Ezekiel 11

1 Moreover, the Spirite lift me vp, and brought me vnto the East gate of the Lordes house, which lyeth Eastwarde, and beholde, at the entrie of the gate were fiue and twentie men: among whome I sawe Iaazaniah the sonne of Azur, and Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah, the princes of the people.

Ko eni foki naʻe hiki hake au ʻe he laumālie ʻo ne ʻomi au ki he matapā fakahahake ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki he feituʻu hahake: pea vakai, naʻe ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko uofulu ma toko nima; pea naʻaku mamata ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa Sesania ko e foha ʻo ʻAsuli mo Peletaia ko e foha ʻo Penaia ko e houʻeiki ʻoe kakai.

2 Then said he vnto me, Sonne of man, these are the men that imagine mischiefe, and deuise wicked counsell in this citie.

Pea ne toki pehē kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, ko e kau tangata ʻena ʻoku fakatupu ʻae kovi, ʻonau fakakaukau kovi ʻi he kolo ni:

3 For they say, It is not neere, let vs builde houses: this citie is the caldron, and wee be the flesh.

‌ʻO nau pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ofi ha meʻa ka tau langa fale ʻakitautolu: ko e kulo ʻae kolo ni ka ko e kakano ʻakitautolu.

4 Therefore prophesie against them, sonne of man, prophesie.

“Ko ia ke ke kikite kiate kinautolu, kikite, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata.”

5 And the Spirite of the Lord fell vpon me, and said vnto me, Speake, Thus saith the Lord, O ye house of Israel, this haue ye said, and I know that which riseth vp of your mindes.

Pea naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova ʻo ne pehē kiate au, “Lea, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; Ko eni, kuo mou lea pehē ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli: he ʻoku ou ʻilo kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku hū mai ki homou loto.

6 Many haue ye murthered in this citie, and ye haue filled the streets thereof with the slaine.

Kuo mou fakatokolahi hoʻomou mate tāmateʻi ʻi he kolo ni pea kuo mou fakafonu ʻaki ʻae mate tāmateʻi ʻa hono ngaahi hala.

7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, They that ye haue slaine, and haue layed in the middes of it, they are the flesh, and this citie is the caldron, but I wil bring you foorth of the mids of it.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko hoʻomou mate ʻaia kuo mou fokotuʻu ʻi loto ʻi ai, ko e kakano ʻakinautolu, pea ko e kolo ni ko e kulo ia: ka te u ʻomi kituʻa ʻakimoutolu mei ai.

8 Ye haue feared the sworde, and I wil bring a sworde vpon you, saith the Lord God.

Kuo mou manavahē ki he heletā; pea te u ʻomi ʻae heletā kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.

9 And I will bring you out of the middes thereof, and deliuer you into the hands of strangers, and will execute iudgements among you.

Pea te u ʻomi kituʻa ʻakimoutolu mei he lotolotonga ʻo ia, mo tukuange ʻakimoutolu ki he nima ʻoe kau muli, pea te u fai ʻae fakamalaʻia kiate kimoutolu.

10 Ye shall fall by the sworde, and I wil iudge you in the border of Israel, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord.

Pea ʻe tulaki hifo ʻakimoutolu ʻi he heletā; te u fakamaau ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli; pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.

11 This citie shall not be your caldron, neyther shall ye be the flesh in the middes thereof, but I will iudge you in the border of Israel.

‌ʻE ʻikai hoko eni ko hoʻomou kulo, pea ʻe ʻikai hoko ʻakimoutolu ko e kakano ʻi loto ʻi ai; ka te u fakamaau ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli:

12 And ye shall knowe that I am the Lord: for ye haue not walked in my statutes, neither executed my iudgements, but haue done after the maners of the heathen, that are round about you.

Pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au: he kuo ʻikai te mou ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku fekau, pe fai ki heʻeku fakamaau, ka kuo mou fai ki he anga ʻae hiteni ʻoku nofo tākai ʻiate kimoutolu.”

13 And when I prophesied, Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah dyed: then fell I downe vpon my face, and cryed with a loude voyce, and saide, Ah Lord God, wilt thou then vtterly destroy all the remnant of Israel?

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻeku kikite, naʻe mate ʻa Peletaia ko e foha ʻo Penaia. Pea naʻaku tō hifo ai ki hoku mata ʻo tangi ʻi he leʻo lahi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOiauē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua! Te ke fakaʻosi ke ʻosi ʻaupito ʻae toenga ʻo ʻIsileli?”

14 Againe the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

15 Sonne of man, thy brethren, euen thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, wholy are they vnto whome the inhabitants of Ierusalem haue said, Depart ye farre from the Lord: for the lande is giuen vs in possession.

“Foha ʻoe tangata, ko ho kāinga, ʻio, ho kāinga ʻoʻou, ʻae kau tangata ʻo ho faʻahinga, pea mo e fale kātoa kotoa ʻa ʻIsileli, ko kinautolu ia kuo pehē ki ai ʻae kakai ʻo Selūsalema, ‘ʻAlu ke mamaʻo ʻakimoutolu meia Sihova: he ko kimoutolu kuo foaki ki ai ʻae fonua ni ko e tofiʻa.’

16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, Although I haue cast them farre off among the heathen, and although I haue scattered them among the countreis, yet wil I be to them as a litle Sanctuarie in ye countreis where they shall come.

Ko ia ke ke lea, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; neongo ʻeku liʻaki ke mamaʻo ʻakinautolu ki he hiteni, pea neongo ʻeku fakahē ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua, ka te u hangē ko e siʻi hūfanga kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fonua ʻaia te nau hoko ki ai.

17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, I will gather you againe from the people, and assemble you out of the countreis where ye haue bene scattered, and I will giue you ye land of Israel.

Ko ia ke ke pehē, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Te u tānaki moʻoni ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai pea fakataha mai kimoutolu mei he ngaahi fonua ʻaia kuo fakahēʻi ʻakimoutolu ki ai, pea te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ʻo ʻIsileli.

18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the idoles thereof, and all the abominations thereof from thence.

Pea te nau hoko mai ki heni, pea te nau fetuku mei heni ʻa hono ngaahi meʻa kovi mo hono ngaahi fakalielia.

19 And I will giue them one heart, and I will put a newe spirit within their bowels: and I will take the stonie heart out of their bodies, and will giue them an heart of flesh,

Pea te u foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto pe taha, pea te u ʻai ha laumālie foʻou kiate kimoutolu; pea te u toʻo atu ʻae loto maka mei honau kakano, pea te u foaki ʻae loto kakanoʻia kiate kinautolu:

20 That they may walke in my statutes, and keepe my iudgements, and execute them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

Koeʻuhi ke nau faʻa ʻeveʻeva ai ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea tauhi ʻa ʻeku tuʻutuʻuni mo fai ki ai: pea ʻe hoko ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu, pea ko honau ʻOtua au.

21 But vpon them, whose heart is towarde their idoles, and whose affection goeth after their abominations, I will lay their way vpon their owne heades, saith the Lord God.

Ka koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku muimui honau loto ki he loto ʻo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakaliliʻa mo ʻenau fakalielia, te u totongi ʻenau anga ki honau tumuʻaki, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”

22 Then did the Cherubims lift vp their wings, and the wheeles besides them, and the glorie of the God of Israel was vpon them on hie.

Pea hili ia naʻe hiki ki ʻolunga ʻe he selupimi ʻa honau kapakau pea mo e ngaahi teka naʻe ofi ai; pea naʻe feangai hifo mei ʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻae nāunau ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.

23 And the glorie of the Lord went vp from the middes of the citie, and stoode vpon the moutaine which is towarde the East side of the citie.

Pea naʻe mahuʻi ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova mei he loto kolo, pea tuʻu mei he moʻunga ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu hahake ʻoe kolo.

24 Afterwarde the Spirite tooke me vp, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Caldea to them that were led away captiues: so the vision that I had seene, went vp from me.

Pea hili ia naʻe toʻo hake au ʻe he laumālie, pea ʻomi au ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa hā mai ki Kalitia kiate kinautolu ʻoe pōpula. Pea naʻe pehē ʻae mahuʻi ʻiate au ʻae meʻa hā mai ʻaia naʻaku mamata ki ai.

25 Then I declared vnto them that were led away captiues, all the things that the Lord had shewed me.

Pea naʻaku toki fakamatala kiate kinautolu ʻoe pōpula ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova kiate au.
