< Isaiah 37 >
1 On hearing this report, King Hezekiah tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and entered the house of the LORD.
A LOHE o Hezekia, ke alii, haehae iho la oia i kona lole, a uhi iho la ia ia iho i ke kapa ino, a komo aku la iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
2 And he sent Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz
A hoouna ae la oia ia Eliakima, i ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, i ke kakauolelo, a me na luna o na kahuna me ka uhiia i ke kapa ino, io Isaia la, i ke kaula, i ke keiki a Amosa.
3 to tell him, “This is what Hezekiah says: Today is a day of distress, rebuke, and disgrace; for children have come to the point of birth, but there is no strength to deliver them.
I ae la lakou ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Hezekia penei, He la popilikia keia, he la no ka hoopai ana, a me ka olelo hoino; no ka mea, ua hiki na keiki i ke kokoke hemo, aole nae he ikaika e hanau ai.
4 Perhaps the LORD your God will hear the words of the Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to defy the living God, and He will rebuke him for the words that the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that still survives.”
Malia paha e lohe o Iehova, kou Akua, i na olelo a Rabesake, ka mea a ke alii o Asuria, a kona haku i hoouna'i e hoino ai i ke Akua ola, a e hoopai hoi i na olelo a Iehova a kou Akua i lohe ai. Nolaila, e pule aku oe no ke koena o na kanaka i ikeia.
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah went to Isaiah,
A hiki ae la na kauwa a ke alii, a Hezekia io Isaia la.
6 who replied, “Tell your master that this is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid of the words you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me.
I mai la o Isaia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai i ko oukou haku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei. Mai makau oe i na olelo au i lohe ai, i na olelo a na kauwa a ke alii o Asuria i olelo hoino mai ai ia'u.
7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him so that he will hear a rumor and return to his own land, where I will cause him to fall by the sword.’”
Aia hoi, e haawi aku no au ia ia i manao, a e lohe no oia i ka lono, a e hoi aku i kona aina iho: a na'u no ia e hookulai i ka pahikaua ma kona aina iho.
8 When the Rabshakeh heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish, he withdrew and found the king fighting against Libnah.
Hoi aku la o Rabesake, a loaa ia ia ke alii o Asuria, e kaua ana ia Libena; ua lohe mua no hoi oia, ua haalele ia ia Lakisa.
9 Now Sennacherib had been warned about Tirhakah king of Cush: “He has set out to fight against you.” On hearing this, Sennacherib sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
Alaila, lohe ae la oia ia Tirehaka, i ke alii o Aitiopa, i ka i ana mai, Ke hele mai nei ia e kana ia oe. A i kona lohe ana, hoouna mai la ia i mau elele ia Hezekia, i mai la,
10 “Give this message to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you by saying that Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Hezekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, e i aku, Mai walewale oe i kou Akua au e hilinai nei, i kana olelo ana, Aole e haawiia o Ierusalema iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria.
11 Surely you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the other countries, devoting them to destruction. Will you then be spared?
Aia hoi, ua lohe no oe i ka mea a na alii o Asuria i hana'i i na aina a pau, i ka luku loa ana ia lakou; a e hoopakeleia anei oe?
12 Did the gods of the nations destroyed by my fathers rescue those nations—the gods of Gozan, Haran, and Rezeph, and of the people of Eden in Telassar?
Ua hoopakele anei na'kua o na aina i ka poe a ko'u mau makuakane i luku ai; ia Gozana, a me Harana, a me Rezepa, a me na keiki a Edena, ka poe ma Telasara?
13 Where are the kings of Hamath, Arpad, Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?’”
Auhea ke alii o Hamata, a me ke alii o Arepada, a me ke alii o ke kulanakauhale o Separevaima, a me Hena, a me Iva?
14 So Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers, read it, and went up to the house of the LORD and spread it out before the LORD.
Loaa ia Hezekia ia mau palapala ma ka lima o na elele, a heluhelu iho la. Pii aku la o Hezekia i ka hale o Iehova, a haalii aku la imua o Iehova.
15 And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD:
Pule aku la o Hezekia ia Iehova, i aku la,
16 “O LORD of Hosts, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth.
E Iehova o na kaua, e ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea noho ma na kerubima, o oe no ke Akua, o oe wale no, no na aupuni a pau o ka honua; nau no i hana i ka lani, a me ka honua.
17 Incline Your ear, O LORD, and hear; open Your eyes, O LORD, and see. Listen to all the words that Sennacherib has sent to defy the living God.
E haliu mai kou pepeiao, e Iehova, a e hoolohe mai hoi; E wehe oe i kou mau maka, e Iehova, a e naua mai; e hoolohe hoi i na olelo a pau a Sanekariba, na mea ana i hoouka mai ai e hoino i ke Akua ola.
18 Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all these countries and their lands.
He oiaio, e Iehova, ua luku aku no na'lii o Asuria i na lahuikanaka a pau, a me ko lakou aina;
19 They have cast their gods into the fire and destroyed them, for they were not gods, but only wood and stone—the work of human hands.
A ua kiola aku no i ko lakou akua iloko o ke ahi, no ka mea, he mau akua ole lakou, he hana na na lima o kanaka, he laau, a he pohaku; nolaila lakou i luku aku ai ia mau mea.
20 And now, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, O LORD, are God.”
Ano la, e Iehova ko makou Akua, e hoola mai oe ia makou mai kona lima ae, i ike na aupuni a pau o ka honua, o oe no o Iehova, o oe wale no.
21 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a message to Hezekiah: “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Because you have prayed to Me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,
Alaila, hoouna ae la o Isaia, ke keiki a Amosa io Hezekia la, i ae la, Ke i mai nei o Iehova. ke A kua o ka Iseraela penei, No kau pule ana mai ia'u no Sanekariba, ke alii o Asuria;
22 this is the word that the LORD has spoken against him: ‘The Virgin Daughter of Zion despises you and mocks you; the Daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head behind you.
Eia ka olelo a Iehova i olelo mai ai nona; Ua hoowahawaha ke kaikamahine puupaa o Ziona ia oe, Ua henehene aku ia oe; O ke kaikamahine hoi o Ierusalema, Ua luliluli oia i kona poo ia oe.
23 Whom have you taunted and blasphemed? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes in pride? Against the Holy One of Israel!
Owai kou mea i hoowahawaha ai, A olelo hoino aku ai no hoi? Ua hookiekie oe i kou leo maluna owai, A alawa hoi i kou mau maka iluna lilo, Maluna no o ka Mea Hoano o ka Iseraela?
24 Through your servants you have taunted the Lord, and you have said: “With my many chariots I have ascended to the heights of the mountains, to the remote peaks of Lebanon. I have cut down its tallest cedars, the finest of its cypresses. I have reached its farthest heights, the densest of its forests.
Ua hoowahawaha oe i ka Haku ma kau mau kauwa, i ka i ana mai, No ka lehulehu o na kaakaua o'u, Ua pii aku no wau i kahi kiekie o na mauna, I na aoao hoi o Lebanona; E kua aku no wau i kolaila mau laau kedera kiekie, A me kolaila mau laau kaa maikai; A e komo aku no wau i kona wahi kiekie, A i ka welau o kahi nahelehele o kona mahinaai.
25 I have dug wells and drunk foreign waters. With the soles of my feet I have dried up all the streams of Egypt.”
Ua kohi no wau a ua inu hoi i ka wai; A i ke kapuwai o ko'u mau wawae, ua hoomaloo aku no wau i na auwai o Aigupita.
26 Have you not heard? Long ago I ordained it; in days of old I planned it. Now I have brought it to pass, that you should crush fortified cities into piles of rubble.
Aole anei oe i lohe kahiko na'u ia i manao, A na'u hoi ia i hana i na la mamua? A i keia manawa, ua hooko no wau, I lilo oe i mea e hookahuli ai i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa, i puu pohaku.
27 Therefore their inhabitants, devoid of power, are dismayed and ashamed. They are like plants in the field, tender green shoots, grass on the rooftops, scorched before it is grown.
Nolaila i uuku ai ka ikaika o ka poe e noho ana, Ua makau hoi lakou a pilihua. Like no lakou me ka mauu o ke kula, Ua like hoi me ka nahele uliuli; Me ka mauu maluna o na hale, Me ka hua palaoa malili i kona wa e ku ana.
28 But I know your sitting down, your going out and coming in, and your raging against Me.
Aka, ua ike no wau i kou noho ana, A me kou puka ana iwaho, a me kou komo ana iloko, a me kou ukiuki ana ia'u.
29 Because your rage and arrogance against Me have reached My ears, I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your mouth; I will send you back the way you came.’
No ka mea, o kou ukiuki mai ia'u, a me kou hookiekie, Ua pii mai no, a iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao; Nolaila, e hookomo no wau i ko'u lou iloko o kou ihu, A me ko'u kaulawaha ma kou mau lehelehe. A e hoohuli aku no au ia oe ma ke ala au i hele mai ai.
30 And this will be a sign to you, O Hezekiah: This year you will eat what grows on its own, and in the second year what springs from the same. But in the third year you will sow and reap; you will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
E lilo no hoi keia i hoailona nou; E ai no oukou i keia makahiki i na mea ulu wale, A i ka lua o ka makahiki, i na mea i ulu ae mai ia mau mea mai: A i ke kolu o ka makahiki, e lulu hua oukou, a e hoiliili hua hoi, E kanu no hoi oukou i na pawaina, a e ai iho i kolaila hua.
31 And the surviving remnant of the house of Judah will again take root below and bear fruit above.
A o ke koena i pakele o ka hale o ka Iuda, E komo no kona aa ilalo, A e hua mai i ka hua maluna.
32 For a remnant will go forth from Jerusalem, and survivors from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
No ka mea, mai loko aku o Ierusalema e puka aku ke koena, A o ka poe pakele hoi, mai loko aku o ka mauna Ziona: Na ka ikaika o Iehova o na kaua e hana i keia,
33 So this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria: ‘He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow into it. He will not come before it with a shield or build up a siege ramp against it.
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova no ke alii o Asuria, Aole ia e komo iloko o keia kulanakauhale, Aole ia e pana mai i kekahi pua malaila, Aole hoi e hoike i na palekaua imua ona, Aole hoi e hana i puukaua ma kona alo.
34 He will go back the way he came, and he will not enter this city,’
Ma ke ala ana i hele mai ai, malaila no ia e hoi aku, Aole ia e komo iloko o keia kulanakauhale, wahi a Iehova.
35 ‘I will defend this city and save it for My own sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
Na'u no e malama i keia kulanakauhale, e hoola aku no'u iho, A no ka'u kauwa, no Davida.
36 Then the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 men in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the next morning, there were all the dead bodies!
Hele ae la ka anela o Iehova, a laku aku la maloko o kahi hoomoana o ko Asuria, hookahi haneri me kanawalu kumamalima tausani. A ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi! he poe kupapau make lakou a pau.
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.
Alaila, hele aku la o Sanekariba, ke alii o Asura, a haalele ae la ia wahi, a hoi aku la, a noho iho la ma Nineva.
38 One day, while he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to the sword and escaped to the land of Ararat. And his son Esar-haddon reigned in his place.
A i kona hoomana ana maloko o ka hale o Niseroka, o kona akua, alaila, pepehi iho la kana mau keikikane, o Aderameleka a me Sarezera ia ia i ka pahikaua; a pakele aku la laua maloko o ka aina o Ararata, a noho alii iho la kana keiki, o Esarehadona ma kona wahi.
