< Ezekiel 38 >
1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
“Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata kia Koki, ʻae fonua ko Mekoki, ʻaia ʻoku ʻeiki lahi hake ʻia Meseke, pea mo Tupale, pea kikite kiate ia,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
Mo ke pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, ʻe Koki, ʻoku ou tuʻu au kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e ʻeiki lahi ʻi Meseke, pea mo Tupale;
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thy army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
Pea te u fakafoki koe ki mui, pea te u ʻai ʻae mātaʻu ki ho ngutu, pea te u fusi mai ʻa koe, mo hoʻo kau tau kotoa pē, ʻae fanga hoosi, mo e kau heka hoosi, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku kofu fakaʻeiʻeiki, ʻio, ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ʻoku toʻo ʻae fakaū mo e pā, pea ʻoku nau taki taha toʻo mo e heletā ʻi honau nima;
5 Persia, Cush, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
ʻA Peasia, mo ʻItiopea, mo Lipea, fakataha mo kinautolu; ʻoku ʻai kotoa pē ʻekinautolu ʻae pā, mo e tatā ki he tau:
6 Gomer, and all his troops; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his troops: and many people with thee.
ʻA Komela, pea mo ʻene ngaahi matatau; ʻae fale ʻo Tokama mei he feituʻu tokelau, mo ʻene faʻahitaʻu ʻaʻana; pea mo e kakai tokolahi kuo fakataha mo koe.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled to thee, and be thou a guard to them.
Ke ke teuteu pe koe, pea ke teuteu pe maʻau, ʻa koe, mo e kakai kotoa pē kuo fakataha mai kiate koe, pea ke leʻohi ʻe koe kiate kinautolu.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall all dwell in safety.
Hili ʻae ngaahi ʻaho lahi ʻe fai ʻae ʻaʻahi kiate koe: te ke toe hoko mai ʻi he ngaahi taʻu fakamui, ki he fonua kuo fakamoʻui mai mei he heletā, pea ʻe tānaki koe mei he ngaahi kakai tokolahi, ki he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe lala ʻo fuoloa: ʻio, ʻe ʻomi ia mei he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea te nau nofo malu kotoa pē ʻakinautolu.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy troops, and many people with thee.
Te ke ʻalu hake, pea hoko mai ʻo hangē ko e taufa matangi, pea te ke hangē ko e ʻao ke ʻufiʻufi ʻae fonua, ʻa koe, mo hoʻo ngaahi matatau, mo e kakai tokolahi ʻe fakataha mo koe.”
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua hoko foki ʻo pehē, “ʻI he kuonga pe ko ia, ʻe hū ʻae ngaahi meʻa ki ho loto, pea te ke fakakaukau ai ki ha ngāue kovi:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
Pea te ke lea ʻo pehē, Te u ʻalu hake ki he fonua ʻoe ngaahi kolo ʻoku ʻikai ʻāʻi; te u ʻalu kiate kinautolu ʻoku mālōlō, mo nofo fiemālie, ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo, ʻoku ʻikai hanau ʻā, pe ha songo, pe ha matapā,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thy hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
Koeʻuhi ke u vete ia, mo maʻu ha koloa; ke ʻai hoku nima ki he ngaahi potu lala kuo fakakakai, pea mo e kakai ʻaia kuo tānaki mei he ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻakinautolu kuo maʻu ʻae fanga manu mo e koloa, pea ʻoku nau nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fonua.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young lions, shall say to thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
ʻE pehē mai kiate koe ʻe Sipa, mo Tetani, mo e kau fakatau ʻi Tasisi, mo e fanga laione mui kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai, ‘Kuo ke haʻu koe ke fai ha vete? Kuo ke fakataha hoʻo kakai ke maʻu mālohi ha koloa? Ke fetuku mo ʻave ha siliva mo ha koula, ke ʻave ʻae fanga manu mo e koloa, pea ke ʻave mo e meʻa lahi ʻaupito?’”
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
Ko ia, foha ʻoe tangata, kikite, pea ke pehē kia Koki, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻilo ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe nofo fiemālie ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
Pea te ke haʻu mei ho potu ʻi he feituʻu tokelau, ʻa koe, mo e kakai tokolahi ʻe fakataha mo koe, ko e kau heka hoosi kotoa pē ʻakinautolu, ko e fuʻu tokolahi ʻaupito, pea ko e kau tau mālohi:
16 And thou shalt come against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
Pea te ke hoko hake ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli, ʻo hangē ko e ʻao ke ʻufiʻufi ʻae fonua; ʻe hoko ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho fakamui, pea te u ʻomi koe ke tauʻi ʻa hoku fonua, koeʻuhi ke ʻiloʻi au ʻe he hiteni, ʻoka fakaongoongoleleiʻi au ʻe koe, ʻE Koki, ʻi honau ʻao.
17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken of old by my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ko koe ia ʻaia naʻaku lea ki ai ʻi muʻa ʻi heʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻakinautolu naʻe kikite ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ki ha ngaahi taʻu lahi, ʻo pehē, Te u ʻomi koe ke tauʻi ʻakinautolu.
18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē foki ʻi he kuonga pe ko ia, ʻe haʻu ʻa Koki ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli ke tauʻi ia, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻe ʻalu hake foki ʻae houhau ʻi hoku fofonga.
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
He kuo u lea ʻi heʻeku fuaʻa, pea mo e kakaha ʻo hoku tuputāmaki, Ko e moʻoni ʻe ai ʻae ngalulu fakamanavahē ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho ko ia;
20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be overturned, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
Ko ia ʻe tetetete ai ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae ngaahi ika ʻoe tahi, mo e fanga manupuna ʻoe langi, ʻae fanga manu ʻoe vao, mo e meʻa totolo kotoa pē, ʻoku ngaolo ʻi he funga ʻo māmani, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻo māmani, pea ʻe holoki hifo ʻae ngaahi moʻunga, pea ʻe holo mo e ngaahi potu lilifa, pea ʻe hinga ki lalo ki he kelekele ʻae ngaahi ʻā kotoa pē.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
Pea te u ui mai ʻae heletā kiate ia, ʻi hoku ngaahi moʻunga kotoa pē, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: ʻe tuʻu taki taha ʻae tangata mo ʻene heletā ke tauʻi ʻa hono tokoua.
22 And I will enter into judgment against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his troops, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Pea te u fai mo ia ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha mo e lilingi toto; pea te u fakaʻauha kiate ia, mo ʻene ngaahi matatau, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku fakataha mo ia, ko e lovai fakamanavahē, mo e ʻuha maka lalahi, mo e afi, mo e sulifa.
23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
ʻE pehē ʻa ʻeku fakaongoongoleleiʻi au ʻeau pe, mo hoku fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi; pea ʻe ʻiloʻi au ʻe he mata ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga lahi, pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
