Esias 15

1 THE WORD AGAINST THE LAND OF MOAB. By night the land of Moab shall be destroyed; for by night the wall of the land of Moab shall be destroyed.

Ko e tala mamafa ʻoku kau ki Moape. Koeʻuhi kuo fakaʻauha ʻa ʻAla-Moape ʻi he pō, pea fakalongo pē ia; koeʻuhi kuo fakaʻauha ʻa Kili Moape ʻi he pō, pea fakalongo pē ia;

2 Grieve for yourselves; for even Debon, where your altar is, shall be destroyed: there shall you go up to weep, over Nabau of the land of Moab: howl you: baldness shall be on every head, [and] all arms [shall be] wounded.

Kuo ʻalu ia ki Pasiti, pea ki Tiponi, ko e ngaahi potu māʻolunga, ke tangi: ʻE tangilāulau ʻa Moape kia Nipo, pea kia Mitipa: ʻe tula honau ʻulu kotoa pē, pea ʻe kosi ʻae kava kotoa pē.

3 Gird yourselves with sackcloth in her streets: and lament upon her roofs, and in her streets, and in her ways; howl all of you with weeping.

Te nau nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa ʻi honau ngaahi hala: pea tangilāulau kotoa pē, pea tangi lahi ʻi honau tuʻa fale, pea ʻi honau ngaahi hala.

4 For Esebon and Eleale have cried: their voice was heard to Jassa: therefore the loins of the region of Moab cry aloud; her soul shall know.

Pea ʻe tangi ʻa Hesiponi, mo ʻIliale: ʻe ongoʻi honau leʻo ʻo aʻu ki Sehasi: ko ia ʻe kalanga ai ʻae kautau toʻo mahafu ʻo Moape; ʻe mamahi ai ia ʻi heʻene moʻui.

5 The heart of the region of Moab cries within her to Segor; for it is [as] a heifer of three years old: and on the ascent of Luith they shall go up to you weeping by the way of Aroniim: she cries, Destruction, and trembling.

‌ʻE tangi hoku loto koeʻuhi ko Moape; ʻe ʻalu ki Soa ʻene kau hola, ʻo hangē ha pulu kuo tolu taʻu: ʻoku nau tangi ʻi heʻenau ʻalu hake ki Luhiti; ʻio, ʻi he hala ʻo Holonaimi te nau kalanga ʻaki ʻae tangi ʻoe fakaʻauha.

6 The water of Nemerim shall be desolate, and the grass thereof shall fail: for there shall be no green grass.

Koeʻuhi ʻe lala ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo Nimilimi: he kuo mae ʻae mohuku mōmoa, pea kuo ʻikai ʻae mohuku mata, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa lau maʻuiʻui.

7 Shall [Moab] even thus be delivered? for I [will] bring the Arabians upon the valley, and they shall take it.

Ko ia ko e koloa lahi kuo nau maʻu, pea mo ia kuo nau tānaki, te nau ʻave ki he vaitafe ʻoe ngaahi uilou.

8 For the cry has reached the border of the region of Moab, [even] of Agalim; and her howling [has gone] as far as the well of Aelim.

He kuo takatakai ʻe he tangi ʻae ngataʻanga ʻo Moape; kuo aʻu ʻene kalanga ki Ekelemi, pea mo e tangilāulau ʻo ia ki Pealimi.

9 And the water of Dimon shall be filled with blood: for I will bring Arabians upon Dimon, and I will take away the seed of Moab, and Ariel, and the remnant of Adama.

‌ʻE fonu ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo Timoni ʻi he toto: he te u toe ʻomi ʻae kovi ki Timoni, ʻae fanga laione kiate ia ʻoku hao ʻi Moape, pea ki hono toe ʻoe fonua.
