Ezekiel 28

1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

2 'Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thy heart hath been high, And thou dost say: A god I [am], The habitation of God I have inhabited, In the heart of the seas, And thou [art] man, and not God, And thou givest out thy heart as the heart of God,

“Foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke lea ki he tuʻi ʻo Taia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Koeʻuhi kuo hiki hake ho loto, pea kuo ke pehē, ‘Ko e ʻotua au,’ ʻoku ou nofo ʻi he nofoʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he loto tahi; ka ko e tangata pe ʻa koe, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻOtua, neongo hoʻo ʻai ho loto ke ke hangē ko e ʻOtua:

3 Lo, thou [art] wiser than Daniel, No hidden thing have they concealed from thee.

Vakai, ʻoku ke poto hake ʻia Taniela; ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa lilo te nau faʻa fufū meiate koe:

4 By thy wisdom and by thine understanding Thou hast made for thee wealth, And makest gold and silver in thy treasuries.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo poto mo hoʻo faʻa ʻilo, kuo ke maʻu ʻe koe ʻae koloa lahi, pea kuo ke tānaki ʻae koula mo e siliva, ki he tukuʻanga koloa:

5 By the abundance of thy wisdom, Through thy merchandise, Thou hast multiplied thy wealth, And high is thy heart through thy wealth.

Ko e meʻa ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo poto, pea mo hoʻo faʻa fakatau, kuo ke fakalahi ai ʻa hoʻo koloa, pea kuo hiki hake ho loto koeʻuhi ko hoʻo koloaʻia.

6 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy giving out thy heart as the heart of God,

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua koeʻuhi kuo ke ʻai ho loto ke ke hangē ko ha ʻOtua;

7 Therefore, lo, I am bringing in against thee strangers, The terrible of the nations, And they have drawn out their swords Against the beauty of thy wisdom, And they have pierced thy brightness.

Vakai, ko ia te u ʻomi ai kiate koe ʻae kau muli, ʻae kau mālohi mei he ngaahi puleʻanga: pea te nau toho ʻenau heletā ki he toulekeleka ʻo hoʻo poto, pea te nau fakaʻuliʻi hoʻo ngingila.

8 To destruction they bring thee down, Thou diest by the deaths of the wounded, in the heart of the seas.

Te nau fakahifo koe ki lalo ki he luo, pea te ke mate ʻi he mateʻanga ʻonautolu ʻoku mate tāmateʻi ʻi loto tahi.

9 Dost thou really say, 'I [am] God,' Before him who is slaying thee? And thou [art] man, and not God, In the hand of him who is piercing thee.

‌ʻIkai te ke pehē pe ʻi he ʻao ʻo ia te ne tāmateʻi koe, Ko e ʻOtua au? Ka ko e tangata pe koe, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻOtua, ʻi he nima ʻo ia te ne tāmateʻi koe.

10 The deaths of the uncircumcised thou diest, By the hand of strangers, for I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

Te ke mate ʻi he mateʻanga ʻo ha taha taʻekamu, ʻi he nima ʻoe kau muli: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ko au ia, kuo lea ki ai.”

11 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

12 'Son of man, lift up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, And thou hast said to him: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Thou art sealing up a measurement, Full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

“Foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko e tuʻi ʻo Taia, pea ke pehē ki ai, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; kuo ke ngaohi ho fakatātā, ʻi he poto, mo e toulekeleka haohaoa.

13 In Eden, the garden of God, thou hast been, Every precious stone thy covering, Ruby, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, emerald, and carbuncle, and gold, The workmanship of thy tabrets, and of thy pipes, In thee in the day of thy being produced, have been prepared.

Kuo ke ʻi ʻIteni ko e ngoue ʻae ʻOtua naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae maka koloa kotoa pē, ʻae satiose, mo e topasi, mo e taiamoni, mo e pelili, mo e onikisi, mo e sasipa, mo e safaia, mo e ʻemalata, mo e kaponika, pea mo e koula: ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fanauʻi ai koe, naʻe teuteu ʻae teunga ʻo hoʻo ngaahi meʻatatangi mo hoʻo ngaahi meʻaifi ʻiate koe.

14 Thou [art] an anointed cherub who is covering, And I have set thee in the holy mount, God thou hast been, In the midst of stones of fire thou hast walked up and down.

‌ʻOku ke hangē koe ko e Selupi ʻoku fakamalumalu mei ʻolunga; kuo u ʻai koe ʻeau ke ke pehē: naʻa ke ʻi he moʻunga tapu ʻoe ʻOtua; kuo ke feʻaluʻaki ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi maka afi.

15 Perfect [art] thou in thy ways, From the day of thy being produced, Till perversity hath been found in thee.

Naʻa ke haohaoa ʻi ho hala mei ho fanauʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻe ʻilo ai ʻiate koe ʻae angahala.

16 By the abundance of thy merchandise They have filled thy midst with violence, And thou dost sin, And I thrust thee from the mount of God, And I destroy thee, O covering cherub, From the midst of the stones of fire.

Ko e meʻa ʻi hono lahi ʻo hoʻo fai fakatau kuo nau fakapito koe ʻi he fakamālohi, pea kuo ke fai hala: ko ia ia te u liʻaki ai koe mei he moʻunga tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ha taha fakalielia: pea te u fakaʻauha koe, ʻa koe ko e selupi ʻoku lolofa mai, mei he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi maka afi.

17 High hath been thy heart, because of thy beauty, Thou hast corrupted thy wisdom because of thy brightness, On the earth I have cast thee, Before kings I have set thee, to look on thee,

Naʻe hiki ho loto ko e meʻa ʻi ho toulekeleka, pea kuo ke maumauʻi hoʻo poto ko e meʻa ʻi ho nāunauʻia: te u lī hifo koe ki he kelekele, te u fakatōkilalo koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi, koeʻuhi ke nau mamata kiate koe.

18 From the abundance of thy iniquity, By the perversity of thy traffic, Thou hast polluted thy sanctuaries, And I bring forth fire from thy midst, It hath devoured thee, And I make thee become ashes on the earth, Before the eyes of all beholding thee.

Kuo ke fakalieliaʻi ho ngaahi fale tapu ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo fai hala, mo e kovi ʻa hoʻo fai fakatau; ko ia te u ʻomi ʻae afi mei loto ʻiate koe, pea te ne fakaʻauha koe, te u liliu koe ko e efuefu ʻi he funga ʻo māmani ʻi he ʻao ʻonautolu kotoa pē ʻoku siofia koe.

19 All knowing thee among the peoples Have been astonished at thee, Wastes thou hast been, and thou art not — to the age.'

‌ʻE ofo kiate koe ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he kakai ʻoku ʻiloʻi koe: te ke hoko ko e meʻa fakailifia, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke kei ʻi ai ʻo taʻengata.”

20 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

21 'Son of man, set thy face unto Zidon, and prophesy concerning it;

“Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata ki Saitone, pea ke kikite ki ai,

22 and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O Zidon, And I have been honoured in thy midst, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My doing in her judgments, And I have been sanctified in her.

Pea ke lea, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, ʻE Saitone, ʻoku ou tuʻu au kiate koe; pea ʻe fakaongoongoleleiʻi au ʻiate koe, pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova, ʻo kau ka fai ʻae fakamaau kiate ia, pea ka fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻiate ia.

23 And I have sent into her pestilence, And blood into her out-places, The wounded hath been judged in her midst, By the sword upon her round about, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.

He te u fekau atu kiate ia ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha, pea ʻe tafe ʻae toto ʻi hono ngaahi hala; pea ʻe tautea ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻi hono lotolotonga, pea mei he potu kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu kuo lavea; pea te nau ʻilo ai ko Sihova au.

24 And there is no more to the house of Israel A pricking brier, and paining thorn, Of all round about them — despising them, And they have known that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.

Pea ʻe ʻikai kei ʻi ai ha tolounua ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ha talaʻi ʻakau fakamamahi ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate ia, ʻakinautolu naʻe manuki kiate ia; pea te nau ʻilo au, ko au ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”

25 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In My gathering the house of Israel, Out of the peoples among whom they were scattered, I have been sanctified in them, Before the eyes of the nations, And they have dwelt on their ground, That I gave to My servant, to Jacob,

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻO kau ka tānaki mai ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli, mei he kakai kuo nau movetevete atu ki ai, pea ka fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, te nau toki nofo ki honau fonua, ʻaia naʻaku foaki ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Sēkope.

26 And they have dwelt on it confidently, And builded houses, and planted vineyards, And dwelt confidently — in My doing judgments, On all those despising them round about, And they have known that I, Jehovah, [am] their God!'

Pea te nau nofo lelei pe ʻi ai, pea te nau langa fale, pea tō ngoue vaine; ʻio, te nau nofo fiemālie, ʻo kau ka fai ʻeau ʻae tautea kiate kinautolu ʻoku manukiʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻi ai; pea te nau ʻilo au, ko Sihova ko honau ʻOtua.
