Micah 7
1 Misery is mine. Indeed, I am like one who gathers the summer fruits, as gleanings of the vineyard: There is no cluster of grapes to eat. My soul desires to eat the early fig.
A UWE ia'u! no ka mea, ua like au me ka ohi ai ana o ke kau, E like me na koena huawaina o ka ohi ana: Aohe huhui e ai ai; makemake iho la kuu naau i ka hua fiku mua.
2 The faithful have vanished from the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.
Ua nalo ka mea lokomaikai mai ka aina aku: Aohe mea pono iwaena o na kanaka; Ke hoohalua nei lakou a pau no ke koko: Hoohei iho lakou, o kela mea keia mea i kona hoahanau, i ka upena.
3 Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler and judge ask for a bribe; and the powerful man dictates the evil desire of his soul. Thus they conspire together.
Hana hewa ikaika hoi lakou me na lima; Noi aku ka luna, a me ka lunakanawai i uku: A o ke kanaka nui, oia ke hoike aku i ka makemake o kona naau; Pela no lakou e huikau ai ia mea.
4 The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
O ka mea maikai o lakou ua like me ka laau ooi; A o ka mea pono, ua oioi ia mamua o ka palaau oioi. O ka la o kou poe kiai, a o kou hoopai ana, e hiki mai no ia; Ano e hiki mai ai ko lakou popilikia.
5 Do not trust in a neighbor. Do not put confidence in a friend. With the woman lying in your embrace, be careful of the words of your mouth.
Mai hilinai oukou i ka makamaka, Mai paulele i ka hoalauna: E hoopaa i ka puka o kou waha mai ka mea e moe ana ma kou poli.
6 For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
No ka mea, hoowahawaha ke keikikane i kona makuakane, Ku e mai ke kaikamahine i kona makuwahine, O ka hunonawahine i kona makuahunowaiwahine, O na enemi o ke kanaka, o na kanaka no ia o kona hale iho.
7 But as for me, I will look to Jehovah. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
A e nana aku au ia Iehova: E kali aku au i ke Akua o kuu ola; E hoolohe mai ko'u Akua ia'u.
8 Do not rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, Jehovah will be a light to me.
Mai hauoli oe maluna o'u, e ko'u enemi: No ka mea, a i haule iho au, e ala hou ae no: A i noho au i ka pouli, o Iehova ka malamalama no'u.
9 I will bear the indignation of Jehovah, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case, and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light. I will see his righteousness.
E hoomanawanui no au i ka inaina o Iehova, No ka mea, ua hana hewa no au ia ia, A hoapono mai ia i ka'u mea, A e hoopai aku no ia no'u; A lawe mai no ia ia'u iwaho i ka malamalama, A e ike aku au i kona pono.
10 Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, where is Jehovah your God? Then my enemy will see me and will cover her shame. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.
A e ike kou enemi ia mea, A e uhi mai ka hilahila i ka mea i olelo mai ai ia'u, Auhea o Iehova kou Akua? E ike auanei ko'u mau maka ia ia: Ano e hehiia oia ilalo, e like me ka lepo o na alanui.
11 A day to build your walls; in that day, he will extend your boundary.
I ka la e hanaia'i kou mau papohaku, Ia la e lawe loa ia'ku ke kanawai.
12 In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
Ia la e hele mai ia i ou la mai Asuria mai, a i Aigupita, A mai Aigupita a ka muliwai, A mai ke kai a ke kai, A mai ka mauna a ka mauna.
13 Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings.
Aka, e lilo ka aina i neoneo no ka poe e noho ana iloko, A no ka hua o ka lakou mau hana.
14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest, in the midst of fertile pasture land, let them feed; in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
E hanai oe i kou poe kanaka me kou kookoo, Ka poe o kou hooilina, ka poe e noho mehameha ana ma ka ululaau, iwaena o Karemela: E ai lakou ma Basana, a ma Gileada, e like me ka manawa kahiko.
15 "As in the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things."
E like me na la o kou puka ana, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, E hoike aku au ia ia i na mea kupanaha.
16 The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
E ike mai na lahuikanaka, a e hilahila no ko lakou ikaika a pau; A e kau lakou i ka lima maluna o ka waha, E kuli hoi ko lakou mau pepeiao.
17 They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling creatures of the earth they shall come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to Jehovah our God, and will be afraid because of you.
E palu lakou i ka lepo me he nahesa la, E kolo lakou mai ka lakou mau lua mai, e like me na mea kolo o ka honua, E weliweli lakou ia Iehova ko kakou Akua, A e makau lakou nou.
18 Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
Owai la ke Akua e like me oe, e kala ana i ka hewa, A e maalo ae ana i ka hala o ke koena o kona hooilina? Aole ia e hoomau loa aku i kona inaina, No ka mea, ke makemake nei no ia i ke aloha.
19 He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
E hoi hou mai no ia, a e aloha mai no ia ia kakou; A hehi ilalo no ia i ko kakou mau hewa; A e hoolei aku oe i ko lakou hewa a pau iloko o ka hohonu o ke kai.
20 You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
A e haawi mai no oe i ka oiaio ia Iakoba, a me ka lokomaikai ia Aberahama, Ka mea au i hoohiki ai i ko makou mau kupuna mai ka wa kahiko mai.
