< Isaiah 51 >

1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD: look to the rock from which ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which ye are dug.
E HOOLOHE mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe hahai i ka pono, Ka poe hoi e imi ana ia Iehova; E nana oukou ma ka pohaku, kahi a oukou i kalaiia'i, A i ka lua hoi maloko o ke ana, kahi a oukou kohiia'i.
2 Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah that bore you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.
E nana hoi ma o Aberahama la, ko oukou kupuna, Ia Sara hoi i ka mea nana oukou i hanau; No ka mea, oia hookahi ka'u i hea aku ai, A hoopomaikai aku ia ia, a hoonui aku i kana.
3 For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found in it, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
Pela no o Iehova e hoomaha mai ai ia Ziona, E hoomaha mai no i kona mau wahi neoneo a pau; A e hana no oia i kona waonahele, a like me Edena, A me kona waoakua e like me ka mahinaai a Iehova; Maloko olaila, e loaa no ka olioli a me ka hauoli, Ka hoolea ana, me ka leo o ke oli.
4 Hearken to me, my people; and give ear to me, O my nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people.
E hoolohe mai ia'u, e ko'u poe kanaka, E haliu mai ka pepeiao ia u, e ka lahuikanaka o'u; No ka mea, e laha aku no ke kanawai, mai o'u aku nei, A e hoolilo no wau i ko'u pono, i malamalama no na kanaka.
5 My righteousness is near; my salvation is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon me, and on my arm shall they trust.
Ua kokoke mai no ko'u pono, ua hele aku hoi ko'u ola, Na kuu lima no e hooponopono i kanaka; E kali no na mokupuni ia'u, a ma ko'u lima lakou e hilinai ai.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall become old like a garment, and its inhabitants shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
E alawa ae i ko oukou maka iluna a i ka lani, E nana hoi ma ka honua malalo; E holo aku auanei na lani, e like me ka uwahi, A e apulu no hoi ka honua, me he lole la, Pela no e make ai ka poe e noho ana maluna iho; Aka, e oia mau ana no ko'u ola, Aole hoi e pau ana ko'u pono.
7 Hearken to me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
E hoolohe mai oukou ia'u, e ka poe ike i ka pono, E na kanaka hoi i loaa ko'u kanawai ma ko lakou naau; Mai makau oukou i ka hoowahawaha o kanaka, Mai weliweli hoi i ka lakou olelo hoino ana.
8 For the moth shall eat them like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
No ka mea, e ai no ka mu ia lakou, me he lole la, E ai no hoi ka huhu ia lakou e like me ka hulu hipa: Aka, e mau loa ana no ko'u pono, a i ke ao pau ole, A me ko'u ola hoi, mai keia hanauna, a ia hanauna aku.
9 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not that which hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?
E ala, e ala, e aahu i ka ikaika, e ka lima o Iehova; E ala, e like me ia i na la mamua, I na hanauna kahiko loa aku hoi. Aole anei oe ka mea nana i okioki ia Rahaba? A hou iho no hoi i ka moonui?
10 Art thou not that which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deep; that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to pass over?
Aole anei oe ka mea nana i hoomaloo i ke kai? I na wai hoi o ka hohonu nui? A hoolilo hoi i na wahi hohonu o ke kai, I alanui e hele ai ka poe i hoolapanaiia?
11 Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
E hoi mai no hoi ko Iehova poe i hoolapanaiia, E hele mai no lakou i Ziona me ke oli; He hauoli mau loa maluna o ko lakou mau poo: E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli, a me ka hauoli, A e hee loa aku no ke kaumaha, a me ke kaniuhu.
12 I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man who shall be made as grass;
Owau, owau no ka mea nana oukou e hoomaha aku; Owai hoi oe, i makau aku ai oe i ke kanaka, i ka mea e make ana, A i ke keiki a ke kanaka hoi, i ka mea e lilo ana i mauu?
13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
A hoopoina hoi ia Iehova, i ka Mea nana oe i hana, A hohola ae la hoi i na lani, a hookumu i ka honua, A makau mau loa no hoi oe i na la a pau, No ka inaina o ka mea hooluhi, Ina paha ia e makaukau e luku iho? Auhea hoi ka inaina o ka mea hooluhi?
14 The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed, and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.
Wikiwiki ae la ke pio kulou, i weheia'i oia, I ole ia o make maloko o ka lua, I pau ole hoi kana berena.
15 But I am the LORD thy God, that divided the sea, whose waves roared: The LORD of hosts is his name.
Aka, owau no Iehova, kou Akua, Ka mea nana i hookupikipikio ke kai, A halulu mai la kona mau ale, O Iehova o na kaua kona inoa.
16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say to Zion, Thou art my people.
Ua hahao no wau i ko'u mau huaolelo iloko o kou waha, A ua uhi aku ia oe i ke aka o ko'u lima, Me ka makia aku i na lani, a me ka hookumu i ka honua, I olelo aku au ia Ziona, O oe no ko'u poe kanaka.
17 Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of his fury; thou hast drank the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out.
E ala e ala, e ku iluna, e Ierusalema, Ka mea i inu ma ka lima o Iehova, i ke kiaha o kona inaina; Ua inu no oe i ke kiaha bola e hikaka ai, Ua inu oe a moni loa hoi ilalo.
18 There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up.
Aole mea e alakai ia ia o na keikikane a pau ana i hanau ai; Aohe mea lalau i kona lima o na keikikane a pau ana i hanai ai a nui.
19 These two things have come to thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?
Ua hiki mai keia mau mea elua maluna ou; Owai hoi ka mea minamina ia oe? O ka neoneo a me ka make, O ka wi a me ka pahikaua; Ma owai la hoi au e hoomaha aku ai ia oe?
20 Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.
Ua maule kau mau keikikane, Ke kaa nei no ma na poo o na alanui a pau, E like me ka bipi hihiu maloko o ka upena; Ua hoopihaia lakou i ka inaina o Iehova, I ka paipai ana hoi o kou Akua.
21 Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunk, but not with wine:
Nolaila, e hoolohe mai oe i keia, e ka mea popilikia, A ona hoi, aole nae i ka waina:
22 Thus saith thy Lord Jehovah, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:
Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, kou Haku, O kou Akua hoi, nana e kokua i kona poe kanaka: Aia hoi, ua lawe au i ke kiaha e hikaka ai, mai kou lima aku, I ke kiaha bola hoi o ko'u inaina, Aole oe e inu hou.
23 But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; who have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.
Aka, e waiho aku au ia mea iloko o ka lima o ka poe hookaumaha ia oe, O ka poe i olelo ia oe, E moe ilalo, i hele aku makou maluna ae; A ua hoomoe oe i kou kua e like me ka lepo, Me he alanui la hoi, no ka poe i hele ae.
