1 “He vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ʻaho ʻe vela ʻo hangē ko e ngotoʻumu; pea ʻe tatau mo e veve ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fielahi, ʻio, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai angahala: pea ʻe vela ʻo ʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻoku haʻu,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “pea ʻe ʻikai toe ai hanau aka pe ha vaʻa.
For, behold, a day comes burning as an oven, and it shall consume them; and all the aliens, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that is coming shall set them on fire, says the Lord Almighty, and there shall not be left of them root or branch.
2 Ka ʻe hopo hake ʻae laʻā ʻoe angatonu mo e fakamoʻui ʻi hono kapakau, kiate kimoutolu ʻoku manavahē ki hoku huafa; pea te mou ʻalu atu, pea tupu ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻuhikiʻi pulu ʻi he fale fafanga.
But to you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise, and healing [shall be] in his wings: and you shall go forth, and bound as young calves let loose from bonds.
3 Pea te mou molomoloki ʻae kau angahala; he te nau hangē ko e efuefu ʻi homou lalo ʻaofi vaʻe, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia te u fai ai eni,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
And you shall trample the wicked; for they shall be ashes underneath your feet in the day which I appoint, says the Lord Almighty.
4 “Manatu ʻakimoutolu ki he fono ʻa Mōsese ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate ia ʻi Holepi maʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻae ngaahi fekau mo e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
And, behold, I will send to you Elias the Thesbite, before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes;
5 Vakai te u fekau ʻa ʻIlaisiā ko e palōfita kiate kimoutolu, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke hoko ʻae ʻaho lahi mo fakamanavahē ʻo Sihova:
who shall turn again the heart of the father to the son, and the heart of a man to his neighbour, lest I come and strike the earth grievously.
6 Pea te ne liliu ʻae loto ʻoe mātuʻa ki he fānau, pea ko e loto ʻoe fānau ki heʻenau mātuʻa, telia naʻaku haʻu ke taaʻi ʻaki ʻa māmani ʻae malaʻia.”
Remember the law of my servant Moses, accordingly as I charged him [with it] in Choreb for all Israel, [even] the commandments and ordinances.
