Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Thus saith the Lord: Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool: what is this house that you will build to me? and what is this place of my rest?
1ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Ko hoku ʻafioʻanga ʻae langi, pea ko hoku tuʻuʻanga vaʻe ʻa māmani: kofaʻā ia ʻae fale ʻoku mou langa kiate au? Pea kofaʻā ia ʻae potu ʻo ʻeku mālōlō?
2My hand made all these things, and all these things were made, saith the Lord. But to whom shall I have respect, but to him that is poor and little, and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my words?
2He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Ko e ngaahi meʻa na kotoa pē naʻe ngaohi ʻe hoku nima, pea kuo ʻi ai pe ʻae ngaahi meʻa ko ia: ka te u vakai ki he tangata ni, ʻio, kiate ia ʻoku masiva pea ʻoku loto fakatomala moʻoni, pea ʻoku tetetete ʻi heʻeku folofola.
3He that sacrificeth an ox, is as if he slew a man: he that killeth a sheep in sacrifice, as if he should brain a dog: he that offereth an oblation, as if he should offer swine’s blood; he that remembereth incense, as if he should bless an idol. All these things have they chosen in their ways, and their soul is delighted in their abominations.
3Ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻae pulu ʻoku hangē ia kuo ne tāmateʻi ha tangata; ko ia ʻoku ne feilaulau ʻaki ha lami, ʻo hangē kuo ne tuʻusi ke motu ʻae kia ʻoe kulī; ko ia ʻoku ne ʻatu ha feilaulau, ʻoku hangē kuo ne ʻatu ʻae toto ʻoe puaka; ko ia ʻoku ne tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala, ʻo hangē kuo ne tāpuaki ha tamapua. ʻIo, kuo nau fili honau ngaahi hala, pea ʻoku fiefia honau laumālie ʻi heʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakalielia.
4Wherefore I also will choose their mockeries, and will bring upon them the things they feared: because I called, and there was none that would answer; I have spoken, and they heard not; and they have done evil in my eyes, and have chosen the things that displease me.
4Pea ko au foki te u tuʻutuʻuni ʻenau ngaahi mamahi, pea ko e meʻa ʻoku nau manavahē ki ai te u ʻomi kiate kinautolu; koeʻuhi ʻi heʻeku ui, naʻe ʻikai tali ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi heʻeku lea, naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo, kā naʻa nau fai kovi ʻi hoku ʻao, pea naʻa nau fili ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te u fiemālie ai.”
5Hear the word of the Lord, you that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hate you, and cast you out for my name’s sake, have said: Let the Lord be glorified, and we shall see in your joy: but they shall be confounded.
5Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku tetetete ki heʻene folofola; “Ko homou ngaahi kāinga naʻe fehiʻa kiate kimoutolu, ʻo kapusi kituʻa ʻakimoutolu koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa, naʻa nau pehē, ‘Ke ongoongoleleiʻia ʻa Sihova: ka e ʻafio ia ko homou fakafiefia,’ pea ʻe mā ʻakinautolu.
6A voice of the people from the city, a voice from the temple, the voice of the Lord that rendereth recompense to his enemies.
6Ko e leʻo ʻoe longoaʻa mei he kolo, ko e leʻo mei he falelotu lahi, ko e leʻo ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ne totongi totonu ki hono ngaahi fili.
7Before she was in labour, she brought forth; before her time came to be delivered, she brought forth a man child.
7“ʻI he teʻeki ai ke langā, naʻa ne fāʻeleʻi, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke mamahi ia, naʻe fāʻeleʻi ia ʻae tamasiʻi tangata.
8Who hath ever heard such a thing? and who hath seen the like to this? shall the earth bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be brought forth at once, because Sion hath been in labour, and hath brought forth her children?
8Ko hai kuo ne fanongo ki ha meʻa pehē? Ko hai kuo ne mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa pehē? ʻE faʻa ngaohi ʻa māmani ke fanauʻi ʻi he ʻaho pe taha? Pe ʻe fanauʻi fakafokifā ha puleʻanga? He naʻe kamata langa pe ʻa Saione, pea fanauʻi leva ʻa ʻene fānau.
9Shall not I that make others to bring forth children, myself bring forth, saith the Lord? shall I, that give generation to others, be barren, saith the Lord thy God?
9ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, He te u ʻomi ke fanauʻi, ka e ʻikai te u ngaohi ke fāʻele?” ʻOku pehē ʻe ho ʻOtua, He te u ngaohi ke fānau, kae tāpuni ʻae manāva ?
10Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her.
10“Ke fiefia ʻakimoutolu mo Selūsalema, pea nekeneka mo ia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻofa kiate ia: mou fiefia ʻi he fiefia mo ia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamahi koeʻuhi ko ia:
11That you may suck, and be filled with the breasts of her consolations: that you may milk out, and flow with delights, from the abundance of her glory.
11Koeʻuhi ke mou huhu, pea mākona ʻi he huʻahuhu ʻo ʻene fakafiemālie? Koeʻuhi ke mou mimisi, pea fiefia ʻi hono lahi ʻo hono nāunau.
12For thus saith the Lord: Behold I will bring upon her as it were a river of peace, and as an overflowing torrent the glory of the Gentiles, which you shall suck; you shall be carried at the breasts, and upon the knees they shall caress you.
12He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, te u tuku ʻae melino kiate ia ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe, pea ko e nāunau ʻoe Senitaile ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe laulahi: pea te mou toki huhu, ʻe fua ʻakimoutolu ʻi hono vakavaka, pea lulululu ʻe hono ongo tui.
13As one whom the mother caresseth, so will I comfort you, and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
13ʻO hangē ko e tokotaha ʻoku fakafiemālie ki ai ʻene faʻē, ʻe pehē ʻeku fakafiemālie kiate koe; pea ʻe fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi Selūsalema.”
14You shall see and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb, and the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants, and he shall be angry with his enemies.
14Pea ka mou ka mamata ki he meʻa ni, ʻe fiefia homou loto, pea moʻui homou hui ʻo hangē ko e ʻakau mata: pea ʻe hā ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo hono houhau ki hono ngaahi fili.
15For behold the Lord will come with fire, and his chariots are like a whirlwind, to render his wrath in indignation, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
15Kae vakai, ʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Sihova mo e afi, pea hangē ko e ʻahiohio ʻa ʻene ngaahi saliote, ke ʻatu hono houhau ʻi he mālohi, pea mo ʻene valoki ʻaki ʻae ulo ʻoe afi.
16For the Lord shall judge by fire, and by his sword unto all flesh, and the slain of the Lord shall be many.
16Koeʻuhi ʻe fai ʻe Sihova mo e kakano kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae afi mo ʻene heletā: pea ko e tokolahi ʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova.
17They that were sanctified, and thought themselves clean in the gardens behind the gate within, they that did eat swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse: they shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
17ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE ʻauha fakataha, ʻakinautolu ʻoku teuteu mo fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngoue ʻi he tuʻa ʻakau ʻe taha ʻi he lotolotonga, ʻo kai ʻae kakano ʻoe puaka, pea mo e meʻa fakalielia, pea mo e kumā.
18But I know their works, and their thoughts: I come that I may gather them together with all nations and tongues: and they shall come and shall see my glory.
18“He ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻenau ngaahi ngāue pea mo ʻenau ngaahi mahalo: ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, te u tānaki ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē mo e lea kehekehe kotoa pē; pea te nau haʻu, ʻo mamata ki hoku nāunau.
19And I will set a sign among them, and I will send of them that shall be saved, to the Gentiles into the sea, into Africa, and Lydia them that draw the bow: into Italy, and Greece, to the islands afar off, to them that have not heard of me, and have not seen my glory. And they shall declare my glory to the Gentiles:
19“Pea te u ai ha fakaʻilonga ʻiate kinautolu, pea te u fekau ʻakinautolu ʻoku hao ʻiate kinautolu ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, ki Tasisi, mo Puli, mo Luti, ʻakinautolu ʻoku teke ʻae kaufana, ki Tupale, mo Savani, ki he ngaahi motu mamaʻo, ʻaia ʻoku teʻeki ai ke fanongo ki hoku ongoongo, pea teʻeki ai ke mamata ki hoku nāunau; pea te nau fakahā hoku nāunau ki he kakai Senitaile.
20And they shall bring all your brethren out of all nations for a gift to the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and on mules, and in coaches, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as if the children of Israel should bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
20Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, te nau ʻomi homou ngaahi kāinga kotoa pē ko e feilaulau kia Sihova mei he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi he fanga hoosi, pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa teka, pea ʻi he meʻa fata, pea ʻi he fanga miuli, pea ʻi he fanga manu veʻe vave, ki hoku moʻunga tapu ko Selūsalema, ʻo hangē naʻe ʻomi ʻe he fānau ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae feilaulau ʻi he ipu maʻa ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
21And I will take of them to be priests, and Levites, saith the Lord.
21Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te u fokotuʻu ʻiate kinautolu foki ʻae kau taulaʻeiki pea mo e kau Livai.”
22For as the new heavens, and the new earth, which I will make to stand before me, saith the Lord: so shall your seed stand, and your name.
22ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻO hangē ko e tuʻumaʻu ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻae ngaahi langi foʻou pea mo e maama foʻou, ʻaia te u ngaohi, ʻe pehē ʻae tuʻumaʻu ʻo homou hako mo homou hingoa.
23And there shall be month after month, and sabbath after sabbath: and all flesh shall come to adore before my face, saith the Lord.
23Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE haʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ke lotu ʻi hoku ʻao, mei he māhina foʻou ʻe taha ʻo aʻu ki he māhina foʻou ʻe taha, pea mei he ʻaho tapu ʻe taha ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho tapu ʻe taha.
24And they shall go out, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched: and they shall be a loathsome sight to all flesh.
24“Pea te nau ʻalu atu, pea sio ki he ngaahi ʻangaʻanga ʻoe kakai naʻe angatuʻu kiate au: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai mate honau ʻuanga, pea ʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ʻenau afi; pea te nau hoko ko e fehiʻanekina ki he kakai kotoa pē.”
