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.

In that day, there shall be an opened fountain, for the house of David, and for the Inhabitants of Jerusalem, —for sin and for uncleanness.

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, in that day, declareth Yahweh of hosts, That I will cut off the names of idols out of the land, and they shall not be remembered any more, —Moreover also, even the prophets and the spirit of impurity, will I cause to pass away 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.

So shall it come about that, when any man shall prophesy again, then will his own father and his own mother, of whom he was born, say unto him, —Thou shalt not live! For falsehood hast thou spoken in the name of Yahweh, —So will his own father and his own mother of whom he was born, pierce 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:

Yea it shall come to pass, in that day, that the prophets, will turn pale, every man by reason of his vision when he prophesieth, —neither will they put on a mantle of hair 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, No prophet, am I, —One tilling the ground, am I, for, one of the common people, hath owned me 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.’

Then will one say unto him, What are these wounds between thy hands? And he will say, Wherewith I was wounded in the house of them who loved me.

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.

O Sword! awake against my shepherd, even against the man that is my companion, urgeth Yahweh of hosts, —Smite the shepherd, and let the flock, be scattered, Howbeit I will turn back my hand over the little 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, in all the land, declareth Yahweh, Two-thirds therein, shall be cut off, and expire, —but, a third, 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 into the fire, and will smelt them as one smelteth silver, and will try them, as one trieth gold, —It, will call upon my name, and, I, will answer it, and will say, My people, it is! and, it, will say, Yahweh, is my God!
