< Isaia 65 >

1 U A haliu au i ka ka poe nonoi ole mai ia'u, Ua loaa no wau i ka poe imi ole ia'u: I ko ka aina i hea ole ia ma ko'u inoa, ua olelo no au, E nana mai ia'u, e nana mai ia'u.
I have let myself be consulted by them who had not asked, I have suffered myself to be found by them who had not sought me, —I have said, Here I am! Here I am! Unto a nation that had not been called by my name,
2 A po ka la, ua hohola aku au i ko'u mau lima i ka poe kanaka kipi, I ka poe i hele ma ka aoao pono ole, mamuli o ko lakou manao iho.
I have spread out my hands all the day, Unto a rebellious people, —Who walk In the way that is not good, After their own devices.
3 He poe kanaka hoonaukiuki mau loa mai ia'u ma ko'u alo, He poe mohai aku ma na mahinaai, A kuni hoi i ka mea ala, maluna o na pohaku lepo:
The people who are provoking me to anger to my face continually, —Sacrificing in gardens, and Burning incense upon bricks;
4 He poe noho iwaena o na ilina, A moe hoi ma na wahi i hoonaloia, He poe ai i ka io puaa, a me ka supa o na mea haumia, maloko o ko lakou kiaha:
Who tarry among graves, And in the secret places, do lodge, Who eat the flesh of swine, And the broth of refuse things is in their vessels, —
5 He poe olelo, E hookaawale oe ia oe ihe, mai hoopili mai ia'u, No ka mea, ua oi aku ko'u pono i kou. He uwahi no keia poe ma kuu ihu, He ahi no o a ana, a po ka la.
Who say—Draw near by thyself, Do not approach with me, For I am holier than thou! These, are A smoke in my nostrils, A fire, burning all the day.
6 Aia hoi, ua palapalaia imua o ko'u alo; Aole au e noho ekema ole, e uku aku no wau, E uku aku no wau, maloko o ko lakou poli,
Lo! it is written before me, —I will not keep silence, But I have recompensed, and will recompense into their bosom:
7 I ko oukou mau hewa, a me na hewa o ko oukou poe makua pu, wahi a Iehova, I ka poe i kuni i ka mea ala, maluna o na mauna, A olelo hoino mai ia'u, maluna o na puu; Nolaila, e ana aku au i ka lakou hana kahiko, maloko o ko lakou poli.
Your own iniquities, And the, iniquities of your fathers together, Saith Yahweh, Who have burned incense upon the mountains, And upon the hills, have reproached me, —Therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E like me ka waina hou i loaa maloko o ka huhuiwaina, A olelo kekahi, Mai kiola ia, no ka mea, maloko ona ka mea e pomaikai ai, Pela no wau e hana'i no ka'u poe kauwa, I ole ai au e luku ia lakou a pau.
Thus, saith Yahweh—As, new wine, is found, in the cluster, And one saith, Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it, So, will I do for the sake of my servants, That I may not destroy the whole [nation];
9 A e hoopuka no wau i ka hua, mailoko mai o Iakoba, A mai loko mai hoi o Iuda, i hooilina no ko'u mau kuahiwi, Na ko'u poe i waeia e komo ia, A na ka'u poe kauwa e noho malaila.
Therefore will I bring forth Out of Jacob, a seed, and Out of Judah, an inheritor of my mountains, That my chosen ones may inherit it, And, my servants, dwell there;
10 A e lilo no o Sarona i pa no na hipa, A o ke kahawai o Akora i wahi moe no na bipi, No ko'u poe kanaka i imi mai ai ia'u.
Then shall, Sharon, become, a fold for flocks, And the vale of Achor for the lying down of herds, —For my people who have sought me.
11 Aka, o oukou ka poe haalele ia Iehova, A hoopoina hoi i ko'u mauna hoano, Ka poe hoomakaukau i ka papaaina no Gada, A hoomakaukau hoi i ka waina ala no Meni.
But, ye are they—Who forsake Yahweh Who forget my holy mountain—Who prepare, for Fortune, a table and Who fill for Destiny, mixed wine;
12 O oukou ka'u e helu aku ai no ka pahikaua, A e kulou oukou a pau i ka make; No ka mea, ia'u i hea aku ai, aole oukou i o mai, Ia'u i olelo ai, aole oukou i hoolohe; Aka, hana hewa no oukou imua o ko'u mau maka, A koho oukou i ka mea a'u i makemake ole ai.
Therefore will I destine you to the sword, And, ye all, to the slaughter, shall bow down. Because I called and ye answered not, I spake, and ye hearkened not, —But did that which was wicked in mine eyes, And of that wherein I delighted not, ye made choice,
13 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ka Haku, Aia hoi, e ai no ka'u poe kauwa, aka, e pololi ana oukou; Aia hoi, e inu no ka'u poe kauwa, aka, e makewai ana oukou; Aia hoi, e olioli no ka'u poe kauwa, aka, e hilahila ana oukou:
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, —Lo! my servants, shall eat but, ye, shall be famished, Lo! my servants, shall drink but, ye shall be thirsty, —Lo! my servants, shall rejoice but ye, shall turn pale;
14 Aia hoi, e oli no ka'u poe kauwa no ka hauoli o ka naau, Aka, e uwe ana oukou no ke kaumaha o ka naau, A e aoa ana no hoi no ka nahaehae ana o ka uhane.
Lo! my servants, shall shout in triumph for mirth of heart But, ye, shall make outcry, for pain of heart, And for a breaking of spirit, shall ye howl.
15 A e hooili aku oukou no ko'u poe i waeia i ko oukou inoa i mea e poino ai; No ka mea, e pepehi mai no o Iehova, ka Haku, ia oe, A e kapa iho i kana poe kauwa ma ka inoa e.
So shall ye leave your name for an oath, to my chosen ones, —So then My Lord Yahweh, will slay thee, —And his servants, will he, call by another name:
16 O ka mea hoopomaikai ia ia iho ma ka honua, E hoopomaikai oia ia ia ma ke Akua oiaio; A o ka mea hoohiki ma ka honua, E hoohiki oia ma ke Akua oiaio; No ka mea, ua poinaia na kaumaha kahiko, A no ka mea hoi, ua hunaia lakou mai ko'u mau maka aku.
So that he who blesseth himself in the earth, Will bless himself in the God of faithfulness, And he who sweareth in the earth Will swear by the God of faithfulness—Because the former troubles have been forgotten, and Because they are hid from mine eyes.
17 No ka mea, aia hoi, e hana ana au i lani hou, a i honua hou, Aole hoi e hoomanao hou ia ua mau mea kahiko la, Aole no e komo iloko o ka manao.
For, behold me! Creating new heavens, and a new earth, —And the former shall not be mentioned, neither shall they come up on the heart,
18 E olioli hoi oukou, a e hauoli mau loa i kela mea a'u e hana'i; No ka mea, aia hoi, e hana ana au ia Ierusalema i mea e olioli ai, A i kona poe kanaka hoi, i mea e hauoli ai.
But joy ye and exult, perpetually, in what I am about to create, —For, behold me! Creating Jerusalem an exultation and Her People a joy;
19 A e olioli no wau ia Ierusalema, A e hauoli hoi i ko'u poe kanaka: Aole e lohe hou ia maloko ona, ka leo o ka uwe ana, A me ka leo o ke kumakena.
Therefore will I Exult in Jerusalem, and Joy in my People, —And there shall be heard in her, no more The sound of weeping, or the sound of a cry:
20 Aole e loaa hou malaila ke keiki hoopiha ole i na la, Aohe hoi kanaka elemakule i hoopiha ole i kona mau la: No ka mea, e make no ke keiki, hookahi haneri makahiki, Aka, o ka mea i hana hewa, hookahi haneri ona mau makahiki, E poino ana ia.
There shall be thenceforward, no more, A suckling of a few days, or an elder Who filleth not up his days, —But, a youth a hundred years old, may die, Yea a sinner a hundred years old, shall be accursed,
21 E kukulu hale no lakou, a e noho iloko, A e kanu no lakou i na pawaina, A e ai no hoi i ka hua o lakou.
Then shall they build houses and dwell in them, —And plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them;
22 Aole lakou e kukulu, a na hai e noho, Aole lakou e kanu, a na hai e ai; No ka mea, e like me na la o ka laau, Pela no na la o ko'u poe kanaka, A e noho no ko'u poe i waeia ma ka hana a ko lakou lima.
They shall not build, and another, dwell, They shall not plant, and, another, eat, —For as the days of a tree, shall be the days of my people, And, the work of their own hands, shall my chosen ones, use to the full:
23 Aole e make hewa ka lakou hana ana, Aole hoi lakou e hanau no ka make; No ka mea, o lakou ka hua a ka poe pomaikai ia Iehova, A me ka lakou poe keiki pu me lakou.
They shall not labour in vain, Nor have children for terror, —For the seed of the blessed ones of Yahweh, shall they be, And their offspring, with them.
24 Eia hoi, mamua o ko lakou hea ana, e ae aku no wau; A ia lakou e olelo ana, e hoolohe no au.
And it shall come to pass—That before they call, I, will answer, And while yet they are speaking, I, will hear.
25 E ai pu no ka iliohae me ke keikihipa, A e ai no ka liona i ka mauu maloo e like me ka bipi; A o ka lepo auanei ka ai a ka nahesa. Aohe mea hana ino, aohe mea pepehi ma ko'u mauna hoano a pau, wahi a Iehova.
The wolf and the lamb, shall feed, in unity, And, the lion, as an ox, shall eat straw; But as for the serpent, dust, shall be his food: They shall not harm—Nor shall they destroy, In all my holy mountain, saith Yahweh.
