< Isaia 66 >
1 PEIA ka Iehova e olelo mai nei, O ka lani no ko'u noho alii, a o ka honua hoi ko'u keehana wawae: Auhea ka hale a oukou e hana mai ai no'u? Auhea hoi ko'u wahi e hoomaha'i?
Thus saith the Lord: Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool: what is this house that you will build to me? and what is this place of my rest?
2 No ka mea, na ko'u lima no i hana ia mau mea a pau, A eia no hoi lakou a pau e noho la, wahi a Iehova; Aka, e nana aku au i keia, i ka mea i haahaa, a mihi hoi ma ka naau, A haalulu i ka'u olelo.
My hand made all these things, and all these things were made, saith the Lord. But to whom shall I have respect, but to him that is poor and little, and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my words?
3 O ka mea kalua i ka bipi, he pepehi kanaka ia, O ka mea mohai i ka hipa, hai no oia i ka a-i o ka ilio: O ka mohai makana, he koko puaa no ia; O ka mea kuni i ka mea ala, hoomaikai no oia i ke akuakii; Oia, ua koho lakou i ko lakou aoao iho, A olioli no ko lakou naau i ko lakou mea hoopailua.
He that sacrificeth an ox, is as if he slew a man: he that killeth a sheep in sacrifice, as if he should brain a dog: he that offereth an oblation, as if he should offer swine’s blood; he that remembereth incense, as if he should bless an idol. All these things have they chosen in their ways, and their soul is delighted in their abominations.
4 E koho no hoi au i ko lakou poino, A na'u hoi e hooili aku maluna o lakou, i ko lakou mea e weliweli ai; No ka mea, ia'u i hea aku ai, aohe mea i o mai, Ia'u i olelo aku ai, aole lakou i hoolohe: Aka, hana hewa no lakou imua o ko'u mau maka, A koho no hoi i ka mea a'u i makemake ole ai.
Wherefore I also will choose their mockeries, and will bring upon them the things they feared: because I called, and there was none that would answer; I have spoken, and they heard not; and they have done evil in my eyes, and have chosen the things that displease me.
5 E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, E ka poe haalulu i kana olelo; O ko oukou poe koahanau, ka poe i ukiuki mai ia oukou, Ka poe i kipaku aku ia oukou iwaho, no ko'u inoa, I ae la lakou, E hoonaniia o Iehova: A e ikeia no ia, i mea e hauoli ai oukou, Aka, e hilahila auanei lakou.
Hear the word of the Lord, you that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hate you, and cast you out for my name’s sake, have said: Let the Lord be glorified, and we shall see in your joy: but they shall be confounded.
6 He leo no ka walaau, mai ke kulanakauhale mai. He leo mai ka luakini mai, ka leo o Iehova e hoopai ana i kona poe enemi.
A voice of the people from the city, a voice from the temple, the voice of the Lord that rendereth recompense to his enemies.
7 Mamua o kona kuakoko ana, hanau mai la oia, Mamua o ka hiki ana mai o kona nahu, Hanau mai la oia, he keikikane.
Before she was in labour, she brought forth; before her time came to be delivered, she brought forth a man child.
8 Owai ka mea i lohe i ka mea o like me ia? Owai ka mea i ike i na mea o like me ia? E hoohanauia mai anei ka honua i ka la hookahi? E hanau anei ka lahuikanaka ma ka minute? No ka mea, ia Ziona i kuakoko mua ai, hanau mai la no kana mau keiki.
Who hath ever heard such a thing? and who hath seen the like to this? shall the earth bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be brought forth at once, because Sion hath been in labour, and hath brought forth her children?
9 E hookokoke anei au i ka hanau, aole hoi e hoohanau mai? wahi a Iehova: E hoohanau anei au, alaila papani aku? wahi a ke Akua ou.
Shall not I that make others to bring forth children, myself bring forth, saith the Lord? shall I, that give generation to others, be barren, saith the Lord thy God?
10 E olioli pu no oukou me Ierusalema, A e hauoli pu no hoi me ia, e ka poe a pau i aloha aku ia ia: E olioli nui loa ia ia, e ka poe a pau i kanikau ia ia.
Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her.
11 I omo oukou, a maona hoi ma ka puu waiu o kona hoomaha ana, I uwi aku oukou, a olioli i ka nui o kona nani.
That you may suck, and be filled with the breasts of her consolations: that you may milk out, and flow with delights, from the abundance of her glory.
12 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e hohola aku no au i ka malu maluna ona, me he muliwai la, A i ka nani o ko na aina, e like me ka wai kahe e halana ana; Alaila, e omo no oukou, e kaikaiia hoi ma ka aoao, A e hiiia hoi ma na kuli.
For thus saith the Lord: Behold I will bring upon her as it were a river of peace, and as an overflowing torrent the glory of the Gentiles, which you shall suck; you shall be carried at the breasts, and upon the knees they shall caress you.
13 E like me ka mea a kona makuwahine i hoomaha ai, Pela no wau e hoomaha aku ai ia oukou, A e hoomahaia oukou ma o Ierusalema la.
As one whom the mother caresseth, so will I comfort you, and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 A ike oukou ia, e olioli no ko oukou naau, A e ulu no ko oukou mau iwi, e like me ka laalaau: A e ikeia auanei ka lima o Iehova, maluna o kana poe kauwa, A me kona ukiuki maluna o kona poe enemi.
You shall see and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb, and the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants, and he shall be angry with his enemies.
15 No ka mea, aia hoi, e hele mai no o Iehova me ke ahi, A me kona mau kaakaua, e like me ka puahiohio, E hoihoi mai i kona huhu me ka ukiuki, A me kona papa ana, me na lapalapa o ke ahi.
For behold the Lord will come with fire, and his chariots are like a whirlwind, to render his wrath in indignation, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 No ka mea, me ke ahi no, a me kana pahikaua, E hakaka'i o Iehova me na mea io a pau: A e nui loa auanei ka poe a Iehova e pepehi ai.
For the Lord shall judge by fire, and by his sword unto all flesh, and the slain of the Lord shall be many.
17 O ka poe hoano ia lakou iho, a hoomaemae ia lakou iho ma na mahinaai, Mahope o kekahi mawaena, e ai ana i ka io o ka puaa, a me ka mea e hoopailua ai a me ka iole; E make pu no lakou, wahi a Iehova.
They that were sanctified, and thought themselves clean in the gardens behind the gate within, they that did eat swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse: they shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
18 A e ike auanei au i ka lakou hana, a me ko lakou manao; No ka mea, e hoakoakoaia ko na aina a pau, a me ka poe olelo e, A e hele mai no lakou, a e ike i ko'u nani.
But I know their works, and their thoughts: I come that I may gather them together with all nations and tongues: and they shall come and shall see my glory.
19 A e kau no wau i ka ouli no lakou, A o ka poe o lakou e pakele, e hoouna aku au ia lakou i na aina e, I Taresisa, i Pula, a i Luda, na mea i lena i ke kakaka; I Tubala hoi, a i Iavana, a i na aina loihi e aku, Ka poe i lohe ole i kuu kaulana, aole hoi i ike i ko'u nani; A na lakou no e hai i ko'u nani iwaena o ko na aina e.
And I will set a sign among them, and I will send of them that shall be saved, to the Gentiles into the sea, into Africa, and Lydia them that draw the bow: into Italy, and Greece, to the islands afar off, to them that have not heard of me, and have not seen my glory. And they shall declare my glory to the Gentiles:
20 A e lawe mai no lakou i ko oukou poe hoahanau a pau, Mai loko mai o na aina a pau, i mohai no Iehova, Maluna o na lio, a maloko o na kaakaua, a ma na manele, A ma na hoki, a me na kamelo mama, a i ko'u mauna hoano i Ierusalema, wahi a Iehova; E like me na mamo a Iseraela i lawe mai ai i ka mohai maloko o ka ipu maemae, A i ka hale o Iehova.
And they shall bring all your brethren out of all nations for a gift to the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and on mules, and in coaches, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as if the children of Israel should bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
21 A e lawe no wau, noloko o lakou, i mau kahuna, a i poe lawelawe, e like me na Levi, wahi a Iehova.
And I will take of them to be priests, and Levites, saith the Lord.
22 No ka mea, e like me na lani hou, a me ka houna hou a'u e hana'i, e mau lakou imua o'u, wahi a Iehova, Pela no e mau ai ka oukou poe keiki, a me ko oukou inoa.
For as the new heavens, and the new earth, which I will make to stand before me, saith the Lord: so shall your seed stand, and your name.
23 A mai kekahi mahina hou, a i kekahi mahina hou, A mai kekahi sabati, a i kekahi sabati, E hele mai no na mea io a pau e hoomana imua o'u, wahi a Iehova.
And there shall be month after month, and sabbath after sabbath: and all flesh shall come to adore before my face, saith the Lord.
24 A e puka aku no lakou iwaho, a e nana iho i na kupapau o na kanaka i kipi mai ia'u: No ka mea, aole e make ko lakou ilo, Aole e pio ko lakou ahi, A e lilo no lakou i mea hoopailua no na mea io a pau.
And they shall go out, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched: and they shall be a loathsome sight to all flesh.
