< Daniel 9 >
1 [Now I am going to tell you about what happened] when Darius, who was from the Mede people-group and who was the son of Xerxes, ruled as the King of Babylonia.
I KA makahiki mua o Dariu ke keiki a Ahasuero, no ka ohana a Media, ka mea i hooliloia i alii maluna o ke aupuni o ka poe Kaledea;
2 During the first year that he was the king, I, Daniel, was studying/reading the [holy] books/Scriptures the message that Yahweh had given to the prophet Jeremiah. In that message Jeremiah had written that Jerusalem would [be destroyed and] remain ruined for seventy years.
I ka makahiki mua o kona alii ana, ike iho la au, o Daniela nei, iloko o na buke, i ka helu ana o na makahiki ma ka olelo ana mai a Ieho va ia Ieremia i ke kaula, i hoopauia mai ai na makahiki he kanahiku o ko Ierusalema lukuia ana.
3 [After I read that], I pleaded to Yahweh my God [to help us], praying and (fasting/abstaining from eating food). [While doing that, I was wearing] rough cloth and [sitting in] ashes [to show that I was very sad about what was going to happen to us].
A haliu aku la au i ko'u maka i ka Haku i ke Akua e imi aku ma ka pule, a me ka nonoi ana, me ka hookeai, a me ke kapa ino, a me ka lehuahi:
4 I confessed [the sins that we had committed], and [this is what I] prayed: Lord, you are great and awesome! You have faithfully done what you said that you would do for us. You faithfully love those who love you and who do what you have commanded [that they should do].
A pule aku la au ia Iehova i ko'u Akua, me ka hai aku i ko'u hewa, a me ka i aku, E ka Haku, ke Akua nui, a me ka weliweli, ka mea nana i malama i ka berita, a me ke aloha i ka poe i aloha aku ia ia, a me ka poe i malama i kona mau kanawai;
5 But we [Israelis] have sinned. We have done things that are wrong. We have done wicked things, and we have rebelled [against you]. We have turned away from [obeying] your commands [DOU].
Ua lawehala makou, a ua hana hewa hoi, me ka hana ino wale aku, a me ke kipi aku no hoi, ma ka haalele ana i kau mau kauoha, a me kou mau kanawai:
6 Your prophets spoke for you [MTY], [giving your messages to] kings, to our other rulers, to our [other] ancestors, and to all the Israeli people, but we have refused to (pay attention to/heed) those prophets.
Aole makou i hoolohe i kau poe kauwa, i na kaula, ka poe nana i olelo mai ma kou inoa i ko makou poe alii, a me ko makou poe kaukaualii, a me ko makou mau makua, a me na kanaka a pau o ka aina.
7 Lord, you always do what is righteous/just/fair, but we have caused ourselves to be ashamed [IDM]. This is [still] true about all of the Israelis who live in Jerusalem and who live in other places in Judea. It is [also] true about all us Israelis whom you scattered, who [were taken to] other countries, some near [Israel] and some far away, because we were very unfaithful/disloyal to you.
E ka Haku e, ia oe no ka pono; aka, ia makou no ka hilahila o ka maka, e like me ia i keia la; i na kanaka o Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema poe, a me ka Iseraela a pau, ka poe ma kahi kokoke, a ma kahi mamao aku, a ma na aina a pau kahi au i kipaku ai ia lakou no ka hala a lakou i lawehala aku ai ia oe.
8 Lord, we and our kings and our other rulers and our [other] ancestors have done very shameful things and have sinned against you.
E ka Haku ia makou no ka hilahila o ka maka, i ko makou poe alii, a i ko makou poe kaukaualii, a i ko makou poe makua hoi, no ka mea, ua hana hewa makou ia oe.
9 Although we have rebelled against you, you act mercifully [toward us] and you [are willing/ready] to forgive us.
I ka Haku ko makou Akua ke aloha, a me ke kala i na hala; ua kipi aku no nae makou ia ia;
10 Yahweh our God, when you gave your laws to your prophets who served you, and they told us to conduct our lives according to those laws, we did not (listen to/heed) you.
Aole hoi makou i hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova, ko makou Akua, e hele ma kona mau kanawai, na mea ana i hai mai ai imua o makou ma kana poe kauwa o na kaula.
11 All [of us] Israeli people have disobeyed your laws, and we have turned away from [obeying] what you said. We have sinned against you. As a result, [you] have caused us to experience the terrible things that your servant Moses said/wrote [would happen to us] if we sinned against you.
Oiaio, ua lawehala ka Iseraela a pau i kou kanawai ma ka haalele ana, a me ka malama ole ana i kou leo; no ia mea, ua nininiia mai ka poino maluna o makou, a me ka hoohiki i kakauia ma ke kanawai ia Mose, ke kauwa a ke Akua, no ka mea, ua hana hewa makou ia ia.
12 You warned us and our rulers that you would punish Jerusalem severely by causing a great disaster there, a disaster that would be worse than any disaster that any other city had ever experienced, and you have done what you said that you would do.
A ua hooko mai oia i ka olelo ana i olelo ku e mai ai ia makou, a me ko makou poe lunakanawai, ka poe nana makou i hookolokolo mai, i kona hooili ana maluna o makou i ka poino nui; no ka mea, aohe hana malalo iho o ka lani a puni e like me ka mea i hanaia maluna o Ierusalema.
13 [You] punished us just like Moses wrote [that you would do]. But, Yahweh our God, we still have not tried, by turning away from our sinning and by heeding your truth, to persuade you to act mercifully toward us.
E like me ka mea i palapalaia ma ke kanawai ia Mose, ua hiki mai keia poino a pau maluna o makou; aole nae makou i pule aku imua o Iehova ko makou Akua, i huli makou mai ko makou hewa aku, a i ike i kou oiaio.
14 So, because we did not obey you, you prepared to punish us, and [then] you did punish us, because you always do what is righteous/just/fair.
No ia mea, ua nana o Iehova i ka poino, a hooili mai maluna o makou; no ka mea, ua pono o Iehova ko makou Akua ma ka hana a pau ana i hana'i; no ka mea, aole makou i hoolohe aku i kona leo.
15 O Lord our God, you brought your people out of Egypt by your great power [MTY], and by doing that you have caused people from that time until the present time to know that you are great [IDM] [even though] we have sinned and done wicked things.
Ano, e ka Haku, e ko makou Akua e, ka mea nana e hoopuka mai i kou poe kanaka mai ka aina o Aigupita mai me ka lima kakauha, a hookaulana oe i kou inoa e like me ia i keia la; ua hewa makou, a ua hana ino aku no hoi makou
16 Lord, Jerusalem is your city, and [your temple was built there] on your sacred hill. Now all the people who live in nearby [countries/nations] despise Jerusalem and [us] your people because of our sins and because of the evil things that our ancestors did. But [now], because you do what is righteous/just, [we ask you to] not be angry with Jerusalem any longer.
E ka Haku e, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e like me kou pono a pau, e hoohuliia'ku kou huhu, a me kou ukiuki mai kou kulanakauhale o Ierusalema aku, mai kou mauna hoano aku; no ka mea, no ko makou hewa, a no ka hala o ko makou poe makua, ua lilo o Ierusalema a me kou poe kanaka i mea hoowahawahaia o na mea a pau a puni makou.
17 O Lord our God, listen to what I am praying and pleading [for you to do]. (For your own sake/In order that people will know that you are very great), act kindly [IDM] concerning your temple, which was destroyed [by the armies of Babylonia].
Ano, e ko makou Akua, e hoolohe mai i ka pule a kau kauwa, a me kona noi ana no ka Haku, a e haliu oluolu mai i kou maka maluna o kou hale hoano i hooneoneoia'i.
18 My God, listen [to my prayer]. Look [at us] and see our troubles, and see that this city that belongs to you [MTY] has been ruined/destroyed. We are praying to you because you are merciful, not because we have done what is right/good.
E ko'u Akua, e haliu mai i kou pepeiao, a e hoolohe mai; e wehe i kou mau maka, a e nana mai i ko makou poino, a me ke kulanakauhale i kapaia ma kou inoa; no ka mea, aole pule aku makou imua ou no ko makou pono, aka, no kou aloha nui mai no.
19 Lord, listen [to us]! Lord, forgive us! Lord, this city and these people belong to you, so [we plead with you to] heed what we are saying and act [to help us] right now, (for your own sake/in order that people will know that you are very great)!
E ka Haku e, e hoolono mai; e ka Haku e, e kala mai; e ka Haku e, e hoolohe mai, a e hana hoi; mai kakali, no kou pono iho no, e ko'u Akua: no kou kulanakauhale a me kou poe i kapaia ma kou inoa.
20 I continued praying and confessing the sins that my people and I had committed, and pleading with Yahweh my God that he would restore [the temple on] the sacred hill [in Jerusalem].
A i ka'u olelo ana, a me ka'u pule ana, a me ko'u hai ana i ko'u hewa, a me ka hewa o ko'u poe o ka Iseraela, a i ko'u noi ana imua o Iehova ko'u Akua no ka mauna hoano o ko'u Akua;
21 While I was praying, Gabriel, the angel/one whom I had seen in the vision previously, came flying rapidly to me, at the time in the evening when [the priests] offered sacrifices.
Oiaio, i ka'u olelo ana ma ka pule, o ke kanaka o Gaberiela, ka mea a'u i ike ai mamua ma ka hihio, ua hooholo mama ia mai oia, a hoopa mai ia'u i ka manawa o ka mohai ahiahi:
22 He said to me, “Daniel, I have come to you to enable you to understand [DOU] clearly [the message that God gave to Jeremiah].
A hoakaka mai la oia ia'u, a kamailio pu me au, i mai, E Daniela, ua hele mai nei au e haawi ia oe i ke akamai, a me ka naauao.
23 When you began to plead [with God], he gave me a message [to pass on to you]. He loves you very much, so [he has sent me] to tell you what he said to me. So [now] (pay attention/listen carefully) in order that you may understand the meaning of what he revealed [to Jeremiah].
Ma ka hoomaka ana o kou noi, i puka mai ai ke kauoha, a ua hele mai hoi au e hoakaka ia oe; no ka mea, o oe ke kanaka i aloha nui ia; no ia mea, e ike oe i ka mea, a e noonoo oe i ka hihio.
24 [God] has determined/declared that there will be 490 years until he frees/saves your people from [the guilt of] their sins and to atone for the evil things that they have done. Then [God] will rule everyone justly, and he will do that forever. And [what you saw in] the vision and what [Jeremiah] prophesied will (come true/be fulfilled), and the sacred temple will be dedicated [to God again].
Ua hoopaaia maluna o kou poe kanaka he kanahiku hebedoma, a maluma o kou kulanakauhale hoano, e hoopauia ka hewa, a e hoopauia hoi na hala, a e hookalaia mai ka ino, a e hookomo mai i ka pono mau, a e hooko i ka hihio, a me ka mea i wananaia, a e poni i ka Mea hemolele loa.
25 You need to know and understand this: There will be 49 years from the time that [the king] commands that Jerusalem should be rebuilt until the leader/king that God has chosen will come. Then 434 years later, Jerusalem will be rebuilt, and it will have streets and will have a (moat/deep ditch filled with water) around it [to protect the city]. But that will be a time when [God’s people] will have [a lot of] troubles/difficulties/suffering.
E ike oe, a e noonoo hoi, mai ka puka ana mai o ke kauoha e hoihoi, a e kukulu ia Ierusalema, a hiki aku i ka Mesia, ke Alii, ehiku ia hebedoma, a he kanaono a me kumamalua hebedoma; alaila e kukulu hou ia na alanui, a me ka pa, i na manawa popilikia no.
26 After those 434 years, the leader/king whom God has appointed will be killed [when it seems that] he will have accomplished nothing (unjustly/without having done anything wrong). After that, the temple will be destroyed by [the army of] a powerful ruler. The city and the temple will be destroyed like a flood [MET] [destroys everything]. That will be the beginning of the war and destruction that [God] has decreed [will happen].
A mahope iho o ua mau hebedoma la he kanaono me kumamalua, e okiia ana ka Mesia, aole nae nona iho; a o na kanaka o ke alii ka poe e hele mai ana, e luku auanei lakou i ke kulanakauhale a me ka hale hoano; a o kona hopena me he kai hoee la, a i ka hope o ua kaua la e hoopaaia mai ka hooneoneo ana.
27 That ruler will make a strong agreement with many people. He will promise to do for seven years what he has said in that agreement. But when that time is half finished, he will prevent [priests from] giving any more offerings and sacrifices [to God]. A disgusting idol will be put on the highest part of the temple, and it will stay there until [God] gets rid of the one who put it there, which is what he said that he would do.”
A e hoopaa iho no ia i ka berita me ka lehulehu no ka hebedoma hookahi; a iwaenakonu o ua hebedoma la e hookiia na mohai, a me na mohaikuni, a maluna o ka pahalo e kau na mea haumia e hooneoneo ai a hiki i ka manawa e nininiia mai ai ka hoopai ana maluna o ka poe i luku aku.
