Esias 57
1 See how the just man has perished, and no one lays [it] to heart: and righteous men are taken away, and no one considers: for the righteous has been removed out of the way of injustice.
MAKE no ke kanaka pono, aohe nae kanaka i hoomanao ia mea; Ua laweia'ku la na kanaka lokomaikai, Aole nae kanaka i noonoo, Ua laweia'ku ka mea i pono, mai ke alo aku o ka hewa.
2 His burial shall be in peace: he has been removed out of the way.
E hele aku no oia me ka malu, E hoomaha lakou ma ko lakou wahi moe, O ka mea hoi i hele ma kona pololei.
3 But draw you near hither, you lawless children, the seed of adulterers and the harlot.
E hookokoke mai oukou ianei, e na keiki a ke kilo wahine, Na keiki hoi a ke kane moe kolohe, a me ka wahine hookamakama.
4 Wherein have you been rioting? and against whom have you opened your mouth, and against whom have you loosed your tongue? are you not children of perdition? a lawless seed?
Ia wai oukou e olioli ewaewa ai? A hoohamama oukou i ka waha iawai? A hooloihi ae i ke alelo? Aole anei oukou he poe keiki na ka poe hewa? A he hanauna hoi na ka wahahee?
5 who call upon idols under the leafy trees, slaying your children in the valleys amongst the rocks?
A ua wela hoi i na'kuakii malalo o na laau uliuli a pau, A ua luku aku hoi i na keiki ma na awawa, A malalo hoi ma na ana o na pohaku?
6 That is your portion, this is your lot: and to them have you poured forth drink-offerings, and to these have you offered meat-offerings. Shall I not therefore be angry for these things?
Aia no kou kuleana, ma na pohaku olohelohe o ke awawa, O lakou, o lakou no kou lihi. Oia, ua ninini aku oe i ka mohaiinu no lakou; Ua kaumaha aku no hoi i ka mohai ai. E olioli anei au i keia mau mea?
7 On a lofty and high mountain, there is your bed, and there you carried up your meat-offerings:
Maluna o ka mauna kiekie, malaila no oe i kaikai ai i kou wahi moe, Malaila no oe i pii aku ai, e kaumaha aku i ka mohai.
8 and behind the posts of your door you did place your memorials. Did you think that if you should depart from me, you would gain? you have loved those that lay with you;
Mahope o na puka, a me na lapauwila, Ua kukulu oe i kou mea e hoomanao ai; No ka mea, ua hoike aku oe ia oe iho i ka mea e, aole ia'u, A ua pii aku hoi, a ua hoakea oe i kou wahi moe, A ua hana oe i mea ike nou me lakou; Makemake no oe i ko lakou wahi moe, ua hoomakaukau oe i wahi nona.
9 and you have multiplied your whoredom with them, and you have increased the number of them that are far from you, and have sent ambassadors beyond your borders, and have been debased even to hell. (Sheol h7585)
Hele aku no oe i ke alii me ka aila ala, A ua hoomahuahua oe i kou mau mea manoi, A ua hoouna aku oe i kou poe elele i kahi loihi, A ua hoopoho no oe ia oe iho, a lilo i ka po. (Sheol h7585)
10 You has wearied yourself with your many ways; yet you said not, I will cease to strengthen myself: for you has done these things; therefore you has not supplicated me.
I ka loihi o kou hele ana, ua maloeloe oe, Aole nae oe i olelo, ua make hewa; Ua loaa ia oe ke ola ana o kou lima, Nolaila, aole oe i paupauaho.
11 Through dread of whom have you feared, and lied against me, and has not remembered, nor considered me, nor regarded me, yes, though when I see you I pass you by, yet you has not feared me.
Ua hopohopo oe ia wai, a makau hoi, I wahahee ai oe, aole hoi i hoomanao mai ia'u, Aole hoi i aloha mai ma kou naau? Aole anei au i noho ekemu ole, mai ka wa kahiko loa mai, A makau ole hoi oe ia'u?
12 And I will declare your righteousness, and your sins, which shall not profit you.
E hai aku no au i kou pono, a me kau mau hana, Aole oe e pomaikai ia mau mea.
13 When you cry out, let them deliver you in your affliction: for all these the wind shall take, and the tempest shall carry [them] away: but they that cleave to me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.
Ia oe e kahea aku ai, na kou poe oe e hoopakele; E kaikai aku no ka makani ia lakou a pau; Na ka onini lakou e lawe aku; Aka, o ka mea hilinai mai ia'u, nana no e noho i ka aina, A e ili mai no ko'u mauna hoano ia ia.
14 And they shall say, Clear the ways before him, and take up the stumbling blocks out of the way of my people.
Olelo iho la ia, E hoouka i ke ala, e hoouka i ke ala. E koomakaukau i ke kuamoo, E kaikai aku i na mea e hina'i, mai ke ala aku o ko'u poe kanaka.
15 Thus says the Most High, who dwells on high for ever, Holy in the holies, is his name, the Most High resting in the holies, and giving patience to the faint-hearted, and giving life to the broken-hearted:
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a ka Mea i hapaiia, Ka Mea i hookiekie hoi, e noho ana ma ke ao pau ole, O Hemolele kona inoa; E noho no au ma kahi kiekie, a hemolele hoi, Me ka mea hoi i mihi, a haahaa hoi ka uhane, E hoomaha i ka uhane o ka mea haahaa, A e hoomaha hoi i ka naau o ka poe mihi.
16 I will not take vengeance on you for ever, neither will I be always angry with you: for my Spirit shall go forth from me, and I have created all breath.
No ka mea, aole au e paio mau loa, Aole hoi au e huhu aku i na manawa a pau; O maule imua o'u ka naau, A me na uhane a'u i hana'i.
17 On account of sin for a little while I grieved him, and struck him, and turned away my face from him; and he was grieved, and he went on sorrowful in his ways.
No ka hewa o kona alunu i huhu aku ai au, a hahau aku la ia ia; Huna no wau i ko'u maka, a huhu aku no; Aka, hele no oia ma ke kolohe, ma ka aoao no o kona naau.
18 I have seen his ways, and healed him, and comforted him, and given him true comfort;
Ua ike no au i kona mau aoao, a e hoola aku no au ia ia; A e alakai no hoi au ia ia, A e hoihoi aku i ka maha ia ia, a i kona poe kumakena no hoi.
19 peace upon peace to them that are far off, and to them that are near: and the Lord has said, I will heal them.
Na'u no e hana i ka hua o na lehelehe; Ua malu, ua malu ka mea mamao aku, a me ka mea kokoke mai, Wahi a Iehova, a na'u no ia e hoola aku.
20 But the unrighteous shall be tossed as troubled waves, and shall not be able to rest.
Ua like ka poe hewa me ke kai kupikipikio, A hiki ole ke lana malie, a ua hooleilei na wai ona i ka wai eka, a me ka lepo.
21 There is no joy to the ungodly, said God.
Aohe malu no ka poe hewa, wahi a ke Akua o'u.
