< Micah 4 >

1 And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, The mount of the house of Jehovah Is established above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the hills, And flowed unto it have peoples.
A I na la mahope e hookupaaia ka mauna o ka hale o Iehova, maluna o na mauna, A e hookiekieia oia maluna o na puu; a e holo na kanaka i ona la.
2 And gone have many nations and said, Come and we go up to the mount of Jehovah, And unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we do walk in His paths, For from Zion doth go forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
A e hele na lahuikanaka he nui, a e olelo aku, E hele mai, a e pii aku kakou i ka mauna o Iehova, A i ka hale o ke Akua o Iakoba; A e ao mai ia ia kakou i kona mau aoao, A e hele kakou ma kona mau alanui; No ka mea, e hele ke kanawai mai Ziona aku, A o ka olelo a Iehova mai Ierusalema aku.
3 And He hath judged between many peoples, And given a decision to mighty nations afar off, They have beaten their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation lifteth not up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn war any more.
A e hooponopono no ia iwaena o na kanaka he nui, A e ao aku i na lahuikanaka ikaika, loihi loa aku; A e kui lakou i ka lakou mau pahikaua i oopalau, A i ka lakou mau ihe i pahipaipai: Aole e hapai ka lahuikanaka i ka pahikaua ku e i ka lahuikanaka, Aole hoi e ao hou lakou i ke kaua.
4 And they have sat each under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And there is none troubling, For the mouth of Jehovah of Hosts hath spoken.
A e noho kela kanaka keia kanaka malalo o kona kumuwaina, a malalo o kona laau fiku, Aohe mea nana e hoomakau mai; No ka mea, o ka waha o Iehova o na kaua, ka i olelo mai.
5 For all the peoples do walk, Each in the name of its god — and we, We do walk in the name of Jehovah our God, To the age and for ever.
No ka mea, e hele na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka ma ka inoa o kona akua, A e hele kakou ma ka inoa o Iehova ko kakou Akua, ia ao aku ia ao aku.
6 In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do gather the halting one, And the driven away one I bring together, And she whom I have afflicted.
I kela la, wahi a Iehova, houluulu au i ka mea oopa, A e hoakoakoa i ka mea i hookukeia'ku, a i ka mea a'u i hookaumaha ai:
7 And I have set the halting for a remnant, And the far-off for a mighty nation, And reigned hath Jehovah over them in mount Zion, From henceforth, and unto the age.
A e hoolilo au i ka mea oopa i koena, A i ka mea i hookuke loihi ia'ku, i lahuikanaka ikaika; A e noho alii o Iehova maluna o lakou ma ka mauna o Ziona, mai ia manawa aku, a i ka wa mau loa aku no.
8 And thou, O tower of Eder, Fort of the daughter of Zion, unto thee it cometh, Yea, come in hath the former rule, The kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.
A o oe, e ka halekiai o ka poe holoholona, Ka puu o ke kaikamahine a Ziona, E hele mai no ia iou la, O ke alii ana mamua; E hele mai ke aupuni i ke kaikamahine o Ierusalema.
9 Now, why dost thou shout aloud? A king — is there none in thee? Hath thy counsellor perished, That taken hold of thee hath pain as a travailing woman?
Ano, no ke aha la kou uwe nui ana? Aole anei he alii iloko ou? Ua make anei kou kakaolelo? No ka mea, ua loohia oe e ka eha, e like me ka wahine nahukuakoko.
10 Be pained, and bring forth, O daughter of Zion, As a travailing woman, For now, thou goest forth from the city, And thou hast dwelt in the field, And thou hast gone unto Babylon, There thou art delivered, There redeem thee doth Jehovah from the hand of thine enemies.
E haalulu, a e kuakoko, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona, me he wahine hanau la: No ka mea, ano e hele aku oe mai ke kulanakauhale aku, A e noho oe ma ke kula, A e hele aku oe a Babulona; A malaila e hoopakeleia oe; Malaila e hoola mai ai o Iehova ia oe mai ka lima mai o ko oukou poe enemi.
11 And now, gathered against thee have been many nations, who are saying: 'Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.'
Ano hoi, ua nui na lahuikanaka i akoakoa ku e mai ia oe, Ka mea e olelo ana, E hoohaumiaia oia, a e nana aku ko kakou maka i Ziona.
12 They have not known the thoughts of Jehovah, Nor have they understood His counsel, For He hath gathered them as a sheaf [into] a threshing-floor.
Aka, aole lakou i ike i na manao o Iehova, Aole i ike lakou i kona noonoo ana: No ka mea, e hoakoakoa oia ia lakou, me he pua la ma kahi hehi palaoa.
13 Arise, and thresh, O daughter of Zion, For thy horn I make iron, And thy hoofs I make brass, And thou hast beaten small many peoples, And I have devoted to Jehovah their gain, And their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth!
E ku iluna, a e hehi iho, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona; No ka mea, o hoolilo aku au i kou pepeiaohao i hao, A e hoolilo hoi au i kou mau maiuu wawae i keleawe: A e kui iho oe a liilii na kanaka he nui: A e hoolaa aku au i ka lakou loaa no Iehova, A i ko lakou waiwai no ka Haku o ka honua a pau.
