Zekaria 8
1 A HIKI hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova o na kaua, i mai la,
Againe the worde of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying,
2 Penei ka Iehova o na kaua e olelo mai nei, I lili no au ia Ziona me ka manao nui, A i lili hoi au nona me ka inaina nui.
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I was ielous for Zion with great ielousie, and I was ielous for her with great wrath.
3 Ke olelo mai nei Iehova penei, Ua hoi mai nei au i Ziona, a e noho auanei au iwaena o Ierusalema; A e kapaia o Ierusalema, he kulanakauhale no ka oiaio, A o ka mauna o Iehova o na kaua, he mauna hoano.
Thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Zion, and wil dwel in the mids of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem shalbe called a citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
4 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, Ma ia hope e noho na elemakule a me na luwahine ma na kuamoo o Ierusalema, A e lawe kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona kookoo ma kona lima no ka nui o na la;
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, There shall yet olde men and olde women dwell in the streetes of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
5 A e paapu na kuamoo o ua kulanakauhale nei i na keikikane, A me na kaikamahine e paani ana ma na alanui ona.
And the streetes of the citie shalbe full of boyes and girles, playing in the streetes thereof.
6 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Ina he paakiki keia imua o keia koena kanaka i kela manawa, He mea paakiki hoi anei ia imua o'u? Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Though it be vnpossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it therefore be vnpossible in my sight, sayth the Lord of hostes?
7 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, Aia hoi, e hoopakele auanei au i o'u poe kanaka, Mai ka aina hikina mai, a mai ka aina komohana mai:
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will deliuer my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
8 A e alakai mai au ia lakou, e noho lakou iwaena o Ierusalema: E lilo mai no lakou i kanaka no'u, A owau auanei ko lakou Akua ma ka oiaio a ma ka pono.
And I wil bring them, and they shall dwel in the mids of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I wil be their God in trueth, and in righteousnes.
9 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, E hooikaika i ka oukou mau lima, E ka poe lohe i keia mau la ia mau olelo, Ma ka waha o na kaula, O ka poe e noho ana i ka wa i hookumuia'i ka hale o Iehova o na kaua, I kukuluia'i ka luakini.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Let your hands be strong, ye that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day, that the foundation of the House of the Lord of hostes was laide, that the Temple might be builded.
10 No ka mea, mamua o ia mau la, Aole i loaa i ke kanaka ka uku, Aole hoi he uku no ka holoholona; Aole hoi i maluhia ka mea i hele aku iwaho a i hoi mai iloko, no ka enemi; No ka mea, hookuee aku la au i na kanaka a pau i ko lakou mau hoalauna.
For before these dayes there was no hire for man nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
11 Aka, i neia manawa, aole au e hana aku i keia koena kanaka, E like me ka'u i na la mamua, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
But nowe, I wil not intreate the residue of this people as aforetime, saith the Lord of hostes.
12 No ka mea, e maluhia ka hua kanu, A e hua mai ke kumuwaina i kona hua, A e hooulu mai hoi ka honua i kana mea ulu, A e haawi mai hoi ka lani i kona hau, A e haawi auanei au i keia mau mea a pau no keia koena kanaka.
For the seede shall be prosperous: the vine shall giue her fruite, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dewe, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
13 No ka mea, me oukou i hoinoia iwaena o ko na aina e, E ka ohana a Iuda, a me ka ohana a Iseraela, Pela no au e hoola ai ia oukou, a e hoopomaikai ia oukou; Mai makau oukou, e hooikaika hoi i ko oukou mau lima.
And it shall come to passe, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so wil I deliuer you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
14 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, Me ka'u i manao ai e hoopai aku i ko oukou hewa, I ka wa o ko oukou mau makua i hoonaukiuki mai ai ia'u, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, Aole hoi au i hoololi hou i ka manao;
For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayth the Lord of hostes, and repented not,
15 Pela hoi, manao iho au i neia mau la, E lokomaikai aku ia Ierusalema, A i ka ohana a Iuda; mai makau oukou.
So againe haue I determined in these daies to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
16 Eia na mea a oukou e hana'i; E olelo oiaio aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoalauna; A e hookolokolo ma ka oiaio, a ma ka mea e malu ai iloko o na ipuka o oukou.
These are ye things that ye shall doe. Speake ye euery man the trueth vnto his neighbour: execute iudgement truely and vprightly in your gates,
17 Mai manao ino aku kekahi o oukou i kona hoalauna maloko o ko oukou naau: Mai makemake hoi i ka hoike wahahee ana: No ka mea, o keia mau mea o pau ka'u e inaina nei, wahi a Iehova.
And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false othe: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
18 Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova i o'u nei, i ana mai,
And the worde of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
19 Penei ka Iehova a na kaua e olelo nei, O ka hookeai ana o ka malama aha, me ka hookeai ana o ka alima. Me ka hookeai ana o ka ahiku, a me ka hookeai ana o ka umi, E lilo ia i mea olioli a me ka hauoli, A i mau ahaaina olioli i ka ohana a Iuda; Nolaila e makemake oukou i ka oiaio a me ke kuikahi
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnes, and prosperous hie feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
20 Penei ka olelo ana a Iehova o na kaua, Ma ia hope aku no, E hele mai ai na kanaka, A me na kamaaina o na kulanakauhale he nui;
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, That there shall yet come people, and the inhabitants of great cities.
21 A e hele aku na kamaaina o kekahi wahi i kekahi, me ka i aku, E haele pu kakou e pule imua o Iehova, A e imi aku ia Iehova o na kaua: Owau hoi kekahi e hele.
And they that dwell in one citie, shall go to another, saying, Vp, let vs go and pray before the Lord, and seeke the Lord of hostes: I wil go also.
22 A e hele mai na kanaka he nui loa, A me na lahuikanaka ikaika, E imi ia Iehova o na kaua ma Ierusalema, A e pule imua o Iehova.
Yea, great people and mightie nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
23 Penei ka olelo ana mai o Iehova o na kana, ia manawa, E lalau mai na kanaka he umi no na lahuikanaka o na olelo a pau, E lalau mai auanei lakou i ke kapa o ke kanaka Iudaio, Me ka i ana mai, E hele pu makou me oe; No ka mea, ua lohe makou, me oe pu no ke Akua.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, In those dayes shall ten men take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen take holde of the skirt of him that is a Iewe, and say, We will go with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.
