Jezekiel 4

1 And you, son of man, take you a brick, and you shall set it before your face, and shall portray on it the city, [even] Jerusalem.

Ko koe foki, “Foha ʻoe tangata, toʻo kiate koe ha makaʻumea, pea tuku ia ʻi ho ʻao, pea tohi ki ai ha fakatātā ki he kolo ko Selūsalema:

2 And you shall besiege it, and build works against it, and throw up a mound round about it, and pitch camps against it, and set up engines round about.

Pea ke kāpui ʻaki ia ʻae tau, pea langa ha kolo ki ai, pea tanu puke ki ai, tuku foki ki ai ʻae nofoʻanga ʻoe tau, pea fokotuʻu takatakai ʻi ai ʻae meʻa teke ʻā.

3 And take you to yourself an iron pan, and you shall set it [for] an iron wall between you and the city: and you shall set your face against it, and it shall be in a siege, and you shall besiege it. This is a sign to the children of Israel.

Pea ke toʻo foki kiate koe ʻae ukamea lafalafa, pea fokotuʻu ia ko e ʻā ukamea ʻi homo vahaʻa mo e kolo: pea ke fakahanga ho mata ki ai, pea ʻe takatakai ia, pea ko koe te ke tauʻi ia. ʻE hoko eni ko e fakaʻilonga ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli.

4 And you shall lie upon your left side, and lay the iniquities of the house of Israel upon it, according to the number of the hundred and fifty days [during] which you shall lie upon it: and you shall bear their iniquities.

Ke ke tokoto foki ki ho potu fakatoʻohema pea hili ki ai ʻae hia ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli! Pea ʻe tatau mo e lau ʻoe ʻaho ʻo hoʻo tokoto ki ai ʻa hoʻo fua ʻenau hia.

5 For I have appointed you their iniquities for a number of days, for a hundred and ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquities of the house of Israel.

He kuo u hili kiate koe ʻae ngaahi taʻu ʻo ʻenau hia ʻo fakatatau ki hono lahi ʻoe ʻaho, ko e ʻaho ʻe tolungeau ma hivangofulu: ko ia te ke fua ʻae hia ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli.

6 And you shall accomplish this, and [then] shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquities of the house of Juda forty days: I have appointed you a day for a year.

Pea ka ʻosi hoʻo fai ia, ke ke toe tokoto ki ho potu fakatoʻomataʻu, pea te ke fua ʻae hia ʻae fale ʻo Siuta ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu: pea kuo u tuʻutuʻuni ko e ʻaho ʻe taha ko e taʻu ia ʻe taha.

7 So you shall set your face to the siege of Jerusalem, and shall strengthen your arm, and shall prophesy against it.

Ko ia te ke fakahanga ho mata ki he tauʻi ʻo Selūsalema, pea ʻe fakatelefua ho nima, pea te ke kikite ki ai.

8 And, behold, I have prepared bonds for you, land you may not turn from your one side to the other, until the days of your siege shall be accomplished.

Pea vakai, te u ʻai ʻae haʻi kiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke fetafokiʻaki, kaeʻoua ke ke fakaʻosi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ho taʻu.

9 Take you also to you wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and bread-corn; and you shall cast them into one earthen vessel, and shall make them into loaves for yourself; and you shall eat them a hundred and ninety days, according to the number of the days [during] which you sleep on your side.

“Toʻo foki kiate koe ʻae sito mo e paʻale, mo e piini, mo e leniteli, mo e mileti, pea mo e fitisi, pea ai fakataha ia ki he ipu, mo ke ngaohi mā mei ai, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia te ke tokoto fakatafa ai, te ke kai ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolungeau ma hivangofulu.

10 And you shall eat your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shall you eat them.

Pea te ke kai fakatautau pe hoʻo meʻakai, ko e mamafa ʻoe sikeli ʻe uofulu ki he ʻaho ʻe taha: pea te ke kai vahevahe pe ia.

11 And you shall drink water by measure, even from time to time you shall drink the sixth part of a hin.

‌ʻE fua foki hoʻo vai ki he inu, ko e vahe ono ʻoe hini ʻe taha: pea te ke inu vahevahe pe ia.

12 And you shall eat them [as] a barley cake: you shall bake them before their eyes in man's dung.

Pea te ke kai ia ʻo hangē ko ha foʻi mā paʻale, pea te ke taʻo ʻaki ia ʻae meʻa kovi ʻae tangata, ʻi honau ʻao.”

13 And you shall say, Thus says the Lord God of Israel; Thus shall the children of Israel eat unclean things amongst the Gentiles.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE pehē ʻae kai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻenau mā fakalielia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi Senitaile, ʻaia te u kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai.”

14 Then I said, Not so, Lord God of Israel: surely my soul has not been defiled with uncleanness; nor have I eaten, that which died of itself or was torn of beasts from my birth until now; neither has any corrupt flesh entered into my mouth.

Pea naʻaku toki pehē ai, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, vakai kuo teʻeki ai fakaʻuliʻi hoku laumālie; he kuo talu ʻeku kei siʻi ʻo aʻu ki heni ʻoku teʻeki te u kai ʻi ha meʻa ʻoku mate mahaki, pe ha meʻa kuo haehae; pea ʻoku teʻeki ai hoko ki hoku ngutu ha meʻakai fakalielia.”

15 And he said to me, Behold, I have given you dung of oxen instead of man's dung, and you shall prepare your loaves upon it.

Pea naʻe toki pehē mai ʻe ia kiate au, “Vakai, ʻe tuku ʻae meʻa kovi ʻae tangata ka te ke teuteu ʻaki hoʻo mā ʻae teʻe pulu.”

16 And he said to me, Son of man, behold, I break the support of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight and in lack; and shall drink water by measure, and in a state of ruin:

Pea naʻa ne pehē foki kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, vakai te u maumauʻi ʻae tokotoko ʻoe mā ʻi Selūsalema; pea te nau kai mā fakatautau pe, pea ʻi he mamahi: pea te nau inu ʻi he vai kuo fuofua, ʻi he lilika:

17 that they may lack bread and water; and a man and his brother shall be brought to ruin, and they shall pine away in their iniquities.

Koeʻuhi te nau masiva ʻi he mā mo e vai pea te nau fesiofaki ʻi he manavahē, ʻonau fakaʻaʻau ki mui ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau angahala.”
