Isaiah 9
1 At the first time the land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephtali was lightly touched: and at the last the way of the sea beyond the Jordan of the Galilee of the Gentiles was heavily loaded.
I ka wa i hoowahawahaia'i ka aina o Zebuluna, a me ka aina o Napetali, A mahope iho, hoonani oia i kahi maikai, Ma kela aoao o Ioredane, o Galilaia no na kanaka e.
2 The people that walked in darkness, have seen a great light: to them that dwelt in the region of the shadow of death, light is risen.
O na kanaka i hele ma ka pouli, E ike auanei lakou i ka malamalama nui; O ka poe i noho ma ka aina o ke aka o ka make, E alohi mai auanei ka malamalama maluna o lakou.
3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, and hast not increased the joy. They shall rejoice before thee, as they that rejoice in the harvest, as conquerors rejoice after taking a prey, when they divide the spoils.
Ua hoonui oe i ka lahuikanaka, Ua hoomahuahua oe i ko lakou olioli; Ke olioli nei lakou imua ou, E like me ka olioli ana i ka hooiliili ai ana, E like hoi me ka hauoli ana o ka poe puunauwe i ka waiwai pio.
4 For the yoke of their burden, and the rod of their shoulder, and the sceptre of their oppressor thou best overcome, as in the day of Median.
No ka mea, o kona auamo kaumaha, O ka laau i hahau i kona kua, A me ke kookoo o ka mea hookaumaha ia ia, Ua haki oe ia mau mea me ia i ka la o Midiana.
5 For every violent taking of spoils, with tumult, and garment mingled with blood, shall be burnt, and be fuel for the fire.
No ka mea, o na palewawae a pau o ka mea i kahikoia i ka palewawae e wawalo ana, A me na aahu i opeope pu ia me ke koko, E lilo no ia mau mea i mea e puhiia, I wahie hoi no ke ahi.
6 For a CHILD IS BORN to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of Peace.
No ka mea, ua hanauia mai, he keiki no kakou, No kakou i haawiia mai ai, he keikikane, Maluna o kona poohiwi ke aupuni; A e kapaia kona inoa, o Kupaianaha, O Kakaolelo, o Keakuamana, O Kamakuamauloa, o Kealiiokamalu.
7 His empire shall be multiplied, and there shall be no end of peace: he shall sit upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom; to establish it and strengthen it with judgment and with justice, from henceforth and for ever: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
Aole e pau ka mahuahua ana o kona aupuni, a me ka malu; Ma ka nohoalii o Davida ia, A ma kona aupuni no hoi, E hoala hou ia mea, a e hookupaa ia ia, Me ka hooponopono, a me ka maikai, Mai keia wa aku, a i ke ao pau ole. Na ka ikaika o Iehova o na kaua e hana i keia.
8 The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
Ka olelo a ka Haku i hoouna aku ai no Iakoba, A haule hoi ia maluna o ka Iseraela.
9 And all the people of Ephraim shall know, and the inhabitants of Samaria that say in the pride and haughtiness of their heart:
E ike auanei na kanaka a pau o Eperaima, A me ka poe noho ma Samaria, Ka poe i olelo me ka hookiekie, a me ka hookano o ka naau,
10 The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with square stones: they have cut down the sycamores, but we will change them for cedars.
Ua hiolo na pohaka lepo, A na makou e kukulu, he pohaka i kalaiia; Ua kuaia ilalo na laau sukomorea, A na makou no e kanu i na laau kedera.
11 And the Lord shall set up the enemies of Rasin over him, and shall bring on his enemies in a crowd:
Na Iehova no e hoala mai i na enemi o Rezina, e ku e ia ia, E paipai oia i kona poe enemi:
12 The Syrians from the east, and the Philistines from the west: and they shall devour Israel with open mouth, For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
O na Suria ma ka hikina, a ma ke komohana hoi o na Pilisetia, A e hoopaa no i ka Iseraela me ka waha hamama: Aole nae i huli aka kona huhu no keia mau mea a pau, Ke o mai nei no oia i kona lima i keia manawa.
13 And the people are not returned to him who hath struck them, and have not sought after the Lord of hosts.
Aole nae i hoi hou na kanaka, I ka mea nana lakou i hahau, Aole lakou i imi ia Iehova o na kaua.
14 And the Lord shall destroy out of Israel the head and the tail, him that bendeth down, and him that holdeth back, in one day.
Nolaila e oki ai o Iehova, mai ka Iseraela aku, I ke poo, a me ka huelo, I ka lala pama, a me ke naku, ma ka la hookahi.
15 The aged and honourable, he is the head: and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.
O ka lunakahiko a me ka mea koikoi, oia ke poo, O ke kaula i ao mai i ka wahahee, oia ka huelo.
16 And they that call this people blessed, shall cause them to err: and they that are called blessed, shall be thrown down headlong.
O na alakai o keia poe kanaka, he poe alakai hewa lakou; A o ka poe i alakai hewa ia, e lukuia no lakou.
17 Therefore the Lord shell have no joy in their young men: neither shall he have mercy on their fatherless, and widows: for every one is a hypocrite and wicked, and every mouth hath spoken folly. For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his bend is stretched out still.
Nolaila, aole olioli ka Haku maluna o ko lakou poe ui. Aole hoi ia e aloha i na keiki makua ole o lakou, A me ko lakou wahinekanemake; No ka mea, ua haumia lakou a pau, a ua hewa, Olelo no na waha a pau ma ka lapawale. Aole nae i hali aku kona huhu no keia maa mea a pau, Aka, ke o mai nei no kona lima i keia manawa.
18 For wickedness is kindled as a fire, it shall devour the brier and the thorn: and shall kindle in the thicket of the forest, and it shall be wrapped up in smoke ascending on high.
No ka mea, e a ana ka hewa e like me ke ahi, E hoopaa no ia i ka nahele ooi, a me ka laau kalakala, A e a no hoi ia maloko o ka ululaau paapu; A e punohn iluna, he punohu u wahi.
19 By the wrath of the Lord of hosts the land is troubled, and the people shall be as fuel for the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
Ua hoaia ka aina, no ka ukiuki o Iehova o na kaua, A ua lilo hoi na kanaka i wahie no ke ahi; Aohe kanaka i aloha i kona hoa.
20 And he shall turn to the right hand, and shall be hungry: and shall eat on the left hand, and shall not be filled: every one shell eat the flesh of his own arm: Manasses Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasses, and they together shall be against Juda.
E ai no ia ma ka lima akau, a e pololi nae, E ai no hoi ia ma ka lima hema, aole nae e maona; E ai no ke kanaka i ka io o kona lima iho.
21 After all these things his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
O Manase ia Eperaima, a o Eperaima hoi ia Manase, A e hui no hoi laua e ku e ia Iuda; Aole nae i huli aku kona huhu no keia mau mea a pau, Aka, ke o mai nei no kona lima i keia manawa.
