< Isaiah 33 >

1 Woe, spoiler! and thou not spoiled, And treacherous! and they dealt not treacherously with thee, When thou dost finish, O spoiler, thou art spoiled, When thou dost finish dealing treacherously, They deal treacherously with thee.
A UWE oe ka mea anai aku, Aole hoi oe i anaiia mai; Ka mea hao wale aku, aole nae lakou i hao mai ia oe! A pau kau anai ana aku, alaila e anaiia mai oe; A pau kou hao ana aku, alaila lakou e hao mai ai ia oe.
2 O Jehovah, favour us, for thee we have waited, Be their arm, in the mornings, Yea, our salvation in time of adversity.
E Iehova, e maliu mai oe ia makou, Ua kakali makou ia oe, E lilo no oe i mea kokua ia lakou i kakahiaka, I mea hoi e ola'i makou i ka manawa popilikia.
3 From the voice of a multitude fled have peoples, From thine exaltation scattered have been nations.
I ka leo o ka lehulehu, hee aku la na kanaka, Ia oe i ala'i iluna, hoopuehuia'ku la na lahuikanaka.
4 And gathered hath been your spoil, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts is he running on it.
E hoiliiliia no ko oukou waiwai pio, Me ko ka enuhe hoiliiliia; A e like me ka holo ana o na uhini io ia nei, Pela no ia e holo ai maluna ona,
5 Set on high is Jehovah, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,
Ua hapaiia o Iehova, no ka mea, maluna no oia e noho ana; Ua hoopiha no oia ia Ziona i ka pono a me ka maikai.
6 And hath been the stedfastness of thy times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of Jehovah — it [is] His treasure.
E lilo ana ke akamai a me ka ike, I kumu paa o kou manawa, i mea kokua ikaika hoi; O ka makau ia Iehova, oia kona waiwai malama.
7 Lo, 'Their Ariel,' they have cried without, Messengers of peace do weep bitterly.
Aia, e uwe ana ko lakou poe ikaika mawaho; E uwe walania no hoi na luna imi malu.
8 Desolated have been highways, Ceased hath he who passeth along the path, He hath broken covenant, He hath despised enemies, He hath not esteemed a man.
Ua haaleleia na alanui, Ua oki ka mea hele; Ua uhai oia i ka berita, Ua hoowahawaha oia i na kulanakauhale; Aole ia i manao i ke kanaka.
9 Mourned, languished hath the land, Confounded hath been Lebanon, Withered hath been Sharon as a wilderness, And shaking are Bashan and Carmel.
Ua uwe ka aina, ua kanikau hoi; Ua hilahila o Lebanona, ua mae wale; Ua like o Sarona me ka waonahele; Lulu iho o Basana, a me Karemela i na lau.
10 Now, do I arise, saith Jehovah, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.
Ano, e ku no owau iluna, wahi a Iehova, Ano, e hapaiia no wau, Ano la wau e hookiekieia.
11 Ye conceive chaff, ye bear stubble, Your spirit! — fire devoureth you.
E hapai auanei oukou, i mauu maloo, E hanau mai no hoi oukou, i opala. Na ko oukou hanu no e hoopau ia oukou iho me he ahi la.
12 And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, with fire they burn.
E like auanei ua lahuikanaka me ke kahu ana i ka puna: E puhiia no i ke ahi, e like me na kakalaioa i okiia.
13 Hear, ye far off, that which I have done, And know, ye near ones, My might.
E ka poe ma kahi mamao aku, E hoolohe mai oukou i ka'u hana ana; A me ka poe e kokoke mai hoi, E hoomaopopo oukou i ko'u mana.
14 Afraid in Zion have been sinners, Seized hath trembling the profane: Who doth dwell for us — consuming fire, Who doth dwell for us — burnings of the age?
Ua makau ka poe hewa ma Ziona, Ua loohia ka poe aia i ka haalulu. Owai la ka mea o kakou e hiki ke noho me ke ahi e hoopau ana? Owai la ka mea o kakou e hiki ke noho me ka wela mau loa?
15 Whoso is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,
O ka mea hele ma ka pono, a olelo hoi ma ka pololei; O ka mea hoowahawaha i ka waiwai o ka hookaumaha ana, O ka mea lulu mawaho aku o kona lima i ka waiwai i loaa ma ke kipe ana; O ka mea pani i kona mau pepeiao o lohe i ke koko, O ka mea hoopili i kona mau maka, i ike ole ia i ka hewa;
16 He high places doth inhabit, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread hath been given, his waters stedfast.
Oia ka mea e noho ana ma kahi kiekie; O na pa pohaka kona puuhonua: E haawiia no ka ai nana, a e mau ana hoi kona wai inu.
17 A king in his beauty, see do thine eyes, They see a land afar off.
E ike aku no kou mau maka i ke alii i kona nani; E ike no hoi lakou i ka aina ma kahi loihi aku.
18 Thy heart doth meditate terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?
E hoomanao ana no kou naau i ka makau i hala. Auhea ke kakauolelo? auhea hoi ka lunakaupaona? Auhea ka mea helu i na halekiai?
19 The strong people thou seest not, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.
Aole oe e ike hou aku i ka lahuikanaka ikaika, I ka lahuikanaka olelo ike ole ia, ma ka lohe ana, I ke alelo namu hoi au i hoomaopopo ole ai.
20 See Zion, the city of our meetings, Thine eyes see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, Not removed are its pins for ever, And none of its cords are broken.
E ike auanei oe ia Ziona, I ke kulanakauhale o ka kakou ahaaina ana; E ike auanei kou mau maka ia Ierusalema. He wahi noho i hoomaluia, He halelewa hoi, aole e lawe hou ia'ku; Aole e unuhiia kona mau makia a i ka manawa pau ole, Aole hoi e moku kekahi o kona mau kaula.
21 But there mighty [is] Jehovah for us, A place of rivers — streams broad of sides, No ship with oars doth go into it, And a mighty ship doth not pass over it.
Malaila io no ka nani o Iehova no kakou, He wahi muliwai nui, a akea ma na aoao a pau, Aole moku holo maloko olaila me ka hoe, Aole moku nui e holo ae a kela aoao.
22 For Jehovah our judge, Jehovah our lawgiver, Jehovah our king — He doth save us.
No ka mea, o Iehova no ko kakou lunakanawai, O Iehova ka mea kau i ke kanawai maluna o kakou, O Iehova ko kakou alii; Oia ka mea e hoola mai ai ia kakou.
23 Left have been thy ropes, They strengthen not rightly their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then apportioned hath been a prey of much spoil, The lame have taken spoil.
Ua weheia kou mau kaula, Aole hiki ia lakou ke hoopaa i ka papakukia, Aole hoi e hiki ke kau i ka hae; Alaila puunaueia ka waiwai pio nui; E hiki no i ka poe oopa ke hopu iho i ka waiwai pio.
24 Nor doth an inhabitant say, 'I was sick,' The people that is dwelling in it, is forgiven of iniquity!
Aole e olelo ka mea e noho ana, Ua mai au; O na kanaka E noho ana maloko, Ua kalaia ko lakou hewa.
