< Isaiah 35 >
1 The desolate and impassable land will rejoice, and the place of solitude will exult, and it will flourish like the lily.
E OLIOLI auanei ka waonahele, a me kahi maloo no ia mau mea; E hauoli hoi ka waoakua, a e pua mai hoi, e like me ka lilia.
2 It will spring up and blossom, and it will exult with rejoicing and praising. The glory of Lebanon has been given to it, with the beauty of Carmel and Sharon. These will see the glory of the Lord and the beauty of our God.
E pua nui no ia, a e hauoli hoi me ka olioli, a me ka hauoli; E haawiia'ku ka nani o Lebanona ia ia, A me ka maikai o Karemela, a me Sarona; E ike auanei lakou i ka nani o Iehova, A me ka hanohano o ko kakou Akua.
3 Strengthen the lax hands, and confirm the weak knees!
E hooikaika oukou i na lima nawaliwali, A e hookupaa i na kuli kulanalana.
4 Say to the fainthearted: “Take courage and fear not! Behold, your God will bring the vindication of retribution. God himself will arrive to save you.”
E olelo aku oukou i ka poe makau o ka naau, I nui ka ikaika, mai makau oukou; Aia hoi ko oukou Akua! E hele mai no ia e hoopai, o ke Akua hoi me ka hoouku; E hele mai no oia, a e hoola ia oukou.
5 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be cleared.
Alaila, e hookaakaaia na maka o ka poe makapo, A e hoohakahakaia na pepeiao o ka poe kuli.
6 Then the disabled will leap like a buck, and the tongue of the mute will be untied. For the waters have burst forth in the desert, and torrents in solitary places.
Alaila, e lelele no ka oopa me he dia la, A e oli hoi ke alelo o ka leo paa: No ka mea, e puka mai no ka wai ma ka waonahele, A me na muliwai hoi ma ka waoakua.
7 And the land that was dry will have a pond, and the thirsty land will have fountains of water. In the hollows where the serpents lived before, there will rise up the greenery of reed and bulrush.
E lilo no ka lepo olinolino i waiauau, A me kahi maloo, i waipuna; Ma ka hale o ka ilio hihiu, kahi ana i moe ai, He wahi ia no ka ohe, a me ke kome.
8 And there shall be a path and a road in that place. And it will be called the Holy Way. The defiled will not pass through it. For this will be an upright path for you, so much so that the foolish will not wander along it.
A malaila no ke kuamoo, he alanui hoi, A e kapaia no ia, Ke alanui o ka pono. Aole hele malaila ka mea haumia; E hele pu no oia me lakou ma ke ala, Aole lalau ka poe naaupo malaila.
9 There will be no lions in that place, and harmful wild animals will neither climb up to it, nor be found there. Only those who have been freed will walk in that place.
Aole liona ma ia wahi, Aole pii aku malaila kekahi holoholona hae, Aole e loaa ia ma ia wahi; Aka, malaila no e hele ai ka poe i hoolapanaiia.
10 And the redeemed of the Lord will be converted, and they will return to Zion with praising. And everlasting joy will be upon their heads. They will obtain gladness and rejoicing. For pain and sorrow will flee away.
A e hoi mai no ko Iehova poe i kuai hoolaia, E hele mai no lakou i Ziona me ke oli, A me ka hauoli mau maluna o ko lakou mau poo; E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli, a me ka hauoli, A e auhee aku no ke kaumaha, a me ke kaniuhu.
