Hoikeana 19
1 A MAHOPE iho o keiamau mea, lohe aku la au i ka leo nui o ke anaina nui loa ma ka lani, e olelo ana, Haleluia; ke ola a me ka hanohano a me ka nani a me ka mana, i ka Haku ko kakou Akua.
After these things I heard [what sounded] like a huge crowd in heaven. They were shouting things like, “(Hallelujah!/Praise our God!)” “He has saved us!” “He is glorious and mighty!”
2 No ka mea, he oiaio a he pono kana hoopai ana; no ka mea, ua hoahewa oia i ka wahine hookamakama nui, nana i hoohaumia i ka honua, i kona hookamakama ana, a ua hoopai hoi i ke koko o kana poe kauwa ma kona lima.
“Praise him because he judges truly and justly!” “He has punished the very evil cities that are like a prostitute, because their people persuaded the other people of earth [MTY] to act immorally and idolatrously like they do.” “Praise him because he has punished them for murdering his servants [MTY]!”
3 Olelo hou iho la lakou, Haleluia. A pii mau aku la kona uahi iluna ia ao aku, ia ao aku. (aiōn g165)
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn g165)
4 Moe iho la na lunakahiko, he iwakaluakumamaha, a me na mea ola eha, a hoomana aku la i ke Akua, i ka mea e noho ana maluna o ka nohoalii, i ae la, Amene; Haleluia.
The 24 elders and the four living [creatures] (prostrated themselves/knelt down) and worshipped God, who sits on the throne. Then they said, “[It] is true! (Hallelujah!/Praise God!)”
5 A puka mai la ka leo, mai ka nohoalii mai, i mai la, E hoonani oukou i ko kakou Akua, e na kauwa ana a pau, a me ka poe e makau ia ia, o ka poe liilii, a me ka poe nui.
Someone spoke from the throne and said, “All you who are our God’s servants, praise him! All you who reverence him, [whether you are socially] significant or insignificant, praise him! [Everyone]!”
6 A lohe aku la au i ka leo o kekahi poe nui loa, a ua like hoi me ka halulu ana o na wai he nui, a me ka halulu ana o na hekili ikaika loa, i ae la, Haleluia; no ka mea, ke hoomalu nei ka Haku ko kakou Akua mana loa i ke aupuni.
I heard something like the noise of a huge crowd [of people], like the sound of a huge waterfall (OR, a great/wide river of rushing water), and like the sound of loud thunder. They were shouting: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) Because the Lord God, the Almighty One, reigns!
7 E olioli kakou, a e hauoli hoi, a e hoonani aku ia ia; no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka mare ana o ke Keikihipa, a ua hoomakaukau kana wahine ia ia iho.
We should rejoice, we should be extremely glad, and we should honor him, because it is now time for Jesus, the one who is like a lamb, to be united permanently with his people, which will be like a man [MET] marrying his bride, and because those who belong to him have prepared themselves to be united with him.
8 A ua haawiia mai nona e aahu i ka lole nani, keokeo aiai; no ka mea, o ka lole nani, oia ka pono o ka poe haipule.
God has permitted them to be completely pure, like a bride who [MET] dresses in fine linen that is bright and clean. Fine [bright and clean] linen represents the righteous acts of God’s people.
9 I mai la kela ia'u, E palapala oe penei, Pomaikai ka poe i heaia i ka ahaaina mare a ke Keikihipa. I mai la kela ia'u, oia no na olelo oiaio a ke Akua.
Then the angel said to me, “Write [this: God will abundantly] bless the people who are {whom [he] has} invited to the feast [that celebrates Jesus, the one who is like a] lamb, [permanently uniting with his people, like someone] [MET] [marrying a wife].” He also said [to me]: “These words that God [declares] are true!”
10 A moe iho la au ilalo i kona wawae e hoomana ia ia. I mai kela ia'u, Uoki kau: owau no kou hoakauwa, kekahi o kou poe heahanau e hoike ana ia Iesu; e hoomana i ke Akua: no ka mea, o ka Uhane ia ia ka wanana, oia ka i hoike ia Iesu.
I [immediately] (prostrated myself/knelt down) at his feet in order to worship him. But he said to me, “Do not [worship me]! I am [just] your [(sg)] fellow servant and the fellow servant of your [(sg)] fellow believers who tell people about Jesus. God is the one whom you should worship, because it is the Spirit of God who gives people the power to tell others about Jesus (OR, [those who tell others about] Jesus are [truly] declaring [the words that the Spirit of God has given them])!”
11 Ike aku la au i ka lani e hamama ana, a aia hoi, he lio keokeo; a o ka mea e noho ana maluna iho ona, ua kapaia, o Hoopono, a o Oiaio, a ma ka pono oia e hoopai aku ai, a e kaua aku ai hoi.
[In the vision] I saw heaven opened {open}, and I was surprised to see a white horse. [Jesus], the one who was riding on the horse, is called ‘Trustworthy and Genuine/True’. He judges [all people according to] what is right, and fights righteously [against his enemies].
12 A ua like kona mau maka me ka lapalapa o ke ahi, a ua nui loa na leialii maluna o kona poo; a ua palapalaia kona inoa, aole hoi he mea ike, oia wale iho no.
His eyes [shone like] [MET] a flame of fire. There were many royal crowns on his head. A name had been written [on him]. Only he knows [the meaning of that name].
13 Ua aahuia hoi oia i ka aahu i hooluuia i ke koko; a ua kapaia kona inoa, o Ka Logou a ke Akua.
The robe he was wearing was drenched with blood. His name is [also] “(The one who expresses what God is like/The Word of God).”
14 Hahai mai la ia ia ka poe kaua o ka lani ma na lio keokeo, a ua aahuia i ka lole nani keokeo aiai.
The armies of heaven were following him. [They were also] riding on white horses. They were wearing clothes [made of] clean white linen.
15 A puka mai la, mailoko mai o kona waha, he pahikaua oi, i mea e hahau ai i ko na aina; a e hoomalu oia ia lakou me ke kookoo hao. A nana no e hahi i ka lua waina o ka ukiuki o ka inaina o ke Akua mana loa.
[The words] that Jesus speaks [are like] [MTY] a sharp sword with which he will strike [the rebellious people of] the nations. He himself will rule them [powerfully, as though he had] [MET] an iron rod. He will crush [his enemies just like] [MET] [a person crushes grapes in a] winepress. [He will do this for] God Almighty, who is extremely angry [with them because of their sins].
16 A ma kona aahu a ma kona uha ua palapalaia ka inoa, KE ALII O NA'LII, A ME KA HAKU O NA HAKU.
On his cloak close to his thigh a name had been written {[he] had written a name}, which is “King who [rules over all other] kings and Lord who [rules over all other] lords.”
17 A ike aku la au i kekahi anela e ku ana ma ka la, a hea mai la ia me ka leo nui, i mai la i na manu a pau e lele ana ma ka lewa, E hele mai, e akoakoa oukou i ka ahaaina a ke Akua nui;
I saw an angel who was standing in [the light of] [MTY] the sun. He called loudly to all the [flesh-eating] birds flying high in the sky, “Come and gather for the wonderful feast that God [is providing for you]!
18 I ai oukou i ka io o na'lii, a me ka io o na lunatausani, a me ka io o ka poe ikaika, a me ka io o na lio, a me ko ka poe i noho iluna iho o lakou, a me ka io o na mea a pau, o na haku, a me ko na kauwa, a me ko ka poe liilii, a me ko ka poe nui.
[Come] and eat the flesh of all [God’s enemies who are dead—] the flesh of kings, army commanders, [people who fought] powerfully, horses and the [soldiers] who rode them, [and the flesh of all other kinds of people], whether [they were] free or slaves, [socially] insignificant or significant. [All kinds]!”
19 A ike aku la au i ka holoholona, a me na'lii o ka honua, a me ko lakou poe kaua i akoakoa, e kaua aku i ka mea e noho ana maluna o ka lio a me kona puali kaua.
Then I saw the beast and the kings of earth with their armies gathered together to fight against the Rider on the horse, and against his army.
20 A paa iho la ka holoholona, a me ke kaula wahahee pu me ia, ka mea hana i na mea kupanaha imua ona, a pela ia i hoowalewale ai i ka poe i loaa ka hoailona o ka holoholona, a me ka poe i hoomana aku i kona kii. A ua kiola ola ia aku laua a elua iloko o ka loko ahi e aa ana i ka luaipele. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
21 A pepehiia iho la ke koena i ka pahikaua o ka mea e noho ana i ka lio, i ka mea i puka aku mailoko aku o kona waha. A maona iho la na manu a pau i ko lakou io.
The rider on the horse killed the rest [of their armies] just by [speaking words], [which were like] [MTY] a sword that extended from his mouth. All those birds gorged themselves on the flesh of [the people whom he had killed].
