Zekaria 9
1 KA wanana o ka olelo a Iehova i ka aina o Haderaka, A o Damaseko kona wahi o hoomaha ai; No ka mea, ua kau pono ia ka maka o na kanaka, a me ka ohana a pau o ka Iseraela maluna o Iehova:
The oracle of the word of Yahweh on the land of Hadrach, and, Damascus, shall be the resting-place thereof, —For, Yahweh, hath an eye—to mankind, and to all the tribes of Israel;
2 A o Hamata hoi kona palena; O Turo hoi, a me Zidona, no ka mea, ua naauao loa ia.
Moreover also, Hamath, adjoineth thereto, Tyre and Zidon, —because very wise;
3 A kukulu iho la o Turo i pakaua nona, A ahu iho la i ke kala e like me ka lepo, A me ke gula e like me ka naele o na alanui.
Therefore did Tyre build a stronghold for herself, —and did heap up silver like dust, yea gold, like the mire of the lanes.
4 Aia hoi, na ka Haku ia e hookuke aku, A e hoolei aku i kona waiwai iloko o ke kai; A e hoopauia auanei oia i ke ahi.
Lo! My Lord, shall dispossess her, and smite, into the sea, her fortress, —and, she herself, in fire, shall be consumed.
5 E ike auanei o Asekelona me ka makau; O Gaza hoi, a e haalulu nui loa ia; A me Ekerona; no ka mea, e poho auanei kona manaolana; E make ke alii o Gaza, A e kanaka ole auanei o Asekelona.
Ashkelon, shall see, and fear, Gaza, also, which shall writhe in great anguish, Ekron, also, because abashed is her expectation, —and the king, shall perish, from Gaza, and, Ashkelon, not be inhabited;
6 A e noho ka malihini ma Asedoda, A e hooki iho no wau i ke kiekie o ka poe Pilisetia.
And there shall be seated a half-breed in Ashdod, —So will I cut off the arrogance of the Philistines;
7 E lawe aku hoi au i kona koko mailoko mai o kona waha, A me kona mau mea hoopailua mai o kona mau niho. Aka, o ka mea i waihoia, no ko kakou Akua ia, E like auanei ia me ka lunaaina, ma ka Iuda, A o Ekerona hoi me he Iebusi la:
And will take away his reeking prey out of his mouth, and his abominations, from between his teeth, but, he that is left, even he, shall belong to our God, —So shall he become as a chief in Judah, and, Ekron, as a Jebusite!
8 E hoomoana no wau a puni ka hale o'u, no ka poe kaua, I ko lakou hele ae ana a i ka hoi mai ana; Aole hoi e puka hou ae kekahi alii hooluhi iwaena o lakou; No ka mea, ua ike no ka'u mau maka.
Then will I encamp about my house—against an army, against him that passeth by, and against him that returneth, neither shall an exactor, tread them down any more, —for, now, have I seen with mine own eyes.
9 E hauoli nui, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona, E hooho olioli, e ke kaikamahine o Ierusalema; Aia hoi, e hele mai ana kou alii iou la: He hoopono, a he hoola no kona; He akahai no, a e noho ana maluna o ka hoki, o ke keiki hoi a ka hoki.
Exult greatly, O daughter of Zion, Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo! thy king, cometh unto thee, vindicated and victorious, is he, —lowly, and riding upon an ass, yea, upon a colt, a young ass.
10 E hoopau auanei hoi au i na halekaa mai ko Eperaima aku, A me ka lio mai Ierusalema aku: E hookiia hoi ke kakaka kaua; A e hai aku auanei oia i ka maluhia i na lahuikanaka; A mai kekahi kai a hiki i kela kai kona aupuni, A mai ka muliwai aku a hiki i na palena o ka honua.
So will he cut off the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the war-bow, shall be cut off, So shall he speak peace to the nations, and, his dominion, shall be from sea to sea, and from the river [Euphrates] to the ends of the earth.
11 O oe hoi, no ke koko o kau berita, E hookuu aku no au i kou poe paahao, Mailoko ae o ka lua meki, o kahi wai ole.
As for thee also, —By the blood of thy covenant, have I sent forth thy prisoners out of a pit, wherein is no water.
12 E huli ae oukou i ka pakaua, e ka poe pio manaolana; No ka mea, ke hai aku nei au i neia la, E uku palua aku no au nau.
Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope, —Even to-day, do I declare—Double, will I return to thee!
13 No ka mea, e lena auanei au i ka Iuda no'u, E lena hoi au i ka Eperaima e like me ka kakaka, Alaila e hoeueu ae hoi au i kau mau keiki, e Ziona; E ku e i kau mau keiki, e Iavana, A e hoolilo au ia oe e like me ka pahikaua a ke kanaka koa.
For I have bent for me—Judah, As a bow, have I grasped Ephraim, Thus will I rouse up thy sons, O Zion, against the sons of Greece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty one.
14 A e ikea auanei o Iehova maluna o lakou, A e lele aku kona pua e like me ka uila; A e hookani o Iehova ka Haku i ka pu, A e hele aku no ia iloko o na makani ino o ke kukuluhema.
But, Yahweh, over them, will appear, and forth shall go, as lightning, his arrow, —Yea, My Lord Yahweh, with a horn, will blow, and will move along in the whirlwinds of the south.
15 Na Iehova o na kaua lakou e hoomalu mai; E ai iho lakou, a e hehi lakou maluna o na ala o ka maa; a e inu lakou, a e walaau e like me ka poe inu waina: A e hoopihaia lakou e like me na bola, a me na kihi o ke kuahu.
Yahweh of hosts, will throw a covering over them, so shall they eat, and trample underfoot sling-stones, and shall drink—shall shout as with wine, —and shall be filled like tossing-bowls, —like the corners of an altar.
16 A e malama mai o Iehova ko lakou Akua ia lakou ia la, E like me ka ohana hipa, i poe kanaka nona; No ka mea, e lilo auanei lakou i mau pohaku maikai o ka papalealii, I hookiekieia maluna o kona aina,
So will Yahweh their God, save them, on that day. yea, as a flock of sheep, his people, —for [they shall be like] the jewels of a diadem sparkling over his land.
17 Nani ka nui o kona lokomaikai! Nani hoi ka nui o kona maikai! O ka palaoa ka mea e hooulu ai i na keikikane, A o ka waina hou i na kaikamahine.
For how excellent it is! Yea how beautiful! Corn, shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maidens.
