Isaia 37
1 A LOHE o Hezekia, ke alii, haehae iho la oia i kona lole, a uhi iho la ia ia iho i ke kapa ino, a komo aku la iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
And when the king, Hezekiah, heard it, he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Jehovah.
2 A hoouna ae la oia ia Eliakima, i ka mea maluna o ko ka hale, a me Sebena, i ke kakauolelo, a me na luna o na kahuna me ka uhiia i ke kapa ino, io Isaia la, i ke kaula, i ke keiki a Amosa.
And he sent Eliakim, who was over the palace, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
3 I ae la lakou ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Hezekia penei, He la popilikia keia, he la no ka hoopai ana, a me ka olelo hoino; no ka mea, ua hiki na keiki i ke kokoke hemo, aole nae he ikaika e hanau ai.
And they said to him, Thus saith Hezekiah: This day is a day of distress, of rebuke, and of contempt; for the children have come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 Malia paha e lohe o Iehova, kou Akua, i na olelo a Rabesake, ka mea a ke alii o Asuria, a kona haku i hoouna'i e hoino ai i ke Akua ola, a e hoopai hoi i na olelo a Iehova a kou Akua i lohe ai. Nolaila, e pule aku oe no ke koena o na kanaka i ikeia.
It may be that Jehovah, thy God, will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria, his master, hath sent to reproach the living God, and to revile him with the words which Jehovah, thy God, hath heard. Do thou, therefore, lift up thy prayer for the remnant of the people, that is yet left.
5 A hiki ae la na kauwa a ke alii, a Hezekia io Isaia la.
And the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 I mai la o Isaia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai i ko oukou haku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei. Mai makau oe i na olelo au i lohe ai, i na olelo a na kauwa a ke alii o Asuria i olelo hoino mai ai ia'u.
And Isaiah said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master: Thus saith Jehovah: Be not afraid on account of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Aia hoi, e haawi aku no au ia ia i manao, a e lohe no oia i ka lono, a e hoi aku i kona aina iho: a na'u no ia e hookulai i ka pahikaua ma kona aina iho.
Behold, I will put a spirit within him, so that he shall hear a rumor, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 Hoi aku la o Rabesake, a loaa ia ia ke alii o Asuria, e kaua ana ia Libena; ua lohe mua no hoi oia, ua haalele ia ia Lakisa.
Then Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah, for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
9 Alaila, lohe ae la oia ia Tirehaka, i ke alii o Aitiopa, i ka i ana mai, Ke hele mai nei ia e kana ia oe. A i kona lohe ana, hoouna mai la ia i mau elele ia Hezekia, i mai la,
Then he heard concerning Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, that it was said, “He is come forth to war against thee.” And when he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah and said,
10 Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Hezekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, e i aku, Mai walewale oe i kou Akua au e hilinai nei, i kana olelo ana, Aole e haawiia o Ierusalema iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria.
Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah, the king of Judah: Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Aia hoi, ua lohe no oe i ka mea a na alii o Asuria i hana'i i na aina a pau, i ka luku loa ana ia lakou; a e hoopakeleia anei oe?
Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands; how they have utterly destroyed them. And shalt thou be delivered?
12 Ua hoopakele anei na'kua o na aina i ka poe a ko'u mau makuakane i luku ai; ia Gozana, a me Harana, a me Rezepa, a me na keiki a Edena, ka poe ma Telasara?
Did the gods of the nations which my father destroyed, deliver them? Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden in Telassar?
13 Auhea ke alii o Hamata, a me ke alii o Arepada, a me ke alii o ke kulanakauhale o Separevaima, a me Hena, a me Iva?
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Henah, and of Ivah?
14 Loaa ia Hezekia ia mau palapala ma ka lima o na elele, a heluhelu iho la. Pii aku la o Hezekia i ka hale o Iehova, a haalii aku la imua o Iehova.
And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it. Then he went up to the house of Jehovah, and spread it before Jehovah.
15 Pule aku la o Hezekia ia Iehova, i aku la,
And Hezekiah prayed before Jehovah, saying,
16 E Iehova o na kaua, e ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea noho ma na kerubima, o oe no ke Akua, o oe wale no, no na aupuni a pau o ka honua; nau no i hana i ka lani, a me ka honua.
O Jehovah of hosts, God of Israel, who sittest between the cherubs, thou alone art the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.
17 E haliu mai kou pepeiao, e Iehova, a e hoolohe mai hoi; E wehe oe i kou mau maka, e Iehova, a e naua mai; e hoolohe hoi i na olelo a pau a Sanekariba, na mea ana i hoouka mai ai e hoino i ke Akua ola.
Incline thine ear, O Jehovah, and hear; open thine eyes, O Jehovah, and see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he hath sent to reproach the living God.
18 He oiaio, e Iehova, ua luku aku no na'lii o Asuria i na lahuikanaka a pau, a me ko lakou aina;
In truth, O Jehovah, the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the nations, and their lands,
19 A ua kiola aku no i ko lakou akua iloko o ke ahi, no ka mea, he mau akua ole lakou, he hana na na lima o kanaka, he laau, a he pohaku; nolaila lakou i luku aku ai ia mau mea.
and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were not gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; and they have destroyed them.
20 Ano la, e Iehova ko makou Akua, e hoola mai oe ia makou mai kona lima ae, i ike na aupuni a pau o ka honua, o oe no o Iehova, o oe wale no.
But do thou, O Jehovah, our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou alone art Jehovah.
21 Alaila, hoouna ae la o Isaia, ke keiki a Amosa io Hezekia la, i ae la, Ke i mai nei o Iehova. ke A kua o ka Iseraela penei, No kau pule ana mai ia'u no Sanekariba, ke alii o Asuria;
Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Whereas thou hast prayed to me on account of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria,
22 Eia ka olelo a Iehova i olelo mai ai nona; Ua hoowahawaha ke kaikamahine puupaa o Ziona ia oe, Ua henehene aku ia oe; O ke kaikamahine hoi o Ierusalema, Ua luliluli oia i kona poo ia oe.
This is the word which Jehovah hath spoken against him. The virgin, the daughter of Zion, despiseth thee; she laugheth thee to scorn; The daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head after thee.
23 Owai kou mea i hoowahawaha ai, A olelo hoino aku ai no hoi? Ua hookiekie oe i kou leo maluna owai, A alawa hoi i kou mau maka iluna lilo, Maluna no o ka Mea Hoano o ka Iseraela?
Whom hast thou reproached, and reviled, And against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, And lifted up thine eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel.
24 Ua hoowahawaha oe i ka Haku ma kau mau kauwa, i ka i ana mai, No ka lehulehu o na kaakaua o'u, Ua pii aku no wau i kahi kiekie o na mauna, I na aoao hoi o Lebanona; E kua aku no wau i kolaila mau laau kedera kiekie, A me kolaila mau laau kaa maikai; A e komo aku no wau i kona wahi kiekie, A i ka welau o kahi nahelehele o kona mahinaai.
By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and said: “With the multitude of my chariots have I ascended the heights of the mountains, the extremities of Lebanon; I have cut down its tall cedars, and its choice cypress-trees; I have come to its utmost height, to its garden forest.
25 Ua kohi no wau a ua inu hoi i ka wai; A i ke kapuwai o ko'u mau wawae, ua hoomaloo aku no wau i na auwai o Aigupita.
I have digged and drunk water, And with the sole of my feet will I dry up all the rivers of Egypt.”
26 Aole anei oe i lohe kahiko na'u ia i manao, A na'u hoi ia i hana i na la mamua? A i keia manawa, ua hooko no wau, I lilo oe i mea e hookahuli ai i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa, i puu pohaku.
Hast thou not heard, that of old I ordained it, And from ancient times purposed it? Now have I brought it to pass, That thou shouldst convert fortified cities into ruinous heaps.
27 Nolaila i uuku ai ka ikaika o ka poe e noho ana, Ua makau hoi lakou a pilihua. Like no lakou me ka mauu o ke kula, Ua like hoi me ka nahele uliuli; Me ka mauu maluna o na hale, Me ka hua palaoa malili i kona wa e ku ana.
Therefore were their inhabitants of little strength; They were dismayed and confounded; They were as the grass of the field, and the green herb; As grass upon the house-top, and as corn blasted, before it is grown up.
28 Aka, ua ike no wau i kou noho ana, A me kou puka ana iwaho, a me kou komo ana iloko, a me kou ukiuki ana ia'u.
I know thy sitting down, thy going out, and thy coming in, And thy rage against me.
29 No ka mea, o kou ukiuki mai ia'u, a me kou hookiekie, Ua pii mai no, a iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao; Nolaila, e hookomo no wau i ko'u lou iloko o kou ihu, A me ko'u kaulawaha ma kou mau lehelehe. A e hoohuli aku no au ia oe ma ke ala au i hele mai ai.
Because thy rage against me, and thy insolence, is come up into my ears, I will put my ring into thy nose, And my bridle into thy lips, And turn thee back by the way in which thou camest.
30 E lilo no hoi keia i hoailona nou; E ai no oukou i keia makahiki i na mea ulu wale, A i ka lua o ka makahiki, i na mea i ulu ae mai ia mau mea mai: A i ke kolu o ka makahiki, e lulu hua oukou, a e hoiliili hua hoi, E kanu no hoi oukou i na pawaina, a e ai iho i kolaila hua.
And this shall be the sign to thee; Eat this year that which groweth of itself, And in the second year that which groweth of itself, And in the third year ye shall sow and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.
31 A o ke koena i pakele o ka hale o ka Iuda, E komo no kona aa ilalo, A e hua mai i ka hua maluna.
And the remnant of the house of Judah, that have escaped, Shall again strike root downward, And bear fruit upward.
32 No ka mea, mai loko aku o Ierusalema e puka aku ke koena, A o ka poe pakele hoi, mai loko aku o ka mauna Ziona: Na ka ikaika o Iehova o na kaua e hana i keia,
For from Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, And they that have escaped from mount Zion. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.
33 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova no ke alii o Asuria, Aole ia e komo iloko o keia kulanakauhale, Aole ia e pana mai i kekahi pua malaila, Aole hoi e hoike i na palekaua imua ona, Aole hoi e hana i puukaua ma kona alo.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts concerning the king of Assyria; He shall not come into this city, Nor shoot an arrow into it; He shall not present a shield before it, Nor cast up a mound against it.
34 Ma ke ala ana i hele mai ai, malaila no ia e hoi aku, Aole ia e komo iloko o keia kulanakauhale, wahi a Iehova.
By the way in which he came, by the same shall he return, And into this city shall he not come, saith Jehovah.
35 Na'u no e malama i keia kulanakauhale, e hoola aku no'u iho, A no ka'u kauwa, no Davida.
For I will defend this city, and deliver it, For mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
36 Hele ae la ka anela o Iehova, a laku aku la maloko o kahi hoomoana o ko Asuria, hookahi haneri me kanawalu kumamalima tausani. A ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, aia hoi! he poe kupapau make lakou a pau.
Then an angel of Jehovah went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men; and when the people arose early in the morning, behold they were all dead corpses.
37 Alaila, hele aku la o Sanekariba, ke alii o Asura, a haalele ae la ia wahi, a hoi aku la, a noho iho la ma Nineva.
Then Sennacherib, king of Assyria, decamped, and went away, and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
38 A i kona hoomana ana maloko o ka hale o Niseroka, o kona akua, alaila, pepehi iho la kana mau keikikane, o Aderameleka a me Sarezera ia ia i ka pahikaua; a pakele aku la laua maloko o ka aina o Ararata, a noho alii iho la kana keiki, o Esarehadona ma kona wahi.
And as he was worshipping in the temple of Nisroch, his god, he was slain with the sword by his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer, who escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon, his son, reigned in his stead.
