< Isaiah 63 >

1 Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honorable in His clothing, Traveling in the abundance of His power? “I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.”
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 Why [is] Your clothing red? And Your garments as treading in a winepress?
Ko e hā ʻoku kulokula ai ho ngaahi kofu, pea tatau ho ngaahi kofu mo ia ʻoku molomoloki ʻi he tataʻoʻanga uaine?
3 “I have trodden a wine vat by Myself, And of the peoples there is no one with Me, And I tread them in My anger, And I trample them in My fury, Their strength is sprinkled on My garments, And I have defiled all My clothing.
“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 My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.
He ʻoku ʻi hoku loto ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fai totongi, pea kuo hokosia ʻae taʻu ʻo hoku huhuʻi.
5 And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And My own arm gives salvation to Me. And My wrath—it has supported 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 And I tread down peoples in My anger, And I make them drunk in My fury, And I bring down their strength to 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 make mention of the kind acts of YHWH, The praises of YHWH, According to all that YHWH has done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He has done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
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 And He says, “Surely they [are] My people, Sons—they do not lie,” and He is to them for a Savior.
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 distress [He is] no adversary, And the Messenger of His Presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He lifts them up, And carries them all the days of old.
‌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 And they have been rebellious and have grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turns to them for an enemy, He Himself has 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 And He remembers the days of old, Moses—his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of His flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
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 Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a continuous 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 Leading them through the depths, They do not stumble as a horse in a plain.
‌ʻAia naʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he moana, ʻo hangē ko e hoosi ʻi he toafa, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua te nau tūkia?”
14 As a beast goes down into a valley, The Spirit of YHWH causes him to rest, So You have led Your people, To make to Yourself 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 Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Your holy and beautiful habitation, Where [is] Your zeal and Your might? The multitude of Your bowels and Your mercies—Are they restrained?
‌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 For You [are] our Father, For Abraham has not known us, And Israel does not acknowledge us, You, O YHWH, [are] our Father, Our Redeemer from the Age, [is] Your Name.
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 Why cause us to wander, O YHWH, from Your ways? You harden our heart from Your fear, Turn back for Your servants’ sake, The tribes of Your 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 For a little while Your holy people possessed, Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
Kuo maʻu fuonounou pe ia ʻe he kakai ʻa hoʻo māʻoniʻoni: kuo molomoloki ʻe homau ngaahi fili ʻa ho fale tapu.
19 We have been from of old, You have not ruled over them, Your Name is not called on them!
‌ʻOku ʻaʻau ʻakimautolu: naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke puleʻi ʻakinautolu; naʻe ʻikai ui ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻa ho huafa.
