Ezekiel 28

1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

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

2 “Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because your heart has been high, And you say: I [am] a god, I have inhabited the habitation of God, In the heart of the seas, And you [are] man, and not God, And you give out your heart as the heart of God,

“Foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke lea ki he tuʻi ʻo Taia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Koeʻuhi kuo hiki hake ho loto, pea kuo ke pehē, ‘Ko e ʻotua au,’ ʻoku ou nofo ʻi he nofoʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he loto tahi; ka ko e tangata pe ʻa koe, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻOtua, neongo hoʻo ʻai ho loto ke ke hangē ko e ʻOtua:

3 Behold, you [are] wiser than Daniel, No hidden thing have they concealed from you.

Vakai, ʻoku ke poto hake ʻia Taniela; ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa lilo te nau faʻa fufū meiate koe:

4 By your wisdom and by your understanding You have made wealth for yourself, And make gold and silver in your treasuries.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo poto mo hoʻo faʻa ʻilo, kuo ke maʻu ʻe koe ʻae koloa lahi, pea kuo ke tānaki ʻae koula mo e siliva, ki he tukuʻanga koloa:

5 By the abundance of your wisdom, Through your merchandise, You have multiplied your wealth, And your heart is high through your wealth.

Ko e meʻa ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo poto, pea mo hoʻo faʻa fakatau, kuo ke fakalahi ai ʻa hoʻo koloa, pea kuo hiki hake ho loto koeʻuhi ko hoʻo koloaʻia.

6 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because of your giving out your heart as the heart of God,

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua koeʻuhi kuo ke ʻai ho loto ke ke hangē ko ha ʻOtua;

7 Therefore, behold, I am bringing in strangers against you, The terrible of the nations, And they have drawn out their swords Against the beauty of your wisdom, And they have pierced your brightness.

Vakai, ko ia te u ʻomi ai kiate koe ʻae kau muli, ʻae kau mālohi mei he ngaahi puleʻanga: pea te nau toho ʻenau heletā ki he toulekeleka ʻo hoʻo poto, pea te nau fakaʻuliʻi hoʻo ngingila.

8 They bring you down to destruction, You die by the deaths of the wounded, in the heart of the seas.

Te nau fakahifo koe ki lalo ki he luo, pea te ke mate ʻi he mateʻanga ʻonautolu ʻoku mate tāmateʻi ʻi loto tahi.

9 Do you really say, I [am] God, Before him who is slaying you? And you [are] man, and not God, In the hand of him who is piercing you.

‌ʻIkai te ke pehē pe ʻi he ʻao ʻo ia te ne tāmateʻi koe, Ko e ʻOtua au? Ka ko e tangata pe koe, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻOtua, ʻi he nima ʻo ia te ne tāmateʻi koe.

10 You die the deaths of the uncircumcised, By the hand of strangers, for I have spoken,” A declaration of Lord YHWH.

Te ke mate ʻi he mateʻanga ʻo ha taha taʻekamu, ʻi he nima ʻoe kau muli: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ko au ia, kuo lea ki ai.”

11 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

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

12 “Son of man, lift up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, And you have said to him, Thus said Lord YHWH: You are sealing up a measurement, Full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

“Foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia, pea ke pehē ki ai, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; kuo ke ngaohi ho fakatātā, ʻi he poto, mo e toulekeleka haohaoa.

13 You have been in Eden, the garden of God, Every precious stone [was] your covering, Ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, emerald, and carbuncle, and gold, The workmanship of your tambourines and of your pipes, In you in the day of your being produced, have been created;

Kuo ke ʻi ʻIteni ko e ngoue ʻae ʻOtua naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae maka koloa kotoa pē, ʻae satiose, mo e topasi, mo e taiamoni, mo e pelili, mo e onikisi, mo e sasipa, mo e safaia, mo e ʻemalata, mo e kaponika, pea mo e koula: ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fanauʻi ai koe, naʻe teuteu ʻae teunga ʻo hoʻo ngaahi meʻatatangi mo hoʻo ngaahi meʻaifi ʻiate koe.

14 And I established you as the anointed, covering cherub, You have been in [the] holy mountain of God, You have walked up and down in [the] midst of [the] stones of fire.

‌ʻOku ke hangē koe ko e Selupi ʻoku fakamalumalu mei ʻolunga; kuo u ʻai koe ʻeau ke ke pehē: naʻa ke ʻi he moʻunga tapu ʻoe ʻOtua; kuo ke feʻaluʻaki ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi maka afi.

15 You [were] perfect in your ways, From [the] day of your being created, Until perversity was found in you.

Naʻa ke haohaoa ʻi ho hala mei ho fanauʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻe ʻilo ai ʻiate koe ʻae angahala.

16 By [the] abundance of your merchandise They have filled your midst with violence, And you sin, And I thrust you from [the] mountain of God, And I destroy you, O covering cherub, From [the] midst of [the] stones of fire.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hono lahi ʻo hoʻo fai fakatau kuo nau fakapito koe ʻi he fakamālohi, pea kuo ke fai hala: ko ia ia te u liʻaki ai koe mei he moʻunga tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ha taha fakalielia: pea te u fakaʻauha koe, ʻa koe ko e selupi ʻoku lolofa mai, mei he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi maka afi.

17 Your heart has been high because of your beauty, You have corrupted your wisdom because of your brightness, I have cast you to earth, I have set you before kings, to look on you,

Naʻe hiki ho loto ko e meʻa ʻi ho toulekeleka, pea kuo ke maumauʻi hoʻo poto ko e meʻa ʻi ho nāunauʻia: te u lī hifo koe ki he kelekele, te u fakatōkilalo koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi, koeʻuhi ke nau mamata kiate koe.

18 From [the] abundance of your iniquity, By [the] perversity of your merchandise, You have defiled your sanctuaries, And I bring forth fire from your midst, It has devoured you, And I make you become ashes on the earth, In [the] eyes of all beholding you.

Kuo ke fakalieliaʻi ho ngaahi fale tapu ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo fai hala, mo e kovi ʻa hoʻo fai fakatau; ko ia te u ʻomi ʻae afi mei loto ʻiate koe, pea te ne fakaʻauha koe, te u liliu koe ko e efuefu ʻi he funga ʻo māmani ʻi he ʻao ʻonautolu kotoa pē ʻoku siofia koe.

19 All knowing you among the peoples Have been astonished at you, You have been terrors, and you are not—for all time.”

‌ʻE ofo kiate koe ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he kakai ʻoku ʻiloʻi koe: te ke hoko ko e meʻa fakailifia, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke kei ʻi ai ʻo taʻengata.”

20 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

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

21 “Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy concerning it;

“Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata ki Saitone, pea ke kikite ki ai,

22 and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, O Sidon, And I have been honored in your midst, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My doing judgments in her, And I have been sanctified in her.

Pea ke lea, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, ʻE Saitone, ʻoku ou tuʻu au kiate koe; pea ʻe fakaongoongoleleiʻi au ʻiate koe, pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka fai ʻae fakamaau kiate ia, pea ka fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻiate ia.

23 And I have sent pestilence into her, And blood into her out-places, The wounded has been judged in her midst, By the sword on her all around, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.

He te u fekau atu kiate ia ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea ʻe tafe ʻae toto ʻi hono ngaahi hala; pea ʻe tautea ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻi hono lotolotonga, pea mei he potu kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu kuo lavea; pea te nau ʻilo ai ko Sihova au.

24 And there is no more pricking brier and paining thorn For the house of Israel, Of all around them—despising them, And they have known that I [am] Lord YHWH.

Pea ʻe ʻikai kei ʻi ai ha tolounua ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ha talaʻi ʻakau fakamamahi ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate ia, ʻakinautolu naʻe manuki kiate ia; pea te nau ʻilo au, ko au ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”

25 Thus said Lord YHWH: In My gathering the house of Israel, Out of the peoples among whom they were scattered, I have been sanctified in them, Before the eyes of the nations, And they have dwelt on their ground, That I gave to My servant, to Jacob,

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻO kau ka tānaki mai ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli, mei he kakai kuo nau movetevete atu ki ai, pea ka fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, te nau toki nofo ki honau fonua, ʻaia naʻaku foaki ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Sēkope.

26 And they have dwelt confidently on it, And built houses, and planted vineyards, And dwelt confidently—in My doing judgments, On all those despising them all around, And they have known that I [am] their God YHWH!”

Pea te nau nofo lelei pe ʻi ai, pea te nau langa fale, pea tō ngoue vaine; ʻio, te nau nofo fiemālie, ʻo kau ka fai ʻeau ʻae tautea kiate kinautolu ʻoku manukiʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻi ai; pea te nau ʻilo au, ko Sihova ko honau ʻOtua.
