Sēnesi 32:1-32
32 Naʻe ʻalu atu leva ʻa Sēkope, pea naʻe fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻa e kau ʻāngelo ʻa e ʻOtuá.
2 ʻI heʻene vakai atu pē kiate kinautolú, naʻe pehē ʻe Sēkope: “Ko e ʻapitanga eni ʻo e ʻOtuá!” Ko ia naʻá ne ui ai ʻa e feituʻu ko iá ko Mehanemi.*
3 Naʻe fekauʻi atu leva ʻe Sēkope ha kau talafekau ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia kia ʻĪsoa ko hono tokouá ki he fonua ko Seiá,+ ʻa e feituʻu* ʻo ʻĪtomí,+
4 peá ne tuʻutuʻuni kiate kinautolu: “Ko e meʻa eni te mou leaʻaki ki hoku ʻeikí, kia ʻĪsoá, ‘Ko e lea eni ʻa hoʻo sevāniti ko Sēkopé: “Kuó u nofo fuoloa* mo Lēpani ʻo aʻu mai ki he taimí ni.+
5 Pea kuó u maʻu ʻa e fanga pulu, fanga ʻasi, fanga sipi, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga,+ pea ʻoku ou ʻoatu ʻa e fekaú ni ke fakahā ki hoku ʻeikí, koeʻuhi ke ke leleiʻia ai ʻiate au.”’”
6 Faifai atu pē naʻe foki mai ʻa e kau talafekaú kia Sēkope, ʻo nau pehē: “Naʻa mau fetaulaki mo ho tokoua ko ʻĪsoá, pea ko eni ʻokú ne haʻu ke fakafetaulaki mai kiate koe, pea ʻoku ʻiate ia ha kau tangata ʻe toko 400.”+
7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻa Sēkope ʻo ilifia ʻaupito peá ne hohaʻatuʻu.+ Ko ia naʻá ne vahevahe ʻa e kakai naʻe ʻiate iá, pea pehē ki he ngaahi tākangá, ʻa e fanga pulú mo e fanga kāmelí, ki he ʻapitanga ʻe ua.
8 Naʻá ne pehē: “Kapau ʻe ʻohofi ʻe ʻĪsoa ʻa e ʻapitanga ʻe tahá, ʻe lava leva ai ke hola ʻa e ʻapitanga ʻe tahá.”
9 ʻI he hili iá, naʻe pehē ʻe Sēkope: “ʻE ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai ko ʻĒpalahamé mo e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai ko ʻAisaké, ʻE Sihova, ʻa e ʻAfioná ʻokú ke folofola mai kiate au, ‘Foki ki ho fonuá pea ki ho ngaahi kāingá, pea te u failelei kiate koe,’+
10 ʻoku ʻikai te u taau mo e kotoa ʻo e ʻofa mateaki mo e kotoa ʻo e faitōnunga kuó ke fakahaaʻi ki hoʻo sevānití,+ he ko hoku tokotokó pē naʻá ku kolosi mo ia ʻi Sioataní pea ko eni kuó u hoko ko e ʻapitanga ʻe ua.+
11 Fakahaofi au, ko ʻeku lotu ia ki he ʻAfioná,+ mei he nima ʻo hoku tokoua ko ʻĪsoá, he ʻoku ou ilifia ʻiate ia naʻa haʻu ʻo ne ʻohofi au,+ pea pehē ki he ngaahi faʻeé mo ʻenau fānaú.
12 Pea kuó ke folofola mai: ‘Te u failelei moʻoni kiate koe, pea te u ʻai ho hakó ke hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻo e tahí, ʻa ia ʻoku fuʻu lahi fau ke lau.’”+
13 Pea naʻá ne mohe ai. Hili iá, naʻá ne toʻo ʻa e niʻihi ʻo ʻene ngaahi koloá ko ha meʻaʻofa maʻa hono tokoua ko ʻĪsoá:+
14 Ko e fanga kosi fefine ʻe 200, fanga kosi tangata ʻe 20, fanga sipi fefine ʻe 200, fanga sipi tangata ʻe 20,
15 fanga kāmeli ʻe 30 mo honau ʻuhikí, fanga pulu fefine ʻe 40, fanga pulu tangata ʻe 10, fanga ʻasi fefine ʻe 20 mo e fanga ʻasi tangata ʻe 10.+
16 Naʻá ne ʻoange ia ki heʻene kau sevānití, ʻo fakahokohoko ʻa e tākanga ki he tākanga, pea naʻá ne pehē ki heʻene kau sevānití: “Mou kolosi atu ʻo muʻomuʻa ʻiate au, pea ke mou fakavahavaha ʻa e tākanga ʻe tahá mo e tākanga hono hokó.”
17 Naʻá ne tuʻutuʻuni foki ki he tokotaha ʻuluakí: “Ka fakafetaulaki atu kiate koe ʻa ʻĪsoa ko hoku tokouá ʻo ne ʻeke, ‘Ko hai ʻoku ʻaʻana koé, pea ko hoʻo ʻalú ki fē, pea ko hai ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻa e fanga manu ko eni ʻoku muʻomuʻa ʻiate koé?’
18 te ke pehē ange leva, ‘ʻOku ʻa hoʻo sevāniti ko Sēkopé. Ko ha meʻaʻofa ia kuo ʻomai ki hoku ʻeikí, kia ʻĪsoa,+ pea vakai, ko ia ē ʻokú ne muimui mai foki ʻiate kimautolu.’”
19 Pea naʻá ne tuʻutuʻuni foki ki hono uá, pea ki hono tolú, pea mo kinautolu kotoa naʻe muimui atu ʻi he ngaahi tākangá: “ʻE peheni hoʻomou lea kia ʻĪsoá ʻi he taimi te mou fetaulaki ai mo iá.
20 Pea te mou pehē foki, ‘Ko hoʻo sevāniti eni ko Sēkopé ʻoku muimui mai ʻiate kimautolu.’” He naʻá ne pehē hifo pē kiate ia: ‘Kapau te u fakalolou ia ʻaki hono fekauʻi ke fakamuʻomuʻa ha meʻaʻofa ʻiate au,+ ʻi he hili iá ʻi heʻeku sio leva kiate iá, ʻe malava nai ai ke ne talitali lelei au.’
21 Ko ia naʻe kolosi atu ʻa ʻene kau sevānití mo e ngaahi meʻaʻofá ʻo muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia, ka ko ia tonu naʻá ne mohe ʻi he pō ko iá ʻi he ʻapitangá.
22 Ki mui ai ʻi he lolotonga ʻa e pō ko iá, naʻá ne mālanga hake ʻo ne ʻave hono ongo uaifí+ mo ʻene ongo kaunangá+ mo hono ngaahi foha kei iiki ʻe toko 11 ʻo nau kolosi atu ʻi he ʻāhanga ko Siapokí.+
23 Ko ia naʻá ne ʻave kinautolu ki he tafaʻaki ʻe taha ʻo e vaitafé,* pea naʻá ne ʻave mo e meʻa kehe kotoa pē naʻá ne maʻú.
24 Naʻe faifai atu pē ʻo nofo toko taha pē ʻa Sēkope. Pea naʻe kamata ke fangatua mo ia ha tangata ʻo aʻu ki he mafoa ʻa e atá.+
25 ʻI heʻene vakai naʻe ʻikai te ne mālohi ʻia Sēkopé, naʻá ne alasi ʻa hono hokotanga alangá; pea naʻe homo ʻa e hokotanga alanga ʻo Sēkopé ʻi he lolotonga ʻene fangatua mo iá.+
26 ʻI he hili iá, naʻá ne pehē ange: “Tuku ange au ke u ʻalu, he kuo mafoa ʻa e atá.” ʻI he meʻa ko iá, naʻe pehē ange ʻe Sēkope: “ʻE ʻikai te u tuku ange koe ke ke ʻalu kae ʻoua kuó ke tāpuakiʻi au.”+
27 Ko ia naʻá ne pehē ange kiate ia: “Ko hai ho hingoá?” Pea naʻá ne tali ange ki ai: “Ko Sēkope.”
28 Naʻá ne pehē ange leva: “ʻE ʻikai ke kei ui ho hingoá ko Sēkope ka ko ʻIsileli,*+ he kuó ke fefaʻuhi mo e ʻOtuá+ pea mo e tangatá pea kuo faifai pē ʻo ke mālohi.”
29 Naʻe ʻeke ange leva ʻe Sēkope: “Kātaki muʻa ʻo tala mai ho hingoá.” Kae kehe, naʻá ne pehē ange: “Ko e hā ʻokú ke ʻeke ai hoku hingoá?”+ ʻI he meʻa ko iá, naʻá ne tāpuakiʻi ia ʻi ai.
30 Ko ia naʻe ui ʻe Sēkope ʻa e feituʻú ko Penieli,*+ he naʻá ne pehē, “Kuó u mamata ki he ʻOtuá mata ki he mata, neongo ia naʻe fakahaofi ʻeku moʻuí.”+
31 Pea naʻe hopo ʻa e laʻaá ʻi heʻene fakalaka atu pē ko ia ʻi Penuelí,* ka naʻá ne toketu koeʻuhí ko hono alangá.+
32 Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻoku ʻikai tōʻongaʻaki ai ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ʻa hono kai ʻa e uoua ʻo e alangá,* ʻa ia ʻoku ʻi he hokotanga alangá, ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ní, koeʻuhí he naʻá ne alasi ʻa e hokotanga alanga ʻo Sēkopé ʻi he uoua ʻo e alangá.
