< Isaiah 50 >

1 Yahweh says, “Where is the bill of your mother’s divorce, with which I have put her away? Or to which of my creditors have I sold you? Behold, you were sold for your iniquities, and your mother was put away for your transgressions.
KE ninau mai nei o Iehova penei, Auhea ka palapala hoohemo na ko oukou makuwahine? Ka mea a'u i hoohemo ai? Ua kuai lilo aku au ia oukou no wai o ka poe a'u i aie ai? Aia hoi, ua kuai lilo aku oukou ia oukou iho no ko oukou hewa, A no ko oukou hala, ua hoohemoia ko oukou makuwahine.
2 Why, when I came, was there no one? When I called, why was there no one to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it can’t redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea. I make the rivers a wilderness. Their fish stink because there is no water, and die of thirst.
Ia'u i hele mai ai, heaha ka mea i kanaka ole ai? A ia'u i hea aku ai, aohe mea nana i o mai? Ua hoopokole loa ia anei ko'u lima, i ole au e hoola aku? Aole anei o'u mana e hoopakele ai? Aia hoi, i kuu papa ana, hoomaloo no wau i ke kai, A hoolilo no wau i na muliwai, i waonahele; Pilau mai la ko lakou ia, no ka mea, aohe wai, e make hoi, no ka makewai.
3 I clothe the heavens with blackness. I make sackcloth their covering.”
Hoaahu no au i na lani i ka pouli, A kau aku au i ke kapa makena, i uhi no lakou.
4 The Lord Yahweh has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with words him who is weary. He awakens morning by morning, he awakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.
Ua haawi mai o Iehova ka Haku i ke alelo o ka poe akamai na'u, I ike au i ka hooikaika aku i ka mea luhi me ka olelo, Hoala mai no oia i kela kakahiaka i keia kakahiaka, Hoala mai no oia i ko'u pepeiao, e lohe, e like me ka mea i aoia.
5 The Lord Yahweh has opened my ear. I was not rebellious. I have not turned back.
Ua hoohakahaka o Iehova, ka Haku, i ko'u pepeiao, Aole hoi au i kipi aku, aole au i hoi hope.
6 I gave my back to those who beat me, and my cheeks to those who plucked off the hair. I didn’t hide my face from shame and spitting.
Haawi no au i ko'u kua i ka poe hahau, A me ko'u mau papalina i ka poe i uhuki lauoho: Aole au i huna i ko'u maka, mai ka hilahila, a me ke kuha ana.
7 For the Lord Yahweh will help me. Therefore I have not been confounded. Therefore I have set my face like a flint, and I know that I won’t be disappointed.
Na Iehova, ka Haku e kokua mai ia'u, Nolaila, aole au e hoopalaimaka; Nolaila hoi au i kau ai i ko'u maka, me he pohaku paea la, A ua ike no au, aole au e hilahila ana.
8 He who justifies me is near. Who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together. Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me.
Ua kokoke mai no ka mea nana au e hoapono; Owai hoi ka mea hakaka me au? E ku pu aku maua: Owai ko'u hoapaio? E hookokoke mai oia ia'u.
9 Behold, the Lord Yahweh will help me! Who is he who will condemn me? Behold, they will all grow old like a garment. The moths will eat them up.
Aia hoi e kokua mai no o Iehova ka Haku ia'u; Owai hoi ka mea nana e hoahewa mai ia'u? Aia hoi, e lilo no lakou a pau i mea kahiko, me he lole la, E ai no ka mu ia lakou.
10 Who among you fears Yahweh and obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in Yahweh’s name, and rely on his God.
Owai la ka mea iwaena o oukou i makau aku ia Iehova, E hoolohe ana hoi i ka leo o kana kauwa, Ka mea e hele ana ma ka pouli, aole ona malamalama? E hilinai aku oia ma ka inoa o Iehova, A e hoomaha hoi ma kona Akua.
11 Behold, all you who kindle a fire, who adorn yourselves with torches around yourselves, walk in the flame of your fire, and among the torches that you have kindled. You will have this from my hand: you will lie down in sorrow.
Aia hoi, o oukou a pau, ka poe hoa i ke ahi, Ka poe i kakoo ia oukou iho i na lamaku; E hele oukou ma ka malamalama o ko oukou ahi, A me na lamaku a oukou i kuni ai. E loaa no keia ia oukou ma kuu lima, E moe ana no oukou ilalo iloko o ka eha.
