Jeremiah 3

1 It is seid comunli, If a man forsakith his wijf, and sche go awei fro hym, and be weddid to an othere hosebonde, whether he schal turne ayen more to hir? whether thilke womman schal not be defoulid, and maad vncleene? Forsothe thou hast do fornycacioun with many loueris; netheles turne thou ayen to me, `seith the Lord, and Y schal resseyue thee.

“ʻOku nau pehē, ‘Kapau ʻe tukuange ʻe ha tangata ʻa hono uaifi, pea te ne ʻalu ʻiate ia, pea mali mo e tangata kehe, te ne toe haʻu kiate ia?’ ʻIkai ʻoku ʻuli lahi ai ʻae fonua ko ia? Ka kuo ke fai angahala mo e mamana tokolahi: ka ʻoku kei pehē, ʻe Sihova, Tafoki mai kiate au.

2 Reise thin iyen in to streiyt, and se, where thou art not cast doun. Thou hast setun in weies, abidynge hem as a theef in wildirnesse, and thou hast defoulid the erthe in thi fornicaciouns and in thi malices.

“Hanga hake ho mata ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, pea vakai ha potu naʻe ʻikai te ke angahala ai. Kuo ke tatali kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi hala, ʻo hangē ko e ʻAlepea ʻi he toafa; kuo ke fakaʻuliʻi ʻae fonua ʻi hoʻo angahala, mo hoʻo fai kovi.

3 Wherfor the dropis of reynes weren forbodun, and no late reyn was. The forhed of a womman hoore is maad to thee; thou noldist be aschamed.

Ko ia kuo taʻofi ai ʻae ʻuha tuʻu mo tō, pea naʻe ʻikai ai ʻae ʻuha mui; kuo ke maʻu ʻae foʻi laʻē ʻoe fefine angahala, pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te ke mā ai.

4 Nameli fro this tyme forth clepe thou me, Thou art my fadir, the ledere of my virginyte.

‌ʻE ʻikai te ke tangi pehē mai kiate au ʻo fai mei he ʻaho ni, ‘Ko ʻeku tamai koe, ko hoku fakahinohino ʻi heʻeku siʻi?’

5 Whether thou schalt be wrooth with outen ende, ether schalt contynue in to the ende? Lo! thou hast spoke, and hast do yuels, and thou were myyti. And for wordis of penaunce thou blasfemydist bi wordis of pride; and thou fillidist thin yuel thouyt, and schewidist thi strengthe ayens thi hosebonde, that thou maist do that thing that thou tretidist bi word.

“‘Pea ʻe maʻu ʻa hono houhau ʻo taʻengata?’ Te ne kuku maʻu ia ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga? Vakai, kuo ke lea mo fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi ʻo hangē ko hoʻo faʻa fai.”

6 And the Lord seide to me, in the daies of Josie, the kyng, Whether thou hast seyn what thing the aduersarie, Israel, hath do? Sche yede to hir silf on ech hiy hil, and vndur ech tre ful of boowis, and dide fornycacioun there.

Pea naʻe pehē foki ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi, “Kuo ke mamata ʻaia kuo fai ʻe ʻIsileli fakaholomui? kuo ne ʻalu hake ki he ngaahi moʻunga māʻolunga kotoa pē, pea fai angahala, ʻi he lolo ʻakau mata kotoa pē.

7 And Y seide, whanne sche hadde do alle these thingis, Turne thou ayen to me; and sche turnede not ayen. And hir sistir, Juda, brekere of the lawe,

Pea hili ʻene fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē, naʻaku pehē, ‘Ke ke tafoki kiate au.’ Ka naʻe ʻikai te ne tafoki. Pea naʻe mamata ki ai ʻa hono tokoua kākā ko Siuta.

8 siy, that for the aduersarie, Israel, dide auowtrie, Y hadde left hir, and Y hadde youe to hir a libel of forsakyng; and Juda, hir sistir, brekere of the lawe, dredde not, but also sche yede, and dide fornycacioun.

Pe ne u mamata, ʻi heʻeku tukuange ʻa ʻIsileli fakaholomui pea u ʻatu kiate ia ʻae tohi fakamavae, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ngaahi fai hala, ka naʻe ʻikai ke manavahē ai ʻa hono tokoua kākā ko Siuta, ka naʻa ne toe ʻalu mo ia ʻo fai angahala foki.

9 And bi liytnesse of hir fornicacioun sche defoulide the erthe, and dide auowtrie with a stoon, and with a tree.

Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he ongoongo ʻo ʻene feʻauaki naʻe ʻuliʻi ai ʻae fonua, ʻo ne fai angahala mo e ngaahi maka, pea mo e ngaahi ʻakau.

10 And in alle these thingis hir sistir, Juda, brekere of the lawe, turnede not ayen to me, in al hir herte, but in a leesyng, seith the Lord God.

Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito tafoki kiate au ʻaki hono loto kotoa ʻa hono tokoua kākā ko Siuta, ka naʻa ne kākā ai pe.”

11 And the Lord seide to me, The aduersarie, Israel, hath iustified hir soule, in comparisoun of Juda, brekere of the lawe.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Ko ʻIsileli fakaholomui kuo ne fakatonuhia ʻe ia ia ʻo lahi hake ʻia Siuta kākā.”

12 Go thou, and crye these wordis ayens the north; and thou schalt seie, Thou aduersarie, Israel, turne ayen, seith the Lord, and Y schal not turne awei my face fro you; for Y am hooli, seith the Lord, and Y schal not be wrooth with outen ende.

ʻAlu ʻo fakahā ʻae ngaahi lea ni ki he potu tokelau, ʻo pehē, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Tafoki mai, ʻa koe ko ʻIsileli fakaholomui; pea te u fakaafe ʻeku houhau meiate kimoutolu:’ he, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘ʻOku ou ʻaloʻofa, pea ʻe ʻikai te u fakatolonga taʻengata hoku houhau.

13 Netheles knowe thou thi wickidnesse; for thou hast trespassid ayens thi Lord God, and thou hast spred abrood thi weies to aliens vndur ech tre ful of bowis; and thou herdist not my vois, seith the Lord.

Ke vete pe hoʻo hia, ʻaia kuo ke fai kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea mo e fakaʻuli ʻa hoʻo ʻulungāanga mo e kau muli ʻi he lolo ʻakau mata kotoa pē,’ pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, naʻe ʻikai te mou talangofua ki hoku leʻo.”

14 Be ye conuertid, sones, turnynge ayen, seith the Lord, for Y am youre hosebonde; and Y schal take you oon of a citee, and tweyne of a kynrede, and Y schal lede you in to Sion;

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE fānau fakaholomui tafoki mai; he kuo u fakamaau mo kimoutolu: pea te u toʻo ʻakimoutolu ko e taki tokotaha ʻi ha kolo, pea mo e toko ua ʻi ha faʻahinga, pea te u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki Saione.

15 and Y schal yyue to you scheepherdis after myn herte, and thei schulen feede you with kunnyng and teching.

Pea te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae kau tauhi ʻo hangē ko hoku loto, pea te nau fafanga ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae poto mo e ʻilo.

16 And whanne ye schulen be multiplied, and encreesse in the lond, in tho daies, seith the Lord, thei schulen no more seie, The arke of testament of the Lord; nether it schal stie on the herte, nether thei schulen thenke on it, nether it schal be visitid, nether it schal be ferthere.

Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ʻoka mou ka tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻi he fonua,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE ʻikai te nau toe pehē, ‘Ko e puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova;’ pea ʻe ʻikai hoko ia ki honau loto: pea ʻe ʻikai te nau manatu ki ai pe ʻaʻahi ki ai; pea ʻe ʻikai toe ngaohi ia.

17 In that tyme thei schulen clepe Jerusalem The seete of the Lord, and alle hethene men schulen be gaderid togidere to it, in the name of the Lord, in Jerusalem; and thei schulen not go aftir the schrewidnesse of her worste herte.

Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia te nau ui ʻa Selūsalema ‘Ko e ʻafioʻanga ʻo Sihova;’ pea ʻe fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki ai, ki Selūsalema, ki he huafa ʻo Sihova: pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toe muimui ki he fakakaukau kovi ʻa honau loto.

18 In tho daies the hous of Juda schal go to the hous of Israel; and thei schulen come togidere fro the lond of the north to the lond which Y yaf to youre fadris.

‌ʻE haʻu ʻae fale ʻo Siuta ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻo ʻaʻeva mo e fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pea te na omi fakataha mei he fonua ʻi he tokelau ki he fonua ʻaia kuo u foaki ko e tofiʻa ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.

19 Forsothe Y seide, Hou schal Y sette thee among sones, and schal yyue to thee a desirable lond, a ful cleer eritage of the oostis of hethene men? And Y seide, Thou schalt clepe me fadir, and thou schalt not ceesse to entre aftir me.

“Pea naʻaku pehē, ‘ʻE fēfē ʻeku fakataha koe mo e fonua, pea foaki kiate koe ʻae fonua lelei, mo e tofiʻa lelei ʻoe kakai tokolahi?’ Pea naʻaku pehē, Ke ke ui au, “Ko hoʻo Tamai;” pea ʻe ʻikai te ke tafoki meiate au.”

20 But as if a womman dispisith hir louyere, so the hous of Israel dispiside me, seith the Lord.

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e moʻoni kuo mou fai kākā kiate au, ʻo hangē ko e fefine kākā kuo liʻaki hono husepāniti.”

21 A vois is herd in weies, the weping and yellyng of the sones of Israel; for thei maden wickid her weie, thei foryaten her Lord God.

Naʻe ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, ko e tangi mo e tangilāulau ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: he kuo nau fakakoviʻi honau hala, pea kuo nau fakangalongaloʻi ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua.

22 Be ye conuertid, sones, turnynge ayen, and Y schal heele youre turnyngis awei. Lo! we comen to thee; for thou art oure Lord God.

‌ʻAe fānau fakaholomui, mou tafoki, pea te u fakamoʻui hoʻomou fakaholomui. “Vakai, ʻoku mau haʻu kiate koe; he ko koe ko Sihova ko homau ʻOtua.

23 Verili litil hillis weren lieris, the multitude of mounteyns was fals; verili in oure Lord God is the helthe of Israel.

“Ko e moʻoni ʻoku taʻeʻaonga [ke ʻamanaki ʻae fakamoʻui ]mei he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, pea mei he ngaahi moʻunga: ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻia Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua ʻae fakamoʻui ʻo ʻIsileli.

24 Schenschipe eete the trauel of oure fadris, fro oure yongthe; schenschipe eet the flockis of hem, and the droues of hem, the sones of hem, and the douytris of hem.

He kuo fakaʻauha ʻi he tamapua fakamā ʻae ngāue ʻa ʻetau ngaahi tamai talu ʻemau tupu; ko ʻenau fanga sipi mo e fanga manu, ko honau ngaahi foha, pea mo e ʻofefine.

25 We schulen slepe in oure schenschipe, and oure sclaundir schal hile vs; for we synneden to oure Lord God, bothe we and oure fadris, fro oure yongthe `til to this dai; and we herden not the vois of oure Lord God.

‌ʻOku tau tokoto ʻi he mā, pea ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻakitautolu ʻe he fakamā: koeʻuhi kuo tau fai kovi kia Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ko kitautolu mo ʻetau ngaahi tamai, talu ʻetau kei siʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, pea naʻe ʻikai te tau talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.”
