Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Vakai mai, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku koloaʻia, tangi mo fakatangiloloa koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi mamahi ʻe hoko kiate kimoutolu.
1Agite nunc divites, plorate ululantes in miseriis vestris, quæ advenient vobis.
2Kuo popo ʻa hoʻomou koloa, pea kuo aneanea hoʻomou ngaahi kofu.
2Divitiæ vestræ putrefactæ sunt, et vestimenta vestra a tineis comesta sunt.
3Kuo ʻumeʻumea ʻa hoʻomou koula mo e siliva; pea ko hono ʻumeʻumea ʻo ia ʻe fakamoʻoni ia kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻe kai ʻe ia ʻa homou kakano ʻo hangē ko e afi. Kuo mou fokotuʻu ʻae koloa ki he ngaahi ʻaho fakamui.
3Aurum et argentum vestrum æruginavit: et ærugo eorum in testimonium vobis erit, et manducabit carnes vestras sicut ignis. Thesaurizastis vobis iram in novissimis diebus.
4Vakai, ko e totongi ʻoe kau ngāue, kuo nau tuʻusi hoʻomou ngaahi ngoue, ʻaia kuo mou taʻofia ʻi he kākā, ʻoku tangi ia: pea ko e ngaahi tangi ʻokinautolu kuo fai ʻae tuʻusi, kuo hū ki he telinga ʻoe ʻEiki ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi.
4Ecce merces operariorum, qui messuerunt regiones vestras, quæ fraudata est a vobis, clamat: et clamor eorum in aures Domini sabbaoth introivit.
5Kuo mou moʻui fakafiemālie kovi, pea holi kovi ʻi māmani; kuo mou fangapesi homou loto, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe feilaulau.
5Epulati estis super terram, et in luxuriis enutristis corda vestra in die occisionis.
6Kuo mou fakahalaia mo tāmateʻi ʻae Angatonu; pea ʻoku ʻikai ke taʻofi ʻe ia kiate kimoutolu.
6Addixistis, et occidistis justum, et non resistit vobis.
7Ko ia, ʻe kāinga, ke mou faʻa kātaki, aʻu ki he hāʻele mai ʻoe ʻEiki. Vakai, ʻoku tatali ʻae tangata tauhi ngoue ki he fua lelei ʻoe kelekele, pea ʻoku tatali fuoloa ia ki ai, kaeʻoua ke ne maʻu ʻae ʻuha muʻa mo e ʻuha mui.
7Patientes igitur estote, fratres, usque ad adventum Domini. Ecce agricola exspectat pretiosum fructum terræ, patienter ferens donec accipiat temporaneum et serotinum.
8Ke faʻa kātaki foki ʻakimoutolu; ke fakamālohi homou loto: he ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻo ofi ʻae hāʻele mai ʻoe ʻEiki.
8Patientes igitur estote et vos, et confirmate corda vestra: quoniam adventus Domini appropinquavit.
9ʻE kāinga, ʻoua naʻa felāungaʻaki ʻakimoutolu, telia naʻa mou malaʻia: vakai, ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻae fakamaau.
9Nolite ingemiscere, fratres, in alterutrum, ut non judicemini. Ecce judex ante januam assistit.
10ʻE hoku kāinga, tokanga ki he kau palōfita, kuo nau lea ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki, ko e faʻifaʻitakiʻanga ʻoe kātaki ʻoe mamahi, mo e faʻa ʻūkuma.
10Exemplum accipite, fratres, exitus mali, laboris, et patientiæ, prophetas qui locuti sunt in nomine Domini.
11Vakai, ʻoku tau lau ʻoku monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku faʻa kātaki. Kuo mou fanongo ki he faʻa kātaki ʻa Siope, pea kuo mou mamata ki hono ngataʻanga mei he ʻEiki; he ʻoku ʻaloʻofa ʻaupito ʻae ʻEiki, pea manavaʻofa ongongofua.
11Ecce beatificamus eos qui sustinuerunt. Sufferentiam Job audistis, et finem Domini vidistis, quoniam misericors Dominus est, et miserator.
12ʻE hoku kāinga, sino ʻoe meʻa ke ʻoua ʻe fuakava, ʻoua ʻe fai ki he langi, pe ki māmani, pe ʻi ha fuakava kehe ʻe taha: ka ke “ʻIo” pe, ʻi hoʻomou “ʻIo;” mo “ʻIkai,” ʻi hoʻomou “ʻIkai;” telia naʻa mou tō ki he malaʻia.
12Ante omnia autem, fratres mei, nolite jurare, neque per cælum, neque per terram, neque aliud quodcumque juramentum. Sit autem sermo vester: Est, est: Non, non: ut non sub judicio decidatis.
13ʻOku ai ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku mamahi? Ke lotu ia. ʻOku ai ha taha ʻoku fiefia? Ke hiva ʻaki ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi saame.
13Tristatur aliquis vestrum? oret. Æquo animo est? psallat.
14ʻOku ai ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku mahaki? Ke tala ia ki he kau mātuʻa ʻoe siasi; pea ke nau lotua ia, ʻo tākai ʻaki ia ʻae lolo ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki:
14Infirmatur quis in vobis? inducat presbyteros ecclesiæ, et orent super eum, ungentes eum oleo in nomine Domini:
15Pea ko e lotu ʻi he tui, ʻe fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻae mahaki, pea ʻe fokotuʻu ia ʻe he ʻEiki; pea kapau naʻe fai ʻe ia ha angahala, ʻe fakamolemolea ia.
15et oratio fidei salvabit infirmum, et alleviabit eum Dominus: et si in peccatis sit, remittentur ei.
16Ke fetoutou feveteʻaki hoʻomou ngaahi angahala kiate kimoutolu, pea felotuaʻaki ʻakimoutolu, ke mou moʻui. Ko e lotu fakamātoato ʻoe tangata māʻoniʻoni ʻoku ʻaonga lahi.
16Confitemini ergo alterutrum peccata vestra, et orate pro invicem ut salvemini: multum enim valet deprecatio justi assidua.
17Ko ʻIlaisiā, ko e tangata ia naʻe anga tatau mo kitautolu, pea naʻe lotu fakamātoato ia, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻuha: pea naʻe ʻikai tō ha ʻuha ki he kelekele ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu mo e māhina ʻe ono.
17Elias homo erat similis nobis passibilis: et oratione oravit ut non plueret super terram, et non pluit annos tres, et menses sex.
18Pea toe lotu ia, pea naʻe tuku mai ʻe he langi ʻae ʻuha, pea tupu ai mei he kelekele ʻa hono fua.
18Et rursum oravit: et cælum dedit pluviam, et terra dedit fructum suum.
19ʻE kāinga, kapau ʻe hē hamou tokotaha mei he moʻoni, pea fakafoki mai ia ʻe ha taha;
19Fratres mei, si quis ex vobis erraverit a veritate, et converterit quis eum:
20Ke ʻilo ʻe ia, ko ia ʻoku ne fakafoki mai ʻae angahala mei hono hala kehe, ʻoku ne fakamoʻui ha laumālie mei he mate, pea ʻoku ne ʻufiʻufi foki ʻae ngaahi angahala lahi.
20scire debet quoniam qui converti fecerit peccatorem ab errore viæ suæ, salvabit animam ejus a morte, et operiet multitudinem peccatorum.
