Isaiah 38
1 About that time was Hezekiah sicke vnto the death, and the Prophet Isaiah sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and sayd vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Put thine house in an order, for thou shalt dye, and not liue.
ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe mahaki ʻa Hesekaia ʻo meimei mate. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻIsaia ko e palōfita ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Teuteu ho fale: he te ke mate, pea ʻikai moʻui.”
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
Pea naʻe toki tafoki ʻa Hesekaia ʻo hanga hono mata ki he holisi ʻoe fale, pea lotu kia Sihova,
3 And saide, I beseeche thee, Lord, remember nowe howe I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfite heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.
Pea ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke manatu ki he anga ʻo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva ʻi ho ʻao ʻi he moʻoni pea mo e loto haohaoa, pea kuo u fai ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho ʻao.” Pea naʻe tangi mamahi ʻa Hesekaia.
4 Then came the worde of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
Pea toki hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē,
5 Goe, and say vnto Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord God of Dauid thy father, I haue heard thy prayer, and seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.
“ʻAlu, ʻo tala kia Hesekaia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, kuo u fanongo ki hoʻo hū, kuo u mamata ki hoʻo loʻimata: vakai, te u fakalahi ʻaki hoʻo ngaahi ʻaho ʻae taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma nima.
6 And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the King of Asshur, and this citie: for I will defende this citie.
Pea te u fakamoʻui koe mo e kolo ni mei he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia: pea te u maluʻi ʻae kolo ni.
7 And this signe shalt thou haue of ye Lord, that ye Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken,
Pea ko e fakaʻilonga eni kiate koe meia Sihova, ki heʻene fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni ʻaia kuo ne folofola ki ai;
8 Beholde, I will bring againe the shadowe of the degrees (whereby it is gone downe in the diall of Ahaz by the sunne) ten degrees backeward: so the sunne returned by tenne degrees, by the which degrees it was gone downe.
Vakai, te u toe ʻomi ki mui ʻae ʻata ʻoe ngaahi tikeli, ʻaia kuo ʻalu hifo ʻi he meʻa fakaʻilonga laʻā ʻo ʻAhasi, ko e vahe ʻe hongofulu. Pea naʻe foki ki mui ʻae laʻā ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu, ʻae ngaahi vahe ko ia ʻaia kuo ʻalu hifo ai ia.”
9 The writing of Hezekiah King of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sickenesse.
Ko e tohi [eni ]e Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻi he hili ʻa hono mahaki, pea kuo moʻui ia mei hono mahaki;
10 I saide in the cutting off of my dayes, I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres. (Sheol h7585)
Naʻaku pehē ʻi he tuʻusi ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho, “Te u ʻalu hifo ki he matapā ʻoe fonualoto: kuo faʻao ʻiate au hono toe ʻo hoku ngaahi taʻu.” (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, I shall not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shall see man no more among the inhabitants of the world.
Naʻaku pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u mamata kia Sihova, ʻio, ko Sihova, ʻi he fonua ʻoe moʻui: ʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata ki he tangata fakataha mo e kakai ʻo māmani.
12 Mine habitation is departed, and is remoued from me, like a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut me off from the height: from day to night, thou wilt make an ende of me.
Kuo ʻalu hoku ngaahi taʻu, pea kuo ʻave ia ʻiate au ʻo hangē ko e fale fehikitaki ʻoe tauhi sipi: naʻaku tuʻusi ʻeku moʻui ʻo hangē ko e tangata lalanga tupenu: te ne tuʻusi ke motu au ʻi he fakaʻauʻausino: mei he ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki he pō ʻoku ke fakaʻosi au.
13 I rekoned to the morning: but he brake all my bones, like a lion: from day to night wilt thou make an ende of me.
Naʻaku lau ki he pongipongi, koeʻuhi ʻo hangē ko e laione te ne fesiʻi pehē hoku ngaahi hui kotoa pē: mei he ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki he pō ʻoku ke fai ke fakaʻosi au.
14 Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourne as a doue: mine eies were lift vp on high: O Lord, it hath oppressed me, comfort me.
ʻO hangē ko e kaleni pe ko e sualo, naʻe pehē ʻeku lea: ne u tangi ʻo hangē ko e lupe: kuo vaivai hoku mata ʻi he sio ki ʻolunga: ʻE Sihova, kuo u taʻomia; ke ke langomakiʻi au.”
15 What shall I say? for he hath said it to me, and he hath done it: I shall walke weakely all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.
Ko e hā te u lea aki? Kuo talaʻofa ia kiate au, pea kuo ne fai ki ai: te u ʻalu ʻi he angavaivai ʻi hoku ngaahi taʻu kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e mamahi ʻa hoku laumālie.
16 O Lord, to them that ouerliue them, and to all that are in them, the life of my spirite shalbe knowen, that thou causedst me to sleepe and hast giuen life to me.
ʻE Sihova, ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni ʻoku moʻui ai ʻae tangata, pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ʻoku ai ʻae moʻui ʻa hoku laumālie: kuo pehē hoʻo fakamoʻui au, pea ngaohi au ke u moʻui.
17 Beholde, for felicitie I had bitter griefe, but it was thy pleasure to deliuer my soule from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
Vakai, ne u maʻu ʻae mamahi lahi ko e fetongi ʻoe fiemālie: ka ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ki hoku laumālie kuo ke fakamoʻui ia mei he luo ʻoe fakaʻauha: he kuo ke lī ʻeku ngaahi hia kotoa pē ki ho tuʻa.
18 For the graue cannot confesse thee: death cannot praise thee: they that goe downe into the pit, cannot hope for thy trueth. (Sheol h7585)
He ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakamālō kiate koe ʻae faʻitoka, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakaongoongoleleiʻi koe ʻe he mate: ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he luo ʻoku ʻikai te nau faʻa ʻamanaki ki he moʻoni. (Sheol h7585)
19 But the liuing, the liuing, he shall confesse thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall declare thy trueth.
Ko e kakai moʻui, ko e kakai moʻui, ko ia ʻe fakamālō kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku ou fai ʻi he ʻaho ni: ʻe fakahā hoʻo moʻoni ʻe he tamai ki he fānau.
20 The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my song, all the dayes of our life in the House of the Lord.
Naʻe tatali ʻe Sihova ke fakamoʻui au: ko ia te mau hiva ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi hiva ʻi he meʻa faiva ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻemau moʻui ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
21 Then said Isaiah, Take a lumpe of drye figs and lay it vpon the boyle, and he shall recouer.
He naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIsaia, “Tuku ke nau toʻo ʻae ngaahi fiki, pea ʻai ia ko e pulusi ki he hala, pea te ne moʻui.”
22 Also Hezekiah had said, What is ye signe, that I shall goe vp into the House of the Lord?
Pea ne pehē foki ʻe Hesekaia, “Ko e hā ʻae fakaʻilonga te u ʻalu hake ai ki he fale ʻo Sihova?”
