Isaia 58

1 E KAHEA nui aku, mai uumi, E hookiekie i kou leo me he pu la, E hoike i ko'u poe kanaka i ko lakou hewa, A i ko ka hale o Iakoba i ko lakou hala.

"Cry aloud, do not spare, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

2 Aka, imi no lakou ia'u i kela la i keia la, A olioli lakou i ka ike ana i ko'u mau aoao, Me he lahuikanaka la i hana i ka pono, A haalele ole i ke kanawai o ko lakou Akua. Ninau mai no lakou ia'u i ka hooponopono pololei ana, A olioli lakou i ka hookokoke ana i ke Akua.

Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways: as a nation that did righteousness, and did not forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.

3 No ke aha la makou i hookeai ai, a ike ole mai oe, wahi a lakou? A hookaumaha makou i ko makou uhane, A ua hoomaopopo ole mai oe? Aia hoi, i ka la o ko oukou hookeai ana, Loaa no ia oukou ka lealea, Koi aku oukou i ka oukou hana a pau.

'Why have we fasted,' say they, 'and you do not see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge?' "Look, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.

4 Aia hoi, hookeai no oukou no ka paio, a me ka hakaka, I kuikui aku me ka lima hana ino: Aole hookeai oukou e like me ko keia la, I mea e loheia'i ko oukou leo maluna.

Look, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness: you do not fast this day so as to make your voice to be heard on high.

5 O ka hookeai anei me ia ka'u i makemake ai? He la e hookaumaha ai ke kanaka i kona uhane? E hookulou hoi i kona poo ilalo, me he kaluha la? A haalii i ke kapa ino, a me ka lehu ahi? E kapa aku anei oe i keia, he hookeai, A he la oluolu no Iehova?

Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?

6 Aole anei penei, ka hookeai a'u i makemake ai? O ka wehe i na mea paa o ka hookaumaha, E hookuu iho i na haawe kaumaha, A e kuu aku hoi e hele ka poe i hookaumahain, A i uhaki no hoi oukou i na auamo a pau?

"Isn't this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?

7 Aole anei, o ka haawi aku i kau berena no ka poe pololi, A i lawe mai hoi oe ma kou hale i ka poe hune i hana ino ia? Ia oe hoi e ike ai i ka mea ku kohana, i uhi oe ia ia? I huna ole hoi oe ia oe, i kou io iho?

Isn't it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?

8 Alaila, e poha aku no kou malamalama, e like me ko ke kakahiaka, A e puka koke mai no kou ola; A e hele no kou pono ma kou alo, A o ka nani o Iehova auanei ka mea hele mahope ou.

Then your light shall break forth as the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedily; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.

9 Alaila, e hea aku no oe, a e olelo mai no o Iehova; A ina e uwe aku oe, e i mai no oia, Eia no wau. Ina e hoolei aku oe, mai ou aku, i ka auamo, A me ka o ana aku o ka manamana lima, a me ka olelo ana i ka lapuwale;

Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' "If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly;

10 Ina hu aku kou uhane i ka poe pololi, A hoomaona hoi oe i ka uhane o ka poe popilikia; Alaila, e puka mai no kou malamalama maloko o ka pouli, A e like auanei kou pouli me ke awakea:

and if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then your light shall rise in darkness, and your obscurity be as the noonday;

11 A na Iehova no e alakai mau loa ia oe, A nana no hoi e hoomaona ia oe maloko o na aina maloo, A nana no hoi e hooikaika i kou mau iwi; A e like auanei oe me ka mahinaai i hoomau maikai ia, E like hoi me ka waipuna i maloo ole na wai.

and the LORD will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and make strong your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

12 O ka poe mai loko aku ou, na lakou no e hana hou i na wahi neoneo kahiko, A e kukulu hou hoi maluna o na kumu o na hanauna he nui loa; A e kapaia no hoi oe, Ka mea hana hou i kahi naha, Ka mea hoihoi mai i na alanui, i wahi e noho ai.

Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

13 Ina e malama oe i kou wawae i ko'u la Sabati, Aole hoi e hana i kou lealea i ko'u la hoano; A kapa aku hoi i ka la Sabati, ho olioli, Ka mea hemolele o Iehova, a me ka nani; A hoomaikai hoi oe ia, me ka hana ole i kou mau aoao, Aole me ka imi i kou lealea iho, Aole hoi me ka olelo i kau mau olelo iho;

"If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honorable; and shall honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:

14 Alaila, e olioli no oe ia Iehova; A na'u no e hooholo ia oe ma na wahi kiekie o ka honua, A e hanai aku au ia oe i ka hooilina a Iakoba, a kou kupunakane; No ka mea, na ka waha o Iehova i olelo mai.

then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:" for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
