Semisi 4

1 ‌ʻOku mei fē ʻae ngaahi tau mo e fekeʻikeʻi ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu? ʻIkai ʻoku mei hoʻomou ngaahi holi kovi ia ʻaia ʻoku tau ʻi homou ngaahi kupu?

Me ke kawo gaba da rashin jituwa a tsakanin ku? Ba yana tasowa ne daga muguwar sha'awa da ke yaki a cikin ku ba?

2 ‌ʻOku mou holi kae ʻikai maʻu: ʻoku mou tāmateʻi, mo feinga ke maʻu, kae ʻikai faʻa lavaʻi: ʻoku mou fekeʻikeʻi mo tau, kae ʻikai te mou maʻu, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te mou kole.

Kuna sha'awa, kuma ba ku da shi. Kuna kisa da kyashi, kuma ba za ku iya samu ba. Kuna danbe da fada. Har wa yau baku samu ba domin baku tambaya ba.

3 ‌ʻOku mou kole, pea ʻikai maʻu koeʻuhi ʻoku mou kole kovi, koeʻuhi ke mou fakaʻosi ia ki hoʻomou ngaahi holi.

Kun roka kuma ba a baku ba saboda kuna roko ta hanya mara kyau, kuna so ku yi amfani da shi domin miyagun sha'awoyin ku.

4 ‌ʻAe kau tono fefine mo e kau tono tangata, ʻikai te mou ʻilo ko e feʻofoʻofani mo māmani ko e taufehiʻa ia ki he ʻOtua? Pea ko ia ia ʻoku loto ke kāinga mo māmani ko e fili ia ʻoe ʻOtua.

Ku mazinata! Baku sani ba, abokantaka da duniya, tawaye ne ga Allah? Don haka duk wanda ya shiga abokantaka da duniya ya zama magabcin Allah.

5 He ʻoku mou mahalo ʻoku pehē noa pē ʻae lea ʻi he tohi tapu; “ʻOku holi ki he meheka ʻae laumālie ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakitautolu?”

Ko kuna zaton nassi ya fadi haka a banza ne, “Ruhun nan da ke a cikinmu yana da kishi matuka?”

6 Ka ʻoku ne foaki ʻae ʻofa lahi hake. Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku tekeʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae laukau ka ʻoku ne foaki ʻae ʻofa ki he angavaivai.”

Amma Allah ya bayar da karin alheri, shi ya sa nassi ya ce, “Allah yana gaba da mai girman kai, Amma yana ba da alheri ga mai tawaliu.”

7 Ko ia mou fakavaivaiʻi ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻOtua. Tekeʻi ʻae tēvolo, pea ʻe puna atu ia meiate kimoutolu.

Saboda haka ku mika kan ku ga Allah. Ku yi tsayayya da shaidan, zai kuma guje maku.

8 ‌ʻUnuʻunu atu ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ia kiate kimoutolu. Fakamaʻa homou nima, ʻae kau angahala; pea fakamaʻa mo homou loto, ʻae kau lotolotoua.

Ku matso kusa da Allah, shi kuma za ya matsa kusa da ku. Wanke hannayen ku, ku masu zunubi, ku tsabtace zukatan ku, ku masu zuciya biyu.

9 Mou mamahiʻia, pea toʻetoʻe, mo tangi: ke liliu hoʻomou kata ko e toʻetoʻe, pea ko hoʻomou fiefia ko e māfasia.

Ku yi bakin ciki, makoki, da kuka! Ku mayar da dariyar ku ta koma bakin ciki, farin cikinku kuma zuwa ga bakin ciki.

10 Fakavaivaiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki, pea ʻe hakeakiʻi ʻe ia ʻakimoutolu.

Ku kaskantar da kanku a gaban Ubangiji, shi kuma za ya daukaka ku.

11 ‌ʻE kāinga, ʻoua naʻa feleakoviʻaki ʻakimoutolu kiate kimoutolu. Ko ia ʻoku lauʻikovi hono tokoua, pea fakamaauʻi hono tokoua, ʻoku ne lauʻikovi ʻae fono, pea fakamaauʻi ʻae fono: pea kapau ʻoku ke fakamaauʻi ʻae fono, ʻoku ʻikai te ke fai koe ki he fono, ka ko e fakamaau.

Kada ku rika zargin juna, 'yan'uwa. Wanda ya ke zargin dan'uwa ko shari'anta dan'uwansa, yana zargin shari'a kuma yana hukunta shari'a. Idan ka hukunta shari'a, ya nuna ba ka biyayya da shari'ar, amma mai hukunci.

12 ‌ʻOku ai ʻae tokotaha ʻoku ne fokotuʻu ʻae fono, ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe ia ke fakamoʻui pea ke fakaʻauha: ko hai koe ʻoku ke fakamaauʻi ʻae tokotaha?

Mai ba da shari'a da yin hukunci daya ne. Shine mai iya ceto kuma ya hallakar. Kai wanene, da ke hukunta makwafcin ka?

13 Vakai mai, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku pehē, “Ko e ʻaho ni pe ko e ʻapongipongi te tau ʻo ki ha kolo ʻe taha, ʻo nofo ai ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, ʻo fefakatauʻaki, ʻo maʻu ai ʻae koloa:”

Saurara, ku da kuke cewa, “Yau ko gobe za mu tafi wancan birnin mu yi shekara guda a wurin, muna kasuwanci, mu kuma yi riba.”

14 Ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻaia ʻe hoko ʻapongipongi. He ko e hā hoʻomou moʻui? He ko e mao ia, ʻoku hā mai ʻo fuoloa siʻi pe, pea mole atu leva.

Wa ya san abin da zai faru gobe, kuma yaya rayuwan ka zai kasance? Kai kamar hazo ne mai bayyana bayan dan lokaci kadan ya bace.

15 Kae totonu hoʻomou pehē, “Kapau ko e finangalo ʻoe ʻEiki ke moʻui ʻakitautolu, te tau fai eni, pe ko ʻena.”

Maimakon haka, sai ka ce, “Idan Ubangiji ya nufa, za mu rayu kuma mu yi wannan ko wancan.”

16 Ka ko eni, ʻoku mou fiefia ʻi hoʻomou faʻa polepole: ka ʻoku kovi ʻae fiefia pehē kotoa pē.

Amma yanzu kana fahariya da shirye shiryen ka na takama. Irin wannan fahariya, mugunta ce.

17 Ko ia ia ʻoku ne ʻilo ke fai lelei, ka ʻoku ʻikai ke fai, ko e angahala ia kiate ia.

Saboda haka ga wanda ya san abin da ya kamata ya aikata amma bai yi ba, ya zama zunubi a gare shi.
