Isaiah 28
1 Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower the glory of his joy, who were on the head of the fat valley, staggering with wine.
A UWE ka lei hookiekie o na mea ona ma Eperaima, Ka pua mae wale o kona nani maikai, Ka mea ma ko poo o ka papu momona, O na mea i ona i ka waina!
2 Behold the Lord is mighty and strong, as a storm of hail: a destroying whirlwind, as the violence of many waters overflowing, and sent forth upon a spacious land.
Aia hoi, ka mea ikaika, ka mea i hooikaikaia e ka Haku, Nana no e hoohiolo ia lakou ilalo i ka lepo me kona lima, E like me ka huahekili e haule ana, E like hoi me ka ino nui e make ai, A me ka wai kahe he nui e holo moku ana.
3 The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under feet.
Malalo o na wawae e hahiia'i Na lei hookiekie o na mea ona ma Eperaima.
4 And the fading flower the glory of his joy, who is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as a hasty fruit before the ripeness of autumn: which when he that seeth it shall behold, as soon as he taketh it in his hand, he will eat it up.
Ka pua mae wale o kona nani maikai, Ka mea ma ke poo o ka papu momona, E like auanei ia me ka hua mua o ke kau, O ka mea nana aku a ike ia mea, Moni koke no ia i ka loaa ana i kona lima.
5 In that day the Lord of hosts shall be a crown of glory, and a garland of joy to the residue of his people:
A hiki aku i kela la, E lilo no o Iehova i lei alii maikai, A i papale alii nani, no ka poe i koe o kona poe kanaka,
6 And a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and strength to them that return out of the battle to the gate.
A i uhane hooponopono maloko o ka poe hooponopono, A i ikaika hoi iloko o ka poe i hoohuli i ke kaua ana i ka pukapa.
7 But these also have been ignorant through wine, and through drunkenness have erred: the priest and the prophet have been ignorant through drunkenness, they are swallowed up with wine, they have gone astray in drunkenness, they have not known him that seeth, they have been ignorant of judgment.
Ua kunewanewa lakou nei, no ka waina, Ua hikaka lakou no ka inu awaawa, Ua kunewanewa ke kahunapule, a me ke kaula no ka inu awaawa, Ua oki loa lakou i ka waina, Ua hikaka lakou no ka inu awaawa, Ua kunewanewa lakou ma ka hihio, Ua kulanalana ko lakou hooponopono ana.
8 For all tables were full of vomit and filth, so that there was no more place.
No ka mea, ua paapu na papaaina a pau i ka luai, I ka paumaele hoi, aohe wahi kaawale.
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand the hearing? them that are weaned from the milk, that are drawn away from the breasts.
Ia wai la ia e ao mai ai i ka ike? E hoike mai oia i ka naauao ia wai? I ka poe anei i ukuhiia i ka waiu? I ka poe anei i auaia i ka u?
10 For command, command again; command, command again; expect, expect again; expect, expect again: a little there, a little there.
No ka mea, he rula maluna o ka rula, He rula maluna o ka rula; He loina maluna o ka loina, He loina maluna o ka loina; He uuku ma keia wahi. He uuku ma kela wahi.
11 For with the speech of lips, and with another tongue he will speak to this people.
He oiaio no me ka lehelehe namu a me ka olelo o ka malihini, E olelo mai ai oia i keia poe kanaka.
12 To whom he said: This is my rest, refresh the weary, and this is my refreshing: and they would not hear.
Ia ia i olelo aku ai ia lakou, Eia ka maha e hoomaha oukou i ka poe maloeloe, Eia ka hooluolu; aole nae lakou i hoolohe.
13 And the word of the Lord shall be to them: Command, command again; command, command again: expect, expect again; expect, expect again: a little there, a little there: that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Nolaila i hiki ai ka olelo a Iehova ia lakou, He rula maluna o ka rula, He rula maluna o ka rula; He loina maluna o ka loina, He loina maluna o ka loina; He uuku ma keia wahi, He uuku ma kela wahi; I hele ai lakou a hina ihope, a lukuia, I hoopaheleia hoi, a paa.
14 Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, who rule over my people that is in Jerusalem.
Nolaila, e hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e na kanaka hoowahawaha, Ka poe e noho alii ana maluna o keia poe kanaka ma Ierusalema.
15 For you have said: We have entered into a league with death, and we have made a covenant with hell. When the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come upon us: for we have placed our hope in lies, and by falsehood we are protected. (Sheol h7585)
No ka mea, ua olelo oukou, Ua hana makou i berita me ka make, Ua hookuikahi makou me ko ka po; A hiki mai ka hahau ana a mahuahua, Aole ia e hiki mai io makou nei; No ia mea, ua hoolilo makou i ka wahahee i puuhonua no makou, Ua huna makou ia makou iho iloko o ka hoopunipuni. (Sheol h7585)
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will lay a stone in the foundations of Sion, a tried stone, a corner stone, a precious stone, founded in the foundation. He that believeth, let him not hasten.
No ia mea, peneia ka olelo ana mai a ka Haku, a Iehova, Aia hoi, ke hoonoho nei au ma Ziona, He pohaku, he pohaku i hoaoia, He pohaku kihi, ua maikai, He poliaku kumu i hoonoho paa ia: O ka mea i hilinai aku ia ia, aole ia e hee.
17 And I will set judgment in weight, and justice in measure: and hail shall overturn the hope of falsehood: and waters shall overflow its protection.
E hoopai pololei aku au ma ke kaula, A e hooponopono aku au ma ka hoailona kupono; A na ka huahekili e hoopau aku i ka puuhonua wahahee, A e halanaia i ka wai, kahi e pee aku ai.
18 And Sour league with death shall be abolished, and your covenant with hell shall not stand: when the overflowing scourge shall pass, you shall be trodden down by it. (Sheol h7585)
E hoopauia auanei ko oukou berita me ka make, Aole e kupaa ka oukou kuikahi ana me ka po; I ka wa e hiki mai ai ka hahau ana a mahuahua, E hahiia oukou ilalo e ia. (Sheol h7585)
19 Whensoever it shall pass through, it shall take you away: because in the morning early it shall pass through, in the day and in the night, and vexation alone shall make you understand what you hear.
I ka wa e puka mai ai ia, e hoopaa mai no ia ia oukou; He oiaio no e hiki mai ia i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, A i ke ao no hoi a me ka po; A e lilo no ka lohe wale i mea e makau ai.
20 For the bed is straitened, so that one must fall out, and a short covering cannot cover both.
No ka mea, ua pokole kahi moe, aole hiki ke hoomoe loa malaila; Ua ololi kahi kapa moe, aole hiki ke uhi ia ia iho.
21 For the Lord shall stand up as in the mountain of divisions: he shall be angry as in the valley which is in Gabaon: that he may do his work, his strange work: that he may perform his work, his work is strange to him.
No ka mea, e like me ia ma ka mauna o Perazima, Pela no e ala mai ai o Iehova; E like me ia ma ke kahawai o Gibeona, Pela no ia e huhu mai ai, I hana'i oia i kana hana, i kana hana kupanaha hoi; I hoopaa hoi oia i kana hana, kana hana ano e.
22 And now do not mock, lest your bonds be tied strait. For I have heard of the Lord the God of hosts a consumption and a cutting short upon all the earth.
Ano hoi, mai hoowahawaha oukou, O hoopaa loa ia ko oukou mau kupee; No ka mea, ua lohe au i ka hoopau ana, i hooholoia, Na ka Haku na Iehova o na kaua, i ka aina a pau.
23 Give ear, and hear my voice, hearken, and hear my speech.
E haliu mai oukou, a e hoolohe i ko'u leo, E haliu mai oukou, a e hoolohe i ka'u olelo ana.
24 Shall the ploughman plough all the day to sow, shall he open and harrow his ground?
O ka mea hana me ka oopalau, E hana anei ia i na la a pau e kanu ai? E wawahi ana, a e kuikui ana ia i puupuu lepo o kona aina?
25 Will he not, when he hath made plain the surface thereof, sow gith, and scatter cummin, and put wheat in order, and barley, and millet, and vetches in their bounds?
A hana aku oia i ka lepo a maniania, Aole anei ia i lulu iho i ke kumino eleele, A kanu no hoi i ke kumino? A lulu i ka hua palaoa maikai, A me ka bale, a me ka palaoa eleele, Ma kona wahi iho?
26 For he will instruct him in judgment: his God will teach him.
Ao mai no kona Akua ia ia ma ka hooponopono, A hoike mai no hoi ia ia.
27 For gith shall not be thrashed with saws, neither shall the cart wheel turn about upon cummin: but gith shall be beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a staff.
Aole i kuiia ke kumino eleele i ka mea kui, Aole i hookaaia ka mea kaa maluna o ke kumino; Aka, ua kuiia ke kumino eleele i ka laau, A me ke kumino hoi i ka laau kui.
28 But bread corn shall be broken small: but the thrasher shall not thrash it for ever, neither shall the cart wheel hurt it, nor break it with its teeth.
Kuiia no ka palaoa a wali, No ka mea, aole makemake ia i ka hahi loihi ana, Aole hoi e hookaa aku i ke kaa o kona kaa, Aole hoi e hahi aku na lio ona ia mea.
29 This also is come forth from the Lord God of hosts, to make his counsel wonderful, and magnify justice.
I puka mai no keia mai o Iehova o na kaua mai, Ka mea kupanaha ma ka noonoo ana, A nui loa no hoi kona ike.
