Zekaria 12
1 K A WANANA o ka olelo a Iehova no ka Iseraela, Wahi a Iehova, ka mea nana e hohola ae i na lani, A me ka hookumu iho i ka honua, A i hana hoi i ka uhane o ke kanaka maloko ona.
This is the burden of the word of the LORD concerning Israel. Thus declares the LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, who forms the spirit of man within him:
2 Aia hoi, e hoolilo no au ia Ierusalema i kiaha hoinu a ona i na kanaka a pau e puni ana; Pela no i ka Iuda, i ka hoopilikia ana ia Ierusalema.
“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples. Judah will be besieged, as well as Jerusalem.
3 Ia la hoi, e hoolilo au ia Ierusalema i pohaku kaumaha no na kanaka a pau: A o ka poe a pau i kaikai ia mea, e haehaeia lakou; A e hoakoakoaia auanei na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua e ku e ia wahi.
On that day, when all the nations of the earth gather against her, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who would heave it away will be severely injured.
4 Ia la hoi, wahi a Iehova, E hahau auanei au i na lio a pau i ka makau, A me ka mea e noho ana maluna i ka hehena: A e hookaakaa au i kuu mau maka e nana i ka ohana a Iuda; Aka, e hoomakapo auanei au i na lio a pau o kanaka.
On that day, declares the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and every rider with madness. I will keep a watchful eye on the house of Judah, but I will strike with blindness all the horses of the nations.
5 A e olelo na luna o ka Iuda iloko o ko lakou naau, O na kanaka o Ierusalema kuu ikaika, Iloko o Iehova Sabaota o ko lakou Akua.
Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts: ‘The people of Jerusalem are my strength, for the LORD of Hosts is their God.’
6 Ia la la, e hoolilo au i na luna o ka Iuda e like me ke kapuahi iwaena o ka wahie, A e like hoi me ka lamaahi iloko o ka pua pili; A e hoopau auanei lakou i na kanaka a pau e puni ana ma ka akau a ma ka hema: A e hoonoho hou ia o Ierusalema ma kona wahi, ma Ierusalema.
On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among the sheaves; they will consume all the peoples around them on the right and on the left, while the people of Jerusalem remain secure there.
7 E hoola hoi o Iehova i na halelewa o Iuda mamua, O hookiekie auanei ka nani o ka ohana a Davida a me ka nani o na kanaka o Ierusalema maluna o ka Iuda.
The LORD will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the house of David and of the people of Jerusalem may not be greater than that of Judah.
8 Ia la hoi, e hoomalu iho o Iehova i na kanaka o Ierusalema: A ka mea nawaliwali iwaena o lakou ia la, e like ia me Davida; A e like hoi ka ohana a Davida me ka ke Akua, A me ka Anela o Iehova imua o lakou.
On that day the LORD will defend the people of Jerusalem, so that the weakest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the LORD going before them.
9 Eia hoi kekahi ia la, E imi auanei au e hoopau ai i na lahuikanaka a pau, E hele ku e mai ana ia Ierusalema.
So on that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 A e ninini iho au maluna o ka ohana a Davida, A maluna o na kanaka o Ierusalema, I ka uhane o ke aloha a me ka pule; A e nana mai lakou ia'u i ka mea a lakou i hou mai ai, A e kanikau lakou nona, e like me ke kanikau ana i ke keiki ponoi, A e ehaeha loa lakou nona, e like me ka ehaeha ana o kekahi i kana keiki hanaukahi.
Then I will pour out on the house of David and on the people of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and prayer, and they will look on Me, the One they have pierced. They will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
11 Ia la hoi, e nui auanei ke kanikau ana ma Ierusalema, E like me ke kanikau ana o Hadaderimona ma ka papu o Megido.
On that day the wailing in Jerusalem will be as great as the wailing of Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 E kanikau hoi ko ka aina, O kela ohana o keia ohana ma ke kaawale, O ka ohana o ka hale o Davida ma ke kaawale, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale; O ka ohana no ka hale o Natana ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale;
The land will mourn, each clan on its own: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,
13 O ka ohana no ka hale o Levi ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale, O ka ohana no ka hale o Simei ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.
the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives,
14 O na ohana a pau e koe, ma ke kaawale, kela ohana keia ohana, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.
and all the remaining clans and their wives.
