ʻAisea
14 He ʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻa e meesi kia Sēkope,+ pea te ne toe fili ʻa ʻIsileli.+ Te ne fakanofonofo kinautolu* ʻi honau fonuá,+ pea ʻe kau mo kinautolu ʻa e kau mulí pea te nau pipiki ki he fale ʻo Sēkopé.+ 2 Pea ʻe ʻave kinautolu ʻe he ngaahi kakaí ʻo ʻomi ki honau feituʻú, pea ʻe maʻu kinautolu ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsilelí ko ʻenau kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga+ ʻi he fonua ʻo Sihová; pea te nau hoko ko e kau fakapōpula ʻo e faʻahinga naʻa nau puke pōpula kinautolú, pea te nau pule ki he faʻahinga naʻa nau fakamālohiʻi kinautolu ke ngāué.*
3 ʻI he ʻaho ʻe foaki atu ai kiate koe ʻe Sihova ʻa e mālōlō mei hoʻo mamahí pea mei hoʻo hohaʻatuʻú pea mei he ngāue mamafa naʻe hilifaki kiate koé,+ 4 te ke leaʻaki ai ʻa e palōveepi* ko ení ki he tuʻi ʻo Pāpiloné:
“He hokosia moʻoni ē ʻe he tokotaha* naʻá ne fakamālohiʻi ʻa e niʻihi kehé ke nau ngāué ʻa hono ngataʻangá!
He ngata moʻoni ē ko e fakafeʻātungiá!+
5 Kuo fesiʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e vaʻakau ʻa e kau fulikivanú,
ʻA e tokotoko ʻo e kau pulé,+
6 ʻA e tokotaha ʻokú ne taaʻi ʻi he tōlili ʻa e ngaahi kakaí ʻaki ha ngaahi tā hokohoko,+
ʻA e tokotaha ʻokú ne fakavaivaiʻi ʻi he ʻita ʻa e ngaahi puleʻangá ʻaki ʻa e fakatanga taʻetuku.+
7 Ko eni ʻoku mālōlō ʻa e māmaní kotoa, ʻo ʻatā mei he fakahohaʻá.
ʻOku kalanga ʻa e kakaí ʻi he fiefia.+
8 Naʻa mo e ʻulu siunipá ʻoku nau fiefia koeʻuhí ko koe,
Fakataha mo e ʻulu sita ʻo Lepanoní.
ʻOku nau pehē, ‘Talu mei hoʻo toó,
Mo e ʻikai ke haʻu ha tokotaha tā ʻakau ke tā kimautolu.’
9 Naʻa mo e ʻi he Faʻitoká* ʻi lalo ʻoku ngaue ia
Ke fakafetaulaki kiate koe ʻi hoʻo ʻalu hifó.
Koeʻuhí ko koe, ʻokú ne fafangu ʻa kinautolu kuo mole honau mālohí ʻi he maté,
ʻA e kau taki* fakafeʻātungia kotoa ʻo e māmaní.
ʻOkú ne ʻai ʻa e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá ke nau tuʻu hake mei honau ngaahi taloní.
10 Ko kinautolu kotoa te nau lea ʻo pehē atu kiate koe,
‘Kuó ke hoko koā mo koe ʻo vaivai hangē ko kimautolú?
Kuó ke hoko koā mo koe ʻo hangē ko kimautolú?
ʻOku fola ʻi lalo ʻiate koe ʻa e ʻuangá ko hao mohenga,
Pea ko ho kafú ʻa e fanga kelemutú.’
12 He tō moʻoni ē ko koe mei he langí,
ʻA koe foʻi fetuʻu ʻoku uló, ʻa e foha ʻo e mafoa ʻa e atá!
He tuʻusi hifo ē ko koe ki he māmaní,
ʻA koe naʻá ke ikunaʻi ʻa e ngaahi puleʻangá!+
13 Naʻá ke pehē ʻi ho lotó, ‘Te u ʻalu hake ki he langí.+
Te u hiki hake hoku taloní ke māʻolunga ange ia ʻi he ngaahi foʻi fetuʻu ʻa e ʻOtuá,+
Pea te u nofo ʻi he moʻunga faiʻanga fakatahá,
ʻI he ngaahi feituʻu mamaʻo taha ʻo e tokelaú.+
14 Te u ʻalu hake ke māʻolunga ʻi he funga ʻaó;
Te u ʻai au ke u tatau mo e Fungani Māʻolungá.’
15 ʻI hono kehé, ʻe ʻohifo koe ki he Faʻitoká,*
Ki he feituʻu loloto taha ʻo e luó.
16 Ko e faʻahinga ʻoku nau vakai atú te nau sio fakamamaʻu atu kiate koe;
Te nau mātuʻaki vakavakaiʻi koe, ʻo nau pehē,
‘Ko e tangata koā eni naʻá ne luluʻi ʻa e māmaní,
ʻA ia naʻá ne ʻai ke tete ʻa e ngaahi puleʻangá,+
17 ʻA ia naʻá ne ʻai ʻa e māmani ʻoku nofoʻí ke hangē ko e toafá
Pea liua ʻa hono ngaahi koló,+
ʻA ia naʻá ne fakafisi ke tuku ange ke foki ki ʻapi ʻa ʻene kau pōpulá?’+
18 Ko e ngaahi tuʻi kehe kotoa ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá,
ʻIo, ʻa kinautolu kotoa, ʻoku nau tākoto ʻi he lāngilangi,
ʻA e tokotaha taki taha ʻi hono fonualoto* ʻoʻona.
19 Ka ʻoku liʻaki koe ʻo ʻikai hao faʻitoka,
Hangē ha huli* kuo fehiʻanekinaʻí,
Kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻe he kau mate naʻe hokaʻi ʻaki ʻa e heletaá,
ʻA ia ʻoku nau ʻalu hifo ki he faʻitoka makamaká,
Hangē ha ʻangaʻanga kuo tāmalakí.
20 ʻE ʻikai ke tanu fakataha koe mo kinautolu ʻi ha faʻitoka,
He naʻá ke fakaʻauha ho fonuá,
Naʻá ke tāmateʻi ho kakaí tonu.
Ko e hako ʻo e kau faikoví ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito toe fai ha lave ki honau hingoá.
21 Teuteu ha feituʻu ke tāmateʻi ai hono ngaahi fohá
Koeʻuhi ko e halaia ʻa ʻenau fanga kuí,
Koeʻuhí ke ʻoua naʻa nau tuʻu hake ʻo puleʻi ʻa e māmaní
Pea fakafonu ʻa e fonuá ʻaki honau ngaahi koló.”
22 “Te u tuʻu hake kiate kinautolu,”+ ko e fanongonongo ia ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú.
“Pea te u tafiʻi mei Pāpilone ʻa e hingoa mo e toenga mo e hako mo ha toʻutangata ʻi he kahaʻú,”+ ko e fanongonongo ia ʻa Sihová.
23 “Pea te u ʻai ke ne hoko ko e koloa ʻa e fanga pōkiupainé pea ko ha feituʻu ano, pea te u tafiʻi ia ʻaki ʻa e taufale ʻo e fakaʻauhá,”+ ko e fanongonongo ia ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú.
24 Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú:
“Hangē pē ko ia kuó u taumuʻa ki aí, ʻe pehē ʻene hokó,
Pea hangē pē ko ia kuó u fakapapauʻí, ko e meʻa ia ʻe hokó.
25 Te u laiki ʻa e ʻAsīliá ʻi hoku fonuá,
Pea te u tāmalaki ia ʻi hoku ngaahi moʻungá.+
ʻE toʻo ʻa ʻene ʻioké meiate kinautolu,
Pea ko ʻene kavengá ʻe toʻo ia mei honau umá.”+
26 Ko e meʻa eni kuo fakapapauʻi* ki he māmaní kotoa,
Pea ko e nima eni ʻa ia kuo mafao atu ki he* ngaahi puleʻangá kotoa.
27 He kuo fakapapauʻi ia ʻe Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau,
Pea ko hai ʻe lava ke ne fakafehālaakiʻi iá?+
Kuo mafao atu hono nimá,
Pea ko hai ʻe lava ke ne fakafoki iá?+
28 ʻI he taʻu ko ia naʻe mate ai ʻa Tuʻi ʻĀhasí,+ naʻe fai ai ʻa e fanongonongo ko ení:
29 “ʻE Filisitia, ʻoua naʻá ke fiefia, ha taha pē ʻiate koe,
Koeʻuhí pē ko e mofesi ʻa e tokotoko ʻo e tokotaha ʻokú ne taaʻi koé.
He ʻe haʻu mei he aka ʻo e ngatá+ ha ngata huhu kona,+
Pea ʻe hoko hono hakó ko ha ngata huhu vela ʻoku puna.*
30 Lolotonga ʻoku fafanga ʻa e ʻuluaki foha ʻo e māʻulaló
Pea ʻoku tokoto ʻi he malu ʻa e masivá,
Te u tuku atu ho aká ke mate ʻi ha honge,
Pea ko e toenga meiate koé ʻe tāmateʻi.+
31 Fākafoa, ʻa koe matapā! Kalanga, ʻa koe kolo!
Ko kimoutolu kotoa ʻe vaivai homou lotó, ʻa koe Filisitia!
He ʻoku haʻu ha kohu mei he tokelaú,
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha faʻahinga ʻe ʻalu kehe mei heʻene kau taú.”
32 ʻE fēfē haʻanau tali ki he kau talafekau ʻo e puleʻangá?
Kuo fakatoka ʻe Sihova ʻa e fakavaʻe ʻo Saioné,+
Pea ko e faʻahinga māʻulalo ʻi hono kakaí te nau hūfanga ai.
