Ioela 3
1 NO ka mea, aia hoi, i kela mau la, a i kela manawa, I ka wa e hoi hou mai ai au i ka pio ana o ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema,
For behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall turn again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 E hoakoakoa hoi au i na lahuikanaka a pau, A e lawe mai la lakou ilalo i ke awawa o Iehosapata, A e hookolokolo au me lakou no kuu poe kanaka, A no kuu hooilina, no ka Iseraela, Ka poe a lakou i hoopuehu aku ai iwaena o na lahuikanaka, A i puunaue hoi i kuu aina.
I will also gather all the nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and I will enter into judgment with them there on account of my people and mine inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations: and they have parted my land;
3 A ua hailona lakou no kuu poe kanaka; Ua haawi lakou i keikikane no ka wahine moe kolohe, A kuai aku i kaikamahine no ka waina, i inu ai lakou.
and they have cast lots for my people, and have given a boy for a harlot, and sold a girl for wine, and have drunk [it].
4 A heaha hoi ka oukou ia'u, e Turo, a me Zidona? A me na palena a pau o Pilisetia? E hoihoi mai anei oukou i ka uku ia'u? Ina e hoihoi mai oukou i ka uku ia'u, Owau no kekahi e hoihoi koke loa aku i ko oukou uku maluna o ko oukou poo.
Yea also, what have ye to do with me, O Tyre and Zidon, and all the districts of Philistia? Will ye render me a recompence? But if ye recompense me, swiftly [and] speedily will I bring your recompence upon your own head;
5 No ka mea, ua lawe aku oukou i kuu kala, a me kuu gula, A ua hali aku oukou i kuu mau mea makamae iloko o ko oukou mau luakini.
because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my beautiful pleasant things,
6 A o na keiki a Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema ka oukou i kuai aku i ka poe Helene, I hali loihi aku ia lakou mai ko lakou palena aku.
and the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the children of the Greeks, that ye might remove them far from their border.
7 Aia hoi, e hoala mai au ia lakou mai kahi a oukou i kuai aku ai ia lakou, A e hoihoi aku au i ko oukou uku maluna o ko oukou poo;
Behold, I will raise them up out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will bring your recompence upon your own head.
8 A e kuai aku au i ka oukou poe kaikamahine, A i ka oukou poe keikikane i ka lima o na keiki a Iuda, A o lakou hoi e kuai aku ia lakou la i na Seba, I ka lahuikanaka mamao aku; No ka mea, oia ka Iehova i olelo mai.
And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a nation far off: for Jehovah hath spoken.
9 E hai aku oukou i keia iwaena o na lahuikanaka; E hoomakaukau oukou no ke kaua, E hoala mai i ka poe ikaika, E hookokoke mai na kanaka kaua a pau; E pii mai lakou:
Proclaim this among the nations: prepare war, arouse the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.
10 E kui oukou i ko oukou mau oopalau i pahikaua, A i ka oukou mau pahi paipai i mau ihe; A e olelo iho ka mea nawaliwali, Ua ikaika wau.
Beat your ploughshares into swords, and your pruning-knives into spears; let the weak say, I am strong.
11 E akoakoa oukou, e hele mai, e na lahuikanaka a pau, E hoakoakoaia oukou a puni; Ilaila hoi oe, e Iehova, e huiho ilalo i kou poe ikaika.
Haste ye and come, all ye nations round about, and gather yourselves together. Thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Jehovah.
12 E hoalaia na lahuikanaka, A e pii mai i ke awawa o Iehosapata; No ka mea, malaila wau e noho iho ai, e hooponopono i na lahuikanaka a pau e puni ana.
Let the nations rouse themselves, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the nations round about.
13 E hookomo oukou i ka pahikakiwi, No ka mea, ua oo ka ai; E hele mai oukou, e iho ilalo; No ka mea, ua piha ke kaomi waina, ua piha a hu iwaho na waihona waina; No ka mea, ua nui ko lakou hewa.
Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down, for the press is full, the vats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
14 Nui ka poe, he nui ka poe ma ke awawa o ka hoopai ana: No ka mea, ua kokoke ka la o Iehova ma ke awawa o ka hoopai ana:
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Jehovah is at hand in the valley of decision.
15 E pouli ka la a me ka mahina, A e hoonalowale na hoku i ko lakou malamalama.
The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
16 E uwo mai o Iehova mai Ziona mai, A e hoopuka mai i kona leo mai Ierusalema mai; A e haalulu ka lani a me ka honua: A o Iehova ka puuhonua no kona poe kanaka, A me kahi paa no na mamo a Iseraela.
And Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: and Jehovah will be a shelter for his people, and the refuge of the children of Israel.
17 Pela e ike ai oukou, owau no o Iehova ko oukou Akua, E noho ana ma Ziona, kuu mauna hoano: A e lilo o Ierusalema i hemolele, Aole e hele hou na malihini mawaena ona.
And ye shall know that I, Jehovah, [am] your God, dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain; and Jerusalem shall be holy, and no strangers shall pass through her any more.
18 A i kela la e hookulu na mauna i ka waina hou, A e hookahe mai na puu i ka waiu, A e kahe ka wai ma na kahawai a pau o Iuda, A e puapuai mai ka waipuna mai ka hale o Iehova mai, A e kahe aku ka wai ma ke awawa o Sitima.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the water-courses of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of Jehovah, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
19 A e lilo o Aigupita i neoneo, A o Edoma i waonahele neoneo, no ka hana ino ia o na mamo a Iuda, No ka mea, ua hookahe lakou i ke koko hala ole iloko o ko lakou aina.
Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, in that they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 Aka, e noho mau loa ana o ka Iuda, A o ko Ierusalema ia hanauna aku, ia hanauna aku.
But Judah shall abide for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 No ka mea, e huikala aku au i ko lakou koko, a'u i huikala ole aku ai: A e noho ana o Iehova ma Ziona.
And I will purge them from the blood from which I had not purged them: for Jehovah dwelleth in Zion.
