Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the number of worshipers there.
1Pea naʻe ʻomi kiate au ʻae vaʻa kaho ʻo hangē ha tokotoko: pea tuʻu ʻae ʻāngelo, ʻo pehē mai, “Tuʻu, ʻo fuofua ʻae fale tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, mo e ʻesifeilaulau, mo kinautolu ʻoku lotu ʻi ai.
2But exclude the courtyard outside the temple. Do not measure it, because it has been given over to the nations, and they will trample the holy city for 42 months.
2Kae tuku pe ʻae lotoʻā ʻoku ʻituʻa ʻi he faletapu, ʻoua ʻe fuofua ia he kuo tuku ia ki he kakai Senitaile pea te nau malaki hifo ʻae kolo tapu ʻi he māhina ʻe fāngofulu ma ua.
3And I will empower my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.”
3Pea te u foaki ki hoku ongo fakamoʻoni, ke na kikite ʻi he ʻaho ʻe taha afe ma uangeau ma onongofulu, kuo kofuʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa.”
4These witnesses are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.
4Ko eni ia ʻae ongo ʻakau ʻolive, mo e ongo tuʻunga maama, ʻoku tutuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo māmani.
5If anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouths and devours their enemies. In this way, anyone who wants to harm them must be killed.
5Pea ka loto ke tautea ʻakinaua ʻe ha taha, ʻoku ʻalu atu ʻae afi mei hona ngutu, ʻo fakaʻauha hona ngaahi fili: pea ka loto ʻe ha taha ke tautea ʻakinaua, ʻe tāmateʻi pehē ni ia.
6These witnesses have power to shut the sky so that no rain will fall during the days of their prophecy, and power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they wish.
6ʻOku maʻu ʻekinaua ni ʻae mālohi ke tāpuni ʻae langi, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻuha ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻena kikite: pea ʻoku na maʻu ʻae mālohi ki he ngaahi vai, ke liliu ia ko e toto, pea ke taaʻi ʻaki ʻa māmani ʻae ngaahi meʻa mamahi ʻo na faʻiteliha pe liunga fiha ia.
7When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them.
7Pea ka fakaʻosi ʻekinaua ʻena fakamoʻoni, ko e manu fekai ʻoku ʻalu hake mei he luo taʻehanotakele, te ne tauʻi ʻakinaua, pea te ne ikuna ʻakinaua, ʻo tāmateʻi ʻakinaua.
8Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city—figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where their Lord was also crucified.
8Pea ko hona sino mate ʻe tuku ʻi he hala ʻoe kolo lahi, ʻaia ʻoku ui fakalaumālie ko Sotoma mo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe tutuki ai ki he ʻakau ʻa hotau ʻEiki.
9For three and a half days all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will view their bodies and will not permit them to be laid in a tomb.
9Pea ko kinautolu ʻoe ngaahi kakai, mo e ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e ngaahi lea, mo e ngaahi puleʻanga, te nau mamata ki hona sino mate ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu mo e konga ʻaho, pea ʻe ʻikai tuku ke tanu hona sino mate.
10And those who dwell on the earth will gloat over them, and will celebrate and send one another gifts, because these two prophets had tormented them.
10Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani te nau fiefia kiate kinaua, ʻo fakafiefiaʻi, pea feʻaveʻaki ʻenau ngaahi meʻaʻofa; koeʻuhi naʻe fakamamahi ʻe he ongo palōfita ni ʻakinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi māmani.
11But after the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered the two witnesses, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell upon those who saw them.
11Pea hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu mo e konga ʻaho, naʻe hū kiate kinaua ʻae laumālie ʻoe moʻui mei he ʻOtua, pea naʻa na tuʻu ʻi hona vaʻe; pea naʻe tō ʻae manavahē lahi kiate kinautolu naʻe mamata kiate kinaua.
12And the witnesses heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud as their enemies watched them.
12Pea naʻa nau fanongo ki he leʻo lahi mei he langi, ʻoku pehē kiate kinaua, “ʻAlu hake ki heni.” Pea ne na ʻalu hake ki he langi ʻi he ʻao; pea naʻe mamata kiate kinaua ʻa hona ngaahi fili.
13And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand were killed in the quake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
13Pea ʻi he feituʻulaʻā pe ko ia naʻe ai ʻae mofuike lahi, pea holo hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻoe kolo, pea naʻe mate ʻi he mofuike ʻae kakai ʻe toko fitu afe: pea naʻe ilifia hono toe, ʻonau fakamālō ki he ʻOtua ʻoe langi.
14The second woe has passed. Behold, the third woe is coming shortly.
14Kuo hili hono ua ʻoe malaʻia; vakai, ʻoku haʻu toʻotoʻo hono tolu ʻoe malaʻia.
15Then the seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and loud voices called out in heaven: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever.”
15Pea naʻe ifi ʻe hono fitu ʻoe ʻāngelo pea naʻe ai ʻae ngaahi leʻo mālohi ʻi he langi, naʻe pehē, “Ko e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoe maama kuo ʻo hotau ʻEiki, mo hono Kalaisi pea ʻe pule ia ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.”
16And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,
16Pea ko e mātuʻa e toko uofulu ma toko fā, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi honau ngaahi nofoʻa ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻa nau foʻohifo ʻo hū ki he ʻOtua,
17saying: “We give thanks to You, O Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign.
17ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻe ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi, ʻOku ke ʻi ai ni, pea naʻa ke ʻi ai, pea te ke ʻi ai; Koeʻuhi kuo ke toʻo kiate koe ʻa hoʻo mālohi lahi, pea kuo ke pule.
18The nations were enraged, and Your wrath has come. The time has come to judge the dead and to reward Your servants the prophets, as well as the saints and those who fear Your name, both small and great— and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
18Pea naʻe ʻita ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga pea kuo hoko mai ho houhau, Mo e kuonga ʻoe pekia, koeʻuhi ke fakamaaua ʻakinautolu, Pea koeʻuhi ke ke totongi ai ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita, mo e kakai māʻoniʻoni, Mo kinautolu ʻoku manavahē ki ho huafa, ʻae iiki mo e lalahi; Pea ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau fakaʻauha ʻae maama.
19Then the temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple. And there were flashes of lightning, and rumblings, and peals of thunder, and an earthquake, and a great hailstorm.
19Pea naʻe fakaava ʻae fale tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he langi, pea naʻe hā mai ʻi hono fale tapu ʻae puha ʻo ʻene fuakava: pea naʻe ai ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila, mo e ngaahi leʻo, mo e ngaahi mana, mo e mofuike, mo e ʻuha maka lahi.
