Heremaia 6
1 Putere atu, e nga tama a Pineamine, i roto i Hiruharama, whakatangihia te tetere ki Tekoa, kokiritia ake he ahi tohu ki Petehakereme: he kino hoki te titiro mai nei i te raki, he whakangaromanga nui.
“ʻAe fānau ʻa Penisimani mou fakataha ʻakimoutolu pea hola atu mei Selūsalema, pea ifi ʻae meʻalea ʻi Tikoa, pea fokotuʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga afi ʻi Pete-Hakilime; he ʻoku hā mai ʻae kovi mei he tokelau, pea mo e fakaʻauha lahi.
2 Ka tapahia atu e ahau te wahine ataahua, te wahine whakatarapi, te tamahine a Hiona.
Kuo u fakatatau ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Saione ki he fefine hoihoifua mo angalelei.
3 Ka haere mai nga hepara, me a ratou kahui ki a ia; ka whakaturia o ratou teneti ki tetahi taha ona, ki tetahi taha; ka kai ratou ki tona wahi, ki tona wahi.
ʻE haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau tauhi mo ʻenau fanga sipi; pea te nau fokotuʻu honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo takatakai kiate ia; pea te nau taki taha kai ʻi hono potu ʻoʻona.
4 Kia rite nga mea mo te whawhai ki a ia; whakatika, kia whakaekea i te poutumarotanga. Aue, te mate mo tatou! kua tawharara hoki te ra, kua whakawairua kau ano nga atarangi o te ahiahi.
“Mou teuteu kiate ia; tuʻu hake pea ke tau ʻalu hake ʻi he hoʻatāmālie. ʻOiauē ʻakitautolu! He kuo ʻalu ʻae ʻaho, pea kuo mafola atu ʻae malumalu ʻoe efiafi.
5 Maranga, kia whakaekea e tatou i te po, kia wawahia ano ona whare kingi.
Tuʻu hake, pea tau ʻalu atu ʻi he poʻuli, pea fakaʻauha hono ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki.”
6 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Tuaina he rakau, haupuria ake he pukepuke hei whawhai ki Hiruharama; ko te pa tenei e whiua; he tukino kau tana i roto i a ia.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Tā hifo hono ngaahi ʻakau, pea fai ha tanu puke ki Selūsalema; ko e kolo eni ke kapa; kuo pito ia ʻi loto ʻi he fakamālohi.
7 Rite tonu ki te pukenga ake o te wai o te puna te pukenga ake o tona kino: he tukino, he pahua te rangona ana i roto i a ia; kei toku aroaro tonu te mamae me te patunga.
ʻO hangē ʻoku puna ʻae vai mei he matavai, ʻoku pehē ʻae hā mai ʻae angahala meiate ia; ʻoku ongoʻi ʻiate ia ʻae fakamālohi pea mo e maumauʻi; ʻoku ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē ʻae mamahi mo e ngaahi lavea.
8 E ako, e Hiruharama, kei puta ke toku ngakau ki a koe, kei meinga koe e ahau kia ururuatia, he whenua kahore e nohoia.
ʻE Selūsalema, ke akonekina koe, telia naʻa ʻalu ʻiate koe ʻa hoku laumālie; telia naʻa ngaohi koe ke tala, ko e fonua taʻehanokakai.”
9 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Ka ata, hamua marietia nga toenga o Iharaira, ano he waina; kia rite tau ki ta te kaikohi karepe, whakahokia iho tou ringa ki roto ki nga kete.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Te nau tānaki hono toe ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko e vaine: pea ʻe toe ai ho nima ki he ngaahi vaʻa ʻo hangē ko e tangata ʻoku toli ʻae fua ʻoe vaine.”
10 Ki a wai ra taku korero, taku whakaatu tikanga, e rongo ai ratou? nana, he mea kokotikore to ratou taringa, te whakarongo ai ratou: nana, hei tawainga ma ratou te kupu a Ihowa, kahore e arongia e ratou.
Te u lea mo valoki kia hai, koeʻuhi ke nau fanongo? Vakai, kuo tāpuni honau telinga, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau faʻa ongoʻi; vakai, ko e meʻa manuki kiate kinautolu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova; ʻoku ʻikai te nau fiefia ki ai.
11 Na, ki tonu ahau i te riri o Ihowa; ruha iho ahau i te koromaki: ringihia ki runga ki te kohungahunga i te ara, ki te whakaminenga ano o nga taitamariki, hui katoa: no te mea ka hopukia te tane raua ko te wahine, te koroheke raua ko te tangata k ua maha ona ra.
Ko ia kuo u fonu ʻi he houhau ʻo Sihova; ʻoku ou fiu ʻi he taʻofi: “Te u lilingi atu ia, ki he fānau ʻoku ʻi he hala; pea ki he fakataha ʻae kau talavou, ʻio, ʻe ʻave ʻae tangata mo hono uaifi, ʻae motuʻa pea mo ia ʻoku lahi hono ngaahi ʻaho.
12 Ka riro ke o ratou whare i etahi atu, nga mara ngatahi ano ko nga wahine: no te mea ka totoro toku ringa ki nga tangata o te whenua, e ai ta Ihowa.
“Pea ʻe maʻu ʻe he kakai kehe honau ngaahi fale, mo e ngaahi ngoue, fakataha mo honau ngaahi uaifi: he te u mafao atu hoku nima ki he kakai ʻoe fonua, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.’
13 Ko te mea iti o ratou, ko te mea nui hoki kei runga i te apo; ko te poropiti, ko te tohunga, ratou katoa kei te mahi teka:
“He ʻoku nau taki taha manumanu mei he iiki ʻo aʻu ki he lalahi; pea taki taha fai kākā mei he palōfita, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taulaʻeiki.
14 Ko ta ratou rongoatanga hoki i te mamae o taku iwi he hanga noa iho; e ki ana, Ka mau te rongo, ka mau te rongo; i te mea kahore nei he maunga rongo.
Kuo nau fakamoʻui kākā foki ʻae lavea ʻoe ʻofefine ʻo hoku kakai, ʻonau pehē, ‘Fiemālie, fiemālie;’ ka ʻoku ʻikai ha fiemālie.
15 I whakama ranei ratou i a ratou e mahi ana i nga mea whakarihariha? hore rawa o ratou whakama, kahore hoki i mohio ki te numinumi: mo reira ka hinga ratou i roto i te hunga e hinga ana: i te wa e whiu ai ahau i a ratou, ka whakataka ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
He naʻa nau mā ʻi heʻenau fai meʻa fakalielia? Naʻe ʻikai, naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te nau mā, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau fekulaʻi ʻi he mā; ko ia te nau hinga mo kinautolu ʻoku hinga: ʻo kau ka ʻaʻahi kiate kinautolu ʻe lī ki lalo ʻakinautolu, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
16 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E tu ki nga ara, tirohia atu, uia nga ara tawhito kei hea te ara pai, ka haere i reira, a ka kite koutou i te tanga reira, a ka kite koutou i te tanga manawa mo o koutou wairua. Heoi e ki mai ana ratou, E kore matou e h aere i reira.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Mou tuʻu ʻi he ngaahi hala, ʻo mamata, pea fehuʻi ki he ngaahi motuʻa hala, ‘Ko e fē ʻae hala lelei?’ Pea mou ʻaʻeva ʻi ai, pea te mou ʻilo ʻae fiemālie ki homou laumālie. Ka naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mau ʻeveʻeva ai.’
17 I whakaturia ano e ahau etahi kaitutei mo koutou, i mea ahau, Whakarongo ki te tangi o te tetere. Heoi e ki ana ratou, E kore matou e whakarongo.
Pea naʻaku fakanofo kiate kimoutolu foki ʻae kau tangata leʻo, ʻo pehē, ‘Fanongo ki he leʻo ʻoe meʻalea.’ Ka naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mau fanongo.’
18 Mo reira, whakarongo, e nga iwi, kia mohio ano koe, e te huihui, ki nga mea kei roto i a ratou.
“Ko ia mou fanongo, ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga, pea ʻilo ʻe he fakataha ʻoe kakai, ʻae meʻa ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu.
19 Whakarongo, e te whenua; tenei ahau te kawe mai nei i te kino mo tenei iwi, i nga hua o o ratou whakaaro; mo ratou kihai i whakarongo ki aku korero; ko taku ture, paopaongia ake e ratou.
Fanongo, ʻe māmani: vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae kovi ki he kakai ni, ko e fua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi mahalo, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea, pe ki heʻeku fono, ka kuo nau liʻaki ia.
20 Hei aha te whakakakara i tae mai ai ki ahau i Hepa, te kakaho kakara i te whenua tawhiti? e kore a koutou tahunga tinana e arongia, e kore ano a koutou patunga tapu e reka ki ahau.
He ko e hā hono ʻaonga ke ʻomi ʻae meʻa namu kakala kiate au mei Sipa, pea mo e tō huʻamelie mei he potu mamaʻo? ʻoku ʻikai lelei kiate au homou ngaahi feilaulau tutu, pea ʻoku ʻikai huʻamelie kiate au homou ngaahi feilaulau.”
21 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tenei ahau te whakatakoto nei i nga tutukitanga waewae e ki mua i tenei iwi, e tutuki ngatahi ai nga matua, nga tamariki; ka ngaro te tangata noho tata raua ko tona hoa.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, te u ʻai ʻae ngaahi tūkiaʻanga ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ni, pea ʻe tūkia fakataha ai ʻae ngaahi tamai pea mo e ngaahi foha; pea ʻe malaʻia ʻae kaungāʻapi mo honau kāinga.”
22 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tenei te haere mai nei he iwi i te whenua ki te raki, ka whakaarahia mai ano he iwi nui i nga pito o te whenua.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ha kakai mei he fonua ʻi he tokelau, pea ʻe fakatupu ʻae kakai lahi mei he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani.
23 Ka mau ratou ki te kopere, ki te tao; he nanakia ratou, e kore hoki e tohu tangata; ko to ratou reo, ano kei te moana e haruru ana, a eke ai ratou i runga i te hoiho; rarangi rawa ratou, me te mea he tangata e mea ana ki te whawhai ki a koe, e t e tamahine a Hiona.
Pea te nau ala ki he kaufana mo e hōfangahau; ʻoku nau loto fefeka, pea taʻeʻaloʻofa; ʻoku ʻuʻulu honau leʻo ʻo hangē ko e tahi; pea ʻoku nau heka ki he fanga hoosi, ʻo fakaʻotu ʻo hangē ko e kau tangata te u tau kiate koe, ʻE ʻofefine ʻo Saione.”
24 Kua rongo matou ki tona rongo; ngoikore iho o matou ringa; mau pu matou i te pawera, i te mamae, me te mea he wahine e whanau ana.
Kuo tau fanongo ki hono ongoongo: ʻoku vaivai hotau nima; kuo maʻu ʻakitautolu ʻe he mamahi, ʻo hangē ko e langā ha fefine ke fāʻele.
25 Kei puta atu ki te mara, kaua hoki e haere i te ara; kei reira hoki te hoari a te hoariri, a kei nga taha katoa te wehi.
ʻOua naʻa ʻalu ki he ngoue, pe ʻeveʻeva ʻi he hala; he ʻoku ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻae heletā ʻoe fili mo e fakailifia.
26 E te tamahine a taku iwi, whitikiria te kakahu taratara, ka takaoriori ki te pungarehu, hei te tangi ki te huatahi tau tangi ki a koe, kia tiwerawera te tangi: no te mea kihai i aha kua tae mai te kaipahua ki a tatou.
ʻE ʻofefine ʻo hoku kakai ke ke nonoʻo ʻaki koe ʻae tauangaʻa, pea fetafokifokiaki koe ʻi he efuefu; ke ke mamahi, ʻo hangē ko e fai ki he foha pe taha, ko e tangilāulau mamahi: koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu fakafokifā pe kiate koe ʻae fakaʻauha.
27 Kua oti koe te mea e ahau hei pourewa, hei pa kaha, i roto i toku iwi; kia mohio ai koe, kia whakamatau ai i to ratou ara.
“Kuo u fakanofo koe ko e ʻahiʻahi, mo e fakamaʻa ki hoku kakai, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻiloʻi mo ʻahiʻahi ki heʻenau anga.
28 He tino nui to ratou tutu, a ko ta ratou i a ratou e haereere ana he ngau tuara: he parahi ratou, he rino; he hunga whakangau ke ratou katoa.
Ko e kau angatuʻu fakamamahi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ko e kau lauʻi kovi: ko e palasa mo e ukamea ʻakinautolu: ko e kau fakakovi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
29 Kei te kaka te hau o te pupuhi ahi; kua pau te mata i te ahi, maumau whakarewa noa te kaitahi para: kahore nei hoki te hunga kino kia unuhia atu.
Kuo vela ʻae tapili, kuo vela ʻo vai ʻae pulu ʻi he afi; ʻoku fai ʻae haka taʻeʻaonga ʻe he fakamaʻa: he ʻoku ʻikai mavahevahe ʻae kovi.
30 E huaina ratou e te tangata he hiriwa i paopaongia, no te mea kua paopao nei a Ihowa ki a ratou.
ʻE ui ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ko e siliva kākā, koeʻuhi kuo liʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova.”
