< Isaiah 63 >

1 Who is this that commeth from Edom, with red garments from Bozrah? hee is glorious in his apparel and walketh in his great strength: I speake in righteousnesse, and am mightie to saue.
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 Wherefore is thine apparel red, and thy garments like him that treadeth in ye wine presse?
Ko e hā ʻoku kulokula ai ho ngaahi kofu, pea tatau ho ngaahi kofu mo ia ʻoku molomoloki ʻi he tataʻoʻanga uaine?
3 I haue troden the wine presse alone, and of all people there was none with mee: for I will treade them in mine anger, and tread them vnder foote in my wrath, and their blood shalbe sprinkled vpon my garments, and I will staine 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 is in mine heart, and the yeere of my redeemed is 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 helpe, and I wondered that there was none to vpholde: therefore mine owne arme helped me, and my wrath it selfe sustained 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 Therefore I wil tread downe the people in my wrath, and make them drunken in mine indignation, and wil bring downe their strength to 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 wil remember the mercies of the Lord and the prayses of the Lord according vnto all that the Lord hath giuen vs, and for the great goodnesse toward the house of Israel, which hee hath giuen them according to his tender loue, and according to his great mercies.
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 saide, Surely they are my people, children that wil not lie: so he was their Sauiour.
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 troubles he was troubled, and the Angel of his presence saued them: in his loue and in his mercie he redeemed them, and he bare them and caried them alwayes continually.
‌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 vexed his holy Spirit: therefore was hee turned to be their enemie and he 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 remembred the olde time of Moses and his people, saying, Where is hee that brought them vp out of the Sea with the shepheard of his sheepe? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?
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 He led them by the right hand of Moses with his owne glorious arme, deuiding the water before them, to make himselfe an euerlasting 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 Hee led them through the deepe, as an horse in the wildernesse, that they should not stumble,
‌ʻAia naʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he moana, ʻo hangē ko e hoosi ʻi he toafa, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua te nau tūkia?”
14 As the beast goeth downe into the valley, the Spirite of the Lord gaue them rest: so diddest thou leade thy people, to make thy selfe 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 Looke downe from heauen, and beholde from the dwelling place of thine holines, and of thy glory. Where is thy zeale and thy strength, the multitude of thy mercies, and of thy compassions? they are restrained from 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 Doutles thou art our Father: though Abraham be ignorant of vs, and Israel knowe vs not, yet thou, O Lord, art our Father, and our redeemer: thy Name is for euer.
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 Lord, why hast thou made vs to erre from thy wayes? and hardened our heart from thy feare? Returne for thy seruants sake, and for 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 The people of thine holinesse haue possessed it, but a litle while: for our aduersaries haue troden downe thy Sanctuarie.
Kuo maʻu fuonounou pe ia ʻe he kakai ʻa hoʻo māʻoniʻoni: kuo molomoloki ʻe homau ngaahi fili ʻa ho fale tapu.
19 We haue bene as they, ouer whome thou neuer barest rule, and vpon whom thy Name was not called.
‌ʻOku ʻaʻau ʻakimautolu: naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke puleʻi ʻakinautolu; naʻe ʻikai ui ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻa ho huafa.
