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 a declaration of Yahweh's word concerning Israel—a declaration of Yahweh, who stretched out the skies and laid the foundation of the earth, who fashions the spirit of mankind within man,
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.
“See, I am about to make Jerusalem into a cup causing all the peoples surrounding her to stagger about. It will also be like that for Judah during the siege against 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 a heavy stone for all the peoples. Anyone trying to lift that stone will hurt himself very much, and all the nations of the earth will gather against that city.
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—this is Yahweh's declaration—I will strike every horse with confusion and its rider with madness. Over the house of Judah I will open my eyes, but every horse of the peoples I will strike with blindness.
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 inhabitants of Jerusalem are our strength because of Yahweh of hosts, 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 leaders of Judah like firepots among wood and like a flaming torch among standing grain, for they will consume all the surrounding peoples on their right and on their left. Jerusalem will again live in her own place.”
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.
Yahweh will save the tents of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and the honor of those who live in Jerusalem may not be greater than the rest 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 Yahweh will be the defender of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on that day those who are weak among them will be like David, while the house of David will be like God, like the angel of Yahweh in front of 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 that I will begin 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.
But I will pour out a spirit of compassion and pleading on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so they will look on me, the one they have pierced. They will mourn for me, as one mourns for an only son; they will bitterly lament for him like those who lament the death of 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 laments in Jerusalem will be like the laments at 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 separate from other clans. The clan of the house of David will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men. The clan of the house of Nathan will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men.
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 will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men. The clan of the Shimeites will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men.
14 O na ohana a pau e koe, ma ke kaawale, kela ohana keia ohana, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.
Every clan of the remaining clans—each clan will be separate and the wives will be separate from the men.”
