< Esias 3 >

1 Behold now, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, will take away from Jerusalem and from Judea the mighty man and mighty woman, the strength of bread, and the strength of water,
A IA hoi, o Iehova, ka Haku o na kaua, E lawe ana ia i na kookoo a pau, Mai ko Ierusalema, a mai ka Iuda aku, I ke kookoo a pau ma ka ai, i ke kookoo a pau ma ka wai,
2 the great and mighty man, the warrior and the judge, and the prophet, and the counsellor, and the elder,
I ka mea ikaika, a me ke kanaka koa, I ka lunakanawai, a me ke kaula. I ka mea kilokilo, a me ka mea kahiko;
3 the captain of fifty also, and the honorable counsellor, and the wise artificer, and the intelligent hearer.
I ka lunakanalima, a me ke kanaka koikoi, I ke kakaolelo, a me ka mea ike i na hana, I ka mea no hoi i akamai i ka hoowalewale moo.
4 And I will make youths their princes, and mockers shall have dominion over them.
E haawi aku no hoi au, e noho na kamalii maluna o lakou, E noho alii no na keiki uuku maluna o lakou.
5 And the people shall fall, man upon man, and [every] man upon his neighbor: the child shall insult the elder man, and the base the honorable.
E hookaumahaia na kanaka, kekahi e kekahi, A me ke kanaka hoi e kona hoa; A e hookiekie no ka mea opiopio maluna o ka mea kahiko, A me ka mea i hoowahawahaia maluna o ka mea hanohano.
6 For a man shall lay hold of his brother, as one of his father's household, saying, You have raiment, be you our ruler, and let my meat be under you.
E lalau no ke kanaka i kona hoahanau o ka hale o kona makuakane, me ka olelo iho, Ea, he aahu no kou, e noho alii oe maluna o makou, Malalo hoi o kou lima keia pilikia.
7 And he shall answer in that day, and say, I will not be your ruler; for I have no bread in my house, nor raiment: I will not be the ruler of this people.
Ia la la, e hookiekie no kela i kona leo, me ka olelo mai, Aole au e noho hooponopono maluna o oukou, No ka mea, aohe ai ma ko'u hale, aole hoi he mea aahu; Mai hoonoho ia'u i alii maluna o kanaka;
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judea has fallen, and their tongues [have spoken] with iniquity, disobedient [as they are] towards the Lord.
No ka mea, ua kulanalana o Ierusalema, ua haule hoi o Iuda; No ke ku e o ko lakou elelo a me ka lakou hana ia Iehova, E hoonaukiuki aku i kona mau maka hanohano.
9 Therefore now their glory has been brought low, and the shame of their countenance has withstood them, and they have proclaimed their sin as Sodom, and made it manifest.
O ka ike ana i ko lakou helehelena ka i hoike no lakou; Ke hai nei hoi lakou i ko lakou hewa e like me Sodoma, Aole lakou i hoole. Auwe ko lakou poe uhane! No ka mea, ua lawe mai lakou i ka hewa maluna o lakou iho.
10 Woe to their soul, for they have devised an evil counsel against themselves, saying against themselves, Let us bind the just, for he is burdensome to us: therefore shall they eat the fruits of their works.
E olelo aku oukou i na mea i pono, e pomaikai lakou, No ka mea, e ai no lakou i ka hua o ka lakou hana ana.
11 Woe to the transgressor! evils shall happen to him according to the works of his hands.
Auwe hoi ka mea i hewa! e poino no ia; E haawiia'ku nana ka uku o kona mau lima.
12 O my people, your exactors strip you, and extortioners rule over you: O my people, they that pronounce you blesses lead you astray, and pervert the path of your feet.
O ko'u poe kanaka, o na kamal i ko lakou poe luna alunu, O na wahine hoi ka i noho alii maluna o lakou. E kuu poe kanaka, he poe hoolalau kou poe alakai, A ke hoopau nei lakou i ko oukou mau alanui.
13 But now the Lord will stand up for judgment, and will enter into judgment with his people.
Ke ku nei no o Iehova e hoakaka mai, Ua ku no ia iluna e hooponopono i na kanaka.
14 The Lord himself shall enter into judgment with the elders of the people, and with their rulers: but why have you set my vineyard on fire, and [why is] the spoil of the poor in your houses?
E hele mai ana no o Iehova e hoopai, I na lunakahiko o kona poe kanaka, a me ko lakou poe alii: Ua hoopau oukou i na pawaina; Aia hoi ma ko oukou hale ka waiwai kaili wale ia o ka poe hune.
15 Why do you wrong my people, and shame the face of the poor?
No ke aha la oukou e hookaumaha nei i ko'u poe kanaka? A e anai i na maka o ka poe hune? Wahi a ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua.
16 Thus says the Lord, Because the daughters of Sion are haughty, and have walked with an outstretched neck, and with winking of the eyes, and motion of the feet, at the same time drawing their garments in trains, and at the same time sporting with their feet:
Ua olelo mai no hoi o Iehova, No ka laua haakei o na kaikamahine o Ziona, A hele me ka oeoe o na a-i, A me ka makaleho hilahila ole; He hele hooioi ko lakou hele, A kanikani na kupee o ko lakou wawae:
17 therefore the Lord will humble the chief daughters of Sion, and the Lord will expose their form in that day;
E hooolohelohe no ka Haku i ka pikopoo o na kaikamahine o Ziona, E hoike no o Iehova i ko lakou wahi hilahila,
18 and the Lord will take away the glory of their raiment, the curls and the fringes, and the crescents,
Ia la la, e lawe aku no ka Haku i ko lakou mea e nani ai, I na kupee wawae, A me na upena papale oho, A me na lei o ka a i;
19 and the chains, and the ornaments of their faces,
I na gula pepeiao, a me na kupee lima, A me na pale kalukalu;
20 and the array of glorious ornaments, and the armlets, and the bracelets, and the wreathed work, and the finger-rings, and the ornaments for the right hand,
I na papale hainaka, a me na kaula kupee wawae, I na kaei, a me na hue laau ala, A me na mea pale akua;
21 and the ear-rings, and the garments with scarlet borders, and the garments with purple grounds, and the shawls to be worn in the house, and the Spartan transparent dresses, and those made of fine linen, and the purple [ones], and the scarlet [ones], and the fine linen, interwoven with gold and purple, and the light coverings for couches.
I na komolima, a me na gula ihu,
22 And there shall be instead of a sweet smell, dust; and instead of a girdle, you shall gird yourself with a rope; and instead of a golden ornament for the head, you shall have baldness on account of your works; and instead of a tunic with a scarlet ground, you shall gird yourself with sackcloth.
I na aahu kuai nui, a me na holoku, I na kalukalu nui, a me na hipuu kala;
23 And your most beautiful son whom you love shall fall by the sword; and your mighty men shall fall by the sword, and shall be brought low.
I na aniani nana, a me na palule, I na ribina lei o ke poo, A me na aahu nui.
24 And the stores of your ornaments shall mourn, and you shall be left alone, and shall be levelled with the ground.
Ma kahi i aala, e pilau ana no, Ma kahi kaei, he kaula, Ma ke oho owili e ohule ana no, Ma kahi o ka pa-u hanohano, he kaei inoino, Ma kahi maikai e paawela ana no.
E haule no kou poe kanaka i ka pahikaua, A me kou poe koa hoi ma ke kaua.
E uwe, a e u hoi kona mau pukapa, A e noho neoneo oia ma ka lepo.
