Micha Propheta 3
1 Et dixi: Audite, princeps Jacob, et duces domus Israël: numquid non vestrum est scire judicium,
Pea ne u pehē, “ʻOku ou kole, fanongo ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻa Sēkope, pea mo kimoutolu ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli; ʻikai ʻoku ngali mo kimoutolu ke ʻilo ʻae fakamaau?
2 qui odio habetis bonum, et diligitis malum; qui violenter tollitis pelles eorum desuper eis, et carnem eorum desuper ossibus eorum;
ʻAkimoutolu ʻoku fehiʻa ki he lelei, kae manako ki he kovi; ʻaia ʻoku fohi honau kili meiate kinautolu, pea mo honau kakano mei honau ngaahi hui.
3 qui comederunt carnem populi mei, et pellem eorum desuper excoriaverunt, et ossa eorum confregerunt, et conciderunt sicut in lebete, et quasi carnem in medio ollæ?
ʻAkimoutolu ʻoku kai ʻae kakano ʻo hoku kakai foki, pea fohi ʻa honau kili meiate kinautolu; pea ʻoku nau fesiʻi honau ngaahi hui, mo tuʻutuʻu fakaikiiki ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ka teu ki he kulo, pea hangē ko e kakano ʻi he loto kulo.
4 Tunc clamabunt ad Dominum, et non exaudiet eos, et abscondet faciem suam ab eis in tempore illo, sicut nequiter egerunt in adinventionibus suis.
Pea te nau toki tangi kia Sihova, ka ʻe ʻikai te ne tokangaʻi kinautolu: ko e moʻoni ʻe fakafufū ʻe ia ʻa hono fofonga meiate kinautolu ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻenau ngāue kovi ʻi heʻenau ngaahi faianga.”
5 Hæc dicit Dominus super prophetas, qui seducunt populum meum: qui mordent dentibus suis, et prædicant pacem; et si quis non dederit in ore eorum quippiam, sanctificant super eum prælium.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ki he kau palōfita, ʻaia ʻoku fakahēʻi ʻa hoku kakai; ʻakinautolu ʻoku uʻu ʻaki honau nifo, pea kalanga, “Fiemālie;” pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ke ai ki honau ngutu, ʻio, ʻoku nau te u tau kiate ia:
6 Propterea nox vobis pro visione erit, et tenebræ vobis pro divinatione; et occumbet sol super prophetas, et obtenebrabitur super eos dies.
“Ko ia ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae pō, ke ʻoua naʻa mou maʻu ha meʻa hā mai; pea ʻe poʻuli kiate kimoutolu ke ʻoua naʻa mou kikite; pea ʻe tō ʻae laʻā ki he kau palōfita, pea ʻe poʻuli ʻae ʻaho kiate kinautolu.
7 Et confundentur qui vident visiones, et confundentur divini; et operient omnes vultos suos, quia non est responsum Dei.
Pea ʻe toki mā ʻae kau kikite, pea puputuʻu ʻae kau fakaʻilo meʻa: ʻio, ko e moʻoni, te nau ʻufiʻufi kotoa pē honau loungutu; he ʻoku ʻikai ha tali mei he ʻOtua.
8 Verumtamen ego repletus sum fortitudine spiritus Domini, judicio, et virtute, ut annuntiem Jacob scelus suum, et Israël peccatum suum.
Ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou pito ʻi he mālohi mei he Laumālie ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fakamaau, mo e faʻa fai, ke fakahā kia Sēkope ʻene hia, pea ki ʻIsileli ʻa ʻene angahala.
9 Audite hoc, principes domus Jacob, et judices domus Israël, qui abominamini judicium, et omnia recta pervertitis:
ʻOku ou kole, fanongo ki ai, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻi he fale ʻo Sēkope, mo e houʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa ki he fakamaau, mo liliu ʻae meʻa totonu kotoa pē.
10 qui ædificatis Sion in sanguinibus, et Jerusalem in iniquitate.
ʻOku nau langa ʻa Saione ʻaki ʻae toto, mo Selūsalema ʻi he angahala.
11 Principes ejus in muneribus judicabant, et sacerdotes ejus in mercede docebant, et prophetæ ejus in pecunia divinabant: et super Dominum requiescebant, dicentes: Numquid non Dominus in medio nostrum? non venient super nos mala.
Ko e kau mātuʻa ʻi ai ʻoku fakamaau ke maʻu ʻae foaki, pea ko e kau taulaʻeiki ʻo ia ʻoku ako ke maʻu totongi, pea ʻoku kikite ʻae kau palōfita ke maʻu paʻanga; ka ʻoku nau falala kia Sihova, mo pehē, “ʻIkai ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova? ʻE ʻikai ha kovi ʻe hoko kiate kitautolu.”
12 Propter hoc, causa vestri, Sion quasi ager arabitur, et Jerusalem quasi acervus lapidum erit, et mons templi in excelsa silvarum.
Ko ia, koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻe keli ʻa Saione ʻo hangē ko e ngoue, pea ʻe hoko ʻa Selūsalema ko e ngaahi tuʻunga, pea mo e moʻunga ʻoe fale, ke hangē ko e ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻoe vao ʻakau.
