Heremaia 15

1 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ahakoa i tu a Mohi raua ko Hamuera ki toku aroaro, e kore ahau e whai ngakau ki tenei iwi: maka atu ratou i toku aroaro, kia haere atu ratou.

Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Kapau ʻe tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa Mōsese mo Samuela, ʻe ʻikai te u tokanga ki he kakai ni: kapusi ʻakinautolu ʻi hoku ʻao, pea tuku ke nau ʻalu atu.

2 Na ki te mea ratou ki a koe, Me haere matou ki hea? katahi koe ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko nga mea mo te mate, ki te mate; a ko nga mea ma te hoari, ki te hoari; ko nga mea hoki mo te hemokai, ki te hemokai; a ko nga mea mo te whakarau, ki te whakarau.

Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻo kapau te nau lea kiate koe, Te mau ʻalu ki fē? pea te ke tala kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; Ko kinautolu, kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he mate, te nau mate; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku tuʻutuʻuni ki he heletā, te nau ʻi he heletā; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku tuʻutuʻuni ki he honge, te nau ʻi he honge; pea ko kinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he fakapōpula, te nau ʻalu ki he fakapōpula.

3 E wha hoki nga tu mea e whakaritea e ahau mo ratou, e ai ta Ihowa: ko te hoari hei whakamate, ko nga kuri hei haehae, a ko nga manu o te rangi, ko nga kararehe hoki o te whenua hei kai, hei whakamoti.

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Te u tuʻutuʻuni kiate kinautolu ʻae faʻahinga meʻa ʻe fā: ko e heletā ke tāmateʻi, ko e fanga kulī ke haehae, ko e manu ʻoe ʻatā, pea mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe fonua, ke folo hifo pea fakaʻauha.

4 Ka tukua hoki ratou e ahau kia poipoia haeretia i waenga i nga kingitanga katoa o te whenua, mo ta Manahi tama a Hetekia kingi o Hura, mo tana i mea ai ki Hiruharama.

Pea te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻave ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, koeʻuhi ko Manase ko e foha ʻo Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa naʻa ne fai ʻi Selūsalema.”

5 Ko wai oti e tohu i a koe, e Hiruharama? ko wai ranei e tangi ki a koe? ko wai e peka atu ki te ui, kei te ora ranei koe?

“He ko hai ʻe ʻofa kiate koe, ʻE Selūsalema? Pe ko hai ʻe mamahi mo koe? Pe ko hai ʻe afe atu ke fehuʻi pe ʻoku ke fēfē?

6 Kua whakarerea ahau e koe, e ai ta Ihowa, kua hoki whakamuri koe: koia i totoro atu ai toku ringa ki a koe, i whakamotitia ai koe; kua hoha ahau ki te ripeneta.

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, kuo ke fakaholomui meiate au; ko ia te u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, mo fakaʻauha koe; kuo u fiu ʻi he kātaki.

7 Kua powhiriwhiritia ratou e ahau ki te mea powhiriwhiri i nga kuwaha o te whenua; kua whakapania ratou e ahau i te tamariki, kua ngaro i ahau taku iwi; kahore ratou i tahuri mai i o ratou ara.

Pea te u tapili ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae tapili ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻoe fonua; te u toʻo ʻenau fānau, te u fakaʻauha ʻa hoku kakai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau taʻetafoki mei honau ngaahi hala.

8 Ko a ratou pouaru i toku aroaro kua tokomaha atu i te onepu o nga moana: kua kawea e ahau ki a ratou, hei hoariri mo te whaea o nga taitama, he kaipahua i te poutumarotanga: kua meinga e ahau kia pa whakarere ki a ia te pawera me te tumatatenga.

Kuo fakatokolahi ʻi hoku ʻao honau kau fefine ʻoku mate honau husepāniti ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ʻoneʻone ʻoe ngaahi tahi: kuo u ʻomi ki heʻenau faʻē ha tokotaha ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻi he hoʻatā: kuo u pule kiate ia ke fai ia fakafokifā pe, ko e ngaahi fakailifia ki he kolo.

9 Ngohe kau te wahine ka tokowhitu nei ana tamariki; kua hemo tona wairua; kua rere tona ra i te mea ko te awatea nei ano; kua whakama hoki ia, kua numinumi kau: ka tukua atu hoki e ahau o ratou morehu ki te hoari i te aroaro o o ratou hoariri, e a i ta Ihowa.

Pea kuo vaivai ia ʻaia kuo fāʻeleʻi ʻae toko fitu: kuo ne tuku hake hono laumālie; kuo tō hifo hono laʻā ʻi he kei ʻaho: kuo mā ia mo puputuʻu: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku toe te u tukuange ki he heletā ʻi he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.”

10 Aue, toku mate, e toku whaea, i whanau mai ahau i roto i koe he tangata totohe, he tangata ngangare ki te whenua katoa! kihai ahau i whakatarewa atu i te moni whakatupu, kihai ano te moni whakatupu i whakatarewaina mai ki ahau; otiia kei te kang a ratou katoa ki ahau.

ʻA ʻeku faʻē, ʻoku ou malaʻia, koeʻuhi kuo ke fāʻeleʻi au ko e tangata faʻa fekeʻikeʻi pea ko e tangata fakakikihi mo māmani kotoa pē! Pea ʻoku teʻeki ai te u nō ha meʻa ki he totongi, pea naʻe ʻikai nō kiate au ʻe ha tangata ki he totongi; ka ʻoku nau taki taha kapeʻi au.

11 I mea a Ihowa, He pono ka whakakahangia koe e ahau mo te pai; he pono ka meinga e ahau te hoariri kia inoi ki a koe i te wa o te he, i te wa o te mamae.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, Ko e moʻoni ʻe lelei hoʻo hako; te u pule ki he fili ke ne fai lelei kiate koe ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe kovi mo e mamahi.

12 E taea ranei e tetahi te wahi te rino, te rino o te raki, te parahi ranei?

‌ʻE fesiʻi ʻe he ukamea ʻae ukamea mei he tokelau, pea mo e sitili?

13 Ka hoatu e ahau ou rawa me ou taonga hei taonga parakete, kahore hoki he utu, a hei mea tera mo ou hara katoa, ara i ou rohe katoa.

“Pea te u foaki hoʻo meʻa mo hoʻo koloa ke vetea taʻehatotongi, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ngaahi angahala, ʻi he ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.

14 A ka meinga ratou e ahau kia haere tahi me ou hoariri ki te whenua kihai i mohiotia e koe: no te mea kei te ngiha he ahi i ahau e riri nei, ka tonu atu ki a koutou.

Pea te u pule ke ke ʻalu mo ho ngaahi fili ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻiloa; he kuo tutu ʻae afi ʻi hoku houhau, ʻaia ʻe vela ai ʻakimoutolu.”

15 E Ihowa, e mohio ana koe; mahara ki ahau, tirohia ahau, rapua he utu mo toku matenga i oku kaitukino; kaua ahau e tangohia atu i a koe ka puhoi nei ki te riri: kia mohio koe, mou ahau i tawaia ai.

“ʻE Sihova ʻoku ke ʻafioʻi: manatuʻi au, pea ʻaʻahi kiate au, pea totongi kiate kinautolu kuo fakatangaʻi au; ʻoua naʻa ke ʻave au koeʻuhi ko hoʻo kātaki ʻofa: ke ke ʻafio kuo u kātaki ʻae manuki koeʻuhi ko koe.

16 I kitea au kupu, a kainga ake e ahau; a ki ahau hei whakakaoa, hei whakahari au kupu mo toku ngakau: kua huaina hoki tou ingoa moku, e Ihowa, e te Atua o nga mano.

Pea naʻe ʻiloa hoʻo ngaahi lea, pea ko ʻeku meʻakai ia; pea ko hoʻo folofola ko e fiemālie pea mo e fakafiefia ki hoku loto: he kuo ui au ʻi ho huafa, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau.

17 Kihai ahau i noho i roto i te whakaminenga o te hunga whakahi, kihai i whakamanamana atu; i noho mokemoke ahau, he whakaaro ki tou ringa: kua whakakiia nei hoki ahau e koe ki te riri.

Naʻe ʻikai te u nofo ʻi he fakataha ʻae kau manuki, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fiefia ka naʻaku nofo tokotaha pe koeʻuhi ko ho nima: he kuo ke fakapito ʻaki au ʻae tuputāmaki.”

18 He aha toku mamae i mau tonu ai, toku patunga te mahu ai, te pai ai ki te rongoa? ka rite rawa ranei koe ki ahau me te awa paremoremo, me nga wai e kore e mau?

“Ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai pe ʻeku mamahi, mo hoku lavea taʻefaʻafakamoʻui, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai fie moʻui? Te ke ʻiate au ʻo hangē ko e meʻa loi, pea ʻo hangē ko e vai kuo fakaʻaʻau ke maha?

19 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ki te hoki koe na ka whakahokia koe e ahau, kia tu ai koe ki toku aroaro; a ki te tangohia atu e koe te mea utu nui i te mea kino, ka rite koe ki toku mangai: ko ratou e hoki ki a koe, kaua ia koe e hoki ki a r atou.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, kapau te ke tafoki, te u toe ʻomi koe, pea te ke tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao: pea kapau te ke vaheʻi ʻae lelei mei he kovi, te ke hoko ʻo hangē ko hoku fofonga; tuku ke tafoki ʻakinautolu kiate koe kaeʻoua naʻa ke tafoki koe kiate kinautolu.

20 Ka meinga hoki koe e ahau ki tenei iwi hei taiepa parahi; a ka whawhai ratou ki a koe, otiia e kore ratou e kaha ki a koe; no te mea kei a koe ahau hei whakaora i a koe, e mawhiti ai koe, e ai ta Ihowa.

Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, te u ngaohi koe ki he kakai ni ke ke hangē ko e ʻa palasa: pea te nau tauʻi koe, ka ʻe ʻikai te nau lavaʻi koe: he ʻoku ou ʻiate koe ke fakamoʻui koe, pea ke fakahaofi koe.

21 Ka meinga ano koe e ahau kia mawhiti i roto i te ringa o te hunga kino, ka hokona ano koe e ahau i roto i te ringa o te hunga nanakia.

Pea te u fakahaofi koe mei he nima ʻoe angahala, pea te u huhuʻi koe mei he nima ʻoe mālohi.”
