< Ezekiel 7 >

1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'And thou, son of man, Thus said the Lord Jehovah to the ground of Israel:
Naʻe hoko mai foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
2 An end, come hath the end on the four corners of the land.
“Ko koe foki ko e foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; Ko e ngataʻanga, ʻio, ko e ngataʻanga kuo hoko mai ki he feituʻu ʻe fā ʻoe fonua.
3 Now [is] the end unto thee, And I have sent Mine anger upon thee, And judged thee according to thy ways, And set against thee all thine abominations.
Ko eni, kuo hoko ʻae ngataʻanga kiate koe, pea te u tuku atu ʻa hoku houhau kiate kimoutolu, pea te u fakamaauʻi koe ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ngaahi faianga, pea te u totongi kiate koe ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia.
4 And no pity on thee hath Mine eye, nor do I spare, For thy ways against thee I do set, And thine abominations are in thy midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
Pea ʻe ʻikai mamae ʻa hoku fofonga, pe te u manavaʻofa: ka te u totongi hoʻo ngaahi hala kiate koe, pea ʻe ʻi loto ʻiate koe hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia: pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.
5 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Evil, a single evil, lo, it hath come.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, Vakai kuo hoko ʻae kovi ki he kovi.
6 An end hath come, come hath the end, It hath waked for thee, lo, it hath come.
Kuo hoko ha ngataʻanga, ʻio, kuo hoko ʻae ngataʻanga; ʻoku ne lamasi ʻaki koe, pea vakai kuo hoko ia.
7 Come hath the morning unto thee, O inhabitant of the land! Come hath the time, near [is] a day of trouble, And not the shouting of mountains.
Kuo hoko ʻae pongipongi kiate koe, ʻa koe ʻoku nofo ʻi he fonua: kuo hoko hono kuonga, kuo ofi ʻae ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko e lea talia mai pe ia mei he ngaahi moʻunga.
8 Now, shortly I pour out My fury on thee, And have completed Mine anger against thee, And judged thee according to thy ways, And set against thee all thine abominations.
Ko eni, ʻoku toetoe siʻi pea te u lilingi atu hoku houhau kiate koe, pea fai ke ʻosi ʻeku houhau kiate koe: pea te u fakamaauʻi koe ʻo fakatatau ki hoʻo ngaahi hala, pea te u totongi koe ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia.
9 And not pity doth Mine eye, nor do I spare, According to thy ways unto thee I give, And thine abominations are in thy midst, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah the smiter.
Pea ʻe ʻikai mamae ʻa hoku mata, pe te u manavaʻofa; te u totongi koe ʻo fakatatau ki ho ngaahi ʻaluʻanga, mo hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia ʻi loto ʻiate koe; pea te mou ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ʻoku tā.”
10 Lo, the day, lo, it hath come, Gone forth hath the morning, Blossomed hath the rod, flourished the pride.
Vakai ki he ʻaho, vakai kuo hoko ia: kuo hokosia ʻae pongipongi; kuo moto ʻae vaʻa, kuo litolito ʻae fielahi.
11 The violence hath risen to a rod of wickedness, There is none of them, nor of their multitude, Nor of their noise, nor is there wailing for them.
Kuo tupu ʻae fakamālohi ko e vaʻa ʻoe fai kovi: ʻe ʻikai ha toe ʻiate kinautolu pe ko ʻenau tokolahi, pe ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻanautolu: pea ʻe ʻikai tēngihia ʻakinautolu.
12 Come hath the time, arrived hath the day, The buyer doth not rejoice, And the seller doth not become a mourner, For wrath [is] unto all its multitude.
Kuo hoko hono kuonga, kuo ofi ʻae ʻaho: ʻoua naʻa fiefia ʻaia ʻoku fakatau mai, pe mamahi ʻaia ʻoku fakatau atu: he kuo nofo ʻae houhau ki hono kakai kotoa pē.
13 For the seller to the sold thing turneth not, And yet among the living [is] their life, For the vision [is] unto all its multitude, It doth not turn back, And none by his iniquity doth strengthen his life.
Neongo ʻae moʻui ʻaʻana ʻoku fakatau ʻe ʻikai foki mai ia ki he meʻa kuo fakatau: he ko e kikite ʻoku kau ki hono kakai kotoa pē ʻe ʻikai foki mai; pea ʻe ʻikai toe taulanga ha taha ʻi he kovi kuo ne fai ʻi heʻene moʻui.
14 They have blown with a trumpet to prepare the whole, And none is going to battle, For My wrath [is] unto all its multitude.
Kuo nau ifi ʻae meʻalea, ʻio, ko e fai ke teuteuʻi: ka ʻoku ʻikai ha niʻihi ʻe ʻalu ki he tau: he ʻoku nofo hoku houhau ki hono kakai.
15 The sword [is] without, And the pestilence and the famine within, He who is in a field by sword dieth, And he who is in a city, Famine and pestilence devour him.
‌ʻOku ʻi tuaʻā ʻae heletā, pea ʻoku ʻi lotoʻā ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha mo e honge ko ia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue ʻe mate ʻi he heletā pea ko ia ʻoku ʻi loto kolo, ʻe keina ia ʻe he mahaki fakaʻauha pea mo e honge.
16 And escaped away have their fugitives, And they have been on the mountains As doves of the valleys, All of them make a noising — each for his iniquity.
Ka ko kinautolu ʻe hao ʻiate kinautolu ʻe hao pe, pea te nau ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo hangē ko e lupe ʻoku tangi, ʻe taki taha tangi ʻi heʻene kovi.
17 All the hands are feeble, and all knees go — waters.
‌ʻE vaivai ʻae nima kotoa pē, pea ʻe tatau mo e vai ʻae tui kotoa pē.
18 And they have girded on sackcloth, And covered them hath trembling, And unto all faces [is] shame, And on all their heads — baldness.
Pea te nau ʻai foki ʻae tauangaʻa, pea ʻe taʻomia ʻakinautolu ʻi he ilifia, pea ʻe mā honau mata kotoa pē, pea ʻe tekefua honau ʻulu kotoa pē.
19 Their silver into out-places they cast, And their gold impurity becometh. Their silver and their gold is not able to deliver them, In a day of the wrath of Jehovah, Their soul they do not satisfy, And their bowels they do not fill, For the stumbling-block of their iniquity it hath been.
Te nau laku ki he hala ʻa ʻenau siliva, pea ʻe hoko ʻenau koula ke tatau mo e meʻa ʻuli: ʻe ʻikai faʻa fakahaofi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻenau siliva mo ʻenau koula ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe houhau ʻo Sihova: ʻe ʻikai fiemālie ai honau laumālie, pe mākona ai honau fatu: he ko e tūkiaʻanga ia ʻo ʻenau hia.
20 As to the beauty of his ornament, For excellency He set it, And the images of their abominations, Their detestable things — they made in it, Therefore I have given it to them for impurity,
Ko e matamatalelei ʻo hono teunga, naʻe ʻai ia mo e nāunau lahi: ka naʻa nau ngaohi mei ai ʻenau ngaahi fakatātā fakalielia mo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa kovi: ko ia kuo u tuku ia ke mamaʻo ʻiate kinautolu.
21 And I have given it into the hand of the strangers for a prey, And to the wicked of the land for a spoil, And they have polluted it.
“Pea te u tuku ia ki he nima ʻoe kakai muli ke maʻu fakakaihaʻa, pea ki he angakovi ʻo māmani ko e meʻa vete; pea te nau fakalieliaʻi ia.
22 And I have turned My face from them, And they have polluted My hidden place, Yea, come into it have destroyers, and polluted it.
Pea te u tafoki hoku fofonga ʻiate kinautolu, pea te nau fakalieliaʻi ʻa hoku potu tapu, koeʻuhi ʻe hū ki ai ʻae kau kaihaʻa ʻo fakakoviʻi ia.
23 Make the chain; for the land Hath been full of bloody judgments, And the city hath been full of violence.
“Ngaohi ha maea ukamea: he ʻoku fonu ʻae fonua ʻi he toto ʻoe angahala, pea pito mo e kolo ʻi he fakamālohi.
24 And I have brought in the wicked of the nations, And they have possessed their houses, And I have caused to cease the excellency of the strong, And polluted have been those sanctifying them.
Ko ia ia te u ʻomi ai ʻae fungani kovi mei he hiteni, pea te nau maʻu honau ngaahi fale: te u ngaohi foki ke ngata ʻae fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻoe kau mālohi; pea ʻe fakaʻuliʻi ʻa honau ngaahi potu tapu.
25 Destruction hath come, And they have sought peace, and there is none.
‌ʻOku haʻu ʻae fakaʻauha; pea te nau kumi ʻae melino, kae ʻikai ia.
26 Mischief on mischief cometh, and report is on report, And they have sought a vision from a prophet, And law doth perish from the priest, And counsel from the elders,
‌ʻE hoko ʻae kovi ki he kovi, mo e ongoongo ki he ongoongo; te nau toki kumi ha kikite mei he palōfita; ka ʻe mole ʻae fono mei he taulaʻeiki mo e fakakaukau mei he kau mātuʻa.
27 The king doth become a mourner, And a prince putteth on desolation, And the hands of the people of the land are troubled, From their own way I deal with them, And with their own judgments I judge them, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
‌ʻE tangi mamahi ʻae tuʻi, pea ʻe kofuʻaki ʻe he houʻeiki ʻae malaʻia pea ʻe puputuʻu ʻae nima ʻoe kakai ʻi he fonua: te u fai kiate kinautolu ke tatau mo ʻenau anga, pea te u fakamaau ke totonu kiate kinautolu; pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.”
