Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1The land that was desolate and impassable shall be glad, and the wilderness shall rejoice, and shall flourish like the lily.
1ʻE fiefia ʻae toafa mo e potu lala koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, pea ʻe fiefia ʻae potu liʻaki, pea fisi ʻo hangē ko e lose.
2It shall bud forth and blossom, and shall rejoice with joy and praise: the glory of Libanus is given to it: the beauty of Carmel, and Saron, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the beauty of our God.
2ʻE fisi lahi ia, pea fiefia ʻi he fiefia mo e hiva: ʻe foaki ki ai ʻae nāunau ʻo Lepanoni, ko e lelei ʻo Kameli mo Saloni: te nau mamata ki he nāunau ʻo Sihova, mo e lelei lahi ʻo hotau ʻOtua.
3Strengthen ye the feeble hands, and confirm the weak knees.
3Mou tokoni ki he nima vaivai, pea poupou ʻae tui ʻoku fengataliʻaki.
4Say to the fainthearted: Take courage, and fear not: behold your God will bring the revenge of recompense: God himself will come and will save you.
4Ke ke pehē kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto manavasiʻi, “Ke mou mālohi, ʻoua ʻe manavahē: vakai, ʻe hāʻele mai homou ʻOtua mo e tautea, ʻio, ʻae ʻOtua ʻaki ʻae totongi; te ne hāʻele mai ʻo fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu.”
5Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
5Pea ʻe toki fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe kui, pea ʻe fakaava mo e telinga ʻoe tuli.
6Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall be free: for waters are broken out in the desert, and streams in the wilderness.
6Pea ʻe toki hopohopo ʻae tangata ketu ʻo hangē ko e hainite, pea ʻe hiva ʻae ʻelelo ʻoe noa: koeʻuhi ʻe tupu ʻi he toafa ʻae ngaahi vai, mo e ngaahi vaitafe ʻi he potu lala.
7And that which was dry land, shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water. In the dens where dragons dwell before, shall rise up the verdure of the reed and the bulrush.
7Pea ʻe hoko ʻae kelekele mōmoa ko e anovai, mo e fonua fieinu ko e ngaahi matavai: pea ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga talākoni, ʻi he potu naʻe taki taha tokoto ai, ʻe tupu ai ʻae mohuku mo e kaho mo e mohuku ʻoe ano.
8And a path and a way shall be there, and it shall be called the holy way: the unclean shall not pass over it, and this shall be unto you a straight way, so that fools shall not err therein.
8Pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae hala motuʻa, pea mo e hala, pea ʻe ui ia ‘Ko e Hala ʻoe Māʻoniʻoni;’ ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ai ʻae taʻemaʻa; ka e tuku ia kiate kinautolu ni: pea neongo ko e vale ʻae kakai fononga ʻe ʻikai te nau hē ai.
9No lion shall be there, nor shall any mischievous beast go up by it, nor be found there: but they shall walk there that shall be delivered.
9ʻE ʻikai ʻi ai ha laione, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu hake ki ai ha manu fekai, ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻi ai; ka ʻe ʻeveʻeva ai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi:
10And the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and shall come into Sion with praise, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
10Pea ʻe foki mai ʻae kakai kuo huhuʻi ʻe Sihova, ʻo haʻu ki Saione mo e ngaahi hiva, mo e fiefia taʻengata ʻi honau ʻulu: te nau maʻu ʻae fiefia mo e nekeneka, pea ʻe puna atu ʻae mamahi mo e toʻe.”
