ʻIsaia 26
1 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe hiva ʻaki ʻae hiva ni ʻi he fonua ki Siuta; “ʻOku tau maʻu ʻae kolo mālohi; ʻe tuʻutuʻuni [ʻe he ʻOtua ]ʻae fakamoʻui ki hono ngaahi ʻā mo hono ngaahi puke.
In the day that it will be sung the song this in [the] land of Judah a city of strength [belongs] to us salvation he sets walls and a rampart.
2 Mou toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā, koeʻuhi ke hū ai ʻae puleʻanga māʻoniʻoni ʻaia ʻoku tauhi ʻae moʻoni.
Open [the] gates so it may enter a nation righteous [which] keeps faithfulness.
3 Te ke tauhi ia ʻi he melino haohaoa, ʻaia ʻoku faʻaki hono loto kiate koe: koeʻuhi ʻoku ne falala kiate koe.
An inclination firm you will keep peace - peace for in you [he is] trusting.
4 Mou falala kia Sihova ʻo lauikuonga: he ʻoku ʻi he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻae māfimafi taʻengata.
Trust in Yahweh until perpetuity for [is] Yahweh Yahweh a rock of everlastingness.
5 He ʻoku ne ʻomi ki lalo ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he māʻolunga; ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa ʻae kolo māʻolunga, ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa ia, ʻio, ki he kelekele ʻoku ne ʻomi ia ki he efu.
For he will lay low [the] inhabitants of a high place a town set on high he will bring low it he will bring low it to [the] ground he will make touch it to [the] dust.
6 ʻE malaki hifo ia ʻaki ʻae vaʻe, ʻio, ʻae vaʻe ʻoe paea, pea mo e laka ʻae masiva.”
It will trample it a foot [the] feet of [the] afflicted [the] footsteps of poor [people].
7 Ko e hala ʻoe angatonu ko e māʻoniʻoni ia: ʻa koe, ko e fungani māʻoniʻoni, ʻoku ke fakamamafa ʻae hala ʻoe angatonu.
[the] way Of the righteous [is] level paths O upright [one] [the] track of [the] righteous you make level.
8 ʻIo, kuo mau tatali kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he hala ʻo hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau; ʻoku holi ʻa homau laumālie ki ho huafa, pea ʻi he fakamanatu kiate koe.
Also [the] way of judgments your O Yahweh we have waited for you [is] for name your and for memory your [the] desire of self.
9 Kuo u holi ʻi hoku laumālie kiate koe ʻi he pō; ʻio, te u kumi vave kiate koe ʻaki ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate au: he ka ʻi he fonua ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau, ʻe toki ako ʻae kakai ʻo māmani ki he māʻoniʻoni.
Self my I have desired you in the night also spirit my in inner being my I will seek you for when judgments your [are] to the earth righteousness they learn [the] inhabitants of [the] world.
10 Ke hā ʻae ʻaloʻofa ki he angakovi, ka e ʻikai te ne ako ki he māʻoniʻoni: ʻi he fonua ʻoe angatonu te ne fai kākā, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he māfimafi ʻa Sihova.
He is shown favor [the] wicked not he learns righteousness in a land of straightforwardness he acts unjustly and not he sees [the] majesty of Yahweh.
11 ʻE Sihova, ʻoka hiki hake ho nima, ʻe ʻikai te nau mamata: ka te nau mamata, pea te nau mā koeʻuhi ko e meheka ki hoʻo kakai; ʻio, ʻe ʻauha ʻi he afi ʻa ho ngaahi fili.
O Yahweh it is raised hand your not they behold! they will behold and they may be ashamed [the] zeal of a people also [the] fire of opponents your it will consume them.
12 ʻE Sihova te ke tuʻutuʻuni ʻae fiemālie maʻanautolu: he kuo ke fai ʻe koe ʻa ʻemau ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻiate kimautolu.
O Yahweh you will establish peace for us for also all works our you have done for us.
13 ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, kuo puleʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngaahi ʻeiki kehe: ka e talu mei heni te mau takua ho huafa ʻoʻou.
O Yahweh God our they have ruled over us lords except you only in you we bring to remembrance name your.
14 Kuo nau mate, ʻe ʻikai te nau moʻui; kuo nau pekia, ʻe ʻikai te nau toetuʻu: ko ia kuo ke ʻaʻahi mo fakaʻauhaʻi ʻakinautolu, pea kuo ke fakangata honau fakamanatu kotoa pē.
Dead [ones] not they will live shades not they will rise therefore you have visited and you have destroyed them and you have destroyed all remembrance of them.
15 Kuo ke fakatokolahi ʻae puleʻanga, ʻE Sihova, kuo ke fakatokolahi ʻae puleʻanga: kuo fakaongoleleiʻi koe: kuo ke fakamanatu ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.
You have added to the nation O Yahweh you have added to the nation you have gained glory you have extended all [the] boundaries of [the] land.
16 ʻE Sihova, ʻi he tuʻutāmaki kuo mau ʻaʻahi kiate koe, naʻa mau lilingi ʻae lotu ʻi he hoko hoʻo tautea kiate kimautolu.
O Yahweh in distress people sought you they poured out! a whisper chastening your [was] to them.
17 Hangē ʻoku mamahi ha fefine feitama, ʻoka fakaʻaʻau ke ofi ʻene fāʻele, pea ʻoku tangi ʻi heʻene langā: kuo pehē ʻakimautolu ʻi ho ʻao, ʻE Sihova.
Like a pregnant [woman] [who] she brings near to give birth she is in labor she cries out in labor-pains her so we were because of you O Yahweh.
18 Naʻa mau tuituʻia, naʻa mau mamahi, ʻo hangē kuo mau fanauʻi ʻae matangi; naʻe ʻikai te mau fai ha fakamoʻui ʻi he fonua; pea ʻoku teʻeki ke hinga ʻae kakai ʻo māmani.
We were pregnant we were in labor like we gave birth to wind deliverance not we accomplish [the] earth and not they fall [the] inhabitants of [the] world.
19 ʻE moʻui ʻa hoʻo kakai mate, te nau toetuʻu fakataha mo hoku sino mate ni. Mou ʻa ʻo hiva, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he efu: he ʻoku tatau hoʻo hahau mo e hahau ʻoe mohuku mata, pea ʻe puʻaki ʻe he kelekele ʻae mate.
They will live dead [ones] your corpse my they will rise! awake and shout for joy O [those who] dwell of dust for [will be the] dew of lights dew your and [the] earth [the] shades it will make fall.
20 Haʻu, ʻa hoku kakai, pea hū ki homou ngaahi loki, pea tāpuni ho matapā kiate koe: fufū koe ʻo fuoloa siʻi, kaeʻoua ke mole atu ʻae houhau.
Come O people my go in rooms your and shut (door your *Q(K)*) behind you hide like a little of a moment until (it has passed by *Q(k)*) indignation.
21 He vakai, ʻoku hāʻele ʻa Sihova mei hono potu ke tautea ʻae kakai ʻo māmani koeʻuhi ko ʻenau hia: pea ʻe fakahā ʻe he fonua hono toto, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻufiʻufi hono kakai kuo tāmateʻi.
For there! Yahweh [is] about to go forth from place his to visit [the] iniquity of [the] inhabitant[s] of the earth on him and it will reveal the earth blood its and not it will cover still over slain [ones] its.
