Esekiele 20:1-49
20 ʼI te fitu taʼu, ʼi te ʼaho hogofulu ʼo te nima mahina, neʼe ʼomai te ʼu takitaki ʼo Iselaele ʼo nonofo ʼi ʼoku muʼa, ʼo fakafehuʼi ia Sehova.
2 Neʼe palalau mai leva ia Sehova, ʼo ina ui:
3 “Foha ʼo te tagata, palalau ki te ʼu takitaki ʼo Iselaele, ʼo ke ui: ‘Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: “Neʼe kotou ʼomai koa ʼo fakafehuʼi au? ‘ ʼE au tala moʼoni atu, ʼe mole au tali atu anai,’+ ko te ui ʼaia ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova.” ’
4 “Kua ke tokalelei koa ke ke fakamauʼi ia natou? Foha ʼo te tagata, kua ke tokalelei koa ke ke fakamauʼi ia natou? Fakaha kia natou te ʼu meʼa fakalialia ʼae neʼe fai e ʼanatou kui.+
5 Ui age kia natou: ‘Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: “ ʼI te ʼaho ʼae neʼe au filifili ai ia Iselaele,+ neʼe au fai he fakapapau ki te ʼu hakoga ʼo Sakopo, pea neʼe natou iloʼi ai au ʼi Esipito.+ ʼEi, neʼe au fai he fakapapau mo ui age kia natou: ‘Ko au ia Sehova tokotou ʼAtua.’
6 ʼI te ʼaho ʼaia, neʼe au fakapapau ʼe au fakamavae anai natou mai Esipito ʼo ʼave ki he fenua neʼe au kumi maʼa natou, he fenua ʼe tafe ai te huʼa pipi mo te meli.+ Neʼe matalelei age ʼi te ʼu fenua fuli.
7 Pea neʼe au ui age kia natou: ‘Kotou tahi liʼaki te ʼu meʼa fakalialia ʼae ʼe kotou sisio ki ai. ʼAua naʼa kotou heʼe maʼa ʼaki te ʼu fakatata fakalialia* ʼo Esipito.+ Ko au ia Sehova tokotou ʼAtua.’+
8 “ ‘ “Kae neʼe natou agatuʼu kia te au, neʼe mole natou fia fakalogo mai. Neʼe mole natou liʼaki te ʼu meʼa fakalialia ʼae neʼe natou sisio ki ai, pea neʼe mole natou fia lituʼa ki te ʼu fakatata fakalialia ʼo Esipito.+ Koia neʼe au fakapapau ke au fakato toku hauhau katoa kia natou ʼi Esipito.
9 Kae neʼe au manatuʼi toku huafa ke mole ʼulihi ia muʼa ʼo te ʼu puleʼaga ʼae neʼe natou maʼuʼuli ai.+ Neʼe natou iloʼi ai au ʼi te temi ʼae neʼe au fakamavae ai natou mai Esipito, kae sioʼi e te ʼu puleʼaga ʼaia.+
10 Koia neʼe au fakamavae ai natou ʼi Esipito ʼo taki ki te toafa.+
11 “ ‘ “Pea neʼe au foaki kia natou ʼaku fakatotonu mo fakaha ʼaku lao+ ke fakalogo ki ai te tagata pea ke maʼuli.+
12 Neʼe au toe foaki ʼaku sapato,+ ko he fakailoga ia au pea mo natou,+ ke natou iloʼi ai ko au ia Sehova ʼae ʼe au fakamaʼoniʼoniʼi ia natou.
13 “ ‘ “Kae neʼe agatuʼu kia te au te hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele ʼi te toafa.+ Neʼe mole natou fakaʼapaʼapa ki ʼaku fakatotonu, neʼe natou liʼaki ʼaku lao, kae kapau ʼe fakalogo ki ai te tagata, ʼe maʼuli anai ia. Neʼe natou maumauʼi ʼaku sapato. Koia neʼe au fakapapau ai, ʼe au fakato anai toku hauhau ʼi te toafa ke natou mamate ai.+
14 Neʼe au manatuʼi toku huafa ke mole ʼulihi ia muʼa ʼo te ʼu puleʼaga, ʼae neʼe sisio ki taku fakamavae natou mai Esipito.+
15 Neʼe au toe fakapapau ʼi te toafa, ʼe mole natou hu anai ki te fenua ʼae neʼe au foaki age,+ te fenua ʼae ʼe tafe ai te huʼa pipi mo te meli,+ ʼae ʼe matalelei age ʼi te ʼu fenua fuli.
16 ʼEi, neʼe natou liʼaki ʼaku lao, neʼe mole natou fakaʼapaʼapa ki ʼaku fakatotonu pea neʼe natou maumauʼi ʼaku sapato, koteʼuhi neʼe pipiki ʼonatou loto ki ʼanatou fakatata fakalialia.+
17 “ ‘ “Kae neʼe au ʼofa ia natou, ʼo mole au pulihi, kailoa, neʼe mole au pulihi natou ʼi te toafa.
18 Neʼe au ui age ki ʼonatou foha ʼi te toafa:+ ‘ ʼAua naʼa kotou fakalogo ki te ʼu lao ʼo ʼakotou kui,+ ʼaua naʼa kotou mulimuli ki ʼanatou lao pea ʼaua naʼa kotou heʼe maʼa ʼi ʼanatou fakatata fakalialia.
19 Ko au ia Sehova tokotou ʼAtua. Kotou fakalogo ki ʼaku fakatotonu, kotou mulimuli ki ʼaku lao mo maʼuliʼi.+
20 Ke taputapu ʼaku sapato kia koutou,+ ko he fakailoga anai ia au pea mo koutou ke kotou iloʼi ai ko au ia Sehova tokotou ʼAtua.’+
21 “ ‘ “Kae neʼe agatuʼu kia te au ʼonatou foha.+ Neʼe mole natou fakaʼapaʼapa ki ʼaku fakatotonu, neʼe mole natou mulimuli mo maʼuliʼi ʼaku lao, kae kapau ʼe fakalogo ki ai te tagata, ʼe maʼuli anai ia. Neʼe natou maumauʼi ʼaku sapato, koia neʼe au fakapapau ai ke au fakato toku hauhau katoa kia natou ʼi te toafa.+
22 Kae neʼe mole au fakahoko,+ he neʼe au manatuʼi toku huafa+ ke mole ʼulihi ia muʼa ʼo te ʼu puleʼaga ʼae neʼe sisio ki taku fakamavae natou mai Esipito.
23 Kae neʼe au fakapapau ʼi te toafa, ʼe au fakamavetevete anai natou ʼi te ʼu puleʼaga mo te ʼu fenua.+
24 ʼEi, neʼe mole natou maʼuliʼi ʼaku lao, neʼe natou liʼaki ʼaku fakatotonu,+ neʼe natou maumauʼi ʼaku sapato pea neʼe natou pipiki ki te ʼu fakatata fakalialia ʼo ʼanatou kui.+
25 Neʼe au tuku ke natou fakalogo ki ni lao neʼe mole lelei, pea neʼe mole feala ai ke natou maʼuʼuli.+
26 Pea neʼe au toe tuku ke natou heʼe maʼa ʼi ʼanatou sakilifisio ʼi tanatou tutu ʼonatou ʼuluaki tupu fuli,+ ke natou lotovaivai, ke natou iloʼi ai ko au ia Sehova.” ’
27 “Koia foha ʼo te tagata, palalau ki te hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele ʼo ui: ‘Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: “Neʼe toe laukoviʼi au e ʼakotou kui ʼi tanatou heʼe agatonu kia te au.
28 Neʼe au fakahu natou ki te fenua ʼae neʼe au fakapapau ke au foaki age.+ ʼI tanatou sisio ki te ʼu kiʼi moʼuga pea mo te ʼu fuʼu ʼakau failau fuli,+ neʼe natou momoli ai ʼanatou sakilifisio mo ʼanatou molaga fakalialia. ʼEi, neʼe natou momoli ʼanatou sakilifisio ko he ʼaele lelei ʼi te potu ʼaia, pea neʼe natou liligi ʼanatou molaga meʼa inu.
29 Koia neʼe au fehuʼi ai kia natou: ‘Kotea koa ʼae ʼe kotou olo ʼo fai ʼi te faʼahi maʼoluga ʼaia? (ʼE toe fakahigoaʼi pe ʼi te temi nei ko te Faʼahi Maʼoluga.)’ ” ’+
30 “Koia, tala ki te hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele: ‘Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: “ ʼE kotou heʼe maʼa pe ohage ko ʼakotou kui, he ʼe kotou atolasio ki ʼanatou fakatata fakalialia, ʼo kotou heʼe agatonu ai kia te au.*+
31 Pea ʼe kotou toe heʼe maʼa ʼi te ʼaho nei, ʼi takotou tutu ʼokotou foha ko he ʼu sakilifisio ki ʼakotou fakatata fakalialia fuli.+ Hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele, ʼe kotou toe loto koa ke au tali atu ki ʼakotou kole?” ’+
“ ʼE ui e te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: ‘ ʼE au tala moʼoni atu, ʼe mole au tali atu anai.+
32 ʼE mole hoko anai ʼi he temi takotou manatu ʼae: “Tou liliu ohage ko te ʼu puleʼaga, ohage ko te ʼu famili ʼo te ʼu fenua ʼae ʼe atolasio ki te ʼakau mo te maka.” ’ ”+
33 “ ʼE ui e te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: ‘ ʼE au tala moʼoni atu, ʼe au pule anai kia koutou ʼaki toku nima malohi mo toku mafimafi, pea ʼe au fakato anai kia koutou toku hauhau.+
34 ʼEi, ʼe au fakato anai toku hauhau mo fakamavae koutou mai te ʼu puleʼaga ʼaki toku nima malohi mo toku mafimafi. Pea ʼe au tanaki anai koutou mai te ʼu fenua ʼae neʼe kotou mavetevete ai.+
35 ʼE au ʼaumai anai koutou ki te toafa ʼa te hahaʼi, pea ʼe au fakamauʼi ai koutou ʼi ʼoku muʼa.+
36 “ ʼE ui e te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: ‘ ʼE au fakamauʼi anai koutou ohage pe ko taku fakamauʼi ʼakotou kui ʼi te toafa ʼo Esipito.
37 ʼE au taki anai koutou ke kotou fakalaka ʼi te lalo toko ʼo te tagata tauhi ovi,+ pea ʼe au fakamaʼua anai ke kotou fakaʼapaʼapa ki taku fuakava.
38 Kae ʼe au toʼo anai mai io koutou te kau agatuʼu pea mo natou ʼae ʼe talagataʼa kia te au.+ ʼE au fakamavae anai mai te fenua ʼae ʼe natou nonofo matapule ai, kae ʼe mole natou hu anai ki Iselaele,+ pea ʼe kotou iloʼi moʼoni anai ko au ia Sehova.’
39 “Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova kia koutou hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele: ‘Ke kotou tahi olo ʼo tauhi ki ʼana fakatata fakalialia.+ Kae kapau leva ʼe mole kotou fakalogo mai, ʼe mole toe feala anai ke kotou ʼulihi toku huafa taputapu ʼaki ʼakotou sakilifisio mo ʼakotou fakatata fakalialia.’+
40 “ ʼE ui e te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: ‘ ʼE tauhi mai anai kia te au te hahaʼi katoa ʼo Iselaele ʼi te fenua, ʼei, ia natou fuli ʼi toku moʼuga taputapu, ʼi he moʼuga maʼoluga ʼo Iselaele.+ ʼE natou fakafiafiaʼi anai toku loto ʼi ai, pea ʼe au kole anai ke kotou ʼaumai ʼakotou meʼa taputapu fuli, ʼakotou meʼa ʼofa pea mo ʼakotou molaga lelei tukupau.+
41 ʼE kotou fakafiafiaʼi anai toku loto ʼaki te ʼaele lelei ʼo ʼakotou sakilifisio moka au fakamavae anai koutou mai te ʼu puleʼaga pea mo tanaki koutou mai te ʼu fenua ʼae neʼe kotou mavetevete ai.+ ʼEi, ʼe au fakaha atu anai toku maʼoniʼoni pea ʼe sisio anai ki ai te ʼu puleʼaga.’+
42 “ ‘Pea ʼe kotou iloʼi moʼoni anai ko au ia Sehova,+ moka au toe ʼave koutou ki Iselaele,+ te fenua ʼae neʼe au fakapapau ke au foaki ki ʼakotou kui.
43 ʼE kotou manatuʼi anai takotou aga ʼi te potu ʼaia, pea mo te ʼu gaue fuli ʼae neʼe kotou heʼe maʼa ai.+ Pea ʼe kotou fakalialia pe anai kia koutou ʼuhi ko te ʼu meʼa kovi fuli ʼae neʼe kotou fai.’+
44 ʼE ui e te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: ‘Hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele, ʼe kotou iloʼi moʼoni anai ko au ia Sehova, moka au fai te ʼu faʼahi ʼaia ʼuhi ko toku huafa.+ Pea ʼe mole au tauteaʼi anai koutou ʼo mulimuli ki takotou agakovi mo ʼakotou aga heʼe ʼaoga.’ ”
45 Pea neʼe toe palalau mai ia Sehova, ʼo ina ui:
46 “Foha ʼo te tagata, haga ki te potu saute, fakaha te logo ʼaeni ki te potu saute pea mo faifakakikite ʼo ʼuhiga mo te vao matuʼa ʼo te potu saute.
47 Ui ki te vao matuʼa ʼo te potu saute: ‘Fagono ki te logo ʼa Sehova. Koʼeni te folafola ʼa te Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova: “ ʼE au tafu anai he afi io koe,+ ʼo vela ai ʼau fuʼu ʼakau maʼuli fuli pea mo ʼau fuʼu ʼakau moamoa fuli. ʼE mole mate anai te afi kakaha,+ ʼo tutu ai te ʼu fofoga fuli mai te potu saute ki te potu noleto.
48 Pea ʼe iloʼi anai e te hahaʼi fuli ko au ia Sehova, ʼae neʼe au tafu te afi ʼaia pea ʼe mole mate anai ia.” ’ ”+
49 Koia, neʼe au kalaga ai leva: “Oie, Tuʼi ʼAliki ko Sehova, koʼeni tanatou manatu ʼo ʼuhiga mo au: ‘ ʼE palalau pe ia ʼaki ni matetea!’ ”*
