1 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia te nau ʻomi mei honau ngaahi faʻitoka, ʻae hui ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta, mo e ngaahi hui ʻoe houʻeiki, mo e hui ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, mo e hui ʻoe kau palōfita, pea mo e ngaahi hui ʻoe kakai ʻo Selūsalema.
“‘Saa bere no, sɛnea Awurade se ni, wobeyiyi Yuda ahemfo ne adwumayɛfo nnompe, asɔfo ne adiyifo nnompe ne Yerusalemfo nnompe afi wɔn nna mu.
2 Pea te nau fofola ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe laʻā, pea mo e māhina, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoe langi, ʻaia kuo nau ʻofa ki ai, pea kuo nau tauhi, pea kuo nau muimui ki ai, pea kuo nau kumi pea kuo nau lotu ki ai; pea ʻe ʻikai tānaki ʻakinautolu, pe tanu; ka te nau hoko ko e kinohaʻa ʻi he funga ʻoe kelekele.
Wɔbɛsɛw no kɛtɛ wɔ owia ne ɔsram ne ɔsorosoro nsoromma nyinaa a wɔdɔe, na wɔsomee, na wodii akyi kɔɔ so abisa na wɔsɔree no ase. Wɔremmoa wɔn ano na wɔrensie wɔn; mmom, wɔbɛyɛ sɛ sumina a egugu fam.
3 Pea ʻe fili ʻae mate ʻi he moʻui ʻekinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku toe ʻi he faʻahinga kovi ni, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku toe ʻi he ngaahi potu kuo u kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
Baabiara a metwa saa ɔman bɔne yi nkae no asu akɔ no, wɔbɛpɛ sɛ wobewu sen sɛ wɔbɛtena nkwa mu, sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni.’
4 “Pea te ke lea kiate kinautolu foki, ‘ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; “‘Te nau hinga, pea ʻe ʻikai toetuʻu? Te ne ʻalu atu pea ʻe ʻikai toe foki mai?
“Ka kyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Nea Awurade se ni: “‘Sɛ nnipa hwe ase a, wɔnsɔre ana? Sɛ onipa dan ne ho a, ɔnsan nʼakyi ana?
5 Ka ko e hā kuo fakaholomui ai ʻae kakai ni ʻo Selūsalema ʻo fakaholomui maʻuaipē? ʻOku nau kuku maʻu ki he kākā, ʻoku ʻikai te nau fie tafoki mai.
Afei adɛn nti na saa nnipa yi adan wɔn ho? Adɛn nti na Yerusalem dan ne ho daa yi? Wokura nnaadaa mu pintinn; na wɔmpɛ sɛ wɔsan wɔn akyi.
6 Pea naʻaku fakafanongo pea ongoʻi, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau lea totonu: naʻe ʻikai ha tangata kuo fakatomala ʻi heʻene kovi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e hā kuo u fai?” Kuo taki taha foki ki heʻene anga ʻaʻana, ʻo hangē ko e ʻoho ʻae hoosi ki he tau.

8 “‘ʻOku fēfē hoʻomou pehē, “ʻOku mau poto, pea ʻoku ʻiate kimautolu ʻae fono ʻa Sihova?” Ko e moʻoni kuo liliu ʻae meʻa ni ko e loi, ʻe he peni kākā ʻae kau tangata tohi.

9 Kuo mā ʻae kau tangata poto, kuo tauhele mo fakailifia ʻakinautolu: Vakai, kuo nau liʻaki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova; pea ko e hā ʻae poto ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu?
Anyansafo no anim begu ase; wɔn ho bedwiriw wɔn na afide ayi wɔn. Sɛ wɔapo Awurade asɛm no a, na nyansa bɛn na wɔwɔ?
10 Ko ia te u foaki honau ngaahi uaifi ki he kakai kehe: he ʻoku manumanu ʻakinautolu taki taha mei he iiki, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he lalahi, ʻoku taki taha fai kākā mei he palōfita ʻo aʻu ki he taulaʻeiki.

11 He kuo nau fakamoʻui kākā ʻae lavea ʻoe ʻofefine ʻo hoku kakai, ʻonau pehē, “Fiemālie, fiemālie;” ka ʻoku ʻikai ha fiemālie.
Wɔtoto me nkurɔfo apirakuru te sɛnea ɛnyɛ hu. Wɔka se, “Asomdwoe, asomdwoe” wɔ mmere a asomdwoe nni hɔ.
12 He naʻa nau mā ʻi he hili ʻenau fai ʻae meʻa fakalielia? Naʻe ʻikai; naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te nau mā, pe fekulaʻi honau mata: ko ia te nau tō hifo fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoku hinga: ʻe fakatō ki lalo ʻakinautolu, ʻo kau ka tautea ʻakinautolu, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.’”

13 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Ko e moʻoni te u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu:” ʻe ʻikai fua ʻae ngaahi vaine, pea ʻe ʻikai fua ʻae ngaahi fiki, ka ʻe mae hono lau; pea ʻe mole ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻaku foaki kiate kinautolu.”
“‘Mɛfa wɔn twabere nnɔbae akɔ, nea Awurade se ni. Aba biara remma bobe nnua no so. Aba biara remma borɔdɔma nnua no so, ɛso nhaban begunguan. Nea mede ama wɔn no, wobegye afi wɔn nsam.’”
14 “Ko e hā ʻoku tau nofo fakafiemālie ai? Ke tau fakataha pea ʻalu ki he ngaahi kolo mālohi, pea ke tau tatali fakalongolongo ʻi ai: he kuo fakalongoʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, pea kuo ne foaki kiate kitautolu ʻae huhuʻa kona ʻoe ʻahu ke inu, koeʻuhi kuo tau fai angahala kia Sihova.

“Hwɛ, mɛsoma awɔ a wɔn ano wɔ bɔre aba mo mu, nhurutoa a wontumi nnwudwo wɔn, na wɔbɛkeka mo,” nea Awurade se ni.

20 “Kuo ʻosi ʻae ututaʻu, kuo hili ʻae faʻahitaʻu mafana, pea ʻoku teʻeki ai fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu.”
“Otwabere no atwa mu, ahuhuru bere no aba awiei, na wonnnyee yɛn nkwa.”
