< Isaiah 61 >
1 The spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make the broken-hearted well, to say that the prisoners will be made free, and that those in chains will see the light again;
EIA no maluna o'u ka Uhane o Iehova, ka Haku, No ka mea, ua poni mai o Iehova ia'u, E hai i ka olelo maikai i ka poe hoohaahaa; Ua hoouna mai oia ia'u e wahi i ha naau ehaeha, E hai aku i ke kuu ana no ka poe i pio, A me ka wehe ana o ka halepaahao no ka poe i paa;
2 To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure has come, and the day of punishment from our God; to give comfort to all who are sad;
E hai aku hoi i ka makahiki oluolu no Iehova, A me ka la o ka inaina o ko kakou Akua; E hoomaha hoi i ka poe i kaniuhu;
3 To give them a fair head-dress in place of dust, the oil of joy in place of the clothing of grief, praise in place of sorrow; so that they may be named trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and so that he may have glory.
A e kokua aku i ka poe i u ma Ziona, E haawi i kahiko ma kahi o ka lehu, A me ka manoi o ka olioli no ke kaniuhu ana; A me ka aahu o ka hauoli hoi no ka naau kaumaha: I kapaia lakou, He mau oka no ka pono, O ke kanu ana hoi a Iehova, i hoonaniia'i oia.
4 And they will be building again the old broken walls, and will make new the old waste places, and will put up again the towns which have been waste for long generations.
E hana hou no lakou i na wahi i anaiia mamua, A e hoala hou no lakou i na mea i hoohiolo kahiko ia, A e kukulu hou lakou i na kulanakauhale i wawahiia, I na mea neoneo hoi o na hanauna he nui loa.
5 And men from strange countries will be your herdsmen, and those who are not Israelites will be your ploughmen and vine-keepers.
A e ku mai no na malihini, a e hanai i ka oukou poe holoholona, A e lilo na keiki a ke kanaka e, i poe mahiai, a i poe paipai waina na oukou.
6 But you will be named the priests of the Lord, the servants of our God: you will have the wealth of the nations for your food, and you will be clothed with their glory.
Aka, e kapaia oukou, Na kahuna o Iehova, E olelo no lakou ia oukou, He poe lawelawe na ko kakou Akua; E ai no oukou i ka waiwai o ko na aina e, A ma ko lakou nani oukou e kaena'i.
7 As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.
No ko oukou hilahila, a e uku palua ia oukou, A no ka hoopalaimaka e olioli lakou i ko lakou kuleana; Nolaila, ma ko lakou aina, e loaa palua lakou, E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli mau loa.
8 For I, the Lord, take pleasure in upright judging; I will not put up with the violent taking away of right; and I will certainly give them their reward, and I will make an eternal agreement with them.
No ka mea, owau o Iehova, ke makemake nei au i ka hoopono, Ua wahawaha aku au i ka mea i haoia, Ma ka oiaio, e haawi no wau i ka uku no ka lakou hana; A e hana no wau i berita mau loa me lakou.
9 And their seed will be noted among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: it will be clear to all who see them that they are the seed to which the Lord has given his blessing.
A e kaulana auanei ka lakou hanauna iwaena o ko na aina e, A me ka lakou poe keiki, iwaena o na lahuikanaka; O ka poe a pau e ike ia lakou, e hoomaopopo no ia lakou, O lakou ka hanauna a Iehova i hoopomaikai ai.
10 I will be full of joy in the Lord, my soul will be glad in my God; for he has put on me the clothing of salvation, covering me with the robe of righteousness, as the husband puts on a fair head-dress, and the bride makes herself beautiful with jewels.
E olioli nui au ia Iehova, E hauoli no ko'u uhane ma ko'u Akua; No ka mea, ua hoaahu mai oia ia'u i na aahu o ke ola, Ua uhi mai oia ia'u i ka holoku o ka pono, E like me ka hoonani ana o ke kanemare ia ia iho i na kahiko, E like hoi me ka wahinemare i kahikoia i kona mea gula.
11 For as the earth puts out buds, and as the garden gives growth to the seeds which are planted in it, so the Lord will make righteousness and praise to be flowering before all the nations.
No ka mea, e like me ka honua i hoopuka mai ai i kona muo, E like hoi me ka mahinaai i houlu i na mea i luluia maloko ona, Pela no o Iehova ka Haku e hoopuka mai ai i ka pono, a me ka nani, imua o ko na aina a pau.
