Isaiah 40
1 My puple, be ye coumfortid, be ye coumfortid, seith youre Lord God.
ʻOku pehē ʻe homou ʻOtua, “Mou fakafiemālieʻi, mou fakafiemālieʻi ʻa hoku kakai.
2 Speke ye to the herte of Jerusalem, and clepe ye it, for the malice therof is fillid, the wickidnesse therof is foryouun; it hath resseyued of the hond of the Lord double thingis for alle hise synnes.
“Lea fakafiemālie ki Selūsalema, pea kalanga kiate ia, kuo ngata ʻene tau, kuo fakamolemole ʻene hia: he kuo fai ʻae totongi ke liunga ua kiate ia mei he nima ʻo Sihova ʻi heʻene hia kotoa pē.”
3 The vois of a crier in desert, Make ye redi the weie of the Lord, make ye riytful the pathis of oure God in wildirnesse.
Ko e leʻo ʻo ia ʻoku kalanga ʻi he toafa, “Teuteu ʻae hala ʻo Sihova, fakatonutonu ʻae hala lahi ʻi he toafa maʻa hotau ʻOtua.”
4 Ech valey schal be enhaunsid, and ech mounteyn and litil hil schal be maad low; and schrewid thingis schulen be in to streiyt thingis, and scharpe thingis schulen be in to pleyn weies.
ʻE hakeakiʻi ʻae ngaahi luo kotoa pē, pea ʻe holoki ʻae ngaahi moʻunga meʻe tafungofunga kotoa pē: pea ʻe fakatonutonu ʻae pikopiko, pea ʻe fakatokalelei ʻae ngaahi potu ʻoku tokakovi:
5 And the glorie of the Lord schal be schewid, and ech man schal se togidere, that the mouth of the Lord hath spoke.
Pea ʻe fakahā ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova, pea ʻe mamata ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē: he kuo folofola pehē ʻae fofonga ʻo Sihova.”
6 The vois of God, seiynge, Crie thou. And Y seide, What schal Y crie? Ech fleisch is hei, and al the glorie therof is as the flour of the feeld.
Naʻe pehē ʻe he leʻo, “Kalanga.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Ko e hā te u kalanga ʻaki?” “Ko e mohuku ʻae kakano kotoa pē, pea ko e nāunau kotoa pē ʻo ia ʻoku tatau mo e fisi ʻoe ngoue.
7 The hei is dried vp, and the flour felle doun, for the spirit of the Lord bleew therynne.
ʻOku fakaʻaʻau ke mōmoa ʻae mohuku, ʻoku mae ʻae fisiʻiʻakau: koeʻuhi ʻoku angi ki ai ʻae matangi ʻa Sihova: tā ko e moʻoni ko e mohuku ʻae kakai.
8 Verely the puple is hey; the hey is dried vp, and the flour felle doun; but the word of the Lord dwellith with outen ende.
ʻOku fakaʻaʻau ke mōmoa ʻae mohuku, ʻoku mae ʻae fisiʻiʻakau: ka e tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻae folofola ʻa hotau ʻOtua.”
9 Thou that prechist to Sion, stie on an hiy hil; thou that prechist to Jerusalem, enhaunse thi vois in strengthe; enhaunse thou, nyle thou drede; seie thou to the citees of Juda, Lo! youre God.
ʻA koe, ʻoku ʻomi ʻae ongoongolelei ki Saione, ʻalu hake koe ki he moʻunga māʻolunga; ʻa koe, ʻoku ʻomi ʻae ongoongolelei ki Selūsalema, hiki hake ho leʻo ʻi he mālohi; hiki hake ia ʻoua ʻe manavahē; ke ke pehē ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, “Vakai ki homou ʻOtua!”
10 Lo! the Lord God schal come in strengthe, and his arm schal holde lordschipe; lo! his mede is with hym, and his werk is bifore hym.
Vakai, ʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻi he mālohi, pea ʻe pule hono nima moʻona: vakai, ʻoku ʻiate ia hono totongi, pea ʻoku ʻi hono ʻao ʻa ʻene ngāue.
11 As a scheepherd he schal fede his flok, he schal gadere lambreen in his arm, and he schal reise in his bosom; he schal bere scheep `with lomb.
Te ne fafanga ʻene fanga sipi ʻo hangē ko e tauhi: te ne tānaki ʻae fanga lami ʻaki hono nima, pea fua ʻakinautolu ʻi hono fatafata, pea tataki fakafiemālie ʻakinautolu ʻoku feitama.
12 Who mat watris in a fist, and peiside heuenes with a spanne? Who peiside the heuynesse of the erthe with thre fyngris, and weide mounteyns in a weihe, and litle hillis in a balaunce?
Ko hai kuo ne fua ʻae ngaahi vai ʻi hono ʻaofi nima, pea fuofua ʻae langi ʻaki ʻae hanga, pea fakakātoa ʻae efuefu ʻoe fonua ʻi he meʻa fuofua, pea kuo fakamamafa ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻi he meʻa fakamamafa, pea mo e ngaahi tafungofunga ʻi he meʻa fakatatau?
13 Who helpide the Spirit of the Lord, ether who was his councelour, and schewide to hym?
Ko hai kuo ne fakahinohino ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova, pea hoko ko ʻene akonaki ke fakahinohino ia?
14 With whom took he councel, and who lernyde hym, and tauyte hym the path of riytfulnesse, and lernyde hym in kunnyng, and schewyde to him the weie of prudence?
Ko hai naʻa na fakakaukau mo ia, koeʻuhi ke ne fakapotoʻi ia, pe ako kiate ia ʻi he hala ʻoe fakamaau, pe ko hai naʻa ne akonakiʻi ia ʻi he ʻilo, pea fakahā kiate ia ʻae hala ʻoe ʻiloʻilo?
15 Lo! folkis ben as a drope of a boket, and ben arettid as the tunge of a balaunce; lo!
Vakai, ʻoku tatau ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga mo e tulutā ʻoe ipu vai, pea ʻoku lau ia ʻo hangē ko e efuefu iiki ʻoe meʻa fakatatau: vakai, ʻoku ne toʻo hake ʻae ngaahi motu ʻo hangē ko e meʻa siʻi ʻaupito.
16 ylis ben as a litil dust, and the Liban schal not suffice to brenne his sacrifice, and the beestis therof schulen not suffice to brent sacrifice.
Pea ʻoku siʻi ʻa Lepanoni ke tutu, pea ʻoku siʻi ʻae fanga manu ʻi ai ki ha feilaulau tutu.
17 Alle folkis ben so bifore hym, as if thei ben not; and thei ben rettid as no thing and veyn thing to hym.
ʻOku hangē ko e meʻa noa pe ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi hono ʻao; pea ʻoku lau ia kiate ia ko e siʻi hifo ʻi he meʻa noa pe, mo e vaʻinga.
18 To whom therfor maden ye God lijk? ether what ymage schulen ye sette to hym?
Pea te mou fakatatau kia hai ʻae ʻOtua? Pe ko e hā ha fakatātā te mou fakatatau kiate ia?
19 Whether a smyth schal welle togidere an ymage, ether a gold smyth schal figure it in gold, and a worchere in siluer schal diyte it with platis of siluer?
ʻOku haka ʻe he tangata tufunga ha tamapua, pea ko e tufunga koula ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ia ʻaki ʻae koula, pea ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae kahoa fihifihi ʻaki ʻae siliva
20 A wijs crafti man chees a strong tre, and vnable to be rotun; he sekith how he schal ordeyne a symylacre, that schal not be mouyd.
Ko ia ʻoku lahi ʻene masiva pea ʻoku ʻikai haʻane feilaulau, ʻoku ne fili ha ʻakau ʻe ʻikai popo; ʻoku ne kumi kiate ia ha tufunga poto ke fokotuʻu ha tamapua kuo tā ʻaia ʻe ʻikai ueʻi.
21 Whether ye witen not? whether ye herden not? whether it was not teld to you fro the begynnynge? whether ye vndurstoden not the foundementis of erthe?
Kuo taʻeʻilo ʻekimoutolu? Naʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo? ʻIkai kuo fakahā kiate kimoutolu mei he kamataʻanga? ʻIkai kuo mou ʻilo talu mei he ʻai ʻae tuʻunga ʻo māmani?
22 Which sittith on the cumpas of erthe, and the dwelleris therof ben as locustis; which stretchith forth heuenes as nouyt, and spredith abrood tho as a tabernacle to dwelle.
Ko ia ia ʻoku ʻafio ʻi he takatakai ʻo māmani, pea ko e kakai ʻoku nofo ai ʻoku tatau kiate ia mo e fanga heʻe; ko ia ia ʻoku ne fofola ʻae ngaahi langi ʻo hangē ko e puipui, pea folahi ia ʻo hangē ko e fale fehikitaki ke nofo ai:
23 Which yyueth the sercheris of priuytees, as if thei be not, and made the iugis of erthe as a veyn thing.
Ko ia ʻoku ne fakahifo ki lalo ʻae houʻeiki ke ʻikai; ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae kau fakamaau ʻoe fonua ko e vaʻinga.
24 And sotheli whanne the stok of hem is nether plauntid, nether is sowun, nether is rootid in erthe, he bleew sudenli on hem, and thei drieden vp, and a whirle wynd schal take hem awei as stobil.
ʻIo, ʻe ʻikai tō ʻakinautolu; ʻio, ʻe ʻikai tūtuuʻi ʻakinautolu: ʻio, ʻe ʻikai aka ʻi he kelekele honau tefito: pea te ne ifi kiate kinautolu, pea te nau mae, pea ʻe ʻave ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻahiohio ʻo hangē ko e veve.
25 And to what thing `ye han licned me, and han maad euene? seith the hooli.
“ʻOku pehē ʻe he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni, Pea te mou fakatatau au kia hai, pe te u tatau mo hai?
26 Reise youre iyen an hiy, and se ye, who made these thingis of nouyt; which ledith out in noumbre the kniythod of tho, and clepith alle bi name, for the multitude of his strengthe, and stalworthnesse, and vertu; nether o residue thing was.
Hiki hake homou mata ki ʻolunga, pea vakai pe ko hai kuo ne fakatupu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻaia ʻoku ne lau mo taki kituʻa honau tokolahi; ʻoku ne ui ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi honau hingoa ʻi he lahi ʻo hono māfimafi, koeʻuhi ʻoku mālohi ia ʻi he māfimafi, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku taʻehāmai.
27 Whi seist thou, Jacob, and spekist thou, Israel, My weie is hid fro the Lord, and my doom passide fro my God?
Ko e hā ʻoku ke pehē, ʻe Sēkope, pea ke pehē, ʻE ʻIsileli, “Kuo fufū hoku hala meia Sihova, pea kuo taʻetokanga ʻa hoku ʻOtua ki hoku fakamaau?”
28 Whether thou knowist not, ether herdist thou not? God, euerlastynge Lord, that made of nouyt the endis of erthe, schal not faile, nether schal trauele, nether enserchyng of his wisdom is.
“ʻIkai naʻa ke ʻilo? ʻIkai naʻa ke fanongo, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua taʻengata ia, ko e Tupuʻanga ʻoe ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani, ʻoku ʻikai pongia ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai vaivai? ʻOku taʻefaʻaʻiloʻi ʻa ʻene ʻilo.
29 That yyueth vertu to the weeri, and strengthe to hem that ben not, and multiplieth stalworthnesse.
ʻOku ne foaki ʻae mālohi ki he vaivai; pea kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai haʻanau mālohi ʻoku ne fakatupu ʻae mālohi.
30 Children schulen faile, and schulen trauele, and yonge men schulen falle doun in her sikenesse.
ʻIo ʻe pongia ʻae fānau tupu pea vaivai, pea ʻe hinga ʻaupito mo e kau talavou:
31 But thei that hopen in the Lord, schulen chaunge strengthe, thei schulen take fetheris as eglis; thei schulen renne, and schulen not trauele; thei schulen go, and schulen not faile.
Ka ko kinautolu ʻoku tatali kia Sihova ʻe fakafoʻou honau mālohi; te nau puna hake ʻaki ʻae kapakau ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻikale; te nau lele ka e ʻikai vaivai; pea te nau ʻeveʻeva, kā ʻe ʻikai pongia.”
