Jeremiah 51
1 Thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am stirring up against Babylon, And the inhabitants of Leb, My withstanders, A destroying wind,
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Vakai, te u fakatupu ha matangi fakaʻauha ki Papilone, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi ai, ʻakinautolu ʻoku angatuʻu kiate au;
2 And I have sent fanners to Babylon, And they have fanned her, and they empty her land, For they have been against her, All around—in the day of evil.
Pea te u fekau ki Papilone ʻae kau tangata vahevahe kafukafu, pea te nau aloalo ia, pea te nau fakamaha hono fonua: he te nau nofo takatakai ʻiate ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi.
3 Do not let the treader tread his bow, Nor lift himself up in his coat of mail, Nor have pity on her young men, Devote all her host to destruction.
Pea ʻe teke ʻae kaufana ʻae tangata fakakaufana ki he tangata fakakaufana, pea kiate ia ʻoku hiki hake ia ʻi hono kofu tau: pea ʻoua naʻa mamae ki hono kau talavou; fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻa ʻene kautau kotoa pē.
4 And the wounded have fallen in the land of the Chaldeans, And the pierced-through in her streets.
ʻE tō pehē ʻae teʻia ʻi he fonua ʻo Kalitia, pea mo kinautolu kuo hokaʻi ke ʻasi ʻi he ngaahi hala.
5 For Israel and Judah are not forsaken By his God—by YHWH of Hosts, For their land has been full of guilt, Against the Holy One of Israel.
He naʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻa ʻIsileli, pe ko Siuta ʻe hono ʻOtua, ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; neongo hono pito honau fonua ʻi he angahala ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.
6 Flee from the midst of Babylon, And let each deliver his soul, Do not be cut off in her iniquity, For it [is] a time of vengeance for YHWH—His, He is rendering repayment to her.
Mou hola mei loto Papilone, pea fakahaofi ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa ʻene moʻui: ke ʻoua naʻa fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu ʻi heʻene hia: he ko e kuonga eni ʻoe houhau ʻo Sihova: te ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae totongi.
7 Babylon [is] a golden cup in the hand of YHWH, Making all the earth drunk, Nations have drunk of her wine, Therefore nations boast themselves.
Ko Papilone ko e ipu koula ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe fakakonā ʻa māmani kotoa pē: kuo inu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ki heʻene uaine; ko ia kuo faha ai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga.
8 Babylon has suddenly fallen, Indeed, she is broken, howl for her, Take balm for her pain, perhaps she may be healed.
Kuo hinga pea ʻauha fakafokifā ʻa Papilone: mou tangi kalanga koeʻuhi ko ia; pea ʻange ʻae feau koeʻuhi ko ʻene mamahi, heiʻilo ʻe fakamoʻui ia.
9 We healed Babylon, and she was not healed, Forsake her, and we go, each to his land, For her judgment has come to the heavens, And it has been lifted up to the clouds.
Naʻa mau fie fakamoʻui ʻa Papilone, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne moʻui: liʻaki ia, pea ke tau taki taha ʻalu ki hono fonua: he kuo aʻu ʻa hono tautea ki he langi, pea kuo hiki hake ia ki he ngaahi ʻao.
10 YHWH has brought forth our righteousnesses, Come, and we recount in Zion the work of our God YHWH.
Kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻetau angatonu: ‘Haʻu ke tau fakahā ʻi Saione ʻae ngāue ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.’
11 Cleanse the arrows, fill the shields, YHWH has stirred up the spirit of the kings of Media, For His purpose [is] against Babylon to destroy her, For it [is] the vengeance of YHWH, The vengeance of His temple.
Fakangingila ʻae ngaahi ngahau, pea tānaki ʻae ngaahi fakaū: kuo ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Mitia: he kuo ne tokanga ki Papilone ke fakaʻauha ia; koeʻuhi ko e houhau ia ʻo Sihova, ko e totongi koeʻuhi ko hono fale tapu.
12 Lift up an ensign to the walls of Babylon, Strengthen the watch, Establish the watchers, prepare the ambush, For YHWH has both devised and done that which He spoke, Concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
“Fokotuʻu ʻae fuka ki he ngaahi ʻā ʻo Papilone, fokotuʻu ʻae kau leʻo mālohi, fakanofo ʻae kau tangata leʻo, teuteu ʻae ngaahi malumu:” he kuo tokanga ʻa Sihova pea kuo fai ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ki he kakai ʻo Papilone.
13 O dweller on many waters, abundant in treasures, Your end has come—the measure of your dishonest gain.
ʻA koe ʻoku ke nofo ʻi he ngaahi vai lahi, pea mohu koloaʻia, kuo hokosia ho ngataʻanga, pea mo e fuofua ʻo hoʻo manumanu.
14 YHWH of Hosts has sworn by Himself, That, Surely I have filled you [with] men as the cankerworm, And they have cried against you—shouting.
Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻiate ia pe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni te u fakapito ʻaki koe ʻae kau tangata, ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻunufe; pea te nau fai ʻae kalanga kiate koe.’
15 Making [the] earth by His power, Establishing [the] world by His wisdom, Who by His understanding stretched out the heavens,
“Kuo ne ngaohi ʻae kelekele ʻaki hono mālohi, pea kuo ne fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa māmani ʻi heʻene poto, pea kuo ne folahi atu ʻae ngaahi langi ʻi heʻene ʻiloʻilo.
16 At the voice He gives forth, A multitude of waters [are] in the heavens, And He causes vapors to come up from the end of the earth, He has made lightnings for rain, And He brings out wind from His treasures.
ʻOka hiki hake ʻe ia hono leʻo ʻoku ai ʻae vai lahi ʻi he langi; pea ʻoku ne pule ke ʻalu hake ʻae ngaahi kakapu mei he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani: ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae ʻuhila mo e ʻuha, pea ʻomi ʻae matangi mei hono ngaahi feleoko.
17 Every man has been brutish by knowledge, Everyone has been put to shame—from refining a carved image, For his molten image [is] falsehood, And there is no breath in them.
ʻOku vale ʻae tangata taki taha ʻi heʻene ʻilo; ʻoku mā ʻae tufunga taki taha ʻi heʻene meʻa fakatātā kuo tā: he ko e fakatātā kuo haka ko e loi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha mānava ʻiate kinautolu.
18 They [are] vanity—a work of errors, They perish in the time of their inspection.
Ko e vaʻinga ʻakinautolu, ko e ngāue ʻae kau hē: ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo honau ʻaʻahi.
19 The Portion of Jacob [is] not like these, For He is forming the whole, And [Israel is] the tribe of His inheritance, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
ʻOku ʻikai tatau mo kinautolu ʻae ʻinasi ʻo Sēkope; he ʻoku muʻa ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē: pea ko e tokotoko ʻo hono tofiʻa ʻa ʻIsileli: ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau hono huafa.
20 You [are] My shatterer—weapons of war, And I have broken in pieces nations by you, And I have destroyed kingdoms by you,
“Ko koe ko hoku toki ke tau ʻaki mo ʻeku mahafutau: he te u laiki ʻaki koe ke momo ʻae ngaahi fonua, pea te u fakaʻauha ʻaki ko e ngaahi puleʻanga;
21 And I have broken in pieces horse and its rider by you, And I have broken in pieces chariot and its charioteer by you,
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae hoosi mo e tangata ʻoku heka ai; pea teu laiki ʻaki koe ʻae saliote mo e tangata ʻoku heka ai;
22 And I have broken in pieces man and woman by you, And I have broken in pieces old and young by you, And I have broken in pieces young man and virgin by you,
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe foki ʻae tangata mo e fefine; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻaia ʻoku motuʻa mo e tamasiʻi; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae talavou pea mo e taʻahine.
23 And I have broken in pieces shepherd and his drove by you, And I have broken in pieces farmer and his team by you, And I have broken in pieces governors and prefects by you.
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae tauhi mo ʻene fanga sipi; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae tangata ngoue mo ʻene fanga manu; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae houʻeiki mo e kau pule.
24 And I have repaid to Babylon, And to all inhabitants of Chaldea, All the evil that they have done in Zion, Before your eyes,” a declaration of YHWH.
“Pea te u totongi ki Papilone pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kalitia ʻae kovi kotoa pē kuo nau fai ki Saione ʻi homou ʻao,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
25 “Behold, I [am] against you, O destroying mountain,” A declaration of YHWH, “That is destroying all the earth, And I have stretched out My hand against you, And I have rolled you from the rocks, And given you for a burnt mountain.
“ʻE moʻunga faʻa fakaʻauha, vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu kiate koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “a koe ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻa māmani kotoa pē: pea te u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, pea fakateka koe ki lalo mei he ngaahi makatuʻu, pea te u ngaohi koe ko e moʻunga vela.
26 And they do not take out of you a stone for a corner, And a stone for foundations, For you are continuous desolations,” A declaration of YHWH.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toʻo meiate koe ʻae maka ke tuliki ʻaki, pe ha maka ke tuʻunga ʻaki; ka te ke lala pe ʻo taʻengata,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
27 “Lift up an ensign in the land, Blow a horn among nations, Sanctify nations against it, Summon against it the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz, Appoint an infant head against it, Cause the horse to ascend as the rough cankerworm.
“Mou fokotuʻu ʻae fuka ʻi he fonua, ifi ʻae meʻalea ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, teuteu ʻae kakai ke tauʻi ia, ui ke fakataha kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ʻAlalate, mo Minai, mo ʻAsikenasi; fakanofo kiate ia ʻae pule; fekau ke haʻu kiate ia ʻae fanga hoosi ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻunufe felefele.
28 Sanctify against it the nations with the kings of Media, Its governors and all its prefects, And all the land of its dominion.
Teuteu kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga, mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Mitia, mo hono ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo hono kau pule kotoa pē, pea mo e fonua kotoa pē ʻo honau puleʻanga.
29 And the land shakes, and it is pained, For the purposes of YHWH have stood against Babylon, To make the land of Babylon a desolation without inhabitant.
Pea ʻe tetetete ʻae fonua pea mamahi ia: koeʻuhi ʻe fakahoko ki Papilone ʻae tuʻutuʻuni kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ke ngaohi ʻae fonua ko Papilone ke lala taʻehanokakai.
30 The mighty of Babylon have ceased to fight, They have remained in strongholds, Their might has failed, they have become [as] women, They have burned her dwelling places, Her bars have been broken.
ʻOku ʻikai tau ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻo Papilone, kuo nau nofo ʻi honau ngaahi potu mālohi: kuo mole ʻenau mālohi; kuo nau liliu ʻo hangē ko e kau fefine: kuo tutu honau ngaahi nofoʻanga; kuo fesiʻi honau ngaahi fakamaʻu.
31 Runner runs to meet runner, And announcer to meet announcer, To announce to the king of Babylon, For his city has been captured—at the extremity.
E lele ʻae tangata talafekau ʻe taha, pea ʻe fakafetaulaki ʻae tangata ongoongo mo e tangata ongoongo, ke tala ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, kuo lavaʻi ʻene kolo mei hono ngataʻanga,
32 And the passages have been captured, And they have burned the reeds with fire, And the men of war have been troubled.
Pea kuo tāpuni ʻae ngaahi hala, pea kuo tutu ʻae kaho ʻaki ʻae afi, pea kuo ilifia ʻae kau tangata tau.
33 For thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon [is] as a threshing-floor, The time of her threshing—yet a little [while], And the time of her harvest has come.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “ʻOku tatau ʻae taʻahine ʻo Papilone mo e hahaʻanga; kuo hokosi ʻae ʻaho ke haha ia: ʻe toetoe siʻi pea ʻe hoko kiate ia hono ututaʻu.
34 Devoured us, crushed us, has Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, He has set us [as] an empty vessel, He has swallowed us as a dragon, He has filled his belly with my delicacies, He has driven us away.
“Kuo kai ʻo ʻosi au, pea kuo fakaʻauha au ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, kuo ne ngaohi au ko e ipu maha, kuo ne folo ʻo ʻosi au ʻo hangē ko e talākoni, kuo ne fakapito hono kete ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi meʻa lelei, kuo ne lī au kituʻa.
35 My wrong, and [that of] my flesh, [is] on Babylon—The inhabitant of Zion says; And my blood [is] on the inhabitants of Chaldea—Jerusalem says.
ʻE pehē ʻe he kakai ʻo Saione, “ʻE hoko ki Papilone, ʻae fakamālohi kuo fai kiate au mo hoku kakano:” pea ʻe pehē ʻe Selūsalema, “Ke ʻi he kakai ʻo Kalitia ʻa hoku toto.”
36 Therefore, thus said YHWH: Behold, I am pleading your cause, And I have avenged your vengeance, And dried up her sea, and made her fountains dry.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, te u langomakiʻi koe, pea te u tautea koeʻuhi ko koe; pea te u fakatafe ke maha hono tahi, pea te u fakamaha hono ngaahi matavai.
37 And Babylon has been for heaps, A habitation of dragons, An astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻa Papilone ko e potu tokatāmaki, ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga talākoni, ko e meʻa fakaofo, ko e meʻa fakaʻiseʻisa, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha kakai.
38 They roar together as young lions, They have shaken themselves as lions’ whelps.
Pea te nau ngungulu fakataha ʻo hangē ko e fanga talākoni; pea te nau ueʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻuhikiʻi laione.
39 In their heat I make their banquets, And I have caused them to drink, so that they exult, And have slept a continuous sleep, And do not awaken,” a declaration of YHWH.
Pea ʻi heʻenau holi ʻe teuteu ʻeau ʻenau ngaahi kātoanga, pea te u fakakonaʻi ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau nekeneka, pea mohe ʻi he mohe taʻengata, pea ʻoua naʻa toe ʻā,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
40 “I cause them to go down as lambs to slaughter, As rams with male goats.
Pea te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami ki he tāmateʻi, ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata fakataha mo e fanga kosi.
41 How Sheshach has been captured, Indeed, the praise of the whole earth is caught, How Babylon has been for an astonishment among nations.
“Hono ʻikai lavaʻi ʻa Sisake! Pea kuo fēfē ʻae lapasi ʻo ia naʻe ongoongo ʻi māmani kotoa pē! Kuo hoko fēfē ʻa Papilone ko e fakatumutumuanga ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga!
42 The sea has come up over Babylon, She has been covered with a multitude of its billows.
Kuo hake ʻae tahi ki Papilone: kuo ʻufiʻufi ia ʻaki hono ngaahi peau lahi.
43 Her cities have been for a desolation, A dry land, and a wilderness, A land—none dwell in them, Nor does a son of man pass over into them.
Kuo hoko hono ngaahi kolo ko e potu lala, ko e fonua mōmoa, pea ko e toafa, ko e fonua ʻoku ʻikai nofo ai ha tangata, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻalu ai ʻae foha ʻoe tangata.
44 And I have seen after Bel in Babylon, And I have brought forth that which he swallowed—from his mouth, And nations no longer flow to him, Also the wall of Babylon has fallen.
Pea te u tautea ʻa Peli ʻi Papilone, pea te u ʻomi mei hono ngutu ʻaia kuo ne folo hifo: pea ʻe ʻikai toe fakataha kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga: ʻio, ʻe hinga ʻae ʻā ʻo Papilone.
45 Go forth from her midst, O My people, And let each deliver his soul, Because of the fierceness of the anger of YHWH,
ʻE hoku kakai, mou ʻalu atu mei he lotolotonga ʻo ia, pea taki taha fakamoʻui ʻa hono laumālie mei he houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.
46 And lest your heart be tender, And you are afraid of the report that is heard in the land, And the report has come in [one] year, And after it [another] report in [another] year, And violence [is] in the land, ruler against ruler;
Pea telia naʻa vaivai homou loto, pea mou manavahē koeʻuhi ko e ongoongo ʻaia ʻe ongoʻi ʻi he fonua; koeʻuhi ʻe hoko mai ʻae ongoongo ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, pea hili ia ʻe toe hoko mo e ongoongo ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, mo e fakamālohi ʻi he fonua, ko e pule ki he pule.
47 Therefore, behold, days are coming, And I have seen after the carved images of Babylon. And all its land is ashamed, And all its pierced ones fall in its midst.
Ko ia, vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, te u tautea ai ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻo Papilone: pea ʻe maveuveu hono fonua kotoa pē, pea ʻe tō ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia ʻa hono kakai mate kotoa pē.
48 And heavens and earth and all that [is] in them Have cried aloud against Babylon, For the spoilers come to her from the north,” A declaration of YHWH.
Pea ʻe toki hiva ki Papilone ʻae ngaahi langi pea mo māmani, pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi ai: ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau maumau mei he tokelau,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
49 “As Babylon [has caused the] pierced of Israel to fall, So they of Babylon have fallen, You pierced of all the earth.
Hangē kuo tō ʻae mate ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Papilone ʻe tō pehē ʻi Papilone ʻae tāmateʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
50 You escaped of the sword, go on, do not stand, Remember YHWH from afar, And let Jerusalem come up on your heart.
ʻAlu ʻakimoutolu kuo hao ʻi he heletā, pea ʻoua naʻa veʻetōʻohi: fakamanatu kia Sihova mei he mamaʻo, pea manatu ʻi homou loto ki Selūsalema.”
51 We have been ashamed, for we heard reproach, Shame has covered our faces, For strangers have come in against the sanctuaries of the house of YHWH.
“Kuo mau puputuʻu, koeʻuhi kuo mau fanongo ki he ongoongo kovi: kuo ʻufiʻufi homau mata ʻaki ʻae mā: koeʻuhi kuo hū mai ʻae kau muli ki he ngaahi potu tapu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova.”
52 Therefore, behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have seen after her carved images, And the wounded groan in all her land.
Ko ia, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku hoko ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, ʻa ia te u tautea ai hono ngaahi tamapua kuo tongi, pea ʻe toʻetoʻe ʻae lavea ʻi hono fonua kotoa pē.
53 Because Babylon goes up to the heavens, And because she fortifies the high place of her strength, Spoilers come into her from Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
Kapau ʻe kaka hake ʻa Papilone ki he ngaahi langi, pea kapau te ne ngaohi hono ngaahi potu mālohi ki ʻolunga,” ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE ʻalu atu meiate au kiate ia ʻae kau maumauʻi.
54 “A voice of a cry [is] from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldean.
ʻOku ongo mai ʻae longoaʻa ʻoe tangi mei Papilone, pea mo e fakaʻauha lahi mei he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia:
55 For YHWH is spoiling Babylon, And has destroyed her great voice, And her billows have sounded as many waters, Their voice has given forth a noise.
Koeʻuhi kuo maumauʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa Papilone, pea fakaʻauha ʻae longoaʻa lahi ʻiate ia; ʻoku ʻuʻulu hono ngaahi peau ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi vai lahi, ko e longoaʻa ʻo honau leʻo ʻoku ongo:
56 For a spoiler has come in against her—against Babylon, And her mighty ones have been captured, Their bows have been broken, For the God of recompenses—YHWH—certainly repays.
Koeʻuhi kuo hoko ʻae maumau kiate ia, ʻio, ki Papilone, pea kuo lavaʻi ʻa hono kau tangata mālohi, kuo fesiʻi ʻenau kaufana kotoa pē: he ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua faʻa totongi, pea ko e moʻoni te ne totongi.
57 And I have caused her princes to drink, And her wise men, her governors, And her prefects, and her mighty ones, And they have slept a continuous sleep, And they do not awaken—an affirmation of the King, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
Pea te u fakakonaʻi hono houʻeiki, pea mo hono kau tangata poto, mo hono ngaahi ʻeiki, mo hono kau pule, pea mo hono kau tangata mālohi: pea te nau mohe ʻi he mohe taʻengata, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻā, ʻoku pehē ʻe he tuʻi, ʻaia ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
58 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: The wall of Babylon—The broad one—is made utterly bare, And her high gates are burned with fire, And peoples labor in vain, And nations in fire, and have been weary!”
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “ʻE maumau ʻaupito ʻae ngaahi ʻā laulahi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe tutu ʻaki ʻae afi hono ngaahi matapā māʻolunga; pea ʻe ngāue taʻeʻaonga ʻae kakai, pea ʻe feinga ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga koeʻuhi ko e afi.”
59 The word that Jeremiah the prophet has commanded Seraiah son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, in his going with Zedekiah king of Judah to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign—and Seraiah [is] a quiet prince;
Ko e lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Selemaia, ko e palōfita kia Selaia ko e foha ʻo Nelia, ko e foha ʻo Māseia, ʻi heʻene ʻalu meia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki Papilone ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo ʻene pule. Pea ko e Selaia ni ko e ʻeiki angamalū ia.
60 and Jeremiah writes all the calamity that comes to Babylon on one scroll—all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
Pea naʻe tohi ʻi he tohi ʻe Selemaia ʻae kovi kotoa pē ʻe hoko ki Papilone, ʻio, ʻae lea ni kotoa pē kuo tohi ki Papilone.
61 And Jeremiah says to Seraiah, “When you enter Babylon, then you have seen, and have read all these words,
Pea pehē ʻe Selemaia kia Selaia, “ʻOka ke ka hoko ki Papilone, te ke mamata, pea lau ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē;
62 and have said: YHWH, You have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that there is none dwelling in it, from man even to livestock, for it is a continuous desolation.
Pea te ke toki lea ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE Sihova, kuo ke folofola ki he potu ni, ke tuʻusi ia, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nofo ai ha tokotaha, ha tangata pe ha manu, ka ʻe lala ia ʻo taʻengata.’
63 And it has come to pass, when you finish reading this scroll, you bind a stone to it, and have cast it into the midst of the Euphrates,
Pea ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻosi hoʻo lau ʻae tohi ni, ke ke noʻotaki ki ai ʻae maka, pea lī ia ki loto ʻIufaletesi.
64 and said, Thus Babylon sinks, and she does not arise, because of the calamity that I am bringing in against it, and they have been weary.” Until now [are the] words of Jeremiah.
Pea ke ke lea ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ngalo pehē hifo ʻa Papilone, pea ʻe ʻikai toetuʻu ia mei he kovi ʻaia te u fakahoko ki ai: pea te nau fiu ai.’” Ko hono ngata ia ʻoe ngaahi lea ʻa Selemaia.
