Amosa 9
1 I KE aku la au ia Iehova e ku ana maluna o ke kuahu: a i mai la ia, E hahau i ke poo o ke kia, i haalulu ai na kumu kia; A e oki ia lakou ma ke poo, ia lakou a pau; A e pepehi aku au i ke koena o lakou me ka pahikaua: O ka mea o lakou e holo ana, aole ia e malu; A o ka mea e pakele ana, aole e pakele io.
I saw the Lord towering above the altar, and he commanded: Strike the tops of the pillars so that the foundations may shake, bring them down on the heads of the people below. The rest of them I will slay with the sword: no one will get away, no one will escape.
2 Ina e eli iho lakou i ka po, e lawe ko'u lima ia lakou mailaila mai; Ina e pii lakou i ka lani, e lawe au ia lakou mailaila mai; (Sheol h7585)
If they dig down to Sheol, there will my hand take them. If they climb up to the heavens, from there will I bring them down. (Sheol h7585)
3 A ina e pee lakou maluna o ka piko o Karemela, e imi aku au, a e lawe ia lakou mailaila mai; A ina e pee lakou mai kuu maka aku ma ka mole o ke kai, Malaila e kena aku au i ka nahesa, a e nahu aku ia ia lakou.
If they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, there will I search them out and take them. If they hide out of my sight at the bottom of the sea, there will I command the sea serpent to bite them.
4 A ina e hele pio aku lakou imua o ko lakou poe enemi, Malaila e kena aku au i ka pahikaua, a e luku aku ia ia lakou; A e kau aku kuu mau maka maluna o lakou no ka ino, aole no ka maikai.
If they are taken into captivity by their enemies, there will I command the sword to slay them. I will keep my eye on them but for evil and not for good.
5 A o Iehova, ka Haku o na kaua, oia ka mea e hoopa i ka aina, a e hehee iho no ia; A e auwe iho ka poe a pau e noho ana iloko ona: A e ea ae ia me he muliwai la a puni ona; A e halana ae e like me ka muliwai o Aigupita.
It is the Lord the God of hosts, who touches the earth and it trembles, all who live on it mourn. The earth rises up like the Nile, and sinks like the Nile of Egypt.
6 Oia ka i hana i na papaluna iloko o ka lani, a i hookumu i kona poai maluna o ka honua; O ka mea i hoopii ae i na wai o ka moana, a ninini iho ia lakou maluna o ka ili o ka aina; O Iehova kona inoa:
The one who builds in the heavens, who sets the dome of the sky over the earth, who summons the waters of the sea and pours them out on the face of the earth: the Lord is his name.
7 E na mamo a Iseraela, aole anei oukou i like ia'u me na mamo a Kusa? wahi a Iehova. Aole anei au i lawe mai i ka Iseraela mai ka aina o Aigupita mai? A i ko Pilisetia mai Kapetora mai, a me ko Suria mai Kira mai?
To me, Israelites, you are just like the Cushites, says the Lord. Yes, I brought Israel up out of the land of Egypt, but also the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir!
8 Aia hoi, o na maka o Iehova ka Haku maluna o ke aupuni hewa; A e hokai aku au ia mai ka honua aku; Aka hoi, aole au e luku loa aku i ko ka hale o Iakoba, wahi a Iehova.
Behold the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom: I will destroy it from the face of the earth! But I will not completely destroy the house of Jacob, says the Lord.
9 No ka mea, aia hoi, e kauoha aku au, a e kanana iho ai i ko ka hale o Iseraela iwaena o na lahuikanaka a pau; E like me ka hua palaoa i kananaia iloko o ke kanana, Aole e haule kekahi hua ma ka honaa.
For behold I am about to give the command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations just as one shakes grain in a sieve, but not a pebble shall fall to the ground.
10 E make ka poe hewa a pau o kuu poe kanaka i ka pahikaua, Ka poe e olelo ana, Aole e hiki mai ka hewa mahope, aole hoi mamua o kakou.
All the sinners of my people, who deny that disaster will touch or befall them, will die by the sword.
11 I kela la e kukulu au i ka halelewa o Davida i wawahiia, A e hoopaa i kona wahi hiolo; A e hooku hou au i kona mau mea i heleleiia, A hana aku ia e like me na la mamua;
On that day I will raise up the fallen house of David, I will wall up its gaps and raise up its ruins, I will rebuild it as it was long ago.
12 I lilo no lakou ke koena o ka Edoma, a me na lahuikanaka a pau, Ka poe i kaheaia ka inoa o Iehova maluna o lakou, wahi a Iehova, nana keia i hana.
They will possess again the rest of Edom, and all the nations which once you ruled for me, says the Lord, who will do this.
13 Aia hoi, e hiki mai na la, wahi a Iehova, E halawai ai ka mea e mahiai ana, me ka mea e oki ana, A o ka mea e hehi i na huawaina, me ka mea e lulu i ka hua; A e hookulukulu iho na mauna i ka waina hou, A e hehee iho na puu a pau.
Listen! The days are coming, says the Lord, when the harvest is too big to reap before it is time to plough, when the grapes cannot be all trod before it is time to sow, when the mountains will run with sweet wine, and every hill will flow with it.
14 A e hoihoi mai au i ka poe pio o kuu poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, A e kukulu lakou i na kulanakauhale neoneo, a noho lakou iloko; A e kanu lakou i na pawaina, a e inu lakou i ko lakou waina; A e hana lakou i na kihapai, a e ai hoi i ko lakou hua.
I will bring back my people Israel, they will rebuild waste cities and inhabit them, plant vineyards and drink their wine, make gardens and eat their fruit.
15 A e kanu iho au ia lakou ma ko lakou aina iho, Aole e uhuki hou ia ae lakou mai ko lakou aina ae, Ka mea a'u i haawi aku ai ia lakou, wahi a Iehova kou Akua.
I will plant them on their own soil, and they will never again be uprooted from their land which I have given them, says the Lord your God.
