Esias 50
1 Thus saith the Lord, Of what kind is your mother's bill of divorcement, by which I put her away? or to which debtor have I sold you? Behold, ye are sold for your sins, and for your iniquities have I put your mother away.
KE ninau mai nei o Iehova penei, Auhea ka palapala hoohemo na ko oukou makuwahine? Ka mea a'u i hoohemo ai? Ua kuai lilo aku au ia oukou no wai o ka poe a'u i aie ai? Aia hoi, ua kuai lilo aku oukou ia oukou iho no ko oukou hewa, A no ko oukou hala, ua hoohemoia ko oukou makuwahine.
2 Why did I come, and there was no man? [why] did I call, and there was none to hearken? Is not my hand strong to redeem? or can I not deliver? behold, by my rebuke I will dry up the sea, and make rivers a wilderness; and their fish shall be dried up because there is no water, and shall die for thirst.
Ia'u i hele mai ai, heaha ka mea i kanaka ole ai? A ia'u i hea aku ai, aohe mea nana i o mai? Ua hoopokole loa ia anei ko'u lima, i ole au e hoola aku? Aole anei o'u mana e hoopakele ai? Aia hoi, i kuu papa ana, hoomaloo no wau i ke kai, A hoolilo no wau i na muliwai, i waonahele; Pilau mai la ko lakou ia, no ka mea, aohe wai, e make hoi, no ka makewai.
3 I will clothe the sky with darkness, and will make its covering as sackcloth.
Hoaahu no au i na lani i ka pouli, A kau aku au i ke kapa makena, i uhi no lakou.
4 The Lord [even] God gives me the tongue of instruction, to know when it is fit to speak a word: he has appointed for me early, he has given me an ear to hear:
Ua haawi mai o Iehova ka Haku i ke alelo o ka poe akamai na'u, I ike au i ka hooikaika aku i ka mea luhi me ka olelo, Hoala mai no oia i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, Hoala mai no oia i ko'u pepeiao, e lohe, e like me ka mea i aoia.
5 and the instruction of the Lord, even the Lord, opens mine ears, and I do not disobey, nor dispute.
Ua hoohakahaka o Iehova, ka Haku, i ko'u pepeiao, Aole hoi au i kipi aku, aole au i hoi hope.
6 I gave my back to scourges, and my cheeks to blows; and I turned not away my face from the shame of spitting:
Haawi no au i ko'u kua i ka poe hahau, A me ko'u mau papalina i ka poe i uhuki lauoho: Aole au i huna i ko'u maka, mai ka hilahila, a me ke kuha ana.
7 but the Lord God became my helper; therefore I was not ashamed, but I set my face as a solid rock; and I know that I shall never be ashamed,
Na Iehova, ka Haku e kokua mai ia'u, Nolaila, aole au e hoopalaimaka; Nolaila hoi au i kau ai i ko'u maka, me he pohaku paea la, A ua ike no au, aole au e hilahila ana.
8 for he that has justified me draws near; who is he that pleads with me? let him stand up against me at the same time: yea, who is he that pleads with me? let him draw nigh to me.
Ua kokoke mai no ka mea nana au e hoapono; Owai hoi ka mea hakaka me au? E ku pu aku maua: Owai ko'u hoapaio? E hookokoke mai oia ia'u.
9 Behold, the Lord, the Lord, will help me; who will hurt me? behold, all ye shall wax old as a garment, and a moth shall devour you.
Aia hoi e kokua mai no o Iehova ka Haku ia'u; Owai hoi ka mea nana e hoahewa mai ia'u? Aia hoi, e lilo no lakou a pau i mea kahiko, me he lole la, E ai no ka mu ia lakou.
10 Who is among you that fears the Lord? let him hearken to the voice of his servant: ye that walk in darkness, and have no light, trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon God.
Owai la ka mea iwaena o oukou i makau aku ia Iehova, E hoolohe ana hoi i ka leo o kana kauwa, Ka mea e hele ana ma ka pouli, aole ona malamalama? E hilinai aku oia ma ka inoa o Iehova, A e hoomaha hoi ma kona Akua.
11 Behold, ye all kindle a fire, and feed a flame: walk in the light of your fire, and in the flame which ye have kindled. This has happened to you for my sake; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
Aia hoi, o oukou a pau, ka poe hoa i ke ahi, Ka poe i kakoo ia oukou iho i na lamaku; E hele oukou ma ka malamalama o ko oukou ahi, A me na lamaku a oukou i kuni ai. E loaa no keia ia oukou ma kuu lima, E moe ana no oukou ilalo iloko o ka eha.
