1 Ko e folofola naʻe haʻu kia Selemaia meia Sihova ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe taʻu ʻo Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻaia naʻe ʻi hono hongofulu ma valu taʻu ʻo Nepukanesa. 2 He naʻe kāpui ʻa Selūsalema ʻe he kau tau ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia: pea naʻe tuku ʻa Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he lotoʻā ʻoe fale fakapōpula, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta.
3 He kuo tuku ia ki ai ʻe Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kikite ai, ʻo lea, ‘ʻoku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, Vakai, te u tukuange ʻae kolo ni ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne kapa ia; 4 Pea ʻe ʻikai hao ʻa Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta mei he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, ka ʻe tukuange moʻoni ia ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne alea mo ia, ko e ngutu ki he ngutu, pea ʻe mamata ia ki hono mata. 5 Pea te ne tataki ʻa Setikia ki Papilone, pea te ne nofo ai, ke ʻoua ke u ʻaʻahi kiate ia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova: “pea kapau te mou tau mo e kau Kalitia, ʻe ʻikai te mou monūʻia.” ’ ”
6 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Selemaia, “Naʻe haʻu kiate au, ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, 7 ‘Vakai, ʻe haʻu kiate koe ʻa Hanamili ko e foha ʻo Salumi ko e tokoua ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻo pehē, fakatau moʻou ʻae ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ʻAnatoti: he ʻoku totonu ke ke fakatau ia ʻo hangē ko e fono ʻoe huhuʻi.” ’ ” 8 “Ko ia naʻe haʻu kiate au ki he lotoʻā ʻoe fale fakapōpula ʻa Hanamili ko e foha ʻoe tokoua ʻeku tamai, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, pea ne pehē kiate au, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakatau ʻeku ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ʻAnatoti, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimani: he ʻoku ʻaʻau ia ʻo hangē ko e fono ʻoe hoko, pea ʻoku ʻiate koe hono huhuʻi; ke ke fakatau ia maʻau.’
13 “Pea naʻaku fekau kia Paluki ʻi honau ʻao, ʻo pehē, 14 ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘Toʻo ʻae ngaahi fakamoʻoni ki he fakatau, ʻaia ʻoku fakamaʻu, mo ia ʻoku taʻefakamaʻu fakatouʻosi; pea ʻai ia ki he ipu kelekele, koeʻuhi ke tolonga ia ki he ngaahi ʻaho lahi.’ 15 He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘ʻE toe maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale, mo e ngaahi ngoue, pea mo e ngaahi ngoue vaine ʻi he fonua ni.’
16 Pea hili ʻeku tukuange ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻoe fakatau kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia, naʻaku toki lotu kia Sihova, ʻo pehē,
26 Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē, 27 “Vakai, Ko au ko Sihova, Ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai kotoa pē: ʻoku ai ha meʻa ʻe faingataʻa kiate au? 28 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; Vakai, te u tukuange ʻae kolo ni ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, pea ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne maʻu ia: 29 Pea ʻe haʻu ʻae kau Kalitia, ʻo tauʻi ʻae kolo ni, pea te nau tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻae kolo ni, pea tungia mo e ngaahi fale, ʻaia naʻa nau tutu ai ʻi he tuʻa fale ʻae meʻa namu kakala kia Peali, pea lilingi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau inu ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ke fakahouhauʻi au.
30 “He kuo fai kovi pe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mo e fānau ʻa Siuta talu ʻenau kei siʻi: he kuo fakahouhau ʻaki pe au ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae ngāue ʻa honau nima, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova. 31 He kuo hoko kiate au ʻae kolo ni ko e tupuʻanga ʻo ʻeku tuputāmaki mo hoku houhau talu mei he ʻaho naʻa nau langa ai ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni; koeʻuhi ke u hiki ia mei hoku ʻao, 32 Koeʻuhi ko e kovi kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli pea mo e fānau ʻa Siuta, ʻaia kuo nau fakahouhauʻi au, ko kinautolu, mo honau ngaahi tuʻi, mo honau houʻeiki, mo honau kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo honau kau palōfita, pea mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema. 33 Pea kuo nau fulituʻa kiate au, pea fakahanga atu honau mata: ka naʻaku ako kiate kinautolu, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ke akoʻi ʻakinautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga ke maʻu ʻae akonaki. 34 Ka naʻa nau fokotuʻu ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ʻi he fale, ʻaia ʻoku ui ʻaki ʻa hoku huafa, ke fakaʻuliʻi ia. 35 Pea kuo nau langa ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻo Peali, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe foha ʻo Henomi, ke pule ki honau ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ke ʻalu ʻi he afi kia Moleki; ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate kinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ia, pea naʻe ʻikai siʻi te u loto ki ai, ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ʻae meʻa fakalielia ni, ke fakaangahalaʻi ʻaki ʻa Siuta.”
36 Pea ko eni, ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ki he kolo ni, ʻaia ʻoku mou pehē ki ai, “ʻE tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha:” 37 “Vakai, te u tānaki fakataha ʻakinautolu mei he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻaku kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai ʻi heʻeku tuputāmaki, mo hoku houhau, pea mo hoku houhau lahi; pea te u toe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he potu ni pea te u pule ke nau nofo ʻi he fiemālie: 38 Pea te nau hoko ko hoku kakai, pea te u hoko ko honau ʻOtua: 39 Pea te u foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto pe taha, mo e hala pe taha, koeʻuhi ke nau manavahē kiate au ʻo taʻengata, koeʻuhi ke nau lelei ai, pea lelei mo ʻenau fānau ki mui ʻiate kinautolu: 40 Pea te u fai mo kinautolu ʻae fuakava taʻengata, ʻe ʻikai te u tafoki meiate kinautolu, ʻi he fai lelei kiate kinautolu; ka te u ʻai ki honau loto ʻae manavahē kiate au, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau liʻaki au. 41 ʻIo, te u fiefia ʻiate kinautolu, ke fai lelei kiate kinautolu, pea ko e moʻoni te u tō ʻakinautolu ʻi he fonua ni ʻaki hoku loto kotoa pea mo hoku laumālie kotoa.”
42 “He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ʻO hangē kuo u ʻomi ʻae kovi lahi ni kotoa pē ki he kakai ni, ʻe pehē foki ʻeku ʻomi ʻae lelei kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u talaʻofa ki ai kiate kinautolu. 43 Pea ʻe fakatau ʻae ngaahi ngoue ʻi he fonua ni, ʻaia ʻoku mou pehē ki ai, ʻOku lala ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata pe ha manu ʻi ai; kuo tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia. 44 ʻE fakatau ʻe he kakai ʻae ngaahi ngoue ʻaki ʻae paʻanga, pea ʻe tohi ʻae ngaahi tohi fakamoʻoni, pea fakamaʻu ia, pea ʻe maʻu ʻae kau fakamoʻoni ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimani, pea mo e ngaahi potu ofi ki Selūsalema, pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻi he potu moʻunga, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻi he potu tokalelei, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻoe feituʻu tonga: he te u liliu ʻenau pōpula,” ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova.
