ʻIsikieli 35
1 Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
Moreover 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 tell it, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and an astonishment.
4 Te u fakalala ho ngaahi kolo, pea te ke ʻauha ai, mo ke ʻilo ai ko Sihova au.
I will lay your cities waste, 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 had a perpetual enmity, and have given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end;
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, "I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you: since you have not hated 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.
Thus will I make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns.
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.
I will fill its mountains with its slain: in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses shall they fall who are 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; 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 have said, 'These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it'; whereas the LORD was 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 do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, 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.
You shall know that I, the LORD, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they have been given us to devour.
13 Kuo pehē ʻa hoʻomou polepole kiate au, pea kuo mou fakalahi hoʻomou lea kiate au: kuo u fanongo au ki ai.”
You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard it."
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 the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
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.”
As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do to you: you shall be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it; and they shall know that I am the LORD."'"
