Zekaria 12

1 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.

An oracle. This is the message of the Lord about Israel. The Lord who stretches out the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the human spirit within people says:

2 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.

Look! I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness for all the surrounding peoples. There will be a siege of Jerusalem.

3 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.

On that day that I will make Jerusalem a stone to be lifted up by all the peoples. All who lift it up will surely hurt themselves! And all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.

4 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.

On that day, says the Lord, I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness. But over the house of Judah I will keep watch, though I strike every horse belonging to the peoples with blindness.

5 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.

And the chieftains of Judah will say to themselves, ‘The strength of the inhabitants is in the Lord of hosts their God.’

6 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.

In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire in the woods, like a torch among sheaves, they will devour right and left all the surrounding peoples. But Jerusalem will abide on its own site.

7 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.

And the Lord will first give victory to the tents of Judah, so that the glory of the house of David, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not exalted above Judah.

8 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.

In that day the Lord will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the feeblest among them will in that day be like David, and the house of David like God, like the messenger of the Lord before them.

9 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.

And in that day I will seek to destroy all the nations who have come up against Jerusalem.

10 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.

And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of pity and compassion. They will look on him whom they have pierced and they will lament for him as one laments for an only son. They will bitterly grieve for him as one grieves for the firstborn.

11 Ia la hoi, e nui auanei ke kanikau ana ma Ierusalema, E like me ke kanikau ana o Hadaderimona ma ka papu o Megido.

In that day mourning will be as great in Jerusalem as the mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.

12 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;

And the land will mourn, each family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves, and the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves,

13 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.

and the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves, the family of the Shimeites by itself, and their wives by themselves,

14 O na ohana a pau e koe, ma ke kaawale, kela ohana keia ohana, A o ka lakou mau wahine ma ke kaawale.

and all the families who are left, each by itself, and their wives by themselves.
