Isaiah 47
1 “Come down, and sit on the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, Sit on the earth, there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans, For they no longer cry to you, O tender and delicate one.
E IHO ilalo, a e noho ma ka lepo, e ke kaikamahine puupaa o Babulona, E noho ma ka honua, aoho noho alii, e ke kaikamahine o Kaledea; No ka mea, aole oe e hea hou ia he puloku, a palupalu.
2 Take millstones, and grind flour, Remove your veil, draw up the skirt, Uncover the leg, pass over the floods.
E lawe i ka mea kaapalaoa, a e kaa hoi i ka palaoa, E wehe i kou pale maka, e waiho aku ka huakapu, E wehe i ka uha, a e hele ae i kela aoao o na muliwai.
3 Your nakedness is revealed, indeed, your reproach is seen, I take vengeance, and I do not meet a man.”
E weheia auanei kou hena, a e ikeia hoi kou wahi hilahila; E hoopai io no wau, aole e pakele kekahi kanaka ia'u.
4 Our redeemer [is] YHWH of Hosts, His Name [is] the Holy One of Israel.
O ko kakou Hoolapanai, o Iehova o na kaua kona inoa, O ka Mea Hemolele hoi o ka Iseraela.
5 “Sit silent, and go into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans, For they no longer cry to you, Mistress of kingdoms.
E noho ekemu ole oe, a e hele aku hoi, a iloko o ka pouli, E ke kaikamahine o ko Kaledea; No ka mea, aole oe e kapa hou ia. He haku wahine o na aupuni.
6 I have been angry against My people, I have defiled My inheritance And I give them into your hand, You have not appointed mercies for them, You have made your yoke very heavy on the aged,
Ukiuki aku la au i ko'u poe kanaka, Ua hoohaumia au i ko'u poe hooilina, Ua haawi hoi au ia lakou iloko o kou lima; Aole oe i hoike aku i ke aloha ia lakou, Ua hookaumaha oe i kau auamo maluna o ka mea elemakule.
7 And you say, I am mistress for all time, While you have not laid these things to your heart, You have not remembered the latter end of it.
Ua olelo no oe, E mau loa no ko'u noho haku wahine ana; Aole hoi oe i manao i keia mau mea ma kou naau, Aole i noonoo i kona hope.
8 And now, hear this, O luxurious one, Who is sitting confidently—Who is saying in her heart, I [am], and none else, I do not sit [as] a widow, nor know bereavement.
Nolaila, e hoolohe mai oe i keia, e ka mea olioli, Ka mea e noho makau ole ana; Ka mea olelo ma kou naau, Owau ana no, aohe mea e ae, ke kaawale au; Aole au e noho wahine kanemake ana, Aole hoi au e ike i ka lilo keiki ana,
9 And these two things come to you, In a moment, in one day: childlessness and widowhood, They have come on you according to their perfection, In the multitude of your sorceries, In the exceeding might of your charms.
Aka, e kau hoohikilele mai no keia mau mea elua maluna ou, ma ka la hookahi, O ka lilo keiki ana, a me ka wahinekanemake ana: E kau loa mai no ia mau mea maluna ou ma ka oiaio maoli, No ka nui o kou kilokilo ana, a no ka nui loa o kou hoopiopio ana.
10 And you are confident in your wickedness, You have said, There is none seeing me, Your wisdom and your knowledge, It is turning you back, And you say in your heart, I [am], and none else.
Ua hilinai no hoi oe ma kou hewa; A ua olelo no oe, Aohe mea ike mai ia'u. O kou akamai, a me kou ike, ua hookahuli ia ia oe; A ua olelo no oe maloko o kou naau, Owau ana no, aohe mea e ae, ke kaawale au.
11 And evil has come in on you, You do not know its rising, And disaster falls on you, You are not able to pacify it, And desolation comes on you suddenly, You do not know.
Nolaila, e hiki mai no ka hewa maluna ou, Aole oe e ike i kahi e hiki mai ai; E haule mai no ka popilikia maluna ou, Aole hiki ia oe ke kala aku ia. E hele hoohikilele mai no ka make maluna ou, Aole oe e ike aku.
12 Now stand in your charms, And in the multitude of your sorceries, In which you have labored from your youth, It may be you are able to profit, It may be you terrify!
E ku mai hoi oe me kou hoopiopio ana, A me kou kilokilo ana, he nui loa, Me ka mea au i hooikaika'i, mai kou wa opiopio mai; Ina paha e hiki ia oe ke hoopomaikaiia, Ina paha e ku lanakila oe.
13 You have been wearied in the multitude of your counsels, Now stand up and let them save you—The charmers of the heavens, Those looking on the stars, Those teaching concerning the months—From those things that come on you!
Ua luhi no oe i ka nui loa o kou kukakuka ana: E ku mai ano na kilolani, a me na kilokilohoku, a me na mea haiouli ma ka malama, A e hoola hoi ia oe, mai ka mea e hiki mai ana maluna ou.
14 Behold, they have been as stubble! Fire has burned them, They do not deliver themselves from the power of the flame, There is not a coal to warm them, a light to sit before it.
Aia hoi, e like auanei lakou me ka opala, Na ke ahi no lakou e hoopau; Aole lakou e hoopakele ia lakou iho, mai ka mana o ka lapalapa ahi; Aole e koe ana ka lanahu ahi i mea e mahaua'i, Aole ahi e koe, i noho kekahi imua o ia.
15 So they have been to you with whom you have labored, Your merchants from your youth, They have each wandered to his passage, None is saving you!”
Pela auanei ia oe, ka poe au i hana pu ai, Kou poe kalepa hoi, mai kou wa opiopio mai: E auwana no kela mea keia mea i kona aoao iho, Aohe mea e hoola ia oe.
