20 Hili ʼaia, neʼe olo te kau Moape,+ mo te kau Amone+ pea mo ʼihi Amonime* ʼo tauʼi ia Sosafate. 2 Pea neʼe fakaha te logo ʼaeni kia Sosafate: “ ʼE ʼomai he toe hahaʼi kaugamalie mai te potu fenua ʼo te tai,* mai Etome+ ʼo tauʼi koe, pea ʼe natou nonofo nei ʼi Asasoni-tamale, ʼae ko Ene-keti.”+ 3 Neʼe mataku leva ia Sosafate, pea neʼe ina fakatotonu ʼi tona loto* ke ina kumi ia Sehova.+ Koia, neʼe ina tala ai ke fai he sesunio ʼi Suta katoa. 4 Neʼe fakatahitahi leva te hahaʼi ʼo Suta ke natou kole te tokoni ʼa Sehova.+ Neʼe natou ʼomai mai te ʼu kolo fuli ʼo Suta ke natou kole te takitaki ʼa Sehova.

5 Neʼe tuʼu ake leva ia Sosafate ia muʼa ʼo te hahaʼi ʼo Suta pea mo Selusalemi, ʼi te fale ʼo Sehova ʼi te muʼa malaʼe foʼou, 6 ʼo ina ui:

“Sehova e, te ʼAtua ʼo ʼamatou kui, ʼe mole ke ʼAtua koa la ʼi te lagi?+ ʼE mole ke pule koa la ki te ʼu puleʼaga fuli?+ ʼE maʼu ʼi tou nima te malohi mo te mafimafi, pea ʼe mole he tahi ʼe feala ke fakafeagai kia te koe.+ 7 Siʼomatou ʼAtua, neʼe mole ke kapu koa la te hahaʼi ʼo te fenua ʼaeni ia muʼa ʼo Iselaele, tau hahaʼi? Pea neʼe mole ke foaki age koa la ki te hakoga ʼo tou kaumeʼa ko Apalahamo+ ʼo talu ai? 8 Neʼe natou nonofo ai, pea mo laga ʼi ai he sagatualio maʼa koe ke fakamaʼuhigaʼi ai tou huafa,+ ʼo natou ui: 9 ‘Kapau ʼe hoko mai he malaʼia kia matou, peʼe ʼaki te heleta, peʼe ko he fakamau, peʼe ko he taʼi mahaki, peʼe ko he hoge, ʼe matou tutuʼu anai ʼi ʼou muʼa pea ia muʼa ʼo te fale ʼaeni (he ʼe tuʼu tou huafa ʼi te fale ʼaeni)+ pea mo kole tokoni atu ʼi tomatou mamahi. Pea ʼofa pe ke ke logo mai pea mo ke haofaki matou.’+ 10 Pea ʼi te temi nei, koʼeni te ʼu tagata ʼo Amone, mo Moape pea mo te potu moʼugaʼia ʼo Seili+ ʼe ʼomai. Ko natou ʼaia neʼe mole ke fakagafua ki Iselaele ke natou maʼu ʼonatou fenua, ʼi tanatou mavae mai te fenua ʼo Esipito. Neʼe natou maliu kehe mai ia natou pea neʼe mole natou pulihi katoa ia natou.+ 11 Kae koʼeni ʼe natou liufaki mai te kovi ʼi tanatou ʼomai ʼo kapu matou mai tou fenua ʼae neʼe ke foaki mai ko homatou tofiʼa.+ 12 Siʼomatou ʼAtua, ʼe mole ke tauteaʼi anai koa ia natou?+ Koteʼuhi ʼe mole kei ʼi ai homatou malohi ia muʼa ʼo te toe hahaʼi kaugamalie ʼaeni ʼe ʼomai ʼo tauʼi matou. Pea ʼe mole matou iloʼi te meʼa ʼae ʼe tonu ke matou fai,+ kae ʼe haga atu ʼomatou mata kia te koe.”+

13 ʼI te temi ʼaia, neʼe tutuʼu ia muʼa ʼo Sehova ia te hahaʼi fuli ʼo Suta, mo ʼonatou ʼohoana, pea mo ʼanatou fanau,* ʼo kau ai mo ʼanatou fanau liliki.

14 Pea ʼi te lotolotoiga ʼo te hahaʼi, neʼe hifo te laumalie ʼo Sehova kia Sakasiele, te foha ʼo Sakalia, te foha ʼo Penaia, te foha ʼo Seiele, te foha ʼo Matania, ia te tagata Levite mai te ʼu foha ʼo Asafe. 15 Pea neʼe ina ui: “Kotou fagono mai, ia koutou fuli ʼo Suta, mo hahaʼi ʼo Selusalemi pea mo koe, Hau ko Sosafate! ʼE ui atu e Sehova kia koutou: ‘ ʼAua naʼa kotou matataku ʼi te toe hahaʼi kaugamalie ʼaia, koteʼuhi ʼe mole ko koutou anai ʼae ka tau kae ʼe ko te ʼAtua.+ 16 Apogipogi, kotou olo kia natou. ʼE natou ʼomai anai ʼi te ala ʼo Tesipe, pea ʼe kotou maʼu anai natou ʼi te gataʼaga ʼo te vai tafe,* ʼae ʼe ovi ki te toafa ʼo Seluele. 17 ʼE mole kotou tau anai. Kotou olo, mo tutuʼu maʼu+ pea kotou sisio ki tokotou haofaki e Sehova.+ Hahaʼi ʼo Suta mo Selusalemi, ʼaua naʼa kotou matataku.+ Apogipogi, kotou olo kia natou, pea ʼe nofo anai ia Sehova mo koutou.’ ”+

18 ʼI te temi pe ʼaia, neʼe tulolo ia Sosafate ki te kele, pea neʼe punonou ia Suta katoa pea mo te hahaʼi ʼo Selusalemi ia muʼa ʼo Sehova, ʼo atolasio kia Sehova. 19 Pea neʼe tutuʼu ake te kau Levite, ʼae neʼe hifo mai te kau Keate,+ pea mo te kau Kole ʼo fakavikiviki ʼaki he leʼo lahi kia Sehova, te ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele.+

20 ʼI te ʼaho ake, neʼe natou ʼala uhuuhu, ʼo natou olo ki te toafa ʼo Tekoa.+ ʼI tanatou olo ʼaia, neʼe tuʼu leva ia Sosafate pea neʼe ina ui: “Kotou fagono mai, Suta pea mo koutou, hahaʼi ʼo Selusalemi! Kotou tui kia Sehova tokotou ʼAtua, pea ʼe kotou tutuʼu malohi* anai. Kotou tui ki ʼana polofeta,+ pea ʼe fua lelei anai kia koutou ia meʼa fuli.”

21 ʼI tana ʼosi felogoi mo te hahaʼi, neʼe ina fakanofo leva he ʼu tagata ke natou hiva+ he ʼu fakavikiviki kia Sehova. Neʼe tonu ke natou tui he ʼu teu taputapu pea mo haʼele ʼi muʼa ʼo te kau solia, ʼo ui: “Kotou fakafetaʼi kia Sehova he ʼe ina fakaha tona ʼofa agatonu ʼo talu ai.”+

22 ʼI te temi ʼae neʼe natou kamata hiva fakafiafia ai he ʼu fakavikiviki, neʼe fakatuʼutuʼu e Sehova ke ʼohofi fakapunamaʼuli te ʼu tagata ʼo Amone, mo Moape pea mo te potu moʼugaʼia ʼo Seili, ʼae neʼe ʼomai ʼo ʼohofi ia Suta, pea neʼe natou fematematehiʼaki pe ia natou.+ 23 Pea neʼe tauʼi e te kau Amone mo te kau Moape ia te hahaʼi ʼo te potu moʼugaʼia ʼo Seili,+ ʼo natou maumauʼi pea mo matematehi ia natou fuli. ʼI tanatou ʼosi tamateʼi te hahaʼi ʼo Seili, neʼe natou fematematehiʼaki pe ia natou.+

24 Kae ʼi te temi ʼae neʼe tau atu ai ia te hahaʼi ʼo Suta ki te tule leʼo ʼae ʼi te toafa,+ pea mo sisio ki te faʼahi ʼae neʼe nonofo ai te hahaʼi kaugamalie, neʼe natou sisio ai ki te leta mai ʼi te kele te ʼu sino mate.+ Neʼe mole he tahi neʼe hao. 25 Pea neʼe alu ia Sosafate mo tana hahaʼi ʼo toʼo ʼonatou koloa, pea neʼe lahi ʼaupito te ʼu koloa, mo te ʼu mutuʼi meʼa pea mo te ʼu meʼa maʼuhiga ʼae neʼe natou maʼu. Neʼe ʼaho tolu tanatou tae te ʼu koloa, koteʼuhi neʼe lahi ʼaupito. Kae neʼe mole feala ke natou toʼo te ʼu koloa fuli.+ 26 ʼI te fa ʼaho, neʼe natou fakatahitahi ʼi te Potu Fenua Laulelei ʼo Pelaka, ke natou fakavikiviki ai kia Sehova. Ko te tupuʼaga la ʼaia ʼo tanatou fakahigoaʼi te koga meʼa ʼaia ko te Potu Fenua Laulelei ʼo Pelaka,*+ pea ʼe ko tona higoa ʼaia ʼo kaku mai ki te ʼaho nei.

27 Neʼe toe liliu leva ki Selusalemi ia te ʼu tagata fuli ʼo Suta mo Selusalemi, pea neʼe takitaki natou e Sosafate. Neʼe natou fakafiafia he neʼe foaki e Sehova kia natou te malo ʼi ʼonatou fili.+ 28 Neʼe natou hu ai ki Selusalemi ʼo natou ta he ʼu alepa,+ mo he tahi age ʼu meʼa faimaholo pea mo natou pupuhi he ʼu fakatagi pupuhi,+ pea neʼe natou olo ki te fale ʼo Sehova.+ 29 Pea neʼe matataku leva te ʼu puleʼaga fuli ki te ʼAtua, ʼi tanatou logo ʼae neʼe tauʼi e Sehova te ʼu fili ʼo Iselaele.+ 30 Neʼe mole hoko ai ni maveuveu ʼi te puleʼaga ʼo Sosafate, pea neʼe haga foaki aipe e tona ʼAtua kia ia te tokalelei ʼi ʼona tafaʼaki fuli.+

31 Pea neʼe hoko atu pe te pule ʼa Sosafate ki Suta. Neʼe hau ʼi tona taʼu 35, pea neʼe pule lolotoga taʼu ʼe 25 ʼi Selusalemi. Neʼe higoa tana faʼe ko Asupea, ko te ʼofafine ʼo Silesi.+ 32 Neʼe faʼifaʼitakiʼi pe e Sosafate te ʼu aga ʼa Asa, tana tamai.+ Neʼe mole maliu kehe mai ai, pea neʼe ina fai te meʼa ʼae ʼe lelei kia mata ʼo Sehova.+ 33 Kae neʼe mole ina pulihi te ʼu faʼahi maʼoluga,+ pea neʼe heʼeki fakatotonu e te hahaʼi ʼi ʼonatou loto ke natou tauhi ki te ʼAtua ʼo ʼanatou kui.+

34 ʼE tuʼu te toe ʼo te hisitolia ʼo Sosafate, mai tona kamata ki tona fakaʼosi, ʼi te ʼu tohi ʼa Seu,+ te foha ʼo Hanani,+ ʼae ʼe kau ki te Tohi ʼo Te ʼu Hau ʼo Iselaele. 35 Hili ʼaia, neʼe fai e Sosafate, te Hau ʼo Suta he fuakava mo Akasia, te Hau ʼo Iselaele, ʼae neʼe agakovi.+ 36 Neʼe fakatahi mo ia ke nā faʼu te ʼu vaka ʼae ka olo ki Talesisi,+ pea neʼe nā faʼu te ʼu vaka ʼaia ʼi Esioni-kepele.+ 37 Kae neʼe faifakakikite ia Eliesele, te foha ʼo Totava mai Malesa ʼo ʼuhiga mo Sosafate, ʼo ina ui: “ ʼE maumauʼi anai e Sehova ʼau gaue he neʼe ke fai he fuakava mo Akasia.”+ Neʼe mou ai te ʼu vaka+ pea neʼe mole feala ke olo ki Talesisi.
