< Isaiah 50 >
1 Thus saith the LORD, Where [is] the bill of your mother’s divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors [is it] to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
KE ninau mai nei o Iehova penei, Auhea ka palapala hoohemo na ko oukou makuwahine? Ka mea a'u i hoohemo ai? Ua kuai lilo aku au ia oukou no wai o ka poe a'u i aie ai? Aia hoi, ua kuai lilo aku oukou ia oukou iho no ko oukou hewa, A no ko oukou hala, ua hoohemoia ko oukou makuwahine.
2 Wherefore, when I came, [was there] no man? when I called, [was there] none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because [there is] no water, and dieth for thirst.
Ia'u i hele mai ai, heaha ka mea i kanaka ole ai? A ia'u i hea aku ai, aohe mea nana i o mai? Ua hoopokole loa ia anei ko'u lima, i ole au e hoola aku? Aole anei o'u mana e hoopakele ai? Aia hoi, i kuu papa ana, hoomaloo no wau i ke kai, A hoolilo no wau i na muliwai, i waonahele; Pilau mai la ko lakou ia, no ka mea, aohe wai, e make hoi, no ka makewai.
3 I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
Hoaahu no au i na lani i ka pouli, A kau aku au i ke kapa makena, i uhi no lakou.
4 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to [him that is] weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
Ua haawi mai o Iehova ka Haku i ke alelo o ka poe akamai na'u, I ike au i ka hooikaika aku i ka mea luhi me ka olelo, Hoala mai no oia i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, Hoala mai no oia i ko'u pepeiao, e lohe, e like me ka mea i aoia.
5 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
Ua hoohakahaka o Iehova, ka Haku, i ko'u pepeiao, Aole hoi au i kipi aku, aole au i hoi hope.
6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
Haawi no au i ko'u kua i ka poe hahau, A me ko'u mau papalina i ka poe i uhuki lauoho: Aole au i huna i ko'u maka, mai ka hilahila, a me ke kuha ana.
7 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
Na Iehova, ka Haku e kokua mai ia'u, Nolaila, aole au e hoopalaimaka; Nolaila hoi au i kau ai i ko'u maka, me he pohaku paea la, A ua ike no au, aole au e hilahila ana.
8 [He is] near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who [is] mine adversary? let him come near to me.
Ua kokoke mai no ka mea nana au e hoapono; Owai hoi ka mea hakaka me au? E ku pu aku maua: Owai ko'u hoapaio? E hookokoke mai oia ia'u.
9 Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who [is] he [that] shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
Aia hoi e kokua mai no o Iehova ka Haku ia'u; Owai hoi ka mea nana e hoahewa mai ia'u? Aia hoi, e lilo no lakou a pau i mea kahiko, me he lole la, E ai no ka mu ia lakou.
10 Who [is] among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh [in] darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
Owai la ka mea iwaena o oukou i makau aku ia Iehova, E hoolohe ana hoi i ka leo o kana kauwa, Ka mea e hele ana ma ka pouli, aole ona malamalama? E hilinai aku oia ma ka inoa o Iehova, A e hoomaha hoi ma kona Akua.
11 Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass [yourselves] about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks [that] ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
Aia hoi, o oukou a pau, ka poe hoa i ke ahi, Ka poe i kakoo ia oukou iho i na lamaku; E hele oukou ma ka malamalama o ko oukou ahi, A me na lamaku a oukou i kuni ai. E loaa no keia ia oukou ma kuu lima, E moe ana no oukou ilalo iloko o ka eha.
