< Micah 6 >

1 Hear ye what the Lord saith: Arise, contend thou in judgment against the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
E HOOLOHE mai oukou ano i ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai; E ku iluna, e hakaka imua o na mauna, A e hoolohe na puu i kou leo.
2 Let the mountains hear the judgment of the Lord, and the strong foundations of the earth: for the Lord will enter into judgment with his people, and he will plead against Israel.
A hoolohe oukou, e na mauna i ka hoopaapaa o Iehova, A me oukou na kumu paa o ka honua: No ka mea, he hoopaapaa ko Iehova me kona poe kanaka, A e hoopaapaa no ia me ka Iseraela.
3 O my people, what have I done to thee, or in what have I molested thee? answer thou me.
E kuu poe kanaka, heaha ka'u i hana aku ai ia oe? Heaha ka'u i hooluhi ai ia oe? e hoike mai ia'u.
4 For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and delivered thee out of the house of slaves: and I sent before thy face Moses, and Aaron, and Mary.
No ka mea, ua lawe mai au ia oe mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, A ua hoola au ia oe mai ka hale o na kauwa mai; A ua hoouna aku au imua ou ia Mose, ia Aarona, a me Miriama.
5 O my people, remember, I pray thee, what Balach the king of Moab purposed: and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him, from Setim to Galgal, that thou mightest know the justices of the Lord.
E kuu poe kanaka, e hoomanao ano i ka mea a Balaka, ke alii o Moaba, i noonoo ai, A i ka mea hoi a Balaama ke keiki a Beora i olelo mai ai ia ia, mai Sitima mai a Gilegala; I ike oukou i ka pono o Iehova.
6 What shall I offer to the Lord that is worthy? wherewith shall I kneel before the high God? shall I offer holocausts unto him, and calves of a year old?
Me ke aha la wau e hele aku ai imua o Iehova, A kulou iho imua o ke Akua kiekie? E hele anei au imua ona me na mohai kuni, Me na keiki bipi o ka makahiki hookahi?
7 May the Lord be appeased with thousands of rams, or with many thousands of fat he goats? shall I give my firstborn for my wickedness, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
E oluolu anei o Iehova i na tausani hipa kane? A me ka umi tausani muliwai aila? E haawi anei au i kuu makahiapo no kuu hala, I ka hua o kuu kino no ka hewa o ko'u uhane.
8 I will shew thee, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requireth of thee: Verily, to do judgment, and to love mercy, and to walk solicitous with thy God.
Ua hoike mai no ia ia oe, e ke kanaka, i ka mea maikai; A he aha ka mea a ke Akua i kauoha mai ai ia oe, Ke ole e hana i ka pono, a e aloha i ka lokomaikai, A e hoohaahaa i ka hele ana me ke Akua?
9 The voice of the Lord crieth to the city, and salvation shall be to them that fear thy name: hear, O ye tribes, and who shall approve it?
Ke kahea mai nei ka leo o Iehova i ke kulanakauhale, A o ka mea naauao e ike i kou inoa; E hoolohe oukou i ka hoopai aua, a me ka mea nana ia i hoike mai.
10 As yet there is a fire in the house of the wicked, the treasures of iniquity, and a scant measure full of wrath.
Aole anei, i keia wa, na waiwai hewa ma ka hale o ka poe hewa, A me ka epa uuku e hoowahawahaia?
11 Shall I justify wicked balances, and the deceitful weights of the bag?
E maemae anei au me na mea kaupaona hewa, A me ka aa paona hoopunipuni?
12 By which her rich men were filled with iniquity, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue was deceitful in their mouth.
No ka mea, ua piha kona poe kanaka waiwai i ka hana ino, A ua olelo wahahee kona poe kanaka, A ua hoopunipuni ko lakou alelo ma ko lakou waha.
13 And I therefore began to strike thee with desolation for thy sins.
No ia hoi, e hoonawaliwali au ia oe, ma ka hahau ana ia oe, Ma ka hooneoneo ana ia oe no kou hewa.
14 Thou shalt eat, but shalt not be filled: and thy humiliation shall be in the midst of thee: and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not save: and those whom thou shalt save, I will give up to the sword.
A e ai iho oe, aole e maona; Aia no iloko ou ka maule ana; A e lawe aku oe, aole e hoopakele, A o ka mea au e hoopakele ai, oia ka'u e haawi aku no ka pahikaua.
15 Thou shalt sow, but shalt not reap: thou shalt tread the olives, but shalt not be anointed with the oil: and the new wine, but shalt not drink the wine.
E lulu iho no oe, aka, aole oe e ohi mai; E hehi iho oe i na oliva, aole nae e poniia oe i ka aila; A i ka waina hou, aole nae oe e inu i ka waina.
16 For thou hast kept the statutes of Amri, and all the works of the house of Achab: and thou hast walked according to their wills, that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof a hissing, and you shall bear the reproach of my people.
No ka mea, ua malamaia na kanawai o Omeri, A me na hana a pau a ko ka hale o Ahaba, A ua hele oukou ma ko lakou manao; Nolaila, e hoolilo aku ai au ia oe i neoneo, A i kona poe kanaka i mea hoowahawahaia; A e lawe oukou i ka hoino o kuu poe kanaka.
