Isaiah 25
1 O LORD, Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee, I will praise Thy name, for Thou hast done wonderful things; even counsels of old, in faithfulness and truth.
E IEHOVA, o oe no ko'u Akua, E hapai aku no wau ia oe, E hoolea aku no wau i kou inoa; No ka mea, ua hana oe i na mea kupanaha; Mai ka wa kahiko mai kou manao, He paa a he oiaio.
2 For Thou hast made of a city a heap, of a fortified city a ruin; a castle of strangers to be no city, it shall never be built.
No ka mea, ua hana mai oe i ke kulanakauhale, he puu, I ke kulanakauhale i paa i ka pakaua, he puu opala; I ka halealii o na malihini, i ole ia he kulanakauhale; Aole hoi ia e hana hou ia, a i ka manawa pau ole.
3 Therefore shall the strong people glorify Thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear Thee.
Nolaila, e hoomana'i ka lahuikanaka ikaika ia oe, A e makau no hoi ia oe ke kulanakauhale o na lahuikanaka weliweli.
4 For Thou hast been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat; for the blast of the terrible ones was as a storm against the wall.
No ka mea, ua noho oe i puuhonua no ka poe hune, I puuhonua hoi no ka mea poino maloko o kona pilikia, He puuhonua no ka ino, he malu hoi no ka wela, I ka wa e ikaika ai ka makani o ka poe hooweliweli e like me ka ino ma ka paia.
5 As the heat in a dry place, Thou didst subdue the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones was brought low.
E like me ka piao ana o ka aina maloo, Pela no oe e hoohaahaa'i i ka walaau o na kanaka e, E like me ka wela i pau i ke ao eleele, Pela no e hoopauia'i ke oli ana o ka poe ikaika.
6 And in this mountain will the LORD of hosts make unto all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
Na Iehova o na kaua e hana maluna o keia mauna, I ahaaina mea ono, no na kanaka a pau, he aha inu waina kahiko, He mau mea maikai ono loa, he waina kahiko i hanaia a maikai.
7 And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering that is cast over all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.
Maluna o keia mauna e lawe lilo ai oia i ka pale, I ka mea i uhi ai i ka maka o na lahuikanaka a pau, A me ka pale i uhi ai maluna o ko na aina a pau.
8 He will swallow up death for ever; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the reproach of His people will He take away from off all the earth; for the LORD hath spoken it.
E hoopau no hoi oia i ka make no ka manawa pau ole; A na ka Haku o Iehova, e holoi i ka waimaka, Mai na maka a pau aku; E lawe aku no hoi ia i ka hilahila o kona poe kanaka, Mai ka honua a pau aku; No ka mea, o Iehova ka i olelo mai.
9 And it shall be said in that day: 'Lo, this is our God, for whom we waited, that He might save us; this is the LORD, for whom we waited, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.'
Ia la la, e olelo no lakou, Aia hoi, o ko makou Akua keia; Ua kakali makou ia ia, a ua hoola mai oia ia makou; O Iehova no keia, ua kakali makou ia ia, E olioli no makou, a e hauoli hoi ma kona ola.
10 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill.
No ka mea, ma keia mauna e hoomaha ai ka lima o Iehova, A e hahiia o Moaba malalo iho ona, E like me ka hahiia o ka mauu maloo ma ka puu opala.
11 And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim, his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands.
E hohola aku no oia i kona mau lima mawaena konu o ia wahi, E like me ka mea auau, i halo aku i na lima e au: E hoohaahaa no ia i kona hookiekie, A me ka maalea o kona mau lima.
12 And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.
E hoohiolo no oia i ka pakaua o kou pa kiekie, E hana no oia a haahaa, E hoohaahaa no ma ka honua, ilalo hoi ma ka lepo.
