Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ongoʻi ʻe Sanipalate ʻoku mau langaʻi ʻae ʻā maka, naʻe ʻita lahi ia, pea ne fai lili lahi, ʻo ne manukiʻi ʻae kakai Siu.
1Factum est autem, cum audisset Sanaballat quod ædificaremus murum, iratus est valde: et motus nimis subsannavit Judæos,
2Pea naʻe lea ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono kāinga mo e tau ʻo Samēlia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e hā ia ʻoku fai ʻe he kakai Siu vaivai ni? He te nau fakamālohiʻi ʻakinautolu ke tau? Te nau fai ha feilaulau? He te nau fakaʻosi ia ʻi he ʻaho pe taha? Te nau fakaakeake ʻae ngaahi maka mei he ngaahi fokotuʻunga veve ʻaia kuo tutu?”
2et dixit coram fratribus suis, et frequentia Samaritanorum: Quid Judæi faciunt imbecilles? num dimittent eos gentes? num sacrificabunt, et complebunt in una die? numquid ædificare poterunt lapides de acervis pulveris, qui combusti sunt?
3Pea naʻe ofi kiate ia ʻa Topaia ko e tangata ʻAmoni, ʻo ne lea ʻo pehē, “ʻIo, ko ia ʻoku nau langa, ka ne ʻalu hake ai ha fokisi, te ne holoki hifo ʻenau ʻā maka.”
3Sed et Tobias Ammanites, proximus ejus, ait: Ædificent: si ascenderit vulpes, transiliet murum eorum lapideum.
4“ʻE homau ʻOtua ke ke fanongo: he kuo lumaʻi ʻakimautolu: pea ke fakatafoki honau manuki ki he ʻulu ʻonautolu, pea ke tuku ʻakinautolu ko e meʻa vete ʻi he fonua ʻoe fakapōpula:
4Audi, Deus noster, quia facti sumus despectui: converte opprobrium super caput eorum, et da eos in despectionem in terra captivitatis.
5Pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻufiʻufi ʻenau ngaahi hia, pea ʻoua naʻa fakamolemole ʻenau ngaahi angahala mei ho ʻao: he kuo nau fakatupu ʻa hoʻo houhau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau langa fale.”
5Ne operias iniquitatem eorum, et peccatum eorum coram facie tua non deleatur, quia irriserunt ædificantes.
6Naʻe pehē ʻemau langa ʻae ʻā maka pea naʻe fakahokohoko ke fakataha ʻae ʻā maka ʻo aʻu ki hono vaeuaʻanga: he naʻe ʻi he kakai ʻae loto fie ngāue.
6Itaque ædificavimus murum, et conjunximus totum usque ad partem dimidiam: et provocatum est cor populi ad operandum.
7¶ Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fanongo ʻe Topaia, mo e kau ʻAlepea, mo e kau ʻAmoni, mo e kau ʻAsitoti, ʻoku fakamaʻopoʻopo ʻae ngaahi ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, pea kuo kamata tāpuni hono ngaahi ava, naʻa nau ʻita lahi,
7Factum est autem, cum audisset Sanaballat, et Tobias, et Arabes, et Ammanitæ, et Azotii, quod obducta esset cicatrix muri Jerusalem, et quod cœpissent interrupta concludi, irati sunt nimis.
8ʻO nau alea fakataha kotoa pē ke nau haʻu ke tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema, koeʻuhi ke taʻofi hono fai.
8Et congregati sunt omnes pariter ut venirent, et pugnarent contra Jerusalem, et molirentur insidias.
9Ka naʻa mau fai ʻemau lotu ki homau ʻOtua, pea naʻe fakanofo ʻae kau leʻo ke vakai ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō, ko e meʻa ʻiate kinautolu.
9Et oravimus Deum nostrum, et posuimus custodes super murum die ac nocte contra eos.
10Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siuta, “ʻOku fakaʻaʻau ke siʻi ʻae mālohi ʻoe kau haʻamo, pea ʻoku lahi ʻae veve: ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te mau faʻa langa ʻae ʻā maka.”
10Dixit autem Judas: Debilitata est fortitudo portantis, et humus nimia est, et nos non poterimus ædificare murum.
11Pea naʻe pehē ʻe homau ngaahi fili, “ʻOua naʻa nau ʻilo pe mamata, kaeʻoua ke mau hoko atu ki honau lotolotonga, pea tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu, pea taʻofi ʻae ngāue.”
11Et dixerunt hostes nostri: Nesciant, et ignorent donec veniamus in medium eorum, et interficiamus eos, et cessare faciamus opus.
12Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he haʻu ʻae kau Siu naʻe nofo ofi kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau fakahā mai ʻo liunga hongofulu ʻenau te u tau mei he ngaahi potu kehekehe.
12Factum est autem venientibus Judæis qui habitabant juxta eos, et dicentibus nobis per decem vices, ex omnibus locis quibus venerant ad nos,
13¶ Ko ia naʻaku fakanofo ai ʻae kakai ʻo tatau mo honau ngaahi fale, ʻi he ngaahi potu ʻi lalo ʻituʻa ʻoe ʻā maka, pea ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, mo ʻenau ngaahi heletā, mo honau ngaahi tao, mo honau ngaahi kaufana.
13statui in loco post murum per circuitum populum in ordinem cum gladiis suis, et lanceis, et arcubus.
14Pea u vakai, mo tuʻu hake, pea u pehē ki he houʻeiki, pea ki he kau pule, pea ki hono toe ʻoe kakai, “ʻOua naʻa mou manavahē kiate kinautolu: manatu kia Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku lahi, mo fakamanavahē, pea mou tau koeʻuhi ko homou ngaahi kāinga, ko homou ngaahi foha, mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine, mo homou ngaahi uaifi, mo homou ngaahi fale.”
14Et perspexi atque surrexi: et aio ad optimates et magistratus, et ad reliquam partem vulgi: Nolite timere a facie eorum: Domini magni et terribilis mementote, et pugnate pro fratribus vestris, filiis vestris, et filiabus vestris, et uxoribus vestris, et domibus vestris.
15Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fanongo ʻe homau ngaahi fili kuo mau ongoʻi ia ʻo ʻilo, pea kuo fakataʻeaongaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻenau fakakaukau, naʻa mau toe liu mai kotoa pē ki he ʻā maka, ʻo taki taha ki heʻene ngāue.
15Factum est autem, cum audissent inimici nostri nuntiatum esse nobis, dissipavit Deus consilium eorum. Et reversi sumus omnes ad muros, unusquisque ad opus suum.
16Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē talu mei he kuonga ko ia ʻo fai ai pe, naʻe fai ʻe hono vaeuaʻanga ʻo ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae ngāue, pea puke ʻe he vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻae ngaahi tao, mo e ngaahi pā, mo e kaufana, mo e kofutau: pea naʻe ʻi he tuʻa fale kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ʻae kau pule.
16Et factum est a die illa, media pars juvenum eorum faciebat opus, et media parata erat ad bellum: et lanceæ, et scuta, et arcus, et loricæ, et principes post eos in omni domo Juda.
17Ko kinautolu naʻe langa ʻi he ʻā maka, mo kinautolu naʻe haʻamo kavenga, mo kinautolu naʻe fakaheka, naʻa nau fai ʻo ngāueʻaki ʻae nima ʻe taha ʻi he ngāue, pea puke mahafutau ʻaki ʻae nima ʻe taha.
17Ædificantium in muro, et portantium onera, et imponentium: una manu sua faciebat opus, et altera tenebat gladium:
18He ko e kau langa, naʻa nau langa pe ʻo taki taha maʻu hono heletā kuo nonoʻo ʻi hono vakavaka. Pea ko ia naʻe ifi ʻae meʻalea naʻe ofi ia kiate au.
18ædificentium enim unusquisque gladio erat accinctus renes. Et ædificabant, et clangebant buccina juxta me.
19¶ Pea ne u pehē ki he ngaahi houʻeiki, pea ki he kau pule, pea ki hono toe ʻoe kakai, “ʻOku lahi ʻae ngāue pea lau lahi, pea kuo tau mavahevahe ʻi he ʻā maka, pea vāmamaʻo ʻae taha mei he taha.
19Et dixi ad optimates, et ad magistratus, et ad reliquam partem vulgi: Opus grande est et latum, et nos separati sumus in muro procul alter ab altero:
20ʻIlonga ʻae potu ko ia te mou ongoʻi ai ʻae ifi ʻoe meʻalea, mou kātoa ki ai leva kiate kimautolu: ʻe tau ʻe hotau ʻOtua maʻatautolu.”
20in loco quocumque audieritis clangorem tubæ, illuc concurrite ad nos: Deus noster pugnabit pro nobis.
21Ko ia naʻa mau ngāue pe ʻi he ngāue pea puke tao ʻe honau vaeuaʻanga ʻanautolu mei he maʻa hake ʻoe pongipongi ʻo aʻu ki heʻene hāmai ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu.
21Et nos ipsi faciamus opus, et media pars nostrum teneat lanceas ab ascensu auroræ donec egrediantur astra.
22Pea ne u lea foki ʻi he kuonga ko ia ki he kakai, ʻo pehē , Tuku ke taki taha mohe mo ʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻi Selūsalema, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻiate kitautolu ko e kau leʻo ʻi he pō, pea ngāue ʻi he ʻaho.
22In tempore quoque illo dixi populo: Unusquisque cum puero suo maneat in medio Jerusalem, et sint nobis vices per noctem et diem ad operandum.
23Ko ia naʻe ʻikai vete ʻe au, pe ko hoku kāinga, pe ko ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki, pe ko e kau tangata leʻo ʻaia naʻe muimui ʻiate au, naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha naʻe vete hono kofu, ka koeʻuhi pe ke fō.
23Ego autem et fratres mei, et pueri mei, et custodes, qui erant post me, non deponebamus vestimenta nostra: unusquisque tantum nudabatur ad baptismum.
