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?
The word about the valley of vision. Why have all your people gone up to the house-tops?
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.
You, who are full of loud voices, a town of outcries, given up to joy; your dead men have not been put to the sword, or come to their death in war.
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 gone in flight; all your strong ones have gone far away.
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.
For this cause I have said, Let your eyes be turned away from me in my bitter weeping; I will not be comforted for the wasting 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 it is a day of trouble and of crushing down and of destruction from the Lord, the Lord of armies, in the valley of vision; ...
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.
And Elam was armed with arrows, and Aram came on horseback; and the breastplate of Kir was uncovered.
7 E piha auanei i na kaakaua kou mau awawa i makemakeia, A e hoomakaukau na hololio e hoouka ma ka pukapa.
And your most fertile valleys were full of war-carriages, and the horsemen took up their positions in front of the town.
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 took away the cover of Judah; and in that day you were looking with care at the store of arms in the house of the woods.
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,
And you saw all the broken places in the wall of the town of David: and you got together the waters of 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.
And you had the houses of Jerusalem numbered, pulling down the houses to make the wall stronger.
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.
And you made a place between the two walls for storing the waters of the old pool: but you gave no thought to him who had done this, and were not looking to him by whom it had been purposed long before.
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.
And in that day the Lord, the Lord of armies, was looking for weeping, and cries of sorrow, cutting off of the hair, and putting on the clothing of grief:
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 in place of these there was joy and delight, oxen and sheep were being made ready for food, there was feasting and drinking: men said, Now is the time for food and wine, for tomorrow death comes.
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,
And the Lord of armies said to me secretly, Truly, this sin will not be taken from you till your death, says the Lord, the Lord of armies.
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,
The Lord, the Lord of armies, says, Go to this person in authority, this Shebna, who is over the house; who has made himself a resting-place on high, cutting out a place for himself in the rock, and say,
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.
Who are you, and by what right have you made for yourself a resting-place here?
17 Aia hoi e kipaku no o Iehova ia oe, He kipaku ino loa ana, E oiaio no e uhi mai oia ia oe.
See, O strong man, the Lord will send you violently away, gripping you with force,
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.
Twisting you round and round like a ball he will send you out into a wide country: there you will come to your end, and there will be the carriages of your pride, O shame of your lord's house!
19 E kipaku aku wau ia oe mai kou wahi aku, Mai kou wahi aku oia e kaili aku ai ia oe.
And I will have you forced out of your place of authority, and pulled down from your position.
20 A hiki aku ia la, E hea aku wau i ka'u kauwa, ia Eliakima i ke keiki a Hilekia;
And in that day I will send for my servant, Eliakim, the 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.
And I will put your robe on him, and put your band about him, and I will give your authority into his hand: and he will be a father to the men of Jerusalem, and to the family 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.
And I will give the key of the family of David into his care; and what he keeps open will be shut by no one, and what he keeps shut no one will make 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.
And I will put him like a nail in a safe place; and he will be for a seat of glory to his father's family.
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.
And all the glory of his father's family will be hanging on him, all their offspring, every small vessel, even the cups and the basins.
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, says the Lord of armies, will the nail fixed in a safe place give way; and it will be cut down, and in its fall the weight hanging on it will be cut off, for the Lord has said it.
