Ezekiel 36
1 Also thou sonne of man, prophesie vnto the mountaines of Israel, and say, Ye mountaines of Israel, heare the word of the Lord.
“Kikite foki, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata, ki he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ke pehē, ʻE ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova:
2 Thus saith the Lord God, because the enemie hath sayde against you, Aha, euen the hye places of the world are ours in possession,
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; koeʻuhi kuo pehē ʻe he fili kiate koe, ‘ʻEhē, ʻehē, naʻa mo e ngaahi potu māʻolunga talu mei muʻa kuo ʻamautolu ia:’
3 Therefore prophesie, and say, Thus sayth the Lord God, Because that they haue made you desolate, and swallowed you vp on euery side, that ye might be a possession vnto the residue of the heathen, and ye are come vnto the lippes and tongues of men, and vnto the reproch of the people,
Ko ia ke ke kikite, mo ke pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Koeʻuhi kuo nau fakalala koe, mo nau fōngia hifo koe mei he potu kotoa pē, kae maʻu ʻakimoutolu ʻe he toenga hiteni, pea ʻoku lea ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngutu faʻa lau, pea manukiʻi ʻe he kakai;
4 Therefore ye mountaines of Israel, heare the worde of the Lord God, Thus sayth the Lord God to the mountaines and to the hilles, to the riuers, and to the valleys, and to the waste, and desolate places, and to the cities that are forsaken: which are spoyled and had in derision of the residue of the heathen that are round about.
Ko ia, fanongo ʻe ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ki he ngaahi moʻunga, mo e ngaahi vaitafe, pea ki he ngaahi teleʻa, pea mo e ngaahi potu lala, mo e ngaahi kolo kuo siʻaki, ʻaia naʻe hoko ko e meʻa vete mo e manukiʻanga ki he toenga hiteni, ʻoku nofo takatakai mai;
5 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Surely in the fire of mine indignation haue I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which haue taken my lande for their possession, with the ioy of all their heart, and with despitefull mindes to cast it out for a pray.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Ko e moʻoni ko e meʻa ʻi he kakaha ʻo ʻeku fuaʻa kuo u lea ai ki he toenga hiteni, pea mo ʻItomi kotoa, ʻakinautolu kuo nau tuʻutuʻuni moʻonautolu ʻa hoku fonua ʻi he fiefia ʻa honau loto, mo e loto fakafāsifasi, ke liʻaki ia ke vetea.
6 Prophesie therfore vpon the land of Israel, and say vnto the mountaines, and to the hilles, to the riuers, and to the valleys, Thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I haue spoken in mine indignation, and in my wrath, because yee haue suffered the shame of the heathen,
Ko ia, ke ke kikite ai ki he fonua ko ʻIsileli, pea ke pehē ki he ngaahi moʻunga, pea mo e ngaahi tafungofunga, mo e ngaahi vaitafe, pea ki he ngaahi teleʻa, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Vakai, kuo u lea ʻi heʻeku fuaʻa mo ʻeku tuputāmaki, koeʻuhi kuo mou fua ʻae mā ʻae kau hiteni:
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, I haue lifted vp mine hand, surely the heathen that are about you, shall beare their shame.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, kuo u hiki hake hoku nima, ko e moʻoni ʻe fua pe ʻenau mā ʻe he hiteni, ʻoku ofi kiate kimoutolu.
8 But you, O mountaines of Israel, yee shall shoote forth your branches, and bring foorth your fruite to my people of Israel: for they are ready to come.
Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻE ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻe fakatupu ke lōloa homou ngaahi vaʻa, pea ʻe tuku ʻa homou fua ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli: he kuo ofi mai ʻenau haʻu.
9 For behold, I come vnto you, and I wil turne vnto you, and ye shalbe tilled and sowen.
He, vakai, ʻoku ou kau mo kimoutolu, pea te u foki mai kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻe keli mo tūtuuʻi ʻakimoutolu:
10 And I wil multiply the men vpon you, euen all the house of Israel wholly, and the cities shalbe inhabited, and the desolate places shalbe builded.
Pea te u fakatokolahi hoʻomou kakai tangata, ʻae fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻio, ʻa hono kātoa: pea ʻe fakakakai ʻae ngaahi kolo, pea ʻe toe langaʻi hake ʻae ngaahi potu lala.
11 And I wil multiply vpon you man and beast, and they shall encrease, and bring fruite, and I will cause you to dwell after your olde estate, and I will bestowe benefites vpon you more then at the first, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Pea te u fakatokolahi ʻae kau tangata, pea mo e fanga manu ʻiate kimoutolu pea te nau tupu ke lahi mo faʻa fua pea te u fakanofo ʻakimoutolu ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi muʻa, pea ʻe lahi hake ʻae lelei te u fai kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono muʻaki fai: pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.
12 Yea, I wil cause men to walke vpon you, euen my people Israel, and they shall possesse you, and ye shalbe their inheritance, and ye shall no more henceforth depriue them of men.
ʻIo, te u tuku ʻae kakai ke ʻeveʻeva ʻiate koe, ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli; pea te nau maʻu koe, pea te ke hoko ko honau tofiʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke toe fakatokosiʻi ʻakinautolu.
13 Thus sayth the Lord God, because they say vnto you, Thou land deuourest vp men, and hast bene a waster of thy people,
ʻOku pehē ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua; Koeʻuhi ʻoku nau pehē kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ke maumauʻi kakai, pea kuo ke fakatokosiʻi ho puleʻanga;
14 Therefore thou shalt deuoure men no more, neither waste thy people henceforth, sayth the Lord God,
Ko ia ʻe ʻikai te ke toe maumau tangata, pe toe fakatokosiʻi ho puleʻanga, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
15 Neither will I cause men to heare in thee the shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt thou beare the reproche of the people any more, neither shalt cause thy folke to fal any more, saith the Lord God.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te u tuku ke ongoʻi ʻa hoʻo fakamaaʻi ʻe he hiteni, pe te ke toe fua ʻae manukiʻi ʻae kakai, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke toe fakahinga ki lalo ho puleʻanga, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua.”
16 Moreouer the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
17 Sonne of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their owne lande, they defiled it by their owne wayes, and by their deedes: their way was before me as the filthinesse of the menstruous.
“Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻi he kei nofo ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi honau fonua ʻonautolu, naʻa nau fakalieliaʻi ia ʻi heʻenau anga ʻanautolu pe, mo e ngaahi meʻa naʻa nau fai: naʻe tatau kiate au ʻenau anga mo e taʻemaʻa ha fefine kuo vaheʻi.
18 Wherfore I powred my wrath vpon them, for the blood that they had shed in the land, and for their idoles, wherewith they had polluted it.
Ko ia naʻaku lilingi atu ai hoku houhau kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ko e toto naʻa nau lilingi ʻi he funga fonua, pea koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tamapua naʻa nau fakaʻuliʻi ʻaki ia:
19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries for according to their wayes, and according to their deedes, I iudged them.
Pea naʻaku fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ki he hiteni, pea naʻe fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fonua: naʻaku fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau anga, pea tatau mo e ngaahi meʻa naʻa nau fai.
20 And when they entred vnto the heathen, whither they went, they polluted mine holy Name, when they sayd of them, These are the people of the Lord, and are gone out of his land.
Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko atu ki he hiteni, ʻaia naʻa nau ʻalu ki ai, naʻa nau fakalieliaʻi ʻa hoku huafa tapu ʻi heʻenau pehēange kiate kinautolu, ‘Ko e kakai ʻena ʻa Sihova, pea kuo nau mahuʻi mai mei hono fonua.’
21 But I fauoured mine holy Name which the house of Israel had polluted among the heathen, whither they went.
Ka naʻaku mamae au ki hoku huafa tapu ʻaia ne fakalieliaʻi ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni ʻaia naʻa nau ʻalu ki ai.
22 Therfore say vnto the house of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God, I doe not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy Names sake, which yee polluted among the heathen whither ye went.
Ko ia, lea ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; ʻOku ʻikai te u fai eni koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ka koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa tapu ʻoʻoku, ʻaia kuo mou fakalieliaʻi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni, ʻaia naʻa mou ʻalu ki ai.
23 And I wil sanctifie my great Name, which was polluted among the heathen, among whome you haue polluted it, and the heathen shall know that I am the Lord, sayth the Lord God, when I shalbe sanctified in you before their eyes.
Pea te u fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻa hoku huafa lahi, ʻaia naʻe fakalieliaʻi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni, ʻaia kuo mou fakalieliaʻi ʻiate kinautolu; pea ʻe ʻilo ʻe he hiteni, ko Sihova au, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoka fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi au ʻekimoutolu ʻi honau ʻao.
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your owne land.
He te u toʻo ʻakimoutolu mei he hiteni, pea tānaki ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua kotoa pē, mo ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki homou fonua ʻomoutolu.
25 Then wil I powre cleane water vpon you, and ye shalbe cleane: yea, from all your filthines, and from all your idoles wil I clense you.
Pea te u toki luluku ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae vai maʻa, pea te mou maʻa: te u fakamaʻa ʻakimoutolu mei hoʻomou fakalielia kotoa pē, pea mo homou ngaahi tamapua.
26 A newe heart also will I giue you, and a new spirit wil I put within you, and I will take away the stonie heart out of your body, and I will giue you an heart of flesh.
Te u foaki foki ha loto foʻou kiate kimoutolu, pea te u ʻai kiate kimoutolu ha laumālie foʻou; te u toʻo ʻo ʻave ʻae loto maka mei homou kakano, pea te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae loto kakanoʻia.
27 And I will put my spirite within you, and cause you to walke in my statutes, and ye shall keepe my iudgements and do them.
Pea te u tuku ki loto ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa hoku laumālie, pea te u fakalotoʻi ʻakimoutolu ke ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea te mou tauhi ʻaia ʻoku ou tuʻutuʻuni, pea fai ki ai.
28 And ye shall dwell in the land, that I gaue to your fathers, and ye shalbe my people, and I will be your God.
Pea te mou nofo ʻi he fonua naʻaku foaki ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai; pea te mou ʻi ai ko hoku kakai, pea te u ʻi ai au ko homou ʻOtua.
29 I will also deliuer you from all your filthinesse, and I will call for corne, and will increase it, and lay no famine vpon you.
Te u fakamoʻui foki ʻakimoutolu mei hoʻomou taʻemaʻa kotoa pē: pea te u ui ki he koane, pea te u fakatupu ia ke lahi, pea ʻe ʻikai tuku ha honge kiate kimoutolu.
30 For I will multiplie the fruite of the trees, and the increase of the fielde, that ye shall beare no more the reproch of famine among the heathen.
Pea te u fakatupu ke lahi ʻae fua ʻi he ʻakau, mo e fua ʻoe kelekele, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa toe manuki ʻaki hoʻomou hongea ʻe he kakai hiteni.
31 Then shall ye remember your owne wicked wayes, and your deedes that were not good, and shall iudge your selues worthie to haue bene destroyed for your iniquities, and for your abominations.
Pea te mou toki manatu ʻekimoutolu pe ki hoʻomou ngaahi faianga kovi, mo e ngaahi meʻa naʻa mou fai naʻe ʻikai lelei, pea te mou fehiʻa mate kiate kimoutolu, ʻi homou ʻao pe ʻomoutolu, koeʻuhi ko hoʻomou hia, pea mo hoʻomou ngaahi fakalielia.
32 Be it knowen vnto you that I do not this for your sakes, sayth the Lord God: therefore, O ye house of Israel, be ashamed, and confounded for your owne wayes.
Ka mou ʻilo eni, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻOku ʻikai te u fai eni koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu: ʻE fale ʻo ʻIsileli, mou mā, pea mou puputuʻu koeʻuhi ko hoʻomou ngaahi faianga.”
33 Thus sayth the Lord God, What time as I shall haue clensed you from all your iniquities, I will cause you to dwel in the cities, and the desolate places shalbe builded.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻI he ʻaho ko ia te u fakamaʻa ai ʻakimoutolu mei hoʻomou ngaahi angahala, te u pule foki ke mou nofo ki he ngaahi kolo, pea ʻe toe langaʻi hake ʻae ngaahi potu lala.
34 And the desolate land shalbe tilled, whereas it lay waste in the sight of all that passed by.
Pea ʻe toe ngoueʻi ʻae fonua ne lala, neongo naʻe tuku siʻaki pe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻonautolu kotoa pē, naʻe ʻalu ange ai.
35 For they sayd, This waste land was like the garden of Eden, and these waste and desolate and ruinous cities were strong, and were inhabited.
Pea te nau lea ʻo pehē, Ko e fonua ni ʻaia ne liʻaki, kuo hangē eni ko e ngoue ʻo ʻIteni; pea kuo ʻāʻi pea kuo fakakakai ʻae ngaahi kolo naʻe liʻaki mo maumauʻi.
36 Then the residue of the heathen that are left round about you, shall know that I the Lord builde the ruinous places, and plant the desolate places: I the Lord haue spoken it, and wil do it.
Pea ʻe toki ʻilo ai ʻe he toenga hiteni ʻe nofo takatakai ʻiate kimoutolu, ko au ia ko Sihova, ʻoku toe langa ai ʻae ngaahi potu ne maumauʻi, pea toe ngoueʻi ʻaia naʻe liʻaki: ko au ko Sihova kuo lea ki ai, pea ko au te u fai ia.”
37 Thus saith the Lord God, I will yet for this be sought of ye house of Israel, to performe it vnto them: I wil encrease them with men like a flocke.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Ka naʻa mo eni ʻe kumi au ʻe he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, ke u fai ia maʻanautolu; pea te u fakatokolahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e tupu ha fanga sipi.
38 As the holy flocke, as the flocke of Ierusalem in their solemne feastes, so shall the desolate cities be filled with flockes of men, and they shall know, that I am the Lord.
ʻO hangē ko e fanga sipi māʻoniʻoni, ʻae fanga sipi ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he ngaahi kātoanga māʻoniʻoni ʻi ai; ʻe pehē ʻae fakapito ʻaki ʻae kakai ʻae ngaahi kolo ne liʻaki: pea te nau ʻilo ko Sihova au.”
