< Fakahā 13 >
1 Pea ne u tuʻu ʻi he ʻoneʻone ʻoe tahi, pea u mamata ʻoku ʻalu hake mei he tahi ʻae manu fekai, naʻe fitu hono ʻulu pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae nifo ʻe hongofulu, pea naʻe ʻi hono ngaahi nifo ʻae pale ʻe hongofulu, pea ʻi hono ngaahi ʻulu ʻae hingoa ko Taukae ʻOtua.
And (he stood *N(K)O*) upon the sand of the sea. And I saw out of the sea a beast rising, having horns ten and heads seven and on the horns of it ten royal crowns and upon the heads of it (names *N(K)O*) of blasphemy.
2 Pea ko e manu fekai ʻaia ne u mamata ai, naʻe tatau mo e lēpati, pea ko hono vaʻe naʻe hangē ko e vaʻe ʻo ha pea, pea ko hono ngutu naʻe hangē ko e ngutu ʻo ha laione: pea naʻe ʻatu ki ai ʻe he fuʻu ngata ʻa ʻene mālohi ʻaʻana, mo hono nofoʻanga, mo e pule lahi.
And the beast that I saw was like as a leopard and the feet of it like (a bear’s *N(k)O*) and the mouth of it like [the] mouth of a lion. And gave to it the dragon the power of him and the throne of him and authority great.
3 Pea ne u mamata naʻe hangē kuo lavea ʻo mate hono foʻi ʻulu ʻe taha; ka naʻe toe moʻui pe hono lavea fakamate: pea naʻe fakatumutumu ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻo muimui ʻi he manu fekai.
And (I saw *K*) one of the heads of it ([was] as *NK(o)*) slain to death, And the wound the of death of it was healed, and (marveled *NK(o)*) (in *ko*) all ([on] the earth *NK(o)*) after the beast.
4 Pea naʻa nau hū ki he fuʻu ngata ʻaia ne ne ʻatu ʻae mālohi ki he manu fekai: ʻonau hū ki he manu fekai, ʻonau pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku tatau mo e manu fekai? Ko hai ʻoku faʻa fai ke tauʻi ia?”
And they worshiped (the dragon *N(k)O*) (that *N(k)(o)*) (gave *NK(o)*) authority to the beast and they worshiped (the beast *N(k)O*) saying; Who [is] like as the beast (And *no*) who (is able *NK(o)*) to make war against it?
5 Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻae ngutu ke lea fie lahi, mo taukae ki he ʻOtua; pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae pule ke fai ʻae tau ʻi he māhina ʻe fāngofulu ma ua,
And was given to it a mouth speaking great things and (blasphemies *NK(o)*) and was given to it authority (war *O*) to act months forty (and *no*) two.
6 Pea ne faai hono ngutu ʻi he lea taukae ki he ʻOtua, ke lauʻikovi hono huafa, mo hono fale fehikitaki, mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he langi.
And it opened the mouth of it unto (blasphemies *N(k)O*) against God to blaspheme the name of Him and the tabernacle of Him, (and *k*) those in heaven dwelling.
7 Pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ke ne tauʻi ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni, pea ke ne ikuna ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae pule ki he ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e ngaahi lea, mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
And there was given to it to make war with the saints and to overcome them And was given to it authority over every tribe (and people *NO*) and tongue and nation.
8 Pea ʻe hū kiate ia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai tohi honau hingoa ʻi he tohi ʻoe moʻui ʻoe Lami, ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi talu mei he fakatupu ʻo māmani.
And will worship (it *N(k)O*) all those dwelling on the earth, (each of whom *N(k)O*) not have been written (the name *N(k)O*) (of him *no*) in (the book *N(k)O*) of life of the Lamb which slain from [the] founding of [the] world.
9 Kapau ʻoku telinga ha taha, pea fakafanongo ia.
If anyone has an ear, he should hear.
10 Ko ia ʻoku ne tataki ki he pōpula, ʻe moʻua ia ki he pōpula: ko ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā, ʻoku totonu ke tāmateʻi ʻaki ia ʻae heletā. Ko eni ʻae faʻa kātaki mo e tui ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni.
If anyone (into *n(o)*) captivity (gathers *K*) into captivity he goes, If anyone with [the] sword (is to be killed, *N(k)O*) (it is necessary for *ko*) him by [the] sword [is] to be killed; Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
11 Pea ne u mamata ki he manu fekai ʻe taha ʻoku ʻalu hake ʻi he fonua; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae nifoʻi ʻulu ʻe ua, naʻe hangē ia ko e lami, pea naʻa ne lea ʻo hangē ha fuʻu ngata.
And I saw another beast rising out of the earth, and it had horns two like as a lamb and it was speaking like a dragon.
12 Pea ʻoku fai ʻe ia ʻae pule kotoa pē ʻoe ʻuluaki manu fekai naʻe muʻa ʻiate ia, ʻo ne fai ke hū ʻa māmani mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ai ki he ʻuluaki manu fekai, ʻi heʻene moʻui ʻa hono lavea. Naʻa ne mei mate ai.
And the authority of the first beast all it exercises on behalf of it and (makes *NK(o)*) the earth and those in it dwelling that (they will worship *N(k)O*) the beast first, of whom was healed the wound the fatal of it.
13 Pea ʻoku fai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaofo lahi, ʻo ne fai ke ʻalu hifo ʻae afi mei he langi ki he fonua, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai,
And it works signs great so that even fire it may cause out of heaven (to come down to *NK(o)*) the earth in the presence of men.
14 Pea ne kākaaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana ko ia naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae mālohi ke fai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe manu fekai; ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi mamani, ke nau ngaohi ha fakatātā ki he manufekai, ʻaia naʻe lavea ʻi he heletā, kae moʻui pe.
And it deceives (those *k*) (mine *O*) who dwelling on the earth through the signs that were given to it to perform before the beast telling to those dwelling on the earth to make an image to the beast (that *N(k)O*) (has *NK(o)*) the wound (from *o*) of the sword and has lived.
15 Pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ke ne foaki ʻae moʻui ki he fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai, ke lea ai ʻae fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai, pea pule ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻikai te nau hū ki he fakatātā ʻoe manu fekai.
And there was given (to it *NK(o)*) to give breath to the image of the beast so that also may speak the image of the beast, and may cause that as many as (might *N(k)O*) not shall worship (the image *N(k)O*) of the beast shall be killed.
16 Pea naʻa ne puleʻi kotoa pē, ʻae iiki mo e lalahi, ʻae maʻumeʻa mo e masiva, ʻae tauʻatāina mo e pōpula, ke nau maʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi honau nima toʻomataʻu, pe ʻi honau foʻi laʻē:
And it causes all the small and the great and the rich and the poor and the free and the servants, that (it may give *N(k)(o)*) to them (a mark *N(k)O*) on the hand of them right or on (the *N(k)O*) (forehead *N(K)O*) of them,
17 Pea ke ʻoua naʻa fakatau mai pe fakatau atu ʻe ha taha, ka ko ia pe kuo ʻi ai ʻae fakaʻilonga, pe ʻae hingoa ʻoe manu fekai, pe ko e lau ʻo hono hingoa.
and that no one (may be able *NK(o)*) to buy or to sell only except the [one] having the mark — (or *K*) the name of the beast or the number of the name of it.
18 Ko eni ʻae poto. Ko ia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ʻilo, ke ne lau hono lau ʻoe manu fekai: he ko e lau ia ʻoe tangata; pea ko hono lau ko e onongeau ma onongofulu ma ono.
Here the wisdom is. The [one] having (*k*) understanding he should count the number of the beast, number for a man’s it is, and the number of it (is *o*) (six hundred sixty *N(K)O*) (six. *N(k)O*)
