Isaia 14
1 A LAILA, e aloha mai no o Iehova i ka Iakoba, E olioli hou no ia i ka Iseraela, A e hoomaha ia lakou ma ko lakou aina iho; A e hui pu ia na malihini me lakou, A e hoopili lakou i ko ka hale o Iakoba.
For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will again make choice of Israel, and replace them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined unto them, and they shall attach themselves to the house of Jacob.
2 E lawe na lahuikanaka ia lakou, A e hoihoi ia lakou i ko lakou wahi iho; A e noho no lakou mamuli o ko ka hale o ka Iseraela, I kauwakane, a i kauwawahine, ma ka aina o Iehova; A e lawe pio lakou i ka poe i hoopio ai ia lakou, A e noho alii lakou maluna o ka poe nana lakou i hookaumaha.
And nations shall take them, and bring them to their own place; but the house of Israel shall obtain possession of them in the land of the Lord for men-servants and for maid-servants; and they shall take captive their captors, and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 A i ka la e hoomaha mai ai o Iehova ia oe, Mai kou pilikia, a me kou poino, A mai ka hana kaumaha i kauia maluna ou,
And it shall come to pass on the day when the Lord will give thee rest from thy trouble, and from thy vexation, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 Alaila oe e haku ai i keia mele no ke alii o Babulona, I ka i ana iho, Nani ka pau ana o ka mea nana i hookaumaha, Ka pau ana hoi o ka mea auhau i ke gula!
That thou wilt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath ceased the oppressor! ceased the exactress of gold!
5 Ua uhaki o Iehova i ke kookoo o ka poo hewa, I ke kookoo alii hoi o ka poe hookaumaha.
Broken hath the Lord the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of rulers;
6 O ka mea i hahau i na kanaka me ka huhu, He hahau ana me ka hoomaha ole; Hahi no oia maluna o ko na aina me ka ukiuki, He hoomaau hooki ole.
He who smote people in wrath, blows without intermission, he that ruled in anger nations, persecuting without restraint.
7 A ua malu ka honua a pau, na maha no; Hookani olioli lakou.
At rest, quiet is all the earth; men break forth into loud song.
8 Hoaikola no hoi na laau kaa maluna ou, A me na kedera o Lebanona, i ae la, Mai kou wa i moe ai ilalo, Aohe mea e pii mai e kua ia makou.
Also, the fir-trees rejoice at thee, the cedars of Lebanon, “Since thou wast laid low, no feller is come up against us.”
9 Ua pihoihoi ka po malalo ia oe, E halawai me oe i kou hiki ana aku. Nou no ia i hoea mai ai i na mea lapu, I na mea mana hoi a pau o ka honua: Hooku ae la hoi ia iluna, i na'lii a pau o na aina, mai ko lakou nohoalii mai. (Sheol h7585)
The nether world from below is in motion concerning thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the departed for thee, all the chief ones of the earth; it hath caused to rise up from their thrones all the kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 A olelo mai no lakou a pau ia oe, i ka i ana, Ua lilo anei oe i nawaliwali, e like me makou? Ua hoohalikeia anei oe me makou?
They all will commence and say unto thee, “Thou—thou also art become weak like us; similar unto us art thou become!”
11 Ua hoopohoia kou hanohano ilalo i ka po, A me ke kani ana o kou mau lira; O kahi moe malalo ou he ilo ia, A uhi mai no hoi ka ilo ia oe, (Sheol h7585)
Into the nether world is brought down thy pride, the clatter of thy psalteries: beneath thee is spread the worm, and thy cover is the moth. (Sheol h7585)
12 Auwe kou haule ana mai ka lani mai, E ka Hokuloa, ke keiki a ke kakahiaka! Ua kuaia oe ilalo i ka honua, O oe, ka mea i hooauhee i ko na aina.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O morning-star, son of the dawn! how art thou hewn down to the ground, crusher of nations!
13 Aka, ua olelo no oe iloko o kou naau, E pii aku no wau i ka lani, E hookiekie no wau i ko'u nohoalii, Maluna o na hoku o ke Akua; E noho no wau ma ka mauna o ka halawai ana, Ma na aina loihi aku o ke kukulu akau.
And thou—thou hadst said in thy heart, “Into heaven will I ascend, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne; and I will sit also upon the mount of the assembly, in the farthest end of the north;
14 E pii aku no wau maluna o kahi kiekie o na ao, E like ana au me ka Mea kiekie loa.
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be equal to the Most High.”
But into the nether world shalt thou be brought down, into the lowest depth. (Sheol h7585)
16 O ka poe ike aku ia oe, e haka pono aku no lakou ia oe, E makaikai aku no ia oe, a e olelo iho, O keia anei ke kanaka nana i hoonaueue ka honua? A hooluliluli hoi na aupuni?
They that see thee will gaze at thee, will regard thee well, [saying, ] “Is this the man that caused the earth to tremble, that made kingdoms quake?
17 Nana i hoolilo ka honua nei, i waonahele, A anai hoi i kona poe kulanakauhale? Ka mea i kuu ole i kona mea pio, e hoi hou i ko lakou wahi?
That rendered the world as a wilderness, and pulled down its cities: never opened the prison-house of his prisoners?”
18 O na'lii a pau o na aina, maloko o ka nani lakou a pau e moe nei, O kela mea keia mea ma kona wahi iho.
All the kings of nations, all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own [eternal] house.
19 Ua hooleiia'ku ka oe mawaho o kou lua, Me he oha la i hoopailuaia, Me he aahu la o ka poe i pepehiia, Ka poe hoi i houia i ka pahikaua, Me he kupapau la i hahiia.
But thou—thou art cast out of thy grave like a discarded offshoot, as a garment of those that are slain, pierced by the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot.
20 Aole oe e huipuia me lakou ma ke kanu ana, No ka mea, ua hooki loa oe i kou aina iho, Ua luku no oe i kou poe kanaka; Aole e hea hou ia ka hanauna o ka poe hewa a i ke ao pau ole,
Thou shalt not be united with them in burial; because thy land hast thou destroyed, thy people hast thou slain: to eternity shall not be called the seed of evil-doers.
21 E hoomakaukau oukou i ka make no kana mau keiki, No ka hewa o na makua o lakou; I ole lakou e ku mai, a komo i ka aina, I hoopiha ole hoi lakou i ka aina i na kulanakauhale.
Prepare for his children the slaughter, for the iniquity of their fathers: that they may not rise, and possess the land, and fill the face of the world with enemies [of mankind].
22 Na'u no e ala'e iluna e ku e ia lakou, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua; E hooki loa no wau i ka inoa o Babulona, A me ke koena, a me na keiki, a me na mamo, Wahi a Iehova.
And I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will cut off from Babylon name, and remnant, and son, and grandson, saith the Lord.
23 E hooili aku au ia wahi no ke kipoda, A e lilo hoi ia i kiowai; A e kahili aku au ia me ke kahili o ka make, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
I will also make it a possession for the hedgehog, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the Lord of hosts.
24 Ua hoohiki mai o Iehova o na kaua, i mai la, Me ka'u i manao ai, pela io no ia: O ka'u i noonoo ai, oia ke kupaa.
Sworn hath the Lord of hosts, saying, Surely as I have purposed, so doth it come to pass; and as I have resolved, so shall it occur:
25 E lukuia auanei ko Asuria ma kuu aina, E hahi no wau ia ia maluna o ko'u kuahiwi; E laweia kana auamo mai o lakou aku, E haule hoi kona mea kaumaha mai luna mai o ko lakou poohiwi.
To break Asshur in my own land, and upon my mountains will I tread him under foot; then shall his yoke be removed from off them, and his burden from off their shoulders.
26 Oia ka manao i manaoia'i no ka honua a pau; Oia ka lima i oia mai maluna ona lahuikanaka a pau.
This is the resolve that is resolved over all the earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 No ka mea, ua paa ka manao o Iehova o na kaua, Owai la hoi ka mea hiki ke hoole? Ua oia mai kona lima, Owai la ka mea e hoihoi aku ia?
For the Lord of hosts hath resolved, and who shall frustrate it? and it is his hand which is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 I ka makahiki i make ai o ke alii, o Ahaza, keia wanana.
In the year king Achaz died was this prophecy [given].
29 Mai olioli oe, e Pelisetia a pau, No ka hakiia o ka laau i hahau ia oe; No ka mea, mai ke aa o ka nahesa e laha mai ai ka moo pepeiaohao, A o kana hua hoi, he moo lele.
Rejoice not, thou entire Palestine, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken; for out of the serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and its fruit shall be a flying dragon.
30 E ai no ka poe hune loa, A e moe no ilalo ka poe ehaeha me ka maluhia; Aka, e hooki loa au i kou aa i ka wi, A e luku aku oia i kou poe i koe.
And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall rest in safety: and I will kill with famine thy root, and men shall slay thy remnant.
31 E aoa, e ka pukapa, e uwe aku, e ke kulanakauhale, Ua maule oe, e Pilisetia a pau. No ka mea, ke punohu mai nei ka uwahi mai ka akau mai, Aohe mea helelei o kona poe kaua.
Wail, O gate; cry out, O city; thou art dissolved, O thou entire Palestine; for from the north a smoke is coming, and there is no one solitary among those that are bidden to come.
32 Pehea la e olelo aku ai i na elele o ka aina? Ua hookumu o Iehova ia Ziona, E loaa auanei ka puuhonua no kona poe kanaka poino.
And what will each one of the messengers of the nation answer? That the Lord hath founded Zion; and that therein shall find protection the poor of his people.
