< Isaia 6 >

1 I KA makahiki i make ai ke alii, o Uzia, ike aku la au i ka Haku, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii kiekie, i hapaiia, a piha ka luakini i kona hua lole.
In the year of the death of king Uzziah, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.
2 Ku mai la maluna, ma o na la, na Serapima; he paono, he paono na eheu ia lakou a pau. Me na mea elua ia i uhi ai i kona maka, me na mea elua ia i uhi ai i kona mau wawae, a me na mea elua ia i lele ai.
Seraphim were standing above him: each had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he flew.
3 A hea ae la kekahi i kekahi, Ihiihi, ihiihi, ihiihi no o Iehova o na kaua. Ua piha ka honua i kona nani.
And one called to the other and said, Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!
4 Haalulu na paepaepuka, i ka leo o ka mea nana i hea, a piha iho la ka hale i ka uwahi.
And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Alaila, olelo iho la au, Auwe au! ua make au; no ka mea, he kanaka lehelehe haumia au, a ke noho nei au iwaena o ka lahuikanaka lehelehe haumia; no ka mea, na ike ko'u mau maka i ke alii, ia Iehova o na kaua.
And I said, Woe unto me! for I am undone; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of hosts.
6 A lele mai la kekahi o na Serapima io'u nei, aia ma kona lima ka pohaku enaena, ana i lawe ai, mai ke kuahu mai, me na upa ahi.
And one of the seraphim flew unto me, and he had in his hand a glowing coal, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
7 A hoopa mai la ma kuu waha, i mai la, Aia hoi, ua hoopa keia ma kou mau lehelehe, ua laweia kou hewa, ua kalaia kou hala.
and he made it touch my mouth, and said, Behold, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
8 A lohe iho la no hoi au i ka leo o ka Haku, i ka i ana mai, Iawai la wau e hoouna aku ai? A owai ka mea nana e hele no kakou? Alaila, i aku la au, Eia no wau, e hoouna ia'u.
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Here am I; send me.
9 I mai la ia, O hele, e olelo aku i keia poe kanaka, I ka lohe ana, e lohe no oukou, aole nae e hoomaopopo, I ka ike ana, e ike no, aole nae e akaka ka ike ana.
And he said, Go; and thou shalt say unto this people, Hearing ye shall hear and shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see and shall not perceive.
10 E hoopalaka i ka naau o keia poe kanaka, E hookuli i ko lakou pepeiao, A e hoopaa i ko lakou maka; O ike ko lakou mau maka, A lohe hoi ko lakou mau pepeiao, A hoomaopopo ko lakou naau, A huli lakou, a hoolaia mai lakou.
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and blind their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and healed.
11 Alaila, i aku la au, E ka Haku, pehea ka loihi? I mai la ia, A neoneo na kulanakauhale, aohe mea noho iloko, A kanaka ole ko lakou hale, A anai loa ia'ku ka aina,
And I said, Lord, how long? And he said, Until the cities be wasted, without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land become an utter desolation,
12 A lawe loihi aku o Iehova i na kanaka, A mahuahua ka olohelohe ana mawaenakonu o ka aina;
and Jehovah have removed men far away, and the solitude be great in the midst of the land.
13 Ina i koe kekahi hapaumi o na mea, E anai loa ia'ku no ia. Aka, e like me ka laau hukaa, a me ka oka, I ka wa i kuaia, ua koe no ke kumu; Pela no e lilo ai kekahi mamo hemolele, I kumu hoolaha no lakou.
But a tenth part shall still be therein, and it shall return and be eaten; as the terebinth and as the oak whose trunk [remaineth] after the felling: the holy seed shall be the trunk thereof.
