Isaia 61
1 EIA no maluna o'u ka Uhane o Iehova, ka Haku, No ka mea, ua poni mai o Iehova ia'u, E hai i ka olelo maikai i ka poe hoohaahaa; Ua hoouna mai oia ia'u e wahi i ha naau ehaeha, E hai aku i ke kuu ana no ka poe i pio, A me ka wehe ana o ka halepaahao no ka poe i paa;
The Spirit of the Lord God is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to announce liberation to the captives, to set the prisoners free,
2 E hai aku hoi i ka makahiki oluolu no Iehova, A me ka la o ka inaina o ko kakou Akua; E hoomaha hoi i ka poe i kaniuhu;
to declare the year of the Lord's grace and the day of our God's punishment, to comfort those who mourn.
3 A e kokua aku i ka poe i u ma Ziona, E haawi i kahiko ma kahi o ka lehu, A me ka manoi o ka olioli no ke kaniuhu ana; A me ka aahu o ka hauoli hoi no ka naau kaumaha: I kapaia lakou, He mau oka no ka pono, O ke kanu ana hoi a Iehova, i hoonaniia'i oia.
The Lord will give to everyone who mourns in Zion a crown instead of ashes on their head, the oil of happiness instead of mourning, clothes of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of integrity, planted by the Lord to reveal his glory.
4 E hana hou no lakou i na wahi i anaiia mamua, A e hoala hou no lakou i na mea i hoohiolo kahiko ia, A e kukulu hou lakou i na kulanakauhale i wawahiia, I na mea neoneo hoi o na hanauna he nui loa.
They will rebuild the old ruins; they will restore places abandoned long ago; they will restore towns that were destroyed, places left desolate for generation after generation.
5 A e ku mai no na malihini, a e hanai i ka oukou poe holoholona, A e lilo na keiki a ke kanaka e, i poe mahiai, a i poe paipai waina na oukou.
Foreigners will shepherd your flocks, and take care of your fields, and look after your vineyards.
6 Aka, e kapaia oukou, Na kahuna o Iehova, E olelo no lakou ia oukou, He poe lawelawe na ko kakou Akua; E ai no oukou i ka waiwai o ko na aina e, A ma ko lakou nani oukou e kaena'i.
You will be called priests of the Lord, identified as ministers of our God. You will enjoy the wealth of nations and be proud that you have it.
7 No ko oukou hilahila, a e uku palua ia oukou, A no ka hoopalaimaka e olioli lakou i ko lakou kuleana; Nolaila, ma ko lakou aina, e loaa palua lakou, E loaa no ia lakou ka olioli mau loa.
Instead of shame you will receive a double blessing; instead of insults, you will be happy to have a double amount of land given to you, and your joy will last forever.
8 No ka mea, owau o Iehova, ke makemake nei au i ka hoopono, Ua wahawaha aku au i ka mea i haoia, Ma ka oiaio, e haawi no wau i ka uku no ka lakou hana; A e hana no wau i berita mau loa me lakou.
I, the Lord, love what is right. I hate robbery and injustice. I will faithfully reward my people and make an everlasting agreement with them.
9 A e kaulana auanei ka lakou hanauna iwaena o ko na aina e, A me ka lakou poe keiki, iwaena o na lahuikanaka; O ka poe a pau e ike ia lakou, e hoomaopopo no ia lakou, O lakou ka hanauna a Iehova i hoopomaikai ai.
Their descendants will be acknowledged among the nations, and their children among the peoples. Everyone who sees them will agree that they are people that the Lord has blessed.
10 E olioli nui au ia Iehova, E hauoli no ko'u uhane ma ko'u Akua; No ka mea, ua hoaahu mai oia ia'u i na aahu o ke ola, Ua uhi mai oia ia'u i ka holoku o ka pono, E like me ka hoonani ana o ke kanemare ia ia iho i na kahiko, E like hoi me ka wahinemare i kahikoia i kona mea gula.
I will happily celebrate in the Lord! My whole being will shout praises to my God. For he has dressed me with the clothing of salvation, and has wrapped around me in a robe of goodness. I am like a bridegroom dressed for the wedding, like a bride wearing her jewels.
11 No ka mea, e like me ka honua i hoopuka mai ai i kona muo, E like hoi me ka mahinaai i houlu i na mea i luluia maloko ona, Pela no o Iehova ka Haku e hoopuka mai ai i ka pono, a me ka nani, imua o ko na aina a pau.
Just as the earth sends up shoots, and plants grow in a garden, so the Lord makes goodness and praise grow before all nations.
