< Isaiah 27 >

1 In that day YHWH lays a charge, With His sword—the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan—a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan—a crooked serpent, And He has slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.
I KELA la, me kona pahikaua kaumaha, a nui, a ikaika, E hoopai mai ai o Iehova i leviatana, i ka nahesa lele hoi, I leviatana, i nahesa kekee hoi, A e pepehi no oia i ka moo nui maloko o ke kai.
2 In that day respond to her, “A desirable vineyard,
I kela la, e hookani oukou no ka pawaina.
3 I, YHWH, am its keeper, I water it every moment, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!
Owau, o Iehova, ke malama aku nei au ia, E hoomau aku au ia ia i ka wai i na manawa a pau. O hoeha mai kekahi ia ia i ka po, a i ke ao paha, E kiai aku no wau ia ia.
4 Fury is not in Me; Who gives Me a brier—a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.
Aohe huhu iloko o'u, Owai ka mea nana e hoonoho i ke kakalaioa, a me ka puakala, E ku e mai ia'u ma ke kaua ana? E hele ku e no wau ia lakou, E puhi no wau ia lakou pu.
5 Or—he takes hold on My strength, [That] he makes peace with Me, [And] he makes peace with Me.”
Ina e pili mai oia i ko'u ikaika, A hana mai ia'u ma ka mea e malu ai, E malu io no oia ia'u.
6 He causes those coming in to take root, Jacob blossoms, and Israel has flourished, And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.
E hookumu no oia i ka poe i laha mai, mai o Iakoba mai, E hoomaka no ka Iseraela, a e mohala hoi, A e hoopiha no ia i keia ao i ka hua.
7 Has He struck him as the striking of his striker? Does He slay as the slaying of his slain?
Ua hahau mai anei oia ia ia, E like me kona hahau ana mai i ka poe i hahau aku ia ia? Ua pepehiia anei oia, e like me ka pepehiia o ka poe i pepehi aku ia ia?
8 In measure, in sending it forth, you strive with it, He has taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
I kou kipaku ana, e hahau liilii ana no oe ia ia; Ke hoopuehu nae no oia ia ia me ka makani ikaika, i ka la o ka makani mai ka hikina mai.
9 Therefore the iniquity of Jacob is covered by this, And this [is] all the fruit—To take away his sin, In his setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They do not rise—Asherim and images.
Penei hoi e kalaia'i ka hewa o Iakoba, A he hua no keia a pau e kala'i i ka hala; I kona hoolilo ana i na pohaku a pau o ke kuahu, E like me na pohaku puna i ulupaia, I ala ole mai hoi na kii o Aseterota, a me na'kua kii.
10 For the fortified city [is] alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There the calf delights, And there it lies down, And has consumed its branches.
Aka, e neoneo auanei ke kulanakauhale i paa i ka pakaua, A lilo hoi i hale haaleleia, a waihoia no hoi e like me ka waonahele. Malaila no e ai ai ka bipi, Malaila no hoi ia e moe ai, A e ai no ia i kolaila muo hou.
11 In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in [and] setting it on fire, For it [is] not a people of understanding, Therefore its Maker does not pity it, And its Former does not favor it.
A maloo kona mau lala, alaila, e uhaiia no lakou; E hele mai no na wahine, a e puhi ia mau mea i ke ahi. No ka mea, he lahuikanaka noonoo ole ia; Nolaila, o ka mea nana ia i hana, aole ia e aloha mai ia ia, A o ka mea nana ia i kukulu, aole ia e hana lokomaikai mai ia ia.
12 And it has come to pass in that day, YHWH beats out from the branch of the river, To the stream of Egypt, And you are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
A hiki aku ia la, E uhai o Iehova, mai ka wai o kahawai mai, A hiki aku i ka muliwai o Aigupita, A e hoiliili pakahi ia oukou, E na mamo a Iseraela.
13 And it has come to pass in that day, It is blown with a great horn, And those perishing in the land of Asshur have come in, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to YHWH, In the holy mountain—in Jerusalem!
A hiki aku ia la, E puhiia ka pu nui, A e hele mai ka poe aneane make ma ka aina o Asuria, A o ka poe i puenuia ma ka aina o Aigupita, A e hoomana lakou ia Iehova, Ma ka mauna hoano ma Ierusalema.
