Siope 23

Tongan Bible, Revised West Version

Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)

1Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Siope, ʻo ne pehē,

1A LAILA olelo mai la o loba, i mai la,

2“ʻOku kona ʻaupito ʻa ʻeku mamahi, ʻio, ʻi he ʻaho ni: pea mamafa lahi hoku tā ʻi heʻeku faʻa toʻe.

2I keia la hoi ua awaawa kuu ulono ana; Ua oi ke kaumaha o ka lima maluna o'u mamua o kuu kanikau ana.

3Taumaiā ke u ʻilo ʻae potu te u maʻu ai ia! Ke u aʻu atu ki hono nofoʻanga!

3Ina paha e ike au i kahi e loaa'i ia'u ia, E hele aku auanei au a kona wahi!

4Te u fakamatala ʻeku meʻa ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo fakafonu hoku ngutu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea fakamamafa.

4E hooponopono aku au imua ona i ko'u, A e hoopiha i ko'u waha i ka olelo hoakaka,

5Te u ʻilo ai ʻae ngaahi lea te ne tali ʻaki au, pea u faʻa ʻilo ʻaia te ne lea ʻaki mai kiate au.

5E ike au i na olelo ana e pane mai ai ia'u, A e manao i ka mea ana e olelo mai ai ia'u.

6He te ne fai mo au ʻaki hono mālohi lahi? ʻIkai: ka te ne ʻai ʻae mālohi kiate au.

6E paio anei ia me au me kona mana nui? Aole, aka, e manao mai no ia ia'u.

7‌ʻE faʻa alea ai mo ia ʻae māʻoniʻoni; pea ʻe fakamoʻui taʻengata ai au mei hoku fakamaau.

7Malaila e paio ka mea pono me ia; A e hoopakele loa ia au mai kuu lunakanawai aku,

8“Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻalu atu, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ia; pea ʻoku ou foki mai, kae ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi ia:

8Aia hoi, hele aku au ma ka hikina, aole ia malaila; A ma ke komohana, aole au e ike ia ia:

9Ki he toʻohema, ʻoku ne ngāue ai, kae ʻikai te u sio ki ai: pea ʻoku ne fufū ia ʻi he toʻomataʻu, ke ʻoua naʻaku ʻilo ia:

9Ma ke kukuluakau, kahi ana i hana ai, aole au e nana ia ia; Ua hunaia oia ma ke kukuluhema, aka, aole au e ike ia ia:

10Ka ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻae hala ʻoku ou ʻalu ai: pea ka ʻosi ʻene ʻahiʻahiʻi au, te u hao mai ʻo hangē ko e koula.

10No ka mea, ua ike no ia i ka aoao iloko o'u; Ke hoao nei ia ia'u, a e puka aku auanei au, me he gula la.

11Kuo puke maʻu ʻe hoku vaʻe ki hono lakaʻanga, pea kuo u ʻalu ʻi hono hala, ʻo ʻikai afe.

11Ua hoopaa ko'u wawae i kona hele ana, Ua malama au i kona aoao, aole au i haalele.

12Pea naʻe ʻikai te u foki mai mei he fekau ʻa hono fofonga: kuo u fufū ʻi hoku loto ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa hono fofonga.

12Mai ke kauoha o kona mau lehelehe aku, aole au i hele; Ua malama au i na olelo a kona waha mamua o kuu haawina ai.

13Ka ʻoku pehē ai pe ia pea ko hai te ne liliu ia? Pea ko ia ʻoku tokanga ki ai hono finangalo, ʻe fai pē ʻe ia.

13Aka, oia ka mea hookahi, a owai ke hoohuli ia ia? A o ka mea a kona naau e makemake ai, oia kana e hana'i

14He te ne fakakakato hoku ʻinasi kuo tuʻutuʻuni: pea ʻoku lahi ʻae meʻa pehē ʻiate ia.

14No ka mea, ua hana mai ia i ka mea i hoopaaia no'u: A nui na mea ia ia e like me ia.

15Ko ia ʻoku ou manavahē ai ʻi hono ʻao: pea kau ka fakakaukau, ʻoku ou ilifia kiate ia.

15Nolaila, ua haalulu au imua o kona alo; Noonoo iho la au, a makau ia ia.

16He ʻoku fakamolū hoku loto ʻe he ʻOtua, pea ʻoku fakamamahiʻi au ʻe he Māfimafi:

16Ke hoomakau mai nei ke Akua i kuu naau, A ke hooweliweli mai nei ka Mea mana ia'u;

17Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai tuʻusi au ʻi he teʻeki hoko ʻae fakapoʻuli, ʻo ʻikai ʻufiʻufi ʻe ia ʻae poʻuli mei hoku mata.

17No ka mea, aole i okiia aku au imua o ka pouli, Aole hoi i huna mai ia i ka pouli mai kuu maka aku.
