Isaiah 35
1 They joy from the wilderness and dry place, And rejoice doth the desert, and flourish as the rose,
E OLIOLI auanei ka waonahele, a me kahi maloo no ia mau mea; E hauoli hoi ka waoakua, a e pua mai hoi, e like me ka lilia.
2 Flourishing it doth flourish, and rejoice, Yea, [with] joy and singing, The honour of Lebanon hath been given to it, The beauty of Carmel and Sharon, They — they see the honour of Jehovah, The majesty of our God.
E pua nui no ia, a e hauoli hoi me ka olioli, a me ka hauoli; E haawiia'ku ka nani o Lebanona ia ia, A me ka maikai o Karemela, a me Sarona; E ike auanei lakou i ka nani o Iehova, A me ka hanohano o ko kakou Akua.
3 Strengthen ye the feeble hands, Yea, the stumbling knees strengthen.
E hooikaika oukou i na lima nawaliwali, A e hookupaa i na kuli kulanalana.
4 Say to the hastened of heart, 'Be strong, Fear not, lo, your God; vengeance cometh, The recompence of God, He Himself doth come and save you.'
E olelo aku oukou i ka poe makau o ka naau, I nui ka ikaika, mai makau oukou; Aia hoi ko oukou Akua! E hele mai no ia e hoopai, o ke Akua hoi me ka hoouku; E hele mai no oia, a e hoola ia oukou.
5 Then opened are eyes of the blind, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,
Alaila, e hookaakaaia na maka o ka poe makapo, A e hoohakahakaia na pepeiao o ka poe kuli.
6 Then leap as a hart doth the lame, And sing doth the tongue of the dumb, For broken up in a wilderness have been waters, And streams in a desert.
Alaila, e lelele no ka oopa me he dia la, A e oli hoi ke alelo o ka leo paa: No ka mea, e puka mai no ka wai ma ka waonahele, A me na muliwai hoi ma ka waoakua.
7 And the mirage hath become a pond, And the thirsty land fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of couching down, a court for reed and rush.
E lilo no ka lepo olinolino i waiauau, A me kahi maloo, i waipuna; Ma ka hale o ka ilio hihiu, kahi ana i moe ai, He wahi ia no ka ohe, a me ke kome.
8 And a highway hath been there, and a way, And the 'way of holiness' is called to it, Not pass over it doth the unclean, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoso is going in the way — even fools err not.
A malaila no ke kuamoo, he alanui hoi, A e kapaia no ia, Ke alanui o ka pono. Aole hele malaila ka mea haumia; E hele pu no oia me lakou ma ke ala, Aole lalau ka poe naaupo malaila.
9 No lion is there, yea, a destructive beast Ascendeth it not, it is not found there, And walked have the redeemed,
Aole liona ma ia wahi, Aole pii aku malaila kekahi holoholona hae, Aole e loaa ia ma ia wahi; Aka, malaila no e hele ai ka poe i hoolapanaiia.
10 And the ransomed of Jehovah return, And have entered Zion with singing. And joy age-during on their head, Joy and gladness they attain, And fled away have sorrow and sighing!
A e hoi mai no ko Iehova poe i kuai hoolaia, E hele mai no lakou i Ziona me ke oli, A me ka hauoli mau maluna o ko lakou mau poo; E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli, a me ka hauoli, A e auhee aku no ke kaumaha, a me ke kaniuhu.
