ʻIsaia 54

1“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear; break forth into singing and cry aloud, you who have not been in labor! For the children of the desolate one will be more than the children of her who is married,” says the LORD.

1“HIVA, ʻae paʻa, ʻa koe naʻe ʻikai te ke fānau; ke ke hiva, pea kalanga leʻo lahi, ʻa koe naʻe ʻikai te ke langā ʻi ha tamasiʻi:” he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻOku tokolahi hake ʻae fānau ʻae liʻaki ʻi he fānau ʻoe fefine kuo mali.

2“Enlarge the place of your tent, and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; do not hold back; lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes.

2Fakalahi ʻae potu ʻo ho fale fehikitaki, pea tuku ke nau fofola ʻae puipui ʻo ho ngaahi nofoʻanga: ʻoua ʻe taʻofi, fakalōloa hoʻo ngaahi afo, pea tutuki ke maʻu hoʻo ngaahi tuki poupou;

3For you will spread abroad to the right and to the left, and your offspring will possess the nations and will people the desolate cities.

3He te ke ʻalu atu ki he nima toʻomataʻu, pea ki he toʻohema; pea ʻe maʻu ʻa ho hako ʻae ngaahi Senitaile, pea ʻe fakakakai ʻae ngaahi kolo naʻe lala.

4“Fear not, for you will not be ashamed; be not confounded, for you will not be disgraced; for you will forget the shame of your youth, and the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more.

4“ʻOua ʻe manavahē; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ke mā: pea ʻoua naʻa ke puputuʻu koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai fakamaaʻi koe: he te ke fakangaloʻi ʻae mā ʻo hoʻo kei talavou, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke toe manatu ki he valoki ʻo hoʻo nofo taka pe ʻi he mate ho ʻunoho.

5For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name; and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth he is called.

5He ko ho Tupuʻanga kuo fakamaau mo koe; ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ko hono huafa ia; pea ko ho Huhuʻi ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli; ʻe ui ia ko e ʻOtua ʻo māmani kotoa pē.

6For the LORD has called you like a wife deserted and grieved in spirit, like a wife of youth when she is cast off, says your God.

6He kuo ui koe ʻe Sihova ʻo hangē ko e fefine liʻaki pea mamahi ʻi hono laumālie, pea hangē ko e ʻunoho ʻi heʻene kei siʻi, ka kuo liʻaki,” ʻoku pehē ʻe ho ʻOtua.

7For a brief moment I deserted you, but with great compassion I will gather you.

7“ʻI he kihiʻi fuoloa siʻi kuo u liʻaki koe; ka ʻi he ngaahi ʻaloʻofa lahi te u tānaki koe.

8In overflowing anger for a moment I hid my face from you, but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD, your Redeemer.

8‌ʻI he houhau siʻi naʻaku fufū hoku fofonga meiate koe ʻi he kemo pe; ka ʻi he ʻofa taʻengata te u ʻaloʻofa kiate koe, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko ho Huhuʻi.

9“This is like the days of Noah to me: as I swore that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you, and will not rebuke you.

9“He ʻoku tatau ʻae meʻa ni kiate au mo e ngaahi vai ʻo Noa: ʻo hangē kuo u fuakava ʻe ʻikai toe lōmaki ʻa māmani ʻaki ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo Noa; ʻoku pehē ʻeku fuakava ʻe ʻikai teu houhau kiate koe, pe valokiʻi koe.

10For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

10Koeʻuhi ʻe mole ʻae ngaahi moʻunga, pea hiki mo e ngaahi tafungofunga; ka ko ʻeku ʻofa ʻe ʻikai mole meiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai hiki ʻae fuakava ʻo ʻeku melino, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ʻaloʻofa kiate koe.

11“O afflicted one, storm-tossed and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in antimony, and lay your foundations with sapphires.

11“ʻA koe koe mamahi, pea vilingia ʻi he matangi, pea taʻefiemālie, vakai, te u ʻai hoʻo ngaahi maka ʻi he lanu lelei, pea ʻai hoʻo ngaahi tuʻunga ʻaki ʻae ngaahi safaia.

12I will make your pinnacles of agate, your gates of carbuncles, and all your wall of precious stones.

12Pea te u ngaohi ho ngaahi matapā sioʻata ʻaki ʻae ʻakete, pea mo ho ngaahi matapā ʻaki ʻae kapunikale, pea mo ho ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻaki ʻae ngaahi maka mahuʻinga.

13All your children shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be the peace of your children.

13Pea ʻe akonakiʻi ʻe Sihova hoʻo fānau kotoa pē; pea ʻe lahi ʻae fiemālie ʻi hoʻo fānau.

14In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you.

14‌ʻE fokotuʻumaʻu koe ʻi he māʻoniʻoni: te ke mamaʻo mo e fakamālohia; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ke manavahē: pea mei he ilifia; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai haʻu ia ʻo ofi kiate koe.

15If anyone stirs up strife, it is not from me; whoever stirs up strife with you shall fall because of you.

15Vakai, ko e moʻoni te nau tānaki fakataha, ka e ʻikai ʻiate au: ko ia kotoa pē ʻe fakataha ko e fili kiate koe ʻe hinga koeʻuhi ko koe.

16Behold, I have created the smith who blows the fire of coals and produces a weapon for its purpose. I have also created the ravager to destroy;

16“Vakai, kuo u fakatupu ʻae tufunga ukamea ʻaia ʻoku tapili ʻae malala ʻi he afi, pea ʻoku ʻomi ʻae meʻa fakatufunga ki heʻene ngāue; pea kuo u fakatupu ʻae fakaʻauha ke fakaʻauhaʻi.

17no weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me, declares the LORD.”

17‌ʻE ʻikai monūʻia ha mahafutau kuo ngaohi ke tauʻi koe; pea ko e ʻelelo kotoa pē ʻe lea kovi kiate koe te ke fakamalaʻia ʻi he fakamaau. Ko eni ʻae tofiʻa ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku meiate au ʻenau māʻoniʻoni,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
