Isaia 55
1 E A! na mea a pau e makewai, E hele mai oukou i na wai, A o ka mea kala ole, e hele mai hoi oukou, e kuai no, a e ai iho; Oia, e hele mai, e kuai i ka waina, a me ka waiu, me ke kala ole, a me ke kumu ole.
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 No ke aha la oukou i kaupaona aku ai i ka oukou kala i ka mea, aole ia he berena? A i ko oukou waiwai hoi, i ka mea hoomaona ole mai? E hoolohe pono mai oukou ia'u, a e ai hoi i ka mea i maikai io, A e olioli hoi ko oukou uhane ma ka momona.
Why do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labor for [that which] satisfieth not? hearken diligently to me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3 E haliu mai i ko oukou pepeiao, a e hele mai ia'u; A hoolohe mai, a e ola no ko oukou uhane; A e hana no au me oukou i berita mau loa, I ka lokomaikai oiaio hoi o Davida.
Incline your ear, and come to me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.
4 Aia hoi, ua haawi aku au ia ia i mea hoike no na kanaka, I alakai hoi, a i luna no na lahuikanaka.
Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
5 Aia hoi, e kahea aku no oe i ka lahuikanaka au i ike ole ai; A o ka lahuikanaka i ike ole ia oe, e holo aku no lakou iou la, No Iehova, kou Akua, a no ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela; No ka mea, ua hoonani mai oia ia oe.
Behold, thou shalt call a nation [that] thou knowest not, and nations [that] knew not thee shall run to thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
6 E imi oukou ia Iehova, oiai oia ma kahi e loaa'i, E hea aku ia ia, oiai oia ma kahi kokoke.
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 E haalele ke kanaka hewa i kona aoao, A me ke kanaka lawehala, i kona mau manao; A e hoi mai hoi oia io Iehova la, a e lokomaikai no oia ia ia, A i ko kakou Akua hoi, no ka mea, e kala nui loa auanei oia.
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return to the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 No ka mea, o ko'u mau manao, aole ia o ko oukou mau manao, A o ko oukou mau aoao, aole ia o ko'u mau aoao, wahi a Iehova.
For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 No ka mea, e like me ke kiekie o na lani maluna o ka honua, Pela no ke kiekie o ko'u mau aoao maluna o ko oukou mau aoao, A me ko'u mau manao, maluna o ko oukou mau manao.
For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 No ka mea, e like me ka ua, a me ka hau i iho mai, mai na lani mai, Aole hoi e hoi hou ilaila, aka, e hoomau mai no i ka honua, A hoohua iho la ia ia, e hoomuo no hoi, I haawi mai ia i ka hua na ka mea lulu hua, A i berena hoi na ka mea ai;
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 Pela auanei ka'u olelo, ka mea i puka aku, mai ko'u waha aku, Aole ia e hoi nele mai ia'u; Aka, e hana no ia i ka mea a'u e makemake ai, A e hooko io ia i ka mea a'u e hoouna aku ai ia ia.
So shall my word be that proceedeth from my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] for which I sent it.
12 No ka mea, e puka aku auanei oukou me ka olioli, A e alakaiia'ku oukou me ka malu: E hookani i ke oli na kuahiwi, a me na mauna imua o oukou, A e paipailima hoi na laau a pau o ke kula.
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap [their] hands.
13 Ma kahi o ke kakalaioa e ulu mai auanei ka laau kaa, A ma kahi o ka laau ooi, ka hadasa hoi; A e lilo ia i mea kaulana no Iehova, I ouli mau loa no hoi e hooki ole ia'i.
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir-tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle-tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.
