< Isaiah 6 >

1 During the year that King Uzziah died, [Yahweh showed me a vision. In the vision], I saw Yahweh sitting on a throne, high above everyone. He [was wearing a very long] robe that covered [the floor of] the temple.
I KA makahiki i make ai ke alii, o Uzia, ike aku la au i ka Haku, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii kiekie, i hapaiia, a piha ka luakini i kona hua lole.
2 Above him were standing [several] winged creatures. Each of them had six wings. They covered their faces with two of their wings, they covered their feet with two of their wings, and they flew using two of their wings.
Ku mai la maluna, ma o na la, na Serapima; he paono, he paono na eheu ia lakou a pau. Me na mea elua ia i uhi ai i kona maka, me na mea elua ia i uhi ai i kona mau wawae, a me na mea elua ia i lele ai.
3 They were calling to each other, saying, “The Commander of the armies of angels is holy; he is completely holy! The entire earth is filled with his glory.”
A hea ae la kekahi i kekahi, Ihiihi, ihiihi, ihiihi no o Iehova o na kaua. Ua piha ka honua i kona nani.
4 When they spoke, it caused the doorposts of the temple to shake, and the temple was filled with smoke.
Haalulu na paepaepuka, i ka leo o ka mea nana i hea, a piha iho la ka hale i ka uwahi.
5 Then I said, “Terrible things will happen to me, because everything that I say [MTY] is sinful, and I live among people who constantly say [MTY] sinful things. I will be destroyed because I have seen the Commander of the armies of angels!”
Alaila, olelo iho la au, Auwe au! ua make au; no ka mea, he kanaka lehelehe haumia au, a ke noho nei au iwaena o ka lahuikanaka lehelehe haumia; no ka mea, na ike ko'u mau maka i ke alii, ia Iehova o na kaua.
6 Then one of the winged creatures took a hot coal from the altar, using a pair of tongs. He flew to me
A lele mai la kekahi o na Serapima io'u nei, aia ma kona lima ka pohaku enaena, ana i lawe ai, mai ke kuahu mai, me na upa ahi.
7 and touched my lips with the coal. Then he said, “Look [at what I have done]. I have touched your lips [with this coal]. [Now] your guilt is ended, and your sins are forgiven [DOU].”
A hoopa mai la ma kuu waha, i mai la, Aia hoi, ua hoopa keia ma kou mau lehelehe, ua laweia kou hewa, ua kalaia kou hala.
8 Then I heard Yahweh asking, “Whom shall I send [to be a messenger to my people]? Who will go [and speak] for us?” I replied, “I will. Send me!”
A lohe iho la no hoi au i ka leo o ka Haku, i ka i ana mai, Iawai la wau e hoouna aku ai? A owai ka mea nana e hele no kakou? Alaila, i aku la au, Eia no wau, e hoouna ia'u.
9 Then he said, “[Okay], go, and say to the [Israeli] people, ‘You will listen carefully [to what I say], but you will not understand it. You will look very carefully [at the things that I am doing], but you will not understand them.’
I mai la ia, O hele, e olelo aku i keia poe kanaka, I ka lohe ana, e lohe no oukou, aole nae e hoomaopopo, I ka ike ana, e ike no, aole nae e akaka ka ike ana.
10 [What you(sg) say will] cause these people to become stubborn [IDM]; [it will cause them] to not be able to hear [what I say] and see [what I do]. [As a result, they will not] see [what I want them to see] or hear [what I want them to hear], and they will not understand it, and they will not turn to me and be saved [from being punished].”
E hoopalaka i ka naau o keia poe kanaka, E hookuli i ko lakou pepeiao, A e hoopaa i ko lakou maka; O ike ko lakou mau maka, A lohe hoi ko lakou mau pepeiao, A hoomaopopo ko lakou naau, A huli lakou, a hoolaia mai lakou.
11 Then I said, “How long [do you want me to continue to do that]?” He replied, “[Do it] until their cities are ruined [by their enemies], [until] no one is living in their houses, [do it until] all the crops are stolen from their fields and the fields are ruined.
Alaila, i aku la au, E ka Haku, pehea ka loihi? I mai la ia, A neoneo na kulanakauhale, aohe mea noho iloko, A kanaka ole ko lakou hale, A anai loa ia'ku ka aina,
12 [Do it] until I have (exiled everyone/forced everyone to go to their enemies’ lands) far away, and the whole land [of Israel] is deserted.
A lawe loihi aku o Iehova i na kanaka, A mahuahua ka olohelohe ana mawaenakonu o ka aina;
13 If [even] one tenth [of the people survive and] stay there, [their enemies] will [invade the land again and] burn everything. [But, just] like [MET] when an oak [tree] is cut down, a stump is left [from which new shoots will grow], the people who remain [in this land will be a group that will become large again] and be (set apart for/dedicated to) me.”
Ina i koe kekahi hapaumi o na mea, E anai loa ia'ku no ia. Aka, e like me ka laau hukaa, a me ka oka, I ka wa i kuaia, ua koe no ke kumu; Pela no e lilo ai kekahi mamo hemolele, I kumu hoolaha no lakou.
