Selemaia 46

1 Ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kakai Senitaile.

Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet on the nations.

2 Ki ʻIsipite, pea ki he tau ʻa Felo Niko ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi ʻi Kakemisi, ʻaia naʻe taaʻi ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta.

Of Egypt on [the] army of Pharaoh Necho [the] king of Egypt which it was at [the] river of Euphrates at Carchemish which he struck down Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon in [the] year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah.

3 “Mou fekau ke ʻai ʻae fakaū mo e pā, pea fakaofiofi mai ki he tau.

Set in order shield and body shield and draw near for battle.

4 ‌ʻAi ʻae nāunau ki he fanga hoosi, pea mou fakaheka ʻae kau heka hoosi, pea tuʻu mai mo homou tatā tau; fakangingila ʻae ngaahi tao, ʻai ʻae ngaahi kofutau.

Harness the horses and mount the warhorses and take your stand with helmets polish the spears put on the armor.

5 Ko e hā kuo u mamata ai kiate kinautolu, kuo nau manavahē, pea fakaholomui? Kuo tā hifo honau kau mālohi, kuo nau hola vave, pea ʻikai sio ki mui: he naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻae manavahē,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.

Why? have I seen they [will be] terrified [they will be] turned back backwards and warriors their they will be crushed and flight they will flee and not they will turn back terror [will be] from round about [the] utterance of Yahweh.

6 “ʻOua naʻa tuku ke puna atu ʻae veʻe vave, pe hao ʻae tangata mālohi; te nau tūkia, pea tō ki he potu tokelau, ki he veʻe vai ʻo ʻIufaletesi.

May not he flee the swift [one] and may not he escape the warrior north-ward on [the] side of [the] river of Euphrates they will stumble and they will fall.

7 Ko hai eni ʻoku ʻalu hake ʻo hangē ko e vai lahi, ʻoku ngaue hono ngaahi vai, ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe?

Who? [is] this [who] like the River he rises like rivers they surge waters his.

8 ‌ʻOku tuʻu hake ʻa ʻIsipite ʻo hangē ko e vai lahi, pea ʻoku ngaue hono ngaahi vai ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe; pea ʻoku ne pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu hake, pea te u ʻufiʻufi ʻae fonua; pea te u fakaʻauha ʻae kolo mo hono kakai.’

Egypt like the River it rises and like rivers they surge waters and it has said I will rise I will cover [the] earth I will destroy a city and [the] inhabitants in it.

9 Mou ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae fanga hoosi; pea fakamataliliʻi ʻae ngaahi saliote; pea tuku ke ʻalu atu ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻi he tau; ko e kau ʻItiopea mo e kau Lipea, ko kinautolu ʻoku puke ʻae fakaū; pea mo e kau Litia, ʻoku toʻo ʻo teke ʻae kaufana.

Go up O horses and drive madly O chariotry so they may go forth the warriors Cush and Put [who] wield a shield and Ludites [who] wield [those who] bend a bow.

10 He ko e ʻaho eni ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻaho ʻoe houhau koeʻuhi ke ne tautea ʻe ia ki hono ngaahi fili: pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he heletā, pea ʻe mākona ia, pea fakakona ʻaki ia honau toto: he ʻoku maʻu ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻae feilaulau ʻi he potu tokelau ʻi he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.

And the day that [belongs] to [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts a day of vengeance to avenge himself from opponents his and it will devour [the] sword and it will be satisfied and it will take its fill from blood their for a sacrifice of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts [will be] in [the] land of [the] north to [the] river of Euphrates.

11 ‌ʻE taʻahine ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻalu hake ki Kiliati ʻo toʻo mai ʻae lolo faitoʻo: ʻe taʻeʻaonga ʻae ngaahi faitoʻo lahi kiate koe; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ke moʻui.

Go up Gilead and acquire balm O virgin of [the] daughter of Egypt for vanity (you have multiplied *Q(K)*) remedies [is] healing there not for you.

12 Kuo fanongo ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ki hoʻo mā, pea kuo pito ʻae fonua ʻi he tangi: he kuo fepaki ʻae tangata mālohi mo e tangata mālohi, pea kuo na hinga fakatouʻosi.”

They will hear nations shame your and outcry your it will be full the earth for warrior over warrior they will stumble together they will fall both of them.

13 Ko e lea naʻe folofola ʻaki ʻe Sihova kia Selemaia ko e palōfita, ki he haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke taaʻi ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite.

The word which he spoke Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet of [the] coming of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon to strike [the] land of Egypt.

14 “Mou fakahā ʻi ʻIsipite, pea fakaʻilo ʻi Mikitoli, pea fakahā ʻi Nofe mo Tapanesi: mou pehē, ‘Tuʻumaʻu, pea ke teuteu; koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha takatakai ʻiate koe ʻe he heletā.’

Declare in Egypt and make a proclamation in Migdol and make a proclamation in Memphis and in Tahpanhes say take your stand and prepare yourself for it will devour [the] sword around you.

15 Ko e hā kuo tafe atu ai ʻa hoʻo kau mālohi? Naʻe ʻikai te nau tuʻu, koeʻuhi naʻe kapusi ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova.

Why? will he be prostrated mighty [ones] your not he will stand for Yahweh he will push him.

16 Kuo ne fakahingaki ʻae tokolahi, ʻio, kuo nau fetaʻotaʻomi: ko ia naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, ‘Tuʻu pea ke tau toe ʻalu ki hotau kakai, pea ki he fonua naʻe fāʻeleʻi ai ʻakitautolu koeʻuhi ko e heletā ʻae mālohi.’

He will multiply [one who] stumbles also he will fall each to neighbor his and they said arise! - so let us return to people our and to [the] land of kindred our because of [the] sword of the oppressor.

17 Naʻa nau tangi ʻi ai, ‘Ko e longoaʻa pe ʻa Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite; kuo ʻosi ʻae kuonga naʻe tuʻutuʻuni.’

People will call out there Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt [is] a noise he has let pass by the appointed time.

18 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻAia ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ko e moʻoni ʻe hangē ko Tepoa ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pea hangē ko Kameli ʻi heʻene ofi ki tahi, ʻe pehē ʻene haʻu.

[by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of the king [is] Yahweh of hosts name his that like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel at the sea he will come.

19 ‌ʻE ʻofefine ʻoku nofo ʻi ʻIsipite, teuteu koe ke ke ʻalu ki he fakapōpula: koeʻuhi ʻe fakalala ʻa Nofe, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ke ʻosi hano kakai.

Baggage of exile make for yourself O inhabitant[s] [the] daughter of Egypt for Memphis a waste it will become and it will be made desolate from not inhabitant.

20 “ʻOku tatau ʻa ʻIsipite mo e pulu fefine siʻi ʻoku fakaʻofoʻofa ʻaupito, ka ʻoku haʻu ʻae fakaʻauha; ʻoku haʻu ia mei he tokelau.

[is] a heifer Beautifully beautiful Egypt a gadfly from [the] north [is] about to come [is] about to come.

21 Pea ʻoku tatau mo e fanga pulu kuo fangapesi ʻa hono kau tangata totongi; pea kuo nau foki ki mui, pea kuo nau hola fakataha: naʻe ʻikai te nau tuʻu mai, koeʻuhi naʻe hoko mai ʻae ʻaho ʻo hoʻonau tuʻutāmaki, pea mo e ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tautea.

Also hired soldiers its in midst its [are] like calves of [the] stall for also they they will turn they will flee together not they will stand their ground for [the] day of disaster their it will come on them [the] time of punishment their.

22 ‌ʻE ongo hono leʻo ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu ʻae ngata; he te nau ʻalu atu kiate ia mo e kau tau, te nau haʻu kiate ia, mo e ngaahi toki, ʻo hangē ko e kau tā ʻakau.

23 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te nau tuʻusi hifo hono ngaahi vao ʻakau, neongo ʻoku ʻikai faʻa kumi ki ai; koeʻuhi ʻoku nau tokolahi ʻi he fanga heʻe, pea taʻefaʻalaua.

24 ‌ʻE fakamaaʻi ʻae taʻahine ʻIsipite; ʻe tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe kakai mei he tokelau.”

25 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Vakai, te u tautea ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻo No, mo Felo, mo ʻIsipite, mo honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea mo honau ngaahi tuʻi; ʻio, ʻa Felo mo kinautolu ʻoku falala kiate ia:

He says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to visit [judgment] to Amon from Thebes and on Pharaoh and on Egypt and on gods its and on kings its and on Pharaoh and on the [ones who] trust in him.

26 Pea te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻokinautolu ʻoku kumi ki heʻenau moʻui, pea ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo e nima ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki: pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Hili ia ʻe toki fakakakai ia, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa.

And I will give them in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of servants his and after thus it will settle like days of antiquity [the] utterance of Yahweh.
