Selemaia 14
1 Ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ʻaia ʻoku kau ki he honge,
Quod factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam, de sermonibus siccitatis.
2 “ʻOku mamahi ʻa Siuta, pea ʻoku vaivai hono ngaahi matapā; ʻoku nau ʻai ʻae tauangaʻa koeʻuhi ko e fonua; pea kuo ʻalu hake ʻae tangi ʻo Selūsalema.
Luxit Judæa, et portæ ejus corruerunt, et obscuratæ sunt in terra, et clamor Jerusalem ascendit.
3 Naʻe fekau ʻe he houʻeiki ʻenau fānau iiki ki he vai: kuo nau hoko ki he ngaahi luo, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ai ha vai; kuo nau liliu mo ʻenau ngeʻesi ipu; naʻa nau mā ʻaupito mo puputuʻu, pea fakapulou honau ʻulu.
Majores miserunt minores suos ad aquam: venerunt ad hauriendum. Non invenerunt aquam: reportaverunt vasa sua vacua. Confusi sunt, et afflicti, et operuerunt capita sua.
4 Koeʻuhi naʻe māfaʻafaʻa ʻae kelekele, he naʻe ʻikai ha ʻuha ki he fonua, pea mā ʻae kau tangata keli, ʻonau fakapulou honau ʻulu.
Propter terræ vastitatem, quia non venit pluvia in terram, confusi sunt agricolæ: operuerunt capita sua.
5 ʻIo, naʻe fāʻeleʻi ʻae manu, pea liʻaki hono ʻuhiki ʻi he ngoue, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ha mohuku.
Nam et cerva in agro peperit, et reliquit, quia non erat herba.
6 Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae fanga ʻasi hehengi ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, ʻo folo hifo ʻae matangi ʻo hangē ko e fanga talākoni; naʻe vaivai honau mata, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ha mohuku.
Et onagri steterunt in rupibus; traxerunt ventum quasi dracones: defecerunt oculi eorum, quia non erat herba.
7 ʻE Sihova, ‘Neongo kuo talatalaakiʻi ʻakimautolu ʻemau angahala, ke ke ngāue koe koeʻuhi ko ho huafa: he kuo lahi ʻemau fakaholomui; kuo mau fai kovi kiate koe.
Si iniquitates nostræ responderint nobis, Domine, fac propter nomen tuum: quoniam multæ sunt aversiones nostræ: tibi peccavimus.
8 ʻA koe ko e falalaʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli, ko hono Fakamoʻui ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, ko e hā te ke tatau ai mo e muli ʻi he fonua, pea hangē ko e tangata fononga ʻoku afe atu ke nofo ʻi he pō pe taha?
Exspectatio Israël, salvator ejus in tempore tribulationis, quare quasi colonus futurus es in terra, et quasi viator declinans ad manendum?
9 Ko e hā ʻoku ke hangē ai ko e tangata ʻoku mohe maʻu, ʻo hangē ko e tangata mālohi ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakamoʻui? Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke ʻiate kimautolu, pea ʻoku ui ʻakimautolu ʻi ho huafa; ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ʻakimautolu.’”
quare futurus es velut vir vagus, ut fortis qui non potest salvare? Tu autem in nobis es, Domine, et nomen tuum invocatum est super nos: ne derelinquas nos.
10 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ki he kakai ni, “ʻOku pehē ʻenau fie ʻalu fano pe, naʻe ʻikai te nau taʻofi honau vaʻe, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova; te ne manatu eni ki heʻenau hia, pea ʻaʻahi ki heʻenau ngaahi angahala.”
Hæc dicit Dominus populo huic, qui dilexit movere pedes suos, et non quievit, et Domino non placuit: Nunc recordabitur iniquitatum eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum.
11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻOua naʻa hūfia ʻae kakai ni ke nau lelei.
Et dixit Dominus ad me: Noli orare pro populo isto in bonum.
12 ʻE ʻikai te u fanongo ki heʻenau tangi ʻi heʻenau ʻaukai; pea ʻoka nau ka fai ʻae feilaulau tutu, pe ha feilaulau uite, ʻe ʻikai te u maʻu ʻakinautolu; ka te u fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae heletā, pea mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha.”
Cum jejunaverint, non exaudiam preces eorum, et si obtulerint holocautomata et victimas, non suscipiam ea: quoniam gladio, et fame, et peste consumam eos.
13 Pea naʻaku toki pehē ʻeau. “ʻOiauē! ʻE ʻEiki Sihova! Vakai, ʻoku pehē ʻe he kau palōfita kiate kinautolu, ʻE ʻikai te mou mamata ki he heletā, pe ki he honge; ka te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fiemālie moʻoni ʻi he potu ni.”
Et dixi: A, a, a, Domine Deus: prophetæ dicunt eis: Non videbitis gladium, et fames non erit in vobis: sed pacem veram dabit vobis in loco isto.
14 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻOku kikite loi ʻi hoku huafa ʻae kau palōfita: naʻe ʻikai te u fekau ʻakinautolu, pe tala kiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te u lea kiate kinautolu: kuo nau lea ʻaki ʻae misi loi mo e kikite kākā, mo e meʻa vaʻinga, pea mo e kākā ʻo honau loto.
Et dicit Dominus ad me: Falso prophetæ vaticinantur in nomine meo: non misi eos, et non præcepi eis, neque locutus sum ad eos. Visionem mendacem, et divinationem, et fraudulentiam, et seductionem cordis sui, prophetant vobis.
15 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he kau palōfita ʻoku kikite ʻi hoku huafa, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fekau ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku nau pehē, ʻE ʻikai hoko ʻae heletā mo e honge ki he fonua ni; ʻe fakaʻauha ʻae kau palōfita, ko ia ʻi he heletā pea mo e honge.
Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus de prophetis qui prophetant in nomine meo, quos ego non misi, dicentes: Gladius et fames non erit in terra hac: In gladio et fame consumentur prophetæ illi.
16 Pea ʻe lī ki he ngaahi hala ʻo Selūsalema ʻae kakai ʻoku nau kikite ki ai, koeʻuhi ko e honge pea mo e heletā; pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ke tanu ʻakinautolu, ko kinautolu mo honau ngaahi uaifi, mo honau ngaahi foha, pea mo honau ngaahi ʻofefine: he te u lilingi kiate kinautolu ʻenau angahala.”
Et populi quibus prophetant erunt projecti in viis Jerusalem præ fame et gladio, et non erit qui sepeliat eos: ipsi et uxores eorum, filii et filiæ eorum: et effundam super eos malum suum.
17 Ko ia ke ke fakahā ʻae lea ni kiate kinautolu: “Ke tafe hifo ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō ʻae loʻimata mei hoku mata, pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ia: koeʻuhi kuo maumauʻi ʻae ʻofefine tāupoʻou ʻo hoku kakai ʻaki ʻae maumauʻi lahi, pea mo e tā mamahi ʻaupito.
Et dices ad eos verbum istud: Deducant oculi mei lacrimam per noctem et diem, et non taceant, quoniam contritione magna contrita est virgo filia populi mei, plaga pessima vehementer.
18 Kapau te u ʻalu atu ki he ngoue, ʻoku ou mamata kiate kinautolu naʻe tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā! Pea kapau te u hū ki he kolo, ʻoku ou mamata kiate kinautolu ʻoku mate ʻi he honge! Ka ʻoku ʻalu fano pe ʻi he fonua ʻae palōfita mo e taulaʻeiki, ke fai fakatau, ʻo ʻikai [te nau ]tokanga.”
Si egressus fuero ad agros, ecce occisi gladio: et si introiero in civitatem, ecce attenuati fame. Propheta quoque et sacerdos abierunt in terram quam ignorabant.
19 Kuo ke liʻaki ʻaupito ʻa Siuta? Kuo fakaliliʻa ho laumālie ki Saione? Ko e hā kuo ke taaʻi ai ʻakimautolu, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamoʻui? Naʻa mau ʻamanaki ki he fiemālie, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha lelei; ki he ʻaho fakamoʻui, kae vakai ko e mamahi pe.
Numquid projiciens abjecisti Judam? aut Sion abominata est anima tua? quare ergo percussisti nos ita ut nulla sit sanitas? Exspectavimus pacem, et non est bonum: et tempus curationis, et ecce turbatio.
20 ʻE Sihova, ʻoku mau vete ʻemau angahala, pea mo e hia ʻa ʻemau ngaahi tamai: he kuo mau fai angahala kiate koe.
Cognovimus, Domine, impietates nostras, iniquitates patrum nostrorum, quia peccavimus tibi.
21 ʻOua naʻa ke fakaliliʻa kiate kimautolu, koeʻuhi ko ho huafa, ʻoua naʻa fakaongoongo koviʻi ʻae ʻafioʻanga ʻo ho nāunau: ke ke manatuʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa fakataʻeʻaonga hoʻo fuakava mo kimautolu.
Ne des nos in opprobrium, propter nomen tuum, neque facias nobis contumeliam solii gloriæ tuæ: recordare, ne irritum facias fœdus tuum nobiscum.
22 ʻOku ai ha taha ʻi he ngaahi vaʻinga ʻoe hiteni te ne faʻa fakatō ha ʻuha? Pe faʻa foaki hifo ʻe he ngaahi langi ʻae ʻuha? ʻIkai ko koe ia, ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua? Ko ia te mau ʻamanaki lelei kiate koe: he kuo ke ngaohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.
Numquid sunt in sculptilibus gentium qui pluant? aut cæli possunt dare imbres? nonne tu es Dominus Deus noster, quem exspectavimus? tu enim fecisti omnia hæc.
