< Isaiah 66 >
1 Thus, saith Yahweh, The, heavens, are my throne, and The earth, is my footstool: Where then is the house which ye can build me? Or where is my place of rest?
PEIA ka Iehova e olelo mai nei, O ka lani no ko'u noho alii, a o ka honua hoi ko'u keehana wawae: Auhea ka hale a oukou e hana mai ai no'u? Auhea hoi ko'u wahi e hoomaha'i?
2 For, all these things, hath mine own hand made, And all these things came into being, —Declareth Yahweh. But for this one, will I look around, For him who is humbled and smitten in spirit, And so careth anxiously for my word.
No ka mea, na ko'u lima no i hana ia mau mea a pau, A eia no hoi lakou a pau e noho la, wahi a Iehova; Aka, e nana aku au i keia, i ka mea i haahaa, a mihi hoi ma ka naau, A haalulu i ka'u olelo.
3 He that slaughtereth an ox, [is as one] who smiteth a man, He that sacrificeth a lamb, [is as one] who beheadeth a dog, he that causeth a meal-offering to ascend, offereth it with the blood of swine, He that maketh a memorial of frankincense, [is as one] who blesseth iniquity: They indeed, have chosen their own ways, And in their own abominations, their soul hath found delight;
O ka mea kalua i ka bipi, he pepehi kanaka ia, O ka mea mohai i ka hipa, hai no oia i ka a-i o ka ilio: O ka mohai makana, he koko puaa no ia; O ka mea kuni i ka mea ala, hoomaikai no oia i ke akuakii; Oia, ua koho lakou i ko lakou aoao iho, A olioli no ko lakou naau i ko lakou mea hoopailua.
4 I, also, will choose the things that vex them. And the things they dread, will I bring upon them, Because—I called and there was none to answer, I spake, and they hearkened not, —But did that which was wicked in mine eyes, And of that wherein I delighted not, made choice.
E koho no hoi au i ko lakou poino, A na'u hoi e hooili aku maluna o lakou, i ko lakou mea e weliweli ai; No ka mea, ia'u i hea aku ai, aohe mea i o mai, Ia'u i olelo aku ai, aole lakou i hoolohe: Aka, hana hewa no lakou imua o ko'u mau maka, A koho no hoi i ka mea a'u i makemake ole ai.
5 Hear the word of Yahweh, ye who care anxiously for his word: Said your brethren Who hated you. Who thrust you out for my Name’s sake, Yahweh be glorified! Therefore shall he appear to your rejoicing, But, they, shall turn pale.
E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, E ka poe haalulu i kana olelo; O ko oukou poe koahanau, ka poe i ukiuki mai ia oukou, Ka poe i kipaku aku ia oukou iwaho, no ko'u inoa, I ae la lakou, E hoonaniia o Iehova: A e ikeia no ia, i mea e hauoli ai oukou, Aka, e hilahila auanei lakou.
6 The sound of a tumult—out of the city, A sound, out of the temple, —The sound of Yahweh rendering recompense to his foes.
He leo no ka walaau, mai ke kulanakauhale mai. He leo mai ka luakini mai, ka leo o Iehova e hoopai ana i kona poe enemi.
7 Before she travaileth, she hath brought forth, —Before her pains come to her, she hath given birth to a man-child!
Mamua o kona kuakoko ana, hanau mai la oia, Mamua o ka hiki ana mai o kona nahu, Hanau mai la oia, he keikikane.
8 Who hath heard the like of this? Who hath seen the like of these things? Can a land, be made to bring forth in one day? Or a nation, be born, at one time? As soon as she travaileth, Zion hath also given birth to her children.
Owai ka mea i lohe i ka mea o like me ia? Owai ka mea i ike i na mea o like me ia? E hoohanauia mai anei ka honua i ka la hookahi? E hanau anei ka lahuikanaka ma ka minute? No ka mea, ia Ziona i kuakoko mua ai, hanau mai la no kana mau keiki.
9 Could, I, bring to the birth and not cause to bring forth? saith Yahweh. Or, I, be causing to bring forth and then prevent? Saith thy God.
E hookokoke anei au i ka hanau, aole hoi e hoohanau mai? wahi a Iehova: E hoohanau anei au, alaila papani aku? wahi a ke Akua ou.
10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and exult over her All ye who love her, —Joy with her right joyfully, All ye who used to mourn over her:
E olioli pu no oukou me Ierusalema, A e hauoli pu no hoi me ia, e ka poe a pau i aloha aku ia ia: E olioli nui loa ia ia, e ka poe a pau i kanikau ia ia.
11 That ye may draw to satisfaction out of the fountain of her consolations, —That ye may drain out and get exquisite delight from the abundance of her glory.
I omo oukou, a maona hoi ma ka puu waiu o kona hoomaha ana, I uwi aku oukou, a olioli i ka nui o kona nani.
12 For, thus, saith Yahweh, —Behold me! extending unto her like a river, prosperity, And as a torrent o’erflowing, the glory of the nations. That ye may draw it forth—Upon the side, shall ye be carried, and Upon the knees, shall ye be caressed:
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e hohola aku no au i ka malu maluna ona, me he muliwai la, A i ka nani o ko na aina, e like me ka wai kahe e halana ana; Alaila, e omo no oukou, e kaikaiia hoi ma ka aoao, A e hiiia hoi ma na kuli.
13 As one whom, his mother, consoleth, So, will, I, console you, And in Jerusalem, shall ye be consoled.
E like me ka mea a kona makuwahine i hoomaha ai, Pela no wau e hoomaha aku ai ia oukou, A e hoomahaia oukou ma o Ierusalema la.
14 As soon as ye have seen it, your heart, shall be joyful, And your bones, like green herbage, shall thrive, —So shall be known The hand of Yahweh with his servants, But indignation with his foes!
A ike oukou ia, e olioli no ko oukou naau, A e ulu no ko oukou mau iwi, e like me ka laalaau: A e ikeia auanei ka lima o Iehova, maluna o kana poe kauwa, A me kona ukiuki maluna o kona poe enemi.
15 For lo! Yahweh, with fire, doth come, And like a storm-wind, [are] his chariots, —To render with fury, his anger, And his rebuke with flames of fire.
No ka mea, aia hoi, e hele mai no o Iehova me ke ahi, A me kona mau kaakaua, e like me ka puahiohio, E hoihoi mai i kona huhu me ka ukiuki, A me kona papa ana, me na lapalapa o ke ahi.
16 For, by fire, will Yahweh enter into judgment, And by his sword, with all flesh, —And many shall be the slain of Yahweh.
No ka mea, me ke ahi no, a me kana pahikaua, E hakaka'i o Iehova me na mea io a pau: A e nui loa auanei ka poe a Iehova e pepehi ai.
17 They who hallow themselves and purify themselves for the gardens, Behind a certain thing in the midst, Who eat the flesh of swine and the abomination, and the mouse, Together, shall be cut off—Declareth Yahweh.
O ka poe hoano ia lakou iho, a hoomaemae ia lakou iho ma na mahinaai, Mahope o kekahi mawaena, e ai ana i ka io o ka puaa, a me ka mea e hoopailua ai a me ka iole; E make pu no lakou, wahi a Iehova.
18 Because, I, …for their works and their devices, doth it come! …Am about to gather together all nations and tongues, —So shall they come and see my glory.
A e ike auanei au i ka lakou hana, a me ko lakou manao; No ka mea, e hoakoakoaia ko na aina a pau, a me ka poe olelo e, A e hele mai no lakou, a e ike i ko'u nani.
19 Then will I set among them, a sign, And will send, of them such as have escaped unto the nations—Tarshish Pul and Lud that draw the bow, Tubal and Javan, —The Coastlands that are afar off, Who have not heard my fame Nor seen my glory, And they shall tell my glory throughout the nations.
A e kau no wau i ka ouli no lakou, A o ka poe o lakou e pakele, e hoouna aku au ia lakou i na aina e, I Taresisa, i Pula, a i Luda, na mea i lena i ke kakaka; I Tubala hoi, a i Iavana, a i na aina loihi e aku, Ka poe i lohe ole i kuu kaulana, aole hoi i ike i ko'u nani; A na lakou no e hai i ko'u nani iwaena o ko na aina e.
20 Then shall they bring in all your brethren out of all the nations, As a present unto Yahweh, Upon horses and in chariots and in palanquins and on mules and on dromedaries Unto my holy mountain—Jerusalem, saith Yahweh, —Just as the sons of Israel, bring in their present in a pure vessel, into the house, of Yahweh.
A e lawe mai no lakou i ko oukou poe hoahanau a pau, Mai loko mai o na aina a pau, i mohai no Iehova, Maluna o na lio, a maloko o na kaakaua, a ma na manele, A ma na hoki, a me na kamelo mama, a i ko'u mauna hoano i Ierusalema, wahi a Iehova; E like me na mamo a Iseraela i lawe mai ai i ka mohai maloko o ka ipu maemae, A i ka hale o Iehova.
21 And of them also, will I take for priests—for Levites, saith Yahweh,
A e lawe no wau, noloko o lakou, i mau kahuna, a i poe lawelawe, e like me na Levi, wahi a Iehova.
22 For, as the new heavens and the new earth, which I am about to make, are to remain before me, Declareth Yahweh, So, shall remain your seed and your name.
No ka mea, e like me na lani hou, a me ka houna hou a'u e hana'i, e mau lakou imua o'u, wahi a Iehova, Pela no e mau ai ka oukou poe keiki, a me ko oukou inoa.
23 And it shall come to pass, that From one new moon to another, and From one sabbath to another, Shall all flesh, come in, to bow down before me, Saith Yahweh.
A mai kekahi mahina hou, a i kekahi mahina hou, A mai kekahi sabati, a i kekahi sabati, E hele mai no na mea io a pau e hoomana imua o'u, wahi a Iehova.
24 Then shall they go forth and look upon the dead bodies of the men who had been trespassing against me—For, their worm, shall not die, And, their fire, shall not be quenched; So shall they become an abhorrence to all flesh.
A e puka aku no lakou iwaho, a e nana iho i na kupapau o na kanaka i kipi mai ia'u: No ka mea, aole e make ko lakou ilo, Aole e pio ko lakou ahi, A e lilo no lakou i mea hoopailua no na mea io a pau.
