10 Neʼe alu leva ia Lopoame ki Sekemi,+ he neʼe ʼomai fuli te kau Iselaele ki Sekemi ke fakanofo hau ia ia.+ 2 Pea neʼe logo ia Selopoamo,+ te foha ʼo Nepate ki ai. (ʼI te temi ʼaia, neʼe kei nofo ʼi Esipito he neʼe hola ʼuhi ko te Hau ko Salomone.)+ Neʼe toe liliu mai leva mai Esipito. 3 Neʼe fekauʼi leva ʼihi tagata ke natou olo ʼo ʼaumai ia ia, pea neʼe haʼu ia Selopoamo mo Iselaele katoa kia Lopoame, ʼo natou ui age: 4 “Neʼe fakamamafa e tau tamai tamatou kavega.+ Kae kapau ʼe ke fakamaʼamaʼa te gaue kinakina mo te kavega mamafa* ʼae neʼe fakamaʼua mai e tau tamai kia matou, ʼe matou tauhi anai kia koe.”
5 Neʼe ina ui kia natou: “Kotou toe liliu mai hili ʼaho ʼe tolu.” Pea neʼe olo ai te hahaʼi.+ 6 Neʼe alu leva te Hau ko Lopoame ʼo kumi tokoni ki te kau matuʼa ʼae neʼe gaue maʼa tana tamai ko Salomone ʼi tana kei maʼuli. Neʼe ina fehuʼi age kia natou: “Kotea la he tali ʼe feala ke au fai ki te hahaʼi ʼaia?” 7 Neʼe natou tali age ki ai: “Kapau ʼe ke agalelei mo te hahaʼi ʼaia, mo ke fakafiafiaʼi ʼonatou loto pea mo ke tali lelei kia natou, ʼe natou liliu anai ko hau hahaʼi faifekau ʼo talu ai.”
8 Kae neʼe ina liʼaki te tokoni ʼae neʼe foaki age e te kau matuʼa kia ia, pea neʼe alu ʼo kumi tokoni ki te kau tupulaga ʼae neʼe lalahi ake mo ia pea neʼe liliu ko tana kau gaue.+ 9 Neʼe ina fehuʼi age kia natou: “Kotea la he tali ʼe tonu ke tou fai ki te hahaʼi ʼae neʼe natou ui mai: ‘Ke ke fakamaʼamaʼa te kavega ʼae neʼe fakamaʼua mai e tau tamai kia matou’?” 10 Neʼe ui age e te kau tupulaga ʼae neʼe lalahi ake mo ia: “Neʼe ui atu e te hahaʼi: ‘Neʼe fakamamafa e tau tamai tamatou kavega, kae ʼe tonu ke ke fakamaʼamaʼa.’ Koʼeni leva te meʼa ʼae ʼe tonu ke ke ui kia natou: ‘ ʼE au toe agafefeka age anai au ʼi taku tamai.* 11 Neʼe fakamaʼua atu e taku tamai he kavega mamafa, kae ʼe au toe fakamamafa age anai takotou kavega. Neʼe tauteaʼi koutou e taku tamai ʼaki ni huipi, kae ʼe au tauteaʼi anai koutou ʼaki ni huipi ʼe haʼi ki ai he ʼu meʼa talatala.’ ”
12 Neʼe haʼu leva ia Selopoamo mo te hahaʼi fuli kia Lopoame ʼi te tolu ʼaho, he neʼe ui age e te hau kia natou: “Kotou toe liliu mai hili ʼaho ʼe tolu.”+ 13 Kae neʼe palalau fefeka age ia te hau kia natou. Neʼe liʼaki e te Hau ko Lopoame te tokoni ʼa te kau matuʼa. 14 Neʼe palalau ki te hahaʼi ʼo mulimuli ki te tokoni ʼa te kau tupulaga, ʼo ina ui: “ ʼE au fakamamafa anai takotou kavega, pea ʼe au toe fakamamafa anai ʼo lahi age. Neʼe tauteaʼi koutou e taku tamai ʼaki ni huipi, kae ʼe au tauteaʼi anai koutou ʼaki ni huipi ʼe haʼi ki ai he ʼu meʼa talatala.” 15 Koia, neʼe mole fakalogo ia te hau ki te hahaʼi, koteʼuhi neʼe takitaki e te ʼAtua moʼoni te ʼu aluʼaga ʼaia,+ ke hoko ai te folafola ʼae neʼe fai e Sehova ʼaki ia Akisa,+ te tagata Silo kia Selopoamo, te foha ʼo Nepate.
16 Neʼe mole fakalogo te hau ki te kau Iselaele fuli, koia neʼe tali age e te hahaʼi ki te hau: “ ʼE ʼi ai koa hotatou vahe ia Tavite? Kailoa, ʼe mole ʼi ai hotatou tofiʼa ʼi te foha ʼo Sese. Koia, hahaʼi ʼo Iselaele, kotou tahi liliu ki ʼona ʼatua. Pea Tavite, ke ke tokaga pe ki tou loto fale!”+ Neʼe toe liliu ai te kau Iselaele fuli ki ʼonatou ʼapi.*+
17 Kae neʼe hoko atu pe e Lopoame tana pule ki te kau Iselaele ʼae neʼe nonofo ʼi te ʼu kolo ʼo Suta.+
18 Neʼe fekauʼi leva e te Hau ko Lopoame ia Hatolame ke alu ki te kau Iselaele. Ko Hatolame+ ʼae neʼe pule ki te hahaʼi ʼae neʼe fakamaʼua e te hau ke natou gaue maʼa ia. Kae neʼe natou tuki makaʼi ia ia, ʼo mate ai. Neʼe lava heka te Hau ko Lopoame ki tana saliote ʼo hola ki Selusalemi.+ 19 Pea neʼe fakafeagai te kau Iselaele ki te fale ʼo Tavite ʼo kaku mai ki te ʼaho nei.
