< Isaia 52 >
1 E ALA, e ala, e aahu i kou ikaika, e Ziona; E komo i kou mau lole nani, e Ierusalema, Ke kulanakauhale laa; No ka mea, ma keia wa aku, aole e hele hou iloko ou, ka mea i okipoepoe ole ia, a me ka haumia.
Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion, Put on the garments of thy beauty, Jerusalem — the Holy City; For enter no more into thee again, Do the uncircumcised and unclean.
2 E lulu oe ia oe iho no ka lepo, E ku iluna, a e noho ilalo, e Ierusalema; E wehe oe i na mea paa o kau a-i, e ke kaikamahine pio o Ziona.
Shake thyself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of thy neck have loosed themselves, O captive, daughter of Zion.
3 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Ua kuai make hewa aku oukou ia oukou iho; A e hoolapauaiia oukou, aole nae i ke kala.
For thus said Jehovah: 'For nought ye have been sold, And not by money are ye redeemed.'
4 No ka mea, ke i mai nei o Iehova, ka Haku, penei, I kinohi, iho no ko'u poe kanaka ilalo i Aigupita, e noho iki malaila, A hookaumaha kumu ole ko Asuria ia lakou.
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: 'To Egypt My people went down at first to sojourn there, And Asshur — for nought he hath oppressed it.
5 Heaha hoi ka'u ianei i keia wa, wahi a Iehova, I lawe make hewa ia'ku ko'u poe kanaka? E aoa auanei ko lakou poe luna, wahi a Iehova; Ua hoowahawaha mau ia ko'u inoa i na la a pau.
And now, what — to Me here, An affirmation of Jehovah, That taken is My people for nought? Its rulers cause howling, — an affirmation of Jehovah, And continually all the day My name is despised.
6 Nolaila, e ike auanei ko'u poe kanaka i ko'u inoa; Nolaila hoi, e ike no lakou i kela la, Owau no ka mea nana e olelo; aia hoi, owau no.
Therefore doth My people know My name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I [am] He who is speaking, behold Me.'
7 Nani wale hoi ma na mauna, na wawae o ka mea hai i ka euanelio, Ka mea hoolaha i ka malu, Ka mea hai i ka euanelio maikai, Ka mea hoikeike i ke ola, Ka mea olelo ia Ziona, Ke malama aupuni nei kou Akua!
How comely on the mountains, Have been the feet of one proclaiming tidings, Sounding peace, proclaiming good tidings, Sounding salvation, Saying to Zion, 'Reigned hath thy God.'
8 O kou poe kiai, hookiekie lakou i ka leo, Hookani pu no ka leo o lakou; No ka mea, e ike auanei lakou, he maka no, he maka, Ke hoihoi mai o Iehova ia Ziona.
The voice of thy watchmen! They have lifted up the voice, together they cry aloud, Because eye to eye they see, in Jehovah's turning back [to] Zion.
9 E hookani olioli oukou, e olioli pu, E na wahi neoneo o Ierusalema; No ka mea, ua hoomaha mai o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, Ua hoolapanai oia ia Ierusalema.
Break forth, sing together, O wastes of Jerusalem, For Jehovah hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Ua hoike o Iehova i kona lima hemolele imua o na maka o na lahuikanaka a pau; A e ike auanei na kukulu a pau o ka honua i ka hoola ana o ko kakou Akua.
Jehovah hath made bare His holy arm Before the eyes of all the nations, And seen have all the ends of the earth, The salvation of our God.
11 E hele oukou mawaho, e hele oukou mawaho, e puka aku mawaho olaila, Mai pa aku i ka mea haumia; E puka aku mai loko aku ona; E hoohuikala oukou ia oukou, e ka poe halihali i na ipu o Iehova.
Turn aside, turn aside, go out thence, The unclean touch not, go out from her midst, Be ye pure, who are bearing the weapons of Jehovah.
12 No ka mea, aole oukou e puka aku me ka holo, Aole hoi oukou e hele me ke auhee; No ka mea, e hele no o Iehova imua o oukou, A o ke Akua o ka Iseraela auanei ka mea hele mahope o oukou.
For not in haste do ye go out, Yea, with flight ye go not on, For going before you [is] Jehovah, And gathering you [is] the God of Israel!
13 Aia hoi e pomaikai ana ka'u kauwa, E hapaiia no hoi ia, a e hookiekieia, A e kiekie loa auanei oia.
Lo, My servant doth act wisely, He is high, and hath been lifted up, And hath been very high.
14 Nui no ka poe i haohao ia oe, No ka mea, ua oi aku ka mainoino o kona helehelena mamua o ko ke kanaka, A me kona hiona hoi mamna o ko na keiki a kanaka.
As astonished at thee have been many, (So marred by man his appearance, And his form by sons of men.)
15 Pela no oia e pipi ai i na lahuikanaka, he nui loa; E hoopaa na'lii i ko lakou waha imua ona; No ka mea, e ike auanei lakou i ka mea i hai ole ia ia lakou, A e noonoo pono lakou i ka mea a lakou i lohe ole ai.
So doth he sprinkle many nations. Concerning him kings shut their mouth, For that which was not recounted to them they have seen, And that which they had not heard they have understood!
