Ἠσαΐας 18

1 οὐαὶ γῆς πλοίων πτέρυγες ἐπέκεινα ποταμῶν Αἰθιοπίας

‌ʻE ʻa koe! Ko e fonua ʻoku lolofa ai ʻae kapakau, ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu kituʻa ʻi he vaitafe ʻo ʻItiopea:

2 ὁ ἀποστέλλων ἐν θαλάσσῃ ὅμηρα καὶ ἐπιστολὰς βυβλίνας ἐπάνω τοῦ ὕδατος πορεύσονται γὰρ ἄγγελοι κοῦφοι πρὸς ἔθνος μετέωρον καὶ ξένον λαὸν καὶ χαλεπόν τίς αὐτοῦ ἐπέκεινα ἔθνος ἀνέλπιστον καὶ καταπεπατημένον νῦν οἱ ποταμοὶ τῆς γῆς

‌ʻA koe ʻoku kouna atu ʻene kau talafekau ʻi he tahi, ʻi he ngaahi vaka papailusi ʻi he fukahi vai, ʻo pehē, ʻAlu, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau talafekau veʻe vave, ki he puleʻanga lōloa mo lafalafa, ki he kakai fakamanavahē talu mei honau kamataʻanga ʻo aʻu ki heni; ko e puleʻanga kuo fua ʻaki ʻae afo pea faʻa molomoloki, ʻaia kuo maumau ʻe he ngaahi vaitafe!

3 πάντες ὡς χώρα κατοικουμένη κατοικηθήσεται ἡ χώρα αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ σημεῖον ἀπὸ ὄρους ἀρθῇ ὡς σάλπιγγος φωνὴ ἀκουστὸν ἔσται

‌ʻAkimoutolu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, mo kimoutolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he funga fonua, mou vakai, ʻoka fokotuʻu ʻe ia ha fuka ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga; pea ʻi he ifi ʻe ia ʻae kelea, mou fanongo.

4 ὅτι οὕτως εἶπέν μοι κύριος ἀσφάλεια ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἐμῇ πόλει ὡς φῶς καύματος μεσημβρίας καὶ ὡς νεφέλη δρόσου ἡμέρας ἀμήτου ἔσται

He naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Te u mālōlō, pea te u tokangaʻi hoku fale ʻo hangē ko e mafana hili ʻae ʻuha, pea hangē ko ha ʻao ʻoe hahau ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ututaʻu.”

5 πρὸ τοῦ θερισμοῦ ὅταν συντελεσθῇ ἄνθος καὶ ὄμφαξ ἀνθήσῃ ἄνθος ὀμφακίζουσα καὶ ἀφελεῖ τὰ βοτρύδια τὰ μικρὰ τοῖς δρεπάνοις καὶ τὰς κληματίδας ἀφελεῖ καὶ κατακόψει

‌ʻI he teʻeki ai hoko ʻae ututaʻu, ʻaia ʻoku haohaoa ai hono fua, pea ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ke momoho ʻae kālepi mei hono fisi, te ne fakatou tuʻusi ʻae ngaahi huli ʻaki ʻae hele tuʻusi, pea ʻave mo tuʻusi hifo ʻae ngaahi vaʻa.

6 καὶ καταλείψει ἅμα τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς καὶ συναχθήσεται ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ θηρία τῆς γῆς ἐπ’ αὐτὸν ἥξει

‌ʻE tuku fakataha ia ki he manupuna ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga, pea ki he fanga manu fekai ʻoe kelekele: ko e ngaahi manupuna te nau kai ai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu mafana, pea ʻe kai ai ʻae manu fekai kotoa pē ʻoe kelekele ʻi he faʻahitaʻu momoko.

7 ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀνενεχθήσεται δῶρα κυρίῳ σαβαωθ ἐκ λαοῦ τεθλιμμένου καὶ τετιλμένου καὶ ἀπὸ λαοῦ μεγάλου ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα χρόνον ἔθνος ἐλπίζον καὶ καταπεπατημένον ὅ ἐστιν ἐν μέρει ποταμοῦ τῆς χώρας αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν τόπον οὗ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου σαβαωθ ἐπεκλήθη ὄρος Σιων

ʻI he kuonga ko ia ʻe ʻomi kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻae meʻa foaki mei he fonua lōloa mo lafalafa, pea mei he kakai fakamanavahē talu mei honau tupuʻanga ʻo aʻu mai; ko e puleʻanga kuo fua ʻaki ʻae afo pea faʻa molomoloki, ʻaia kuo maumauʻi ʻe he ngaahi vaitafe; ki he potu ʻoe huafa ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ki he moʻunga ko Saione.”
