ʻIsikieli 16

1 Naʻe toe hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 “Foha ʻoe tangata, fakaʻilo ki Selūsalema ʻa ʻene ngaahi fakalielia,

Son of man, testify to Jerusalem [of] her iniquities;

3 Pea ke lea, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki Selūsalema; naʻe fanauʻi pea fāʻeleʻi koe ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani; ko hoʻo tamai ko e [tangata ]ʻAmoli, pea ko hoʻo faʻē ko e [fefine ]Heti.

and thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord to Jerusalem; Thy root and thy birth are of the land of Chanaan: thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Chettite.

4 Pea koeʻuhi ko ho fāʻeleʻi, ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fanauʻi ai koe naʻe ʻikai tā ho uho, pea naʻe ʻikai kaukau koe ʻi ha vai, ke fakamolū koe; naʻe ʻikai ngaohi ʻaki koe ha māsima, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fakakofu koe.

And [as for] thy birth in the day wherein thou wast born, thou didst not bind thy breasts, and thou wast not washed in water, neither wast thou salted with salt, neither wast thou swathed in swaddling-bands.

5 Naʻe ʻikai ha mata ke ʻofa kiate koe ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate koe pe manavaʻofa kiate koe; ka naʻe lī atu koe ki he vao ʻataʻatā, ke fakalielia ho sino ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fāʻeleʻi ai koe.

Nor did mine eye pity thee, to do for thee one of all these things, to feel at all for thee; but thou wast cast out on the face of the field, because of the deformity of thy person, in the day wherein thou wast born.

6 “Pea ʻi heʻeku ʻalu atu kiate koe pea u mamata naʻa ke fakalielia ʻi ho toto pe ʻoʻou, ne u pehē kiate koe, lolotonga hoʻo kei pani toto, Ke ke moʻui; ʻio, naʻa ke kei ʻi ho toto ʻoʻou, naʻaku pehē ai kiate koe, Ke ke moʻui.

And I passed by to thee, and saw thee polluted in thy blood; and I said to thee, [Let there be] life out of thy blood:

7 Kuo u ngaohi koe ke ke tupu ʻo hangē ko e fisi ʻoe ngoue, pea kuo ke tupu pea hoko ko e lahi, pea kuo ke maʻu ʻae teunga ki he teunga; kuo hunuki ho huhu, pea kuo tupu ho fulufulu, ka naʻa ke telefua mo masiva.

increase; I have made thee as the springing grass of the field. So thou didst increase and grow, and didst enter into great cities: thy breasts were set, and thy hair grew, whereas thou wast naked and bare.

8 Pea ko eni, ʻi heʻeku ʻalu atu kiate koe, vakai, ko e lolotonga ia ʻa hoʻo ʻofa; pea naʻaku folahi atu kiate koe ʻa hoku kofu mo fakakofuʻaki ʻa hoʻo telefua; ʻio, naʻaku fuakava kiate koe, pea naʻa ta fefuakavaʻaki mo koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “pea naʻaku maʻu koe maʻaku.”

And I passed by thee and saw thee, and, behold, [it was] thy time and a time of resting; and I spread my wings over thee, and covered thy shame, and swear to thee: and I entered into covenant with thee, saith the Lord, and thou becamest mine.

9 “Pea u toki kaukau koe ʻaki ʻae vai, ne u fufulu koe ke maʻa ʻaupito mei he toto, pea naʻaku tākai koe ʻaki ʻae lolo.

And I washed thee in water, and washed thy blood from thee, and anointed thee with oil.

10 Naʻaku fakakofuʻaki koe ʻae tuitui fakasanisani, pea u fakatopuvaʻe ʻaki koe ʻae kiliʻi pasa; pea u fakavala ʻaki koe ʻae tupenu lelei, pea naʻaku ʻufiʻufi koe ʻaki ʻae silika.

And I clothed thee with embroidered [garments], and clothed thee beneath with purple, and girded thee with fine linen, and clothed thee with silk,

11 Naʻaku ʻai foki kiate koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa teunga, pea naʻaku ʻai ʻae vesa ki ho nima, mo e kahoa ki ho kia.

and decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thine hands, and a necklace on thy neck.

12 Pea naʻaku ʻai ʻae maka mahuʻinga ʻi ho foʻi laʻē, mo e mama ʻi ho telinga, mo e pale lelei ki ho ʻulu.

And I put a pendant on thy nostril, and rings in thine ears, and a crown of glory on thine head.

13 Naʻe pehē ʻae teuteu ʻaki koe ʻae koula mo e siliva; naʻe kofuʻaki koe ʻae tupenu lelei mo e silika, mo e tuitui fakasanisani; naʻa ke kai ʻi he mahoaʻa lelei mo e honi, mo e lolo: pea naʻa ke hoihoifua ʻaupito pea naʻa ke tupu lelei ʻo hoko ko e puleʻanga.

So thou wast adorned with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and variegated work: thou didst eat fine flour, and oil, and honey, and didst become extremely beautiful.

14 Naʻe mafola atu ho ongoongolelei ki he hiteni ko e meʻa ʻi ho hoihoifua, he naʻe haohaoa ia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku lelei ʻaia naʻaku ʻai ʻeau kiate koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.

And thy name went forth among the nations for thy beauty: because it was perfected with elegance, [and] in the comeliness which I put upon thee, saith the Lord.

15 “Ka naʻa ke falala koe ki ho hoihoifua, pea naʻa ke fai feʻauaki, ko e meʻa ʻi ho ongoongo, naʻa ke fai hoʻo feʻauaki kiate ia kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ange; naʻe ʻaʻana pe ia.

Thou didst trust in thy beauty, and didst go a-whoring because of thy renown, and didst pour out thy fornication on every passer by.

16 Pea naʻa ke toʻo ho ngaahi kofu pea ne ke teuteu ʻaki ia ho ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻi he meʻa pule kehekehe, pea naʻa ke fai feʻauaki ʻi ai: pea ʻe ʻikai toe hoko ha meʻa pehē; ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito pehē.

And thou didst take of thy garments, and madest to thyself idols of needlework, and didst go a-whoring after them; therefore thou shalt never come in, nor shall [the like] take place.

17 Pea kuo ke toʻo ʻae ngaahi teunga lelei ʻo ʻeku koula mo ʻeku siliva, ʻaia naʻaku foaki kiate koe, mo ke ngaohi kiate koe ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ʻoe tangata, pea kuo ke fai angahala mo ia.

And thou tookest thy fair ornaments of my gold and of my silver, of what I gave thee, and thou madest to thyself male images, and thou didst commit whoredom with them.

18 Kuo ke fakakofuʻaki ʻakinautolu ho ngaahi kofu fakasanisani: pea kuo ke tuku ʻi honau ʻao ʻa ʻeku lolo mo e meʻa namu kakala ʻaʻaku.

And thou didst take thy variegated apparel and didst clothe them, and thou didst set before them mine oil and mine incense.

19 Ko ʻeku meʻakai foki, ʻaia naʻaku foaki kiate koe, ʻae mahoaʻa lelei, mo e lolo mo e honi, naʻaku fafanga ʻaki koe, naʻa mo ia kuo ke tuku ʻi honau ʻao, ko e meʻa namu kakala.” ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, naʻe pehē ʻa hono fai.

And [thou tookest] my bread which I gave thee, ([yea] I fed thee with fine flour and oil and honey) and didst set them before them for a sweet-smelling savour: yea, it was so, saith the Lord.

20 “Kuo ke toʻo foki hoʻo ngaahi tama mo hoʻo ngaahi taʻahine ʻaia kuo ke fanauʻi kiate au, pea kuo ke feilaulau ʻaki ʻakinautolu ke nau ʻauha. Ko e meʻa siʻi koā eni, ʻa hoʻo feʻauaki?

And thou tookest thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou borest, and didst sacrifice [these] to them to be destroyed. Thou didst go a-whoring as [if that were] little,

21 Kaeʻumaʻā ʻa hoʻo tāmateʻi ʻeku fānau, mo ke tuku ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu atu [ʻi he afi ]maʻanautolu?

and didst slay thy children, and gavest them up in offering them to them for an expiation.

22 Pea ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia kotoa pē mo hoʻo feʻauaki kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai te ke manatu ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻo kei siʻi, ʻaia naʻa ke telefua mo masiva ai, pea ke fakalielia ʻi ho toto pe ʻoʻou.”

This is beyond all thy fornication, and thou didst not remember thine infancy, when thou wast naked and bare, [and] didst live [though] defiled in thy blood.

23 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, “ʻi heʻene hili kotoa pē ʻa hoʻo fai kovi, (Malaʻia, malaʻia kiate koe! ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; )

And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, saith the Lord,

24 Kuo ke langa moʻou ʻae fale feʻauaki mo ke ngaohi kiate koe ʻae potu māʻolunga ʻi he hala kotoa pē.

that thou didst build thyself a house of fornication, and didst make thyself a public place in every street;

25 Kuo ke langa ho fale feʻauaki ʻi he tefito hala kotoa pē pea kuo ke ngaohi ho hoihoifua ko e fehiʻanekina, mo ke fakaava ho vaʻe kiate ia kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ange mo ke fakalahi pe ki hoʻo feʻauaki.

and on the head of every way thou didst set up thy fornications, and didst defile thy beauty, and didst open thy feet to every passer by, and didst multiply thy fornication.

26 Kuo ke fai angahala foki mo ho kaunga nofoʻanga, ko e kakai ʻIsipite ʻoku sino lalahi: pea kuo ke fakalahi ki hoʻo feʻauaki, ko e fakatupu ʻita kiate au.

And thou didst go a-whoring after the children of Egypt thy neighbors, great of flesh; and didst go a-whoring, often to provoke me to anger.

27 Ko ia, vakai, kuo u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, pea u fakasiʻisiʻi hoʻo meʻakai, mo tukuange koe ki he faʻiteliha ʻanautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe, ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kau Filisitia, he ʻoku nau mā ʻi hoʻo faianga fakalielia.

And if I stretch out my hand against thee, then will I abolish thy statutes, and deliver [thee] up to the wills of them that hate thee, [even to] the daughters of the Philistines that turned thee aside from the way wherein thou sinned.

28 Kuo ke fai angahala foki mo e kakai ʻAsilia, he naʻe ʻikai te ke faʻa fiu; ʻio, kuo ke fai angahala mo kinautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te ke topono ai.

And thou didst go a-whoring to the daughters of Assur, and not even thus wast thou satisfied; yea, thou didst go a-whoring, and wast not satisfied.

29 Kuo ke fakalahi foki ʻa hoʻo feʻauaki ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani ʻo aʻu ki Kalitia; ka naʻa mo ia naʻe ʻikai te ke fiu ai.”

And thou didst multiply thy covenants with the land of the Chaldeans; and not even with these wast thou satisfied.

30 “ʻOiauē! ʻAe vaivai ho loto,” ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “He kuo ke fai eni kotoa pē, ko e ngāue ʻae fefine faʻa feʻauaki mo fakamofutofuta;

Why should I make a covenant with thy daughter, saith the Lord, while thou doest all these things, the works of a harlot? and thou hast gone a-whoring in a threefold degree with thy daughters.

31 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo langa ha fale feʻauaki ʻi he tefito hala kotoa pē, pea ngaohi ho potu māʻolunga ʻi he hala kotoa pē, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke tatau mo e fefine feʻauaki ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fehiʻa ki he totongi;

Thou hast built a house of harlotry in every top of a way, and hast set up thine high place in every street; and thou didst become as a harlot gathering hires.

32 Kae hangē ko e uaifi ʻoku tono tangata ʻoku maʻu ʻae kakai kehe ko e fetongi ʻa hono husepāniti!

An adulteress resembles thee, taking rewards of her husband.

33 ‌ʻOku foaki totongi ki he kau fefine feʻauaki kotoa pē; ka ko koe kuo ke foaki meʻaʻofa ki ho kau mamana kotoa pē, pea ke totongi kiate kinautolu, ke nau haʻu kiate koe mei he potu kotoa pē ki hoʻo feʻauaki.

She has even given rewards to all that went a-whoring after her, and thou hast given rewards to all thy lovers, yea, thou didst load them with rewards, that they should come to thee from every side for thy fornication.

34 Pea ʻoku ke fai kehe koe ʻi hoʻo fai angahala mo e fefine kehe, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai muimui ha niʻihi kiate koe ke fai ʻae angahala; pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fai ʻe koe ʻae totongi, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha totongi ʻe fai kiate koe, ko ia ʻoku ke kehe ai.”

And there has happened in thee perverseness in thy fornication beyond [other] women, and they have committed fornication with thee, in that thou givest hires over and above, and hires were not given to thee; and [thus] perverseness happened in thee.

35 Ko ia, ʻe fefine feʻauaki, fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova.

Therefore, harlot, hear the word of the Lord:

36 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Koeʻuhi naʻe lilingi atu hoʻo fakalielia, pea fakahā hoʻo telefua, ʻi hoʻo fai angahala mo ho kau mamana, mo e ngaahi tamapua ʻo hoʻo fakalielia, pea mo e toto ʻo hoʻo fānau ʻaia naʻa ke tuku kiate kinautolu:

Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast poured forth thy money, therefore thy shame shall be discovered in thy harlotry with thy lovers, and [with] regard to all the imaginations of thine iniquities, and for the blood of thy children which thou hast given to them.

37 Vakai, ko ia foki te u tānaki ai ho kau mamana kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu kuo ke fakafiefia ai koe, mo kinautolu kotoa pē kuo ke ʻofa ki ai, fakataha mo kinautolu kotoa pē kuo ke fehiʻa ki ai; ʻio, te u tānaki fakataha ʻakinautolu kiate koe, pea te u fakahā hoʻo telefua kiate kinautolu koeʻuhi ke nau mamata ki hoʻo telefua kotoa pē.

Therefore, behold, I [will] gather all thy lovers with whom thou hast consorted, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou didst hate; and I will gather them against thee round about, and will expose thy wickedness to them, and they shall see all thy shame.

38 Pea te u fakamaauʻi koe, ʻo tatau mo e fakamaau ki he kau fefine ʻoku maumau ʻae fakamaʻu mali mo lilingi ʻae toto: pea te u fakainu ʻaki koe ʻae toto ʻi heʻeku houhau mo ʻeku fuaʻa.

And I will be avenged on thee with the vengeance of an adulteress, and I will bring upon thee blood of fury and jealousy.

39 Pea te u tukuange koe foki ki honau nima, pea te nau holoki hifo ho fale ongoongo, ʻo maumauʻi ki lalo ho ngaahi potu māʻolunga: pea te nau haehae foki meiate koe ho ngaahi kofu, mo nau ʻave hoʻo ngaahi meʻa teunga, pea te nau fakatelefuaʻi mo fakamasivaʻi koe.

And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall break down thy house of harlotry, and destroy thine high place; and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take thy proud ornaments, and leave thee naked and bare.

40 Pea te nau ʻomi mo e niʻihi kiate koe, pea te nau lisingi koe ʻaki ʻae maka, pea tui ʻaki koe ʻenau heletā ke ʻasi.

And they shall bring multitudes upon thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and pierce thee with their swords.

41 Pea te nau tuungia ho ngaahi fale, mo nau fai ʻae tautea kiate koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau fefine tokolahi: te u ngaohi koe ke ke tuku hoʻo feʻauaki, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke toe fai ha totongi.

And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and shall execute vengeance on thee in the sight of many women: and I will turn thee back from harlotry, and I will no more give [thee] rewards.

42 Ko ia ia ʻe lolou ai ʻa hoku houhau kiate koe, pea ʻe hiki hoku fuaʻa meiate koe, pea te u fiemālie, pea ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻita.

So will I slacken my fury against thee, and my jealousy shall be removed from thee, and I will rest, and be no more careful [for thee].

43 Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ke manatuʻi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻo kei siʻi, ka kuo ke fakamataliliʻi au ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē, ko ia, vakai, te u fakahoko ki ho tumuʻaki hono nunuʻa ʻo hoʻo faianga, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua: pea ʻe ʻikai te ke fakalahi ʻaki hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia kotoa pē ʻa hoʻo fai ʻae fakalielia ko eni.”

Because thou didst not remember thine infancy, and thou didst grieve me in all these things; therefore, behold, I have recompensed thy ways upon thine head, saith the Lord: for thus hast thou wrought ungodliness above all thine [other] iniquities.

44 “Vakai, ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku faʻa lea ʻaki ʻae fakatātā te nau lea fakatātā kiate koe ʻo pehē, ‘ʻO hangē ko e faʻē, ʻoku pehē pe ʻene taʻahine.’

These are all the things they have spoken against thee in a proverb, saying,

45 Ko e taʻahine koe ʻa hoʻo faʻē, ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa ki hono husepāniti mo ʻene fānau; pea ko e tehina koe ʻo ho ngaahi tokoua, ʻakinautolu naʻe fehiʻa ki honau husepāniti mo ʻenau fānau: ko hoʻo faʻē ko e [fefine ]Heti, pea ko hoʻo tamai ko e [tangata ]ʻAmoli ia.

As is the mother, so is thy mother's daughter: thou art she that has rejected her husband and her children; and the sisters of thy sisters have rejected their husbands and their children: your mother was a Chettite, and [your] father an Amorite.

46 Pea ko ho taʻokete ko Samēlia ia, ʻaia mo ʻene fānau fefine, ʻoku nofo ʻi ho nima toʻohema: pea ko ho tehina, ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu, ko Sotoma ia mo ʻene fānau fefine.

Your elder sister who dwells on thy left hand is Samaria, she and her daughters: and thy younger sister, that dwells on the right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.

47 Ka naʻe ʻikai te ke ʻeveʻeva koe ʻi honau hala, pe fai ʻo hangē ko ʻenau ngaahi fakalielia: kae hangē naʻe siʻi ʻaupito haʻanautolu, ka kuo ke fai fakalielia lahi hake ʻaupito koe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi hoʻo anga kotoa pē.”

Yet notwithstanding thou hast not walked in their ways, neither hast thou done according to their iniquities within a little, but thou hast exceeded them in all thy ways.

48 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “ʻO hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, naʻe ʻikai fai ʻe ho tehina ko Sotoma, ʻa ia, pe ko ʻene fānau fefine, ʻo tatau mo ia kuo ke fai ʻe koe, ʻa koe, mo hoʻo kau taʻahine.

[As] I live, saith the Lord, this Sodom and her daughters have not done as thou and thy daughters have done.

49 Vakai, ko e fai hala eni ʻa ho tehina ko Sotoma, ko e fielahi, mo e fangapesi, mo e fakapikopiko lahi, naʻe ʻiate ia mo ʻene fānau fefine, pea naʻe ʻikai tokoni ʻe ia ki he nima ʻoe masiva mo e paea.

Moreover this was the sin of thy sister Sodom, pride: she and her daughters lived in pleasure, in fullness of bread [and] in abundance: this belonged to her and her daughters, and they helped not the hand of the poor and needy.

50 Pea naʻa nau fielahi, mo nau fai fakalielia ʻi hoku ʻao; ko ia naʻaku faʻiteliha pe au ʻo ʻave ai ʻakinautolu.

And they boasted, and wrought iniquities before me: so I cut them off as I saw [fit].

51 Pea naʻa mo Samēlia, ʻoku ʻikai te ne fai hala ʻe ia ke tatau mo e vaeua haʻau; he kuo ke fakatupu hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia ke lahi hake ʻiate kinautolu, pea kuo tonuhia ange ʻiate koe, ʻa ho ngaahi tokoua, ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia, ʻaia kuo ke fai ʻe koe.

Also Samaria has not sinned according to half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine iniquities beyond them, and thou hast justified thy sisters in all thine iniquities which thou hast committed.

52 ‌ʻA koe foki, kuo ke fakaanga ki ho ngaahi tokoua, fua pe ʻe koe, ʻa hoʻo mā ʻaʻau, ʻi hoʻo ngaahi angahala kuo ke fai fakalielia lahi ai ʻiate kinautolu: ʻoku nau māʻoniʻoni hake ʻiate koe: ʻio, ke ke puputuʻu koe, pea ke fua hoʻo mā, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fakatonuhiaʻi ho ngaahi tokoua.

Thou therefore bear thy punishment, for that thou hast corrupted thy sisters by thy sins which thou hast committed beyond them; and thou hast made them [appear] more righteous than thyself: thou therefore be ashamed, and bear thy dishonour, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.

53 ‌ʻO kau ka toe ʻomi mei he pōpula, ʻae kau pōpula ʻo Sotoma mo ʻene fānau fefine, mo e pōpula ʻo Samēlia mo ʻene fānau fefine ʻaʻana, te u toki ʻomi ʻae pōpula ʻi hoʻo kau pōpula ki honau lotolotonga:

And I will turn their captivity, [even] the captivity of Sodom and her daughters; and I will turn the captivity of Samaria and her daughters; and I will turn thy captivity in the midst of them:

54 Koeʻuhi ke ke fua ʻe koe pe ʻa hoʻo mā, pea ke puputuʻu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē kuo ke fai, koeʻuhi ko hoʻo fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu.

that thou mayest bear thy punishment, and be dishonoured for all that thou hast done in provoking me to anger.

55 ‌ʻOka toe liliu mai ʻa Sotoma mo ʻene fānau fefine ki heʻenau nofo muʻa, pea liliu ʻa Samēlia mo ʻene fānau fefine ki heʻenau muʻaki nofo, ʻe toki liliu ai koe mo hoʻo fānau fefine ki hoʻomou nofo muʻa ʻamoutolu.

And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall be restored as they were at the beginning, and thou and thy daughters shall be restored as ye were at the beginning.

56 He naʻe ʻikai te ke meimei lea ʻaki mei ho ngutu, ʻa ho taʻokete ko Samēlia, ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hoʻo fielahi,

And surely thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the days of thy pride:

57 ‌ʻI he teʻeki ai fakahā hoʻo angakovi, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho naʻe manukiʻi ai koe ʻe he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Silia mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo vāofi mo ia, ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻaia ʻoku manuki fano pe kiate koe.

before thy wickedness was discovered, even now thou art the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all that are round about her, [even] of the daughters of the Philistines that compass thee round about.

58 Kuo ke fua hoʻo holi kovi mo hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.

[As for] thine ungodliness and thine iniquities, thou hast borne them, saith the Lord.

59 He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Te u fai kiate koe ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ke fai, ʻa koe, kuo ke manuki ki heʻeta tuki, mo ke maumauʻi ʻae fuakava.

Thus saith the Lord; I will even do to thee as thou hast done, as thou hast dealt shamefully in these things to transgress my covenant.

60 Ka neongo ia te u manatu ʻeau, ʻa ʻeku fuakava mo koe ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hoʻo kei siʻi, pea te u fokotuʻu kiate koe ha fuakava ʻe ʻikai ngata.

And I will remember my covenant [made] with thee in the days of thine infancy, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.

61 Pea te ke toki manatu ki hoʻo faianga kotoa pē, pea te ke mā, ʻoka ke ka maʻu ho ngaahi tokoua, ʻa ho taʻokete mo ho ngaahi tehina: pea te u foaki ʻakinautolu kiate koe, ke ke ʻofefine aki, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻi hoʻo fuakava ʻaʻau.

Then thou shalt remember thy way, and shalt be utterly dishonoured when thou receivest thine elder sisters with thy younger ones: and I will give them to thee for building up, but not by thy covenant.

62 Pea te u fokotuʻu ʻa ʻeku fuakava mo koe, pea te ke ʻilo ko Sihova au.

And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord:

63 Koeʻuhi ke ke manatu ai, mo ke puputuʻu, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ke toe mafaʻa ho ngutu koeʻuhi ko hoʻo mā, ʻo kau ka toe fiemālie kiate koe ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē kuo ke fai,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua.

that thou mayest remember, and be ashamed, and mayest no more be able to open thy mouth for thy shame, when I am reconciled to thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord.
