Jeremiah 25
1 The word which came upon Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, —the same, was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon;
Ko e lea naʻe haʻu kia Selemaia ʻoku kau ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e ʻuluaki taʻu ia ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone;
2 which word Jeremiah the prophet spake concerning all the people of Judah, and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem saying: —
ʻAia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, ʻo ne pehē,
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah even until this day, the which is the twenty-third year, hath the word of Yahweh come unto me; and I have spoken unto you, betimes, speaking, yet have ye not hearkened.
“Talu mei hono hongofulu ma tolu taʻu ʻo Siosaia, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia ko hono uofulu ma tolu taʻu eni, kuo haʻu kiate au ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, pea kuo u lea ʻaki ia kiate kimoutolu, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻo lea; ka naʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo.
4 And Yahweh sent unto you all, his servants the prophets, betimes sending, though ye hearkened not, neither inclined ye your ear to hear:
Pea kuo fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻo fekau ʻakinautolu: ka kuo ʻikai te mou fanongo, pe fakatokanga homou telinga ke ongoʻi.
5 saying, —Return I pray you every one from his wicked way and from the wickedness of your doings, So shall ye remain on the soil which Yahweh hath given to you and to your fathers, —even from age to age;
Naʻa nau pehē, Mou taki taha tafoki mei hono hala kovi, pea mei he kovi ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga, pea nofo ʻi he fonua kuo foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu pea mo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata:
6 But do not go away after other gods to serve them and to bow down to them, —So shall ye not provoke me to anger with the work of your hands, and I will not bring calamity upon you;
Pea ʻoua ʻe muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe ʻo tauhi ʻakinautolu, pe lotu kiate kinautolu, pea ʻoua naʻa mou fakahouhauʻi au ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻa homou nima; pea ʻe ʻikai te u fai ha kovi kiate kimoutolu.
7 Howbeit ye hearkened not unto me, Declareth Yahweh, —that ye might provoke me to anger with the work of your hands unto your own hurt.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou tokanga kiate au, koeʻuhi ʻoku mou fakahouhau kiate au ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻa homou nima ke mou kovi ai.”
8 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, —Because ye have not heard my words,
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te mou fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea,
9 Behold me! sending and fetching all the families of the North, Declareth Yahweh and Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon my servant, And I will bring them in against this land and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations, round about, —And I will devote them to destruction, and make them an astonishment and a hissing, and age-abiding desolations.
‘Vakai, Te u fekau ke fetuku ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻoe tokelau, mo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ni, pea ki hono kakai, pea ki he ngaahi kakai ʻoku nofo takatakai ai, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu, pea te u ngaohi ʻakinautolu ko e meʻa fakaʻulia, mo e manukiʻanga, pea mo e fakaʻauha ʻo taʻengata.
10 And I will banish from among them—The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, The voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, —The sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp:
Pea te u toʻo meiate kinautolu ʻae leʻo ʻoe fiefia, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe nekeneka, ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangata taʻane, pea mo e leʻo ʻoe taʻahine, pea mo e ʻuʻulu ʻoe maka momosi, pea mo e ulo ʻoe tūhulu.
11 So shall all this land become a desolation, an astonishment, And these nations shall serve the king of Babylon, seventy years.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻae fonua ni kotoa pē ko e fakaʻauha, pea ko e fakailifia; pea ʻe ngāue ʻae kakai ni ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitungofulu.
12 And it shall some to pass—When the seventy years are fulfilled, I will visit upon the king of Babylon and upon that nation, Declareth Yahweh their iniquity, and upon the land of the Chaldeans, —and I will turn it into age-abiding desolations.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka kakato ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu, te u tautea ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo hono kakai: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau kovi, pea mo e fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia, pea te u ngaohi ia ko e fakaʻauha ʻo taʻengata.
13 So will I bring upon that land, All my words which I have spoken against it, —Even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.
Pea te u ʻomi ki he fonua ko ia ʻeku ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u lea ki ai, ʻio, ko e meʻa kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni, ʻaia kuo kikite ʻaki ʻe Selemaia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
14 For many nations and great kings have used, even them, as slaves, So will I recompense to them—According to their deed and According to the work of their own hands.
Koeʻuhi ʻe pule kiate kinautolu foki ʻae ngaahi kakai, mo e ngaahi tuʻi lahi pea te u ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngaahi faianga, pea hangē ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻa honau nima.
15 For, thus, said Yahweh, God of Israel unto me, Take this cup of indignation wine out of my hand, —and cause all the nations unto whom I am sending thee, to drink it:
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli kiate au: “Toʻo mei hoku nima ʻae ipu uaine ʻoe houhau ni, pea ʻatu ia ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻaia te u fekau koe ki ai, ke nau inu ia.
16 Yea they shall drink and reel to and fro and act as madmen, because of the sword which I am sending between them.
Pea te nau inu, pea tasipa, pea faha, koeʻuhi ko e heletā te u fekau kiate kinautolu.”
17 So I took the cup out of the hand of Yahweh, —and caused all the nations unto whom Yahweh had sent me to drink:
Pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae ipu mei he nima ʻo Sihova, peau fakainu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fekau au ki ai ʻe Sihova:
18 [to wit said he] —Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and her kings her princes, —making them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a contempt, as at this day;
Ko Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea mo hono ngaahi tuʻi, pea mo hono houʻeiki ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ko e fakaʻauha, ko e ofoʻanga, ko e manukiʻanga, pea ko e malaʻia; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo hoko he ʻaho ni.
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt and his servants and his princes, and all his people;
Ko Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo hono ngaahi houʻeiki, pea mo hono kakai kotoa pē.
20 And all the Bedawin, and all the kings of the land of Uz, —and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, even Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
Pea mo e kakai kehekehe kotoa pē, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko Usa, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau Filisitia, mo ʻAsikeloni, mo ʻAsa, mo Ekiloni, pea mo hono toe ʻo ʻAsitoti.
21 Edom and Moab, and the sons of Ammon;
Ko ʻItomi, mo Moape, pea mo e fonua ʻo ʻAmoni.
22 And all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, —and the kings of the Coastland, that is beyond the sea;
Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Taia, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Saitone, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe ngaahi potu ʻi he matātahi,
23 Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all the clipt-beards;
Ko Titani, mo Tima, mo Pusi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi muileleu mamaʻo,
24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the Bedawin, who dwell in the desert;
Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻAlepea, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kakai kehekehe ʻoku nofo ʻi he toafa,
25 And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo Simili, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻIlami, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe kau Mitea,
26 And all the kings of the North, the near and the far every man with his brother, and all the kingdoms of the earth which are on the face of the ground; And the king of Sheshach, shall drink, after them.
Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻoe tokelau, ʻae ofi mo e mamaʻo ʻo lau fakataha, pea mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻoe kelekele: pea ʻe inu fakamuimui ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tuʻi ʻo Sisaki.
27 Therefore shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, —Drink ye and be drunken, and vomit, and fall and rise not, —because of the sword which I am sending between you.
Ko ia ke ke lea kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; Mou inu, ke mou konā, mo lua, mo hinga, pea ʻoua naʻa toetuʻu hake, koeʻuhi ko e heletā ʻaia te u fekau kiate kimoutolu.
28 And it shall be when they shall refuse to take the cup at thy hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Ye shall certainly drink;
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau fie toʻo ʻae ipu ʻi ho nima ke nau inu, ke ke toki pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Ko e moʻoni te mou inu.
29 For lo! with the city on which my Name hath been called, am I making a beginning of sending calamity, And shall, ye, be held, guiltless? Ye shall not be held guiltless: For a sword, am I proclaiming against all the inhabitants of the earth, Declareth Yahweh of hosts.
He ko eni, Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻomi ni ʻae kovi ki he kolo ʻaia ʻoku ui ʻaki ʻa hoku huafa, pea te mou hao ʻaupito ʻo taʻetautea? ʻE ʻikai tuku taʻetautea ʻakimoutolu: he te u ui ki he heletā ke hoko ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
30 Thou, therefore, shalt prophesy against them all these words, —and shalt say unto them—Yahweh, from on high, will roar Yea from his holy habitation, will utter his voice, He will, roar mightily over his home, With a shout as of them who tread the winepress, will he answer unto all the inhabitants of the earth.
“Ko ia ke ke kikite ʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē, pea tala kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻE mana ʻa Sihova mei ʻolunga, pea ʻe ongo atu hono leʻo mei hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni; te ne ngungulu lahi ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga; te ne kalanga ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻo hangē ko kinautolu ʻoku malamalaki ki he fua ʻoe vaine.
31 There hath come in a tumult as far as the end of the earth, For a controversy, hath Yahweh with the nations, Himself, hath entered into judgment with all flesh, —As for the lawless, he hath delivered them to the sword Declareth Yahweh.
ʻE ai ʻae longoaʻa mai ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani; he ʻoku fekovikoviʻi ʻa Sihova mo e ngaahi kakai, te ne alea mo e kakano kotoa pē: pea te ne tukuange ʻae angahala ki he heletā, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.’”
32 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Lo calamity! going forth from nation to nation, —And a great tempest, shall bestirred up, out of the remote parts of the earth.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Vakai, ʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kovi mei he kakai, ki he kakai, pea ʻe fakatupu mei he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani ʻae ʻahiohio lahi.
33 Then shall the slain of Yahweh in that day, be from one end of the earth, even unto the other end of the earth, —They shall not be lamented, nor gathered together nor buried, As dung, on the face of the ground, shall they serve.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova mei hono ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo māmani ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo māmani: pea ʻe ʻikai ha mamahi koeʻuhi ko kinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai tānaki, pe tanu: ka ʻe hoko ʻakinautolu ko e kinohaʻa ʻi he funga fonua.
34 Howl ye shepherds and make outcry, And roll in the dust ye illustrious of the flock, Because your days for being slaughtered, are fulfilled, —Therefore will I break you in pieces, and ye shall fall like a precious vessel!
Tangi, mo tangilāulau ʻakimoutolu ko e kau tauhi, pea fetafokifokiʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he efuefu, ko kimoutolu ko e tauhi lahi; he kuo hokosia ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou fakamovetevete, pea mo hoʻomou tāmateʻi; pea ʻe maumauʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻo hangē ko e ipu maʻungataʻa.
35 Then shall place of refuge vanish from the shepherds, And escape from the illustrious of the flock.
Pea ʻe ʻikai ha hala ke hola ai ʻae kau tauhi, pe ha haoʻanga ki he tauhi lahi.
36 The voice of the outcry of the shepherds! Yea the howling of the illustrious of the flock!—Because Yahweh is laying waste the grounds where they fed.
ʻE ongo mai ʻae leʻo ʻoe tangi ʻae kau tauhi, pea mo e tangilāulau ʻae tauhi lahi: he kuo maumauʻi ʻe Sihova ʻenau ngoue.
37 Then shall be silenced the prosperous pastures, —Because of the fierceness of the anger of Yahweh.
Pea kuo tuʻusi ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga fiemālie koeʻuhi ko e houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.
38 He hath left as a lion his covert, For their land hath become a horror, Because of the fierceness of oppression and Because of the fierceness of his anger.
Kuo ne liʻaki hono ʻana, ʻo hangē ko e laione: he kuo lala ʻa honau fonua, koeʻuhi ko e ʻita lahi ʻoe fakamālohi, pea koeʻuhi ko e kakaha ʻo hono houhau.
