< Isaia 34 >

1 E HOOKOKOKE mai, e ko na aina, i lohe oukou, E hoolohe mai hoi, e na lahuikanaka, E haliu mai hoi ko ka honua, A me kolaila mea a pau e piha ai, O ke ao nei, a me kona mea ulu a pau.
Draw near, O ye nations, and hear! Attend, O ye people! Let the earth hear, and all that is therein; The world, and all that springs from it!
2 No ka mea, maluna o na lahuikanaka a pau ka inaina o Iehova, A o kona ukiuki hoi maluna o ko lakou lehulehu a pau; Ua molia oia ia lakou, Ua haawi oia ia lakou i ka make.
For the wrath of Jehovah is kindled against all the nations, And his fury against all their armies; He hath devoted them to destruction; He hath given them up to slaughter.
3 E kiolaia'ku no ko lakou poe i houia, A e pii aku no ka pilau o ko lakou kupapau, A e hooheheeia na kuahiwi i ko lakou koko.
Their slain shall be cast out; From their carcasses their stench shall ascend, And the mountains shall flow down with their blood.
4 E hookii loa aku no na mea a pau o ka lani, A e owili pu ia na lani me he pepa la; E haule no kolaila mau mea a pau ilalo, E like me ka haule ana o ka lau o ke kumuwaina, E like hoi me ka haule ana o ka hua mimino o ka laau fiku.
And all the hosts of heaven shall melt away; And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll, And all their host shall fall down, As the withered leaf faileth from the vine, As the blighted fruit from the fig-tree.
5 No ka mea, ua inu no ka'u pahikaua ma ka lani a ona; Aia hoi, e iho ana ia maluna o Edoma, Maluna hoi o ka lahuikanaka a'u i hoolilo ai no ka hoopaiia.
For my sword hath become drunk in heaven; Behold, upon Edom shall it descend, Upon the people under my curse, for vengeance.
6 Ua ana ka pahikaua o Iehova i ke koko, Ua hapalaia i ke kaikea, I ke koko hoi o na keikihipa momona, a me na kaokane, I ke kaikea hoi ma na puupaa o na hipakane, No ka mea, he mohai ko Iehova ma Bozera, A he luku nui hoi ma ka aina o Edoma.
The sword of Jehovah is full of blood; It is covered with fat, With the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams; For Jehovah holdeth a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 E haule pu na reema me lakou, A me na bipikane, a me na mea ikaika; A e ona no ko lakou aina i ke koko, A momona no hoi ko lakou lepo i ke kaikea.
The wild buffaloes shall fall down with them. And the bullocks with the bulls; The hind shall be drunk with blood, And the ground enriched with fat.
8 No ka mea, o ka la no ia o ko Iehova koopai ana, O ka makahiki hoi o ka hoouku ana no na hakaka o Ziona.
For Jehovah holdeth a day of vengeance, A year of recompense in the cause of Zion.
9 E lilo no kolaila muliwai i kepau, A o kolaila lepo hoi i luaipele; A e lilo no kolaila aina i kepau e a ana.
Her streams shall be turned into pitch, And her dust into brimstone, And her whole land shall become burning pitch.
10 Aole ia e hoopioia i ka po, aole i ko ao; A e punohu mau loa aku no kona uwahi; E waiho kaha wale ia no ia, mai keia hanauna, a ia hanaua aku, Aohe mea e hele mawaena olaila a hiki i ka manawa pau ole.
Day and night it shall not be quenched; Its smoke shall ascend forever; From generation to generation it shall lie waste; None shall pass through it for ever and ever.
11 E komo no malaila ka pelikana, a me ke kipoda; A malaila no hoi e noho ai ka pueo, a me ke koraka; A e hoomoe oia maluna ona i kaula o ka neoneo; A me na pohaku o ka olohelohe.
The pelican and the hedgehog shall possess it; The heron and the raven shall dwell in it; Over it will he draw the measuring-line of destruction. And the plummet of desolation.
12 Aole e hea hou ia na'lii malaila no ko aupuni, A e lilo no kona poe luna a pau i mea ole.
Her nobles — none are there, who may proclaim a kingdom, And all her princes have come to naught.
13 E ulu no ke kakalaioa maloko o kona mau halealii; O ka nahelemaneo, a me ka laau ooi ma kona mau pakaua, A e lilo no ia i wahi no na ilio hihiu, I wahi noho hoi no na iana.
Thorns shall spring up in her palaces; Nettles and thistles in her strongholds. She shall become a habitation for jackals, A court for ostriches.
14 E halawai no na ilio hihiu o ka waonahele me na iliohae, A malaila no o hea aku ai ke kao hihiu i kona hoa, A malaila no hoi e noho ai ka lapu o ka po, A e loaa hoi kahi hoomaha nona.
The wild-cats shall fall upon the wolves, And the satyr shall call to his fellow; There also shall the night-spectre light, And find a place of rest.
15 Malaila no e hana'i ka moolele i kona punana, A hanau, a hoomoe, a hoopunana malalo o kona malu; Malaila no hoi e akoakoa ai na vuletura, O kela mea keia mea, me kona hoa.
There also shall the arrow-snake make her nest, and lay her eggs; She shall hatch them, and gather her young under her shadow: There also shall the vultures be gathered together, Every one with her mate.
16 E imi oukou ma ka palapala a Iehova, a e heluhelu no hoi; Aole e haule kekahi o keia mau mea, Aole e nele kekahi i kona hoa; No ka mea, ua olelo no ko'u waha, A na kona Uhane no lakou i hoiliili.
Search ye the book of Jehovah, and read! Not one of these shall fail; Not one shall want her mate; For His mouth, it shall command, And His spirit, it shall gather them.
17 Ua hailona oia no lakou, A ua puunaue aku oia ia wahi ma ke kaula no lakou; E lilo loa aku no ia aina no lakou, E noho no lakou malaila, ia hanauna aku, a ia hanauna aku.
He shall cast the lot for them; His hand shall divide it for them with a line; They shall possess it forever; From generation to generation shall they dwell therein.
