Selemaia

32 Naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ʻa e folofola meia Sihova ʻi he taʻu hono 10 ʻo e pule ʻa Tuʻi Setekaia ʻo Siutá, ʻa ia, ko e taʻu ia hono 18 ʻo e pule ʻa Nepukanesá.*+ 2 ʻI he taimi ko iá naʻe ʻākoloʻi ai ʻa Selusalema ʻe he kau tau ʻa e tuʻi ʻo Pāpiloné, pea ko Selemaia ko e palōfitá naʻe tauhi pōpula ʻi he Lotoʻā Kaʻaté+ ʻi he fale* ʻo e tuʻi ʻo Siutá. 3 He kuo tauhi pōpula ia ʻe Tuʻi Setekaia ʻo Siutá,+ ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e hā ʻokú ke kikite peheni aí? ʻOkú ke pehē, ‘Ko e meʻa eni ʻoku folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová: “Te u tuku ʻa e koló ni ki he nima ʻo e tuʻi ʻo Pāpiloné, pea te ne hamu ia,+ 4 pea ʻe ʻikai ke hao ʻa Tuʻi Setekaia ʻo Siutá mei he kau Kalitiá, he kuo pau ke tuku ia ki he nima ʻo e tuʻi ʻo Pāpiloné, pea te ne lea kiate ia mo sio kiate ia mata ki he mata.”’+ 5 ‘Te ne ʻave ʻa Setekaia ki Pāpilone, pea te ne nofo ai pē kae ʻoua kuó u fai ha tokanga kiate ia,’ ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe Sihová. ‘Neongo hoʻomou hanganaki tau mo e kau Kalitiá, heʻikai te mou lavameʻa.’”+

6 Naʻe pehē ʻe Selemaia: “Kuo hoko mai ʻa e folofola ʻa Sihová kiate au, ʻo pehē, 7 ‘Ko eni ʻe haʻu ʻa Henamili ko e foha ʻo Salumi ko e tokoua ʻo hoʻo tamaí kiate koe ʻo ne pehē: “Fakatau maʻau ʻa hoku konga kelekele ʻi ʻAnatotí,+ koeʻuhí ko koe ʻokú ke maʻu ʻa e ʻuluaki totonu ke fakatau iá.”’”+

8 Naʻe haʻu kiate au ʻa Henamili ko e foha ʻo e tokoua ʻo ʻeku tamaí, ʻo hangē tofu pē ko e meʻa naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová, ki he Lotoʻā Kaʻaté, ʻo ne pehē mai kiate au: “Kātaki muʻa ʻo fakatau ʻa hoku konga kelekele ʻi ʻAnatotí, ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimaní, he ko koe ʻokú ke maʻu ʻa e totonu ke maʻu ia pea ke fakatau iá. Fakatau ia maʻau.” ʻI he meʻá ni naʻá ku ʻiloʻi ai ko e folofola ia ʻa Sihova.

9 Ko ia naʻá ku fakatau ʻa e konga kelekele ʻi ʻAnatotí meia Henamili ko e foha ʻo e tokoua ʻo ʻeku tamaí. Naʻá ku fua ʻa e paʻangá+ ʻo ʻoange kiate ia, ko e sikeli* siliva ʻe 17.* 10 Naʻá ku hiki leva ia ʻi ha tohi aleapau,+ pea ʻai ʻa e silá ki ai, mo ui mai ʻa e kau fakamoʻoní,+ pea fua ʻa e paʻangá ʻi he meʻafuá. 11 Naʻá ku toʻo ʻa e tohi aleapau ʻo e fakataú, ʻa e tohi naʻe silaʻí ʻo fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni mo e ngaahi fiemaʻu fakalaó, pea pehē ki he tohi naʻe tuku fakaava peé, 12 pea naʻá ku ʻoange ʻa e tohi aleapau ʻo e fakataú kia Paluki+ ko e foha ʻo Nelaia+ ko e foha ʻo Maʻaseiá ʻi he ʻao ʻo Henamili ko e foha ʻo e tokoua ʻo ʻeku tamaí, mo e kau fakamoʻoni naʻa nau fakamoʻoni ʻi he tohi aleapau ʻo e fakataú, pea mo e kotoa ʻo e kau Siu naʻa nau tangutu ʻi he Lotoʻā Kaʻaté.+

13 Naʻá ku fai leva ha fekau kia Paluki ʻi honau ʻaó, ʻo pehē: 14 “Ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí, ʻo pehē, ‘Toʻo ʻa e ongo tohi aleapau ko ení, ʻa e tohi aleapau ko eni ʻo e fakataú, ʻa e tohi naʻe silaʻí mo e tohi aleapau ʻe taha naʻe tuku fakaavá, pea faʻo ia ki ha ʻaiʻanga meʻa ʻumea, koeʻuhí ke tauhi ia ai ʻi ha taimi fuoloa.’ 15 He ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí, ‘Ko e ngaahi falé mo e ngaahi konga kelekelé mo e ngaahi ngoue kālepí ʻe toe fakatau mai ia ʻi he fonuá ni.’”+

16 Pea naʻá ku lotu kia Sihova ʻi he hili hono ʻoatu ʻa e tohi aleapau ʻo e fakataú kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelaiá, ʻo pehē: 17 “ʻOiauē, ʻe ʻEiki Hau Sihova! Vakai!

26 ʻI he meʻa ko iá naʻe hoko mai ʻa e folofola ʻa Sihová kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē: 27 “Ko eni, ko Sihova au, ko e ʻOtua ʻo e faʻahinga kotoa ʻo e tangatá.* ʻOku ʻi ai ha meʻa ʻe fuʻu faingataʻa kiate au? 28 Ko ia ko e meʻa eni ʻoku folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihová, ‘Ko eni ʻoku ou tuku atu ʻa e koló ni ki he kau Kalitiá pea ki he nima ʻo Tuʻi Nepukanesa* ʻo Pāpiloné, pea te ne hamu ia.+ 29 Pea ko e kau Kalitia ʻoku nau tauʻi ʻa e koló ni te nau hū atu ʻo tutu ʻa e koló ni+ pea tutu ia fakataha mo e ngaahi fale ʻa ia ko honau funga falé ē naʻe faifeilaulau ai ʻa e kakaí kia Pēalí pea lilingi atu ai ʻa e ngaahi feilaulau inu ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehé ke fakaʻitaʻi ai au.’+
