Isaiah 60

1 “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the LORD’s glory has risen on you!

“Tuʻu hake, pea ulo; he kuo hoko mai hoʻo maama, pea kuo hā hake ʻiate koe ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova,

2 For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

He vakai, ʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻe he poʻuli ʻa māmani, mo e poʻuli matolu ʻae kakai: ka e hopo hake ʻa Sihova kiate koe, pea ʻe hā hono nāunau ʻiate koe.

3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.

Pea ʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Senitaile ki hoʻo maama, mo e ngaahi tuʻi ki he maama lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻalu hake.

4 “Lift up your eyes all around, and see: they all gather themselves together. They come to you. Your sons will come from far away, and your daughters will be carried in arms.

“Hiki hake ho mata ʻo sio takatakai, pea mamata: ʻoku nau tānaki fakataha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻoku nau haʻu kiate koe: ʻe haʻu ho ngaahi foha mei he mamaʻo, pea ʻe faʻaki ki ho vakavaka ho ngaahi ʻofefine.

5 Then you shall see and be radiant, and your heart will thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will come to you.

Pea te ke toki mamata, pea tānaki fakataha, pea ʻe manavahē ho loto, pea ʻe fakalahi ia; koeʻuhi ʻe fakatafoki kiate koe ʻae koloa ʻoe tahi, ʻe haʻu kiate koe ʻae koloa ʻoe ngaahi Senitaile.

6 A multitude of camels will cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah. All from Sheba will come. They will bring gold and frankincense, and will proclaim the praises of the LORD.

‌ʻE ʻufiʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae fanga kāmeli lahi, ko e fanga kāmeli ʻo Mitiani mo ʻEfaa; ʻakinautolu kotoa pē mei Sipa te nau haʻu: te nau ʻomi ʻae koula mo e meʻa namu kakala; pea te nau fakahā ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo Sihova.

7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered together to you. The rams of Nebaioth will serve you. They will be accepted as offerings on my altar; and I will beautify my glorious house.

‌ʻE tānaki kiate koe ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ʻo Keta, ʻae fanga sipitangata ʻo Nepeoti te nau tokoni kiate koe: te u fiemālie ʻi he ʻohake ia ki hoku feilaulauʻanga, pea te u fakaongoongolelei ʻae fale ʻo hoku nāunau.

8 “Who are these who fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

“Ko hai ʻakinautolu na ʻoku puna ʻo hangē ha ʻao, pea hangē ko e fanga kulukulu ki honau ngaahi matapā?

9 Surely the islands will wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far away, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.

Ko e moʻoni ʻe tatali kiate koe ʻae ʻotu motu, pea ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻo Tasisi, ke ʻomi ho ngaahi foha mei he mamaʻo, ʻa ʻenau siliva mo ʻenau koula fakataha mo kinautolu, ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi kuo ne fakaongoongoleleiʻi koe.

10 “Foreigners will build up your walls, and their kings will serve you; for in my wrath I struck you, but in my favor I have had mercy on you.

“Pea ʻe toe langa ho ʻa ʻe he ngaahi foha ʻoe muli, pea ʻe tauhi kiate koe honau ngaahi tuʻi: he naʻaku taaʻi koe ʻi hoku houhau, ka ʻi heʻeku ʻofa kuo u ʻaloʻofa kiate koe.

11 Your gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night, that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations, and their kings led captive.

Ko ia ʻe ava maʻuaipē ho ngaahi matapā; ʻe ʻikai tāpuni ia ʻi he ʻaho pe ʻi he pō; koeʻuhi ke ʻomi kiate koe ʻae koloa ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga, pea ke ʻomi mo honau ngaahi tuʻi.

12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

He ko e kakai mo e puleʻanga ʻe ʻikai tauhi kiate koe ʻe ʻauha ia; ʻio, ʻe lala ʻaupito ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia.

13 “The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress tree, the pine, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

“ʻE ʻomi kiate koe ʻae nāunau ʻo Lepanoni, ʻae ʻakau ko e fea, mo e ʻakau ko e paini, fakataha mo e pokesi, ke teuteu ʻaki ʻae potu ʻo hoku fale tapu; pea te u ngaohi ʻae potu ʻo hoku tuʻunga vaʻe ke nāunauʻia.

14 The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you; and all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. They will call you the LORD’s City, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻokinautolu naʻe fakamamahiʻi koe, te nau haʻu ʻo hū kiate koe; pea ko kinautolu naʻe fehiʻa kiate koe te nau punou ʻakinautolu ki ho ʻaofivaʻe; pea te nau ui koe, Ko e kolo ʻa Sihova, Ko e Saione ʻoe tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.

15 “Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no one passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

“Ko e meʻa ʻi he liʻaki koe mo e fehiʻa kiate koe, koeʻuhi ʻikai fou ha tangata ʻiate koe, te u ngaohi koe ko e lelei taʻengata, ko e fiefiaʻanga ʻoe toʻutangata toko lahi.

16 You will also drink the milk of the nations, and will nurse from royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

Pea te ke huhu ʻi he huʻahuhu ʻoe ngaahi Senitaile, pea mimisi ʻi he huhu ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi: pea te ke ʻilo ko au ko Sihova ko ho Fakamoʻui, mo ho Huhuʻi, ko e Toko Taha Māfimafi ʻo Sēkope.

17 For bronze I will bring gold; for iron I will bring silver; for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make peace your governor, and righteousness your ruler.

Te u ʻomi ʻae koula ko e fetongi ʻoe palasa, pea te u ʻomi ʻae siliva ko e fetongi ʻoe ukamea, pea ko e palasa ko e fetongi ʻoe ʻakau, pea ko e ukamea ko e fetongi ʻoe maka: pea te u ngaohi ho kau fakamaau ko e melino, pea mo ho kau pule ko e māʻoniʻoni.

18 Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor desolation or destruction within your borders; but you will call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.

‌ʻE ʻikai toe fanongo ki ha fakamālohi ʻi ho fonua, ʻae maumau pe ʻae fakaʻauha ʻi ho ngataʻanga; he te ke ui ho ngaahi ʻā koe Fakamoʻui, mo ho ngaahi matapā ko e Fakamālō.

19 The sun will be no more your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you, but the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.

‌ʻE ʻikai toe hoko ʻae laʻā ko hoʻo maama ʻi he ʻaho; pe ko e ulo ʻoe māhina ko e maama kiate koe: ka e hoko ʻa Sihova ko e maama taʻengata kiate koe, pea ko ho nāunau ʻa ho ʻOtua.

20 Your sun will not go down any more, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will end.

‌ʻE ʻikai toe tō hifo hoʻo laʻā, pea ʻe ʻikai toe fufū ʻe ia hoʻo māhina: koeʻuhi ʻe hoko ʻa Sihova ko hoʻo maama taʻengata, pea ʻe ngata ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻo mamahi.

21 Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

Pea ʻe māʻoniʻoni foki ʻa hoʻo kakai kotoa pē; te nau maʻu ʻae fonua ʻo taʻengata, ko e vaʻa naʻaku tō, ko e ngāue ʻa hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke u ongoongolelei ai.

22 The little one will become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will do this quickly in its time.”

‌ʻE hoko ʻae tokotaha ʻoku siʻi ko e toko afe, mo e tokotaha ʻoku iiki ko e puleʻanga mālohi: ko au ko Sihova te u fakavave ia ʻi hono kuonga.”
