< Ezekiel 14 >

1 And he came to me men from [the] elders of Israel and they sat down before me.
Pea naʻe toki haʻu kiate au ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻonau nofo mai ʻi hoku ʻao.
2 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Pea naʻe hoko mai kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
3 O son of humankind the men these they have brought up idols their on heart their and [the] stumbling block of iniquity their they have put before faces their ¿ really will I let myself be consulted by them.
“Foha ʻoe tangata, kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he kau tangata ni honau ngaahi tamapua ʻi honau loto, pea ʻai mo e tūkiaʻanga ʻo ʻenau hia ʻi honau ʻao: ʻoku ngali koā ke fakafehuʻi ha meʻa kiate au ʻekinautolu?”
4 Therefore speak with them and you will say to them thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh a person a person from [the] house of Israel who he will bring up idols his to heart his and [the] stumbling block of iniquity his he will put before face his and he will go to the prophet I Yahweh I will let myself give an answer to him (he came *Q(K)*) by [the] multitude of idols his.
Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko e tangata kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia ʻoku fokotuʻu tamapua ʻi hono loto, mo ne ʻai ʻae tūkiaʻanga ʻo ʻene hia ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻoku haʻu ki he palōfita, Ko au ko Sihova, te u tali ia, ʻo fakatatau mo e tokolahi ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamapua;
5 So as to capture [the] house of Israel by heart their who they have become estranged from with me by idols their all of them.
Koeʻuhi ke u moʻua ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi honau loto ʻonautolu pe, koeʻuhi kuo nau mavahe kotoa pē meiate au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi tamapua.
6 Therefore say - to [the] house of Israel thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh turn back and turn away from with idols your and from with all abominations your turn away faces your.
“Ko ia ke ke lea ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Fakatomala pea tafoki mei hoʻomou ngaahi tamapua; pea tafoki homou mata mei hoʻomou ngaahi fakalielia kotoa pē.
7 For a person a person from [the] house of Israel and from the sojourner who he sojourns in Israel so he may separate himself from after me and he will bring up idols his to heart his and [the] stumbling block of iniquity his he will put before face his and he will go to the prophet to consult to him me I Yahweh [will] let myself give an answer to him by myself.
He ko ia kotoa pē ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ko e muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku mavahe ʻe ia ia meiate au, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ʻene ngaahi tamapua ʻi hono loto, ʻo ne ʻai ʻae tūkiaʻanga ʻo ʻene hia ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻoku haʻu ki he palōfita ke fakafehuʻi kiate ia koeʻuhi ko au; Ko au ko Sihova te u tali ia ʻeau pe.
8 And I will set face my on the person that and I will make him into a sign and into bywords and I will cut off him from among people my and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Pea te u fakahangatonu hoku mata ki he tangata ko ia, pea te u ngaohi ia ko e fakaʻilonga mo e lea fakatātā, pea te u motuhi ia mei he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.
9 And the prophet if he will be deceived and he will speak a word I Yahweh I have deceived the prophet that and I will stretch out hand my on him and I will destroy him from among people my Israel.
Pea kapau ʻe kākaaʻi ʻae palōfita ʻoka lea ʻaki ʻe ia ha meʻa, ko au ia ko Sihova ʻoku fakahalaia ia, pea te u mafao atu kiate ia ʻa hoku nima, pea fakaʻauha ia mei he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli,
10 And they will bear iniquity their as [the] iniquity of the enquirer as [the] iniquity of the prophet it will be.
Pea te nau fua ʻae tautea ʻo ʻenau angahala: ʻe tatau pe ʻae tautea ʻoe palōfita mo e tautea ʻo ia ʻoku kumi kiate ia;
11 So that not they will wander again [the] house of Israel from after me and not they will make themselves unclean again by all transgressions their and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa toe ʻalu pehē ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli meiate au, pea ʻoua naʻa toe fakalielia ia ʻi heʻenau ngaahi angahala; ka nau hoko ko hoku kakai, pea u hoko au ko honau ʻOtua:” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
12 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Naʻe toe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
13 O son of humankind a land if it will sin to me by acting unfaithfully unfaithfulness and I will stretch out hand my on it and I will break of it staff of bread and I will send on it famine and I will cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoka angahala ʻae fonua kiate au ʻi heʻene fai kovi lahi, te u toki mafao atu ai hoku nima, pea ʻe maumau ʻae falalaʻanga ʻoe mā ʻoku ʻi ai, pea te u tuku ia ke hongea, pea motuhi mei ai ʻae tangata mo e manu:
14 And they will be [the] three the men these in [the] midst of it Noah (Daniel *Q(K)*) and Job they by righteousness their they will deliver own life their [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Ka ne ʻi ai ʻae kau tangata ni ʻe toko tolu, ʻa Noa, mo Taniela, mo Siope, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻe fakamoʻui honau laumālie pe ʻonautolu ʻi heʻenau māʻoniʻoni.
15 If animal[s] wild I will cause to pass in the land and it will make childless it and it will be a desolation because not [one who] passes by because of the animal[s].
“Kapau te u tuku ʻae fanga manu fekai ke ʻalu fano ʻi he fonua, pea nau maumauʻi ia, koeʻuhi ke hoko ia ʻo lala, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻi ai ha tangata telia ʻae ngaahi manu fekai:
16 [the] three The men these [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if sons and if daughters they will deliver they to alone them they will be delivered and the land it will be a desolation.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ka ne ʻi ai ʻae kau tangata ko ia ʻe toko tolu, ʻo hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻe ʻikai te nau fakamoʻui honau foha pe ha ʻofefine; ngata pe ʻiate kinautolu ʻe fakamoʻui, ka ʻe ʻauha ʻae fonua.
17 Or a sword I will bring on the land that and I will say a sword let it pass in the land and I will cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Pea kapau te u ʻomi ʻae heletā ke hoko ki he fonua, pea u pehē, Heletā ʻasi atu ki he fonua; kau motuhi mei ai ʻae tangata pea mo e manu:
18 And [the] three the men these [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh not they will deliver sons and daughters for they to alone them they will be delivered.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ka ne ʻi ai ʻae kau tangata ko ia ʻe toko tolu, ʻe ʻikai te nau fakamoʻui ha foha pe ha ʻofefine, ka ko kinautolu pe ʻe moʻui ʻiate kinautolu.
19 Or pestilence I will send against the land that and I will pour out rage my on it by blood to cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
“Pea kapau te u tuku ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha ki he fonua, pea u lilingi hoku houhau ki ai ʻi he toto, ke motuhi mei ai ʻae tangata pea mo e manu:
20 And Noah (Daniel *Q(K)*) and Job [will be] in [the] midst of it [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if a son if a daughter they will deliver they by righteousness their they will deliver own life their.
Neongo ʻoku hā ai ʻa Noa, mo Taniela, mo Siope, hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai te nau fakamoʻui ha foha pe ha ʻofefine; ngata ʻi honau laumālie pe ʻonautolu ʻe hao ʻi heʻenau māʻoniʻoni.”
21 For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh indeed? if [the] four judgments my - harmful sword and famine and animal[s] wild and pestilence I will send against Jerusalem to cut off from it humankind and animal[s].
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Kae fēfē nai ʻo kau ka tuku atu fakataha ʻae fakamalaʻia ʻe fā ki Selūsalema, ʻae heletā, mo e honge, mo e fanga manu fekai, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, ke motuhi mei ai ʻae tangata mo e manu?
22 And there! it will be left in it an escaped remnant about to be led out sons and daughters there they [are] about to come out to you and you will see conduct their and practices their and you will be comforted on the calamity which I have brought on Jerusalem all that I have brought on it.
“Kae vakai, ʻe fakatoe ha niʻihi ʻi ai ke fakahaofi, ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine: vakai te nau ʻomi kituʻa kiate kimoutolu, pea te mou mamata ki honau hala mo ʻenau faianga; pea te mou fiemālie mei he kovi ʻaia kuo u ʻomi ki Selūsalema, ʻio, ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē kuo u fakahoko ki ai.
23 And they will comfort you if you will see conduct their and practices their and you will know that not without cause I have done all that I have done in it [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Pea te nau fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻoka mou ka mamata ki honau hala mo ʻenau faianga: pea te mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai te u fai noa pe ha meʻa ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u fai ki ai,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
