< Zechariah 10 >

1 Ask the LORD for rain in springtime; the LORD makes the storm clouds, and He will give everyone showers of rain and crops in the field.
E NOI aku oukou ia Iehova i ka ua i ka manawa ua hope; E hana mai o Iehova i ka uila, A e haawi mai ia lakou i ka ua nui, I kela kanaka i keia kanaka i ka laauikiai o ke kula.
2 For idols speak deceit and diviners see illusions; they tell false dreams and offer empty comfort. Therefore the people wander like sheep, oppressed for lack of a shepherd.
No ka mea, ua olelo lapuwale na kii, A ua wanana na kaula i ka mea wahahee, A ua hoike mai i na moeuhane hoopunipuni; He mea ole ko lakou hooluolu ana; Nolaila auwana aku la lakou e like me na ohana hipa; Ua popilikia lakou, no ka mea, aohe kahuhipa.
3 “My anger burns against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders. For the LORD of Hosts attends to His flock, the house of Judah; He will make them like His royal steed in battle.
Hoaia aku la kuu inaina i na kahuhipa, A e hoopai auanei au i ka poe kao Kane. No ka mea, na Iehova o na kaua e ike mai i kona ohana, i ka ohana a Iuda; A e hoolike ia lakou me kona lio maikai iloko o ke kaua.
4 The cornerstone will come from Judah, the tent peg from him, as well as the battle bow and every ruler together.
Mailoko ae ona ka pohaku kumu kihi, Mailoko ae ona ka makia, Mailoko ae ona ke kakaka kaua; Mailoko pu aku no hoi ona i hele mai ai na mea hookoikoi a pau.
5 They will be like mighty men in battle, trampling the enemy in the mire of the streets. They will fight because the LORD is with them, and they will put the horsemen to shame.
A e like auanei lakou me na koa, E hehi iho ana i ka nenelu o na alanui iloko o ke kaua: A e hookaua aku lakou, No ka mea, me lakou pu o Iehova, A e hoohokaia ka poe hoohololio.
6 I will strengthen the house of Judah and save the house of Joseph. I will restore them because I have compassion on them, and they will be as though I had not rejected them. For I am the LORD their God, and I will answer them.
A e hooku paa no au i ka ohana a Iuda, A e hoola au i ka ohana a Iosepa, A e hoihoi hou mai au ia lakou e hoonoho ia lakou, no ka mea, ua aloha au ia lakou; A e like auanei lakou me ka poe a'u i hoohemo ole ai; No ka mea, owau no Iehova o ko lakou Akua, a e hoolohe auanei au ia lakou.
7 Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their hearts will be glad as with wine. Their children will see it and be joyful; their hearts will rejoice in the LORD.
A e like ko Eperaima me ke kanaka koa, A e olioli ko lakou naau, e like me ka mea inu waina: E nana aku ka lakou poe keiki, me ka olioli, A e hauoli ko lakou naau ia Iehova.
8 I will whistle for them to gather, for I have redeemed them; and they will be as numerous as they once were.
E pio aku no au ia lakou, a e houluulu au ia lakou, No ka mea, e hoola auanei au ia lakou; A e mahuahua auanei lakou, me ka lakou i mahuahua'i mamua.
9 Though I sow them among the nations, they will remember Me in distant lands; they and their children will live and return.
E lulu aku hoi au ia lakou iwaena o na lahuikanaka, Aka, e hoomanao mai lakou ia'u ma na aina mamao aku; A e ola lakou me ka lakou poe keiki, a e huli hou mai.
10 I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon until no more room is found for them.
E alakai hou au ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, A e houluulu ia lakou mai Asuria mai, A e alakai au ia lakou i ka aina o Gileada a o Lebanona, Aole hoi e lawa ka aina no lakou.
11 They will pass through the sea of distress and strike the waves of the sea; all the depths of the Nile will dry up. The pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.
A e hele aku ia mawaena o ke kai me ka pilikia, Aka, e hahau ia i na ale o ke kai, A e hoomaloo ia i na wahi hohonu a pau o ka muliwai; E hoohioloia ke kiekie o Asuria, A e laweia'ku ke kookoomoi o Aigupita.
12 I will strengthen them in the LORD, and in His name they will walk,”
A e hooikaika aku au ia lakou ma o Iehova la, A ma kona inoa lakou e hele ai, wahi a Iehova.
