Zepania 3
1 A UWE ka mea e kipi ana, a me ka mea haumia, Ke kulanakauhale hookoikoi.
This is the scornful city that dwells securely, that says in her heart, I am, and there is no longer any [to be] after me: how is she become desolate, a habitation of wild beasts! every one that passes through her shall hiss, and shake his hands. Alas the glorious and ransomed city.
2 Aole ia i hoolohe i ka leo, aole hoi i ae aku i ke aoia mai; Aole hoi ia i paulele ia Iehova, Aole ia i hookokoke aku i kona Akua.
The dove listened not to the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord, and she drew not near to her God.
3 O na'lii iloko ona, he poe liona uwo lakou; O na lunakanawai ona, he poe iliohae o ke ahiahi; Aole lakou e hookoe a hiki i ke kakahiaka.
Her princes within her were as roaring lions, her judges as the wolves of Arabia; they remained not till the morrow.
4 He poe haaheo na kaula ona, na kanaka hoopunipuni; Ua hoohaumia na kahuna ona i ke keenakapu, Ua haihai lakou i ke kanawai.
Her prophets are light [and] scornful men: her priests profane the holy things, and sinfully transgress the law.
5 Iwaenakonu o lakou o Iehova ka mea hoopono, Aole ia e hana i ka pono ole; E hoakaka mai ana ia i kona pono ia kakahiaka ae, ia kakahiaka ae, aole haule; Aka, o ka mea hana hewa, aole ia i hoomaopopo i ka hilahila,
But the just Lord is in the midst of her, and he will never do an unjust thing: morning by morning he will bring out his judgment to the light, and it is not hidden, and he knows not injustice by extortion, nor injustice in strife.
6 Ua hooki iho au i na lahuikanaka; Ua hoohioloia na pakaua o lakou; Ua hooneoneo au i ko lakou mau alanui, i maalo ole ae kekahi ilaila; Ua hoohinaia na kulanakauhale o lakou, a koe ole kekahi, Aole hoi e noho ana kekahi kanaka iloko.
I have brought down the proud with destruction; their corners are destroyed: I will make their ways completely waste, so that none shall go through: their cities are come to an end, by reason of no man living or dwelling [in them].
7 Olelo iho la au, Ina oe e makau mai ia'u, a e ae mai i ke aoia, I hooki ole ia'i kona noho ana, e like me na mea a'ue olelo mua ai nona: Aka, ua ala lakou i ka wanaao, e hoohaumia i ka lakou hana a pau.
I said, But do you fear me, and receive instruction, and you shall not be cut off from the face of the land [for] all the vengeance I have brought upon her: prepare you, rise early: all their produce is spoilt.
8 No ia mea, e kali oukou ia'u, wahi a Iehova, A hiki i ka la a'u e ku ae ai i ka waiwai pio: No ka mea, o kuu manao no e houluulu i na lahuikanaka, e hoakoakoa i ko na aupuni, E ninini iho i kuu inaina maluna o lakou, i ka wela a pau o ko'u huhu; No ka mea, e pau auanei ka honua a pau i ke ahi o kuu lili.
Therefore wait upon me, says the Lord, until the day when I rise up for a witness: because my judgment [shall be] on the gatherings of the nations, to draw to me kings, to pour out upon them all [my] fierce anger: for the whole earth shall be consumed with the fire of my jealousy.
9 Alaila au e haawi aku ai i na kanaka i ka Iehelehe maikai, I kahea aku ai lakou a pau i ka inoa o Iehova, A e hookauwa aku ai nana me ka poohiwi hookahi.
For then will I turn to the peoples a tongue for her generation, that all may call on the name of the Lord, to serve him under one yoke.
10 Mai na aina mai o ka muliwai o Aitiopa, E lawe mai ana ko'u poe haipule, o ke kaikamahine o ko'u poe hele liilii, i alana na'u.
From the boundaries of the rivers of Ethiopia will I receive my dispersed ones; they shall offer sacrifices to me.
11 Ia la no, aole oe e hilahila i kau hana ana a pau, I na mea au i lawehala ai ia'u: No ka mea, alaila au e lawe aku ai mai ou aku la i kou poe e olioli i ka hookiekie; I ole ai oe e hookiekie hou aku ma kuu mauna hoano.
In that day you shall not be ashamed of all your practices, wherein you have transgressed against me: for then will I take away from you your disdainful pride, and you shall no more magnify yourself upon my holy mountain.
12 A e hoolilo au i na kanaka i koe iwaena o oukou i poe haahaa, a me ka ilihune, A e paulele auanei lakou i ka inoa o Iehova.
And I will leave in you a meek and lowly people;
13 Aole e hana ino ke koena o ka Iseraela, Aole hoi e olelo hoopunipuni lakou; Aole no hoi e loaa ka elelo wahahee iloko o ko lakou waha; Aka, e ai auanei iakou, a e moe iho, aole kekahi mea e hooweliweli ana ia lakou.
and the remnant of Israel shall fear the name of the Lord, and shall do no iniquity, neither shall they speak vanity; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed, and lie down, and there shall be none to terrify them.
14 E mele oe, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona, E hooho aku, e ka Iseraela, e olioli, E hauoli hoi me kou naau a pau, e ke kaikamahine o Ierusalema,
Rejoice, O daughter of Sion; cry aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem; rejoice and delight yourself with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
15 Ua lawe aku la o Iehova i kou hoohewaia ana, Ua kipaku aku la i kou poe enemi; O Iehova ke alii o ka Iseraela, oia no iwaena ou; Aole hoi oe e ike hou i ka hewa.
The Lord has taken away your iniquities, he has ransomed you from the hand of your enemies: the Lord, the King of Israel, is in the midst of you: you shall not see evil any more.
16 Ia la la, e oleloia auanei ia Ierusalema, Mai makau oe: E Ziona, Mai hoonawaliwali i kou mau lima.
At that time the Lord shall say to Jerusalem, Be of good courage, Sion; let not your hands be slack.
17 O Iehova o kou Akua iwaena ou, He mana kona, e hoola mai ana oia; E olioli auanei oia nou me ka hauoli, E noho malie oia i kona aloha, E hauoli oia nou me ka mele ana.
The Lord your God is in you; the Mighty One shall save you: he shall bring joy upon you, and shall refresh you with his love; and he shall rejoice over you with delight as in a day of feasting.
18 E houluulu ana au i ka poe e u ana no kau mau ahaaina, i lilo ai lakou nou, Ka poe kaumaha i ka hoinoia nona.
And I will gather your afflicted ones. Alas! who has taken up a reproach against her?
19 Aia hoi, e hoauhee auanei au i ka poe a pau i hoopilikia ia oe ia manawa; A e malama no au i ka mea oopa, a e hoihoi mai ana no au I ka mea i kipakuia'ku; A e haawi au ia lakou i ka hoomaikaiia, a me ka inoa kaulana, Ma na aina a pau i hoohilahilaia'i lakou.
Behold, I [will] work in you for your sake at that time, says the Lord: and I will save her that was oppressed, and receive her that was rejected; and I will make them a praise, and honored in all the earth.
20 Ia manawa no na'u oukou e alakai mai, I ka manawa a'u e houluulu ai ia oukou: A e hookaulana au i ko oukou inoa no ka hoomaikaiia iwaena o na kanaka a pau o ka honua, I kuu wa e hoihoi mai ai i ko oukou pio ana, imua o ko oukou mau maka, wahi a Iehova.
And [their enemies] shall be ashamed at that time, when I shall deal well with you, and at the time when I shall receive you: for I will make you honored and a praise among all the nations of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before you, says the Lord.
