Deuteronomy 32
1 'Give ear, O heavens, and I speak; And thou dost hear, O earth, sayings of my mouth!
E HALIU i ka pepeiao, e na lani, na'u e na lani, na'u e oleo aku; E hoolohe mai, e ka honua, i na olelo a kuu waha.
2 Drop as rain doth My doctrine; Flow as dew doth My sayings; As storms on the tender grass, And as showers on the herb,
E haule iho kuu ao ana e like me ka ua, E helelei iho ka'u olelo e like me ka hau; Me ka ua liilii hoi maluna o ka launahele hou, A me ka ua nui maluna o ka weuweu;
3 For the Name of Jehovah I proclaim, Ascribe ye greatness to our God!
No ka mea, e hai aku au i ka inoa o Iehova, E hoomana aku oukou i ko kakou Akua.
4 The Rock! — perfect [is] His work, For all His ways [are] just; God of stedfastness, and without iniquity: Righteous and upright [is] He.
Oia ka Pohaku, ua hemolele kana hana ana; He pono hoi kona mau aoao a pau: He Akua olelo oiaio, aole ona hewa, He pono, he pololei hoi ia.
5 It hath done corruptly to Him; Their blemish is not His sons', A generation perverse and crooked!
Ua hana ino lakou, aole noho i keiki nana, Oia ko lakou kina: He hanauna ino lakou, a me ka lanwili.
6 To Jehovah do ye act thus, O people foolish and not wise? Is not He thy father — thy possessor? He made thee, and doth establish thee.
Pela anei oukou e hoihoi aku ai ia Iehova, E ka poe kanaka hawawa, a me ka naaupo? Aole anei ia o kou Makua, nana oe i kuai? Aole anei ia i hana mai ia oe, a i hookupaa ia oe?
7 Remember days of old — Understand the years of many generations — Ask thy father, and he doth tell thee; Thine elders, and they say to thee:
E hoomanao i na manawa kahiko, E noonoo i na makahiki o na hanauna a pau: E ninau aku i kou makuakane, nana e hoike mai ia oe; I na lunakahiko ou, na lakou e hai mai ia oe.
8 In the Most High causing nations to inherit, In His separating sons of Adam — He setteth up the borders of the peoples By the number of the sons of Israel.
I ka manawa a ka Mea kiekie i puunaue ai ka aina no na lahuikanaka, I ka manawa ana i hookaawale ai na keiki a Adamu, Hoike mai ia i na palena no na kanaka, E like me ka nui o na mamo a Iseraela.
9 For Jehovah's portion [is] His people, Jacob [is] the line of His inheritance.
O ke kuleana o Iehova, kona poe kanaka ia; O Iakoba hoi kona hooilina.
10 He findeth him in a land — a desert, And in a void — a howling wilderness, He turneth him round — He causeth him to understand — He keepeth him as the apple of His eye.
Loaa oia ia ia ma ka aina nahelehele, A ma ka waonahele neoneo e uwo ana; Alakai aku la ia ia mai o a o, ao mai oia ia ia, Malama mai oia ia ia e like me ke kii onohi o kona maka.
11 As an eagle waketh up its nest, Over its young ones fluttereth, Spreadeth its wings — taketh them, Beareth them on its pinions; —
Me he aeto la e hoala ana i ko ka punana, A hoolahalahai maluna o na keiki ana, Hohola i kona mau eheu, a lawe ae la ia lakou, A kaikai aku maluna o kona mau eheu;
12 Jehovah alone doth lead him, And there is no strange god with him.
Na Iehova wale no oia i alakai aku, Aole hoi he akua e me ia.
13 He maketh him ride on high places of earth, And he eateth increase of the fields, And He maketh him suck honey from a rock, And oil out of the flint of a rock;
Hooholoholo ae la oia ia ia maluna o na wahi kiekie o ka honua, I ai iho ia i ka hua o na mahinaai, Hanai mai oia ia ia i ka meli mailoko mai o ka pohaku, I ka aila hoi mailoko mai o ka pohaku paa:
14 Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, and rams, sons of Bashan, And he-goats, with fat of kidneys of wheat; And of the blood of the grape thou dost drink wine!
Me ka bata o ka bipi, a me ka waiu hipa, A me na keikihipa momona, A me na hipakane no Basana, a me na kaokane, A me ka palaoa maikai loa; Inu iho la oe i ke kokohuawaina, i ka waina maikai.
15 And Jeshurun waxeth fat, and doth kick: Thou hast been fat — thou hast been thick, Thou hast been covered. And he leaveth God who made him, And dishonoureth the Rock of his salvation.
Aka, a momona o Iesuruna, keehi mai la ia: Ua momona oe, ua puipui, ua puni oe i ka momona: Alaila haalele ia i ke Akua, nana ia i hana, Hoowahawaha hoi i ka Pohaku o kona ola.
16 They make Him zealous with strangers, With abominations they make Him angry.
Hoolili aku lakou ia ia ma na akua e, Hoonaukiuki lakou ia ia i na mea haumia.
17 They sacrifice to demons — no god! Gods they have not known — New ones — from the vicinity they came; Not feared them have your fathers!
Mohai aku lakou na na daimonio, na mea akua ole; Na akua ike ole ia e lakou, Na mea hou, he hou ka puka ana mai, Na mea makau ole ia e na makua o oukou.
18 The Rock that begat thee thou forgettest, And neglectest God who formeth thee.
Manao ole iho la oe i ka Pohaku, nana oe i hoohanau, A hoopoina i ke Akua nana oe i hana.
19 And Jehovah seeth and despiseth — For the provocation of His sons and His daughters.
A ike mai la o Iehova, inaina mai ia, No ka hoonaukiuki mai o na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ana.
20 And He saith: I hide My face from them, I see what [is] their latter end; For a froward generation [are] they, Sons in whom is no stedfastness.
I iho la ia, E huna au i ko'u maka mai o lakou aku, E ike auanei au i ke ano o ko lakou hope: No ka mea, he hanauna ino lakou, He poe keiki aole he oiaio iloko o lakou.
21 They have made Me zealous by 'no-god,' They made Me angry by their vanities; And I make them zealous by 'no-people,' By a foolish nation I make them angry.
Hoolili mai lakou ia'u ma ka mea, aole he Akua, Hoonaukiuki mai lakou ia'u ma ko lakou mau mea lapuwale; A na'u hoi lakou e hoolili aku ma ka mea kanaka ole, E hoonaukiuki aku hoi au ia lakou ma ka lahuikanaka naaupo.
22 For a fire hath been kindled in Mine anger, And it burneth unto Sheol — the lowest, And consumeth earth and its increase, And setteth on fire foundations of mountains. (Sheol h7585)
No ka mea, ua hoaaia ke ahi e kuu inaina, A e enaena ia a hiki ilalo lilo i ka po, A e hoopau ia i ka honua a me kona hua iho, A e puhi ia i ke ahi i na kumu mauna. (Sheol h7585)
23 I gather upon them evils, Mine arrows I consume upon them.
E hoiliili au i na ino maluna iho o lakou: E pana aku au i ka'u mau pua ia lakou.
24 Exhausted by famine, And consumed by heat, and bitter destruction. And the teeth of beasts I send upon them, With poison of fearful things of the dust.
E pau auanei lakou i ka pololi, E aiia hoi lakou i ke ahi wela, a me ka make awaawa: O ka niho o na mea hihiu ka'u e hoouna aku ai maluna o lakou, A me na mea make o na nahesa o ka honua.
25 Without bereave doth the sword, And at the inner-chambers — fear, Both youth and virgin, Suckling with man of grey hair.
O ka pahikaua mawaho, a me ka makau maloko, E luku i ke keikikane, a me ke kaikamahine, I ke keiki waiu, a me ke kanaka poohina.
26 I have said: I blow them away, I cause their remembrance to cease from man;
I iho la au, E hooauhee aku au ia lakou i na pilikia, E hokai hoi au i ko lakou lono iwaena o kanaka;
27 If not — the anger of an enemy I fear, Lest their adversaries know — Lest they say, Our hand is high, And Jehovah hath not wrought all this.
Ina aole au i makau i ka inaina o ka poe enemi, O hana ku e mai ko lakou poe enemi, O olelo mai lakou, Na ko makou lima kiekie, Aole na Iehova i hana keia mau mea a pau,
28 For a nation lost to counsels [are] they, And there is no understanding in them.
No ka mea, he lahuikanaka nele i ka naauao, Aole hoi he ike maloko o lakou.
29 If they were wise — They deal wisely [with] this; They attend to their latter end:
Ina, i naauao lakou a i ike lakou i keia, A i manao lakou i ko lakou hope!
30 How doth one pursue a thousand, And two cause a myriad to flee! If not — that their rock hath sold them, And Jehovah hath shut them up?
Pehea la e alualu ai kekahi i ke tausani hookahi, A o na mea elua e hoopuehu ai i na tausani he umi, Ke ole i kuai aku ko lakou Pohaku ia lakou, Ke ole hoi i hoolilo aku o Iehova ia lakou?
31 For not as our Rock [is] their rock, (And our enemies [are] judges!)
O ko lakou pohaku, aole like ia me ko kakou Pohaku, Ma ka hooiaio ana mai o ko kakou poe enemi.
32 For of the vine of Sodom their vine [is], And of the fields of Gomorrah; Their grapes [are] grapes of gall — They have bitter clusters;
No ka mea, o ko lakou kumuwaina, he kumuwaina no Sodoma, A no na mala hoi o Gomora: O ka lakou huawaina, he huawaina make, A o na huhuiwaina a lakou, he awaawa ia:
33 The poison of dragons [is] their wine And the fierce venom of asps.
O ka lakou waina, he mea make o na moolele, A me ka mea make ino o na moonihoawa.
34 Is it not laid up with Me? Sealed among My treasures?
Aole anei i hunaia keia mea me au, A i hoopaaia iwaena pu me o'u waiwai?
35 Mine [are] vengeance and recompense, At the due time — doth their foot slide; For near is a day of their calamity, And haste do things prepared for them.
Ia'u no ka hoopai aku, a me ka hoouku: E hoopahee auanei ko lakou wawae: No ka mea, ua kokoke mai ka la e poino ai lakou, Ua lalelale mai na mea e hiki mai ana maluna o lakou.
36 For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants doth repent Himself. For He seeth — the going away of power, And none is restrained and left.
No ka mea, e hoopai auanei o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, A e minamina no ia i kana poe kauwa, Ke ike ia, ua nawaliwali ka lima, Aohe mea i paa, aohe mea i paa ole.
37 And He hath said, Where [are] their gods — The rock in which they trusted;
A e olelo mai ia, Auhea ae nei ko lakou mau akua, Ka pohaku a lakou i hilinai ai,
38 Which the fat of their sacrifices do eat, They drink the wine of their libation! Let them arise and help you, Let it be for you a hiding-place!
Ka mea i ai i ka momona o ka lakou mohai, Ka mea i inu i ka waina o ka lakou mohaiinu? E ku mai lakou e kokua mai ia oukou, A e hoomalu mai ia oukou.
39 See ye, now, that I — I [am] He, And there is no god with Me: I put to death, and I keep alive; I have smitten, and I heal; And there is not from My hand a deliverer,
E nana oukou ano, Owau, Owau no ia, Aohe akua e ae, Owau wale no: Owau ke pepehi, Owau ke hoola; Owau ke hooeha, Owau ke hoola; Aohe mea nana e hoopakele ae mai kuu lima aku.
40 For I lift up unto the heavens My hand, And have said, I live — to the age!
No ka mea, ke kaikai nei au i kuu lima ma ka lani, Me ka i iho, He ola mau loa ko'u.
41 If I have sharpened the brightness of My sword, And My hand doth lay hold on judgment, I turn back vengeance to Mine adversaries, And to those hating Me — I repay!
Ina e hookala au i kuu pahikaua huali, A e lawe kuu lima i ka hooponopono; E hoopai aku au i kuu poe enemi, E hoouku aku au i ka poe e inaina mai ia'u.
42 I make drunk Mine arrows with blood, And My sword devoureth flesh, From the blood of the pierced and captive, From the head of the freemen of the enemy.
E hooinu au i na pua a u i ke koko a ona, E ai iho kuu pahikaua i ka io; Me ke koko o ka mea i pepehiia, a me ko ka mea i pio, I ke poo hoi o na'lii o ka poe enemi.
43 Sing ye nations — [with] his people, For the blood of His servants He avengeth, And vengeance He turneth back on His adversaries, And hath pardoned His land — His people.'
E olioli oukou, e na aina, me kona poe kanaka; No ka mea, e uku auanei no ia i ke koko o kona poe kauwa, A hoopai no ia i kona poe enemi, A e hoola no ia i ka aina o kona poe kanaka.
44 And Moses cometh and speaketh all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Hoshea son of Nun;
Hele mai o Mose a hai aku i na pepeiao o kanaka i na huaolelo a pau o keia mele, oia a me Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna.
45 and Moses finisheth to speak all these words unto all Israel,
A hoopau ae la o Mose i ka olelo ana aku i keia mau olelo a pau i ka Iseraela a pau.
46 and saith unto them, 'Set your heart to all the words which I am testifying against you to-day, that ye command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law,
I aku la ia ia lakou, E noonoo pono ko oukou naau i na olelo a pau a'u e hoike aku nei ia oukou i keia la; oia ka oukou e kauoha aku ai i na keiki a oukou e malama, e hana hoi i na olelo a pau o keia kanawai.
47 for it [is] not a vain thing for you, for it [is] your life, and by this thing ye prolong days on the ground whither ye are passing over the Jordan to possess it.'
Aole keia he mea lapuwale no oukou, no ka mea, o ko oukou ola keia; a ma keia mea e hooloihi ai oukou i na la ma ka aina, kahi a oukou e hele aku nei i kela kapa o Ioredane e noho.
48 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in this self-same day, saying,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose ia la no, i mai la.
49 'Go up unto this mount Abarim, mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, which [is] on the front of Jericho, and see the land of Canaan which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession;
E pii aku oe i keia kuahiwi, i Abarima, ma ka puu o Nebo, ma ka aina o Moaba, e ku pono ana i Ieriko, a e nana i ka aina o Kanaana, a'u e haawi aku nei i wahi e noho ai no na mamo a Iseraela;
50 and die in the mount whither thou art going up, and be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother hath died in the mount Hor, and is gathered unto his people:
A e make oe ma ke kuahiwi, kahi au e pii aku ai, a e hui pu ia oe me kou poe kanaka, e like me ka make ana o Aarona kou kaikuaana, a hui pu ia oia me kona poe kanaka.
51 'Because ye trespassed against me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribath-Kadesh, the wilderness of Zin — because ye sanctified Me not in the midst of the sons of Israel;
No ka mea, ua hana hewa olua ia'u iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela ma ka wai o Meriba, ma Kadesa, i ka waonahele o Zina; i ko olua hoano ole mai ia'u mawaena o na mamo a Iseraela.
52 but over-against thou seest the land, and thither thou dost not go in, unto the land which I am giving to the sons of Israel.'
E ike no nae oe i ka aina, aka, aole oe e hele aku ilaila, i ka aina a'u e haawi aku nei i na mamo a Iseraela.
