Isaia 29
1 A UWE o Ariela, o Ariela, ke kulanakauhale, Kahi a Davida i noho ai! E hookui aku oukou i kekahi makahiki me kekahi makahiki; E hoomau hoi i ka ahaaina ana.
Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, The city where David dwelt! Add year to year, Let the festivals go round,
2 E hookaumaha aku no wau ia Ariela, A e nui auanei ka ehneha a me ke kaniuhu, A e like auanei ia ia'u me Ariela.
Then will I distress Ariel; Mourning and sorrow shall be there; Yet shall she be to me as Ariel [[the lion of God]].
3 E hoomoana ku e aku au ia oe a puni, E hoopilikia aku au ia oe i na mea kaua, A e hana au i pakaua imua ou.
I will encamp against thee round about, And I will lay siege against thee with a mound, And I will raise towers against thee.
4 A e hoohaahaaia auanei oe, A e kamailio mai no oe, mailoko mai o ka honua, A mai ka lepo mai e hooliiliiia kau olelo ana; E like auanei kou leo me ko ka poe ninau kupapau mailoko mai o ka honua, E like no hoi kau olelo ana, me ka ioio ana, mai ka lepo mai.
Thou shalt be brought down, and speak from the ground, And thy speech shall be low from the dust; Thy voice shall be like that of a spirit under ground, And thy speech shall chirp as from the dust.
5 E like auanei ka lehulehu o kou poe malahini, Me na huna uuku o ka lepo, E like no hoi ka lehulehu o ka poe ikaika me ka opala lele, E hiki wawe ia, ma ke sekona.
Yet shall the multitude of thine enemies be like fine dust; The multitude of the terrible like flying chaff; It shall take place suddenly, in a moment.
6 E hele hoohikilele mai o Iehova o na kaua ia oe, Me ka hekili a me ke olai, Me ka uwalaau nui, a me ka puahiohio, Me ka ino, a me ka lapalapa ahi e hoopau ana.
From Jehovah of hosts cometh the visitation With thunder, and earthquake, and great noise, With storm and tempest, And flames of devouring fire.
7 E like me ka moe uhane, i ka wa e hihio ai i ka po, Pela auanei ka lehulehu o na lahuikanaka a pau, I kaua aku ia Ariela. Ka poe hoi i kaua aku i kona pakaua, A hookaumaha aku ia ia.
As a dream, a vision of the night, Shall be the multitude of all the nations That fight against Ariel, That fight against her and her fortress, And distress her.
8 E like mo ka moe uhane ana o ka mea pololi, Aia hoi, ke ai la; aka i kona hikilele ana, Ua hakahaka kona naau; E like hoi me ka moe uhane ana o ka mea makewai, Aia hoi, ke inu la; aka i kona hikilele ana, Aia hoi, ua nawaliwali, a ua ikaika loa ka makemake o kona naau: Pela auanei ka lehulehu o na lahuikanaka a pau, E kaua ana i ka mauna o Ziona.
As a hungry man dreameth, and lo! he eateth, But awaketh and is still hungry; And as a thirsty man dreameth, and lo! he drinketh, But awaketh, and lo! he is faint and thirsty; So shall it be with the multitude of all the nations That fight against mount Zion.
9 E pihoihoi oukou, e kahaha hoi, E olioli no, a e makapo, Ua ona lakou, aole nae i ka waina, Ke hikaka nei, aole nae i ka wai ona.
Be in amazement and be amazed! Be blinded and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine; They stagger, but not with strong drink!
10 Ua ninini mai o Iehova maluna o oukou i ka manao hiamoe loa, A ua hoopili hoi i ko oukou mau maka; Ua uhi no oia i na kahuna, a me ko oukou poe alii a me na kaula.
For Jehovah hath poured upon you a spirit of slumber; He hath closed your eyes, the prophets, And covered your heads, the seers;
11 I like ka hoike ana a pau ia oukou Me na olelo o ka buke i hoopaaia i ka wepa, A i haawiia ia i ka mea ike i ka palapala, me ka olelo aku, E heluhelu i keia, ke noi aku nei au ia oe; A i mai kela, Aole hiki ia'u, no ka mea, ua paa i ka wepa.
And so every vision is to you as the words of a sealed book, Which is given to a man that is skilled in writing, Saying, “Read this, I pray thee”; But he answereth, “I cannot, for it is sealed.”
12 A haawiia ka buke i ka mea ike ole i ka palapala, me ka olelo aku, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e heluhelu i keia; A i mai hoi oia, Aole au i ike i ka palapala.
Or, if he give it to one that is not skilled in writing, Saying, “Read this, I pray thee,” He answereth, “I am not skilled in writing.”
13 Nolaila i olelo mai ai ka Haku, No ka hookokoke ana mai o keia poe kanaka ia'u me ko lakou waha, A hoomaikai mai ia'u ma ko lakou lehelehe, A ua mamao aku ko lakou naau mai o'u aku nei, A mamuli o ke kauoha a kanaka lakou e ao ai i ka makau ia'u;
Therefore saith the Lord, Since this people draweth near to me with their mouth, And honoreth me with their lips, While their heart is far from me, And their worship of me is according to the commandments of men,
14 Nolaila au e hana aku ai i keia poe kanaka i ka mea kupanaha, I ka mea kupanaha a mana hoi; A e pau auanei ko akamai o ko lakou poe akamai, A e pee wale aku ka naauao o ka poe naauao.
Therefore, behold, I will proceed to deal marvellously with this people; Marvellously and wonderfully, For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, And the prudence of the prudent shall be hid.
15 Auwe ka poe imi e huna i ka ohumu ana mai o Iehova aku, A aia ma ka pouli ka lakou hana ana, A olelo mai no hoi lakou, Owai la ka mea nana mai ia makou? Owai la hoi ka mea ike mai ia makou?
Woe to them that hide deep their purposes from Jehovah, Whose work is in darkness; That say, Who seeth us? Who knoweth us?
16 Auwe ko oukou lauwili! E manaoia anei ka lepo me ka mea nana i kawili: E olelo anei ka mea i hanaia i ka mea nana ia i hana, Aole ia i hana mai ia'u? E olelo anei ka mea i kapiliia i ka mea nana ia i kapili, Aole ia i ike?
Alas, your perverseness! Is the potter to be esteemed as the clay, That the work should say of its maker, He made me not? And the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding?
17 Aole anei he manawa uuku e koe, A lilo o Lebanona i mahinaai hua nui? A lilo hoi ka mahinaai hua nui, i ululaau?
Is it not yet a very little while, And Lebanon shall be changed to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field be esteemed a forest.
18 A ia la, e lohe no ka mea kuli i na huaolelo o ka buke, A mailoko mai o ka pouli, a mailoko mai o ka poeleele, E nana mai ai na maka o ka poe makapo.
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, And out of mist and darkness shall the eyes of the blind see.
19 E hoomahuahua no ka poe hoohaahaa i ka olioli ia Iehova, A e hauoli hoi ka poe hune o na kanaka i ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
The afflicted shall exceedingly rejoice in Jehovah, And the poor shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
20 No ka mea, ua oki loa ka mea oolea, Ua pau hoi ka mea hoowahawaha, Ua lakuia ka poe a pau i makaala i ka hewa:
For the oppressor hath come to naught; the scoffer is destroyed; And all that watched for iniquity are cut off;
21 Ka poe i hoohewa mai i ke kanaka no ka olelo hookahi, A hoopahele hoi i ka mea hooponopono ma na pukapa, Aole hoi he kumu no ka lakou hana paewaewa ana i ka poe i pono.
Who condemned a man in his cause, And laid snares for him who defended himself in the gate, And with falsehood caused the righteous to fail.
22 Nolaila, no ka hale o Iakoba i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Ka mea i hoola ia Aberahama, Aole Iakoba o hilahila hou, Aole e nananakea hou kona maka.
Therefore concerning the house of Jacob thus saith Jehovah, He that redeemed Abraham: No more shall Jacob be ashamed, And no more shall his face grow pale.
23 A i kona ike ana i kana mau keiki, i ka hana a kuu lima, E hoolaa no lakou i ko'u inoa iwaenakonu ona, E hoolaa no lakou i ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iakoba, A e makau no hoi i ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
For when his children behold the work of my hands in the midst of them, They shall honor my name. They shall honor the Holy One of Jacob, And reverence the God of Israel.
24 E naauao auanei ka poe i lalau ma ka naau, E ao no hoi ka poe ku e, a o loaa ia lakou ka ike.
They that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, And the obstinate shall receive instruction.
