Here's why:
* "Te ra" means "the sun."
* "Rite tonu" means "exactly like."
* "Atua" means "God."
The sentence as it stands doesn't make logical sense. It could be a fragmented phrase or a misspelling of a longer sentence.
To provide a proper translation, I need more context or a corrected version of the sentence.
Please provide more information if you have it.
