1The Lord shewed me: and behold two baskets full of figs, set before the temple of the Lord: after that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away Jechonias the son of Joakim the king of Juda, and his chief men, and the craftsmen, and engravers of Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
1Naʻe fakahā ha meʻa kiate au ʻe Sihova, pea vakai, ko e kato fiki ʻe ua naʻe tuku ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, ʻi he hili hono fetuku fakapōpula ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻa Sekonia ko e foha ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea mo e ngaahi houʻeiki ʻo Siuta, mo e kau tufunga, mo e kau tufunga ukamea, mei Selūsalema, pea ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki Papilone.
2One basket had very good figs, like the figs of the first season: and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, because they were bad.
2Ko e ngaahi fiki lelei ʻaupito ʻi he kato ʻe taha, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fiki ʻoku tomuʻa momoho: pea naʻe ʻi he kato ʻe taha ʻae ngaahi fiki kovi ʻaupito, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa kai, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau kovi.
3And the Lord said to me: What seest thou, Jeremias? And I said: Figs, the good figs, very good: and the bad figs, very bad, which cannot be eaten because they are bad.
3Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Selemaia, ko e hā ʻoku ke mamata ki ai?” Pea naʻaku pehē, “Ko e ngaahi fiki: ko e ngaahi fiki lelei, ʻoku lelei ʻaupito; pea ko ia ʻoku kovi ʻoku kovi ʻaupito, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa kai, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau kovi.”
4And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
4¶ Pea naʻe toe hoko kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
5Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Juda, whom I have sent forth out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for their own good.
5ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Te u fakaʻilonga pehē ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fiki lelei, ʻakinautolu ʻo Siuta kuo ʻave fakapōpula, ʻakinautolu kuo u kapusi ʻi he fonua ni ki he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia koeʻuhi ke nau lelei ai.
6And I will set my eyes upon them to be pacified, and I will bring them again into this land: and I will be their God: and I will build them up, and not pull them down: and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
6He te u fakahanga hoku fofonga kiate kinautolu koeʻuhi ke nau lelei, pea te u toe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ni: pea te u langaʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai vete hifo; pea te u tō ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai taʻaki ʻakinautolu.
7And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: because they shall return to me with their whole heart.
7Pea te u foaki kiate kinautolu ha loto ke nau ʻiloʻi au, koeʻuhi ko au ko Sihova: pea te nau hoko ko hoku kakai, pea te u hoko ko honau ʻOtua: he te nau tafoki kiate au ʻaki honau loto kotoa.
8And as the very bad figs, that cannot be eaten, because they are bad: thus saith the Lord: So will I give Sedecias the king of Juda, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that have remained in this city, and that dwell in the land of Egypt.
8¶ “Pea hangē ko e ngaahi fiki kovi, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa kai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau kovi; ʻoku pehē moʻoni ʻe Sihova, Te u foaki pehē ʻa Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea mo hono ngaahi houʻeiki, pea mo hono toe ʻo Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku toe ʻi he fonua, pea ko kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
9And I will deliver them up to vexation, and affliction, to all the kingdoms of the earth: to be a reproach, and a byword, and a proverb, and to be a curse in all places, to which I have cast them out.
9Pea te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻave ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani ki he mamahi, mo e fakamā, mo e ongoongo kovi, ko e manukiʻanga mo e malaʻia, ʻi he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻaia te u kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai.
10And I will send among them the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: till they be consumed out of the land which I gave to them, and their fathers.
10Pea te u fekau kiate kinautolu ʻae heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, kaeʻoua ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei he funga fonua ʻaia naʻaku foaki kiate kinautolu mo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.”
