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.
A prophecy: This message came from the Lord concerning Israel, a declaration of the Lord who spread out the heavens, who laid the foundations of the earth, and who placed the breath of life within human beings.
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.
Look! I am going to make Jerusalem like a cup containing alcoholic drink that will make all the surrounding nations stagger like drunks when they come to attack Judah and 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 I will make Jerusalem like a heavy rock to all peoples. Anyone who tries to lift the rock will injure themselves badly. All the nations will join together to attack Jerusalem.
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 I will make every horse panic-stricken and every rider go mad, declares the Lord, but I will watch over the people of Judah while I blind all the horses of their enemies.
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 families of Judah will say to themselves, the people of Jerusalem are strong in their God, the Lord Almighty.
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 families of Judah like burning coals in a wood, like a flaming torch in a field of straw. They will burn up to the right and to the left all the surrounding peoples, while the people of Jerusalem will live safely in their city.
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 give the victory to the soldiers of Judah first so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall 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 place a shield around the people of Jerusalem so that even the clumsiest of them will be as skilled a warrior as David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord who leads 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.
On that day I will start destroying all those nations that attack 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.
I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They will look at me whom they pierced, and they will wail in grief over him, mourning as for an only child, weeping bitterly as for a firstborn.
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 mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning in Hadad-Rimmon in the valley 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, every family alone: the family house of David alone and their women by themselves, the families of Nathan,
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.
Levi, and Shimei—
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 surviving families and their women, each group mourning alone by themselves.
