Deuteronomy 32
1 Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
E HALIU i ka pepeiao, e na lani, na'u e na lani, na'u e oleo aku; E hoolohe mai, e ka honua, i na olelo a kuu waha.
2 Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.
E haule iho kuu ao ana e like me ka ua, E helelei iho ka'u olelo e like me ka hau; Me ka ua liilii hoi maluna o ka launahele hou, A me ka ua nui maluna o ka weuweu;
3 For I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Ascribe greatness to our God!
No ka mea, e hai aku au i ka inoa o Iehova, E hoomana aku oukou i ko kakou Akua.
4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.
Oia ka Pohaku, ua hemolele kana hana ana; He pono hoi kona mau aoao a pau: He Akua olelo oiaio, aole ona hewa, He pono, he pololei hoi ia.
5 His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.
Ua hana ino lakou, aole noho i keiki nana, Oia ko lakou kina: He hanauna ino lakou, a me ka lanwili.
6 Is this how you repay the LORD, O foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and Creator? Has He not made you and established you?
Pela anei oukou e hoihoi aku ai ia Iehova, E ka poe kanaka hawawa, a me ka naaupo? Aole anei ia o kou Makua, nana oe i kuai? Aole anei ia i hana mai ia oe, a i hookupaa ia oe?
7 Remember the days of old; consider the years long past. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will inform you.
E hoomanao i na manawa kahiko, E noonoo i na makahiki o na hanauna a pau: E ninau aku i kou makuakane, nana e hoike mai ia oe; I na lunakahiko ou, na lakou e hai mai ia oe.
8 When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He divided the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
I ka manawa a ka Mea kiekie i puunaue ai ka aina no na lahuikanaka, I ka manawa ana i hookaawale ai na keiki a Adamu, Hoike mai ia i na palena no na kanaka, E like me ka nui o na mamo a Iseraela.
9 But the LORD’s portion is His people, Jacob His allotted inheritance.
O ke kuleana o Iehova, kona poe kanaka ia; O Iakoba hoi kona hooilina.
10 He found him in a desert land, in a barren, howling wilderness; He surrounded him, He instructed him, He guarded him as the apple of His eye.
Loaa oia ia ia ma ka aina nahelehele, A ma ka waonahele neoneo e uwo ana; Alakai aku la ia ia mai o a o, ao mai oia ia ia, Malama mai oia ia ia e like me ke kii onohi o kona maka.
11 As an eagle stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings to catch them and carried them on His pinions.
Me he aeto la e hoala ana i ko ka punana, A hoolahalahai maluna o na keiki ana, Hohola i kona mau eheu, a lawe ae la ia lakou, A kaikai aku maluna o kona mau eheu;
12 The LORD alone led him, and no foreign god was with him.
Na Iehova wale no oia i alakai aku, Aole hoi he akua e me ia.
13 He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him the produce of the field. He nourished him with honey from the rock and oil from the flinty crag,
Hooholoholo ae la oia ia ia maluna o na wahi kiekie o ka honua, I ai iho ia i ka hua o na mahinaai, Hanai mai oia ia ia i ka meli mailoko mai o ka pohaku, I ka aila hoi mailoko mai o ka pohaku paa:
14 with curds from the herd and milk from the flock, with the fat of lambs, with rams from Bashan, and goats, with the choicest grains of wheat. From the juice of the finest grapes you drank the wine.
Me ka bata o ka bipi, a me ka waiu hipa, A me na keikihipa momona, A me na hipakane no Basana, a me na kaokane, A me ka palaoa maikai loa; Inu iho la oe i ke kokohuawaina, i ka waina maikai.
15 But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked— becoming fat, bloated, and gorged. He abandoned the God who made him and scorned the Rock of his salvation.
Aka, a momona o Iesuruna, keehi mai la ia: Ua momona oe, ua puipui, ua puni oe i ka momona: Alaila haalele ia i ke Akua, nana ia i hana, Hoowahawaha hoi i ka Pohaku o kona ola.
16 They provoked His jealousy with foreign gods; they enraged Him with abominations.
Hoolili aku lakou ia ia ma na akua e, Hoonaukiuki lakou ia ia i na mea haumia.
17 They sacrificed to demons, not to God, to gods they had not known, to newly arrived gods, which your fathers did not fear.
Mohai aku lakou na na daimonio, na mea akua ole; Na akua ike ole ia e lakou, Na mea hou, he hou ka puka ana mai, Na mea makau ole ia e na makua o oukou.
18 You ignored the Rock who brought you forth; you forgot the God who gave you birth.
Manao ole iho la oe i ka Pohaku, nana oe i hoohanau, A hoopoina i ke Akua nana oe i hana.
19 When the LORD saw this, He rejected them, provoked to anger by His sons and daughters.
A ike mai la o Iehova, inaina mai ia, No ka hoonaukiuki mai o na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ana.
20 He said: “I will hide My face from them; I will see what will be their end. For they are a perverse generation— children of unfaithfulness.
I iho la ia, E huna au i ko'u maka mai o lakou aku, E ike auanei au i ke ano o ko lakou hope: No ka mea, he hanauna ino lakou, He poe keiki aole he oiaio iloko o lakou.
21 They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will make them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation without understanding.
Hoolili mai lakou ia'u ma ka mea, aole he Akua, Hoonaukiuki mai lakou ia'u ma ko lakou mau mea lapuwale; A na'u hoi lakou e hoolili aku ma ka mea kanaka ole, E hoonaukiuki aku hoi au ia lakou ma ka lahuikanaka naaupo.
22 For a fire has been kindled by My anger, and it burns to the depths of Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and scorches the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
No ka mea, ua hoaaia ke ahi e kuu inaina, A e enaena ia a hiki ilalo lilo i ka po, A e hoopau ia i ka honua a me kona hua iho, A e puhi ia i ke ahi i na kumu mauna. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will heap disasters upon them; I will spend My arrows against them.
E hoiliili au i na ino maluna iho o lakou: E pana aku au i ka'u mau pua ia lakou.
24 They will be wasted from hunger and ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague; I will send the fangs of wild beasts against them, with the venom of vipers that slither in the dust.
E pau auanei lakou i ka pololi, E aiia hoi lakou i ke ahi wela, a me ka make awaawa: O ka niho o na mea hihiu ka'u e hoouna aku ai maluna o lakou, A me na mea make o na nahesa o ka honua.
25 Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
O ka pahikaua mawaho, a me ka makau maloko, E luku i ke keikikane, a me ke kaikamahine, I ke keiki waiu, a me ke kanaka poohina.
26 I would have said that I would cut them to pieces and blot out their memory from mankind,
I iho la au, E hooauhee aku au ia lakou i na pilikia, E hokai hoi au i ko lakou lono iwaena o kanaka;
27 if I had not dreaded the taunt of the enemy, lest their adversaries misunderstand and say: ‘Our own hand has prevailed; it was not the LORD who did all this.’”
Ina aole au i makau i ka inaina o ka poe enemi, O hana ku e mai ko lakou poe enemi, O olelo mai lakou, Na ko makou lima kiekie, Aole na Iehova i hana keia mau mea a pau,
28 Israel is a nation devoid of counsel, with no understanding among them.
No ka mea, he lahuikanaka nele i ka naauao, Aole hoi he ike maloko o lakou.
29 If only they were wise, they would understand it; they would comprehend their fate.
Ina, i naauao lakou a i ike lakou i keia, A i manao lakou i ko lakou hope!
30 How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?
Pehea la e alualu ai kekahi i ke tausani hookahi, A o na mea elua e hoopuehu ai i na tausani he umi, Ke ole i kuai aku ko lakou Pohaku ia lakou, Ke ole hoi i hoolilo aku o Iehova ia lakou?
31 For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies concede.
O ko lakou pohaku, aole like ia me ko kakou Pohaku, Ma ka hooiaio ana mai o ko kakou poe enemi.
32 But their vine is from the vine of Sodom and from the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poisonous; their clusters are bitter.
No ka mea, o ko lakou kumuwaina, he kumuwaina no Sodoma, A no na mala hoi o Gomora: O ka lakou huawaina, he huawaina make, A o na huhuiwaina a lakou, he awaawa ia:
33 Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.
O ka lakou waina, he mea make o na moolele, A me ka mea make ino o na moonihoawa.
34 “Have I not stored up these things, sealed up within My vaults?
Aole anei i hunaia keia mea me au, A i hoopaaia iwaena pu me o'u waiwai?
35 Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; for their day of disaster is near, and their doom is coming quickly.”
Ia'u no ka hoopai aku, a me ka hoouku: E hoopahee auanei ko lakou wawae: No ka mea, ua kokoke mai ka la e poino ai lakou, Ua lalelale mai na mea e hiki mai ana maluna o lakou.
36 For the LORD will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants when He sees that their strength is gone and no one remains, slave or free.
No ka mea, e hoopai auanei o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, A e minamina no ia i kana poe kauwa, Ke ike ia, ua nawaliwali ka lima, Aohe mea i paa, aohe mea i paa ole.
37 He will say: “Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
A e olelo mai ia, Auhea ae nei ko lakou mau akua, Ka pohaku a lakou i hilinai ai,
38 which ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their drink offerings? Let them rise up and help you; let them give you shelter!
Ka mea i ai i ka momona o ka lakou mohai, Ka mea i inu i ka waina o ka lakou mohaiinu? E ku mai lakou e kokua mai ia oukou, A e hoomalu mai ia oukou.
39 See now that I am He; there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
E nana oukou ano, Owau, Owau no ia, Aohe akua e ae, Owau wale no: Owau ke pepehi, Owau ke hoola; Owau ke hooeha, Owau ke hoola; Aohe mea nana e hoopakele ae mai kuu lima aku.
40 For I lift up My hand to heaven and declare: As surely as I live forever,
No ka mea, ke kaikai nei au i kuu lima ma ka lani, Me ka i iho, He ola mau loa ko'u.
41 when I sharpen My flashing sword, and My hand grasps it in judgment, I will take vengeance on My adversaries and repay those who hate Me.
Ina e hookala au i kuu pahikaua huali, A e lawe kuu lima i ka hooponopono; E hoopai aku au i kuu poe enemi, E hoouku aku au i ka poe e inaina mai ia'u.
42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, while My sword devours flesh— the blood of the slain and captives, the heads of the enemy leaders.”
E hooinu au i na pua a u i ke koko a ona, E ai iho kuu pahikaua i ka io; Me ke koko o ka mea i pepehiia, a me ko ka mea i pio, I ke poo hoi o na'lii o ka poe enemi.
43 Rejoice, O heavens, with Him, and let all God’s angels worship Him. Rejoice, O nations, with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His children. He will take vengeance on His adversaries and repay those who hate Him; He will cleanse His land and His people.
E olioli oukou, e na aina, me kona poe kanaka; No ka mea, e uku auanei no ia i ke koko o kona poe kauwa, A hoopai no ia i kona poe enemi, A e hoola no ia i ka aina o kona poe kanaka.
44 Then Moses came with Joshua son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people.
Hele mai o Mose a hai aku i na pepeiao o kanaka i na huaolelo a pau o keia mele, oia a me Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna.
45 When Moses had finished reciting all these words to all Israel,
A hoopau ae la o Mose i ka olelo ana aku i keia mau olelo a pau i ka Iseraela a pau.
46 he said to them, “Take to heart all these words I testify among you today, so that you may command your children to carefully follow all the words of this law.
I aku la ia ia lakou, E noonoo pono ko oukou naau i na olelo a pau a'u e hoike aku nei ia oukou i keia la; oia ka oukou e kauoha aku ai i na keiki a oukou e malama, e hana hoi i na olelo a pau o keia kanawai.
47 For they are not idle words to you, because they are your life, and by them you will live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
Aole keia he mea lapuwale no oukou, no ka mea, o ko oukou ola keia; a ma keia mea e hooloihi ai oukou i na la ma ka aina, kahi a oukou e hele aku nei i kela kapa o Ioredane e noho.
48 On that same day the LORD said to Moses,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose ia la no, i mai la.
49 “Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo, in the land of Moab across from Jericho, and view the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites as their own possession.
E pii aku oe i keia kuahiwi, i Abarima, ma ka puu o Nebo, ma ka aina o Moaba, e ku pono ana i Ieriko, a e nana i ka aina o Kanaana, a'u e haawi aku nei i wahi e noho ai no na mamo a Iseraela;
50 And there on the mountain that you climb, you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.
A e make oe ma ke kuahiwi, kahi au e pii aku ai, a e hui pu ia oe me kou poe kanaka, e like me ka make ana o Aarona kou kaikuaana, a hui pu ia oia me kona poe kanaka.
51 For at the waters of Meribah-kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you broke faith with Me among the Israelites by failing to treat Me as holy in their presence.
No ka mea, ua hana hewa olua ia'u iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela ma ka wai o Meriba, ma Kadesa, i ka waonahele o Zina; i ko olua hoano ole mai ia'u mawaena o na mamo a Iseraela.
52 Although you shall see from a distance the land that I am giving the Israelites, you shall not enter it.”
E ike no nae oe i ka aina, aka, aole oe e hele aku ilaila, i ka aina a'u e haawi aku nei i na mamo a Iseraela.
