ʻIsikieli 12
1The word of the LORD came to me:
1NAʻE hoko foki kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
2“Son of man, you dwell in the midst of a rebellious house, who have eyes to see, but see not, who have ears to hear, but hear not, for they are a rebellious house.
2“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoku ke nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fale angatuʻu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mata ke sio ka ʻoku ʻikai mamata; ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae telinga ke fanongo, ka ʻoku ʻikai ongoʻi; he ko e fale angatuʻu ʻakinautolu.
3As for you, son of man, prepare for yourself an exile’s baggage, and go into exile by day in their sight. You shall go like an exile from your place to another place in their sight. Perhaps they will understand, though they are a rebellious house.
3Ko ia, ʻa koe foha ʻoe tangata, teuteu ke fetuku hoʻo ngaahi meʻa, pea fetuku ʻaho pe ʻi honau ʻao; pea te ke fetuku mei hoʻo potu ki ha potu kehe ʻi honau ʻao: heiʻilo te nau fakakaukau, neongo ko e fale angatuʻu ʻakinautolu.
4You shall bring out your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile, and you shall go out yourself at evening in their sight, as those do who must go into exile.
4Te ke toki ʻomi ʻe koe ʻa hoʻo ngaahi meʻa kei ʻaho ʻi honau ʻao, ko e meʻa ke fetuku: pea ka poʻuli te ke ʻalu atu ʻi honau ʻao ʻo hangē koe ʻalu atu ha taha pōpula.
5In their sight dig through the wall, and bring your baggage out through it.
5Keli ʻe koe ke ava ʻae ʻā ʻi honau ʻao, pea ke fetuku atu mei ai.
6In their sight you shall lift the baggage upon your shoulder and carry it out at dusk. You shall cover your face that you may not see the land, for I have made you a sign for the house of Israel.”
6Te ke fua ia ʻi honau ʻao ki ho uma, pea ke fetuku atu ia ʻi he uulikelekele: te ke pūlou ho mata ke ʻoua naʻa ke sio ki he kelekele: he kuo u tuku koe ko e fakaʻilonga ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli.”
7And I did as I was commanded. I brought out my baggage by day, as baggage for exile, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my own hands. I brought out my baggage at dusk, carrying it on my shoulder in their sight.
7Pea naʻaku fai ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau mai: naʻaku ʻomi kituʻa ʻeku meʻa kei ʻaho, ʻo hangē ha meʻa ki he pōpula, pea ʻi he efiafi naʻaku keli ʻae ʻā ʻo fakaava ʻaki ʻa hoku nima; pea naʻaku fetuku kituaʻā ʻi heʻene kei ʻataʻatā, pea naʻaku fua meʻa ʻi hoku uma ʻi honau ʻao.
8In the morning the word of the LORD came to me:
8Pea pongipongi hake naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
9“Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, ‘What are you doing?’
9“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻikai kuo pehē kiate koe ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻae fale angatuʻu, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku ke fai?’
10Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: This oracle concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are in it.’
10Lea koe kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: ʻOku kau ʻae fua kavenga ni ki he tuʻi ʻi Selūsalema mo e fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu.’
11Say, ‘I am a sign for you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They shall go into exile, into captivity.’
11Ke ke pehē, ‘Ko homou fakaʻilonga au: hangē ko ia kuo u fai, ʻe pehē hono fai kiate kinautolu: ʻe fetukutuku mo ʻave ʻakinautolu ki he fakapōpula.
12And the prince who is among them shall lift his baggage upon his shoulder at dusk, and shall go out. They shall dig through the wall to bring him out through it. He shall cover his face, that he may not see the land with his eyes.
12Pea ko ia ʻoku tuʻi ʻiate kinautolu ʻe fua kavenga ia ʻi hono uma ʻi he efiafi poʻuli, pea ʻe ʻalu atu: te nau keli ʻae ʻā ke ava mo fetuku atu ia: ʻe fakapulou ʻe ia hono mata ke ʻoua naʻa sio hono mata ki he kelekele.
13And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare. And I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, yet he shall not see it, and he shall die there.
13Te u ʻaʻau foki ʻeau ʻa hoku kupenga kiate ia, pea ʻe moʻua ia ʻi heʻeku tauhele: pea te u ʻomi ia ki Papilone ki he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia; ka ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki ai, neongo ʻe mate ia ʻi ai.
14And I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him, his helpers and all his troops, and I will unsheathe the sword after them.
14Pea te u vilingia ki he feituʻu matangi kotoa pē ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻiate ia ko hono tokoni, mo ʻene ngaahi kongakau kotoa pē pea te u toʻo ʻae heletā kiate kinautolu.
15And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them among the countries.
15Pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea fakamovete ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua.
16But I will let a few of them escape from the sword, from famine and pestilence, that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they go, and may know that I am the LORD.”
16Ka te u tuku honau kau tangata niʻihi ke hao mei he heletā mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha; koeʻuhi ke nau fakahā ʻenau ngaahi fakalielia ʻi he kau hiteni ʻaia te nau hoko ki ai; pea tenau ʻilo ko Sihova au.
17And the word of the LORD came to me:
17Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
18“Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink water with trembling and with anxiety.
18“Foha ʻoe tangata, kai hoʻo mā ʻi he manavahē, pea inu hoʻo vai ʻi he tetetete pea mo e vakavakai.
19And say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with anxiety, and drink water in dismay. In this way her land will be stripped of all it contains, on account of the violence of all those who dwell in it.
19Pea ke lea ki he kakai ʻoe fonua, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema pea mo e fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; te nau kai fakatuhotuha ʻenau mā, pea inu ilifia pe ʻenau vai, koeʻuhi ko e ʻauha ʻae mahu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ko e meʻa ʻi he fakamālohi ʻanautolu ʻoku nofo ai.
20And the inhabited cities shall be laid waste, and the land shall become a desolation; and you shall know that I am the LORD.”
20Pea ʻe fakalala ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻoku kakai pea ʻe ʻauha ʻae fonua; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
21And the word of the LORD came to me:
21Pea naʻe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
22“Son of man, what is this proverb that you have about the land of Israel, saying, ‘The days grow long, and every vision comes to nothing’?
22“Foha ʻoe tangata, ko e hā ʻae lea fakatātā ko ia ʻoku mou maʻu ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku pehē, ‘ʻOku fakatolonga ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, pea ʻoku ʻikai siʻi ha meʻa hā mai ʻe fakamoʻoni?’
23Tell them therefore, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: I will put an end to this proverb, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel.’But say to them, The days are near, and the fulfillment of every vision.
23Ko ia te ke tala kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: te u fakangata ʻae lea fakatātā ko ia, pea ʻe ʻikai toe lea fakatātā ʻaki ia ʻi ʻIsileli; ka ke pehē ʻe koe kiate kinautolu, Kuo ofi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho mo e fakamoʻoni ʻoe meʻa hā mai kotoa pē.
24For there shall be no more any false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel.
24He koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai kei ʻi ai ha meʻa hā mai ko e vaʻinga, pe ha fai kikite ko e lapu, ʻi he fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli.
25For I am the LORD; I will speak the word that I will speak, and it will be performed. It will no longer be delayed, but in your days, O rebellious house, I will speak the word and perform it, declares the Lord GOD.”
25He ko Sihova au: Te u lea, pea ko e lea te u lea ʻaki ʻe hoko mo fai; ʻe ʻikai toe fakatuai: he ko e lolotonga ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi ʻaho, ʻe fale angatuʻu, te u lea ʻaki ʻae lea, pea fai mo hono fakamoʻoni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
26And the word of the LORD came to me:
26Pea naʻe toe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
27“Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, ‘The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he prophesies of times far off.’
27“Foha ʻoe tangata, vakai ʻoku lea ʻakinautolu ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Ko e meʻa hā mai ʻoku ne mamata ai ko e meʻa ki he ngaahi ʻaho kei tuai, pea ʻoku ne kikite ki he ngaahi kuonga ʻoku kei mamaʻo.
28Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: None of my words will be delayed any longer, but the word that I speak will be performed, declares the Lord GOD.”
28Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻE ʻikai toe fakatuotuai haʻaku lea ʻe taha, ka ko e lea ʻaia kuo u lea ʻaki ʻe fai, ʻoku pehē ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
