< Isaia 27 >
1 I KELA la, me kona pahikaua kaumaha, a nui, a ikaika, E hoopai mai ai o Iehova i leviatana, i ka nahesa lele hoi, I leviatana, i nahesa kekee hoi, A e pepehi no oia i ka moo nui maloko o ke kai.
In that day the LORD with His sore and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the slant serpent, and leviathan the tortuous serpent; and He will slay the dragon that is in the sea.
2 I kela la, e hookani oukou no ka pawaina.
In that day sing ye of her: 'A vineyard of foaming wine!'
3 Owau, o Iehova, ke malama aku nei au ia, E hoomau aku au ia ia i ka wai i na manawa a pau. O hoeha mai kekahi ia ia i ka po, a i ke ao paha, E kiai aku no wau ia ia.
I the LORD do guard it, I water it every moment; lest Mine anger visit it, I guard it night and day.
4 Aohe huhu iloko o'u, Owai ka mea nana e hoonoho i ke kakalaioa, a me ka puakala, E ku e mai ia'u ma ke kaua ana? E hele ku e no wau ia lakou, E puhi no wau ia lakou pu.
Fury is not in Me; would that I were as the briers and thorns in flame! I would with one step burn it altogether.
5 Ina e pili mai oia i ko'u ikaika, A hana mai ia'u ma ka mea e malu ai, E malu io no oia ia'u.
Or else let him take hold of My strength, that he may make peace with Me; yea, let him make peace with Me.
6 E hookumu no oia i ka poe i laha mai, mai o Iakoba mai, E hoomaka no ka Iseraela, a e mohala hoi, A e hoopiha no ia i keia ao i ka hua.
In days to come shall Jacob take root, Israel shall blossom and bud; and the face of the world shall be filled with fruitage.
7 Ua hahau mai anei oia ia ia, E like me kona hahau ana mai i ka poe i hahau aku ia ia? Ua pepehiia anei oia, e like me ka pepehiia o ka poe i pepehi aku ia ia?
Hath He smitten him as He smote those that smote him? Or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by Him?
8 I kou kipaku ana, e hahau liilii ana no oe ia ia; Ke hoopuehu nae no oia ia ia me ka makani ikaika, i ka la o ka makani mai ka hikina mai.
In full measure, when Thou sendest her away, Thou dost contend with her; He hath removed her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Penei hoi e kalaia'i ka hewa o Iakoba, A he hua no keia a pau e kala'i i ka hala; I kona hoolilo ana i na pohaku a pau o ke kuahu, E like me na pohaku puna i ulupaia, I ala ole mai hoi na kii o Aseterota, a me na'kua kii.
Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
10 Aka, e neoneo auanei ke kulanakauhale i paa i ka pakaua, A lilo hoi i hale haaleleia, a waihoia no hoi e like me ka waonahele. Malaila no e ai ai ka bipi, Malaila no hoi ia e moe ai, A e ai no ia i kolaila muo hou.
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
11 A maloo kona mau lala, alaila, e uhaiia no lakou; E hele mai no na wahine, a e puhi ia mau mea i ke ahi. No ka mea, he lahuikanaka noonoo ole ia; Nolaila, o ka mea nana ia i hana, aole ia e aloha mai ia ia, A o ka mea nana ia i kukulu, aole ia e hana lokomaikai mai ia ia.
When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore He that made them will not have compassion upon them, and He that formed them will not be gracious unto them.
12 A hiki aku ia la, E uhai o Iehova, mai ka wai o kahawai mai, A hiki aku i ka muliwai o Aigupita, A e hoiliili pakahi ia oukou, E na mamo a Iseraela.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD will beat off His fruit from the flood of the River unto the Brook of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
13 A hiki aku ia la, E puhiia ka pu nui, A e hele mai ka poe aneane make ma ka aina o Asuria, A o ka poe i puenuia ma ka aina o Aigupita, A e hoomana lakou ia Iehova, Ma ka mauna hoano ma Ierusalema.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great horn shall be blown; and they shall come that were lost in the land of Assyria, and they that were dispersed in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
