1 Fakataha ʻakimoutolu, ʻio, fakataha, ʻae puleʻanga ʻoku ʻikai ke holi;
Come ye togidere, be gaderid, ye folc not worthi to be loued,
2 ‌ʻI he teʻeki ke ʻomi ʻae tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he ʻaho, ʻaia ʻalu atu ʻo hangē ko e kafukafu, ʻi he teʻeki ke hoko kiate kimoutolu ʻae houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova, ʻi he teʻeki ke hoko kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻaho ʻoe tuputāmaki ʻo Sihova.
bifore that comaundyng brynge forth as dust passyng dai; bifore that wraththe of strong veniaunce of the Lord come on you, bifor that the dai of his indignacioun come on you.
3 Mou kumi kia Sihova, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae angamalū ʻoe fonua, kuo mou fai ʻa ʻene fakamaau; kumi ki he māʻoniʻoni, kumi ki he angamalū: heiʻilo ʻe fufū ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe houhau ʻo Sihova.
Alle myelde men of erthe, seke ye the Lord, whiche han wrouyt the doom of hym; seke ye the iust, seke ye the mylde, if ony maner ye be hid in the dai of strong veniaunce of the Lord.
4 Koeʻuhi ʻe liʻaki ʻa Kesa, pea fakaʻauha ʻa ʻAsikeloni: te nau kapusi ʻa ʻAsitoti ʻi he hoʻatā, pea ʻe taʻaki fuʻu ʻa Ekiloni.
For Gasa schal be distried, and Ascalon schal be in to desert; thei schulen caste out Azotus in myddai, and Accaron schal be drawun out bi the root.
5 Ke malaʻia ki he kakai ʻoe matātahi, ko e puleʻanga ʻoe kakai Kiliti! ʻOku ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova; ʻE Kēnani, ko e fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, naʻa mo koe, te u fakaʻauha koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha taha ʻe nofo ai.
Wo to you that dwellen in the litil part of the see, a folc of loste men. The word of the Lord on you, Canaan, the lond of Filisteis, and Y schal distrie thee, so that a dwellere be not;
6 Pea ʻe hoko ʻae matātahi ko e ngaahi nofoʻanga, mo e ngaahi fale maʻa e kau tauhi sipi, mo e ngaahi lotoʻā maʻa e fanga sipi.
and the litil part of the see schal be reste of scheepherdis, and foldis of scheep.
7 Pea ʻe tuku ʻae fonua maʻa e toenga ʻoe fale ʻo Siuta; te nau kai ai: te nau tokoto ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻo ʻAsikeloni ʻi he efiafi: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻaʻahi kiate kinautolu ʻa honau ʻOtua ko Sihova, pea ʻe liliu ai honau fakapōpula.
And it schal be a litil part of hym, that schal be left of the hous of Juda, there thei schulen be fed in the housis of Ascalon; at euentid thei schulen reste, for the Lord God of hem schal visite hem, and schal turne awei the caitifte of hem.
8 Kuo u fanongo ki he valoki ʻa Moape, mo e ngaahi manuki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻaia kuo nau lauʻikoviʻi ai ʻa hoku kakai, mo fakahikihiki ʻakinautolu ki honau fonua.
Y herde the schenschip of Moab, and blasfemyes of sones of Amon, whiche thei seiden schentfuli to my puple, and thei weren magnefied on the termes of hem.
9 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻOku ou moʻui, pea ko e moʻoni ʻe hangē ko Sotoma ʻa Moape, pea ko e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ʻe hangē ko Komola, ʻio, ko e potu ʻoe ʻakau veli, mo e ngaahi luo māsima, mo e fakaʻauha tuʻumaʻu: ʻe maumauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he toe ʻo ʻeku kakai, pea ʻe maʻu ʻakinautolu ʻe he toenga ʻo ʻeku kakai.
Therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, for Moab schal be as Sodom, and the sones of Amon as Gomorre; drynesse of thornes, and hepis of salt, and desert, til in to withouten ende. The relifs of my puple schulen rauysche hem, the residues of my folc schulen welde hem.
10 ‌ʻE maʻu eni ʻekinautolu, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau fielahi, koeʻuhi kuo nau valoki, mo fakahikihiki ʻakinautolu, ki he kakai ʻo Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
Sotheli this thing schal come to hem for her pride, for thei blasfemeden, and weren magnefied on the puple of the Lord of oostis.
11 ‌ʻE fakailifia ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu: he te ne fakahonge ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kotoa pē ʻoe fonua; pea ʻe lotu ʻae kakai kiate ia, taki taha ʻi hono potu, ʻio, ko e ngaahi ʻotu motu kotoa pē ʻoe hiteni.
The Lord schal be orible on hem, and he schal make feble alle goddis of erthe; and men of her place schulen worschipe hym, alle the ilis of hethene men.
12 ʻAkimoutolu foki, ʻae kakai ʻItiopea, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe heʻeku heletā.
But and ye, Ethiopiens, schulen be slayn bi my swerd.
13 Pea ʻe mafao atu ʻe ia ʻa hono nima ki he tokelau, mo maumauʻi ʻa ʻAsilia; pea te ne ngaohi ʻa Ninive ko e fakaʻauha, pea mōmoa ʻo hangē ko e toafa.
And he schal stretche forth his hond on the north, and schal leese Assur; and he schal putte the feir citee Nynyue in to wildirnesse, and into with out weie, and as desert.
14 Pea ʻe tokoto ʻae fanga sipi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia, ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga; ʻe fakatou nofo ʻae komolane mo e pitane ʻi he funga matapā ʻi ʻolunga; ʻe hiva ʻa honau leʻo ʻi he ngaahi matapā sioʻata; ʻe ʻi he ngaahi lakaʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻae fakaʻauha: he te ne veteki ʻae ngāue ʻoe sita.
And flockis, and alle the beestis of folkis, schulen ligge in the myddil therof; and onacratalus, and irchun schulen dwelle in threshfoldis therof; vois of the syngynge in wyndow, and crow in the lyntil, for Y schal make thinne the strengthe therof.
15 Ko eni ʻae kolo fakafiefia ʻaia naʻe nofo fakafiemālie kovi, ʻaia naʻe pehē ʻi hono loto, Ko au, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha mo au: hono ʻikai kuo hoko ia ko e fakaʻauha, ko e potu ke tokoto ai ʻae fanga manu! ʻE taki taha ʻiseʻisa mo ʻalu atu ʻiate ia, mo tupetupeʻi hono nima.
This is the gloriouse citee dwellynge in trist, which seide in hir herte, Y am, and ther is noon other more withouten me. Hou is it maad vnto desert, a couche of beeste; ech man that schal passe bi it, schal hisse, and schal moue his hond.
