Jeremiah 27

1 In the beginning of the reigne of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah came this worde vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,

‌ʻI he kamataʻanga ʻoe pule ʻa Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe haʻu ʻae folofola ni meia Sihova kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē,

2 Thus saith the Lord to me, Make thee bonds, and yokes, and put them vpon thy necke,

“ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova kiate au; Ke ke ngaohi ʻae ngaahi haʻi mo e ngaahi haʻamo, ʻo ʻai ia ki ho kia,

3 And send them to the King of Edom, and to the King of Moab, and to the King of the Ammonites, and to the King of Tyrus, and to the king of Zidon, by the hande of the messengers which come to Ierusale vnto Zedekiah ye king of Iudah,

pea fekau ke ʻave ia ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Moape, pea mo e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoni, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Taia, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Saitone, ʻi he nima ʻoe kau talafekau ʻaia ʻoku haʻu ki Selūsalema, kia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta;

4 And commande them to saye vnto their masters, Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Thus shall ye say vnto your masters,

pea fekau ʻakinautolu ke lea ki honau houʻeiki,” ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Ke mou lea pehē ki homou houʻeiki;

5 I haue made the earth, the man, and the beast that are vpon the groud, by my great power, and by my outstreched arme, and haue giuen it vnto whom it pleased me.

Kuo u ngaohi ʻa māmani, mo e tangata, pea mo e manu ʻoku ʻi ho funga fonua, ʻaki ʻeku mālohi lahi, mo hoku nima mafao, pea kuo u foaki ia kiate kinautolu ʻoku ou loto ki ai.

6 But nowe I haue giuen all these landes into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and the beastes of the fielde haue I also giuen him to serue him.

Pea ko eni kuo u foaki ʻae ngaahi fonua ni kotoa pē ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pea mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe ngoue kuo u foaki foki kiate ia ke tauhi ʻaki ia.

7 And all nations shall serue him, and his sonne, and his sonnes sonne vntill the very time of his lande come also: then many nations and great Kinges shall serue themselues of him.

Pea ʻe tauhi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ki hono foha, pea mo e foha ʻo hono foha, ʻo aʻu ki he hoko mai ʻae ʻaho ʻo hono fonua: pea ʻe toki pule kiate ia ʻe he kakai tokolahi, mo e ngaahi tuʻi lahi ke ne tauhi ʻakinautolu.

8 And the nation and kingdome which will not serue the same Nebuchad-nezzar king of Babel, and that will not put their necke vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, the same nation will I visite, saith the Lord, with the sworde, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, vntill I haue wholy giuen them into his hands.

“Pea ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, ko e kakai mo e puleʻanga ʻaia ʻe ʻikai fie tauhi kia Nepukanesa ko ia, ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe ʻikai fie ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki honau kia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, te u tautea ʻaki ʻae kakai ko ia ʻae heletā mo e honge, mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, kaeʻoua ke fakaʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono nima.

9 Therefore heare not your prophets nor your southsayers, nor your dreamers, nor your inchanters, nor your sorcerers, which say vnto you thus, Ye shall not serue the King of Babel.

Ko ia ʻoua naʻa mou fanongo ki hoʻomou kau palōfita, pe ki hoʻomou kau kikite, pe ki hoʻomou kau misi, pe ki hoʻomou kau sio ki langi, pe ki hoʻomou kau fiemana, ʻakinautolu ʻoku lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone.

10 For they prophecie a lie vnto you to cause you to goe farre from your lande, and that I should cast you out, and you should perish.

He ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻave mamaʻo ʻakimoutolu mei homou fonua; koeʻuhi te u kapusi ʻakimoutolu, pea te mou ʻauha.

11 But the nation that put their neckes vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, and serue him, those wil I let remaine stil in their owne land, saith the Lord, and they shall occupie it, and dwel therein.

Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia ʻe ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki honau kia, pea tauhi ia, te u tuku ke nofo ʻakinautolu ʻi honau fonua, pea te nau ngoueʻi ia, pea nofo ai.”

12 I spake also to Zedekiah king of Iudah according to all these wordes, saying, Put your neckes vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, and serue him and his people, that ye may liue.

Pea naʻaku lea foki kia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Mou ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki homou kia, pea tauhi ia mo hono kakai, ke mou moʻui.

13 Why will ye dye, thou, and thy people by the sworde, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the Lord hath spoken against the nation, that will not serue the King of Babel?

Ko e hā ʻoku mou fie mate ai, ko koe mo hoʻo kakai, ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova ki he kakai ʻoku ʻikai fie tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone?

14 Therefore heare not the words of the prophets, that speake vnto you, saying, Ye shall not serue the King of Babel: for they prophecie a lie vnto you.

Ko ia ʻoua naʻa fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻae kau palōfita ʻoku lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone: he ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu.

15 For I haue not sent them, saith the Lord, yet they prophecie a lie in my name, that I might cast you out, and that ye might perish, both you, and the prophets that prophecie vnto you.

He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, naʻe ʻikai te u fekau ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku nau kikite loi ʻi hoku huafa; koeʻuhi ke u kapusi ʻakimoutolu, pea te mou ʻauha, ko kimoutolu pea mo e kau palōfita ʻoku kikite kiate kimoutolu.”

16 Also I spake to the Priests, and to all this people, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Heare not the wordes of your prophets that prophecie vnto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the house of the Lord shall nowe shortly be brought againe from Babel, for they prophecie a lie vnto you.

Naʻaku lea foki ki he kau taulaʻeiki pea ki he kakai ni kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova; ʻoua naʻa fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻae kau palōfita ʻoku kikite kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻe toe ʻomi vave mei Papilone ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova: he ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu.

17 Heare them not, but serue the King of Babel, that ye may liue: wherefore shoulde this citie be desolate?

‌ʻOua naʻa fanongo kiate kinautolu; mou tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ke mou moʻui: ʻe fakalala ʻae kolo ni ko e hā?

18 But if they be Prophets, and if the word of the Lord be with them, let them intreate the Lord of hostes, that the vessels, which are left in the House of the Lord, and in the house of the King of Iudah, and at Ierusalem, go not to Babel.

Pea kapau ko e kau palōfita ʻakinautolu, pea kapau ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, tuku ke nau fai ni ʻae hūfia kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ipu ʻaia naʻe toe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ʻi Selūsalema, ke ʻoua naʻa fetuku ia ki Papilone.”

19 For thus saith the Lord of hostes, concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remaine in this citie,

He ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Ko e meʻa ki he ngaahi pou, pea mo e fuʻu ʻaiʻanga vai, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻunga, pea ki he ngaahi ipu ʻoku toe ʻi he kolo ni,

20 Which Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel tooke not, when he caryed away captiue Ieconiah the sonne of Iehoiakim King of Iudah from Ierusalem to Babel, with all the nobles of Iudah and Ierusalem.

‌ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻave ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻi heʻene fetuku fakapōpula ʻa Sekonia ko e foha ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta mei Selūsalema ki Papilone, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema;

21 For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remaine in the House of the Lord, and in the house of the King of Iudah, and at Ierusalem,

Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi ipu ʻoku toe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema;

22 They shall be brought to Babel, and there they shalbe vntil the day that I visite them, saith the Lord: then will I bring them vp, and restore them vnto this place.

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻe fetuku ia ki Papilone, pea ʻe tuku ia ki ai, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ʻaia te u ʻaʻahi ai ʻakinautolu; pea te u toki ʻomi ia mei ai, pea toe tuku ia ki he kolo ni.”
