Ezekiel 12
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Naʻe hoko foki kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
2 “Son of man, you are living in a rebellious house. They have eyes to see but do not see, and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious house.
“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoku ke nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fale angatuʻu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mata ke sio ka ʻoku ʻikai mamata; ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae telinga ke fanongo, ka ʻoku ʻikai ongoʻi; he ko e fale angatuʻu ʻakinautolu.
3 Therefore, son of man, pack your bags for exile. In broad daylight, set out from your place and go to another as they watch. Perhaps they will understand, though they are a rebellious house.
Ko ia, ʻa koe foha ʻoe tangata, teuteu ke fetuku hoʻo ngaahi meʻa, pea fetuku ʻaho pe ʻi honau ʻao; pea te ke fetuku mei hoʻo potu ki ha potu kehe ʻi honau ʻao: heiʻilo te nau fakakaukau, neongo ko e fale angatuʻu ʻakinautolu.
4 Bring out your baggage for exile by day, as they watch. Then in the evening, as they watch, go out like those who go into exile.
Te ke toki ʻomi ʻe koe ʻa hoʻo ngaahi meʻa kei ʻaho ʻi honau ʻao, ko e meʻa ke fetuku: pea ka poʻuli te ke ʻalu atu ʻi honau ʻao ʻo hangē koe ʻalu atu ha taha pōpula.
5 As they watch, dig through the wall and carry your belongings out through it.
Keli ʻe koe ke ava ʻae ʻā ʻi honau ʻao, pea ke fetuku atu mei ai.
6 And as they watch, lift your bags to your shoulder and take them out at dusk; cover your face so that you cannot see the land. For I have made you a sign to the house of Israel.”
Te ke fua ia ʻi honau ʻao ki ho uma, pea ke fetuku atu ia ʻi he uulikelekele: te ke pūlou ho mata ke ʻoua naʻa ke sio ki he kelekele: he kuo u tuku koe ko e fakaʻilonga ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli.”
7 So I did as I was commanded. I brought out my bags for exile by day, and in the evening I dug through the wall by hand. I took my belongings out at dusk, carrying them on my shoulder as they watched.
Pea naʻaku fai ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau mai: naʻaku ʻomi kituʻa ʻeku meʻa kei ʻaho, ʻo hangē ha meʻa ki he pōpula, pea ʻi he efiafi naʻaku keli ʻae ʻā ʻo fakaava ʻaki ʻa hoku nima; pea naʻaku fetuku kituaʻā ʻi heʻene kei ʻataʻatā, pea naʻaku fua meʻa ʻi hoku uma ʻi honau ʻao.
8 And in the morning the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Pea pongipongi hake naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
9 “Son of man, hasn’t the rebellious house of Israel asked you, ‘What are you doing?’
“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻikai kuo pehē kiate koe ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻae fale angatuʻu, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku ke fai?’
10 Tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are there.’
Lea koe kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: ʻOku kau ʻae fua kavenga ni ki he tuʻi ʻi Selūsalema mo e fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu.’
11 You are to say, ‘I am a sign to you.’ Just as it happened here, so will it be done to them; they will go into exile as captives.
Ke ke pehē, ‘Ko homou fakaʻilonga au: hangē ko ia kuo u fai, ʻe pehē hono fai kiate kinautolu: ʻe fetukutuku mo ʻave ʻakinautolu ki he fakapōpula.
12 And at dusk the prince among them will lift his bags to his shoulder and go out. They will dig through the wall to bring him out. He will cover his face so he cannot see the land.
Pea ko ia ʻoku tuʻi ʻiate kinautolu ʻe fua kavenga ia ʻi hono uma ʻi he efiafi poʻuli, pea ʻe ʻalu atu: te nau keli ʻae ʻā ke ava mo fetuku atu ia: ʻe fakapulou ʻe ia hono mata ke ʻoua naʻa sio hono mata ki he kelekele.
13 But I will spread My net over him, and he will be caught in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will not see it, and there he will die.
Te u ʻaʻau foki ʻeau ʻa hoku kupenga kiate ia, pea ʻe moʻua ia ʻi heʻeku tauhele: pea te u ʻomi ia ki Papilone ki he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia; ka ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki ai, neongo ʻe mate ia ʻi ai.
14 And I will scatter to every wind all the attendants around him and all his troops, and I will draw a sword to chase after them.
Pea te u vilingia ki he feituʻu matangi kotoa pē ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻiate ia ko hono tokoni, mo ʻene ngaahi kongakau kotoa pē pea te u toʻo ʻae heletā kiate kinautolu.
15 And they will know that I am the LORD, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them throughout the countries.
Pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea fakamovete ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua.
16 But I will spare a few of them from sword and famine and plague, so that in the nations to which they go, they can recount all their abominations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
Ka te u tuku honau kau tangata niʻihi ke hao mei he heletā mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha; koeʻuhi ke nau fakahā ʻenau ngaahi fakalielia ʻi he kau hiteni ʻaia te nau hoko ki ai; pea tenau ʻilo ko Sihova au.
17 Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
18 “Son of man, eat your bread with trembling, and drink your water with quivering and anxiety.
“Foha ʻoe tangata, kai hoʻo mā ʻi he manavahē, pea inu hoʻo vai ʻi he tetetete pea mo e vakavakai.
19 Then tell the people of the land that this is what the Lord GOD says about those living in Jerusalem and in the land of Israel: ‘They will eat their bread with anxiety and drink their water in dread, for their land will be stripped of everything in it because of the violence of all who dwell in it.
Pea ke lea ki he kakai ʻoe fonua, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema pea mo e fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; te nau kai fakatuhotuha ʻenau mā, pea inu ilifia pe ʻenau vai, koeʻuhi ko e ʻauha ʻae mahu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ko e meʻa ʻi he fakamālohi ʻanautolu ʻoku nofo ai.
20 The inhabited cities will be laid waste, and the land will become desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
Pea ʻe fakalala ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻoku kakai pea ʻe ʻauha ʻae fonua; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
21 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Pea naʻe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
22 “Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel: ‘The days go by, and every vision fails’?
“Foha ʻoe tangata, ko e hā ʻae lea fakatātā ko ia ʻoku mou maʻu ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku pehē, ‘ʻOku fakatolonga ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, pea ʻoku ʻikai siʻi ha meʻa hā mai ʻe fakamoʻoni?’
23 Therefore tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will put an end to this proverb, and in Israel they will no longer recite it.’ But say to them: ‘The days are at hand when every vision will be fulfilled.
Ko ia te ke tala kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: te u fakangata ʻae lea fakatātā ko ia, pea ʻe ʻikai toe lea fakatātā ʻaki ia ʻi ʻIsileli; ka ke pehē ʻe koe kiate kinautolu, Kuo ofi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho mo e fakamoʻoni ʻoe meʻa hā mai kotoa pē.
24 For there will be no more false visions or flattering divinations within the house of Israel,
He koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai kei ʻi ai ha meʻa hā mai ko e vaʻinga, pe ha fai kikite ko e lapu, ʻi he fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli.
25 because I, the LORD, will speak whatever word I speak, and it will be fulfilled without delay. For in your days, O rebellious house, I will speak a message and bring it to pass, declares the Lord GOD.’”
He ko Sihova au: Te u lea, pea ko e lea te u lea ʻaki ʻe hoko mo fai; ʻe ʻikai toe fakatuai: he ko e lolotonga ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi ʻaho, ʻe fale angatuʻu, te u lea ʻaki ʻae lea, pea fai mo hono fakamoʻoni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
26 Furthermore, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Pea naʻe toe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
27 “Son of man, take note that the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees is for many years from now; he prophesies about the distant future.’
“Foha ʻoe tangata, vakai ʻoku lea ʻakinautolu ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Ko e meʻa hā mai ʻoku ne mamata ai ko e meʻa ki he ngaahi ʻaho kei tuai, pea ʻoku ne kikite ki he ngaahi kuonga ʻoku kei mamaʻo.
28 Therefore tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘None of My words will be delayed any longer. The message I speak will be fulfilled, declares the Lord GOD.’”
Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻE ʻikai toe fakatuotuai haʻaku lea ʻe taha, ka ko e lea ʻaia kuo u lea ʻaki ʻe fai, ʻoku pehē ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
