< Isaia 38 >

1 I A mau la, he mai make ko Hezekia; a hele mai la o Isaia, ke kaula, ke keiki a Amosa io na la, i mai la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, E kauoha oe i ko kou hale, no ka mea, e make ana oe, aole oe e ola.
In those days Hezekiah fell sick unto death; and there came unto him Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Give thy charge to thy house; for thou shalt die, and not live.
2 Alaila, huli ae la o Hezekia i kona maka ma ka paia, a pule aku la ia Iehova,
Then did Hezekiah turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord.
3 I aku la ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, ano la e hoomanao oe i ko'u hele ana imua ou ma ka oiaio, me ka naau pono, a ua hana i ka maikai ma kou alo. A uwe iho la o Hezekia, he uwe nui loa.
And he said, O Lord, I beseech thee remember now that I have walked before thee in truth, and with an undivided heart, and have done what is good in thy eyes. And Hezekiah wept aloud.
4 Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io lsaia la, i mai la,
Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
5 O hele, e olelo aku ia Hezekia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o Davida, kou kupuna, penei, Ua lohe au i kau pule, a ua ike no wau i kou waimaka; aia hoi, e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la, i umikumamalima makahiki.
Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6 A e hoopakele no wau ia oe, a me keia kulanakauhale mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria, a na'u no e malama i keia kulanakauhale.
And out of the hand of the king of Assyria will I deliver thee and this city; and I will shield this city.
7 Eia hoi ka hoailona nou, mai Iehova mai, e hana io mai no o Iehova i ka mea ana i olelo mai ai;
And this shall be unto thee the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing which he hath spoken:
8 Aia hoi, e hoihoi ihope no au i ke aka o na degere ana i iho ai ma ka mea ana hora o Ahaza, he umi degere ka hoi hope ana. A hoi hope io no ka la i umi degere, o na degere hoi ana i iho ai ilalo.
Behold, I will cause the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down on the dial of Achaz by the sun, to return backward ten degrees. So the sun returned ten degrees, by the degrees which he was gone down.
9 Ke mele a Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda, mahope iho o kona mai ana, a ua ola hoi i kona mai.
The writing of Hezekiah the king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:
10 Olelo iho la au, E komo ana au i na puka o ka malumake, Mawaena konu o ko'u mau la; Ua hooneleia mai au i ke koena o ko'u mau makahiki. (Sheol h7585)
I had said, In the midst of my days, must I enter the gates of the nether world; I am deprived of the residue of my years. (Sheol h7585)
11 I iho la au, aole au e ike aku ia Iehova, Ia Iehova hoi, ma ka aina o ka poe e ola ana; Aole au e ike hou i ke kanaka mawaena o ka poe e noho la ma ka malumake.
I had said, I shall not see the Lord, the Lord, in the land of the living: I shall not behold man any more among the inhabitants of the regions of death.
12 Ua laweia ko'u wahi noho, Ua kaikaiia'ku la, mai o'u aku nei, e like me ka halelewa o ke kahuhipa, Ua hooki au i ko'u ola ana, e like me ka mea ulana lole, Ua oki mai oia ia'u mai ka omau ana; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana oe ia'u.
My dwelling is broken down, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off, like a weaver, my life; with pining sickness will he snatch me away: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.
13 Hoomaha ino la au a kakahiaka, E like me ka liona, pela no oia i uhaki ai i ko'u mau iwi a pau; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana no oe ia'u.
I waited [with patience] till morning, [whether] as a lion, so would he break all my bones: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.
14 E like me ka manu u, a me ka manu ioio, Pela no wau i ioio ai. Kaniuhu no wau e like me ka manu nunu; Maule hoi ko'u mau maka i ka nana ana iluna; E ka Haku, ua pilikia au, e kokua mai oe ia'u.
Like a swallow or a crane, so did I chirp; I did moan like a dove; my eyes were lifted up on high: O Lord, I am oppressed; grant me ease.
15 Heaha ka'u e olelo aku ai? No ka mea, ua olelo mai oia ia'u, a ua hana io mai no oia: E hele malie no wau i ko'u mau makahiki a pau, No ke kaumaha loa o kuu uhane.
What shall I speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages [to God's house] all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.
16 E ka Haku, no keia mau mea i ola'i na kanaka, Maloko o ka popilikia a pau, ua ola no kuu uhane; Ua hoopau oe i ko'u mai, ua hoola mai oe ia'u
O Lord, by these [things men] will live, and in all these [things] is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause me to live.
17 Aia hoi, ua hoololi mai oia i ko'u kaumaha loa i oluolu, Aloha mai no oe, a hoopakele mai ia'u, mai ka lua mai o ka make; No ka mea, ua kiola aku oe i ko'u hewa a pau mahope o kou kua.
Behold, for peace I had great bitterness; but thou hast, in loving my soul, delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast behind thy back all my sins.
18 Aole hiki i ko ka po ke hoomaikai aku ia oe, Aole hoi e hoolea aku ka poe make ia oe; O ka poe iho ilalo i ka lua, Aole hiki ia lakou ke manaolana. (Sheol h7585)
For the nether world will not thank thee, death will not praise thee: they that go down into the pit will not hope for thy truth. (Sheol h7585)
19 O ka mea ola, ka mea ola, Nana no e hoomaikai aku ia oe, me au nei i keia la; E hoike no ka makua i na keiki i kou oiaio.
The living, the living alone shall thank thee, like me this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
20 Malaila no o Iehova, e hoola mai ai ia'u, Nolaila kakou e hookanikani ai i ko'u mau viola, I na la a pau o ko kakou ola ana, maloko o ka hale o Iehova.
The Lord is there to help me; therefore we will play my hymns all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
21 No ka mea, ua olelo no o Isaia, e lawe lakou i pai fiku maloo, a e kau maluna o ka eha, a e ola no ia.
And Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the inflammation, and he shall recover.
22 Ua ninau no hoi o Hezekia, Heaha ka hoailona e maopopo ai ko'u pii ana i ka hale o Iehova?
And Hezekiah had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?
