< Isaia 10 >

1 A UWE ka poe kau i na kanawai hewa, A me ka poe kakauolelo, i kakau i na mea kekee;
Cursed are those who make evil decisions, and the writers who make the records of their cruel acts:
2 I kipaku i ka poe kaumaha, mai ka hooponoia'ku, A kaili aku hoi i ka pono o ko'u poe kanaka poino, I pio ia lakou na wahinekanemake, A hao wale hoi i na keiki makua ole!
Who do wrong to the poor in their cause, and take away the right of the crushed among my people, so that they may have the property of widows, and get under their power those who have no father.
3 Pehea la oukou e hana'i i ka la o ka hoopui ana, Ke hiki mai ka make mai kahi loihi mai? Ia wai oukou e holo ai no ke kokuaia mai? Mahea oukou e waiho ai i ko oukou waiwai?
And what will you do in the day of punishment, and in the destruction which is coming from far? to whom will you go for help, and what will become of your glory?
4 I haaleleia e au, e kulou no lakou malalo me na mea pio, A e hina hoi malalo me na mea i lukuia. Aole nae i huli aku kona huhu no keia mau mea a pau, Aka, ke o mai nei no kona lima i keia manawa.
... For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
5 Auwe ko Asuria! ka laau hahau o kuu ukiuki, A o ua laau hahau la, aia no ia ma ko lakou lima, Oia hoi kuu inaina.
Ho! Assyrian, the rod of my wrath, the instrument of my punishment!
6 E hoouna aku au ia ia, e ku e i ka lahuikanaka aia, E kauoha aku no wau ia ia, E ku e i ka poe kanaka a'u i huhu ai; E hao aku i ka waiwaipio, a e lawe aku hoi i ka mea i paa; A e hahi ia lakou ilalo, e like me ka lepo o ke alanui.
I will send him against a nation of wrongdoers, and against the people of my wrath I will give him orders, to take their wealth in war, crushing them down like the dust in the streets.
7 Aole pela kona manao, Aole i noonoo kona naau pela; O ka luku no ka mea iloko o kona naau, A e anai aku i na aina he nui loa.
But this is not what is in his mind, and this is not his design; but his purpose is destruction, and the cutting off of more and more nations.
8 I mai la ia, aole anei he poe alii nui ko'u poe alii?
For he says, Are not all my captains kings?
9 Aole anei i like o Kaleno me Karekemisa? A o Hamata hoi me Arepada? A o Samaria me Damaseko?
Will not the fate of Calno be like that of Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 E like me ka loaa i kuu lima na aupuni o na'kua kii, Ua oi aku ko lakou akua kii mamua o ko Ierusalema, A mamua hoi o ko Samaria;
As my hand has come on the kingdoms of the images, whose pictured images were more in number than those of Jerusalem and Samaria;
11 Me au i hana aku ai ia Samaria a me kona poe akua kii, Aole anei au e hana pela ia Ierusalema a me kona mau akua?
So, as I have done to Samaria and her images, I will do to Jerusalem and her images.
12 A hiki aku i ka wa, e hooki ai ka Haku i kana hana a pau, Maluna o ka mauna o Ziona, a me Ierusalema, Alaila wau e hoopai aku ai i ka hua o ka naau kiekie o ke alii o Asuria, A me ka hookano ana o kona maka hookiekie.
For this cause it will be that, when the purpose of the Lord against Mount Zion and Jerusalem is complete, I will send punishment on the pride of the heart of the king of Assyria, and on the glory of his uplifted eyes.
13 No ka mea, ua olelo mai ia, Ua hana au i keia, i ka ikaika o ko'u lima iho, A i kuu akamai hoi, no ka mea, ua maalea au. Na'u no i hooneenee i na mokuna o na aina, A ua hao aku au i ko lakou waiwai, A e like hoi me ke kanaka koa, ua hoohaahaa wau i ka poe e noho ana.
For he has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my knowledge, for I am wise: and I have taken away the limits of the peoples' lands, and the stores of their wealth have become mine; and I have made towns low in the dust, sending destruction on those living in them;
14 Me he punana la i loaa'i i kuu lima ka waiwai o na lakuikanaka; A e like me ka hoiliili ana o na hua manu i haaleleia, Pela no wau i hoiliili ai i ko na aina a pau; Aohe mea i upoi ka eheu, Aohe mea i hamama ka waha a ioio.
And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.
15 E hookiekie anei ke koilipi maluna o ka mea nana e kalai me ia? E haanui anei ka pahiolo maluna o ka mea nana ia e oloolo? Me he laau la i wiliwili i kona mea nana e hapai, E like me ke kookoo hoi i hoala ia ia iho me he mea laau ole la.
Will the axe say high-sounding words against him who is using it, or the blade be full of pride against him who is cutting with it? As if a rod had the power of shaking him who is using it, or as if a stick might take up him who is not wood.
16 Nolaila e hoouna mai ai ka Haku, ka Haku o na kaua, I ka wiwi maluna o kona poe puipui; A malalo iho o kona nani e puhi ai oia i ka mea aa, E like me ke aa ana o ke ahi.
For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, will make his fat become wasted; and in his inner parts a fire will be lighted like a burning flame.
17 E lilo no ka malamalama o Iseraela i ahi, A o kona Mea Hemolele hoi i lapalapa ahi; A e puhi no ia, a e hoopau ma ka la hookahi, I kona nahele ooi, a me kona laau kalakala.
And the light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: wasting and burning up his thorns in one day.
18 E hoopau loa no ia i ka nani o kona ululaau, A me ka mahinaai hua nui, mai ka uhane a ke kino; A e like auanei ia me ka mea mai hokii loa.
And he will put an end to the glory of his woods and of his planted fields, soul and body together; and it will be as when a man is wasted by disease.
19 E uuku ana no ke koena o kona ululaau, E hiki no i ke keiki uuku ke palapala ia lakou.
And the rest of the trees of his wood will be small in number, so that a child may put them down in writing.
20 A hiki aku i kela la, O ke koena o ka Iseraela, O ka poe hoi i pakele o ka ohana a Iakoba, Aole lakou e hilinai hou maluna o ka mea nana lakou i pepehi; Aka, e hilinai io no maluna o Iehova, A maluna hoi o ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
And it will be in that day that the rest of Israel, and those of Jacob who have come safely through these troubles, will no longer go for help to him whose rod was on their back, but their faith will be in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
21 He koena no ke hoi mai, he koena no Iakoba, I ke Akua mana loa.
The rest, even the rest of Jacob, will come back to the Strong God.
22 Ina paha i like kou poe kanaka o Iseraela, Me ke one o ke kai, He koena wale no o lakou ke hoi mai; Ua holo ka olelo no ka hoopau ana, E hiki wawe mai ia, me ka pololei hoi.
For though your people, O Israel, are as the sand of the sea, only a small number will come back: for the destruction is fixed, overflowing in righteousness.
23 He oiaio no, ua holo ka olelo no ka hoopau ana, A na ka Haku no, na Iehova o na kaua e hana mai, Mawaena konu o ka aina a pau.
For the Lord, the Lord of armies, is about to make destruction complete in all the land.
24 Nolaila i olelo mai ai ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua, peneia, E ko'u poe kanaka e noho la ma Ziona, Mai makau oukou i ko Asuria; E hahau mai no lakou me ka laau hahau, A e hapai no hoi i ke kookoo maluna ou, E like me ka hana ana o Aigupita.
For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, says, O my people living in Zion, have no fear of the Assyrian, even if his rod comes on your back, and his stick is lifted up as in Egypt.
25 Aka, he wahi manawa uuku no e koe, Alaila, e kaa no kuu inaina, a me ko'u ukiuki hoi. Ma ke anaiia'ku o lakou.
For in a very short time my passion will be over, and my wrath will be turned to their destruction.
26 Na Iehova o na kaua e hapai i laau hahau maluna o lakou, E like me ka hahau ana i ko Midiana ma ka pohaka o Oreba: A me ka laau ana i hapai ai maluna o ke kai, E hapai no oia ia e like me kana hana ana i ko Aigupita.
And the Lord of armies will be shaking a whip against him, as when he overcame Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his rod will be lifted up against them as it was against the Egyptians.
27 A hiki mai ia la, E laweia'ka kona mea kanmaha, mai koa poohiwi ako, A me kona auamo maluna ako o kou a-i, E hakiia auanei imua o ka mea puipui
And in that day the weight which he put on your back will be taken away, and his yoke broken from off your neck.
28 Ua hele mai ia i Aiata, ua hala loa aku i Migerona, Ua waiho no i kana ukana ma Mikemasa:
He has gone up from Pene-Rimmon, he has come to Aiath; he has gone past Migron, at Michmash he puts his forces in order.
29 Ua hele mai lakou ma keia aoao o ke ahua; Aia ma Geba ko lakou wahi moe i ka po: Ua makau ko Rama; ua holo ko Gibea Saula.
They have gone across the mountain; Geba will be our resting-place tonight, they say: Ramah is shaking with fear; Gibeah of Saul has gone in flight.
30 E hookiekie i koa leo, e ke kaikamahine a Galima; E hoolohe oe, e Laisa; Auwe Anatota poino!
Give a loud cry, daughter of Gallim; let Laishah give ear; let Anathoth give answer to her.
31 Ua holo o Mademena: Ua hee ka poe i noho ma Gebima.
Madmenah has gone; the men of Gebim are putting their goods in a safe place.
32 Hookahi no la e koe o kona noho ana ma Noba, A e lulu ia i kona lima e ku e i ka mauna o ke kaikamahine o Ziona, I ka puu hoi o Ierusalema.
This very day he is stopping at Nob; he is shaking his hand against the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Aia hoi, na ka Haku, na Iehova o na kaua, E okioki i na lala me ka weliweli, A e kuaia ilalo na mea kiekie loa, A e hoohaahaaia na mea hookano.
See, the Lord, the Lord of armies, is cutting off his branches with a great noise, and his strong ones are falling and his high ones are coming down.
34 E kuaia ilalo me ka hao i na ululaau paapu, A e haule hoi o Lebanona imua o ka mea mana.
And he is cutting down the thick places of the wood with an axe, and Lebanon with its tall trees is coming down.
