< Sakalaia 13 >

1 “ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe fakaava ʻae matavai ki he fale ʻo Tevita, pea mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema koeʻuhi ko e angahala, pea mo e taʻemaʻa.
On that day shall there be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for cleansing from sin and for purification.
2 Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, te u motuhi ʻae hingoa ʻoe ngaahi tamapua mei he fonua, pea ʻe ʻikai toe manatuʻi ʻi ai: pea te u pule ke mole atu mei he fonua ʻae kau kikite mo e laumālie ʻuli.
And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall not be remembered any more: and also the prophets and the unclean spirit will I remove out of the land.
3 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau ʻe toe kikite ha taha, pea ʻe toki lea kiate ia ʻa ʻene tamai, pea mo ʻene fale, ʻaia ne ne tupu ai, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te ke moʻui he ʻoku ke lea loi ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova:’ pea ko ʻene tamai, pea mo ʻene faʻē naʻa ne tupu ai, te na hokaʻi ia ke ʻasi, ʻoka fai ʻe ia ʻae kikite.
And it shall come to pass, if any one should yet prophesy, that his father and his mother who have begotten him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for falsely hast thou spoken in the name of the Lord: and his father and his mother who have begotten him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
4 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe mā ʻae kau kikite taki taha ʻi heʻene meʻa hā mai, ʻoka fai ʻe ia ʻene kikite; pea ʻe ʻikai te nau kofuʻaki ʻae kofu ʻoe fulufuluʻi manu ke fai ʻae kākā:
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one because of his vision, when he prophesieth; and they shall not clothe themselves with a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
5 Ka te ne pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ko ha kikite au, ka ko e tangata ngoue: he naʻe akoʻi au ʻe ha tangata ke tauhimanu talu ʻeku kei siʻi.’
But he will say, I am no prophet, a man that tilleth the ground am I; for some one hath taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
6 Pea ʻe pehē mai ʻe ha taha kiate ia, ‘Ko e hā ʻae ngaahi lavea ko ʻena ʻi ho nima?’ Pea te ne pehē ʻe ia, ‘Ko e ngaahi lavea ʻi heʻeku ʻi he fale ʻo hoku kāinga.’
And should some one say unto him, What are these wounds between thy hands? Then will he say, Those with which I have been wounded in the house of my [vicious] friends.
7 “ʻE heletā, ke ke ʻā, ki heʻeku tauhi, pea ki he tangata ko ia ʻoku ma kaumeʻa,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau. “Taaʻi ʻae tauhi, pea ʻe movetevete ʻae fanga sipi: pea te u tafoki atu hoku nima kiate kinautolu ʻoku kei iiki.
Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man whom I have associated with me, saith the Lord of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; but I will turn my hand toward the feeble ones.
8 Pea ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, ʻi he fonua kotoa,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ko hono vahe ʻe ua ʻe motuhi, pea ʻe mate; ka ko hono vahe ʻe taha ʻe tuku ia ʻi ai.
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts [of those] therein shall be cut off, shall perish; but the third part shall be left therein.
9 Pea te u ʻomi ʻa hono vahe ko ia ʻe taha ʻi he loto afi, pea te u fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko hono fakamaʻa ʻoe siliva, pea te u ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻoe koula: te nau ui ki hoku huafa, pea te u fanongo kiate kinautolu: Te u pehē, ‘ko hoku kakai ia:’ pea te nau pehē ʻekinautolu, ‘Ko Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua ia.’”
And I will bring the third part into the fire, and I will refine them as one refineth silver, and will probe them as gold is probed: they will call on my name, and I will answer their prayer; I will say, They arc my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.
