< 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 burden of a word of Jehovah against the land of Hadrach, and Demmeseh — his place of rest: (When to Jehovah [is] the eye of man, And of 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.
And also Hamath doth border thereon, Tyre and Zidon, for — 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.
And Tyre doth build a bulwark to herself, And doth heap silver as dust, And gold as mire of out-places.
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, the Lord doth dispossess her, And He hath smitten in the sea her force, And she with fire is 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.
See doth Ashkelon and fear, Also Gaza, and she is exceedingly pained, Also Ekron — for her expectation dried up, And perished hath a king from Gaza, And Ashkelon doth not remain,
6 A e noho ka malihini ma Asedoda, A e hooki iho no wau i ke kiekie o ka poe Pilisetia.
And dwelt hath a foreigner in Ashdod, And I have cut off the excellency 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 turned aside his blood from his mouth, His abominations from between his teeth, And he hath remained, even he, to our God, And he hath been as a leader 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.
And I have pitched for My house a camp, Because of the passer through, and of the returner, And pass not through against them again doth an exactor, For, now, I have seen with My 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.
Rejoice exceedingly, O daughter of Zion, Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo, thy King doth come to thee, Righteous — and saved is He, Afflicted — and riding on an ass, And on a colt — a son of she-asses.
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.
And I have cut off the chariot from Ephraim, And the horse from Jerusalem, Yea, cut off hath been the bow of battle, And he hath spoken peace to nations, And his rule [is] from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of 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.
Also thou — by the blood of thy covenant, I have sent thy prisoners out of the pit, There is no water in it.
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.
Turn back to a fenced place, Ye prisoners of the hope, Even to-day a second announcer I restore 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 trodden for Me Judah, A bow I have filled [with] Ephraim, And I have stirred up thy sons, O Zion, Against thy sons, O Javan, And I have set thee as the sword of a hero.
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.
And Jehovah doth appear for them, And gone forth as lightning hath His arrow, And the Lord Jehovah with a trumpet bloweth, And He hath gone with 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.
Jehovah of Hosts doth cover them over, And they consumed, and subdued sling-stones, Yea, they have drunk, They have made a noise as wine, And they have been full as a bowl, As 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,
And saved them hath Jehovah their God In that day, as a flock of His people, For stones of a crown are displaying themselves over His ground.
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 what His goodness! and what His beauty! Corn the young men, And new wine the virgins — make fruitful!
