Isaiæ 61
1 Spiritus Domini super me, eo quod unxerit me: ad annunciandum mansuetis misit me, ut mederer contritis corde, et praedicarem captivis indulgentiam, et clausis apertionem:
ʻOku ʻiate au ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sihova; koeʻuhi kuo fakanofo au ʻe Sihova ke u malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ki he angamalū; kuo ne fekau au ke nonoʻo ʻae loto mafesi, ke fakahā ʻae tauʻatāina ki he kau pōpula, pea ke fakaava ʻae fale fakapōpula kiate kinautolu kuo haʻisia;
2 Ut praedicarem annum placabilem Domino, et diem ultionis Deo nostro: ut consolarer omnes lugentes:
Ke fakahā ʻae taʻu lelei ʻo Sihova, pea ko e ʻaho ʻoe houhau ʻo hotau ʻOtua; ke fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamahi;
3 et ponerem fortitudinem lugentibus Sion: ut darem eis coronam pro cinere, oleum gaudii pro luctu, pallium laudis pro spiritu moeroris: et vocabuntur in ea fortes iustitiae, plantatio Domini ad glorificandum.
Ke ʻatu ʻae fiefia kiate kinautolu ʻoku mamahi ʻi Saione, ke ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻae hoihoifua ko e fetongi ʻoe efuefu, ʻae lolo ʻoe fiefia ko e fetongi ʻoe mamahi, ʻae kofu ʻoe fakamālō ko e fetongi ʻoe laumālie kuo mafesi; ke ui ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe māʻoniʻoni, naʻe tō ʻe Sihova, koeʻuhi ke ongoongolelei ai ia.
4 Et aedificabunt deserta a saeculo, et ruinas antiquas erigent, et instaurabunt civitates desertas, dissipatas in generatione et generationem.
Pea te nau langa ʻaia naʻe muʻaki maumau, te nau toe fokotuʻu ʻaia naʻe fakaʻauha fuoloa, pea te nau fakafoʻou ʻae ngaahi kolo kuo liʻaki, ko e maumau ʻoe toʻutangata toko lahi.
5 Et stabunt alieni, et pascent pecora vestra: et filii peregrinorum agricolae et vinitores vestri erunt.
Pea ʻe tuʻu ʻae kau muli ʻo fafanga hoʻomou fanga manu, pea ʻe hoko ʻae fānau ʻae muli ko hoʻomou kau tangata ngoue mo hoʻomou kau tauhi vaine.
6 Vos autem Sacerdotes Domini vocabimini: Ministri Dei nostri, dicetur vobis: Fortitudinem Gentium comedetis, et in gloria earum superbietis.
Ka e fakahingoa ʻakimoutolu ko e ngaahi Taulaʻeiki ʻa Sihova: ʻe ui ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kakai ko e kau Faifekau ʻa hotau ʻOtua: te mou kai ʻae koloa ʻae kakai Senitaile, pea ʻi heʻenau ongoongolelei ʻe polepole ai ʻakimoutolu.
7 Pro confusione vestra duplici, et rubore laudabunt partem eorum: propter hoc in terra sua duplicia possidebunt, laetitia sempiterna erit eis.
Koeʻuhi ko hoʻomou mā te mou maʻu ʻae totongi ke liunga ua, pea ʻe fetongi ʻaki hoʻomou fakamaaʻi ʻae fiefia ʻi honau tofiʻa; he te mou maʻu ke liunga ua hake ʻae tofiʻa ʻi honau fonua pea temou fiefia ai ʻo taʻengata.
8 Quia ego Dominus diligens iudicium, et odio habens rapinam in holocausto: et dabo opus eorum in veritate, et foedus perpetuum feriam eis.
“He ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou ʻofa ki he fakamaau, ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki he kaihaʻa ke feilaulau tutu ʻaki; pea te u fakahinohino ʻenau ngāue ʻi he moʻoni, pea te u fai ʻae fuakava taʻengata mo kinautolu.
9 Et scient in Gentibus semen eorum, et germen eorum in medio populorum: omnes, qui viderint eos, cognoscent illos, quia isti sunt semen, cui benedixit Dominus.
Pea ʻe ʻilo honau hako ʻe he kakai Senitaile, pea mo ʻenau fānau ʻi he kakai: ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamata kiate kinautolu, te nau fakahā ʻakinautolu ko e hako kuo tāpuakiʻi ʻe Sihova.”
10 Gaudens gaudebo in Domino, et exultabit anima mea in Deo meo: quia induit me vestimentis salutis: et indumento iustitiae circumdedit me, quasi sponsum decoratum corona, et quasi sponsam ornatam monilibus suis.
Te u fiefia lahi ʻia Sihova, ʻe nekeneka hoku laumālie ʻi hoku ʻOtua: he kuo ne fakakofuʻaki au ʻae kofu ʻoe fakamoʻui, kuo ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki au ʻae kofu tōtōlofa ʻoe māʻoniʻoni, ʻo hangē ko e tangata taʻane ʻoku teuʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa teunga, pea hangē ʻoku teuʻi ʻaki ʻe he taʻahine fakamaʻu hono ngaahi maka koloa.
11 Sicut enim terra profert germen suum, et sicut hortus semen suum germinat, sic Dominus Deus germinabit iustitiam, et laudem coram universis Gentibus.
ʻO hangē ʻoku tupu mei he kelekele hono moto, pea mo e ngoue ʻoku ne fakatupu hake ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tūtuuʻi ki ai; ʻe pehē, ʻe pule ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova ke tupu hake ʻae māʻoniʻoni mo e fakamālō ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
