Isaiah 14
1 Because Jehovah loveth Jacob, And hath fixed again on Israel, And given them rest on their own land, And joined hath been the sojourner to them, And they have been admitted to the house of Jacob.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova kia Sēkope, pea te ne fili ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻe fokotuʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi honau fonua: pea ʻe fakataha mo kinautolu ʻae kakai muli, pea te nau pikitai ki he fale ʻo Sēkope.
2 And peoples have taken them, And have brought them in unto their place, And the house of Israel have inherited them, On the land of Jehovah, For men-servants and for maid-servants, And they have been captors of their captors, And have ruled over their exactors.
Pea ʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai, ʻo ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki honau potu: pea ʻe maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he fonua ʻo Sihova ko e kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga: pea te nau fakapōpulaʻi ʻakinautolu, naʻa nau pōpula ki ai; pea te nau puleʻi ʻakinautolu naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻakinautolu.
3 And it hath come to pass, In the day of Jehovah's giving rest to thee, From thy grief, and from thy trouble, And from the sharp bondage, That hath been served upon thee,
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻe foaki kiate koe ʻae mālōlō mei hoʻo mamahi, mo hoʻo manavahē, pea mei he pōpula mamahi ʻaia naʻa mou moʻulaloa ki ai.
4 That thou hast taken up this simile Concerning the king of Babylon, and said, How hath the exactor ceased,
Te ke toʻo hake ʻae lea mamafa ni ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻo pehē, “Hono ʻikai kuo siʻaki ʻaia naʻe pule fakamālohi! hono ʻikai kuo siʻaki ʻae kolo naʻe faʻa kumi koula!
5 Ceased hath the golden one. Broken hath Jehovah the staff of the wicked, The sceptre of rulers.
Kuo fesiʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae tokotoko ʻoe angakovi, pea mo e fakaʻilonga ʻoe kau pule.
6 He who is smiting peoples in wrath, A smiting without intermission, He who is ruling in anger nations, Pursuing without restraint!
Ko ia naʻe taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻi he tuputāmaki ʻaki ʻae tautea taʻetuku, ko ia naʻe puleʻi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻi he ʻita, kuo fakatangaʻi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai taʻofi ʻe ha taha.
7 At rest — quiet hath been all the earth, They have broken forth [into] singing.
ʻOku mālōlō ʻa māmani kotoa pē, pea fiemālie: ʻoku nau kamata hiva fiefia.
8 Even firs have rejoiced over thee, Cedars of Lebanon — [saying]: Since thou hast lain down, The hewer cometh not up against us.
ʻIo, ʻoku fiefia ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ko e paini, pea mo e ngaahi sita ʻo Lepanoni, ʻonau pehē, Talu hoʻo tō ki lalo koe, kuo ʻikai haʻu kiate kimautolu ha tangata taʻanga.
9 Sheol beneath hath been troubled at thee, To meet thy coming in, It is waking up for thee Rephaim, All chiefs ones of earth, It hath raised up from their thrones All kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
ʻOku ngaue ʻa hētesi mei lalo maʻau ke fakafetaulaki kiate koe ʻi ho haʻu: ʻoku ne ueʻi ʻae mate maʻau, ʻio, ʻae kau tuʻu ki muʻa kotoa pē ʻo māmani; kuo ne fokotuʻu mei honau nofoʻanga ʻae ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga. (Sheol h7585)
10 All of them answer and say unto thee, Even thou hast become weak like us! Unto us thou hast become like!
ʻE lea ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻo pehē kiate koe, “Kuo ke hoko ʻo vaivai ʻo hangē ko kimautolu ni? Kuo ke hoko ʻo tatau mo kimautolu ni?”
11 Brought down to Sheol hath been thine excellency, The noise of thy psaltery, Under thee spread out hath been the worm, Yea, covering thee is the worm. (Sheol h7585)
Kuo fakahifo hoʻo laukau ki he faʻitoka, pea mo e longoaʻa ʻo hoʻo ngaahi meʻa lea: kuo fofola ʻi lalo ʻiate koe ʻae fanga kelemutu, pea kafu ʻaki koe ʻae fanga kelemutu. (Sheol h7585)
12 How hast thou fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! Thou hast been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.
“ʻE Lusifā, ko e foha ʻoe pongipongi! Hono ʻikai tō hifo koe mei he langi! Hono ʻikai tuʻusi ki lalo koe ki he kelekele, ʻa koe ne ke fakavaivaiʻi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga!”
13 And thou saidst in thy heart: the heavens I go up, Above stars of God I raise my throne, And I sit in the mount of meeting in the sides of the north.
He naʻa ke pehē ʻi ho loto, “Te u ʻalu hake ki he langi, te u fokotuʻu ke māʻolunga hake ʻa hoku nofoʻanga ʻi he ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe ʻOtua: pea te u nofo ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe fakatahaʻanga, ʻi he ngaahi potu tokelau:
14 I go up above the heights of a thick cloud, I am like to the Most High.
Te u ʻalu hake ke māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi ʻao; te u tatau mo ia ʻoku māʻolunga taha pe.”
“Ka e hifo koe ki lalo ki he faʻitoka, ki he kaokao ʻoe luo. (Sheol h7585)
16 Thy beholders look to thee, to thee they attend, Is this the man causing the earth to tremble, Shaking kingdoms?
Ko kinautolu ʻe mamata kiate koe te nau sio fakamamaʻu kiate koe, pea fakalaulauloto kiate koe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e tangata koā eni naʻe ngaohi ke tetetete ai ʻa māmani, ʻaia naʻe lulululu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga;
17 He hath made the world as a wilderness, And his cities he hath broken down, Of his bound ones he opened not the house.
ʻAia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻa māmani ke hangē ko ha toafa, pea ne fakaʻauha hono ngaahi kolo; ʻaia naʻe ʻikai fakaava ʻae fale ʻo ʻene kau pōpula?’”
18 All kings of nations — all of them, Have lain down in honour, each in his house,
ʻOku takoto ʻi he nāunau ʻae tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻio, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, taki taha ʻi hono fale.
19 And — thou hast been cast out of thy grave, As an abominable branch, raiment of the slain, Thrust through ones of the sword, Going down unto the sons of the pit, As a carcase trodden down.
Ka kuo lī koe mei ho fonualoto ʻo hangē ko e vaʻa fakalielia, pea hangē ko e kofu ʻokinautolu kuo tāmateʻi, ʻaia kuo hokaʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā, ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he ngaahi maka ʻoe luo; pea hangē ko e ʻangaʻanga kuo malamalaki ʻi he lalo vaʻe.
20 Thou art not united with them in burial, For thy land thou hast destroyed, Thy people thou hast slain, Not named to the age is the seed of evil doers.
ʻE ʻikai fai fakataha ho tanu mo kinautolu, koeʻuhi kuo ke fakaʻauha ho fonua, pea tāmateʻi mo hoʻo kakai: ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ongoongolelei ʻae hako ʻoe fai meʻa kovi.
21 Prepare ye for his sons slaughter; Because of the iniquity of their fathers, They rise not, nor have possessed the land, Nor filled the face of the world [with] cities.
Teuʻi ʻae fakapō ki heʻene fānau koeʻuhi ko e hia ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamai; ke ʻoua naʻa nau tuʻu hake, pe maʻu ʻae fonua, pe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae funga ʻo māmani ʻae ngaahi kolo.
22 And I have risen up against them, (The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, ) And have cut off, in reference to Babylon, Name and remnant, and continuator and successor, The affirmation of Jehovah.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Te u tuʻu hake kiate kinautolu, pea tuʻusi mei Papilone ʻae hingoa, mo hono toenga [kakai], mo e foha, pea mo e fānau ʻa hono foha, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
23 And have made it for a possession of a bittern, And ponds of waters, And daubed it with the mire of destruction, The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts!
ʻOku pehē foki ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Te u ngaohi ia ko e potu ʻoe pitani, mo e ngaahi luo vai; pea te u tafi kituʻaniu ia ʻaki ʻae meʻa tafi ʻoe fakaʻauha.”
24 Sworn hath Jehovah of Hosts, saying, 'As I thought — so hath it not been? And as I counselled — it standeth;
Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni ʻe hoko ʻo hangē ko ia kuo u fifili ki ai, pea hangē ko ia kuo u tuʻutuʻuni, ko ia pe ʻe tuʻu maʻu:
25 To break Asshur in My land, And on My mountains I tread him down, And turned from off them hath his yoke, Yea, his burden from off their shoulder turneth aside.
Ke u laiki ʻae tangata ʻAsilia ʻi hoku fonua pea te u malaki hifo ia ʻi hoku ngaahi moʻunga: pea ʻe toki mahuʻi ʻiate kinautolu ʻa ʻene haʻamonga, pea hiki mo ʻene kavenga mei honau uma.
26 This [is] the counsel that is counselled for all the earth, And this [is] the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki māmani kotoa pē: pea ko eni ʻae nima kuo mafao atu ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.”
27 For Jehovah of Hosts hath purposed, And who doth make void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who doth turn it back?'
He kuo finangalo ki ai ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea ko hai te ne taʻofi ia? Pea kuo mafao atu hono nima, pea ko hai te ne fakafoki ia?
28 In the year of the death of king Ahaz was this burden:
ʻI he taʻu naʻe pekia ai ʻae tuʻi ko ʻAhasi naʻe fakahā ʻae tala mamafa ni.
29 Rejoice not thou, Philistia, all of thee, That broken hath been the rod of thy smiter, For from the root of a serpent cometh out a viper, And its fruit [is] a flying saraph.
“ʻOua naʻa ke fiefia, ʻe Filisitia kotoa, koeʻuhi kuo fesiʻi ʻae meʻa tā ʻo ia naʻa ne taaʻi koe: koeʻuhi ʻe tupu mai mei he tefito ʻoe ngata ʻae ngata fekai lahi, pea ko hono fua ʻo ia ko e ngata vela ʻoku puna.
30 And delighted have the first-born of the poor, And the needy in confidence lie down, And I have put to death with famine thy root, And thy remnant it slayeth.
Pea ʻe mākona ʻae ʻuluaki fānau ʻae paea, pea ʻe tokoto ʻi he fiemālie ʻae masiva: pea te u tāmateʻi ho tefito ʻaki ʻae honge, pea te ne taaʻi ho toenga[kakai].
31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city, Melted art thou, Philistia, all of thee, For from the north smoke hath come, And there is none alone in his set places.
Tangi, ʻae matapā, tāngiloa, ʻae kolo; ʻa koe, ko Filisitia kotoa, kuo mole ʻi he manavahē: koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu mei he tokelau ʻae ʻohuafi, pea ʻe ʻikai he ha tokotaha ʻi heʻene ngaahi kautau.
32 And what doth one answer the messengers of a nation? 'That Jehovah hath founded Zion, And in it do the poor of His people trust!'
Pea ko e hā ha lea ʻe tali ʻaki ʻe ha tokotaha ki he kau talafekau mei he puleʻanga? ʻA eni, Kuo langa hake ʻe Sihova ʻa Saione, pea ʻe falala ki ai ʻae kau masiva ʻa hono kakai.”
