< Zechariah 12 >

1 A revelation of Yahweh’s word concerning Israel: Yahweh, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him says:
K A WANANA o ka olelo a Iehova no ka Iseraela, Wahi a Iehova, ka mea nana e hohola ae i na lani, A me ka hookumu iho i ka honua, A i hana hoi i ka uhane o ke kanaka maloko ona.
2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and it will also be on Judah in the siege against Jerusalem.
Aia hoi, e hoolilo no au ia Ierusalema i kiaha hoinu a ona i na kanaka a pau e puni ana; Pela no i ka Iuda, i ka hoopilikia ana ia Ierusalema.
3 It will happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.
Ia la hoi, e hoolilo au ia Ierusalema i pohaku kaumaha no na kanaka a pau: A o ka poe a pau i kaikai ia mea, e haehaeia lakou; A e hoakoakoaia auanei na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua e ku e ia wahi.
4 In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will strike every horse with terror and his rider with madness. I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
Ia la hoi, wahi a Iehova, E hahau auanei au i na lio a pau i ka makau, A me ka mea e noho ana maluna i ka hehena: A e hookaakaa au i kuu mau maka e nana i ka ohana a Iuda; Aka, e hoomakapo auanei au i na lio a pau o kanaka.
5 The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Yahweh of Armies their God.’
A e olelo na luna o ka Iuda iloko o ko lakou naau, O na kanaka o Ierusalema kuu ikaika, Iloko o Iehova Sabaota o ko lakou Akua.
6 In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.
Ia la la, e hoolilo au i na luna o ka Iuda e like me ke kapuahi iwaena o ka wahie, A e like hoi me ka lamaahi iloko o ka pua pili; A e hoopau auanei lakou i na kanaka a pau e puni ana ma ka akau a ma ka hema: A e hoonoho hou ia o Ierusalema ma kona wahi, ma Ierusalema.
7 Yahweh also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of David’s house and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.
E hoola hoi o Iehova i na halelewa o Iuda mamua, O hookiekie auanei ka nani o ka ohana a Davida a me ka nani o na kanaka o Ierusalema maluna o ka Iuda.
8 In that day Yahweh will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble among them at that day will be like David, and David’s house will be like God, like Yahweh’s angel before them.
Ia la hoi, e hoomalu iho o Iehova i na kanaka o Ierusalema: A ka mea nawaliwali iwaena o lakou ia la, e like ia me Davida; A e like hoi ka ohana a Davida me ka ke Akua, A me ka Anela o Iehova imua o lakou.
9 It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
Eia hoi kekahi ia la, E imi auanei au e hoopau ai i na lahuikanaka a pau, E hele ku e mai ana ia Ierusalema.
10 I will pour on David’s house and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplication. They will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for his firstborn.
A e ninini iho au maluna o ka ohana a Davida, A maluna o na kanaka o Ierusalema, I ka uhane o ke aloha a me ka pule; A e nana mai lakou ia'u i ka mea a lakou i hou mai ai, A e kanikau lakou nona, e like me ke kanikau ana i ke keiki ponoi, A e ehaeha loa lakou nona, e like me ka ehaeha ana o kekahi i kana keiki hanaukahi.
11 In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
Ia la hoi, e nui auanei ke kanikau ana ma Ierusalema, E like me ke kanikau ana o Hadaderimona ma ka papu o Megido.
12 The land will mourn, every family apart; the family of David’s house apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
E kanikau hoi ko ka aina, O kela ohana o keia ohana ma ke kaawale, O ka ohana o ka hale o Davida ma ke kaawale, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale; O ka ohana no ka hale o Natana ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale;
13 the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;
O ka ohana no ka hale o Levi ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale, O ka ohana no ka hale o Simei ma ke kaawale, A me ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.
14 all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
O na ohana a pau e koe, ma ke kaawale, kela ohana keia ohana, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.
