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 thou barren, that didst not hear! Break forth into singing, and shout for joy, thou that wast not in travail! For more are the children of the desolate Than of the married woman, saith Jehovah.
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 the canopy of thy habitation be extended! Spare not; lengthen thy cords, And make fast 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 on the right hand and on the left shalt thou burst forth with increase; And thy posterity shall inherit the nations, And people the desolate cities.
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 confounded; Blush not, for thou shalt not be put to shame. For thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, And the reproach of thy widowhood thou shalt remember no 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 husband is thy Maker; Jehovah of hosts is his name. Thy redeemer is 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 as a woman forsaken, and deeply afflicted, hath Jehovah recalled thee, And as a wife wedded in youth, that hath been rejected, 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 little moment I have forsaken thee, But with great mercy 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 overflowing wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment. But with everlasting kindness will I have mercy upon thee, Saith thy redeemer, Jehovah.
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.
As in the time of the waters of Noah, so shall it be now; As I swore that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, So do I swear that I will not be angry 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 overthrown, But my kindness shall not depart from thee, Nor shall my covenant of peace be overthrown, Saith Jehovah, that hath pity 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, beaten with the storm, destitute of consolation! Behold, I lay thy stones in cement of vermilion, And 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 battlements of rubies, And thy gates of carbuncles, And all thy borders fill of precious stones.
13 E aoia no hoi kau mau keiki a pau e Iehova, A e nui loa auanei ka pomaikai o kau mau keiki.
All thy children shall be taught by Jehovah, And great shall be the prosperity 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.
By righteousness shalt thou be established; Be thou far from anxiety, for thou shalt have nothing to 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.
If any be leagued against thee, it is not by my command; Whoever shall be leagued against thee shall come over to thee.
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 create the smith, Who bloweth up the coals into a fire, And produceth an instrument for his work; I also create the destroyer to lay waste.
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.
Whatever weapon is formed against thee, it shall not prosper; And against every tongue that contendeth with thee, thou shalt obtain thy cause. This is the inheritance of the servants of Jehovah, And the blessing which they receive from me, saith Jehovah.
