia; pea ʻi heʻene hāʻele atu te ne fakahaofi ia.”
6 Tahuri ki a ia, kua hohonu rawa nei ta koutou tutu ki a ia, e nga tama a Iharaira.
Tafoki ʻakimoutolu kiate ia ʻaia kuo angatuʻu ʻaupito ki ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
7 A taua ra hoki ka whakahawea te tangata ki ana whakapakoko hiriwa, ki ana whakapakoko koura, i hanga e o koutou ringa ma koutou hei hara.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻe liʻaki ʻe he tangata kotoa pē ʻene ngaahi tamapua siliva, pea mo ʻene ngaahi tamapua koula, ʻaia kuo ngaohi ʻe homou nima kiate kimoutolu ko e angahala.
8 Hei reira te Ahiriana ka hinga i te hoari, ehara na te tangata; a ka pau ia i te hoari, ehara i te tangata: a ka rere atu ia i te hoari, ka meinga hoki ana taitamariki kia utu takoha.
“Pea ʻe toki tō ʻae tangata ʻAsilia ʻi he heletā, kae ʻikai ʻo ha tangata mālohi; pea ʻe kai ia ʻe he heletā, kae ʻikai ʻo ha tangata meʻa vale: ka te ne hola mei he heletā, pea ʻe vaivai ʻene kau talavou.
9 A ka memeha tona kamaka, he wehi hoki, a ka mataku ona rangatira i te kara, e ai ta Ihowa, kei Maunga Hiona nei tana ahi, kei Hiruharama tana oumu.
Pea ʻi he manavahē te ne ʻalu ki hono potu mālohi, pea ʻe manavahē hono ngaahi houʻeiki ki he fuka,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Saione ʻene afi, pea ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema ʻene ngotoʻumu vela.
