Sakalaia 10

1 Mou kole ʻae ʻuha meia Sihova, ʻI he māhina ʻoe ʻuha mui; pea pehē, ʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻuhila, mo ne foaki ʻae ʻuha lahi kiate kinautolu, ki he tangata taki taha ʻae mohuku ʻi he ngoue.

Ask ye of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.

2 He ko e vaʻinga ʻae lea ʻae ngaahi tamapua, pea kuo mamata ʻae kau kikite ki he loi, pea kuo nau fakamatala ʻae ngaahi misi loi; ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻenau fakafiemālie: ko ia naʻa nau ʻalu hē ʻo hangē ha fanga manu, naʻa nau puputuʻu, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ha tauhi.

For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.

3 Naʻe tafutafu ʻeku houhau ki he kau tauhi, pea naʻaku tautea ʻae fanga kosi: he kuo ʻaʻahi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻakinautolu, ʻoku ne tauhi ʻi he fale ʻo Siuta, pea kuo ne ngaohi ʻakinautolu, ke hangē ko ha hoosi lelei ki he tau.

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.

4 Naʻe meiate ia ʻae maka-tuliki, naʻe meiate ia ʻae faʻo, naʻe meiate ia ʻae kaufana ki he tau, pea ʻe haʻu fakataha meiate ia ʻae pule kotoa pē.

And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.

5 Pea te nau hangē ko e kau tangata mālohi, ʻoku malamalaki hifo [honau fili ]ʻi he pelepela ʻoe ngaahi hala, ʻoka fai ʻae tau: pea te nau tau, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova, pea te nau fakamaaʻi ʻae kau heka hoosi.

And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.

6 “Pea te u tokoni mālohi ʻae fale ʻo Siuta, pea te u fakamoʻui ʻae fale ʻo Siosefa, pea te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu, mo toe fakanofo ʻakinautolu; koeʻuhi ko ʻeku ʻofa kiate kinautolu: pea te nau hangē naʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻakinautolu: he ko au, ko Sihova, ko honau ʻOtua, pea te u fanongo kiate kinautolu.

And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.

7 Pea ʻe tatau ʻakinautolu ʻi ʻIfalemi, mo ha taha mālohi, pea ʻe fiefia honau loto ʻo hangē ko ha meʻa ʻi he uaine; ʻio, ʻe mamata ki ai ʻenau fānau pea nau fiefia: ʻe nekeneka honau loto ʻia Sihova.

And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.

8 Te u fakaʻiseʻisa koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, pea u tānaki ʻakinautolu; he kuo u huhuʻi ʻakinautolu, pea te nau tupu ʻo hangē ko ʻenau faʻa tupu.

I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.

9 Pea te u tūtuuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai; pea te nau manatuʻi au, ʻi he ngaahi fonua mamaʻo; pea ʻe moʻui ʻakinautolu, pea mo ʻenau fānau, pea ʻe toe tafoki mai.

And I will sow them among the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.

10 Te u toe ʻomi ʻakinautolu foki mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mo tānaki ʻakinautolu mei ʻAsilia; pea te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ko Kiliati, mo Lepanoni, pea ʻe ʻikai ha potu ʻe maʻu ke nau hao ai.

And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from among the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.

11 Pea ʻe ʻalu atu ia ʻi tahi ʻi he mamahi, pea ʻe taaʻi ʻae ngaahi peau ʻoe tahi, pea ʻe fakamōmoa ʻae ngaahi loloto ʻoe vaitafe: pea ʻe fakahifo ki lalo ʻae fielahi ʻo ʻAsilia, pea ʻe mole atu ʻae tokotoko ʻoe pule mei ʻIsipite.

And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.

12 Pea te u fakamālohi ʻakinautolu ʻia Sihova; pea te nau feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi hono huafa,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.

And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, saith the Lord.
