1 ʻOku ui ʻa Sēkope ki hono ngaahi foha ke ne tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu. 3 Ko honau tāpuaki taki taha. 29 ʻOku ne naʻinaʻi kinautolu ki hono putu. 33 ʻOku pekia ia.
1 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sēkope ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻo pehē, “Mou fakataha mai, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻaia ʻe hoko kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻamui.
2 “ʻAe ngaahi foha ʻo Sēkope, mou fakakātoa ʻakinautolu ʻo fanongo:
pea fakafanongo kia ʻIsileli ko hoʻomou tamai.
3 “Ko Lupeni, ko hoku ʻuluaki koe, ko hoku mālohi, mo e kamataʻanga ʻo hoku mālohi,
ko e lelei mo e ngalingali ʻeiki, mo e fungani ʻoe mālohi.
4 ‌ʻOku ke ngaueue koe ʻo hangē ko e vai, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke hoko ʻo lelei;
koeʻuhi naʻa ke ʻalu ki he mohenga ʻo hoʻo tamai;
pea naʻa ke fakaʻuliʻi ia: naʻa ke ʻalu ki hoku tokotoʻanga.
5 “Ko Simione mo Livai ko e ongo tokoua;
ʻoku ʻi heʻena fakakaukau ʻae ngaahi meʻa tautea fakamamahi.
6 Ko hoku laumālie, ʻoua naʻa ke fie kau ki heʻena fakalilolilo;
ko hoku ongoongolelei, ʻoua naʻa ke kau mo hona fakataha,
he naʻa na tāmateʻi ʻae tangata ʻi heʻena ʻita,
pea ʻi hona loto lahi, naʻa na holoki hifo ʻae ʻā maka.
7 Malaʻia ki heʻena ʻita, he naʻe kakaha ia:
mo ʻena lili he naʻe taʻeʻofa ia:
te u tufa ʻakinaua ʻi Sēkope,
mo veteki ʻakinaua ʻi ʻIsileli.
8 “Ko koe Siuta, ʻe fakamālō ki ai ʻa ho ngaahi tokoua;
ʻe ʻi he kia ʻo ho ngaahi fili ʻa ho nima;
ʻe punou kiate koe ʻae ngaahi fānau ʻa hoʻo tamai.
9 Ko e ʻuhiki laione ʻa Siuta:
ko hoku foha kuo ke ʻalu hake mei he tamatea:
naʻa ne tulolo, ʻo tokoto ʻo hangē ko e laione,
pea hangē ko e laione motuʻa;
pea ko hai te ne ueʻi hake ia?
10 E ʻikai mole ʻae tokotoko ʻoe pule ia Siuta,
pe ha taha ke foaki ʻae fono mei hono vaʻe,
kaeʻoua ke hāʻele mai ʻa Sailo;
pea ʻe ʻiate ia ʻae tānaki fakataha ʻoe kakai.
11 Te ne noʻotaki ʻene ʻuhiki ki he vaine,
mo ʻene ʻuhiki ʻasi ki he vaine mātuʻaki lelei;
te ne fō hono ngaahi kofu ʻi he uaine,
mo hono ngaahi kofu ʻi he toto ʻoe kālepi.
12 E kulokula hono mata ʻi he uaine,
pea ʻe hinehina hono nifo ʻi he huʻahuhu.
13 “E nofo ʻa Sepuloni ʻi he taulanga ki tahi;
pea ko e taulanga ia ki he ngaahi vaka:
pea ʻe aʻu atu ʻa hono ngataʻanga ki Saitoni.
14 “Ko e ʻasi mālohi ʻa ʻIsaka,
ʻoku tokoto ia ʻi he tauloto ʻoe kavenga ʻe ua.
15 Pea ʻe pehē ʻe ia ʻoku lelei ʻae fiemālie,
pea ʻoku mata lelei ʻae fonua;
pea ʻe fakapunou hifo hono uma ke haʻamo,
pea ʻe hoko ia ko e tamaioʻeiki ki he tukuhau.
16 “E fakamaau hono kakai ʻe Tani,
ʻo hangē ko e tokotaha ʻae faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli.
17 Ko e ngata fekai ʻa Tani ʻi he veʻehala,
ko e ngata ia ʻi he hala,
ʻoku ne uʻu ʻae mui vaʻe ʻoe hoosi,
ko ia ʻe hinga ki mui ai ʻae tangata heka hoosi.
18 “Kuo u tatali ki hoʻo fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova.
19 “Ko Kata, ʻe lavaʻi ia ʻe ha kongakau,
ka te ne toki ikuna ʻamui.
20 “E tupu ia ʻAseli ʻae mā lelei,
pea ʻe tupu ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻakai fakaʻeiʻeiki.
21 “Ko e hainiti ʻa Nafitali kuo vete ange:
ʻoku ne lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea lelei.
22 “Ko e vaʻa fua lahi ʻa Siosefa,
ʻio, ko e vaʻa fua ia ʻoku ofi ki he vai;
ʻoku kaka hake hono ngaahi vaʻa ʻi he funga ʻā.
23 Kuo fakamamahi lahi ia ʻe he kau tangata fana,
ʻo nau fanaʻi ia, mo fehiʻa kiate ia:
24 Ka naʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻene kaufana ʻi he mālohi,
pea naʻe fakamālohi ʻae kupuʻi nima ʻo hono nima,
ʻe he nima ʻoe Māfimafi ʻo Sēkope.
ʻOku mei ai ʻae Tauhi, ko e Maka ʻo ʻIsileli:
25 ‌ʻIo, mei he ʻOtua ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻaia te ne tokoniʻi koe;
pea ʻi he Māfimafi, ʻaia te ne tāpuaki koe
ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tāpuaki ʻoe langi mei ʻolunga,
mo e ngaahi tāpuaki ʻoe loloto ʻoku ʻi lalo,
mo e tāpuaki ʻoe ngaahi huhu, pea mo e manāva:
26 Ko e ngaahi tāpuaki ʻa hoʻo tamai kuo māhilihili ia ki ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi tāpuaki ʻa hoʻo ngaahi kui,
ʻo aʻu ki he mātuʻaki ngataʻanga mamaʻo ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga taʻengata;
te nau ʻi he ʻulu ʻo Siosefa,
pea ki he tumuʻaki ʻoe ʻulu ʻo ia naʻe vaheʻi mei hono ngaahi tokoua.
27 “E ʻuakai ʻa Penisimani ʻo hangē ko e ulofi:
te ne kai ʻi he pongipongi ʻaia kuo ne maʻu,
pea te ne tufa ʻi he pō ʻae koloa kuo vete.”
28 ¶ Ko e ngaahi faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu ma ua eni ʻo ʻIsileli; pea ko eni ia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe heʻenau tamai kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne tāpuaki ʻaki ʻakinautolu; naʻa ne tāpuaki ʻakinautolu taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki hono tāpuaki ʻoʻona. 29 Pea fonosia ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē: “E tānaki au ki hoku kakai ka mou tanu au mo ʻeku ngaahi tamai ʻi he ʻana ʻoku ʻi he ngoue ʻa ʻEfilone ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Heti. 30 ‌ʻI he ʻana ʻoku ʻi he ngoue ʻi Makipila, ʻaia ʻoku hanga atu ki Mamili, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻaia naʻe fakatau ʻe ʻEpalahame, mo e ngoue ʻa ʻEfilone ʻoe kau Heti, ko e potu maʻana ko e tanuʻanga. 31 Naʻa nau tanu ʻi ai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo hono uaifi ko Sela; pea naʻa nau tanu ʻi ai ʻa ʻAisake mo hono uaifi ko Lepeka pea naʻaku tanu ʻi ai ʻa Lia. 32 Naʻe fakatau ʻae ngoue mo e ʻana ʻoku ʻi ai, mei he fānau ʻa Heti.” 33 Pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe Sēkope ʻene fekau ki hono ngaahi foha, pea naʻa ne hamusi hake hono vaʻe ʻi he mohenga, pea tukuange ʻe ia hono laumālie, pea naʻe tānaki ia ki hono kakai.
