< 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.
Come near, ye nations, to hear, And ye peoples, give attention, Hear doth the earth and its fulness, The world, and all its productions.
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 wrath [is] to Jehovah against all the nations, And fury against all their host, He hath devoted them to destruction, He hath given them 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.
And their wounded are cast out, And their carcases cause their stench to ascend, And melted have been mountains from 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 consumed have been all the host of the heavens, And rolled together as a book have been the heavens, And all their hosts do fade, As the fading of a leaf of a vine, And as the fading one of a 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 soaked in the heavens was My sword, Lo, on Edom it cometh down, On the people of My curse for judgment.
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.
A sword [is] to Jehovah — it hath been full of blood, It hath been made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and he-goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, For a sacrifice [is] to Jehovah 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.
And come down have reems with them, And bullocks with bulls, And soaked hath been their land from blood, And their dust from fatness is made 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 a day of vengeance [is] to Jehovah, A year of recompences for Zion's strife, )
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.
And turned have been her streams to pitch, And her dust to brimstone, And her land hath 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.
By night and by day she is not quenched, To the age go up doth her smoke, From generation to generation she is waste, For ever and ever, none is passing into her.
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.
And possess her do pelican and hedge-hog, And owl and raven dwell in her, And He hath stretched out over her A line of vacancy, and stones of emptiness.
12 Aole e hea hou ia na'lii malaila no ko aupuni, A e lilo no kona poe luna a pau i mea ole.
[To] the kingdom her freemen they call, But there are none there, And all her princes are at an end.
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.
And gone up her palaces have thorns, Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, And it hath been a habitation of dragons, A court for daughters of an ostrich.
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.
And met have Ziim with Aiim, And the goat for its companion calleth, Only there rested hath the night-owl, And hath found for herself 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 made her nest hath the bittern, Yea, she layeth, and hath hatched, And hath gathered under her shadow, Only there gathered have been vultures, Each with its companion.
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.
Seek out of the book of Jehovah, and read, One of these hath not been lacking, None hath missed its companion, For My mouth — it hath commanded, And His spirit — He hath gathered 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.
And He hath cast for them a lot, And His hand hath apportioned [it] to them by line, Unto the age they possess it, To all generations they dwell in it!
