Mika 6
1 E HOOLOHE mai oukou ano i ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai; E ku iluna, e hakaka imua o na mauna, A e hoolohe na puu i kou leo.
Hear now a word: the Lord God has said; Arise, plead with the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice.
2 A hoolohe oukou, e na mauna i ka hoopaapaa o Iehova, A me oukou na kumu paa o ka honua: No ka mea, he hoopaapaa ko Iehova me kona poe kanaka, A e hoopaapaa no ia me ka Iseraela.
Hear you, O mountains, the controversy of the Lord, and [you] valleys [even] the foundations of the earth: for the Lord [has] a controversy with his people, and will plead with Israel.
3 E kuu poe kanaka, heaha ka'u i hana aku ai ia oe? Heaha ka'u i hooluhi ai ia oe? e hoike mai ia'u.
O my people, what have I done to you? or wherein have I grieved you? or wherein have I troubled you? answer me.
4 No ka mea, ua lawe mai au ia oe mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, A ua hoola au ia oe mai ka hale o na kauwa mai; A ua hoouna aku au imua ou ia Mose, ia Aarona, a me Miriama.
For I brought tee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, and sent before you Moses, and Aaron, and Mariam.
5 E kuu poe kanaka, e hoomanao ano i ka mea a Balaka, ke alii o Moaba, i noonoo ai, A i ka mea hoi a Balaama ke keiki a Beora i olelo mai ai ia ia, mai Sitima mai a Gilegala; I ike oukou i ka pono o Iehova.
O my people, remember now, what counsel Balac king of Moab took against you, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him, from the reeds to Galgal; that the righteousness of the Lord might be known.
6 Me ke aha la wau e hele aku ai imua o Iehova, A kulou iho imua o ke Akua kiekie? E hele anei au imua ona me na mohai kuni, Me na keiki bipi o ka makahiki hookahi?
Wherewithal shall I reach the Lord, [and] lay hold of my God most high? shall I reach him by whole burnt offerings, by calves of a year old?
7 E oluolu anei o Iehova i na tausani hipa kane? A me ka umi tausani muliwai aila? E haawi anei au i kuu makahiapo no kuu hala, I ka hua o kuu kino no ka hewa o ko'u uhane.
Will the Lord accept thousands of rams, or ten thousands of fat goats? should I give my firstborn for ungodliness, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 Ua hoike mai no ia ia oe, e ke kanaka, i ka mea maikai; A he aha ka mea a ke Akua i kauoha mai ai ia oe, Ke ole e hana i ka pono, a e aloha i ka lokomaikai, A e hoohaahaa i ka hele ana me ke Akua?
Has it [not] been told you, O man, what [is] good? or what does the Lord require of you, but to do justice, and love mercy, and be ready to walk with the Lord your God?
9 Ke kahea mai nei ka leo o Iehova i ke kulanakauhale, A o ka mea naauao e ike i kou inoa; E hoolohe oukou i ka hoopai aua, a me ka mea nana ia i hoike mai.
The Lord's voice shall be proclaimed in the city, and he shall save those that fear his name: hear, O tribe; and who shall order the city?
10 Aole anei, i keia wa, na waiwai hewa ma ka hale o ka poe hewa, A me ka epa uuku e hoowahawahaia?
[Is there] not fire, and the house of the wicked heaping up wicked treasures, and [that] with the pride of unrighteousness?
11 E maemae anei au me na mea kaupaona hewa, A me ka aa paona hoopunipuni?
Shall the wicked be justified by the balanced, or deceitful weights in the bag,
12 No ka mea, ua piha kona poe kanaka waiwai i ka hana ino, A ua olelo wahahee kona poe kanaka, A ua hoopunipuni ko lakou alelo ma ko lakou waha.
whereby they have accumulated their ungodly wealth, and they that dwell in the city have uttered falsehoods, and their tongue has been exalted in their mouth?
13 No ia hoi, e hoonawaliwali au ia oe, ma ka hahau ana ia oe, Ma ka hooneoneo ana ia oe no kou hewa.
Therefore will I begin to strike you; I will destroy you in your sins.
14 A e ai iho oe, aole e maona; Aia no iloko ou ka maule ana; A e lawe aku oe, aole e hoopakele, A o ka mea au e hoopakele ai, oia ka'u e haawi aku no ka pahikaua.
You shall eat, and shall not be satisfied; and there shall be darkness upon you; and he shall depart from [you], and you shall not escape; and all that shall escape shall be delivered over to the sword.
15 E lulu iho no oe, aka, aole oe e ohi mai; E hehi iho oe i na oliva, aole nae e poniia oe i ka aila; A i ka waina hou, aole nae oe e inu i ka waina.
You shall sow, but you shall not reap; you shall press the olive, but you shall not anoint yourself with oil; and [shall make] wine, but you shall drink no wine: and the ordinances of my people shall be utterly abolished.
16 No ka mea, ua malamaia na kanawai o Omeri, A me na hana a pau a ko ka hale o Ahaba, A ua hele oukou ma ko lakou manao; Nolaila, e hoolilo aku ai au ia oe i neoneo, A i kona poe kanaka i mea hoowahawahaia; A e lawe oukou i ka hoino o kuu poe kanaka.
For you have kept the statues of Zambri, and [done] all the works of the house of Achaab; and you have walked in their ways, that I might deliver you to utter destruction, and those that inhabit the city to hissing: and you shall bear the reproach of nations.
