< Zephaniah 3 >

1 Woe to the provoking, and redeemed city, the dove.
A UWE ka mea e kipi ana, a me ka mea haumia, Ke kulanakauhale hookoikoi.
2 She hath not hearkened to the voice, neither hath she received discipline: she hath not trusted in the Lord, she drew not near to her God.
Aole ia i hoolohe i ka leo, aole hoi i ae aku i ke aoia mai; Aole hoi ia i paulele ia Iehova, Aole ia i hookokoke aku i kona Akua.
3 Her princes are in the midst of her as roaring lions: her judges are evening wolves, they left nothing for the morning.
O na'lii iloko ona, he poe liona uwo lakou; O na lunakanawai ona, he poe iliohae o ke ahiahi; Aole lakou e hookoe a hiki i ke kakahiaka.
4 Her prophets are senseless men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law.
He poe haaheo na kaula ona, na kanaka hoopunipuni; Ua hoohaumia na kahuna ona i ke keenakapu, Ua haihai lakou i ke kanawai.
5 The just Lord is in the midst thereof, he will not do iniquity: in the morning, in the morning he will bring his judgment to light, and it shall not be hid: but the wicked man hath not known shame.
Iwaenakonu o lakou o Iehova ka mea hoopono, Aole ia e hana i ka pono ole; E hoakaka mai ana ia i kona pono ia kakahiaka ae, ia kakahiaka ae, aole haule; Aka, o ka mea hana hewa, aole ia i hoomaopopo i ka hilahila,
6 I have destroyed the nations, and their towers are beaten down: I have made their ways desert, so that there is none that passeth by: their cities are desolate, there is not a man remaining, nor any inhabitant.
Ua hooki iho au i na lahuikanaka; Ua hoohioloia na pakaua o lakou; Ua hooneoneo au i ko lakou mau alanui, i maalo ole ae kekahi ilaila; Ua hoohinaia na kulanakauhale o lakou, a koe ole kekahi, Aole hoi e noho ana kekahi kanaka iloko.
7 I said: Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive correction: and her dwelling shall not perish, for all things wherein I have visited her: but they rose early and corrupted all their thoughts.
Olelo iho la au, Ina oe e makau mai ia'u, a e ae mai i ke aoia, I hooki ole ia'i kona noho ana, e like me na mea a'ue olelo mua ai nona: Aka, ua ala lakou i ka wanaao, e hoohaumia i ka lakou hana a pau.
8 Wherefore expect me, saith the Lord, in the day of my resurrection that is to come, for my judgment is to assemble the Gentiles, and to gather the kingdoms: and to pour upon them my indignation, all my fierce anger: for with the fire of my jealousy shall all the earth be devoured.
No ia mea, e kali oukou ia'u, wahi a Iehova, A hiki i ka la a'u e ku ae ai i ka waiwai pio: No ka mea, o kuu manao no e houluulu i na lahuikanaka, e hoakoakoa i ko na aupuni, E ninini iho i kuu inaina maluna o lakou, i ka wela a pau o ko'u huhu; No ka mea, e pau auanei ka honua a pau i ke ahi o kuu lili.
9 Because then I will restore to the people a chosen lip, that all may call upon the name of the Lord, and may serve him with one shoulder.
Alaila au e haawi aku ai i na kanaka i ka Iehelehe maikai, I kahea aku ai lakou a pau i ka inoa o Iehova, A e hookauwa aku ai nana me ka poohiwi hookahi.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, shall my suppliants the children of my dispersed people bring me an offering.
Mai na aina mai o ka muliwai o Aitiopa, E lawe mai ana ko'u poe haipule, o ke kaikamahine o ko'u poe hele liilii, i alana na'u.
11 In that day thou shalt not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee thy proud boasters, and thou shalt no more be lifted up because of my holy mountain.
Ia la no, aole oe e hilahila i kau hana ana a pau, I na mea au i lawehala ai ia'u: No ka mea, alaila au e lawe aku ai mai ou aku la i kou poe e olioli i ka hookiekie; I ole ai oe e hookiekie hou aku ma kuu mauna hoano.
12 And I will leave in the midst of thee a poor and needy people: and they shall hope in the name of the Lord.
A e hoolilo au i na kanaka i koe iwaena o oukou i poe haahaa, a me ka ilihune, A e paulele auanei lakou i ka inoa o Iehova.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies, nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed, and shall lie down, and there shall be none to make them afraid.
Aole e hana ino ke koena o ka Iseraela, Aole hoi e olelo hoopunipuni lakou; Aole no hoi e loaa ka elelo wahahee iloko o ko lakou waha; Aka, e ai auanei iakou, a e moe iho, aole kekahi mea e hooweliweli ana ia lakou.
14 Give praise, O daughter of Sion: shout, O Israel: be glad, and rejoice with all thy heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
E mele oe, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona, E hooho aku, e ka Iseraela, e olioli, E hauoli hoi me kou naau a pau, e ke kaikamahine o Ierusalema,
15 The Lord hath taken away thy judgment, he hath turned away thy enemies: the king of Israel the Lord is in the midst of thee, thou shalt fear evil no more.
Ua lawe aku la o Iehova i kou hoohewaia ana, Ua kipaku aku la i kou poe enemi; O Iehova ke alii o ka Iseraela, oia no iwaena ou; Aole hoi oe e ike hou i ka hewa.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: Fear not: to Sion: Let not thy hands be weakened.
Ia la la, e oleloia auanei ia Ierusalema, Mai makau oe: E Ziona, Mai hoonawaliwali i kou mau lima.
17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty, he will save: he will rejoice over thee with gladness, he will be silent in his love, he will be joyful over thee in praise.
O Iehova o kou Akua iwaena ou, He mana kona, e hoola mai ana oia; E olioli auanei oia nou me ka hauoli, E noho malie oia i kona aloha, E hauoli oia nou me ka mele ana.
18 The triflers that were departed from the law, I will gather together, because they were of thee: that thou mayest no more suffer reproach for them.
E houluulu ana au i ka poe e u ana no kau mau ahaaina, i lilo ai lakou nou, Ka poe kaumaha i ka hoinoia nona.
19 Behold I will cut off all that have afflicted thee at that time: and I will save her that halteth, and will gather her that was cast out: and I will get them praise, and a name, in all the land where they had been put to confusion.
Aia hoi, e hoauhee auanei au i ka poe a pau i hoopilikia ia oe ia manawa; A e malama no au i ka mea oopa, a e hoihoi mai ana no au I ka mea i kipakuia'ku; A e haawi au ia lakou i ka hoomaikaiia, a me ka inoa kaulana, Ma na aina a pau i hoohilahilaia'i lakou.
20 At that time, when I will bring you: and at the time that I will gather you: for I will give you a name, and praise among all the people of the earth, when I shall have brought back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord.
Ia manawa no na'u oukou e alakai mai, I ka manawa a'u e houluulu ai ia oukou: A e hookaulana au i ko oukou inoa no ka hoomaikaiia iwaena o na kanaka a pau o ka honua, I kuu wa e hoihoi mai ai i ko oukou pio ana, imua o ko oukou mau maka, wahi a Iehova.
