1The burden of Damascus. Behold Damascus shall cease to be a city, and shall be as a ruinous heap of stones.
1Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki Tamasikusi. “Vakai kuo toʻo atu ʻa Tamasikusi ke ʻoua naʻa kei kolo ia, ka e hoko ia ko e potu tuʻunga fale maumau.
2The cities of Aroer shall be left for flocks, and they shall rest there, and there shall be none to make them afraid.
2Kuo liʻaki ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻo ʻAloeli: ʻe ʻoe fanga manu ia, pea te nau tokoto ai, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu.
3And aid shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus: and the remnant of Syria shall be as the glory of the children of Israel: saith the Lord of hosts.
3ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻE ngata ʻae kolo ʻi ʻIfalemi, mo e puleʻanga ʻo Tamasikusi, pea mo e toenga kakai ʻo Silia: te nau hangē ko e ongoongolelei ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
4And it shall come to pass in that day, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall grow lean.
4Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻe fakasiʻisiʻi ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo Sēkope, pea ʻe fakaʻaʻau ke tutue ʻae ngako ʻo hono sino.
5And it shall be as when one gathereth in the harvest that which remaineth, and his arm shall gather the ears of corn: and it shall be as he that seeketh ears in the vale of Raphaim.
5Pea ʻe hangē ia ko e tānaki ʻe he tangata ututaʻu ʻene koane, pea tuʻusi hono fua ʻaki hono nima; pea ʻe hangē ia ko ia ʻoku tānaki ʻae fua ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Lifeimi.
6And the fruit thereof that shall be left upon it, shall be as one cluster of grapes, and as the shaking of the olive tree, two or three berries in the top of a bough, or four or five upon the top of the tree, saith the Lord the God of Israel.
6¶ “Ka e fakatoe ʻi ai ʻae fua ʻoe vaine, ʻo hangē ko e lulululu ʻae ʻakau ko e ʻolive, ko e foʻi fua ʻe ua pe tolu ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he vaʻa taupotu ki ʻolunga, ko e fā pe nima ʻi he ngaahi vaʻa taukakapa ʻo ia ʻoku fua, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
7In that day man shall bow down himself to his Maker, and his eyes shall look to the Holy One of Israel.
7ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe hanga hake ʻae tangata ki hono Tupuʻanga, pea ʻe tokanga ʻa hono mata ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.
8And he shall not look to the altars which his hands made: and he shall not have respect to the things that his fingers wrought, such as groves and temples.
8Pea ʻe ʻikai te ne sio ki he ngaahi feilaulauʻanga, ko e ngāue ʻa hono nima, pe tokanga ki he meʻa kuo ngaohi ʻe hono louhiʻi nima, ki he ngaahi vao tapu, pe ko e ngaahi tamapua.
9In that day his strong cities shall be forsaken, as the ploughs, and the corn that were left before the face of the children of Israel, and thou shalt be desolate.
9¶ “ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe tatau hono ngaahi kolo mālohi mo ha vaʻa kuo liʻaki, mo ha vaʻa māʻolunga, ʻaia naʻa nau tuku koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakaʻauha.
10Because thou hast forgotten God thy saviour, and hast not remembered thy strong helper: therefore shalt thou plant good plants, and shalt sow strange seed.
10Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fakangalongaloʻi ʻae ʻOtua ʻo hoʻo moʻui, pea taʻemanatu ki he maka ʻo ho mālohi, ko ia te ke tō ʻae ngaahi ʻakau toulekeleka, pea tō mo ia ʻae ngaahi ʻakau mei he fonua kehe:
11In the day of thy planting shall be the wild grape, and in the morning thy seed shall flourish: the harvest is taken away in the day of inheritance, and shall grieve thee much.
11ʻI he ʻaho ko ia te ke ngaohi hoʻo ʻakau ke tupu, pea ʻi he pongipongi te ke ngaohi hoʻo tenga ke moʻui: ka e hoko ʻae ututaʻu ko e fokotuʻunga ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, ko e mamahi taʻeʻiaihaʻamanaki lelei.
12Woe to the multitude of many people, like the multitude of the roaring sea: and the tumult of crowds, like the noise of many waters.
12¶ “ʻE malaʻia ʻae fakataha lahi ʻoe kakai tokolahi, ʻoku longoaʻa ʻo hangē ko e ʻuʻulu ʻoe tahi; pea ʻi he feʻohofi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻoku ʻoho ʻo hangē ko e ʻoho ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi ʻaupito!
13Nations shall make a noise like the noise of waters overflowing, but he shall rebuke him, and he shall flee far off: and he shall be carried away as the dust of the mountains before the wind, and as a whirlwind before a tempest.
13ʻE feʻohofi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo hangē ko e ʻoho ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi: ka e lolomi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻOtua , pea te nau hola ki he mamaʻo, pea ʻe tulia ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e mohuku mōmoa ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi, pea hangē ko e fisiʻiʻakau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻahiohio.
14In the time of the evening, behold there shall be trouble: the morning shall come, and he shall not be: this is the portion of them that have wasted us, and the lot of them that spoiled us.
14Pea vakai ko e ongosia ʻi he efiafi poʻuli; pea ʻi he teʻeki hoko ʻae pongipongi kuo ʻikai ia. Ko eni ʻae ʻinasi ʻokinautolu ʻoku fakamālohiʻi ʻakitautolu, mo e ʻinasi ʻokinautolu ʻoku kaihaʻasiʻi ʻakitautolu.”
