1 Ko e fakamaau ʻae ʻOtua ki he ngaahi fili ʻo hono kakai. 9 ʻE ʻiloʻi ʻae ʻOtua ʻi heʻene fakamaau. 18 Ko ʻene tāpuaki ki he siasi.
1 “Vakai, koeʻuhi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia,
pea ʻi he kuonga ko ia,
ʻaia te u toe ʻomi ai ʻae pōpula ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema,
2 Te u tānaki foki ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē,
pea te u ʻomi ki lalo ʻakinautolu ki he teleʻa ʻo Sihosafate,
pea te u fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko hoku kakai,
pea mo hoku tofiʻa ko ʻIsileli, ʻaia kuo nau fakamovetevete ki he ngaahi puleʻanga,
pea vaheʻi hoku fonua.
3 Pea kuo nau talotalo ki hoku kakai:
pea kuo nau foaki ha tamasiʻi ke maʻu ʻaki ha fefine feʻauaki,
pea nau fakatau ʻae taʻahine maʻa e uaine, koeʻuhi ke nau inu.
4 “ʻIo, pea ko e hā ʻamoutolu ke mo fai mo au, ʻe Taia mo Saitone,
pea mo e matātahi kotoa pē ʻo Palesitaine?
Te mou totongi kiate au?
Pea kapau te mou totongi mai,
ʻe mātuʻaki vave mo toʻotoʻo ʻeku toe ʻatu hoʻomou totongi ki homou tumuʻaki;
5 Koeʻuhi kuo mou ʻave ʻeku siliva mo ʻeku koula,
pea kuo mou ʻave ki homou ngaahi fale fakaʻeiki ʻa ʻeku ngaahi meʻa matamatalelei mo ʻaonga:
6 Ko e fānau foki ʻa Siuta, pea mo e fānau ʻa Selūsalema kuo mou fakatau ki he kakai Kalisi,
koeʻuhi ke mou fakahē mamaʻo ʻakinautolu mei honau mata fonua.
7 Vakai, te u hiki ʻakinautolu mei he potu ne mou fakatau ʻakinautolu ki ai,
pea te u toe ʻatu hoʻomou totongi ki homou tumuʻaki:
8 Pea te u fakatau homou ngaahi foha mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine ki he nima ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta,
pea te nau fakatau ʻakinautolu ki he kakai Sapea,
ki ha kakai mamaʻo atu:
he kuo pehē ʻe Sihova.”
9 “Fanongonongo eni ki he ngaahi Senitaile,
“Teuteu ʻae tau,
fakaʻā ʻae kau tangata mālohi,
tuku ke unu mai ʻae kau tangata tau kotoa pē;
ke nau ʻalu hake: 10 Tuki ʻaki hoʻomou huo toho ʻae ngaahi heletā,
pea mo hoʻomou ngaahi hele ʻauhani ʻae ngaahi tao:
ke pehē ʻe he vaivai, ‘ʻoku ou mālohi;’
11 Fakataha ʻakimoutolu, pea haʻu ʻakimoutolu ko e kau hiteni,
pea tānaki takatakai ʻakimoutolu:”
ʻE Sihova, ke hifo ʻi hena hoʻo kau mālohi:
12 “Ke ʻā ʻae hiteni, pea ʻalu hake ki he teleʻa ʻo Sihosafate:
he te u nofo ʻi ai ke fakamaauʻi ʻae hiteni ʻoku nofo takatakai.
13 ʻAi ʻae hele tuʻusi,
he kuo motuʻa ʻae taʻu:
haʻu, pea ʻalu hifo;
he kuo pito ʻae tataʻoʻanga,
ʻoku mahuohua ʻae ngaahi puha fakatali; koeʻuhi ʻoku lahi ʻenau angahala.”
14 Ko e fuʻu tokolahi, ko e fuʻu tokolahi ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe fakamaau:
he ʻoku ofi ʻae ʻaho ʻo Sihova ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe fakamaau.
15 ʻE fakapoʻuli ʻae laʻā mo e māhina,
pea ʻe ʻikai ulo ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu.
16 ʻE ʻuʻulu ʻa Sihova mei Saione,
pea ʻe fakaongo hono leʻo mei Selūsalema;
pea ʻe lulululu ʻae langi mo māmani:
ka ko Sihova ko e ʻamanaki leleiʻanga ia ʻo hono kakai,
pea ko e mālohiʻanga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
17 “Pea te mou ʻilo ai ko au ko Sihova,
ko homou ʻOtua ʻoku ʻafio ʻi Saione, ko hoku moʻunga tapu:
pea ʻe toki māʻoniʻoni ʻa Selūsalema,
pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻalu ʻiate ia ha muli.
18 “Pea ʻe pehē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia,
ko e ngaahi moʻunga te nau toʻiʻi ʻae uaine foʻou,
pea ʻe tafe ʻae huhuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tafungofunga,
pea ko e ngaahi vaitafe kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ʻe tafe ai ʻae vai,
pea ko e matavai ʻe pa mai mei he fale ʻo Sihova,
pea fakavai ʻae teleʻa ʻo Sitimi.
19 ʻE lala ʻa ʻIsipite,
pea ʻe hoko ʻa ʻItomi ko e toafa kuo lala,
koeʻuhi ko e fakamālohi ki he fānau ʻa Siuta,
he kuo nau lilingi ʻae toto taʻehalaia ʻi honau fonua.
20 Ka ʻe nofo ʻa Siuta ʻo taʻengata,
pea mo Selūsalema mei he toʻutangata ki he toʻutangata.
21 Koeʻuhi te u fakamaʻa ʻae toto
ʻi ai ʻoku teʻeki ai te u fakamaʻa:
