< Revelation 13 >

1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Pea ne u tuʻu ʻi he ʻoneʻone ʻoe tahi, pea u mamata ʻoku ʻalu hake mei he tahi ʻae manu fekai, naʻe fitu hono ʻulu pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae nifo ʻe hongofulu, pea naʻe ʻi hono ngaahi nifo ʻae pale ʻe hongofulu, pea ʻi hono ngaahi ʻulu ʻae hingoa ko Taukae ʻOtua.
2 And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Pea ko e manu fekai ʻaia ne u mamata ai, naʻe tatau mo e lēpati, pea ko hono vaʻe naʻe hangē ko e vaʻe ʻo ha pea, pea ko hono ngutu naʻe hangē ko e ngutu ʻo ha laione: pea naʻe ʻatu ki ai ʻe he fuʻu ngata ʻa ʻene mālohi ʻaʻana, mo hono nofoʻanga, mo e pule lahi.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
Pea ne u mamata naʻe hangē kuo lavea ʻo mate hono foʻi ʻulu ʻe taha; ka naʻe toe moʻui pe hono lavea fakamate: pea naʻe fakatumutumu ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻo muimui ʻi he manu fekai.
4 And they worshiped the dragon which gave power to the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who [is] like the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Pea naʻa nau hū ki he fuʻu ngata ʻaia ne ne ʻatu ʻae mālohi ki he manu fekai: ʻonau hū ki he manu fekai, ʻonau pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku tatau mo e manu fekai? Ko hai ʻoku faʻa fai ke tauʻi ia?”
5 And there was given to him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given to him to continue forty [and] two months.
Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻae ngutu ke lea fie lahi, mo taukae ki he ʻOtua; pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae pule ke fai ʻae tau ʻi he māhina ʻe fāngofulu ma ua,
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Pea ne faai hono ngutu ʻi he lea taukae ki he ʻOtua, ke lauʻikovi hono huafa, mo hono fale fehikitaki, mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he langi.
7 And it was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and languages, and nations.
Pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ke ne tauʻi ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni, pea ke ne ikuna ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae pule ki he ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e ngaahi lea, mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Pea ʻe hū kiate ia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai tohi honau hingoa ʻi he tohi ʻoe moʻui ʻoe Lami, ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi talu mei he fakatupu ʻo māmani.
9 If any man hath an ear, let him hear.
Kapau ʻoku telinga ha taha, pea fakafanongo ia.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
Ko ia ʻoku ne tataki ki he pōpula, ʻe moʻua ia ki he pōpula: ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā, ʻoku totonu ke tāmateʻi ʻaki ia ʻae heletā. Ko eni ʻae faʻa kātaki mo e tui ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni.
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke as a dragon.
Pea ne u mamata ki he manu fekai ʻe taha ʻoku ʻalu hake ʻi he fonua; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae nifoʻi ʻulu ʻe ua, naʻe hangē ia ko e lami, pea naʻa ne lea ʻo hangē ha fuʻu ngata.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Pea ʻoku fai ʻe ia ʻae pule kotoa pē ʻoe ʻuluaki manu fekai naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia, ʻo ne fai ke hū ʻa māmani mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ai ki he ʻuluaki manu fekai, ʻi heʻene moʻui ʻa hono lavea. Naʻa ne mei mate ai.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
Pea ʻoku fai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaofo lahi, ʻo ne fai ke ʻalu hifo ʻae afi mei he langi ki he fonua, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by [the means of] those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and lived.
Pea ne kākaaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana ko ia naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae mālohi ke fai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe manu fekai; ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi mamani, ke nau ngaohi ha fakatātā ki he manufekai, ʻaia naʻe lavea ʻi he heletā, kae moʻui pe.
15 And he had power to give life to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ke ne foaki ʻae moʻui ki he fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai, ke lea ai ʻae fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai, pea pule ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻikai te nau hū ki he fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Pea naʻa ne puleʻi kotoa pē, ʻae iiki mo e lalahi, ʻae maʻumeʻa mo e masiva, ʻae tauʻatāina mo e pōpula, ke nau maʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi honau nima toʻomataʻu, pe ʻi honau foʻi laʻē:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save him that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Pea ke ʻoua naʻa fakatau mai pe fakatau atu ʻe ha taha, ka ko ia pe kuo ʻi ai ʻae fakaʻilonga, pe ʻae hingoa ʻoe manu fekai, pe ko e lau ʻo hono hingoa.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] six hundred and sixty six.
Ko eni ʻae poto. Ko ia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ʻilo, ke ne lau hono lau ʻoe manu fekai: he ko e lau ia ʻoe tangata; pea ko hono lau ko e onongeau ma onongofulu ma ono.
