13 ʻI he ʻaho ko iá naʻe lau ai ʻa e tohi ʻa Mōsesé ʻo fanongo ki ai ʻa e kakaí,+ pea naʻe ʻilo naʻe tohi ai ʻo pehē ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ke hū ha tokotaha ʻĀmoni pe Mōape+ ki he fakatahaʻanga ʻa e ʻOtua moʻoní,+ 2 he naʻe ʻikai te nau fakafetaulaki ki he kau ʻIsilelí mo ha mā pea mo ha vai, ka naʻa nau totongiʻi ʻa Pēlami ke ne talatukiʻi kinautolu.+ Kae kehe, naʻe liliu ʻe homau ʻOtuá ʻa e talatukí ki ha tāpuaki.+ 3 ʻI heʻenau fanongo pē ki he Laó, naʻe kamata ke nau fakamavaheʻi mei ʻIsileli ʻa e faʻahinga kotoa naʻe tupuʻi mulí.+
4 Pea ki muʻa ʻi he meʻá ni, ko e taulaʻeiki naʻá ne tokangaʻi ʻa e ngaahi loki tukuʻanga koloa* ʻo e fale* ʻo homau ʻOtuá+ ko ʻEliasipi,+ ko ha kāinga ʻo Tōpaia.+ 5 Naʻá ne ʻai ke maʻu ʻe Tōpaia ha fuʻu loki tukuʻanga koloa,* ʻa ia naʻa nau faʻa tuku ai ki muʻa ʻa e feilaulau meʻakaí, ko e ʻinisēnisi hinehiná, mo e ngaahi naunaú pea mo e vahe hongofulu ʻo e uite, ko e uaine foʻou, pea mo e lolo,+ ʻa ia naʻe totonu ke maʻu ʻe he kau Līvaí,+ mo e kau hivá, pea mo e kau leʻo matapaá, fakataha mo e meʻaʻofa ki he kau taulaʻeikí.+
6 Pea ʻi he lolotonga ʻa e taimi ko ení naʻe ʻikai te u ʻi Selusalema ai, he naʻá ku ʻalu ki he tuʻí ʻi he taʻu hono 32+ ʻo e pule ʻa Tuʻi ʻAtasease+ ʻo Pāpiloné; pea ʻi ha taimi ki mui ai naʻá ku kole ai ki he tuʻí ha taimi ke u ʻatā ai mei he ngāué. 7 Pea naʻá ku haʻu ki Selusalema ʻo fakatokangaʻi ai ʻa e meʻa fakalilifu ko ia naʻe fai ʻe ʻEliasipi+ maʻa Tōpaiá,+ ʻi hono ʻai ke ne maʻu ha loki tukuʻanga koloa ʻi he lotoʻā ʻo e fale ʻo e ʻOtua moʻoní. 8 Naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito haʻaku leleiʻia ʻi he meʻá ni, ko ia naʻá ku laku ki tuʻa ʻa e naunau fale kotoa ʻa Tōpaiá mei he loki tukuʻanga koloá.* 9 ʻI he hili iá, naʻá ku ʻoange ha tuʻutuʻuni, pea naʻa nau fakamaʻa ʻa e ngaahi loki tukuʻanga koloá;* pea naʻá ku fakafoki ki ai ʻa e ngaahi naunau ʻo e fale ʻo e ʻOtua moʻoní,+ fakataha mo e feilaulau meʻakaí pea mo e ʻinisēnisi hinehiná.+
10 Naʻá ku toe ʻilo ai naʻe ʻikai ke ʻoange ʻa e ngaahi ʻinasi ʻo e kau Līvaí+ kiate kinautolu,+ ko ia naʻe mavahe ai ʻa e kau Līvaí mo e kau hivá, ʻo taki taha ʻalu ki heʻene ngoue.+ 11 Ko ia naʻá ku valokiʻi ʻa e kau tokoni pulé+ ʻo pehē: “Ko e hā kuo liʻaki ai ʻa e fale ʻo e ʻOtua moʻoní?”+ Naʻá ku fakatahatahaʻi mai leva kinautolu ʻo fokotuʻu ʻi honau ngaahi tuʻungá. 12 Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Siuta kotoa ʻa e vahe hongofulu+ ʻo e uité, ko e uaine foʻoú, pea mo e loló ki he ngaahi loki tukuʻanga koloá.+ 13 Pea naʻá ku ʻai ʻa Selemia ko e taulaʻeikí, Sātoki ko e tokotaha hiki-tataú,* mo Petaia mei he kau Līvaí ke nau tokangaʻi ʻa e ngaahi loki tukuʻanga koloá, pea ko Hānani ko e foha ʻo Sakulí ko e foha ʻo Matanaiá ʻa honau tokoní, he ko e kau tangatá ni naʻe fai ʻa e vakai kiate kinautolu naʻa nau alafalalaʻanga. Ko honau fatongiá ia ke fai ʻa e tufa ki honau fanga tokouá.
14 Ke ke manatuʻi au,+ ʻe hoku ʻOtua, ʻi he fekauʻaki mo e meʻá ni, pea ʻoua naʻá ke toʻo mei hoʻo manatú ʻa ʻeku ngaahi ngāue ʻofa mateaki kuó u fai ki he fale ʻo hoku ʻOtuá mo hono ngaahi ngāué.*+
15 ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko iá naʻá ku sio ai ki he kakai ʻi Siutá ʻoku nau malaki ʻa e ngaahi tataʻoʻanga uainé ʻi he Sāpaté,+ pea ʻomi ki ai ʻa e ngaahi fokotuʻunga uite ʻo fakaheka ia ʻi he fanga ʻasi, pea ʻomi ʻa e uaine, kālepi, fiki, mo e uta kehekehe ki Selusalema ʻi he ʻaho Sāpaté.+ Ko ia naʻá ku fakatokanga kiate kinautolu fekauʻaki mo hono fakatau atu ʻo e meʻakaí ʻi he ʻaho ko iá.* 16 Pea ko e kau Tāia naʻa nau nofo ʻi he koló naʻa nau ʻomi ʻa e ika mo e koloa kehekehe, ʻo fakatau atu ia ki he kakai ʻo Siutá pea ʻi Selusalema ʻi he Sāpaté.+ 17 Ko ia naʻá ku valokiʻi ai ʻa e houʻeiki ʻo Siutá pea pehē kiate kinautolu: “Ko e hā ʻa e meʻa kovi ko eni ʻoku mou faí, naʻa mo e ʻaho Sāpaté ē ʻoku ʻikai te mou fakatoputapuʻi? 18 ʻIkai ko e meʻa eni naʻe fai ʻe hoʻomou fanga kuí, ʻo ʻomi ai ʻe hotau ʻOtuá ʻa e fakatamaki kotoa ko ení kiate kitautolu pea pehē ki he koló ni? Ko eni ʻoku mou toe fakalahi atu ki he houhau kakaha ki ʻIsilelí ʻi hono taʻefakatoputapuʻi ʻa e Sāpaté.”+
19 Ko ia ʻi he kamata mamalu ʻa e poʻulí ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻo Selusalemá ki muʻa ʻi he Sāpaté, naʻá ku tuʻutuʻuni ai ke tāpuni ʻa e ngaahi matapaá. Naʻá ku toe pehē ke ʻoua te nau fakaava ia kae ʻoua kuo mahili atu ʻa e Sāpaté, pea naʻá ku fokotuʻu ʻa e niʻihi ʻo ʻeku kau tamaioʻeikí ʻi he ngaahi matapaá koeʻuhí ke ʻoua naʻa ʻomi ki loto ha ngaahi uta ʻi he ʻaho Sāpaté. 20 Ko ia naʻe mohe tuʻo taha pe tuʻo ua ʻi tuʻa Selusalema ʻa e kau fefakatauʻakí mo e faʻahinga naʻa nau fakatau atu ʻa e koloa kehekehé. 21 Naʻá ku fakatokanga leva ai kiate kinautolu ʻo pehē: “Ko e hā ʻoku mou mohe ai ʻi muʻa ʻi he ʻaá? Kapau te mou toe fai ia, te u fai ha meʻa kiate kimoutolu.” ʻI he taimi ko iá ʻo faai atu ai naʻe ʻikai te nau toe haʻu ʻi he Sāpaté.
22 Pea naʻá ku tala ki he kau Līvaí ke nau fakamaʻa tuʻumaʻu kinautolu pea omi ʻo leʻohi ʻa e ngaahi matapaá ke tauhi ʻa e ʻaho Sāpaté ke tapu.+ Ko e meʻá ni foki, ke ke manatuʻi ia ki haʻaku lelei, ʻe hoku ʻOtua, pea fakahaaʻi ʻa e ʻofa kiate au ʻo fakatatau ki he lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻofa mateakí.+
23 ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko iá naʻá ku sio foki ai ki he kau Siu naʻa nau mali mo e* kakai fefine+ ʻAsitoti,+ ʻĀmoni, mo e Mōape.+ 24 Ko e vaeua ʻo honau ngaahi fohá naʻa nau lea faka-ʻAsitoti pea ko e vaeua naʻa nau lea ʻi he lea ʻa e ngaahi kakai kehekehé, ka naʻe halaʻatā ha taha ʻo kinautolu naʻe poto ʻi he lea ʻa e kau Siú. 25 Ko ia naʻá ku valokiʻi ai kinautolu pea talatukiʻi kinautolu pea taaʻi ʻa e niʻihi ʻo e kau tangatá+ ʻo fusi honau ʻulú pea ʻai ke nau fai ha fuakava ʻi he ʻOtuá: “ʻE ʻikai te mou ʻoatu homou ngaahi ʻofefiné ki honau ngaahi fohá, pea ʻe ʻikai te mou tali ha taha pē ʻo honau ngaahi ʻofefiné ki homou ngaahi fohá pe ko kimoutolu.+ 26 ʻIkai naʻe faiangahala ʻa Tuʻi Solomone ʻo ʻIsilelí koeʻuhí ko e ngaahi meʻá ni? ʻI he lotolotonga ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá naʻe ʻikai ha tuʻi ʻe hangē ko iá;+ pea naʻe ʻofaʻi ia ʻe hono ʻOtuá,+ ko ia naʻe fakanofo ia ʻe he ʻOtuá ke ne hoko ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsileli kotoa. Ka naʻe fakatupunga naʻa mo ia ʻe hono ngaahi uaifi mulí ke ne faiangahala.+ 27 ʻIkai ko ha meʻa faingataʻa ia ke fai ha tui ki ai te mou taʻefaitōnunga ki hotau ʻOtuá ʻo fai ʻa e fuʻu koví ni ʻi he mali mo e kau fefine mulí?”+
28 Ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi foha ʻo Sioiata+ ko e foha ʻo ʻEliasipi+ ko e taulaʻeiki lahí naʻá ne hoko ko ha foha-ʻi-he-fono ʻo Sanipalate+ ko e tangata Hōloní. Ko ia naʻá ku kapusi ia meiate au.
29 Ke ke manatuʻi kinautolu, ʻe hoku ʻOtua, koeʻuhí kuo nau ʻuliʻi ʻa e tuʻunga taulaʻeikí mo e fuakava ʻo e tuʻunga taulaʻeikí+ pea mo e kau Līvaí.+
30 Pea naʻá ku fakamaʻa kinautolu mei he tākiekina muli kotoa pē, pea naʻá ku vaheʻi ʻa e ngaahi fatongia ki he kau taulaʻeikí pea mo e kau Līvaí, ʻa e tokotaha taki taha ki heʻene ngāue,+ 31 pea fai ha fokotuʻutuʻu ki hono ʻomi ʻa e fefie+ ʻi he ngaahi taimi kuo vaheʻi ki aí pea ki he ʻuluaki ngaahi fua kuo motuʻá.
