< Isaia 7 >

1 I KE kau ia Ahaza, ke keiki a Iotama, ke keiki a Uzia, ke alii o ka Iuda, hele mai o Rezina, ke alii o Suria, a me Peka, ke keiki a Remalia, ke alii o ka Iseraela, e ku e ia Ierusalema, kaua mai, aole nae i hiki ia lakou ke lanakila maluna o ia wahi.
And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Joathan, the son of Ozias, king of Juda, that Basin king of Syria, and Phacee the son of Romelia king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem, to fight against it: but they could not prevail over it.
2 A haiia mai la i ko ka hale o Davida, i ka i ana mai, Ke hoomoana nei ko Suria maloko o ko Eperaima. Alaila, haalulu ka naau o ke alii, a me ka naau o kona poo kanaka, o like me ka haalulu ana o na laau o ka ululaau imua o ka makani.
And they told the house of David, saying: Syria hath rested upon Ephraim, and his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the woods are moved with the wind.
3 I mai la o Iehova ia Isaia, O hele, ano, e halawai me Ahaza, o oe, a me Seariasuba, kau keiki, ma ka welau o ka auwai o ka waipuna luna, ma ke ala e hiki aku ai ke kula holoi lole;
And the Lord said to Isaias: Go forth to meet Achaz, thou and Jasub thy son that is left, to the conduit of the upper pool, a in the way of the fuller’s held.
4 A e i aku oe ia ia, E ao oe, e noho malie; Mai makau hoi, mai maule kou naau, No na welowelo alua o keia mau momoku ahi, O ka huhu o Rezina, a me ko Suria, a me ko keiki a Remalia.
And thou shalt say to him: See thou be quiet: fear not, and let not thy heart be afraid of the two tails of these fire brands, smoking with the wrath of the fury of Rasin king of Syria, and of the son of Romelia.
5 No ka imi hala o ko Suria ia oe, A me Eperaima, a me ke keiki a Remalia, i ka i ana ae,
Because Syria hath taken counsel against thee, unto the evil of Ephraim and the son of Romelia, saying:
6 E pii ku e kakou i ka Iuda, e hoopilikia aku hoi, A e mahele ia wahi no kakou, A e hoonoho i ke keiki a Tabeala, i alii maloko ona.
Let us go up to Juda, and rouse it up, and draw it away to us, and make the son of Tabeel king in the midst thereof.
7 Ke i mai nei ka Haku, o Iehova penei, Aole e ku keia, aole ia e hanaia.
Thus saith the Lord God: It shall not stand, and this shall not be.
8 O ke poo o Suria, o Damaseko ia, A o ke poo o Damaseko, o Rezina no; He kanaonokumamalima makahiki i koe, Alaila, kahuli o Eperaima, a lilo i aupuni ole.
But the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Basin: and within threescore and five years, Ephraim shall cease to be a people:
9 O Samaria no ke poo o Eperaima, A o ke poo hoi o Samaria, oia ke keiki a Remalia. I ole oukou e manaoio i keia, aole oukou e malu.
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria the son of Romelia. If you will not believe, you shall not continue.
10 Olelo hou mai o Iehova ia Ahaza, i mai la,
And the Lord spoke again to Achaz, saying:
11 E nonoi oe i hoailona nou, mai Iehova, mai kou Akua mai; E nonoi ma ka hohonu, a ma kahi kiekie paha. (Sheol h7585)
Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God either unto the depth of hell, or unto the height above. (Sheol h7585)
12 I aku la o Ahaza, Aole au e nonoi, Aole hoi au e aa aku ia Iehova.
And Achaz said: I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.
13 Alaila, i mai la ia, E hoolohe oukou, e ka ohana a Davida, He mea uuku anei ia oukou ke hoopaupauaho i kanaka? E hoopaupauaho pu anei oukou i ko'u Akua?
And he said: Hear ye therefore, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to be grievous to men, that you are grievous to my God also?
14 Nolaila, na ka Haku ponoi no e haawi mai ia oukou i hoailona; Aia hoi! e hapai ana no kekahi wahine puupaa, A e hanau mai hoi ia i keiki, A e kapa aku no oia i kona inoa, o IMANUELA.
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign. Behold a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel.
15 O ka waiu paa a me ka mele kana e ai ai, A ike oia i ka hoole i ka hewa, a e koho hoi i ka pono.
He shall eat butter and honey, that he may know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
16 No ka mea, mamua o ka ike ana o ke keiki e hoole i ka hewa, A e koho hoi i ka pono, E neoneo e no ka aina o ua mau alii la elua au e makau nei.
For before the child know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, the land which thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of the face of her two kings.
17 Na Iehova no e hoopuka mai maluna ou, A maluna hoi o kou poe kanaka, A maluna o ka hale o kou makuakane, I na la i hiki ole mai ai mamua, Mai ka wa mai o ko Eperaima haalele ana i ka Iuda; I ke alii no Asuria.
The Lord shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon the house of thy father, days that have not come since the time of the separation of Ephraim from Juda with the king of the Assyrians.
18 A hiki aku i kela la, Na Iehova no e pio aku i ka nalo, E noho ana ma na welau o na muliwai o Aigupita, A i ka nalo-hope-eha, ma ka aina o Asuria;
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall hiss for the fly, that is in the uttermost parts of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 A e hele mai hoi lakou, a e kau mai lakou a pau, Ma na kahawai olohelohe, a ma na lua o na pohaku, A ma ka nahele ooi a pau, A ma na kula holoholona a pau.
And they shall come, and shall all of them rest in the torrents of the valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all places set with shrubs, and in all hollow places.
20 Ia la la, na ka Haku no e kahi, me ka pahi-kahi i hoolimalimaia, ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, Me ke alii hoi o Asuria, I ke poo, a me ke oho o na kapuwai; A e kahiia no hoi ka umiumi.
In that day the Lord shall shave with a razor that is hired by them that are beyond the river, by the king of the Assyrians, the head and the hairs of the feet, and the whole beard.
21 A hiki aku i kela la, E hanai no ke kanaka i ka bipi ohi, a me na hipa elua;
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep.
22 A no ka nui loa mai o ka waiu, E ai no ia i ka waiupaa; E ai io no i ka waiupaa a me ka meli, O ka poe a pau i koe ma ka aina.
And for the abundance of milk he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that shall be left in the midst of the land.
23 A hiki aku i kela la, O kahi a pau i ulu ai na kumuwaina, he tausani, I kuaiia no na hapalua he tausani, E paapu ia wahi i ka nahele ooi, a me ka laau kalakala.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place where there were a thousand vines, at a thousand pieces of silver, shall become thorns and briers.
24 Me na pua a me na kakaka lakou e hele ai ilaila, No ka mea, e nahelehele ana no ka aina a pau, I ka laau kalakala a me ka nahele ooi.
With arrows and with bows they shall go in thither: for briars and thorns shall be in all the land.
25 Ma na mauna a pau i olaolaoia i ka oo, Aohe mea hele ilaila, No ka makau i ka laau kalakala, a me ka nahele ooi: He wahi ia e hoouna aku ai i ka bipi, He wahi hoi e hahi ai na hipa.
And as for all the hills that shall be raked with a rake, the fear of thorns and briers shall not come thither, but they shall be for the ox to feed on, and the lesser cattle to tread upon.
