< Isaiah 51 >

1 “Listen to Me, you pursuing righteousness, Seeking YHWH, Look attentively to the rock—you have been hewn, And to the hole of the pit—you have been dug.
E HOOLOHE mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe hahai i ka pono, Ka poe hoi e imi ana ia Iehova; E nana oukou ma ka pohaku, kahi a oukou i kalaiia'i, A i ka lua hoi maloko o ke ana, kahi a oukou kohiia'i.
2 Look attentively to your father Abraham, And to Sarah—she brings you forth, For—one—I have called him, And I bless him, and multiply him.”
E nana hoi ma o Aberahama la, ko oukou kupuna, Ia Sara hoi i ka mea nana oukou i hanau; No ka mea, oia hookahi ka'u i hea aku ai, A hoopomaikai aku ia ia, a hoonui aku i kana.
3 For YHWH has comforted Zion, He has comforted all her ruins, And He sets her wilderness as Eden, And her desert as a garden of YHWH, Joy, indeed, gladness is found in her, Confession, and the voice of song.
Pela no o Iehova e hoomaha mai ai ia Ziona, E hoomaha mai no i kona mau wahi neoneo a pau; A e hana no oia i kona waonahele, a like me Edena, A me kona waoakua e like me ka mahinaai a Iehova; Maloko olaila, e loaa no ka olioli a me ka hauoli, Ka hoolea ana, me ka leo o ke oli.
4 “Attend to Me, O My people, And, O My nation, give ear to Me. For a law goes out from Me, And My judgment to the light, I cause peoples to rest.
E hoolohe mai ia'u, e ko'u poe kanaka, E haliu mai ka pepeiao ia u, e ka lahuikanaka o'u; No ka mea, e laha aku no ke kanawai, mai o'u aku nei, A e hoolilo no wau i ko'u pono, i malamalama no na kanaka.
5 My righteousness [is] near, My salvation has gone out, And My arms judge peoples, Islands wait on Me, Indeed, on My arm they wait with hope.
Ua kokoke mai no ko'u pono, ua hele aku hoi ko'u ola, Na kuu lima no e hooponopono i kanaka; E kali no na mokupuni ia'u, a ma ko'u lima lakou e hilinai ai.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look attentively to the earth beneath, For the heavens have vanished as smoke, And the earth wears out as a garment, And its inhabitants die as gnats, And My salvation is for all time, And My righteousness is not broken.
E alawa ae i ko oukou maka iluna a i ka lani, E nana hoi ma ka honua malalo; E holo aku auanei na lani, e like me ka uwahi, A e apulu no hoi ka honua, me he lole la, Pela no e make ai ka poe e noho ana maluna iho; Aka, e oia mau ana no ko'u ola, Aole hoi e pau ana ko'u pono.
7 Listen to Me, you who know righteousness, A people in whose heart [is] My law, Do not fear the reproach of men, And do not be frightened of their reviling,
E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe ike i ka pono, E na kanaka hoi i loaa ko'u kanawai ma ko lakou naau; Mai makau oukou i ka hoowahawaha o kanaka, Mai weliweli hoi i ka lakou olelo hoino ana.
8 For a moth eats them as a garment, And a worm eats them as wool, And My righteousness is for all time, And My salvation from generation to generation.”
No ka mea, e ai no ka mu ia lakou, me he lole la, E ai no hoi ka huhu ia lakou e like me ka hulu hipa: Aka, e mau loa ana no ko'u pono, a i ke ao pau ole, A me ko'u ola hoi, mai keia hanauna, a ia hanauna aku.
9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of YHWH, Awake, as [in] days of old, generations of the ages, Are You not it that is hewing down Rahab, Piercing a dragon?
E ala, e ala, e aahu i ka ikaika, e ka lima o Iehova; E ala, e like me ia i na la mamua, I na hanauna kahiko loa aku hoi. Aole anei oe ka mea nana i okioki ia Rahaba? A hou iho no hoi i ka moonui?
10 Are You not it that is drying up a sea, Waters of a great deep? That has made deep places of a sea A way for the passing of the redeemed?
Aole anei oe ka mea nana i hoomaloo i ke kai? I na wai hoi o ka hohonu nui? A hoolilo hoi i na wahi hohonu o ke kai, I alanui e hele ai ka poe i hoolapanaiia?
11 And the ransomed of YHWH return, And they have come to Zion with singing, And continuous joy [is] on their head, They attain gladness and joy, Sorrow and sighing have fled away,
E hoi mai no hoi ko Iehova poe i hoolapanaiia, E hele mai no lakou i Ziona me ke oli; He hauoli mau loa maluna o ko lakou mau poo: E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli, a me ka hauoli, A e hee loa aku no ke kaumaha, a me ke kaniuhu.
12 “I [am] He who comforts you, Who [are] you—and you are afraid of man? He dies! And of the son of man—he is made [like] grass!
Owau, owau no ka mea nana oukou e hoomaha aku; Owai hoi oe, i makau aku ai oe i ke kanaka, i ka mea e make ana, A i ke keiki a ke kanaka hoi, i ka mea e lilo ana i mauu?
13 And you forget YHWH your Maker, Who is stretching out the heavens, and founding earth, And you continually fear all the day, Because of the fury of the oppressor, As he has prepared to destroy. And where [is] the fury of the oppressor?
A hoopoina hoi ia Iehova, i ka Mea nana oe i hana, A hohola ae la hoi i na lani, a hookumu i ka honua, A makau mau loa no hoi oe i na la a pau, No ka inaina o ka mea hooluhi, Ina paha ia e makaukau e luku iho? Auhea hoi ka inaina o ka mea hooluhi?
14 A wanderer has hurried to be loosed, And he does not die in the pit, And his bread is not lacking.
Wikiwiki ae la ke pio kulou, i weheia'i oia, I ole ia o make maloko o ka lua, I pau ole hoi kana berena.
15 And I [am] your God YHWH, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
Aka, owau no Iehova, kou Akua, Ka mea nana i hookupikipikio ke kai, A halulu mai la kona mau ale, O Iehova o na kaua kona inoa.
16 And I put My words in your mouth, And have covered you with the shadow of My hand, To plant the heavens, and to found earth, And to say to Zion, You [are] My people.”
Ua hahao no wau i ko'u mau huaolelo iloko o kou waha, A ua uhi aku ia oe i ke aka o ko'u lima, Me ka makia aku i na lani, a me ka hookumu i ka honua, I olelo aku au ia Ziona, O oe no ko'u poe kanaka.
17 Stir yourself, stir yourself, rise, Jerusalem, You who have drunk from the hand of YHWH The cup of His fury, The goblet, the cup of trembling, you have drunk, You have wrung out.
E ala e ala, e ku iluna, e Ierusalema, Ka mea i inu ma ka lima o Iehova, i ke kiaha o kona inaina; Ua inu no oe i ke kiaha bola e hikaka ai, Ua inu oe a moni loa hoi ilalo.
18 There is not a leader to her Out of all the sons she has borne, And there is none laying hold on her hand Out of all the sons she has nourished.
Aole mea e alakai ia ia o na keikikane a pau ana i hanau ai; Aohe mea lalau i kona lima o na keikikane a pau ana i hanai ai a nui.
19 These two are meeting you, Who is moved for you? Spoiling and destruction, famine and sword! By whom do I comfort you?
Ua hiki mai keia mau mea elua maluna ou; Owai hoi ka mea minamina ia oe? O ka neoneo a me ka make, O ka wi a me ka pahikaua; Ma owai la hoi au e hoomaha aku ai ia oe?
20 Your sons have been wrapped up, they have lain down, At the head of all out places, as an antelope [in] a dragnet, They are full of the fury of YHWH, The rebuke of Your God.
Ua maule kau mau keikikane, Ke kaa nei no ma na poo o na alanui a pau, E like me ka bipi hihiu maloko o ka upena; Ua hoopihaia lakou i ka inaina o Iehova, I ka paipai ana hoi o kou Akua.
21 Therefore, please hear this, O afflicted and drunken one, and not with wine,
Nolaila, e hoolohe mai oe i keia, e ka mea popilikia, A ona hoi, aole nae i ka waina:
22 Thus said your Lord YHWH, and your God, He pleads [for] His people: “Behold, I have taken the cup of trembling out of your hand, The goblet, the cup of My fury, You do not add to drink it anymore.
Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, kou Haku, O kou Akua hoi, nana e kokua i kona poe kanaka: Aia hoi, ua lawe au i ke kiaha e hikaka ai, mai kou lima aku, I ke kiaha bola hoi o ko'u inaina, Aole oe e inu hou.
23 And I have put it into the hand of those afflicting you, Who have said to your soul, Bow down, and we pass over, And you make your body as the earth, And as the street to those passing by!”
Aka, e waiho aku au ia mea iloko o ka lima o ka poe hookaumaha ia oe, O ka poe i olelo ia oe, E moe ilalo, i hele aku makou maluna ae; A ua hoomoe oe i kou kua e like me ka lepo, Me he alanui la hoi, no ka poe i hele ae.
