1“Fanongo, ʻE ʻIsileli: ʻoku ke ʻalu he ʻaho ni ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, ke ʻalu ke maʻu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku lahi hake mo mālohi lahi ʻiate koe, ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻoku lahi, mo mole ki langi ʻa honau ʻā.
1Hear, O Israel: Thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,
2Ko e kakai lalahi mo lōloa, ko e fānau ʻae kau ʻAnaki ʻakinautolu ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi, pea kuo ke fanongo ʻae lau ki ai, ʻo pehē, Ko hai ʻe faʻa tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAnaki!
2A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say , Who can stand before the children of Anak!
3Ko ia ke ke ʻilo he ʻaho ni, ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ko ia ia ʻoku ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe; hangē ko e afi fakaʻauha te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe tulaki hifo ʻe ia ʻakinautolu ʻi ho ʻao: ko ia te ke kapusi ai ʻakinautolu kituʻa, ʻo fakaʻauha vave ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kiate koe.
3Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God is he which goeth over before thee; as a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the LORD hath said unto thee.
4ʻOua naʻa ke lea ʻe koe ʻi ho loto, ʻoka hili hono kapusi kituʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua mei ho ʻao, ʻo pehē, Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku māʻoniʻoni ko ia kuo ʻomi ai au ʻe Sihova ke u maʻu ʻae fonua ni: ka ko e meʻa ʻi he angakovi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ni, ko ia ʻoku kapusi ai ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu kituʻa mei ho ʻao.
4Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee.
5ʻOku ʻikai ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo māʻoniʻoni, pe ʻi he angatonu ʻo ho loto, ʻoku ke ʻalu ke maʻu honau fonua: ka ko e meʻa ʻi he angakovi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ni ko ia ʻoku kapusi ai kituʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua mei ho ʻao, pea koeʻuhi ke ne fakamoʻoni ki he folofola ʻaia naʻe fuakava ai ʻa Sihova ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai, ko ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo Sēkope.
5Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
6Ko ia ke ke ʻilo, ʻoku ʻikai foaki ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻae fonua lelei ni kiate koe ke ke maʻu ia ʻi hoʻo māʻoniʻoni: he ko e kakai kia kekeva ʻakimoutolu.
6Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
7¶ “Ke ke manatu, pea ʻoua naʻa fakangalongaloʻi, ʻa hoʻo fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he toafa: talu ʻae ʻaho naʻa ke hiki ai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo aʻu ki hoʻomou hoko ki he potu ni, kuo mou fai angatuʻu kia Sihova.
7¶ Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD .
8Pea ʻi Holepi foki naʻa mou fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova, ko ia naʻe houhau ai ʻa Sihova kiate kimoutolu ke fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu.
8Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you.
9ʻI heʻeku ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ke maʻu ʻae ongo maka lafalafa, ʻae ongo maka ʻoe fuakava ʻaia naʻe fai ʻe Sihova mo kimoutolu, pea ne u nofo ʻi he moʻunga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe ʻikai te u kai mā pe inu vai:
9When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
10Pea naʻe tuku mai kiate au ʻe Sihova ʻae ongo maka lafalafa kuo tohi ʻaki ʻae louhiʻi nima ʻoe ʻOtua; pea naʻe tohi ʻi ai ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe folofola ai ʻa Sihova kiate kimoutolu ʻi he moʻunga mei he lotolotonga ʻoe afi ʻi he ʻaho ʻae fakataha.
10And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
11Pea hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe tuku mai kiate au ʻe Sihova ʻae ongo maka lafalafa, ʻio, ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻoe fuakava.
11And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
12Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ‘Tuʻu hake pea ke ʻalu vave hifo mei heni; he ko ho kakai ʻaia kuo ke ʻomi kituʻa mei ʻIsipite kuo nau fakahalaʻi ʻakinautolu; kuo nau tafoki leva mei he hala ʻaia naʻaku fekau ai ʻakinautolu; kuo nau ngaohi maʻanautolu ʻae meʻa fakatātā kuo haka.’
12And the LORD said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.
13Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au foki, ʻo pehē, ‘Kuo u mamata ki he kakai ni, pea vakai, ko e kakai kia kekeva ʻakinautolu:
13Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
14Tuku ai pe au, koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, pea tāmateʻi honau hingoa mei he lalo langi: pea te u fakatupu ʻiate koe ha hako mālohi mo lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu.’
14Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
15Pea naʻaku tafoki ʻo ʻalu hifo ai mei he moʻunga, pea naʻe vela ʻae moʻunga ʻi he afi: pea naʻe ʻi hoku nima ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻoe fuakava.
15So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
16Pea naʻaku sio, pea vakai, kuo mou fai angahala kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, pea kuo mou ngaohi ha fakatātā haka ki he pulu mui: ne mou tafoki vave mei he hala ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu.
16And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you.
17Pea naʻaku ʻave ʻae ongo maka lafalafa ʻo lī ia mei hoku ongo nima pea naʻe maumau ia ʻi homou ʻao.
17And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
18Pea naʻaku fakafoʻohifo ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku muʻaki fai, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu: naʻe ʻikai te u kai ha mā, pe inu ha vai, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala ʻaia naʻa mou angahala ai, ʻi he fai kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke fakatupu hono houhau.
18And I fell down before the LORD , as at the first, forty days and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD , to provoke him to anger.
19He naʻaku manavahē ʻi he houhau pea ʻi he houhau vela, ʻaia naʻe houhau ʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu ke fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu. Ka naʻe tokanga ʻa Sihova kiate au ʻi he kuonga ko ia foki.
19For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.
20Pea naʻe houhau lahi ʻa Sihova kia ʻElone ke fakaʻauha ia: pea naʻaku lotua ʻa ʻElone foki ʻi he kuonga ko ia.
20And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.
21Pea ne u ʻave hoʻomou angahala, ko e ʻuhiki pulu naʻa mou ngaohi, pea tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi, pea malamalaki ia, peau momomomosi ia ke iiki ʻaupito, ʻo tatau mo e efuefu: pea naʻaku lī ʻa hono efuefu ki he vaitafe naʻe ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga.
21And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.
22Pea ʻi Tapela, mo Masa, pea ʻi Kipiloti-Hateva, naʻa mou fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova.
22And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked the LORD to wrath.
23Pea ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova ʻakimoutolu mei Ketesi-Pania, ʻo pehē, Mou ʻalu hake ʻo maʻu ʻae fonua ʻaia kuo u foaki kiate kimoutolu: naʻa mou angatuʻu ai ki he fekau ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou tui kiate ia, pe tokanga ki hono leʻo.
23Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.
24Kuo mou angatuʻu kia Sihova talu mei he ʻaho naʻaku ʻilo ai ʻakimoutolu.
24Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I knew you.
25Naʻe pehē pe ʻa ʻeku fakatōmapeʻe au ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku tomuʻa fai ia; ko e meʻa ʻi he pehē ʻe Sihova te ne fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu.
25Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty nights, as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he would destroy you.
26Ko ia ne u lotu ai kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke fakaʻauha ho kakai mo ho tofiʻa, ʻaia kuo ke huhuʻi ʻi hoʻo māfimafi, ʻaia kuo ke ʻomi mei ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻae nima mālohi.
26I prayed therefore unto the LORD , and said, O Lord GOD , destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
27Manatu ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ko ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo Sēkope; ʻoua naʻa ke ʻafio ki he talangataʻa ʻae kakai ni, pe ki heʻenau angakovi, pe ko ʻenau angahala:
27Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
28Telia naʻa lau pehē ʻe he fonua naʻa ke ʻomi ʻakimautolu mei ai, Ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai mafai ʻe Sihova ke ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ʻaia naʻa ne talaʻofa kiate kinautolu, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ʻita kiate kinautolu, ko ia kuo ne ʻomi ai ʻakinautolu kituaʻā ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa.
28Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.
29Ka ko e moʻoni ko ho kakai ʻakinautolu mo ho tofiʻa, ʻaia naʻa ke ʻomi kituaʻā ʻi ho mālohi lahi pea ʻi ho nima kuo mafao.’
29Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
