Isaya 46
1 Beli anasujudu hadi nchi, Nebo anainama; sanamu zao zabebwa na wanyama wa mizigo. Vinyago hivi mnavyobeba kila mahali ni mzigo wa kulemea, mzigo kwa waliochoka.
ʻOku foʻohifo ʻa Peli, pea tulolo ʻa Nipo, naʻe heka ʻi he ngaahi manu ʻae ngaahi tamapua, pea ʻi he fanga pulu: naʻe māfasia hoʻomou ngaahi saliote; ʻi hono fakaheka kuo ongosia ai ʻae manu.
2 Vinyago pamoja na wale wanaovibeba wanainama chini; hiyo miungu haiwezi kuwaokoa watu, wote wanakwenda utumwani pamoja.
ʻOku nau tulolo, ʻoku nau punou fakataha; naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fua ʻae kavenga, ka kuo hoko ʻo pōpula ʻakinautolu.
3 “Nisikilizeni mimi, ee nyumba ya Yakobo, ninyi nyote mliobaki wa nyumba ya Israeli, ninyi ambao nimewategemeza tangu mlipotungwa mimba, nami nimewabeba tangu kuzaliwa kwenu.
“Fanongo kiate au, ʻae fale ʻo Sēkope, pea mo hono toe kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻaku fua mei he fatu, ʻaia ʻoku fua mei he manāva.
4 Hata mpaka wakati wa uzee wenu na mvi, Mimi ndiye, Mimi ndiye nitakayewasaidia ninyi. Nimewahuluku, nami nitawabeba, nitawasaidia ninyi na kuwaokoa.
Pea ʻo aʻu ki hoʻo motuʻa ko au ia; pea ʻo aʻu ki he ʻuluhinā te u fua koe: kuo u ngaohi, pea te u fua ia; ʻio, te u fua, pea te u fakamoʻui.
5 “Mtanilinganisha na nani, au mtanihesabu kuwa sawa na nani? Ni nani mtakayenifananisha naye ili tuweze kulinganishwa?
“Te mou fakatatau au kia hai, pea te u tatau mo hai, ʻio te mou fakatatau au kia hai, koeʻuhi ke mā tatau mo ia?
6 Wengine humwaga dhahabu kutoka kwenye mifuko yao, na kupima fedha kwenye mizani; huajiri mfua dhahabu kutengeneza mungu, kisha huisujudia na kuiabudu.
ʻOku laku ʻae koula mei he kato, pea fakamamafa ʻae siliva ʻi he meʻa fakatatau, pea fakakau ʻae tufunga koula; pea ʻoku ne ngaohi ia ko e ʻotua: ʻoku nau punou hifo, ʻio, ʻoku nau lotu.
7 Huiinua mabegani na kuichukua; huiweka mahali pake, papo hapo ndipo isimamapo. Wala haiwezi kusogea kutoka mahali pale. Ingawa mtu huililia, haimjibu; haiwezi kumwokoa kwenye taabu zake.
ʻOku nau fua ia ʻi he uma, ʻoku nau hapahapai ia, pea fokotuʻu ia ʻi hono potu, pea ʻoku ne tuʻu; pea ʻe ʻikai te ne ʻalu mei hono potu: ʻio, ʻe kalanga ha tokotaha kiate ia, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne tali, pe fakamoʻui ia mei heʻene tuʻutāmaki.
8 “Kumbukeni hili, litieni akilini, liwekeni moyoni, enyi waasi.
“Manatuʻi ʻae meʻa ni, pea fakahā ko e kau tangata ʻakimoutolu: toe manatu ki ai, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau angahala.
9 Kumbukeni mambo yaliyopita, yale ya zamani za kale; mimi ndimi Mungu, wala hakuna mwingine; mimi ndimi Mungu, wala hakuna mwingine aliye kama mimi.
Manatu ki he ngaahi ʻuluaki meʻa ʻi muʻa: he ko au ko e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taha kehe; Ko au ko e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻe tatau mo au,
10 Ni mimi nitangazaye mwisho tangu mwanzo, naam, tangu zamani za kale, mambo ambayo hayajatendeka. Ninasema: Kusudi langu ndilo litakalosimama, nami nitatenda mapenzi yangu yote.
Ke fakahā ʻae ikuʻanga mei he kamataʻanga, pea mei he ngaahi kuonga ʻi muʻa ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku teʻeki ke fai, ʻo pehē, ʻE tuʻumaʻu ʻeku tuʻutuʻuni, pea te u fai ʻeku faʻiteliha kotoa pē:
11 Kutoka mashariki ninaita ndege awindaye; kutoka nchi ya mbali, mtu atakayetimiza kusudi langu. Lile ambalo nimelisema, ndilo nitakalolitimiza; lile nililolipanga, ndilo nitakalolitenda.
ʻO ui ʻae manupuna ʻoku fekai mei he potu hahake, ʻae tangata ʻoku ne fai ki heʻeku fekau mei he fonua mamaʻo: ʻio, kuo u fakahā ia, pea te u fakahoko ia; kuo u tuʻutuʻuni ki ai, pea te u fai ia.
12 Nisikilizeni, ninyi wenye mioyo migumu, ninyi mlio mbali na haki.
Fanongo kiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku loto mālohi, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku mamaʻo mo e māʻoniʻoni:
13 Ninaleta haki yangu karibu, haiko mbali; wala wokovu wangu hautachelewa. Nitawapa Sayuni wokovu, Israeli utukufu wangu.
ʻOku ou ʻomi ke ofi ʻeku māʻoniʻoni; ʻe ʻikai mamaʻo ia, pea mo ʻeku fakamoʻui ʻe ʻikai tatali ia: pea te u tuku ʻae fakamoʻui ʻi Saione, maʻa ʻIsileli ko hoku nāunau.
