Isaiah 45
1 Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ki heʻene pani, kia Kolesi, ʻaia kuo u puke ki hono nima toʻomataʻu, ke fakavaivai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻi hono ʻao; pea te u vete ʻae noʻotanga vala ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi, ke fakaava ʻi hono ʻao ʻae ngaahi matapā louua pea ʻe ʻikai tāpuni ʻae ngaahi matapā;
2 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:
“Te u muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe, pea ngaohi ʻae ngaahi potu pikopiko ke totonu: te u laiki ʻae ngaahi matapā palasa, pea tuʻusi ke motu ʻae ngaahi ukamea fakamaʻu:
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of Israel.
Pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae koloa ʻoe poʻuli, mo e koloa fufū ʻoe ngaahi potu lilo, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻilo ko au, ko Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ui koe ʻaki ho hingoa, ko au ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
4 For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
Koeʻuhi ko Sēkope ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, mo ʻIsileli kuo u fili, kuo u ui ʻaki koe ho hingoa: kuo u fakahingoa koe, ka ʻoku teʻeki te ke ʻilo au.
5 I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Ko au ko Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha, ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻOtua mo au: naʻaku fakakofuʻi koe, ka ʻoku teʻeki te ke ʻilo au:
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none beside me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
Koeʻuhi ke nau ʻilo mei he hopoʻangalaʻā, pea mei he lulunga, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha mo au. Ko au ko Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha.
7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].
Kuo u ngaohi ʻae maama, pea fakatupu mo e poʻuli: ʻoku ou fakahoko ʻae melino, pea fakatupu mo e tau: ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.
8 Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
Mapee hifo, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi langi mei ʻolunga, pea tuku ke lilingi ʻe he ngaahi ʻao ʻae māʻoniʻoni: tuku ke fakamanga ʻae kelekele, pea tuku ke tupu ai ʻae moʻui, pea tuku ke tupu fakataha mo e angatonu; ko au ko Sihova kuo u fakatupu ia.
9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
ʻE malaʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku fekuki mo hono Tupuʻanga! Tuku ke fai ʻe he konga ipu maumau mo e ngaahi konga ipu maumau ʻoe kelekele. ʻE pehē ʻe he ʻumea kiate ia ʻoku ne fakafuofua ia, “Ko e hā kuo ke ngaohi?” Pe ko hoʻo ngāue, “ʻOku ʻikai hano nima?”
10 Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
ʻE malaʻia ia ʻoku pehē ki heʻene tamai, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakatupu?” Pe ki he fefine, “Ko e hā ia kuo ke fanauʻi?”
11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, mo hono Tupuʻanga, “Fehuʻi kiate au ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko ʻoku kau ki hoku ngaahi foha, pea ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻa hoku nima mou fekau mai kiate au.
12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
Kuo u ngaohi ʻa māmani, pea fakatupu mo e tangata ʻi ai: ko au, kuo u folahi ʻe hoku nima ʻae ngaahi langi, pea kuo u fekau ki honau tokolahi kotoa pē.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “kuo u fokotuʻu hake ia ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea te u fakahinohino hono ngaahi hala kotoa pē: te ne langa ʻeku kolo, pea te ne tukuange ʻeku ngaahi pōpula, ka e ʻikai koeʻuhi ko e fakatau, pe ko e totongi.
14 Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, [saying], Surely God [is] in thee; and [there is] none else, [there is] no God.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE haʻu kiate koe ʻae ngāue ʻa ʻIsipite, mo e koloa ʻa ʻItiopea, pea mo e kakai Sipa, ko e kau tangata lalahi, pea ʻe ʻaʻau ʻakinautolu: te nau muimui ʻiate koe; ʻi he ukamea fihifihi te nau aʻu mai, pea te nau tō ki lalo kiate koe, te nau kole kiate koe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua; pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha tokotaha, ʻoku ʻikai mo ha ʻOtua.’”
15 Verily thou [art] a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
Ko e moʻoni ko koe ko e ʻOtua ʻoku ke fufū koe, ʻE ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e Fakamoʻui.”
16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of idols.
Te nau mā, pea puputuʻu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē: ʻe tutuku fakataha ʻi he maveuveu ʻakinautolu ʻoku ngaohi tamapua.
17 [But] Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
Ka e fakamoʻui ʻa ʻIsileli ʻia Sihova ʻaki ʻae moʻui taʻengata: ʻe ʻikai te mou mā pe puputuʻu ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata.
18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi langi; ko e ʻOtua pe ʻaia naʻe fakafuofua ʻa māmani mo fakatupu ia; kuo ne fokotuʻumaʻu ia, naʻe ʻikai te ne ngaohi ke taʻeʻaonga ia, naʻa ne fakafuofua ia ke nofo ai ʻae kakai: “ko au ko Sihova: pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha tokotaha.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
Naʻe ʻikai te u lea ʻi he lilo, ʻi ha potu fakapoʻuli ʻo māmani: naʻe ʻikai te u pehē taʻeʻaonga ki he hako ʻo Sēkope, ‘Kumi kiate au:’ Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou lea ʻaki ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻoku ou fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku totonu.”
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye [that are] escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god [that] cannot save.
“Fakataha ʻakimoutolu pea haʻu; ʻunuʻunu mai ke ofi ʻakimoutolu kuo hao ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga: ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻilo ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻae ʻakau ʻo ʻenau tamapua kuo tongi, pea hū ki he ʻotua ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakamoʻui.
21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
Mou tala, pea ʻomi ke ofi ʻakinautolu, ʻio, tuku ke nau fakakaukau fakataha: ko hai kuo ne fakahā ʻae meʻa ni mei he kuonga ʻi muʻa? Ko hai kuo ne tala ia mei he kuonga ko ia? ʻIkai ko au ko Sihova? Pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha ʻOtua mo au; ko e ʻOtua angatonu pea ko e Fakamoʻui; ʻoku ʻikai ha taha mo au.
22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am] God, and [there is] none else.
“Sio mai kiate au pea mou moʻui ai, ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: he ko au pe ko e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha taha.
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
Kuo u fuakava ʻiate au pe, kuo ʻalu atu ʻae folofola ʻi hoku fofonga ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻe ʻikai foki ia, ʻE peluki ʻae tui kotoa pē kiate au, ʻe fuakava mo e ʻelelo kotoa pē.
24 Surely, shall [one] say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: [even] to him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
Ko e moʻoni, ʻe pehē ʻe ha tokotaha, ‘ʻOku ou maʻu ʻae māʻoniʻoni mo e mālohi ʻia Sihova:’” ʻio, ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kakai; pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻita kiate ia ʻe mā.
25 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
ʻE tonuhia ʻia Sihova ʻae hako kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea te nau vikiviki ai.
