< Isaiah 45 >
1 Thus hath said the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whom I have taken hold of by his right hand, to subdue nations before him, even the loins of kings will I ungird, to open before him [city-]doors, and gates that they shall not be shut;
PENEI o Iehova i olelo mai ai no kona mea i poniia, No Kuro, nona ka lima akau a'u i hooikaika ai, E hoopio i na lahuikanaka imua ona; A e kala no hoi au i ko na puhaka o na'lii, I hamama na puka imua ona, Aole hoi e paniia na pukapa.
2 I myself will go before thee, and proud eminences will I level: doors of brass will I break in pieces, and bolts of iron will I cut asunder.
E hele no wau imua ou, a e hoolaumania i na wahi apuupuu, E wawahi no au i na pani puka keleawe, A e uhaki ia'u na kaola hao.
3 And I will give unto thee the treasures of darkness, and riches hidden in secret places; in order that thou mayest know that I am the Lord, who call thee by thy name, the God of Israel;
E haawi aku no au ia oe i ka waiwai o ka pouli, A me ka ukana i hunaia ma kahi nalowale, I ike ai oe, owau no Iehova, ka mea i hea aku ia oe ma ka inoa, Ke Akua hoi o ka Iseraela.
4 For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect; and I have called thee by thy name: I have designated thee, though thou hast not known me.
No ka'u kauwa, no Iakoba, No ka Iseraela hoi, ka mea a'u i wae ai, Ua hea aku no au ia oe; Ma kou inoa ua hea aku au ia oe, Aole nae oe i ike mai ia'u.
5 I am the Lord, and there is none else, beside me there is no god; I assisted thee, though thou hast not known me.
Owau no Iehova, aohe mea e ae, Aohe Akua e ae, ke kaawale au; Na'u no e kaei aku ia oe, aole nae oe i ike mai ia'u;
6 In order that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from its setting, that there is nothing without me. I am the Lord, and there is no one else;
I ike lakou, mai ka puka ana a ka la mai, A mai ke komohana mai hoi, Aohe mea e ae, ke kaawale au; Owau no o Iehova, aohe mea e ae.
7 Forming the light, and creating darkness; making peace, and creating evil: I the Lord do all these things.
Ka mea nana i hana ka malamalama, A nana hoi i hana ka pouli, Nana i hana ka pomaikai, Nana hoi i hana ka poino, Owau no Iehova, ka mea nana e hana keia mau mea a pau.
8 Drop down ye heavens, and let the skies distil blessing; let the earth open and let them [all] be fruitful of prosperity, and let righteousness spring up likewise: I the Lord have created it.
E hoonakulukulu oukou, e na lani, mai luna mai, E hanini hoi na aouli i ka pono; E hamama hoi ka honua, a e hua mai i ke ola, E ulu pu mai no me ka pono; Na'u, na Iehova ia i hana.
9 Woe unto him that contendeth with the one who formed him—a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
Auwe ke kanaka paio aku i kona mea nana ia i hana? Na mea lepo me na mea lepo o ka honua! E olelo anei ka lepokiaha, i ka mea nana ia e hooponopono, Heaha kau e hana nei? A o ka mea au i hana'i, Aole ona lima?
10 Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What bringest thou forth?
Auwe ka mea olelo i ka makuakane, Heaha kau e hoohanau ai? A i ka makuwahine hoi, Ua hanau oe i ke aha?
11 Thus hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and he who hath formed him, About events to come will you ask me? concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands will ye command me?
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela, penei, O ka Mea hoi nana ia i hana, E ninau mai oukou ia'u i na mea e hiki mai ana no ka'u mau keiki, A e kauoha mai oukou ia'u ma ka hana a kuu mau lima.
12 [When] I myself have made the earth, and created man upon it; [when] I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and I have ordained all their host.
Na'u no i hana ka honua nei, A hana no hoi au i na kanaka maluna iho; Na kuu mau lima no i hohola aku i na lani, A na'u hoi i kauoha aku i ko lakou lehulehu a pau.
13 I myself have waked him up in righteousness, and all his ways will I make straight: he shall build my city, and my exiles shall he dismiss free, not for purchase-money nor for presents, saith the Lord of hosts.
Ua hoala no au ia ia, no ka pono, Na'u no e hoopololei i kona mau aoao, Nana no e hana i ko'u kulanakauhale, A nana no e hookuu aku i ko'u poe pio; Aole no ka uku, a me ka waiwai kipe, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
14 Thus hath said the Lord, The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of high stature, shall pass over unto thee, and thine shall they be: behind thee shall they walk; in chains shall they pass along, and unto thee shall they bow, unto thee shall they pray, [saying] Yea, only among thee is God; and there is no one else beside God.
Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, E hele mai no ianei, iou la, Ka waiwai o Aigupita, a me ka mea kuai o Aitiopa, A me ko Seba, ka poe kanaka nunui, a e lilo lakou nou. E hahai no lakou ia oe; me ka paa ana i na kaula hao lakou e hele mai ai, A e moe no lakou ilalo imua ou, E nonoi aku no lakou ia oe, me ka olelo iho, He oiaio no, me oe no ke Akua, aohe Akua e ae.
15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
He oiaio no, o ke Akua no oe nana i huna ia oe iho, E ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea e ola'i.
16 They are ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: together shall they go to confusion that are makers of idols.
Ua hilahila, a ua hoopalaimaka lakou a pau; Holo pu no iloko o ka hilahila, ka poe hana akuakii.
17 [But] Israel shall be helped by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed and not be confounded unto all eternity.
E hoolaia no o ka Iseraela maloko o Iehova, me ke ola mau loa; Aole oukou e hilahila, aole hoi e hoopalaimaka, ia ao aku, ia ao aku.
18 For thus hath said the Lord the creator of the heavens; he, the God that formed the earth and made it; he that hath established it, —not for naught did he create it, to be inhabited did he form it: I am the Lord; and there is no one else.
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, Ka mea nana i hana na lani; Oia ke Akua, ka mea nana i hana ka honua, a kukulu hoi, Ka mea nana ia i hoopaa, aole hoi ia i hana makehewa ia mea, Hana no oia ia i wahi e nohoia'i; Owau no Iehova, aohe mea e ae,
19 Not on a secret spot have I spoken, in a dark place of the earth; I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me for naught; [but] I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
Aole au i olelo ma kahi malu, ma kahi pouli o ka honua; Aole au i olelo aku i na pua a Iakoba, E imi makehewa oukou ia'u. Owau o Iehova, ka mea e olelo ana ma ka pono, Ka mea e hai. aku ana i na mea pololei.
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye escaped fugitives of the nations! They have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.
E hoakoakoa oukou, a hele mai, E houluulu pu oukou, e ka poe i pakele o na aina. He poe ike ole ka poe kukulu i ka laau o ko lakou akua kalaiia, A pule aku i ke akua hiki ole ke hoola.
21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this in ancient times? told it from the beginning? is it not I the Lord? and there is no other god without me, a just god and a saviour; there is none beside me.
E hai aku, e lawe mai hoi ia lakou; Oia, e kukakuka pa lakou. Nawai i hai i keia, mai kahiko mai, A hoikeike hoi ia, mai kela wa mai? Aole anei owau. o Iehova? Aole hoi he Akua e ae, ke Kaawale au; O ke Akua pono, ka mea e ola'i, aohe mea e ae.
22 Turn unto me, so that ye may be helped, all ye ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no one else.
E haliu mai oukou ia'u a e hoolaia no oukou, E na kukulu o ka honua; No ka mea, owau no ke Akua, aohe mea e ae.
23 By myself have I sworn, righteousness is gone out of my mouth, a word [which] shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bend, every tongue shall swear.
Ua hoohiki au ia'u iho, Ua puka aku hoi ka olelo, mai ko'u waha aku ma ka pono, Aole ia i hoi hou, no ka mea, la'u no e kukuli ai na kuli a pau, a e hoohiki no hoi na elelo a pau.
24 Only in the Lord, —shall men say of me, —there are righteousness and strength. Unto him shall come and be ashamed all that are incensed against him.
He oiaio, e olelo mai ia'u, maloko o Iehova na mea pono, a me ka ikaika, Ia ia no lakou e hele mai ai; A e hilahila auanei ka poe a pau i inaina aku ia ia.
25 In the Lord shall be justified, and shall glory themselves all the seed of Israel.
Maloko o Iehova e hoaponoia'i na pua a pau o ka Iseraela, A malaila hoi e hoonani ai.
