< Isaiah 38 >
1 In those days has Hezekiah been sick to death, and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, comes to him and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Give a charge to your house, for you [are] dying, and do not live.”
I A mau la, he mai make ko Hezekia; a hele mai la o Isaia, ke kaula, ke keiki a Amosa io na la, i mai la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, E kauoha oe i ko kou hale, no ka mea, e make ana oe, aole oe e ola.
2 And Hezekiah turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH,
Alaila, huli ae la o Hezekia i kona maka ma ka paia, a pule aku la ia Iehova,
3 and says, “Ah, now, O YHWH, please remember how I have habitually walked before You in truth, and with a perfect heart, and I have done that which [is] good in your eyes”; and Hezekiah weeps [with] a great weeping.
I aku la ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, ano la e hoomanao oe i ko'u hele ana imua ou ma ka oiaio, me ka naau pono, a ua hana i ka maikai ma kou alo. A uwe iho la o Hezekia, he uwe nui loa.
4 And a word of YHWH is to Isaiah, saying,
Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io lsaia la, i mai la,
5 “Go, and you have said to Hezekiah, Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tear, behold, I am adding fifteen years to your days,
O hele, e olelo aku ia Hezekia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o Davida, kou kupuna, penei, Ua lohe au i kau pule, a ua ike no wau i kou waimaka; aia hoi, e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la, i umikumamalima makahiki.
6 and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver you and this city, and have covered over this city.
A e hoopakele no wau ia oe, a me keia kulanakauhale mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria, a na'u no e malama i keia kulanakauhale.
7 And this [is] to you the sign from YHWH, that YHWH does this thing that He has spoken.
Eia hoi ka hoailona nou, mai Iehova mai, e hana io mai no o Iehova i ka mea ana i olelo mai ai;
8 Behold, I am bringing back the shadow of the degrees that it has gone down on the degrees of Ahaz, by the sun, backward ten degrees”; and the sun turns back ten degrees in the degrees that it had gone down.
Aia hoi, e hoihoi ihope no au i ke aka o na degere ana i iho ai ma ka mea ana hora o Ahaza, he umi degere ka hoi hope ana. A hoi hope io no ka la i umi degere, o na degere hoi ana i iho ai ilalo.
9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah concerning his being sick when he revives from his sickness:
Ke mele a Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda, mahope iho o kona mai ana, a ua ola hoi i kona mai.
10 “I said in the cutting off of my days, I go to the gates of Sheol, I have numbered the remnant of my years. (Sheol )
Olelo iho la au, E komo ana au i na puka o ka malumake, Mawaena konu o ko'u mau la; Ua hooneleia mai au i ke koena o ko'u mau makahiki. (Sheol )
11 I said, I do not see YAH—YAH! In the land of the living, I do not behold man anymore, With the inhabitants of the world.
I iho la au, aole au e ike aku ia Iehova, Ia Iehova hoi, ma ka aina o ka poe e ola ana; Aole au e ike hou i ke kanaka mawaena o ka poe e noho la ma ka malumake.
12 My sojourning has departed, And been removed from me as a shepherd’s tent, I have drawn together, as a weaver, my life, By weakness it cuts me off, From day to night You end me.
Ua laweia ko'u wahi noho, Ua kaikaiia'ku la, mai o'u aku nei, e like me ka halelewa o ke kahuhipa, Ua hooki au i ko'u ola ana, e like me ka mea ulana lole, Ua oki mai oia ia'u mai ka omau ana; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana oe ia'u.
13 I have set [Him] as a lion until morning, So He breaks all my bones, From day to night You end me.
Hoomaha ino la au a kakahiaka, E like me ka liona, pela no oia i uhaki ai i ko'u mau iwi a pau; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana no oe ia'u.
14 As a crane—a swallow—so I chatter, I mourn as a dove, My eyes have been drawn up on high, O YHWH, oppression [is] on me, be my guarantor.
E like me ka manu u, a me ka manu ioio, Pela no wau i ioio ai. Kaniuhu no wau e like me ka manu nunu; Maule hoi ko'u mau maka i ka nana ana iluna; E ka Haku, ua pilikia au, e kokua mai oe ia'u.
15 What do I say? Seeing He spoke to me, And He Himself has worked, I go softly all my years for the bitterness of my soul.
Heaha ka'u e olelo aku ai? No ka mea, ua olelo mai oia ia'u, a ua hana io mai no oia: E hele malie no wau i ko'u mau makahiki a pau, No ke kaumaha loa o kuu uhane.
16 Lord, [men] live by these, And by all in them [is] the life of my spirit, And You save me, make me to also live,
E ka Haku, no keia mau mea i ola'i na kanaka, Maloko o ka popilikia a pau, ua ola no kuu uhane; Ua hoopau oe i ko'u mai, ua hoola mai oe ia'u
17 Behold, He changed bitterness to peace for me, And You have delighted in my soul without corruption, For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
Aia hoi, ua hoololi mai oia i ko'u kaumaha loa i oluolu, Aloha mai no oe, a hoopakele mai ia'u, mai ka lua mai o ka make; No ka mea, ua kiola aku oe i ko'u hewa a pau mahope o kou kua.
18 For Sheol does not confess You, Death does not praise You, Those going down to the pit do not hope for Your truth. (Sheol )
Aole hiki i ko ka po ke hoomaikai aku ia oe, Aole hoi e hoolea aku ka poe make ia oe; O ka poe iho ilalo i ka lua, Aole hiki ia lakou ke manaolana. (Sheol )
19 The living, the living, he confesses You,
O ka mea ola, ka mea ola, Nana no e hoomaikai aku ia oe, me au nei i keia la; E hoike no ka makua i na keiki i kou oiaio.
20 Like myself today; A father makes known to [his] sons of Your faithfulness, O YHWH—to save me: And we sing my songs all [the] days of our lives In the house of YHWH.”
Malaila no o Iehova, e hoola mai ai ia'u, Nolaila kakou e hookanikani ai i ko'u mau viola, I na la a pau o ko kakou ola ana, maloko o ka hale o Iehova.
21 And Isaiah says, “Let them take a bunch of figs, and plaster over the ulcer, and he lives.”
No ka mea, ua olelo no o Isaia, e lawe lakou i pai fiku maloo, a e kau maluna o ka eha, a e ola no ia.
22 And Hezekiah says, “What [is] the sign that I go up to the house of YHWH?”
Ua ninau no hoi o Hezekia, Heaha ka hoailona e maopopo ai ko'u pii ana i ka hale o Iehova?
