< Selemaia 42 >
1 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻo ofi ʻae houʻeikitau kotoa pē, mo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo Seasania ko e foha ʻo Hosaia, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē mei he iiki ʻo aʻu ki he lalahi,
眾軍長和加利亞的兒子約哈難,並何沙雅的兒子耶撒尼亞以及眾百姓,從最小的到至大的都進前來,
2 Pea naʻa nau lea kia Selemaia ko e palōfita, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, tuku ke lelei ʻi ho ʻao ʻemau kole, pea hūfia ʻakimautolu kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ko kimautolu kotoa pē ʻoku toe; (he ko e toenga tokosiʻi ʻakimautolu ʻoe tokolahi, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku ke mamata ki ai: )
對先知耶利米說:「求你准我們在你面前祈求,為我們這剩下的人禱告耶和華-你的上帝。我們本來眾多,現在剩下的極少,這是你親眼所見的。
3 Koeʻuhi ke fakahā kiate kimautolu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻae hala te mau ʻalu ai, pea mo e meʻa te mau fai.”
願耶和華-你的上帝指示我們所當走的路,所當做的事。」
4 Pea pehē ʻe Selemaia, “Ko e palōfita kiate kinautolu, kuo u fanongo kiate kimoutolu; vakai, te u lotu kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi lea; pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻe tali ai ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu, te u fakahā ia kiate kimoutolu; ʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi ha meʻa meiate kimoutolu.”
先知耶利米對他們說:「我已經聽見你們了,我必照着你們的話禱告耶和華-你們的上帝。耶和華無論回答甚麼,我必都告訴你們,毫不隱瞞。」
5 Pea naʻa nau toki pehē kia Selemaia, “Ke ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova ko e fakamoʻoni angatonu mo moʻoni, kapau ʻe ʻikai te mau fai ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia ʻe fekau ai koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kiate kimautolu.
於是他們對耶利米說:「我們若不照耶和華-你的上帝差遣你來說的一切話行,願耶和華在我們中間作真實誠信的見證。
6 Kapau ʻoku lelei ia pe kovi, te mau talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku mau fekau koe ki ai; koeʻuhi ke lelei ia kiate kimautolu, ʻoka mau ka talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.”
我們現在請你到耶和華-我們的上帝面前,他說的無論是好是歹,我們都必聽從;我們聽從耶和華-我們上帝的話,就可以得福。」
7 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe hongofulu, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia.
過了十天,耶和華的話臨到耶利米。
8 Pea ne ui kia Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, mo e houʻeikitau kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo fai mei he iiki ʻo aʻu ki he lalahi,
他就將加利亞的兒子約哈難和同着他的眾軍長,並眾百姓,從最小的到至大的都叫了來,
9 Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻa mou fekau au ki ai ke ʻatu hoʻomou kole ʻi hono ʻao;
對他們說:「耶和華-以色列的上帝,就是你們請我在他面前為你們祈求的主,如此說:
10 ‘Kapau ʻoku mou loto ke nofo ʻi he fonua ni te u langa ʻakimoutolu pea ʻe ʻikai veteki hifo ʻakimoutolu, te u tō ʻakimoutolu pea ʻe ʻikai taʻaki hake ʻakimoutolu: he ʻoku ou fakatomala ʻi he kovi kuo u fai kiate kimoutolu.
『你們若仍住在這地,我就建立你們,必不拆毀,栽植你們,並不拔出,因我為降與你們的災禍後悔了。
11 Pea ʻoua naʻa manavahē ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻaia ʻoku mou manavahē ki ai;’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘ʻOua naʻa manavahē kiate ia: he ʻoku ou ʻiate kimoutolu ke fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu, pea ke fakahaofi ʻakimoutolu mei hono nima.
不要怕你們所怕的巴比倫王。』」耶和華說:「不要怕他!因為我與你們同在,要拯救你們脫離他的手。
12 Pea te u fakahā ʻeku ngaahi ʻaloʻofa kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻofa kiate kimoutolu, pea pule kiate kimoutolu ke mou liliu ki homou fonua.
我也要使他發憐憫,好憐憫你們,叫你們歸回本地。
13 “‘Pea kapau te mou lea ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te mau nofo ʻi he fonua ni,” pe fai talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
倘若你們說:『我們不住在這地』,以致不聽從耶和華-你們上帝的話,
14 ʻO lea pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai; ka te mau ʻalu ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea ʻe ʻikai te mau mamata ai ki he tau, pe fanongo ki he meʻalea, pe fiekaia, pea te mau nofo ʻi ai:”’
說:『我們不住這地,卻要進入埃及地,在那裏看不見爭戰,聽不見角聲,也不致無食飢餓。我們必住在那裏。』
15 Pea ko ia mou fanongo ni ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ʻae toenga ʻo Siuta; ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘Kapau, ʻoku pau ke hanga atu homou mata ke ʻalu ki ʻIsipite, pea ʻāunofo ʻi ai;
你們所剩下的猶大人哪,現在要聽耶和華的話。萬軍之耶和華-以色列的上帝如此說:『你們若定意要進入埃及,在那裏寄居,
16 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e heletā ʻaia naʻa mou manavahē ki ai, te ne tuli ʻo maʻu ʻakimoutolu ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea mo e honge, ʻaia naʻa mou manavahē ki ai, te ne muimui ʻo ofi kiate kimoutolu ʻi ʻIsipite, pea te mou mate ʻi ai.
你們所懼怕的刀劍在埃及地必追上你們!你們所懼怕的饑荒在埃及要緊緊地跟隨你們!你們必死在那裏!
17 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē ki he kau tangata kotoa pē, ʻe fakahangatonu honau mata ke ʻalu ki ʻIsipite ke ʻāunofo ki ai; te nau mate ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha: pea ʻe ʻikai toe ha tokotaha ʻiate kinautolu, pe hao mei he kovi ʻaia te u fakahoko kiate kinautolu.’
凡定意要進入埃及在那裏寄居的必遭刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫而死,無一人存留,逃脫我所降與他們的災禍。』
18 He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘ʻO hangē kuo lilingi ʻeku tuputāmaki mo hoku houhau ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema; ʻe pehē hono lilingi atu ʻa hoku houhau kiate kimoutolu, ʻoka mou ka ʻalu ki ʻIsipite: pea te mou hoko ko e fehiʻanekina, mo e meʻa fakaofo, mo e fakamalaʻia, pea mo e ongoongo kovi; pea ʻe ʻikai te mou toe mamata ki he potu ni.’
「萬軍之耶和華-以色列的上帝如此說:『我怎樣將我的怒氣和忿怒傾在耶路撒冷的居民身上,你們進入埃及的時候,我也必照樣將我的忿怒傾在你們身上,以致你們令人辱罵、驚駭、咒詛、羞辱,你們不得再見這地方。』
19 “Kuo folofola ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu ʻo pehē, ʻakimoutolu ʻae toenga kakai ʻo Siuta; “ʻOua naʻa mou ʻalu ki ʻIsipite: ka mou ʻilo fakapapau kuo u akonaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ni.
所剩下的猶大人哪,耶和華論到你們說:『不要進入埃及去。』你們要確實地知道我今日警教你們了。
20 He naʻa mou fai kākā ʻi homou loto, ʻi hoʻomou fekau au kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, ‘Hūfia ʻakimautolu kia Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua; pea hangē ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku folofola ʻaki ʻe Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ko ia ʻe fakahā kiate kimautolu, pea te mau fai ia.’
你們行詭詐自害;因為你們請我到耶和華-你們的上帝那裏,說:『求你為我們禱告耶和華-我們上帝,照耶和華-我們的上帝一切所說的告訴我們,我們就必遵行。』
21 Pea kuo u fakahā ia kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ni; ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻaia kuo ne fekau ai au kiate kimoutolu.
我今日將這話告訴你們,耶和華-你們的上帝為你們的事差遣我到你們那裏說的,你們卻一樣沒有聽從。
22 Pea ko ia mou ʻilo fakapapau, te mou mate ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, ʻi he potu ʻaia ʻoku mou holi ke ʻalu ʻo ʻāunofo ai.”
現在你們要確實地知道,你們在所要去寄居之地必遭刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫而死。」
