Isaia 54

1 E OLI oe, e ka mea pa, ka mea i hanau ole hoi; E oli i ke oli, a e hauoli hoi, e ka mea kuakoko ole; No ka mea, ua nui aku na keiki a ka mea i neoneo, i na keiki a ka wahine i mareia, wahi a Iehova.

Sing, O barren, thou [that] didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou [that] didst not travail with child: for more [are] the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.

2 A hoakea i kahi o kou halelewa, E hoopalahalaha hoi lakou i na paku o kou wahi e noho ai; Mai aua, e hooloihi i kou mau kaula, E hoopaa loa hoi i kou mau makia;

Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

3 No ka mea, e poha aku auanei oe, ma ka lima akau, a ma ka lima hema; A e ili mai ko na aina na kau poe mamo, A ia lakou no e hoonohoia na kulanakauhale neoneo.

For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

4 Mai makau oe, no ka mea, aole oe e hilahila, Mai hoopalaimaka, no ka mea, aole oe hoohilahilaia; E hoopoina no hoi oe i ka hilahila o kou wa opiopio, Aole hoi e mauao hou i ka hoowahawahaia o kou noho wahine kane make ana.

Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

5 No ka mea, o ka mea nana oe i hana, oia kau kane, O Iehova o na kaua kona inoa; A o kou Hoolapanai, o ka Mea Hemolele ia o ka Iseraela; E kapaia no hoi oia, ke Akua o ka honua a pau.

For thy Maker [is] thine husband; the LORD of hosts [is] his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

6 No ka mea, ua hea aku o Iehova ia oe, E like me ka wahine i haaleleia, a kaumaha hoi ma ka naau, Ka wahine hoi i ka wa opiopio; No ka mea, e hooleia oia, wahi a ke Akua ou.

For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.

7 No ka manawa uuku, ua haalele aku au ia oe; Aka, me ka lokomaikai he nui loa, e hoiliili au ia oe.

For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

8 I ka hu ana o ka huhu, huna no wau i ko'u maka ia oe i kekahi minute; Aka, me ke aloha mau loa, e lokomaikai aku ai au ia oe, Wahi a Iehova, kou Hoolapanai.

In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

9 No ka mea, e like me na wai o Noa, pela no keia ia'u; Me au i hoohiki ai, aole e hoohalana hou na wai o Noa i ka honua, Pela no wau i hoohiki ai, aole au e huhu aku ia oe, Aole hoi au e paipai ikaika aku ia oe.

For this [is as] the waters of Noah unto me: for [as] I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

10 No ka mea, e lilo auanei na kuahiwi, A e hooneeneeia na mauna; Aka, aole e lilo aku ko'u lokomaikai, Aole hoi e hooneeneeia ka berita o ko'u malu, Wahi a Iehova, ka mea i aloha mai ia oe.

For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

11 E ka mea popilikia i hooalealeia, Aole hoi i alohaia! E hoonoho wau i kou mau pohaku maloko o ka pena, A e hookumu wau ia oe ma ua pohaku sapeiro.

O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, [and] not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

12 A hana no wau i kou mau puupuu kaua i pohaku paea, A me kou mau pukapa i pohaku ula, A me kou mau mokuna a pau i pohaku maikai.

And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.

13 E aoia no hoi kau mau keiki a pau e Iehova, A e nui loa auanei ka pomaikai o kau mau keiki.

And all thy children [shall be] taught of the LORD; and great [shall be] the peace of thy children.

14 Ma ka pono no oe e hookumuia'i: E mamao aku oe i ka hookaumaha, No ka mea, aole oe e makau ana; A i ka weliweli hoi, no ka mea, aole ia e hookokoke mai ia oe.

In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

15 Aia hoi, e hookipikipi no lakou, aole nae mamuli o ka'u olelo ana, O ka mea kipi aku ia oe, e haule no ia mamuli ou.

Behold, they shall surely gather together, [but] not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

16 Aia hoi, na'u no i hana i ka amara nana e puhi i ka lanahu i ke ahi, A hoopuka mai la oia i mea hana no kana hana; A na'u hoi i hana i ka mea make e make ai.

Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

17 O na mea hoeha a pau i hanaia e ku e ia oe, aole lakou e lanakila, A o na elelo a pau e ala mai e ku e ia oe, nau no ia e hoahewa aku. Oia ka hooilina o na kanwa a Iehova, A na'u hoi ko lakou pono, wahi a Iehova.

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue [that] shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This [is] the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness [is] of me, saith the LORD.
