< Isaiah 34 >

1 Come near ye nations to hear, And, ye races, attend, —Let the earth hear, and the fulness thereof, The world and all things produced therefrom:
E HOOKOKOKE mai, e ko na aina, i lohe oukou, E hoolohe mai hoi, e na lahuikanaka, E haliu mai hoi ko ka honua, A me kolaila mea a pau e piha ai, O ke ao nei, a me kona mea ulu a pau.
2 That Yahweh hath wrath against all the nations, and indignation against all their host, —He hath devoted them to destruction He hath delivered them to slaughter;
No ka mea, maluna o na lahuikanaka a pau ka inaina o Iehova, A o kona ukiuki hoi maluna o ko lakou lehulehu a pau; Ua molia oia ia lakou, Ua haawi oia ia lakou i ka make.
3 And their slain shall be cast out, And their carcases, the stench of them shall ascend, —And, the mountains, shall melt away with their blood.
E kiolaia'ku no ko lakou poe i houia, A e pii aku no ka pilau o ko lakou kupapau, A e hooheheeia na kuahiwi i ko lakou koko.
4 Then shall be dissolved all the host of the heavens, And the heavens shall roll up as a scroll, —Yea, all their host, shall fade—Like the fading and falling of a leaf from a vine, and Like what fadeth and falleth from a fig-tree.
E hookii loa aku no na mea a pau o ka lani, A e owili pu ia na lani me he pepa la; E haule no kolaila mau mea a pau ilalo, E like me ka haule ana o ka lau o ke kumuwaina, E like hoi me ka haule ana o ka hua mimino o ka laau fiku.
5 For my sword hath been sated in the heavens, —Lo! upon Edom, shall it descend, Even on the people whom I have devoted to justice.
No ka mea, ua inu no ka'u pahikaua ma ka lani a ona; Aia hoi, e iho ana ia maluna o Edoma, Maluna hoi o ka lahuikanaka a'u i hoolilo ai no ka hoopaiia.
6 A sword, hath Yahweh—Glutted with blood Sated with fat, —With the blood of well-fed lambs and he-goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams, —For, a sacrifice, hath Yahweh in Bozrah, Yea a great slaughter in the land of Edom;
Ua ana ka pahikaua o Iehova i ke koko, Ua hapalaia i ke kaikea, I ke koko hoi o na keikihipa momona, a me na kaokane, I ke kaikea hoi ma na puupaa o na hipakane, No ka mea, he mohai ko Iehova ma Bozera, A he luku nui hoi ma ka aina o Edoma.
7 Then shall buffaloes come down with them, And bullocks with bulls, —So shall their land be soaked with blood, And, their dust, with fat, shall be enriched.
E haule pu na reema me lakou, A me na bipikane, a me na mea ikaika; A e ona no ko lakou aina i ke koko, A momona no hoi ko lakou lepo i ke kaikea.
8 For a day of avenging, hath Yahweh, —A year of requitals for the quarrel of Zion.
No ka mea, o ka la no ia o ko Iehova koopai ana, O ka makahiki hoi o ka hoouku ana no na hakaka o Ziona.
9 Then shall the torrents thereof be turned into pitch, And the dust thereof, into brimstone, —So shall her land become burning pitch:
E lilo no kolaila muliwai i kepau, A o kolaila lepo hoi i luaipele; A e lilo no kolaila aina i kepau e a ana.
10 Neither night nor day, shall it be quenched, To times age-abiding, shall ascend the smoke thereof, —From generation to generation, shall it be waste, Never, never, shall any pass through it:
Aole ia e hoopioia i ka po, aole i ko ao; A e punohu mau loa aku no kona uwahi; E waiho kaha wale ia no ia, mai keia hanauna, a ia hanaua aku, Aohe mea e hele mawaena olaila a hiki i ka manawa pau ole.
11 That the vomiting pelican and the bittern may possess it: And the great owl and the raven, dwell therein; Then will he stretch out over it The line of desolation, and The plummet of emptiness.
E komo no malaila ka pelikana, a me ke kipoda; A malaila no hoi e noho ai ka pueo, a me ke koraka; A e hoomoe oia maluna ona i kaula o ka neoneo; A me na pohaku o ka olohelohe.
12 Her nobles (but none, are, there)! unto royalty, will call, —All, all her princes, shall become nought.
Aole e hea hou ia na'lii malaila no ko aupuni, A e lilo no kona poe luna a pau i mea ole.
13 Then shall come up, in her palaces thorns Nettles and thistles in her fortresses, —And she shall become A home for wild dogs, An enclosure for ostriches;
E ulu no ke kakalaioa maloko o kona mau halealii; O ka nahelemaneo, a me ka laau ooi ma kona mau pakaua, A e lilo no ia i wahi no na ilio hihiu, I wahi noho hoi no na iana.
14 Then shall criers meet with howlers, And, the shaggy creature, unto his fellow, shall call, —Only, there, shall, the night-spectre, Make her settlement, And find for herself a place of rest:
E halawai no na ilio hihiu o ka waonahele me na iliohae, A malaila no o hea aku ai ke kao hihiu i kona hoa, A malaila no hoi e noho ai ka lapu o ka po, A e loaa hoi kahi hoomaha nona.
15 There, shall, the arrow-snake, Make her nest and lay, And hatch and gather under her shadow, —Only, there, shall be gathered the falcons, every one with her mate.
Malaila no e hana'i ka moolele i kona punana, A hanau, a hoomoe, a hoopunana malalo o kona malu; Malaila no hoi e akoakoa ai na vuletura, O kela mea keia mea, me kona hoa.
16 Seek ye out of the scroll of Yahweh, and read, Not, one from among them, is lacking, None, hath missed, her mate, —For, a mouth, hath, itself commanded, And, his spirit, hath itself gathered them:
E imi oukou ma ka palapala a Iehova, a e heluhelu no hoi; Aole e haule kekahi o keia mau mea, Aole e nele kekahi i kona hoa; No ka mea, ua olelo no ko'u waha, A na kona Uhane no lakou i hoiliili.
17 Yea he himself, hath cast for them a lot, And his own hand, hath given to them a portion by line, —Unto times age-abiding, shall they possess it, To generation after generation, shall they dwell therein.
Ua hailona oia no lakou, A ua puunaue aku oia ia wahi ma ke kaula no lakou; E lilo loa aku no ia aina no lakou, E noho no lakou malaila, ia hanauna aku, a ia hanauna aku.
