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 will Jehovah punish with his sword, His hard, and great, and strong sword, The leviathan, that fleet serpent, Even the leviathan, that winding serpent; Yea, he will slay the monster, that is in the sea.
2 I kela la, e hookani oukou no ka pawaina.
In that day, sing ye thus concerning the vineyard:
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, Jehovah, am its guardian; I will water it every moment; That no one may assault it, I will watch it day and night.
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.
There is no fury in me; But let me find the thorns and thistles in battle. I will go against them, And burn them up together,
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.
Unless they take hold of my protection, And with me make peace, And 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 coming days shall Jacob take root, And Israel flourish and bud forth, And fill the world with fruit.
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?
Did he smite Israel, as he smote those that smote him? Was he slain as those that slew 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 measure, by sending her away, didst thou punish her, Taking her away in the rough tempest, 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.
By this, therefore, is the iniquity of Jacob expiated, And this is wholly the fruit of the removal of his sin, That He has made the stones of the altar like limestones broken in pieces, And that the images of Astarte and the sun-pillars no more stand.
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 desolate, A habitation forsaken, deserted like a wilderness; There doth the calf feed, and there doth he lie down, And consume her branches.
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 her boughs are withered, they are broken off; Women come, and burn them; For it was a people of no understanding; Therefore he that made him had not mercy on him, And he that formed him showed him no favor.
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.
But it shall come to pass in that day, That Jehovah shall gather fruit From the stream of the Euphrates to the river of Egypt, And ye shall be gathered, one by one, 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.
In that day shall a great trumpet be sounded, And they shall come who are lost in the land of Assyria, And are outcasts in the land of Egypt, And shall worship Jehovah upon the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
