Fakahā 18
1 Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ne u mamata ki he ʻāngelo ʻe taha ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he langi, kuo ʻiate ia ʻae mālohi lahi; pea naʻe māmangia ʻa māmani ʻi hono nāunau,
And after these things I saw another messenger coming down out of Heaven, having great authority, and the earth was lightened from his glory,
2 Pea naʻa ne kalanga mālohi ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko Papilone ko e lahi kuo hinga, kuo hinga ia, pea kuo hoko ia ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe kau tēvolo, pea ko e ʻananga ʻoe laumālie ʻuli kotoa pē, pea ko e kātoanga ʻoe manupuna kotoa pē ʻoku ʻuli mo fakalielia.
and he cried in might [with] a great voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! And she became a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hateful bird,
3 He kuo inu ʻe he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi he uaine ʻoe houhau ʻo ʻene feʻauaki, pea kuo feʻauaki mo ia ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea ko e kau fakatau ʻo māmani kuo nau koloaʻia, ko e meʻa ʻi he lahi ʻo ʻene ngaahi meʻa lelei.”
because all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom, and the kings of the earth committed whoredom with her, and merchants of the earth were made rich from the power of her indulgence.”
4 Pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻe taha mei he langi, ʻoku pehē mai, “ʻE hoku kakai, haʻu meiate ia, ke ʻoua te mou kau ʻi heʻene ngaahi angahala, pea ke ʻoua naʻa mou moʻua ʻi heʻene ngaahi malaʻia.
And I heard another voice out of Heaven, saying, “Come forth out of her, My people, that you may not partake with her sins, and that you may not receive of her plagues,
5 He kuo aʻu hake ki he langi ʻa ʻene ngaahi angahala, pea kuo manatuʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa ʻene ngaahi hia.
because her sins have reached up to Heaven, and God remembered her unrighteousness.
6 Totongi kiate ia ʻo hangē ko ʻene totongi kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻatu kiate ia ke tuʻo ua ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngaahi ngāue: ʻi he ipu ʻaia naʻa ne fakafonu, ke fakafonu ai kiate ia ke liunga ua.
Render to her as she also rendered to you, and double to her twofold according to her works; in the cup that she mingled mingle to her double.
7 Tuku kiate ia ʻae tautea mo e mamahi ʻo fakatatau ki hono lahi ʻo ʻene fakahikihikiʻi ia, mo ʻene moʻui fakapelepeleʻi ia: he kuo pehē ʻe ia ʻi hono loto, ‘ʻOku ou nofo ko e tuʻi fefine, pea ʻoku ʻikai mate hoku husepāniti, pea ʻe ʻikai te u mamata ki ha mamahi.’
As much as she glorified herself and indulged, so much torment and sorrow give to her, because in her heart she says, I sit [as] queen, and I am not a widow, and I will not see sorrow;
8 Ko ia, ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho pe taha ʻa hono ngaahi malaʻia, ko e mate, mo e tangi, mo e honge; pea ʻe fakaʻauha mālie ia ʻaki ʻae afi: he ʻoku māfimafi ʻae ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua ʻoku ne fakamaauʻi ia.
because of this, in one day, will come her plagues: death, and sorrow, and famine; and she will be utterly burned in fire, because strong [is] the LORD God who is judging her;
9 “Pea ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, naʻa nau feʻauaki mo moʻui fakapelepele mo ia, te nau tangi mo tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko ia, ʻoka nau ka mamata ki he kohu ʻo ʻene vela,
and the kings of the earth will weep over her and strike themselves for her, who committed whoredom and indulged with her, when they may see the smoke of her burning,
10 ʻO tuʻu mamaʻo atu, ʻi he manavahē ki heʻene mamahi, mo nau pehē, ‘ʻOiauē, ʻoiauē, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia ko Papilone, ʻae kolo mālohi ko ia! He kuo hoko ʻi he feituʻulaʻā pe taha ʻa hoʻo fakamaau.’
having stood from afar because of the fear of her torment, saying, Woe, woe, the great city! Babylon, the strong city! Because in one hour your judgment came.
11 “Pea ʻe tangi mo tangilāulau ʻae kau fakatau ʻo māmani koeʻuhi ko ia; he ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke toe fakatau ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakatau:
And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because no one buys their cargo anymore;
12 Ko e meʻa fakatau ʻoe koula, mo e siliva, mo e maka koloa, mo e mataʻitofe, mo e tupenu mahuʻinga, mo e kulokula, mo e silika, mo e kulaʻahoʻaho, mo e ʻakau melie kotoa pē, mo e ipu lei kotoa pē, mo e ipu ʻoe ʻakau mahuʻinga lahi kotoa pē, mo e palasa, mo e ukamea, mo e maka lelei,
cargo of gold, and silver, and precious stone, and pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all fragrant wood, and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel of most precious wood, and brass, and iron, and marble,
13 Mo e sinamoni, mo e ngaahi meʻa nanamu mo e meʻa tākai, mo e laipeno, mo e uaine, mo e lolo, mo e mahoaʻa lelei, mo e uite, mo e fanga manu, mo e fanga sipi, mo e fanga hoosi, mo e ngaahi saliote, mo e ngaahi sino, mo e ngaahi laumālie ʻoe kakai.
and cinnamon, and amomum, and incense, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies and souls of men.
14 Pea ko e ngaahi fua naʻe holi ki ai ʻa ho laumālie, kuo mole ʻiate koe, pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ifoifo lelei mo matamatalelei, kuo mole ʻiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke kei ʻilo ia.
And the fruits of the desire of your soul went away from you, and all things—the sumptuous and the radiant—went away from you, and no more at all may you find them.
15 Ko e kau fakatau ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻa nau koloaʻia meiate ia, ʻe tutuʻu ʻi he mamaʻo atu, ko e meʻa ʻi he manavahē ki heʻene mamahi, ʻonau tangi mo tangilāulau,
The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far off because of the fear of her torment, weeping, and mourning,
16 ‘Mo nau pehē, ʻOiauē, ʻoiauē, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia, naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu mahuʻinga, mo e kulokula, mo e kulaʻahoʻaho, pea teunga ʻaki ʻae koula, mo e maka koloa, mo e ngaahi mataʻitofe!
and saying, Woe, woe, the great city, that was clothed with fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and gilded in gold, and precious stone, and pearls—
17 Koeʻuhi ko e feituʻulaʻā pe taha kuo mole ai ʻae koloa lahi pehē ni.’ Pea ko e ʻeiki vaka kotoa pē, mo e kakai folau kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi vaka, mo e kau toutai, mo kinautolu ʻoku fai fakatau ʻi he tahi, naʻa nau tutuʻu mamaʻo atu,
because in one hour so much riches were made desolate! And every shipmaster, and all the company on the ships, and sailors, and as many as work the sea, stood far off,
18 ʻo tangi, ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he kohu ʻo ʻene vela, mo pehē, ‘Ko fē hano tatau ʻoe kolo lahi ni!’
and were crying, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What [city is] like to the great city?
19 “Pea naʻa nau lī ʻae efu ki honau ʻulu, ʻo tangi, pea tangilāulau mo ʻOiauē, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOiauē, ʻoiauē, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia, ʻaia naʻe maʻu koloa mei ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe maʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻi he tahi, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fakatau lahi; he ko e feituʻulaʻā pe taha kuo fakamasiva ia.’
And they cast dust on their heads, and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, Woe, woe, the great city! In which were made rich all having ships in the sea, out of her costliness—for in one hour was she made desolate.
20 “ʻE langi, ke ke fiefia kiate ia, fakataha mo e kau palōfita māʻoniʻoni; he kuo totongi ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu.”
Be glad over her, O Heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, because God judged your judgment of her!”
21 Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ha ʻāngelo mālohi ʻae maka ʻo hangē ha fuʻu maka momosi, ʻo ne lī ia ki he tahi, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE pehē ʻa hono lī mālohi hifo ʻae kolo lahi ko ia ko Papilone, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito kei ʻiloʻi ia.
And one strong messenger took up a stone as a great millstone, and cast [it] into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon be cast, the great city, and may not be found anymore at all;
22 Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito kei fanongo ʻiate koe ʻae leʻo ʻoe kau tā haʻape, mo e kau tā meʻa faiva, mo e kau ifi fangufangu, mo e kau ifi meʻa lea, pea ʻe ʻikai kei ʻilo ʻiate koe ha tufunga ʻe taha, ʻi ha faiva ʻe taha; pea ʻe ʻikai kei ongoʻi ʻiate koe ʻae longoaʻa ʻoe maka momosi;
and voice of harpists, and musicians, and pipers, and trumpeters, may not be heard at all in you anymore; and any craftsman of any craft may not be found at all in you anymore; and noise of a millstone may not be heard at all in you anymore;
23 Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito kei malama ʻiate koe ʻae ulo ʻo ha maama; pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito kei ongoʻi ʻiate koe ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangata taʻane mo e taʻahine: he ko e houʻeiki ʻo māmani ko hoʻo kau fakatau; he naʻe kākaaʻi ʻe hoʻo fie mana ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.”
and light of a lamp may not shine at all in you anymore; and voice of bridegroom and of bride may not be heard at all in you anymore; because your merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were led astray in your sorcery,
24 Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻiate ia ʻae toto ʻoe kau palōfita, mo e kakai māʻoniʻoni, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tāmateʻi ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.”
and in her blood of prophets and of holy ones was found, and of all those who have been slain on the earth.”
