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 Yahweh With his sword—the hard and the great and the strong, Bring punishment Upon Leviathan, the fleeing serpent, And upon Leviathan, the crooked serpent, —And will slay the monster which is in the sea.
2 I kela la, e hookani oukou no ka pawaina.
In that day, A Wine-Vineyard! sing ye unto her:
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—Yahweh, am Watching over her, Every moment, will I water her, —Lest anyone injure her, Night and day, will I watch over her.
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, have I none, —Oh that there were delivered to me briars and thorns, in battle! I would march in among them I would set fire to them one and all.
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.
Else, let one lay hold of my protection, Let him make peace with me, —Peace, let him make 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 times, shall Jacob strike root, Israel, shall blossom and bud, —Then shall they fill the face of 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?
Was it, with the smiting of his smiter, that he smote him? Or as with the slaying of his slayer, was he slain?
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.
By driving her away—by dismissing her, wouldest thou contend with her? He removed her by his rough wind in, a day of 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 hereby, shall a propitiatory—covering be put over the iniquity of Jacob, And all, this, is the fruit of taking away his sin, —When he maketh all the stones of an altar like chalk-stones that soon crumble, Sacred Stems and Sun Images, shall not arise.
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, The dwelling forsaken and left as a wilderness, —There, shall the calf feed, And, there, lie down And shall 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 cut-off boughs thereof are dry, they shall be broken to pieces, Women, coming, are kindling it! For it is not a people of understanding, For this cause, Will he that made him, not have compassion upon him, And, he that formed him, will shew him no favour.
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 Yahweh will beat off his fruit from the stream of the River ["Euphrates"], unto the torrent-valley of Egypt, —And, ye, shall be picked up, one by one O sons 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 there shall be a blowing with a great horn, Then shall come in Such as have wandered in the land of Assyria, And such as have been outcasts in the land of Egypt, —And they shall bow themselves down unto Yahweh In the holy mountain, In Jerusalem.
