ʻIsikieli 35
1 Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Foha ʻoe tangata, fakahanga ho mata ki he moʻunga ko Seia, pea kikite ki ai,
Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3 Pea ke pehē ki ai, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻE moʻunga ko Seia, Vakai, ko au ʻoku ou tuʻu kiate koe, pea te u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, pea te u ngaohi koe ke lala ʻaupito.
and say to it, Thus says the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and will make you a waste, and you shall be made desolate.
4 Te u fakalala ho ngaahi kolo, pea te ke ʻauha ai, mo ke ʻilo ai ko Sihova au.
And I will cause desolation in your cities, and you shall be desolate, and you shall know that I am the Lord.
5 Koeʻuhi kuo tuʻumaʻu pe ʻa hoʻo fehiʻa, pea kuo ke lilingi ʻae toto ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi he mālohi ʻoe heletā ʻi he ʻaho ʻo honau tuʻutāmaki, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ne fakakakato ai ʻenau hia:
Because you have been a perpetual enemy, and have laid wait craftily for the house of Israel, with the hand of enemies with a sword, in the time of injustice, at the last:
6 Ko ia, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, Ko au ʻoku ou moʻui, pea te u teuteu koe ki he lilingi toto, pea ʻe tuli koe ʻe he toto: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ke fehiʻa ki he toto pea ko e moʻoni ʻe tuli koe ʻe he toto.
Therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, verily you have sinned even to blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.
7 ʻE pehē ʻa ʻeku ngaohi ʻae moʻunga ko Seia ke lala ʻaupito, pea te u motuhi mei ai ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku feʻaluʻaki ai.
And I will make mount Seir a waste, and desolate, and I will destroy from off it men and cattle:
8 Pea te u ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae kakai tāmateʻi ʻa hono ngaahi moʻunga: ʻe tō hifo ʻakinautolu ʻoku tāmate ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻi ho ngaahi tafungofunga, mo e ngaahi teleʻa, pea ʻi ho ngaahi vaitafe.
and I will fill your hills and your valleys with slain men, and in all your plains there shall fall in you men slain with the sword.
9 Te u ngaohi koe ke lala maʻuaipē, pea ʻe ʻikai toe kakai ho ngaahi kolo; pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.
I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited any more: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
10 Koeʻuhi kuo ke pehē ʻe koe, Ko e ongo puleʻanga na, mo e ongo fonua na ʻe ʻaʻaku pe ia, pea te mau maʻu ia; ka ko eni naʻe ʻi ai ʻa Sihova:
Because you said, The two nations and the two countries shall be mine, and I shall inherit them; whereas the Lord is there:
11 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko au ʻoku ou moʻui, pea te u fai moʻoni ʻo fakatatau ki hoʻo ʻita, pea tatau mo hoʻo meheka, ʻaia kuo ke fai ʻi hoʻo fehiʻa kiate kinautolu; pea te u fakaʻilo au kiate kinautolu ʻo kau ka fai ʻae fakamaau kiate koe.
therefore, [as] I live, says the Lord, I will even deal with you according to your enmity, and I will be made known to you when I shall judge you:
12 Pea te ke ʻilo ko Sihova au, kuo u fanongo ki he ngaahi lea kovi ʻaia kuo ke fai ki he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Kuo fakalala ia, kuo foaki mai ke tau fakaʻauha ia.
and you shall know that I am the Lord. I have heard the voice of your blasphemies, whereas you have said, The desert mountains of Israel are given to us for food;
13 Kuo pehē ʻa hoʻomou polepole kiate au, pea kuo mou fakalahi hoʻomou lea kiate au: kuo u fanongo au ki ai.”
and you have spoken swelling words against me with your mouth: I have heard [them].
14 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: “ʻOka fiefia ʻa māmani kotoa pē, te u ngaohi koe ke lala.
Thus says the Lord; When all the earth is rejoicing, I will make you desert.
15 Hangē naʻa ke fiefia koe ki he tofiʻa ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ne lala ia, ʻe pehē pe ʻa ʻeku fai kiate koe: te ke lala koe, ʻe moʻunga ʻo Seia, pea mo ʻItomi kotoa pē, ʻio, ʻaia kotoa pē: pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
You shall be desert, O mount Seir, and all Idumea; and it shall be utterly consumed: and you shall know that I am the Lord their God.
