Isaiah 63

1 Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, this who is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.

Ko hai eni ʻoku haʻu mei ʻItomi, mo e kofu kulokula mei Posila? ʻA eni ʻoku nāunauʻia hono kofu, ʻo ne hāʻele ʻi he lahi ʻo hono mālohi? “Ko au ia ʻoku folofola ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, ko e māfimafi ke fakamoʻui.”

2 Why are thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him who treads in the wine vat?

Ko e hā ʻoku kulokula ai ho ngaahi kofu, pea tatau ho ngaahi kofu mo ia ʻoku molomoloki ʻi he tataʻoʻanga uaine?

3 I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with me. Yea, I trod them in my anger, and trampled them in my wrath, and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment.

“Kuo u molomoloki tokotaha pe ʻae tataʻoʻanga ʻoe uaine; pea naʻe ʻikai kau ha tokotaha kiate au: ne u molomoloki ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻeku ʻita, pea moeʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi hoku houhau lahi; pea kuo pani hoku kofuʻaki honau toto, pea ne u ngaohi ke lanu hoku ngaahi kofu kotoa pē.

4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.

He ʻoku ʻi hoku loto ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fai totongi, pea kuo hokosia ʻae taʻu ʻo hoku huhuʻi.

5 And I looked, and there was none to help. And I wondered that there was none to uphold. Therefore my own arm brought salvation to me. And my wrath, it upheld me.

Pea ne u vakai, pea naʻe ʻikai ha taha ke tokoni; pea ne u ofo ʻi he ʻikai ha taha ke poupou hake: ko ia naʻe ʻomi ʻe hoku nima ʻoʻoku ʻae fakamoʻui kiate au; pea ko hoku houhau, naʻa ne poupou au.

6 And I trod down the peoples in my anger, and made them drunk in my wrath, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.

Pea ne u molomoloki ʻae kakai ʻi hoku houhau, pea ngaohi ke nau konā ʻi he houhau lahi, pea ne u ʻomi ʻenau mālohi ki he kelekele.”

7 I will make mention of the loving kindnesses of Jehovah, and the praises of Jehovah, according to all that Jehovah has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

Te u fakahā ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova, mo e ngaahi fakamālō ʻa Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē kuo foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kitautolu, pea mo e angalelei lahi ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko ʻene ngaahi ʻaloʻofa, ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻaupito ʻo ʻene ʻaloʻofa ongongofua.

8 For he said, Surely, they are my people, sons that will not deal falsely. So he was their Savior.

He naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e moʻoni ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu, ko e fānau ʻe ʻikai te nau loi;” pea naʻe hoko ia ko honau Fakamoʻui.

9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the agent of his presence saved them. In his love and in his pity he redeemed them. And he bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

‌ʻI heʻenau mamahi kotoa pē naʻe mamahi ia, pea ko e ʻāngelo ʻo hono ʻao naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu: ʻi heʻene ʻofa mo ʻene manavaʻofa naʻa ne huhuʻi ʻakinautolu: pea ne toʻo hake ʻakinautolu, mo fua ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻi muʻa.

10 But they rebelled, and grieved his holy Spirit. Therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and himself fought against them.

Ka naʻa nau angatuʻu, pea fakamamahi ki hono Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni: ko ia naʻe liliu ai ia ko honau fili, pea naʻa ne tauʻi ʻakinautolu.

11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying, Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put his holy Spirit in the midst of them,

Pea naʻa ne manatu ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa, kia Mōsese, mo hono kakai, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻi fē ia naʻe ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he tahi, fakataha mo e tauhi ʻo ʻene fanga sipi? ʻOku ʻi fē ia ʻaia naʻe ʻai kiate ia hono Laumālie māʻoniʻoni?

12 who caused his glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses, who divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name,

‌ʻAia naʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo Mōsese, ʻaki ʻa hono nima nāunauʻia, ʻo vaheʻi ʻae vai ʻi honau ʻao, ke ngaohi moʻona ha huafa taʻengata?

13 who led them through the depths, as a horse in the wilderness, so that they stumbled not?

‌ʻAia naʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he moana, ʻo hangē ko e hoosi ʻi he toafa, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua te nau tūkia?”

14 As the cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of Jehovah caused them to rest. So thou led thy people to make thyself a glorious name.

‌ʻO hangē ko e ʻalu hifo ʻae fanga manu ki he vahaʻa moʻunga, naʻe ngaohi ia ʻe he Laumālie ʻo Sihova ke mālōlō: naʻe pehē hoʻo tataki ʻa hoʻo kakai, ke ngaohi moʻou ha huafa ongoongolelei.

15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory. Where are thy zeal and thy mighty acts? The yearning of thy heart and thy compassions are restrained toward me.

‌ʻAfio hifo mei he langi, pea vakai mei he ʻafioʻanga ʻo hoʻo māʻoniʻoni pea mo ho nāunau: kofaʻā ia hoʻo ʻofa mo hoʻo māfimafi, ʻae ngaue ʻo hoʻo manavaʻofa pea mo hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa kiate au? Kuo ke taʻofi ia?

16 For thou are our Father, though Abraham knows us not, and Israel does not acknowledge us, thou, O Jehovah, are our Father, our Redeemer, from everlasting is thy name.

Ko e moʻoni ko ʻemau tamai koe, neongo ʻoku taʻeʻilo ʻakimautolu ʻe ʻEpalahame, pea taʻetokangaʻi ʻakimautolu ʻe ʻIsileli: ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ko ʻemau tamai, ko homau huhuʻi; talu mei muʻa ʻoku taʻetupu ʻa ho huafa.

17 O Jehovah, why do thou make us to err from thy ways, and harden our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.

‌ʻE Sihova, ko e hā kuo ke tuku ai ʻakimautolu ke mau hē mei ho ngaahi hala, pea fakafefeka homau loto ke ʻoua te mau manavahē kiate koe? Toe tafoki mai koeʻuhi ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ko e ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ho tofiʻa.

18 Thy holy people possessed it but a little while. Our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.

Kuo maʻu fuonounou pe ia ʻe he kakai ʻa hoʻo māʻoniʻoni: kuo molomoloki ʻe homau ngaahi fili ʻa ho fale tapu.

19 We have become as those over whom thou never bore rule, as those who were not called by thy name.

‌ʻOku ʻaʻau ʻakimautolu: naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke puleʻi ʻakinautolu; naʻe ʻikai ui ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻa ho huafa.
