Isaia 5
1 E MELE aku au no kuu hiwahiwa, I ke mele o kuu hiwahiwa no kona pawaina. He pawaina ko kuu hiwahiwa, Aia ma ka puu hua nui.
Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.
2 Kohi iho la ia a puni i na makalua, A hoolei aku la i na pohaku ona, A malaila ia i kanu ai i kumu waina maikai, A kukulu no hoi i hale kiai maloko, A kalai iho la i lua kaomi waina malaila; A kakali iho la no ka hua ana mai i huawaina, Aka, hua mai la ia i ka haakea.
He dug it up, gathered out its stones, planted it with the choicest vine, built a tower in its midst, and also cut out a winepress in it. He looked for it to yield grapes, but it yielded wild grapes.
3 Ano hoi, e ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema, A me na kanaka o ka Iuda, E hooponopono oukou iwaena o'u, a me ko'u pawaina.
"Now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, please judge between me and my vineyard.
4 Heaha ka mea hou e hiki ia'u ke hana no ko'u pawaina, I hana ole ia e au iloko ona? Ia'u i kakali ai no ka hua ana mai i na huawaina, No ke aha la ia i hua mai ai i ka haakea?
What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? Why, when I looked for it to yield grapes, did it yield wild grapes?
5 Ano hoi, e hai aku no wau ia oukou, I ko'u mea e hana'i i ko'u pawaina. E wawahi au i kona pa e ulu ana, a e pau no ia i ka aiia; E hoohiolo no hoi au i kona pa pohaku, a e pau no ia i ka hahiia:
Now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it will be eaten up. I will break down its wall of it, and it will be trampled down.
6 E anai loa no wau ia wahi; Aole ia e paipaiia, aole hoi e olaolaoia: Aka, e ulu no ke kakalaioa malaila, a me ka laaukalakala; A na'u no e kauoha aku i na ao, I ua ole mai lakou i ka ua maluna ona.
I will lay it a wasteland. It won't be pruned nor hoed, but it will grow briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain on it."
7 No ka mea, o ka pawaina o Iehova o na kaua, Oia ka ohana o ka Iseraela, O na kanaka hoi o ka Iuda kana mea kanu i olioli ai. Kakali iho la oia i ka hoopono, aia ka! he hookahe koko ana, Kakali no i ka maikai, aia ka! He nwe ana.
For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for justice, but, look, oppression; for righteousness, but, look, a cry of distress.
8 Auwe ka poe i hoopili i kekahi hale i kekahi hale, A me ka poe i hui i kekahi mahinaai i kekahi mahinaai, A koe ole kahi kaawale, I noho o oukou wale no iwaena konu o ka aina!
Woe to those who join house to house, who lay field to field, until there is no room, and you are made to dwell alone in the midst of the land.
9 Ma kuu pepeiao i hai mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, He oiaio no, e lilo ana na hale he nui loa i neoneo, A kanaka ole hoi na hale nui, a maikai.
In my ears, the LORD of hosts says: "Surely many houses will be desolate, even great and beautiful, unoccupied.
10 E hua mai ana na eka pawaina he umi, i hookahi bata: A o ka omera hua e hua mai ia i hookahi epa.
For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah."
11 Auwe ka poe e ala ana i kakahiaka nui, e inu i ka mea awaawa, A kakali hoi a malehulehu, i wela ai lakou i ka waina!
Woe to those who rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; who stay late into the night, until wine inflames them.
12 O ka mea kani, a me ka lira, O ka pahu kani, a me ka hokiokio, O ka waina kekahi ma ka lakou ahaaina: Aole o lakou manao i ka hana a Iehova; A o ka hana hoi a kona mau lima, aole lakou i ike.
The harp, lyre, tambourine, and flute, with wine, are at their feasts; but they do not regard the work of the LORD, neither have they considered the operation of his hands.
13 Nolaila, hele pio aku la ko'u poe kanaka, no ka ike ole; A make no ko lakou poe hanohano i ka pololi, A maloo ko lakou lehulehu i ka makewai.
Therefore my people go into captivity for lack of knowledge. Their honorable men are famished, and their multitudes are parched with thirst.
14 Nolaila i hoomahuahua ai ka po i kona makemake, A i hamama nui loa hoi i kona waha; E poho no ilalo kona nani, a me kona hooho ana, A me kona lehulehu, a me ka hauoli iloko ona. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore Sheol has enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, their multitude, their pomp, and he who rejoices among them, descend into it. (Sheol h7585)
15 E kulou no ilalo ke kanaka uuku, E hoohaahaaia ke kanaka nui, A e hoohaahaaia na maka o ka poe haaheo;
So man is brought low, humankind is humbled, and the eyes of the arrogant ones are humbled;
16 E hapai nui ia o Iehova o na kaua no ka hoopono, A e hoanoia ke Akua, ka Mea Hemolele, no ka pololei.
but the LORD of hosts is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.
17 E ai no na keikihipa malaila, e like me ko lakou kula iho, A o hoopau no na malihini i na mea i koe o ka poe waiwai.
Then the lambs will graze as in their pasture, and kids will eat the ruins of the rich.
18 Auwe ka poe kauo i ka poino maluna o lakou iho, me na kaula o ka hewa, A me ka hewa hoi, me he kaula la o ke kaa;
Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and wickedness as with cart rope;
19 Ka poe i olelo, E hana wikiwiki oia i kana hana, I ike makou: E neenee hoi a hookoia mai ka manao paa o ka Mea hemolele o ka Iseraela, I hoomaopopo makou!
Who say, "Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it."
20 Auwe ka poe kapa aku i ka hewa, he maikai; A i ka maikai hoi, he hewa; Ka poe i hoolilo i ka pouli, i malamalama, A i ka malamalama hoi, i pouli; A kapa i ka mea awaawa, he ono, A i ka mea ono hoi, he awaawa!
Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.
21 Auwe ka poe i akamai i ko lakou mau maka iho, A naauao hoi i ko lakou manao iho!
Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight.
22 Auwe ka poe ikaika i ka inu waina, A me na kanaka ikaika i ke kawili i wai awaawa e inu ai:
Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine, and champions at mixing strong drink;
23 Ka poe i hoapono aku i ka mea hewa no ke kipeia, A kaili aku i ka hoapono o ka mea i pono, mai ona aku la!
who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice for the innocent.
24 Nolaila, e like me ka ai ana o ka lapalapa ahi i ka opala, A me ka pau ana o ka mauu i puhiia i ke ahi, Pela e lilo ai ko lakou kumu i ka popopo, A e lele hoi iluna ko lakou pua, e like me ka huna lepo: No ka mea; ua haalele lakou i ke kanawai o Iehova o na kaua, Ua hoowahawaha hoi i ka olelo a ka Mea hemolele o ka Iseraela.
Therefore as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as the dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust; because they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Nolaila i hoaaia'i ka inaina o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, A ua o aku no oia i kona lima e ku e ia lakou, A ua hahau no oia ia lakou, a e haalulu na mauna: A e like auanei ko lakou kupapau me ka opala ma na alanui: Aole nae i huli aku kona huhu no keia mau mea a pau, Aka, ke o mai nei no kona lima i keia manawa.
Therefore the LORD's anger burns against his people, and he has stretched out his hand against them, and has struck them. The mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.
26 E kau no nae oia i ka hae, no na aina ma kahi loihi, A pio aku no oia ia lakou ma na welau o ka honua; Aia hoi! me ka wikiwiki loa lakou e hele mai ai.
He will lift up a banner to the nations from far, and he will whistle for them from the far regions of the earth. Look, they will come speedily and swiftly.
27 Aohe mea o lakou e maloeloe, aohe mea kulanalana; Aohe mea i luluhi na maka, aohe mea hiamoe; Aohe mea i wehe i ke kaei o kona puhaka, Aole e moku ke kaula o kona kamaa.
None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the belt of their waist be untied, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:
28 Ua hookalaia ko lakou pua, Ua lena ko lakou kakaka a pau; Ua like na maiuu o ko lakou lio, me ka pohaku, A me ko lakou kaa, me ka puahiohio.
whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent. Their horses' hoofs will be like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind.
29 E like auanei ko lakou uwo ana me ko ka liona, E uwo no lakou e like me na liona hou; E nunulu lakou, a hopu aku i ka mea pio, A e lawe aku, aohe mea e pakele ai.
Their roaring will be like a lioness. They will roar like young lions. Yes, they shall roar, and seize their prey and carry it off, and there will be no one to deliver.
30 Ia la la, e halulu ku e no oia ia lakou, E like me ka halulu ana o ke kai; Alaila, e nana lakou ma ka aina, Aia hoi, he pouli ino! Ua lilo ka malamalama i pouli, no na ao eleele ona!
They will roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea. If one looks to the land look, darkness and distress. The light is darkened in its clouds.
