Micah 2
1 Woe to you who devise useless things and who work evil in your beds. In the morning light, they undertake it, because their hand is against God.
A UWE ka poe e noonoo ana i ka ino, a e imi aua i ka hewa, maluna o ko lakou wahi moe! I ka malamalama o ke ao, hana lakou ia mea, no ka mea, ma ka ikaika o ko lakou lima e hiki ai ia.
2 And they have desired fields and have taken them by violence, and they have stolen houses. And they have made false accusations against a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.
A kuko aku lakou i na mahinaai, i kaili wale, a me na hale, a lawe hoi ia mau mea: A alunu lakou i ka ke kanaka, a me kona hale, i ka ke kanaka a me kona aina hooili.
3 For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I devise an evil against this family, from which you will not steal away your necks. And you will not walk in arrogance, because this is a most wicked time.
No ia mea, peneia i olelo mai ai o Iehova; Aia hoi, ke manao nei au i ka hewa no keia ohana, Aole oukou e hiki ke hoonee aku i ko oukou mau a-i mai ia mea aku; Aole hoi oukou e hele hookiekie, no ka mea, he manawa ino keia.
4 In that day, a parable will be taken up about you, and a song will be sung with sweetness, saying: “We have been devastated by depopulation.” The fate of my people has been altered. How can he withdraw from me, when he might be turned back, he who might tear apart our country?
Ia la e lawe kekahi i mele no oukou, A e kanikau i ke kanikau nui, i ka i ana ae, I ka luku ana ua lukuia kakou; Ua hoololiia ka hooilina o kuu poe kanaka; Nani ka laweia'ku ia mai o'u la! A no ka mea hoihoi, ua puunaueia ko kakou mau mahinaai;
5 Because of this, there will be for you no casting of the cord of fate in the assembly of the Lord.
Nolaila, aohe ou mea nana e hoolei ke kaula ma ka hailona, iloko o ka ahakanaka o Iehova.
6 Do not speak by saying, “It will not drop on these ones; shame will not embrace them.”
Mai hai aku i ka wanana; aole lakou e wanana ia lakou, aole e lawe i ka hilahila.
7 The house of Jacob says, “Has the Spirit of the Lord been weakened, or are such things his thoughts?” Are not my words good for him who walks uprightly?
E ka mea i kapaia o ka hale o Iakoba, ua pauaho anei ka uhane o Iehova? O keia anei kana mau hana? aole anei he maikai ka'u mau olelo i ka mea e hele pono ana?
8 But, to the contrary, my people have risen up in opposition. You have lifted the cover from the undergarment, and those who passed by harmlessly, you have converted into war.
Ano iho nei ua ku e mai kuu poe kanaka me he enemi la: Ke kaili nei oukou i ka aahu, a me ka lole komo o ka poe e hele maluhia ana, me he poe la e hoi ana, mai ke kaua mai.
9 You have evicted the women among my people from their delicate houses. You have taken my praise forever from their little ones.
Ua hookuke aku oukou i na wahine o kuu poe kanaka, mai ko lakou hale maikai aku; Ua lawe loa aku oukou i kuu nani mai ka lakou poe keiki aku.
10 Rise and depart, for there is no relief for you here. Because of its uncleanness, it will be corrupted with a most wicked decay.
E ku mai oukou, a hele aku, no ka mea, aohe keia ko oukou wahi maha; No ka mea, ua haumia ia, e luku aku ia ia oukou me ka luku nui.
11 I wish that I were not a man who has breath, and that I rather spoke a lie. I will drop it down to you in wine and in drunkenness. And it will be this people on whom it will rain down.
Ina e hele ke kanaka ma ka makani, a ma ka hoopunipuni, a wahahee oia, i ka i ana ae, E wanana aku au ia oe no ka waina, a me ka mea inu awaawa; Oia no ke kaula o keia poe kanaka.
12 I will gather together in a congregation all of you, Jacob. I will lead together as one, the remnant of Israel. I will set them together like a flock in the fold, like a sheep in the midst of the sheep pen. They will cause a tumult before the multitude of men.
E hoakoakoa io ana au i kau a pau, e Iakoba; E houluulu io ana au i ke koena o ka Iseraela: E hui pu aku au ia lakou e like me na hipa a Bozera, E like me ka poe hipa iwaenakonu o ko lakou pahipa; E pioloke nui lakou no ka nui o na kanaka.
13 For he will ascend, opening the way before them. They will separate, and they will cross the gate and enter through it. And their king will pass by, before their very eyes, and the Lord will be at their head.
Ua pii ae ka mea wawahi imua o lakou; Ua wawahi iho lakou, a ua komo lakou ma ka pukapa, a ua hele aku malaila; A e hele ko lakou alii imua o lakou, o Iehova ma ko lakou poo.
