ʻĒmosi
8 Ko e meʻa eni naʻe fakahaaʻi mai ʻe he ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová kiate au ʻi ha vīsoné: Vakai! Naʻe ʻi ai ha kato fuaʻiʻakau ʻo e faʻahitaʻu māfaná. 2 Naʻá ne folofola mai leva, “Ko e hā ʻokú ke sio ki aí, ʻĒmosi?” Naʻá ku tali ange, “Ko ha kato fuaʻiʻakau ʻo e faʻahitaʻu māfaná.” Naʻe folofola mai leva ʻa Sihova kiate au: “Kuo hoko mai ʻa e ngataʻangá ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsilelí. Heʻikai te u kei fakamolemoleʻi kinautolu.+ 3 ‘Ko e ngaahi hiva ʻo e temipalé ʻe hoko ko e tangilāulau ʻi he ʻaho ko iá,’+ ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe he ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová. ‘ʻE lahi ʻa e ngaahi ʻangaʻanga ʻe laku holo ʻi he feituʻu kotoa pē+—ke ʻi ai ha sīlongo!’
4 Fanongo ki he meʻá ni, ʻa kimoutolu ʻoku mou tāmalaki ʻa e masivá
Pea ʻoku mou ʻai ʻa e vaivaí ke ʻikai ke nau toe ʻi ai ʻi he fonuá,+
5 ʻA ia ʻoku mou pehē, ‘Ko ʻafē ʻe ngata ai+ ʻa e kātoanga ʻo e māhina foʻoú, ka tau fakatau atu ʻetau uité,
Koeʻuhi ka tau fakasiʻisiʻi ʻa e fua efá*
Pea fakalahi ʻa e mamafa ʻo e sikelí,*
Ke ʻai ke hala ʻetau ngaahi meʻafua kākaá;+
6 Koeʻuhi ke tau fakatau mai ʻa e tuʻutāmakí ʻaki ʻa e siliva
Mo e masivá ʻaki ha hoaʻi senitolo,+
Pea fakatau atu ʻa e uite taʻeʻaongá.’
7 Ko Sihova, ʻa e lāngilangi ʻo Sēkopé,+ kuó ne fai ha fuakava ʻiate ia pē,
‘ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito haʻaku fakangaloʻi ʻa e kotoa ʻo ʻenau ngaahi ngāué.+
ʻIkai ʻe ʻalu kotoa hake ʻo hangē ko Nailá,
Pea aake mo ʻalu hifo ʻo hangē ko Naila ʻo ʻIsipité?’+
9 ‘ʻI he ʻaho ko iá,’ ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe he ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová,
‘Te u ʻai ke tō hifo ʻa e laʻaá ʻi he hoʻatā mālié,
Pea te u ʻai ke fakapoʻuli ʻa e fonuá ʻi ha ʻaho ʻoku maamaloa.+
10 Te u liliu hoʻomou ngaahi kātoangá ki he tengihia+
Pea mo e kotoa ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi hivá ki he ngaahi taʻanga tangi.*
Te u ʻai ʻa e tauangaʻa ki he kongaloto kotoa pē pea ʻai ke tula ʻa e ʻulu kotoa pē;
Te u ʻai ia ke hangē ko e tengihia ʻo ha foha pē ʻe tahá,
Pea ko e ngataʻanga ʻo e ʻaho ko iá ʻe hangē ha ʻaho fakamamahí.’
11 ‘Vakai! ʻOku hoko mai ʻa e ngaahi ʻaho,’ ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe he ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová,
‘ʻA ia te u tuku atu ai ha honge ki he fonuá,
ʻO ʻikai ko ha honge ʻi he mā pe ko ha fieinua ki ha vai,
Ka ʻi he fanongo ki he ngaahi folofola ʻa Sihová.+
12 Te nau tāsipa mei he tahi ki he tahi
Pea mei he tokelaú ki he hahaké.*
Te nau lele holo ʻo kumi ki he folofola ʻa Sihová, ka heʻikai te nau maʻu ia.
13 ʻI he ʻaho ko iá ʻe pongia ʻa e kau finemui hoihoifua kei nofo anga-maʻá,
Pea pehē ki he kau talavoú, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau fieinuá;
14 Ko kinautolu ko ia ʻoku nau fuakava ʻi he angahala ʻa Samēliá+ mo nau pehē,
“ʻOku mau fuakava ʻi ho ʻotua ʻoku moʻuí, ʻe Tani!”+
Pea, “ʻOku mau fuakava ʻi he hala ki Pea-sipá!”+
Te nau tō, pea heʻikai te nau toe tuʻu hake.’”+
