Jeremiah 6:20

He ko e hā hono ʻaonga ke ʻomi ʻae meʻa namu kakala kiate au mei Sipa, pea mo e tō huʻamelie mei he potu mamaʻo? ʻoku ʻikai lelei kiate au homou ngaahi feilaulau tutu, pea ʻoku ʻikai huʻamelie kiate au homou ngaahi feilaulau.”

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.

In Context

19Fanongo, ʻe māmani: vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae kovi ki he kakai ni, ko e fua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi mahalo, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea, pe ki heʻeku fono, ka kuo nau liʻaki ia.

21Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, te u ʻai ʻae ngaahi tūkiaʻanga ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ni, pea ʻe tūkia fakataha ai ʻae ngaahi tamai pea mo e ngaahi foha; pea ʻe malaʻia ʻae kaungāʻapi mo honau kāinga.”
