Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I saw that the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, as with a voice of thunder, “Come and see!”
1Pea ne u vakai ʻi he vete ʻe he Lami ʻae meʻa fakamaʻu ʻe taha, pea ne u fanongo, ʻo hangē ko e ʻuʻulu ʻoe mana, pea ko e tokotaha ʻi he meʻa moʻui ʻe fā naʻe pehē mai, “Haʻu ʻo mamata.”
2Then a white horse appeared, and he who sat on it had a bow. A crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer.
2Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, ko e hoosi hinehina pea naʻe ʻiate ia naʻe heka ai ʻae kaufana; pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻae pale: pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ʻi he ikuna ki he ikuna.
3When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come!”
3Pea kuo vete ʻe ia hono ua ʻoe meʻa fakamaʻu, pea u fanongo ki hono ua ʻoe meʻa moʻui, ʻoku pehē mai, “Haʻu ʻo mamata.”
4Another came out, a red horse. To him who sat on it was given power to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another. There was given to him a great sword.
4Pea ʻalu atu ʻae hoosi ʻe taha naʻe kulokula: pea naʻe tuku kiate ia naʻe heka ai ke ne toʻo ʻae melino mei māmani, pea ke nau fetāmateʻaki ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe ʻatu kiate ia ʻae heletā lahi.
5When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, “Come and see!” And behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a balance in his hand.
5Pea kuo vete ʻe ia hono tolu ʻoe meʻa fakamaʻu, pea u fanongo ki hono tolu ʻoe meʻa moʻui, naʻe pehē mai, “Haʻu ʻo mamata.” Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, ko e hoosi ʻuliʻuli; pea naʻe ʻi he nima ʻo ia naʻe heka ai ʻae meʻa fakatatau.
6I heard a voice in the middle of the four living creatures saying, “A choenix of wheat for a denarius, and three choenix of barley for a denarius! Don’t damage the oil and the wine!”
6Pea ne u fanongo ki he leʻo, mei he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe meʻa moʻui ʻe fā, naʻe pehē mai, “Ko e puha fua ʻoe uite ki he tenali ʻe taha, mo e puha fua ʻe tolu ʻoe paʻale ki he tenali ʻe taha; pea ʻoua naʻa ke maumauʻi ʻae lolo mo e uaine.”
7When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see!”
7Pea kuo vete ʻe ia hono fā ʻoe meʻa fakamaʻu, peau fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo hono fā ʻoe meʻa moʻui, naʻe pehē mai, “Haʻu ʻo mamata.”
8And behold, a pale horse, and the name of he who sat on it was Death. Hades followed with him. Authority over one fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, with famine, with death, and by the wild animals of the earth was given to him.
8Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, ko e hoosi tea: pea ko e hingoa ʻo ia naʻe heka ai ko e Mate, pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻa Hētesi. Pea naʻe tuku kiate kinaua ʻae mālohi ki hono fā ʻoe vahe ʻo māmani, ke tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā, mo e honge, mo e mate, pea mo e fanga manu fekai ʻoe fonua.
9When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had.
9Pea kuo vete ʻe ia hono nima ʻoe meʻa fakamaʻu, ne u mamata ʻi he lalo ʻesifeilaulau ki he ngaahi laumālie ʻokinautolu naʻe tāmateʻi koeʻuhi ko e folofola ʻae ʻOtua, pea koeʻuhi ko e fakamoʻoni ʻaia naʻa nau fai:
10They cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, Master, the holy and true, until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
10Pea naʻa nau tangi ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki māʻoniʻoni mo moʻoni, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa, mo hoʻo taʻefakamaau mo taʻetotongia homau toto kiate kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he maama?”
11A long white robe was given to each of them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, should complete their course.
11Pea naʻe foaki kiate kinautolu taki taha ʻae kofu hinehina tōtōlofa; pea naʻe pehē kiate kinautolu, ke nau kei tatali ke fuoloa siʻi, kaeʻoua ke kātoa honau kaungā tamaioʻeiki mo honau kāinga, ʻakinautolu ʻe tāmateʻi ʻo hangē pe ko kinautolu.
12I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became as blood.
12Pea ne u mamata ʻi heʻene vete hono ono ʻoe meʻa fakamaʻu, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae mofuike lahi; pea hoko ʻae laʻā ʻo ʻuliʻuli ʻo hangē ha tauangaʻa fulufulu, pea hoko ʻae māhina ʻo hangē ko e toto;
13The stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is shaken by a great wind.
13Pea naʻe mokulu ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi ki he fonua, ʻo hangē ko e lī hifo ʻe he fiki ʻa hono ngaahi kauloa, ʻoka lūluuʻi ia ʻe he matangi lahi.
14The sky was removed like a scroll when it is rolled up. Every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
14Pea naʻe mole ʻae langi ʻo hangē ha tohi ʻoka tākai ia; pea ko e moʻunga mo e motu kotoa pē naʻe hiki mei honau potu.
15The kings of the earth, the princes, the commanding officers, the rich, the strong, and every slave and free person, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains.
15Pea ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea mo e ngaahi houʻeiki, mo e kau koloaʻia, mo e kau ʻeikitau, mo e kau mālohi, mo e kau pōpula kotoa pē, mo e kau tauʻatāina kotoa pē, naʻa nau fufū ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi luo mo e ngaahi ʻanaʻi maka ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga;
16They told the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb,
16Mo nau pehē ki he ngaahi moʻunga mo e ngaahi maka, “Hinga mai kiate kimautolu, ʻo fufū ʻakimautolu mei he fofonga ʻo ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki, pea mei he houhau ʻoe Lami:
17for the great day of his wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
17He kuo hokosia ʻae ʻaho lahi ʻo hono houhau; pea ko hai ʻe faʻa tuʻu ai?”
