Isaia 22
1 KA wanana no ke awawa o ka ikeana, Heaha kau i keia wa, I pii ai oukou a pau iluna o na kaupaku hale?
This is the burden against the Valley of Vision: What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the rooftops,
2 O oe ka mea i walaau no ka lako, Ke kulanakauhale wawa nui, Ke kulanakauhale olioli; O kou poe i lukuia, aole lakou i lakuia i ka pahikaua, Aole lakou i make i ka hoouka ana.
O city of commotion, O town of revelry? Your slain did not die by the sword, nor were they killed in battle.
3 Ua auhee pu aku no kou poe luna a pau, Ua pio lakou i ka poe pana; O ka poe a pau i loaa maloko ou, ua pio lakou, Ua hee no hoi, mai kahi loihi mai.
All your rulers have fled together, captured without a bow. All your fugitives were captured together, having fled to a distant place.
4 Nolaila au i olelo ai, E huli ae oukou mai o'u aku nei, e uwe nui loa ana au: Mai hooikaika e hoomaha mai ia'u, No ka lukuia o ke kaikamahine o ko'u poe kanaka.
Therefore I said, “Turn away from me, let me weep bitterly! Do not try to console me over the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 No ka mea, he la haunaele keia, A me ka hahi ana, a me ka pilikia, Na ka Haku, na Iehova o na kaua ma ke awawa o ka ikeana, Ua wawahiia ka pa, olo ae la ka pihe a kuahiwi.
For the Lord GOD of Hosts has set a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the Valley of Vision— of breaking down the walls and crying to the mountains.
6 Ke amo nei o Elama i ke aapua, Me na kanaka iloko o ke kaakaua a me na hololio, A unuhi o Kira i ka palekaua.
Elam takes up a quiver, with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovers the shield.
7 E piha auanei i na kaakaua kou mau awawa i makemakeia, A e hoomakaukau na hololio e hoouka ma ka pukapa.
Your choicest valleys are full of chariots, and horsemen are posted at the gates.
8 Wehe ae la oia i ka mea i uhi ai i ka Iuda, A ia la nana aku la oe ma ka hale kahikokaua o ka ululaau,
He has uncovered the defenses of Judah. On that day you looked to the weapons in the House of the Forest.
9 A ike no hoi oukou i na wahi naha o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, ua nui; A hoohui oukou i na wai o ka waipuna lalo,
You saw that there were many breaches in the walls of the City of David. You collected water from the lower pool.
10 Ua helu oukou i na hale o Ierusalema, Ua wawahi oukou i na hale i mea e hoopaa ai i ka papohaku.
You counted the houses of Jerusalem and tore them down to strengthen the wall.
11 A hana no oukou i lokowai mawaena o na pa elua, No ka wai o ka waipuna kahiko; Aole oukou i nana aku ma ka Mea nana ia i hana. Aole oukou i manao aku i ka Mea nana ia i hooponopono i ka wa kahiko.
You built a reservoir between the walls for the waters of the ancient pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or consider Him who planned it long ago.
12 Ia la, hea mai no ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua, E uwe, a e kumakena, I ka ohule ana, a me ke kaei kapa inoino.
On that day the Lord GOD of Hosts called for weeping and wailing, for shaven heads and the wearing of sackcloth.
13 Aia hoi, he olioli, a me ka hauoli, E kalua ana i na bipi, e pepehi ana hoi i na hipa, E ai ana i ka io, e inu ana hoi i ka waina: E ai kakou, e inu hoi, no ka mea, apopo e make ana kakou.
But look, there is joy and gladness, butchering of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”
14 Na Iehova o na kaua i hoike mai maloko o ko'u mau pepeiao, Aole e kalaia keia hewa o oukou, a make oukou, Wahi a ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua,
The LORD of Hosts has revealed in my hearing: “Until your dying day, this sin of yours will never be atoned for,”
15 Olelo mai ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua, penei, O hele, a hiki aku oe i keia puuku ia Sebena i ka mea maluna o ka hale, a e olelo aku,
This is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “Go, say to Shebna, the steward in charge of the palace:
16 Heaha kau ia nei, a owai hoi kou poe maanei, I kalai ai oe i hale kupapau nou maanei? Ua kalai no oia i hale kupapau nona ma kahi kiekie, Ua pao hoi oia i hale nona maloko o ka pohaku.
What are you doing here, and who authorized you to carve out a tomb for yourself here—to chisel your tomb in the height and cut your resting place in the rock?
17 Aia hoi e kipaku no o Iehova ia oe, He kipaku ino loa ana, E oiaio no e uhi mai oia ia oe.
Look, O mighty man! The LORD is about to shake you violently. He will take hold of you,
18 E olokaa no oia ia oe me he mea poepoe la, E kaa aku ana i ka aina palahalaha ma na aoao; Malaila oe e make ai, A malaila e lilo ai kou mau kaakaua nani, i mea e hilahila ai ka hale o kou haku.
roll you into a ball, and sling you into a wide land. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will remain—a disgrace to the house of your master.
19 E kipaku aku wau ia oe mai kou wahi aku, Mai kou wahi aku oia e kaili aku ai ia oe.
I will remove you from office, and you will be ousted from your position.
20 A hiki aku ia la, E hea aku wau i ka'u kauwa, ia Eliakima i ke keiki a Hilekia;
On that day I will summon My servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
21 A e hoaahu aku wau ia ia i kou aahu, A e kaei aku wau ia ia me kou kaei, A e haawi aku wau i kou alii ana iloko o kona lima, A e lilo ia i makua no ka poe e noho la ma Ierusalema, A no ko ka hale o ka Iuda.
I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will put your authority in his hand, and he will be a father to the dwellers of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
22 E kau no wau i ke ki o ka hale o Davida ma kona poohiwi, A nana no e wehe, aohe mea nana e pani, A nana no e pani, aohe mea nana e wehe.
I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
23 A e hoopaa aku au ia ia me he makia la ma kahi paa, A e lilo ia i nohoalii nani loa no ko ka hale o kona makua.
I will drive him like a peg into a firm place, and he will be a throne of glory for the house of his father.
24 A e kau no lakou maluna ona i ka nani a pau o ka hale o kona makua; O na mamo, a me na pua, o na kiaha uuku a pau, Mai na kiaha bola maikai a pau, a i na kiaha lepo a pau.
So they will hang on him the whole burden of his father’s house: the descendants and the offshoots—all the lesser vessels, from bowls to every kind of jar.
25 A hiki aku ia la, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, E unuhiia ka makia i hoopaaia ma kahi paa, E kuaia ia ilalo a e hina hoi; A e hoopauia auanei ka mea i kauia maluna ona, No ka mea, ua olelo mai o Iehova.
In that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, the peg driven into a firm place will give way; it will be sheared off and fall, and the load upon it will be cut down.” Indeed, the LORD has spoken.
