Isaiah 42
1 Behold my servant, I will uphold him, my elect, with him my soul is well-pleased. I have sent my Spirit upon him. He will offer judgment to the nations.
A IA hoi ka'u kauwa, ka mea a'u i malama'i, O kuu mea i waeia, a ua olioli ko'u naau ia ia; E haawi aku no au i ko'u Uhane maluna ona; A nana no e hoolaha ae ka pono no na lahuikanaka.
2 He will not cry out, and he will not show favoritism to anyone; neither will his voice be heard abroad.
Aole ia e kahea, aole hoi e hoowalaau aku, Aole hana aku a loheia kona leo ma ke alanui.
3 The bruised reed he will not break, and the smoldering wick he will not extinguish. He will lead forth judgment unto truth.
Aole ia e uhai i ka ohe pepe, Aole hoi ia e kinai i ka uiki e pipi ana; A hoolaha aku oia i ka pono oiaio.
4 He will not be saddened or troubled, until he establishes judgment on earth. And the islands will await his law.
Aole ia e pio, aole hoi ia e uhaiia, A hookumu oia i ka pono ma ka honua nei: A e kakali no na mokupuni i kona kanawai.
5 Thus says the Lord God, who created the heavens and expanded it, who formed the earth and all that springs from it, who gives breath to the people in it, and spirit to those walking on it.
Ke i mai nei ke Akua, o Iehova, penei, Ka mea nana i hana na lani, a hohola ae la ia lakou; Ka mea i hoopalahalaha ae i ka honua, a me kona mau mea ulu; Ka mea haawi i ka hanu no na kanaka maluna ona, A me ke ea hoi i ka poe e hele ana maluna ona:
6 I, the Lord, have called you in justice, and I have taken your hand and preserved you. And I have presented you as a covenant of the people, as a light to the Gentiles,
Owau, o Iehova, ua hea aku au ia oe i mea e pono ai, A na'u no e hoopaa aku i kou lima, a e malama no hoi au ia oe, A e haawi no wau ia oe i berita no na kanaka, I malamalama hoi no ko na aina e;
7 so that you may open the eyes of the blind, and lead out the prisoner from confinement and those sitting in darkness from the house of incarceration.
E hookaakaa i na maka o ka poe makapo, E lawe mai hoi i ka poe pio, mailoko mai o kahi paa, A me ka poe e noho ana iloko o ka pouli, mailoko mai o ka halepaahao.
8 I am the Lord; this is my name. I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to graven things.
Owau no Iehova, oia ko'u inoa; Aole au e haawi i ko'u nani ia hai, Aole hoi ko'u hanohano i na kiikalaiia.
9 The things that were first, behold, they have arrived. And I also announce what is new. Before these things arise, I will cause you to hear about them.
Aia hoi, ua ko na mea i olelo kahiko ia, A ke hai aku nei au i na mea hou: Mamua o ko lakou hiki ana mai, ke hai aku nei au ia mau mea ia oukou.
10 Sing to the Lord a new canticle, sing his praise from the ends of the earth, you who descend into the sea and all its fullness, the islands and their inhabitants.
E oli aku ia Iehova i ke oli hou, I kona nani hoi mai ka welau mai o ka honua: Ka poe iho ilalo ma ka moana, a me kona mea i piha'i, O na mokupuni, a me ko lakou poe e noho ana.
11 Let the desert and its cities be lifted up. Kedar will dwell in houses. O inhabitants of the rock, give praise! They will cry out from the top of the mountains.
E hookiekie no ka waonahele i kona leo, A me na kulanakauhale ona, O na kauhale kahi e noho ai o Kedara; E oli hoi ka poe e noho ana ma Sela, E hooho hoi ka poe ma ka piko o na kuahiwi.
12 They will give glory to the Lord, and they will announce his praise to the islands.
E haawi aku lakou i ka hanohano no Iehova, E hoolaha hoi i kona nani ma na aina e.
13 The Lord will go forth like a strong man; like a man of battle, he will stir up zeal. He will shout and cry out. He will prevail against his enemies.
E puka aku no o Iehova iwaho, me he koa la, E hoa no oia i ka inaina, e like me ke kanaka kaua; E hea ikaika aku no ia, a e hooho hoi; E lanakila no oia maluna o kona poe enemi.
14 I have always been quiet; I have been silent; I have been patient. I will speak like a woman giving birth. I will destroy and consume, all at once.
Ua noho ekemu ole au, mai kahiko loa mai; Ua noho malie au, ua uumi au i ka olelo: Aka, ano, e kahea aku no wau, e like me ka wahine hanau keiki; E luku aku no au, e hoopau pu no hoi.
15 I will desolate the mountains and the hills, and I will wither all their grass. And I will turn rivers into islands, and I will dry up the pools of water.
E anai aku au i na kuahiwi, a me na puu, A e hoomaloo aku no au i ko lakou launahele a pau; E hoolilo wau i ko lakou muliwai i wahi maloo, A e hoomaloo no hoi au i ko lakou loko.
16 And I will lead the blind along a way which they do not know. And I will cause them to walk along paths with which they were unfamiliar. I will turn darkness into light before them, and crooked into straight. These things I have done for them. For I have not abandoned them.
A e kai aku no au i ka poe makapo, ma ke ala a lakou i ike ole ai: E alakai no au ia lakou ma na kuamoo a lakou i ike ole ai; E hoolilo au i ka pouli i malamalama imua o lakou, A me na ala kekee i pololei. E hana no wau i keia mau mea no lakou, Aole hoi au e haalele ia lakou.
17 They have been converted again. Let those who trust in graven idols be greatly confounded, for they say to a molten thing, “You are our god.”
E hoopalaimaka, a e hilahila loa hoi ka poe a pau i hilinai i na kiikalaiia, Ka poe i olelo i na kii i hooheheeia, O oukou no ko makou mau akua.
18 You who are deaf, hear! You who are blind, turn your gaze and see!
E hoolohe mai oukou, e na kuli, E nana hoi oukou, e ka poe makapo, i ike oukou.
19 Who is blind, except my servant? Who is deaf, except the one to whom I have sent my messengers? Who is blind, except the one who has been sold? And who is blind, except the servant of the Lord?
Owai ka mea makapo, ke ole ka'u kauwa, A kuli hoi, e like me ko'u elele a'u i hoouna aku ai? Owai ka mea makapo, e like me ka mea haipule, Ka mea makapo hoi, e like me ke kauwa a Iehova?
20 You who see many things, will you not keep them? You who have open ears, will you not listen?
Ua ike no oe i na mea he nui, aole nae oe i malama; Ua hakahaka na pepeiao, aole nae oia i lohe.
21 And the Lord was willing to sanctify him, and to magnify the law, and to exalt him.
Ua lealea no o Iehova no kona pono iho, E hoohanohano no oia i kona kanawai, a e hoonani hoi oia ia mea.
22 But this same people has robbed and laid waste. All their youth are a snare, and they have been hidden in houses of confinement. They have become victims; there is no one who may rescue them. They have been plundered; there is no one who may say, “Restore.”
Aka, ua powaia keia poe kanaka, a ua haoia; Ua hoopaheleia lakou a pau maloko o na lua, Ua hunaia hoi maloko o na halepaahao; Ua lilo lakou i pio, aohe mea nana lakou e hoopakele; He mea i haoia, aohe mea i olelo mai, E hoihoi aku.
23 Who is there among you who will hear this, who will listen closely and heed this in the future?
Owai ka mea o oukou e haliu mai i ka pepeiao i keia? A hoolohe, a malama hoi, no ka manawa mahope?
24 Who has handed over Jacob into plunder, and Israel into devastation? Is it not the Lord himself, against whom we have sinned? And they were not willing to walk in his ways, and they have not listened to his law.
Nawai i haawi ia Iakoba i pio, A i ka Iseraela hoi no ka poe powa? Aole anei na Iehova, ka mea a kakou i hana ino aku ai? No ka mea, aole lakou i hele i kona mau alanui, Aole lakou i hoolohe i kona kanawai.
25 And so, he poured out over him the indignation of his fury and a strong battle. And he burned him all around, and he did not realize it. And he set him on fire, and he did not understand it.
Nolaila ia i ninini aku ai maluna ona, i ka wela o kona inaina, A me ka ikaika o ke kaua; A ua hoa oia ia ia i ke ahi a puni, aole nae ia i ike; Wela no oia i ke ahi, aole i manao i kona naau.
