ʻIsaia 1:4-15

⁴Oiau! ʻAe puleʻanga angakovi, ko e kakai māfasia ʻi he hia, ko e hako fai meʻa kovi, ko e fānau ʻoku fakahala: kuo nau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, kuo nau fakahouhauʻi ʻae tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, kuo nau fakaholomui.

⁵Ko e hā ʻe toe teʻia ai ʻakimoutolu? ʻE tupulaki pe hoʻomou angatuʻu: ʻoku mahaki ʻae ʻulu kotoa pē, pea vaivai mo e loto kotoa pē.

⁶Mei he ʻaofi vaʻe ʻo aʻu ki he ʻulu ʻoku ʻikai ha haohaoa ʻi ai; ka ko e lavea, mo e volu, mo e pala kovi: ʻoku teʻeki ai fakamaʻopo, pe nonoʻo, pe feʻauaki ʻae lolo faitoʻo.

⁷Kuo lala homou fonua, kuo vela homou ngaahi kolo ʻi he afi: pea ko homou fonua, ʻoku kai ʻo ʻosi ʻe he kakai muli ʻi homou ʻao, pea ʻoku lala ia, ʻo hangē kuo fakaʻauha ʻe he kau muli.

⁸Pea kuo tuku ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Saione ʻo hangē ko e fale siʻi ʻi he ngoue vaine, ʻo hangē ko e fale leʻo ʻi he ngoue kukumipa, ʻo hangē ko e kolo kuo kāpui ʻe he tau.

⁹Ka ne ʻikai tuku kiate kitautolu ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ha tokosiʻi, pehē, kuo tau hangē ko Sotoma, pea kuo tau tatau mo Komola.

¹⁰Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau pule ʻo Sotoma; fakafanongo ki he fono ʻa hotau ʻOtua, ʻakimoutolu ko e kakai ʻo Komola.

¹¹‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Ko e hā hono ʻaonga ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi feilaulau lahi kiate au? Kuo u fiu ʻi he feilaulau ʻaki ʻae fanga sipitangata, mo e ngako ʻoe manu sino; pea ʻoku ʻikai te u fiemālie ʻi he toto ʻoe fanga pulu, pe ko e fanga lami, pe ko e fanga kosi tangata.

¹²‌ʻOka mou ka haʻu ke fakahā ʻakimoutolu ʻi hoku ʻao, ko hai kuo ne fekau ke ʻomi ʻae meʻa ni ʻi homou nima, ke malaki hoku ngaahi potu tapu?

¹³‌ʻOua naʻa toe ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau taʻeʻaonga; ko e meʻa fakalielia kiate au ʻae tutu ʻoe ʻakau namu lelei; ko e ngaahi māhina foʻou mo e ngaahi ʻaho tapu, mo e ui ke fakataha, ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa kātaki; pea naʻa mo e fakataha ke lotu ko e angahala ia.

¹⁴‌ʻOku fehiʻa ʻa hoku laumālie ki hoʻomou ngaahi māhina foʻou mo hoʻomou ngaahi kātoanga: ko e meʻa fakamamahi ia kiate au; kuo u fiu ʻi hono kātaki.

¹⁵‌ʻOka mou ka mafao homou nima, te u fufū hoku fofonga ʻiate kimoutolu: ʻio, ʻoka mou ka hū ʻo liunga lahi, ʻe ʻikai te u fanongo: he ʻoku pito homou nima ʻi he toto.
