Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Behold my servant, I will uphold him: my elect, my soul delighteth in him: I have given my spirit upon him, he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
1“Vakai ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia ʻoku ou poupou; ʻaia kuo u fili, pea ʻoku fiefia ʻiate ia hoku laumālie; kuo u tuku hoku laumālie kiate ia: te ne fakahā ʻae fakamaau ki he ngaahi Senitaile.
2He shall not cry, nor have respect to person, neither shall his voice be heard abroad.
2ʻE ʻikai te ne tangi, pe hiki hake hono leʻo, pe fakaongo atu ia ʻi he hala.
3The bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
3ʻE ʻikai te ne fesiʻi ha kaho kuo volu, pe tāmateʻi ʻae maama ʻoku kohu: te ne ʻomi ʻae fakamaau ki he moʻoni.
4He shall not be sad, nor troublesome, till he set judgment in the earth: and the islands shall wait for his law.
4ʻE ʻikai te ne vaivai pe manavasiʻi, kaeʻoua ke ne fokotuʻu ʻae fakamaau ʻi māmani: pea ʻe tatali ʻae ngaahi motu ki heʻene fono.”
5Thus saith the Lord God that created the heavens, and stretched them out: that established the earth, and the things that spring out of it: that giveth breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them that tread thereon.
5ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ko Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatupu ʻae ngaahi langi, pea folahi atu ia; ko ia naʻe mafola atu ʻae fonua, pea mo ia ʻoku tupu ai; ko ia ʻoku foaki ʻae mānava ki he kakai ʻi he funga ʻo ia, mo e laumālie kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi ai:
6I the Lord have called thee in justice, and taken thee by the hand, and preserved thee. And I have given thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles:
6“Ko au ko Sihova naʻaku ui koe ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, pea te u puke ho nima, pea tauhi koe, pea foaki koe ko e fuakava ʻoe kakai, ko e maama ki he ngaahi Senitaile;
7That thou mightest open the eyes of the blind, and bring forth the prisoner out of prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
7Ke fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe kui, ke ʻomi ʻae kau pōpula mei he fale fakapōpula, pea ko kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he poʻuli mei he fale fakapōpula.
8I the Lord, this is my name: I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to graven things.
8“Ko au ko Sihova: ko hoku huafa ia: pea ko hoku nāunau ʻe ʻikai te u foaki ki ha taha, pe ko hoku fakamālō ki he ngaahi tamapua kuo tongi.
9The things that were first, behold they are come: and new things do I declare: before they spring forth, I will make you head them.
9Vakai, kuo hoko ʻae ngaahi meʻa muʻa, pea ʻoku ou fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa foʻou: ʻi he teʻeki ke hoko ʻoku ou fakahā ia kiate kimoutolu.
10Sing ye to the Lora a new song, his praise is from the ends of the earth: you that go down to the sea, and all that are therein: ye islands, and ye inhabitants of them.
10Hiva kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae hiva foʻou, pea mo hono fakamālō mei he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he tahi, pea mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai; ʻae ngaahi motu, mo e kakai ʻoku nofo ai.
11Let the desert and the cities thereof be exalted: Cedar shall dwell in houses: ye inhabitants of Petra, give praise, they shall cry from the top of the mountains.
11Tuku ke hiki hake honau leʻo ʻe he toafa mo e ngaahi kolo, ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga ʻoku ʻi Keta: tuku ke hiva ʻae ngaahi kakai ʻoe maka, tuku ke nau kalanga mei he tumutumu ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga.
12They shall give glory to the Lord, and shall declare his praise in the islands.
12Tuku ke nau ʻatu ʻae ongoongolelei kia Sihova, pea fakahā hono fakamālō ʻi he ngaahi motu.
13The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, as a man of war shall he stir up zeal: he shall shout and cry: he shall prevail against his enemies.
13ʻE hāʻele atu ʻa Sihova ʻo hangē ko e tangata mālohi ʻaupito, te ne ueʻi hono houhau ʻo hangē ko e tangata ʻoku toʻa lahi: te ne kalanga, ʻio, ʻo kalanga mālohi, te ne lavaʻi hono ngaahi fili.
14I have always held my peace, I have I kept silence, I have been patient, I will speak now as a woman in labour: I will destroy, and swallow up at once.
14“Kuo fuoloa mo ʻeku fakalongo pe; naʻaku nofo pe, ʻo taʻofi au: ka te u tangi ni ʻo hangē ha fefine langā; te u fakaʻauha mo maumauʻi hifo fakataha.
15I will lay waste the mountains and hills, and will make all their grass to wither: and I will turn rivers into islands, and will dry up the standing pools.
15Te u ngaohi ke lala ʻae ngaahi moʻunga mo e potu tafungofunga, pea fakamōmoa ʻae ngaahi ʻakau iiki; pea te u ngaohi ʻae ngaahi vaitafe ko e ngaahi motu, pea te u fakamōmoa mo e ngaahi anovai.
16And I will lead the blind into the way which they know not: and in the paths which they were ignorant of I will make them walk: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight: these things have I done to them, and have not forsaken them.
16Pea te u ʻomi ʻae kui ʻi he hala naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo; te u tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi hala naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ki ai: te u ngaohi ʻae poʻuli ko e maama ʻi honau ʻao, mo e ngaahi meʻa pikopiko ke totonu. Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni te u fai kiate kinautolu, ka e ʻikai liʻaki ʻakinautolu.
17They are turned back: let them be greatly confounded, that trust in a graven thing, that say to a molten thing: You are our god.
17“ʻE fakafoki ki mui ʻakinautolu, ʻe mā lahi, ʻakinautolu ʻoku falala ki he ngaahi tamapua kuo tongi, ʻakinautolu ʻoku pehē ki he ngaahi fakatātā kuo haka, ‘Ko homau ʻotua ʻakimoutolu.’
18Hear, ye deaf, and, ye blind, behold that you may see.
18“Fanongo, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku tuli; pea sio, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku kui, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻā.
19Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, but he to whom I have sent my messengers? Who is blind, but he that is sold? or who is blind, but the servant of the Lord?
19Ko hai ʻoku kui, ka ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki? Pe tuli, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku talafekau ʻaia naʻaku fekau? Ko hai ʻoku kui ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku haohaoa, pea kui ʻo hangē ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova?
20Thou that seest many things, wilt thou not observe them? thou that hast ears open, wilt thou not hear?
20ʻOku ke mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa lahi, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke tokangaʻi ia; ʻo fakaava ʻae telinga, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke fanongo.
21And the Lord was willing to sanctify him, and to magnify the law, and exalt it.
21ʻOku fiemālie lahi ʻa Sihova koeʻuhi ko ʻene māʻoniʻoni ʻaʻana; te ne hakeakiʻi ʻae fono, pea ngaohi ke ongoongolelei ia.
22But this is a people that is robbed and wasted: they are all the snare of young men, and they are hid in the houses of prisons: they are made a prey, and there is none to deliver them: a spoil, and there is none that saith: Restore.
22Ka ko e kakai eni kuo faʻao ʻenau ngaahi meʻa, pea kuo vetea ʻakinautolu; kuo moʻua ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi luo, pea kuo fufū ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fale fakapōpula: ʻoku pau ke pōpula ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamoʻui; kuo faʻao ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻe ha taha, ‘Ke toe ʻomi.’
23Who is there among you that will give ear to this, that will attend and hearken for times to come?
23Ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu te ne tokanga ki he meʻa ni? Ko hai te ne fakafanongo pea ongoʻi ʻi he kuonga ʻe hoko mai?
24Who hath given Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to robbers? hath not the Lord himself, against whom we have sinned? And they would not walk in his ways, and they have not hearkened to his law.
24Ko hai naʻe tuku ʻa Sēkope ke vetea, pea mo ʻIsileli ki he kau kaihaʻa? ʻIkai ko Sihova, ʻaia kuo tau fai hala ki ai? He naʻe ʻikai te nau fie ʻeveʻeva ʻi hono ngaahi hala, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau talangofua ki heʻene fono.
25And he hath poured out upon him the indignation of his fury, and a strong battle, and hath burnt him round about, and he knew not: and set him on fire, and he understood not.
25Ko ia kuo ne lilingi kiate ia ʻae kakaha ʻo hono houhau, pea mo e mālohi ʻoe tau: pea kuo ne tutu ia ʻo takatakai, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa ʻilo; pea naʻe vela ia, ka naʻe ʻikai tokanga hono loto ki ai.”
