Isaia 63
1 O WAI keia e hele mai nei, mai Edoma mai? Me ka aahu i hooluuulaia, mai Bozera mai? O keia mea hoi i nani kona lole komo, E hele ana me ka manomano o kona ikaika? Owau, ka mea hai i ka pono, ka mea mana loa i ka hoola.
Who is this coming from Edom, from the town of Bozrah with clothes stained crimson? Who is this wearing robes of splendor, leaning forward in his great strength as he marches? It is me, the one who always speaks goodness and truth, the one who has the power to save.
2 No ke aha la i ulaula ai kou lole komo, A like hoi kou lole komo, me ka mea hahi maloko o kahi kaomi waina?
Why are your clothes red, like you've been treading grapes in a winepress?
3 Ua hahi no wau i kahi kaomi waina, owau wale, Aohe mea o na kanaka pu me au. E hehi no wau ia lakou i ko'u ukiuki, E hahahi no wau ia lakou i ko'u inaina. E kapipi no ko lakou koko i ko'u mau lole komo, A hoopalahea no wau i ko'u aahu a pau.
I've been treading the winepress by myself; from the nations around no one came to help me. So in my anger I trod them down as if they were grapes, in my fury I trampled them. It's their blood that has stained my clothes.
4 No ka mea, aia no iloko o ko'u naau ka la o ka hoopai ana, Ua hiki mai hoi ka makahiki o ko'u poe hoolapanaiia.
For I decided this was the day of my vengeance; the year of my redemption has come.
5 Nana aku la au, aohe mea nana e kokua; A haohao iho la au, no ka mea ole nana e koo: Nolaila, na ko'u lima no i hoola no'u iho, A o kuu inaina, oia ka i koo mai ia'u.
I looked around, but no one came to help; I was shocked that there was no one to assist me. So I saved them through my own strength alone, and my own anger kept me going.
6 Ua hahi no au i na kanaka ilalo i kuu ukiuki, Ua haawi aku no au e ona lakou i ko'u inaina, A hoohaahaa au i ko lakou koko ilalo a ka honua.
I trampled down the nations in my anger; in my fury I made them drunk, and spilled their blood upon the ground.
7 O ke aloha o Iehova ka'u o hoikeike aku ai, O na mea nani hoi o Iehova, E like me na mea a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai ia makou, A me ka lokomaikai nui i ko ka hale o Iseraela, Ka mea ana i hana mai ai, ma kona lokomaikai, A ma ka nui loa hoi o kona aloha.
I want to tell everyone about the Lord's trustworthy love. I will praise the Lord for everything he's done for us—all the good things he has done for the descendants of Israel because of his kindness and his infinite trustworthy love.
8 No ka mea, olelo mai no oia, He oiaio, o ko'u poe kanaka lakou, he poe keiki wahahee ole; Nolaila oia i lilo ai i mea hoola no lakou.
He said, “Aren't they my people, children who wouldn't lie to me?” So he became their Savior.
9 I ko lakou popilikia a pau, aole ia he enemi, Aka, na ka anela o kona alo lakou i hoola; A no kona aloha, a no kona lokomaikai, hoolapanai oia ia lakou; A hapai ae la oia, a kaikai aku la ia lakou, i na la a pau o ka wa kahiko.
He suffered with them in all their suffering, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and kindness he redeemed them. He picked them up and carried them all throughout those years long ago.
10 Aka, kipi no lakou, a hoeha aku la i kona Uhane Hemolele; Nolaila oia i huli ai i enemi no lakou, A kaua mai no hoi ia lakou.
But they rebelled against him, and caused his Holy Spirit grief, so to them he became like an enemy and he fought against them.
11 Alaila, hoomanao iho la kona poe kanaka i na la kahiko ia Mose, Auhea ka mea nana lakou i lawe, mai loko mai o ke kai, Me ke kahu ohana hipa? Auhea hoi ka mea nana i waiho i kona Uhane Hemolele iwaenakonu ona?
Then they thought back to the days of old when Moses led his people out of Egypt. They shouted out, “Where is the one who took Israel through the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who placed his Holy Spirit among his people?
12 Ka mea i alakai ia lakou me ka lima akau o Mose, O ka lima no ia o kona nani, Ka mea i hookaawale i ka wai imua o ko lakou alo, I mea e hookaulana mau loa ia'i kona inoa?
Where is the one who lifted Moses' right hand, and who used his amazing power to divided the sea in front of them, giving him such a wonderful, enduring reputation?
13 E alakai ana ia lakou maloko o ka hohonu, E like me ka lio ma ka waoakua, I ole lakou e kulanalana?
Where is the one who led them through the depths of the sea?” They were like a horse running through the desert, they didn't stumble.
14 E like me ka bipi, i iho ilalo i kahawai, Pela no i hoomaha ai ka Uhane o Iehova ia ia; Pela hoi kau i alakai ai i kou poe kanaka, I mea e hana'i i inoa kaulana loa nou.
Like cattle descending into a valley, the Lord's Spirit gave them rest. This is how you led your people, earning a glorious reputation for yourself.
15 E nana mai oe, mai ka lani mai, E ike mai hoi, mai kahi noho ai o kou pono, a me kou hanohano; Auhea kou manao nui ana, a me kou ikaika? Ke kani ana o kou opu, a me kou aloha ia'u? Ua uumiia anei ia?
Lord, look down on us from heaven! Watch from your high home, in your holiness and glory! Where is your enthusiasm and power? You're not showing me your feelings of sympathy and kindness!
16 He oiaio no, o oe no ko makou Makua, Aole nae i ike mai o Aberahama ia makou, Aole hoomaopopo mai o Iseraela ia makou; O oe, o Iehova no ko makou Makua, a me ko makou Hoolapanai, Mai ka wa kahiko loa mai no kou inoa.
But you are still our Father, even though Abraham wouldn't know us and Israel wouldn't acknowledge us. You, Lord, are our Father; you have always been called our Redeemer from long ago.
17 E Iehova, no ke aha la oe i hooauwana ia makou mai kou mau aoao aku? A ua hoopaakiki hoi i ko makou naau, i makau ole aku ai ia oe? E hoi mai oe, no kau mau kauwa, A no na ohana o kou hooilina.
Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways, and make us stubborn so we don't respect you? Come back to us for the sake of your servants, the tribes that belong to you.
18 Ua noho iki wale no kou poe kanaka laa, Ua hahi ko makou poe enemi maluna o kou wahi hoano.
Your Temple belonged to us for a little while, but then our enemies invaded and destroyed it.
19 Mai ka wa kahiko mai makou; Aole noho alii oe maluna o lakou, Ka poe i kapa ole ia ma kou inoa.
We were yours from ancient times, but we've ended up like people you've never ruled, never identified as yours.
