Esaia 21:1-17
21 Koʼeni te logo ʼo ʼuhiga mo te toafa ʼo te tai:*+
ʼE haʼu te malaʼia mai te toafa, mai he fenua fakamataku,+Ohage ko ni tuʼani matagi ʼe natou fueʼi te potu saute.
2 Neʼe fakaha mai he meʼa fakamataku:
ʼE kaka te tagata kaka,ʼE maumauʼi e te tagata fakatupu maumau.
Elame, ke ke hake! Metia, ke ke tau!+
ʼE au fakagata anai te ʼu lauga fuli ʼae ʼe tupu ko ia.*+
3 Ko te tupuʼaga la ʼaia ʼo taku hoha lahi.+
ʼE au teteOhage ko he fafine ʼe fanau.
ʼE mole feala ke au logo ʼi te lahi ʼo taku hoha,ʼE mole feala ke au sio ʼi te lahi ʼo taku tuʼania.
4 Kua au lotovaivai, ʼe au tekelili ʼi te mataku.
ʼE au fakaʼamu ke hoko mai la te mafoata kae ʼe au mataku.
5 Kotou teuteuʼi te laupapa pea mo ʼai te ʼu hekaʼaga!
Kotou kakai mo iinu!+
Kotou tutuʼu ake kau tama ʼaliki ʼo vali te lolo ki te meʼa tali tau!
6 Koʼeni te meʼa ʼae neʼe ui mai e Sehova:
“Alu ʼo fakanofo he tagata leʼo pea ke ina fakaha te meʼa ʼae ʼe sio ki ai.”
7 Neʼe sio ki he saliote tau ʼe toho e ni hosi,Ki he saliote tau mo ni asino,Ki he saliote tau mo ni kamelo.
Pea neʼe sio fakalelei, ʼei, neʼe tokaga lelei.
8 Pea neʼe kalaga ohage ko he laione:
“Sehova e, ʼi te tule leʼo, ʼe au nofo tuʼumaʼu ai ʼi te ʼaho,Pea ʼi te ʼu po fuli, ʼe au leʼo tuʼumaʼu ai.+
9 Koʼeni, ʼe ʼomai
Ni tagata ʼi he saliote tau ʼe toho e ni hosi!”+
Pea neʼe kalaga leʼo lahi leva:
“Kua to ia ia! Kua to ia Papiloni!+
Kua maumauʼi te ʼu fakatata fuli ʼo ʼona ʼatua ʼi te kele!”+
10 Siʼaku hahaʼi, ia koe ʼae neʼe haha ohage ko ni fulumeto,Te fua ʼo taku hahaʼaga,+Neʼe au tala atu te meʼa ʼae neʼe ui mai e Sehova ʼo te ʼatu kautau, te ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele.
11 Koʼeni te logo ʼo ʼuhiga mo Tuma:*
ʼE kalaga he tahi mai Seili:+
“Tagata leʼo, kua vave te mafoata?
Tagata leʼo, kua vave te mafoata?”
12 ʼE tali e te tagata leʼo:
“ ʼEi, kua vave pe te uhu, feia mo te poʼuli.
Kapau ʼe kotou fia faifehuʼi, kotou fehuʼi.
Kotou toe liliu mai!”
13 Koʼeni te logo ʼo ʼuhiga mo te toafa:
Hahaʼi fagona ʼo Tetane,+ʼE kotou momoe anai ʼi te poʼuli ʼi te vao matuʼa, ʼi te toafa!
14 Hahaʼi ʼo te fenua ʼo Tema,Kotou ʼave he moʼi vai kia ia ʼae ʼe fia inu,+Mo he moʼi pane kia ia ʼae ʼe feholaʼaki.
15 ʼE natou feholaki mai te ʼu heleta, mai te heleta ʼae ʼe tohoʼi mai tona ʼaiʼaga,Mai te nahau ʼae kua faoʼi ke fanahi, mai te agamalohi ʼo te tau.
16 Koʼeni te meʼa ʼae neʼe ui mai e Sehova: “ ʼE puli anai te kololia katoa ʼo Keta,+ pea ʼe hoko tonu ʼi he taʼu ʼe tahi.*
17 ʼI te kautau ʼo Keta, ko he tokosiʼi pe anai ʼe toe ʼi te kau fainahau, ko te ui ʼaia ʼa Sehova te ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele.”
