耶利米書 47

1 在法郎尚未進攻迦薩以前，關於培肋舍特，上主有話傳給耶肋米亞先知說：

Ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kau Filisitia, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke taaʻi ʻe Felo ʻa Kesa.

2 上主這樣說：「看，有水從北方湧來，形成一條氾濫的河流，淹沒大地和地上的一切，首都和其中的居民；人們必要喊叫，大地所有的居民必要哀號。

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Vakai, ʻoku tupu ʻae ngaahi vai mei he tokelau, pea ʻe hoko ia ko e vai fonu mahakehake lahi, pea ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae fonua pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai: ko e kolo mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi ai: pea ʻe toki tangi ʻae kau tangata, pea ʻe tangilāulau ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.

3 一聽到他駿馬的鐵蹄聲，轔轔的戰車聲，和隆隆的飛輪聲，為父親的已束手無策，不能再顧及自己的兒子，

Ko e meʻa ʻi he patatū ʻae vaʻe ʻoe fanga hoosi mālohi, mo e meʻa ʻi he lele ʻae ngaahi saliote, pea mo e longoaʻa ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote, ʻe ʻikai sio ki mui ʻae ngaahi tamai ki heʻenau fānau ko e meʻa ʻi he vaivai ʻa honau nima;

4 因為消滅一切培肋舍特人，和摧毀提洛及漆冬一切殘餘助手的日子來到了，上主要消滅培肋舍特人，加非托爾島的遺民

Koeʻuhi ko e ʻaho ʻaia ʻoku haʻu ke fakaʻauha ai ʻae kau Filisitia kotoa pē, pea ke tuʻusi mei Taia mo Saitone ʻae tokoni kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku toe: koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻae kau Filisitia, ko e toenga ʻoe fonua ko Kafitoli.

5 迦薩已一片荒涼，阿市刻隆已遭受滅亡；阿納克人的遺民，你們要割傷己身到何時呢﹖

Kuo hoko ʻae tula ki Kesa; kuo tuʻusi ʻa ʻAsikiloni mo e toenga ʻi honau teleʻa: ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo hoʻo maumauʻi koe ʻe koe?

6 唉! 上主的刀劍! 到何時纔休息﹖請你入鞘休息安歇罷!

“‘ʻA koe ko e heletā ʻo Sihova, ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa pea ke toki fiemālie? Ke ke ʻai koe ki ho ʻaiʻanga, pea mālōlō, mo fiemālie.

7 但上主既對它出了命，它怎能休息﹖阿市刻隆和海濱，是他給它指向的地方。

“ʻE fēfē ʻene fiemālie, he kuo fekauʻi ia ʻe Sihova ki ʻAsikiloni, pea mo e matātahi? Kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ia ki ai.”
