Selemaia 25
1The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (that was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
1KO E lea naʻe haʻu kia Selemaia ʻoku kau ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e ʻuluaki taʻu ia ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone;
2which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
2ʻAia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, ʻo ne pehē,
3“For twenty-three years, from the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, to this day, the word of the LORD has come to me, and I have spoken persistently to you, but you have not listened.
3“Talu mei hono hongofulu ma tolu taʻu ʻo Siosaia, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia ko hono uofulu ma tolu taʻu eni, kuo haʻu kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, pea kuo u lea ʻaki ia kiate kimoutolu, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻo lea; ka naʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo.
4You have neither listened nor inclined your ears to hear, although the LORD persistently sent to you all his servants the prophets,
4Pea kuo fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻo fekau ʻakinautolu: ka kuo ʻikai te mou fanongo, pe fakatokanga homou telinga ke ongoʻi.
5saying, ‘Turn now, every one of you, from his evil way and evil deeds, and dwell upon the land that the LORD has given to you and your fathers from of old and forever.
5Naʻa nau pehē, Mou taki taha tafoki mei hono hala kovi, pea mei he kovi ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga, pea nofo ʻi he fonua kuo foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu pea mo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata:
6Do not go after other gods to serve and worship them, or provoke me to anger with the work of your hands. Then I will do you no harm.’
6Pea ʻoua ʻe muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe ʻo tauhi ʻakinautolu, pe lotu kiate kinautolu, pea ʻoua naʻa mou fakahouhauʻi au ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻa homou nima; pea ʻe ʻikai te u fai ha kovi kiate kimoutolu.
7Yet you have not listened to me, declares the LORD, that you might provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own harm.
7ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou tokanga kiate au, koeʻuhi ʻoku mou fakahouhau kiate au ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻa homou nima ke mou kovi ai.”
8“Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts: Because you have not obeyed my words,
8Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea,
9behold, I will send for all the tribes of the north, declares the LORD, and for Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants, and against all these surrounding nations. I will devote them to destruction, and make them a horror, a hissing, and an everlasting desolation.
9‘Vakai, Te u fekau ke fetuku ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻoe tokelau, mo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Teu ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ni, pea ki hono kakai, pea ki he ngaahi kakai ʻoku nofo takatakai ai, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu, pea te u ngaohi ʻakinautolu ko e meʻa fakaʻulia, mo e manukiʻanga, pea mo e fakaʻauha ʻo taʻengata.
10Moreover, I will banish from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the grinding of the millstones and the light of the lamp.
10Pea te u toʻo meiate kinautolu ʻae leʻo ʻoe fiefia, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe nekeneka, ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangata taʻane, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe taʻahine, pea mo e ʻuʻulu ʻoe maka momosi, pea mo e ulo ʻoe tūhulu.
11This whole land shall become a ruin and a waste, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
11Pea ʻe hoko ʻae fonua ni kotoa pē ko e fakaʻauha, pea ko e fakailifia; pea ʻe ngāue ʻae kakai ni ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitungofulu.
12Then after seventy years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, declares the LORD, making the land an everlasting waste.
12Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka kakato ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu, te u tautea ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo hono kakai: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau kovi, pea mo e fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia, pea te u ngaohi ia ko e fakaʻauha ʻo taʻengata.
13I will bring upon that land all the words that I have uttered against it, everything written in this book, which Jeremiah prophesied against all the nations.
13Pea te u ʻomi ki he fonua ko ia ʻeku ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u lea ki ai, ʻio, ko e meʻa kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni, ʻaia kuo kikite ʻaki ʻe Selemaia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
14For many nations and great kings shall make slaves even of them, and I will recompense them according to their deeds and the work of their hands.”
14Koeʻuhi ʻe pule kiate kinautolu foki ʻae ngaahi kakai, mo e ngaahi tuʻi lahi pea te u ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngaahi faianga, pea hangē ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻa honau nima.
15Thus the LORD, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from my hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it.
15He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli kiate au: “Toʻo mei hoku nima ʻae ipu uaine ʻoe houhau ni, pea ʻatu ia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻaia te u fekau koe ki ai, ke nau inu ia.
16They shall drink and stagger and be crazed because of the sword that I am sending among them.”
16Pea te nau inu, pea tasipa, pea faha, koeʻuhi ko e heletā te u fekau kiate kinautolu.”
17So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand, and made all the nations to whom the LORD sent me drink it:
17Pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae ipu mei he nima ʻo Sihova, peau fakainu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fekau au ki ai ʻe Sihova:
18Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a desolation and a waste, a hissing and a curse, as at this day;
18Ko Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea mo hono ngaahi tuʻi, pea mo hono houʻeiki ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ko e fakaʻauha, ko e ofoʻanga, ko e manukiʻanga, pea ko e malaʻia; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo hoko he ʻaho ni.
19Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his officials, all his people,
19Ko Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo hono ngaahi houʻeiki, pea mo hono kakai kotoa pē.
20and all the mixed tribes among them; all the kings of the land of Uz and all the kings of the land of the Philistines (Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod);
20Pea mo e kakai kehekehe kotoa pē, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko Usa, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau Filisitia, mo ʻAsikeloni, mo ʻAsa, mo Ekiloni, pea mo hono toe ʻo ʻAsitoti.
21Edom, Moab, and the sons of Ammon;
21Ko ʻItomi, mo Moape, pea mo e fonua ʻo ʻAmoni.
22all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the coastland across the sea;
22Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Taia, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Saitone, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe ngaahi potu ʻi he matātahi,
23Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair;
23Ko Titani, mo Tima, mo Pusi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi muileleu mamaʻo,
24all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the mixed tribes who dwell in the desert;
24Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻAlepea, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kakai kehekehe ʻoku nofo ʻi he toafa,
25all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of Media;
25Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Simili, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻIlami, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe kau Mitea,
26all the kings of the north, far and near, one after another, and all the kingdoms of the world that are on the face of the earth. And after them the king of Babylon shall drink.
26Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe tokelau, ʻae ofi mo e mamaʻo ʻo lau fakataha, pea mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻoe kelekele: pea ʻe inu fakamuimui ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tuʻi ʻo Sisaki.
27“Then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink, be drunk and vomit, fall and rise no more, because of the sword that I am sending among you.’
27Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻe ʻIsileli; Mou inu, ke mou konā, mo lua, mo hinga, pea ʻoua naʻa toetuʻu hake, koeʻuhi ko e heletā ʻaia te u fekau kiate kimoutolu.
28“And if they refuse to accept the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: You must drink!
28Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau fie toʻo ʻae ipu ʻi ho nima ke nau inu, ke ke toki pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Ko e moʻoni te mou inu.
29For behold, I begin to work disaster at the city that is called by my name, and shall you go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, for I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the LORD of hosts.’
29He ko eni, Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻomi ni ʻae kovi ki he kolo ʻaia ʻoku ui ʻaki ʻa hoku huafa, pea te mou hao ʻaupito ʻo taʻetautea? ʻE ʻikai tuku taʻetautea ʻakimoutolu: he teu ui ki he heletā ke hoko ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
30“You, therefore, shall prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: “‘The LORD will roar from on high, and from his holy habitation utter his voice; he will roar mightily against his fold, and shout, like those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
30“Ko ia ke ke kikite ʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē, pea tala kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻE mana ʻa Sihova mei ʻolunga, pea ʻe ongo atu hono leʻo mei hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni; te ne ngungulu lahi ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga; te ne kalanga ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻo hangē ko kinautolu ʻoku malamalaki ki he fua ʻoe vaine.
31The clamor will resound to the ends of the earth, for the LORD has an indictment against the nations; he is entering into judgment with all flesh, and the wicked he will put to the sword, declares the LORD.’
31ʻE ai ʻae longoaʻa mai ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani; he ʻoku fekovikoviʻi ʻa Sihova mo e ngaahi kakai, te ne alea mo e kakano kotoa pē: pea te ne tukuange ʻae angahala ki he heletā, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.’|”
32“Thus says the LORD of hosts: Behold, disaster is going forth from nation to nation, and a great tempest is stirring from the farthest parts of the earth!
32ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Vakai, ʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kovi mei he kakai, ki he kakai, pea ʻe fakatupu mei he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani ʻae ʻahiohio lahi.
33“And those pierced by the LORD on that day shall extend from one end of the earth to the other. They shall not be lamented, or gathered, or buried; they shall be dung on the surface of the ground.
33Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova mei hono ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo māmani ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo māmani: pea ʻe ʻikai ha mamahi koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai tānaki, pe tanu: ka ʻe hoko ʻakinautolu ko e kinohaʻa ʻi he funga fonua.
34“Wail, you shepherds, and cry out, and roll in ashes, you lords of the flock, for the days of your slaughter and dispersion have come, and you shall fall like a choice vessel.
34Tangi, mo tangilāulau ʻakimoutolu ko e kau tauhi, pea fetafokifokiʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he efuefu, ko kimoutolu ko e tauhi lahi; he kuo hokosia ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou fakamovetevete, pea mo hoʻomou tāmateʻi; pea ʻe maumauʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻo hangē ko e ipu maʻungataʻa.
35No refuge will remain for the shepherds, nor escape for the lords of the flock.
35Pea ʻe ʻikai ha hala ke hola ai ʻae kau tauhi, pe ha haoʻanga ki he tauhi lahi.
36A voice—the cry of the shepherds, and the wail of the lords of the flock! For the LORD is laying waste their pasture,
36ʻE ongo mai ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangi ʻae kau tauhi, pea mo e tangilāulau ʻae tauhi lahi: he kuo maumauʻi ʻe Sihova ʻenau ngoue.
37and the peaceful folds are devastated because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
37Pea kuo tuʻusi ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga fiemālie koeʻuhi ko e houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.
38Like a lion he has left his lair, for their land has become a waste because of the sword of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.”
38Kuo ne liʻaki hono ʻana, ʻo hangē ko e laione: he kuo lala ʻa honau fonua, koeʻuhi ko e ʻita lahi ʻoe fakamālohi, pea koeʻuhi ko e kakaha ʻo hono houhau.
