1Thus saith the Lord: What is this bill of the divorce of your mother, with which I have put her away? or who is my creditor, to whom I sold you: behold you are sold for your iniquities, and for your wicked deeds have I put your mother away.
1ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Kofaʻā ia ʻae tohi ʻoe fakamavae ʻo hoʻo faʻē, ʻaia kuo u tukuange? Pea ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu naʻe totonu ke u totongi ki ai kuo u fakatau ʻakimoutolu ki ai? Vakai, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi hia kuo mou fakatau ʻakimoutolu, pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala ko ia kuo tukuange ai hoʻomou faʻē.
2Because I came, and there was not a man: I called, and there was none that would hear. Is my hand shortened and become little, that I cannot redeem? or is there no strength in me to deliver? Behold at my rebuke I will make the sea a desert, I will turn the rivers into dry land: the fishes shall rot for want of water, and shall die for thirst.
2Ko e hā, ʻi heʻeku haʻu, naʻe ʻikai ai ha tangata? ʻI heʻeku ui, naʻe ʻikai ha taha ke lea mai? He kuo fakanounou hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa faʻa huhuʻi ia? Pe ʻoku ʻikai haku mālohi ke fakamoʻui? Vakai, ʻi heʻeku valoki ʻoku ou fakamōmoa ʻae tahi, ʻoku ou liliu ʻae ngaahi vaitafe ko e toafa: kuo namuaʻa ʻenau ngaahi ika, pea mate ʻi he fieinu koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ha vai.
3I will clothe the heavens with darkness, and will make sackcloth their covering.
3ʻOku ou fakakofuʻaki ʻae langi ʻae fakapoʻuli, pea ʻoku ou ngaohi ʻae tauangaʻa ko honau kofu.”
4The Lord hath given me a learned tongue, that I should know how to uphold by word him that is weary: he wakeneth in the morning, in the morning he wakeneth my ear, that I may hear him as a master.
4Kuo foaki kiate au ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻae ʻelelo ʻoe poto, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo ke lea ʻaki ha lea ʻi he kuonga totonu kiate ia ʻoku vaivai: ʻoku ne ʻa ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē, ke ne fafangu hoku telinga ke ongoʻi ʻo hangē ko e poto.
5The Lord God hath opened my ear, and I do not resist: I have not gone back.
5Kuo fakaava ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻa hoku telinga, pea naʻe ʻikai te u angatuʻu, pe foki kimui.
6I have given my body to the strikers, and my cheeks to them that plucked them: I have not turned away my face from them that rebuked me, and spit upon me.
6Ne u ʻatu hoku tuʻa ki he kau taaʻi, pea mo hoku kouʻahe kiate kinautolu naʻe fusi ʻae kava: naʻe ʻikai te u fufū hoku mata mei he mā mo e ʻaʻanu.
7The Lord God is my helper, therefore am I not confounded: therefore have I set my face as a most hard rock, and I know that I shall not be confounded.
7He ko e ʻEiki ko Sihova ko hoku tokoni; ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai te u puputuʻu: ko ia kuo u ngaohi hoku mata ke hangē ko e maka afi, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻe ʻikai te u mā.
8He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me? let us stand together, who is my adversary? let him come near to me.
8ʻOku ofi mai ʻaia ʻoku ne fakatonuhiaʻi au; ko hai te ne fai mo au? Ke ma tutuʻu fakataha: ko hai ʻoku fakafili kiate au? Tuku ke ne ʻunuʻunu mai.
9Behold the Lord God is my helper: who is he that shall condemn me? Lo, they shall all be destroyed as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.
9Vakai, ʻe tokoniʻi au ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova; ko hai ia te ne fakahalaia au? Vakai, te nau hoko ʻo motuʻa ʻo hangē ko e kofu; ʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ane.
10Who is there among you that feareth the Lord, that heareth the voice of his servant, that hath walked in darkness, and hath no light? let him hope in the name of the Lord, and lean upon his God.
10Ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova, pea talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo ʻene tamaioʻeiki, ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he poʻuli, pea ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ha maama? Tuku ke ne falala ki he huafa ʻo Sihova, pea faʻaki ki hono ʻOtua.
11Behold all you that kindle a fire, encompassed with dames, walk in the light of your fire, and in the dames which you have kindled: this is done to you by my hand, you shall sleep in sorrows.
11Vakai, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku tutu ʻae afi, pea kāpui ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi kalofiama: mou ʻeveʻeva ʻi he maama ʻo hoʻomou afi, pea ʻi he ngaahi kalofiama kuo mou tutu, ka te mou maʻu eni ʻi hoku nima; te mou tokoto hifo ʻi he mamahi.
