Selemaia 21
1 Ko e folofola naʻe hoko kia Selemaia meia Sihova, ʻi he fekau kiate ia ʻe he tuʻi ko Setikia ʻa Pasuli ko e foha ʻo Malikia, mo Sefania ko e foha ʻo Māseia ko e taulaʻeiki, ʻo pehē,
Verbum quod factum est ad Jeremiam a Domino, quando misit ad eum rex Sedecias Phassur filium Melchiæ, et Sophoniam filium Maasiæ sacerdotem, dicens:
2 “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke hūfia ʻakimautolu kia Sihova; he ʻoku teu tau kiate kimautolu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone; heiʻilo ʻe fai ʻe Sihova kiate kitautolu ʻo hangē ko ʻene ngaahi ngāue fakaofo kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻalu atu ʻiate kitautolu.”
Interroga pro nobis Dominum, quia Nabuchodonosor, rex Babylonis, præliatur adversum nos: si forte faciat Dominus nobiscum secundum omnia mirabilia sua, et recedat a nobis.
3 Pea naʻe toki lea ʻa Selemaia kiate kinautolu, Te mou lea pehē kia Setikia:
Et dixit Jeremias ad eos: Sic dicetis Sedeciæ:
4 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Vakai, te u fakatafoki ʻae ngaahi meʻa tau ʻoku ʻi homou nima, ʻaia ʻoku mou tau ʻaki ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo e kau Kalitia, ʻakinautolu ʻoku tauʻi ʻakimoutolu mei tuaʻā, pea te u fakataha ʻakinautolu ki loto kolo ni.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Ecce ego convertam vasa belli quæ in manibus vestris sunt, et quibus vos pugnatis adversum regem Babylonis et Chaldæos qui obsident vos in circuitu murorum: et congregabo ea in medio civitatis hujus.
5 Pea ko au te u tauʻi kimoutolu ʻaki ʻae nima mafao atu pea mo e nima mālohi, ʻio, ʻi he ʻita, pea mo e houhau kakaha, pea mo e tuputāmaki lahi.
Et debellabo ego vos in manu extenta, et in brachio forti, et in furore, et in indignatione, et in ira grandi.
6 Pea te u taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻoe kolo ni, ko e tangata mo e manu: pea te nau mate ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha.
Et percutiam habitatores civitatis hujus: homines et bestiæ pestilentia magna morientur.
7 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Hili ia te u tukuange ʻa Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea mo e kakai, pea mo kinautolu ʻi he kolo kuo hao mei he mahaki fakaʻauha, mo e heletā, pea mo e honge, ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea ki he nima ʻo honau ngaahi fili, pea ki honau nima ʻoku kumi ʻenau moʻui: pea te nau taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā: ʻe ʻikai te ne ʻofa kiate kinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamoʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fai ʻaloʻofa.”
Et post hæc, ait Dominus, dabo Sedeciam regem Juda, et servos ejus, et populum ejus, et qui derelicti sunt in civitate hac a peste, et gladio, et fame, in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis, et in manu inimicorum eorum, et in manu quærentium animam eorum: et percutiet eos in ore gladii, et non flectetur, neque parcet, nec miserebitur.
8 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ke ke pehē ki he kakai ni, “Vakai ʻoku tuku ʻi homou ʻao ʻae hala ki he moʻui, pea mo e hala ki he mate.
Et ad populum hunc dices: Hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce ego do coram vobis viam vitæ, et viam mortis.
9 Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he kolo ni te ne mate ʻi he heletā, pea ʻi he honge, pea ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha: ka ko ia ʻoku ʻalu kituʻa ʻā ʻo hola ki he kau Kalitia, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kāpui ʻakimoutolu, te ne moʻui, pea ʻe ʻiate ia ʻene moʻui ʻo hangē ko e koloa.
Qui habitaverit in urbe hac morietur gladio, et fame, et peste: qui autem egressus fuerit, et transfugerit ad Chaldæos qui obsident vos, vivet, et erit ei anima sua quasi spolium.
10 He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, kuo u hanga ki he kolo ni, ke fakahoko ki ai ʻae kovi, kae ʻikai ko e lelei: ʻe tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi.”
Posui enim faciem meam super civitatem hanc in malum, et non in bonum, ait Dominus: in manu regis Babylonis dabitur, et exuret eam igni.
11 Pea ko e meʻa ʻoku kau ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta, Mou fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova.
Et domui regis Juda: [Audite verba Domini,
12 ʻE fale ʻo Tevita, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; Fai fakatoʻotoʻo ʻae fakamaau, pea fakamoʻui ia kuo fakamālohia mei he nima ʻoe fakamālohi, telia naʻa ʻalu atu ʻa ʻeku houhau kakaha ʻo hangē ko e afi ʻo vela, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe faʻa fuʻifuʻi ia, koeʻuhi ko e kovi ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga.
domus David. Hæc dicit Dominus: Judicate mane judicium, et eruite vi oppressum de manu calumniantis, ne forte egrediatur ut ignis indignatio mea, et succendatur, et non sit qui extinguat, propter malitiam studiorum vestrorum.
13 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku ou fai mo koe, ʻa koe ʻoku ke nofo ʻi he teleʻa, pea mo e maka ʻi he toafa; ʻakimoutolu ʻoku pehē, ko hai ʻe tauʻi ʻakimautolu? Pe ko hai ʻe hū ki homau nofoʻanga?”
Ecce ego ad te, habitatricem vallis solidæ atque campestris, ait Dominus: qui dicitis: Quis percutiet nos? et quis ingredietur domos nostras?
14 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te u tautea kiate kimoutolu ʻo tatau mo e fua ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga; pea te u tutu ʻae afi ʻi hono vao ʻakau, pea te ne fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku takatakai ia.”
Et visitabo super vos juxta fructum studiorum vestrorum, dicit Dominus: et succendam ignem in saltu ejus, et devorabit omnia in circuitu ejus.]
