ʻIsikieli 26
1In the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me:
1PEA ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono hongofulu ma taha taʻu, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe māhina, naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
2“Son of man, because Tyre said concerning Jerusalem, ‘Aha, the gate of the peoples is broken; it has swung open to me. I shall be replenished, now that she is laid waste,’
2“Foha ʻoe tangata, koeʻuhi kuo lea pehē ʻe Taia ki Selūsalema, ‘Maʻitoʻa, kuo maumauʻi ia, ko e matanikolo naʻe kakaiʻia: kuo tafoki mai kiate au: te u maʻumeʻa au ʻi hono fakalala.’
3therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and will bring up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves.
3Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu kiate koe, ʻE Taia, pea te u pule ke ʻalu hake kiate koe ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga lahi, ʻo hangē ko e loloma hake ʻe he tahi ʻa hono peau.
4They shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers, and I will scrape her soil from her and make her a bare rock.
4Pea te nau maumauʻi ʻae ngaahi ʻā ʻo Taia, pea holoki hifo hono ngaahi fale leʻo māʻolunga: Te u vaku foki hono efu meiate ia, pea te u ngaohi ia ke tatau mo e funga maka pē.
5She shall be in the midst of the sea a place for the spreading of nets, for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD. And she shall become plunder for the nations,
5ʻE hoko ia ko e potu tautauʻanga kupenga ʻi he loto tahi: he ko au ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua, kuo lea ki ai: pea ʻe hoko ia ko e koloa vete ki he ngaahi puleʻanga.
6and her daughters on the mainland shall be killed by the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
6Pea ʻe tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻa hono ngaahi ʻofefine ʻaia ʻe ʻi he ngoueʻanga: pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
7“For thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring against Tyre from the north Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, with horses and chariots, and with horsemen and a host of many soldiers.
7He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: “Vakai te u ʻomi ki Taia ʻa Nepukalesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko e tuʻi ʻi he ngaahi tuʻi, mei he tokelau, ʻe haʻu mo e hoosi, pea mo e saliote, pea mo e kau heka hoosi, mo e ngaahi matatau, mo e kakai tokolahi.
8He will kill with the sword your daughters on the mainland. He will set up a siege wall against you and throw up a mound against you, and raise a roof of shields against you.
8Te ne tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻa ho ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoku ʻi he ngoueʻanga: pea te ne ngaohi kolo kiate koe, mo tanu puke kiate koe, pea hiki hake ʻae mahafutau kiate koe.
9He will direct the shock of his battering rams against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
9Pea te ne fokotuʻu ʻae nāunau ʻoe tau ki ho ngaahi ʻā, pea ʻe maumau ʻaki hono toki ʻa ho ngaahi fale leʻo māʻolunga.
10His horses will be so many that their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen and wagons and chariots, when he enters your gates as men enter a city that has been breached.
10Pea ʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae efu ko e meʻa ʻi he tokolahi ʻo ʻene fanga hoosi: ʻe ngalulu ho ngaahi ʻā ʻi he longoaʻa ʻae kau heka hoosi mo e vaʻe saliote, mo e ngaahi saliote, ʻoka hū ia ki ho ngaahi matapā ʻo hangē ko e ʻoho ʻae kakai ki ha kolo ʻoku kapasi.
11With the hoofs of his horses he will trample all your streets. He will kill your people with the sword, and your mighty pillars will fall to the ground.
11ʻE malaki ʻaki ʻae vaʻe ʻo ʻene fanga hoosi ho hala kotoa pē: te ne tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻa hoʻo kakai, pea ʻe holoki hifo ki he kelekele ʻa hoʻo ngaahi kolo tau mālohi.
12They will plunder your riches and loot your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. Your stones and timber and soil they will cast into the midst of the waters.
12Pea te nau veteki ʻa hoʻo koloa, pea maʻu fakamālohi hoʻo ngaahi meʻa fakatau: pea te nau holoki ho ngaahi ʻā, mo maumauʻi ho ngaahi fale fakasanisani: pea te nau laku ki loto tahi hoʻo ngaahi maka mo hoʻo ʻakau, pea mo ho efu.
13And I will stop the music of your songs, and the sound of your lyres shall be heard no more.
13Pea te u ngaohi ke longo hifo ʻae leʻo ʻo hoʻo kau fasi hiva; pea ʻe ʻikai toe ongo mai ʻae tatangi ʻo hoʻo ngaahi haʻape.
14I will make you a bare rock. You shall be a place for the spreading of nets. You shall never be rebuilt, for I am the LORD; I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD.
14Pea te u ngaohi koe ke tatau mo e funga maka: te ke hoko koe ko e potu tautauʻanga kupenga; ʻe ʻikai toe langa koe: he ko au ko Sihova, kuo u lea ki ai, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
15“Thus says the Lord GOD to Tyre: Will not the coastlands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when slaughter is made in your midst?
15ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ki Taia; “ʻIkai ʻe tetetete ʻae ngaahi motu ʻi he longoaʻa ʻo hoʻo hinga, ʻoka pā hake ʻae tangi ʻanautolu kuo teʻia, ʻoka hoko ʻae tāmateʻi ʻi loto ʻiate koe?
16Then all the princes of the sea will step down from their thrones and remove their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling; they will sit on the ground and tremble every moment and be appalled at you.
16ʻE ʻalu hifo ai ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe tahi, mei honau ngaahi nofoʻa fakatuʻi, pea tuku atu honau ngaahi kofu; te na kofuʻaki ʻae manavahē; te nau nofo hifo ki he kelekele, pea te nau tetetete maʻuaipē, pea nau ofo ʻaupito koeʻuhi ko koe.
17And they will raise a lamentation over you and say to you, “‘How you have perished, you who were inhabited from the seas, O city renowned, who was mighty on the sea; she and her inhabitants imposed their terror on all her inhabitants!
17Pea te nau fai ʻae tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻo pehē kiate koe, ʻOiauē ʻa ho maumauʻi, ʻa koe naʻe fakakakai ʻe he kau toutai, ʻa koe ko e kolo ongoongo, ʻaia naʻe mālohi ʻi tahi, ʻaia pea mo hono kakai, ʻa koe naʻa ke fakamanavahēʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
18Now the coastlands tremble on the day of your fall, and the coastlands that are on the sea are dismayed at your passing.’
18ʻE tetetete ʻae ngaahi motu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe holoki ai koe; ʻio, ʻe puputuʻu ʻae ngaahi motu ʻoe tahi ko e meʻa ʻi he hiki atu koe.”
19“For thus says the Lord GOD: When I make you a city laid waste, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep over you, and the great waters cover you,
19He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻO kau ka ngaohi koe ko e kolo kuo lala, ʻo tatau mo e ngaahi kolo ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ha kakai; ʻo kau ka ʻomi ʻae tahi kiate koe pea lōmaki ʻaki koe ʻae moana loloto.
20then I will make you go down with those who go down to the pit, to the people of old, and I will make you to dwell in the world below, among ruins from of old, with those who go down to the pit, so that you will not be inhabited; but I will set beauty in the land of the living.
20ʻO kau ka fakahifo koe ki lalo fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he luo, pea mo e kakai naʻe ʻi muʻa ange, pea u tuku koe ki he potu māʻulalo ʻoe kelekele, ʻi he ngaahi potu siʻaki talu mei muʻa, ke fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he luo, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ke kei kakai; pea te u fokotuʻu ʻae nāunau ʻi he fonua ʻae moʻui;
21I will bring you to a dreadful end, and you shall be no more. Though you be sought for, you will never be found again, declares the Lord GOD.”
21Te u ngaohi koe ko e meʻa fakaʻulia, pea te ke ʻikai ʻo taʻengata: neongo ha kumi kiate koe, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito toe ʻilo koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
