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, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add year to year; let the festivals come 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.
But I will besiege Ariel, and she will be mourning and lamenting; and she will be to me like Ariel.
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 you in a circle and will lay siege against you with a palisade, and I will raise siege works against you.
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.
You will be brought down and will speak from the ground; your speech will be low from the dust. Your voice will sound like a spirit that speaks from the ground, and out of the dust your speech will whisper.
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.
The great number of your invaders will become like fine dust, and the multitude of the ruthless ones as chaff that passes away. It will happen suddenly, in an instant.
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.
Yahweh of hosts will come to you with thunder, earthquake, great noise, with strong winds and violent storm, and the flames of a 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.
It will be like a dream, a vision of the night: A horde of all the nations will fight against Ariel and her stronghold. They will attack her and her fortifications to press upon 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.
It will be like when a hungry man dreams he is eating, but when he awakes, his stomach is empty. It will be like when a thirsty man dreams that he is drinking, but he when he awakes, he is fainting, with his thirst not quenched. Yes, so will be the great number of nations that fights 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.
Astonish yourselves and be astonished; blind yourselves and be blind! Be drunk, but not with wine; stagger, but not with beer.
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 Yahweh has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep. He has closed your eyes, the prophets, and has 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.
All revelation has become to you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men might give to one who is learned, saying, “Read this.” He also says, “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.
If the book is given to one who cannot read, saying, “Read this,” he says, “I cannot read.”
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;
The Lord said, “This people comes close to me with their mouths and honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. Their honor for me is only a commandment of men that has been taught.
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, see, I will proceed to do a marvelous thing among this people, wonder after wonder. The wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will disappear.”
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 those who deeply hide their plans from Yahweh, and whose deeds are in darkness. They say, “Who sees us, and who knows 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?
You turn things upside down! Should the potter be considered like clay, so that the thing that is made should say about him who made it, “He did not make me,” or the thing formed say about him who formed it, “He does not understand”?
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?
In just a little while, Lebanon will be turned into a field, and the field will become 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.
On that day the deaf will hear the words of a book, and the eyes of the blind will see out of the deep darkness.
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 oppressed will again rejoice in Yahweh, and the poor among men will rejoice 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 ruthless will cease, and the scoffer will vanish. All those who love to do evil will be eliminated,
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 by a word make a man out to be an offender. They lay a snare for him who seeks justice at the gate and put the righteous down with empty lies.
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 this is what Yahweh says concerning the house of Jacob—Yahweh, who redeemed Abraham, “Jacob will no longer be ashamed, nor will his face be 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.
But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, they will make my name holy. They will make holy the name of the Holy One of Jacob and they will stand in awe of 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.
Those who err in spirit will gain understanding, and complainers will learn knowledge.”
