Selemaia 43

1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kuo fakaʻosi ʻe Selemaia ʻene lea ʻaki ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe fekau ai ia ʻe Sihova ko honau ʻOtua kiate kinautolu, ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē,

It happened that, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking to all the people all the words of the LORD their God, with which the LORD their God had sent him to them, even all these words,

2 Pea toki lea ʻe ʻAsalia ko e foha ʻo Hosaia, mo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo e kau tangata fielahi kotoa pē, ʻo pehē kia Selemaia, “ʻOku ke lea loi: naʻe ʻikai fekau ko e ʻe Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua ke lea pehē, ‘ʻOua naʻa ʻalu ki ʻIsipite ke ʻāunofo ki ai:’

then spoke Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying to Jeremiah, "You speak falsely. The LORD our God has not sent you to say, 'You shall not go into Egypt to live there';

3 Ka ko Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia kuo ne ueʻi koe ke fai kiate kimautolu, koeʻuhi ke tukuange ʻakimautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, ke nau tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu, pea ʻave ʻakimautolu ko e kau pōpula ki Papilone.”

but Baruch the son of Neriah sets you on against us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they may put us to death, and carry us away captive to Babylon."

4 Pea ko Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, mo e houʻeikitau kotoa pē, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē, naʻe ʻikai te nau talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova, ke nofo ʻi he fonua ko Siuta.

So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, did not obey the voice of the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah.

5 Ka naʻe ʻave ʻe Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo e houʻeikitau kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kuo liliu mei he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, naʻe kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai, ke nofo ʻi he fonua ʻo Siuta;

But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, who were returned from all the nations where they had been driven, to live in the land of Judah;

6 Ko e tangata, mo e fefine, mo e fānau, pea mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi, pea mo e tangata taki taha kuo tuku ʻe Nepusaatani ko e ʻeikitau kia Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, mo Selemaia ko e palōfita, pea mo Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia,

the men, and the women, and the children, and the king's daughters, and every person who Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan; and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah;

7 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite: he naʻe ʻikai te nau talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova: pea naʻa nau aʻu ki Tapanesi.

and they came into the land of Egypt; for they did not obey the voice of the LORD: and they came to Tahpanhes.

8 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia ʻi Tapanesi, ʻo pehē.

Then came the word of the LORD to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

9 “ʻAve ʻae ngaahi maka lalahi ʻi ho nima pea fakafufū ia ʻi he ʻumea ʻi he taʻoʻanga ʻumea, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he kau hala ʻi he fale ʻo Felo ʻi Tapanesi, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau tangata ʻa Siuta;

"Take great stones in your hand, and hide them in mortar in the brick work, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;

10 Pea ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; Vakai, te u fekau pea ʻomi ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea te u fokotuʻu hono nofoʻanga fakaʻeiʻeiki ki he ngaahi maka ni ʻaia kuo u fakafufū: pea te ne fofola ki ai ʻa hono fale fehikitaki fakaʻeiʻeiki.

and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Look, I will send and take Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne on these stones that I have hidden; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.

11 Pea ʻoka hau ia te ne taaʻi ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea ko kinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he mate te nau mate; pea ko kinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he pōpula ʻe tukuange ki he pōpula; pea ko kinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he heletā ki he heletā.

He shall come, and shall strike the land of Egypt; such as are for death shall be put to death, and such as are for captivity to captivity, and such as are for the sword to the sword.

12 Pea te u tutu ʻae afi ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua ʻo ʻIsipite; pea ʻe vela ai ʻakinautolu, pea te ne ʻave fakapōpula ʻakinautolu: pea te ne fakakofuʻaki ia ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻai ʻe ha tauhimanu ʻa hono kofu; pea te ne ʻalu mei ai ʻi he fiemālie.

I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captive: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd puts on his garment; and he shall go forth from there in peace.

13 Pea te ne maumauʻi foki ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻo Pete-Semesi ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite; pea ʻe tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻae ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite.’”

He shall also break the pillars of Beth Shemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of Egypt shall he burn with fire."'"
