ʻIsaia 45
1Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have grasped, to subdue nations before him and to loose the belts of kings, to open doors before him that gates may not be closed:
1ʻOKU pehē ʻe Sihova ki heʻene pani, kia Kolesi, ʻaia kuo u puke ki hono nima toʻomataʻu, ke fakavaivai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻi hono ʻao; pea te u vete ʻae noʻotanga vala ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi, ke fakaava ʻi hono ʻao ʻae ngaahi matapā louua pea ʻe ʻikai tāpuni ʻae ngaahi matapā;
2“I will go before you and level the exalted places, I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut through the bars of iron,
2“Te u muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe, pea ngaohi ʻae ngaahi potu pikopiko ke totonu: te u laiki ʻae ngaahi matapā palasa, pea tuʻusi ke motu ʻae ngaahi ukamea fakamaʻu:
3I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hoards in secret places, that you may know that it is I, the LORD, the God of Israel, who call you by your name.
3Pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae koloa ʻoe poʻuli, mo e koloa fufū ʻoe ngaahi potu lilo, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ko au, ko Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ui koe ʻaki ho hingoa, ko au ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
4For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my chosen, I call you by your name, I name you, though you do not know me.
4Koeʻuhi ko Sēkope ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, mo ʻIsileli kuo u fili, kuo u ui ʻaki koe ho hingoa: kuo u fakahingoa koe, ka ʻoku teʻeki te ke ʻilo au.
5I am the LORD, and there is no other, besides me there is no God; I equip you, though you do not know me,
5Ko au ko Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha, ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻOtua mo au: naʻaku fakakofuʻi koe, ka ʻoku teʻeki te ke ʻilo au:
6that people may know, from the rising of the sun and from the west, that there is none besides me; I am the LORD, and there is no other.
6Koeʻuhi ke nau ʻilo mei he hopoʻangalaʻā, pea mei he lulunga, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha mo au. Ko au ko Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha.
7I form light and create darkness, I make well-being and create calamity, I am the LORD, who does all these things.
7Kuo u ngaohi ʻae maama, pea fakatupu mo e poʻuli: ʻoku ou fakahoko ʻae melino, pea fakatupu mo e tau: ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.
8“Shower, O heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain down righteousness; let the earth open, that salvation and righteousness may bear fruit; let the earth cause them both to sprout; I the LORD have created it.
8Mapee hifo, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi langi mei ʻolunga, pea tuku ke lilingi ʻe he ngaahi ʻao ʻae māʻoniʻoni: tuku ke fakamanga ʻae kelekele, pea tuku ke tupu ai ʻae moʻui, pea tuku ke tupu fakataha mo e angatonu; ko au ko Sihova kuo u fakatupu ia.
9“Woe to him who strives with him who formed him, a pot among earthen pots! Does the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’ or ‘Your work has no handles’?
9ʻE malaʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku fekuki mo hono Tupuʻanga! Tuku ke fai ʻe he konga ipu maumau mo e ngaahi konga ipu maumau ʻoe kelekele. ʻE pehē ʻe he ʻumea kiate ia ʻoku ne fakafuofua ia, “Ko e hā kuo ke ngaohi?” Pe ko hoʻo ngāue, “ʻOku ʻikai hano nima?”
10Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What are you begetting?’ or to a woman, ‘With what are you in labor?’”
10ʻE malaʻia ia ʻoku pehē ki heʻene tamai, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakatupu?” Pe ki he fefine, “Ko e hā ia kuo ke fanauʻi?”
11Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and the one who formed him: “Ask me of things to come; will you command me concerning my children and the work of my hands?
11ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, mo hono Tupuʻanga, “Fehuʻi kiate au ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko ʻoku kau ki hoku ngaahi foha, pea ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻa hoku nima mou fekau mai kiate au.
12I made the earth and created man on it; it was my hands that stretched out the heavens, and I commanded all their host.
12Kuo u ngaohi ʻa māmani, pea fakatupu mo e tangata ʻi ai: ko au, kuo u folahi ʻe hoku nima ʻae ngaahi langi, pea kuo u fekau ki honau tokolahi kotoa pē.
13I have stirred him up in righteousness, and I will make all his ways level; he shall build my city and set my exiles free, not for price or reward,” says the LORD of hosts.
13ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “kuo u fokotuʻu hake ia ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea te u fakahinohino hono ngaahi hala kotoa pē: te ne langa ʻeku kolo, pea te ne tukuange ʻeku ngaahi pōpula, ka e ʻikai koeʻuhi ko e fakatau, pe ko e totongi.
14Thus says the LORD: “The wealth of Egypt and the merchandise of Cush, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you and be yours; they shall follow you; they shall come over in chains and bow down to you. They will plead with you, saying: ‘Surely God is in you, and there is no other, no god besides him.’”
14ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE haʻu kiate koe ʻae ngāue ʻa ʻIsipite, mo e koloa ʻa ʻItiopea, pea mo e kakai Sipa, ko e kau tangata lalahi, pea ʻe ʻaʻau ʻakinautolu: te nau muimui ʻiate koe; ʻi he ukamea fihifihi te nau aʻu mai, pea te nau tō ki lalo kiate koe, te nau kole kiate koe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua; pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha tokotaha, ʻoku ʻikai mo ha ʻOtua.’|”
15Truly, you are a God who hides himself, O God of Israel, the Savior.
15Ko e moʻoni ko koe ko e ʻOtua ʻoku ke fufū koe, ʻE ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e Fakamoʻui.”
16All of them are put to shame and confounded; the makers of idols go in confusion together.
16Te nau mā, pea puputuʻu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē: ʻe tutuku fakataha ʻi he maveuveu ʻakinautolu ʻoku ngaohi tamapua.
17But Israel is saved by the LORD with everlasting salvation; you shall not be put to shame or confounded to all eternity.
17Ka e fakamoʻui ʻa ʻIsileli ʻia Sihova ʻaki ʻae moʻui taʻengata: ʻe ʻikai te mou mā pe puputuʻu ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata.
18For thus says the LORD, who created the heavens (he is God!), who formed the earth and made it (he established it; he did not create it empty, he formed it to be inhabited!): “I am the LORD, and there is no other.
18He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi langi; ko e ʻOtua pe ʻaia naʻe fakafuofua ʻa māmani mo fakatupu ia; kuo ne fokotuʻumaʻu ia, naʻe ʻikai te ne ngaohi ke taʻeʻaonga ia, naʻa ne fakafuofua ia ke nofo ai ʻae kakai: “ko au ko Sihova: pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha tokotaha.
19I did not speak in secret, in a land of darkness; I did not say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I the LORD speak the truth; I declare what is right.
19Naʻe ʻikai te u lea ʻi he lilo, ʻi ha potu fakapoʻuli ʻo māmani: naʻe ʻikai te u pehē taʻeʻaonga ki he hako ʻo Sēkope, ‘Kumi kiate au:’ Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou lea ʻaki ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻoku ou fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku totonu.”
20“Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, you survivors of the nations! They have no knowledge who carry about their wooden idols, and keep on praying to a god that cannot save.
20“Fakataha ʻakimoutolu pea haʻu; ʻunuʻunu mai ke ofi ʻakimoutolu kuo hao ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga: ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻae ʻakau ʻo ʻenau tamapua kuo tongi, pea hū ki he ʻotua ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakamoʻui.
21Declare and present your case; let them take counsel together! Who told this long ago? Who declared it of old? Was it not I, the LORD? And there is no other god besides me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none besides me.
21Mou tala, pea ʻomi ke ofi ʻakinautolu, ʻio, tuku ke nau fakakaukau fakataha: ko hai kuo ne fakahā ʻae meʻa ni mei he kuonga ʻi muʻa? Ko hai kuo ne tala ia mei he kuonga ko ia? ʻIkai ko au ko Sihova? Pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha ʻOtua mo au; ko e ʻOtua angatonu pea ko e Fakamoʻui; ʻoku ʻikai ha taha mo au.
22“Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.
22“Sio mai kiate au pea mou moʻui ai, ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: he ko au pe ko e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha.
23By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.’
23Kuo u fuakava ʻiate au pe, kuo ʻalu atu ʻae folofola ʻi hoku fofonga ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻe ʻikai foki ia, ʻE peluki ʻae tui kotoa pē kiate au, ʻe fuakava mo e ʻelelo kotoa pē.
24“Only in the LORD, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.
24Ko e moʻoni, ʻe pehē ʻe ha tokotaha, ‘ʻOku ou maʻu ʻae māʻoniʻoni mo e mālohi ʻia Sihova:’|” ʻio, ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kakai; pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻita kiate ia ʻe mā.
25In the LORD all the offspring of Israel shall be justified and shall glory.”
25ʻE tonuhia ʻia Sihova ʻae hako kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea te nau vikiviki ai.
