< Isaiah 11 >

1 But there shall come forth a shoot from the stock of Jesse, —And, a sprout from his roots, shall bear fruit;
Pea ʻe tupu hake ha tokotoko mei he tefito ʻo Sese, pea ʻe tupu ha Vaʻa mei hono ngaahi aka:
2 And the spirit of Yahweh shall rest upon him, —The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of knowledge and reverence of Yahweh;
Pea ʻe nofo ʻiate ia ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova, ʻae laumālie ʻoe poto mo e faʻa ʻilo, ʻae laumālie ʻoe akonaki mo e mālohi, ʻae laumālie ʻoe ʻilo pea mo e manavahē kia Sihova;
3 So will he find fragrance, in the reverence of Yahweh, And not, by the sight of his eyes, will he judge, Nor by the hearing of his ears, will he decide;
Pea ʻe ʻilo vave ʻe ia ʻae manavahē kia Sihova: pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamaau ʻi he vakai ʻa hono fofonga, pe valoki ʻo hangē ko e fanongo ʻa hono telinga:
4 But he will judge with righteousness! them who are poor, And decide with equity! for the oppressed of the land, —And he will smite the land With the sceptre of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips, will he slay the lawless one;
Ka ʻi he māʻoniʻoni te ne fakamaau ʻae masiva, pea valoki ʻi he taʻefilifilimānako maʻa e angavaivai ʻoe fonua: pea te ne taaʻi ʻa māmani ʻaki ʻae meʻa tā ʻo hono fofonga, pea te ne tāmate ʻae angakovi ʻaki ʻae mānava ʻo hono loungutu.
5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, —And faithfulness the girdle of his reins;
Pea ko e noʻo ʻo hono kongaloto ʻae māʻoniʻoni, pea ko e nonoʻo ʻo hono noʻotanga vala ʻae moʻoni.
6 And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, And, the leopard, with the kid, shall lie down, —And the calf and the young lion and the fatling—together, With, a little child, leading them;
Pea ʻe toki nofo fakataha ʻae ulofi mo e lami, pea ʻe tokoto fakataha ʻae lēpati mo e ʻuhikiʻi kosi; pea ʻe fakataha ʻae ʻuhikiʻi pulu mo e laione mui pea mo e manu fafanga; pea ʻe tataki ʻakinautolu ʻe ha tamasiʻi siʻi.
7 And the cow, with the bear shall find pasture, Together, shall their young ones, lie down, —And, the lion, like the ox, shall eat straw;
Pea ʻe kai fakataha ʻae pulu fefine mo e pea; pea ʻe tokoto fakataha honau ʻuhiki: pea ʻe kai ʻe he laione ʻae kau ʻoe koane ʻo hangē ko e pulu.
8 And the sucking child shall caress over the hole of the asp, Yea over the viper’s den, hath the weaned child stretched out his hand:
Pea ko e tamasiʻi ʻoku kei huhu te ne vaʻinga ʻi he luo ʻoe ngata, pea ko e tamasiʻi kuo fakamavae te ne ʻai hono nima ki he ʻana ʻoe ngata fekai.
9 They shall not hurt—nor destroy, in all my holy mountain, —For filled is the land with the knowledge of Yahweh, As the waters, to the sea, form a covering.
‌ʻE ʻikai te nau fakamamahi pe fakaʻauha ʻi ha potu ʻo hoku moʻunga māʻoniʻoni: koeʻuhi ʻe fonu ʻa māmani ʻi he ʻiloʻi ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻe he ngaahi vai ʻae kilisi tahi.
10 And there shall come to be, in that day, A root of Jesse, which shall be standing as an ensign of peoples, Unto him, shall nations seek, —And, his resting-place, shall be, glorious.
Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻe ʻi ai ʻae aka ʻo Sese, ʻaia ʻe tuʻu ko e fuka ʻae kakai: ʻe kumi ki ai ʻae ngaahi Senitaile: pea ʻe lelei ʻaupito ʻa hono mālōlōʻanga.
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, That My Lord will again a second time set his hand, to possess himself of the remnant of his people, —who shall be left—from Assyria and from Egypt and from Pathros and from Ethiopia and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the Coastlands of the sea;
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe toe ai ʻe Sihova hono nima ko hono liunga ua ke fakamoʻui ʻae toenga ʻo hono kakai, ʻaia ʻe fakatoe, mei ʻAsilia, pea mo ʻIsipite, pea mo Patolose, pea mo Kusi, pea mo ʻIlami, pea mei Saina, pea mei Hamate, pea mei he ngaahi motu ʻoe tahi.
12 And he will lift up a standard to the nations, And will gather the outcasts of Israel, —And the dispersed of Judah, will he collect, From the four corners of the earth.
Pea te ne fokotuʻu ha fuka ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea te ne fakataha ʻae kau liʻaki ʻo ʻIsileli, pea tānaki fakataha ʻae kau vetekina ʻo Siuta mei he vahe ʻe fā ʻo māmani.
13 And the envy of Ephraim shall be removed, And the vexatious doings of Judah, shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah, shall not vex Ephraim;
Pea ʻe mole ʻae meheka meia ʻIfalemi, pea ʻe fakaʻauha mo e ngaahi fili ʻo Siuta: ʻe ʻikai kei fehiʻa ʻa ʻIfalemi kia Siuta, pea ko Siuta ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamamahiʻi ʻa ʻIfalemi.
14 But they shall fly on the wing of the Philistines in the west, Together, shall they make prey of the sons of the east, —On Edom and Moab, putting forth their hand, With the sons of Ammon hearkening unto them.
Ka te na puna ki he lulunga ʻi he uma ʻoe kakai Filisitia; pea te na faʻao mo e potu hahake: te nau ʻene ai honau nima ki ʻItomi mo Moape; pea ʻe talangofua kiate kinautolu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
15 And Yahweh, will devote to destruction, the gulf of the Egyptian sea, And will brandish his hand against the River ["Euphrates"], in the full force of his spirit, —And will smite it in the seven streams And cause a marching through in sandals,
Pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻelelo ʻoe tahi ʻo ʻIsipite; pea te ne lulululu hono nima ki he vaitafe ʻaki ʻene matangi lahi, pea ʻe taaʻi ʻe ia ʻi hono mangaʻivai ʻe fitu, pea ʻe ʻalu taʻeviku ai ʻae kakai.
16 So shall there be a highway for the remnant of his people who shall be left out of Assyria, —Like as it was to Israel, in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt!
Pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae hala motuʻa ki he toenga ʻo hono kakai, ʻaia ʻe toe ʻi ʻAsilia, ʻo hangē ko ia ne maʻu ʻe ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻaho naʻe ʻalu hake ai ia mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
