< Isaiah 8 >

1 And Jehovah said unto me, Take thee a great tablet, and write upon it with the pen of a man, For Maher-shalal-hash-baz;
I MAI la o Iehova ia'u, E lawe oe i ka papa palapala nui nou, a e kahakaha maluna olaila me ka peni kahakaha, no Mahera-sala-hasaba.
2 and I will take unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.
Alaila, lawe iho la au i kekahi mau mea pono, i poe hoike, ia Uria hoi i ke kahuna, a me Zekaria ke keiki a Ieberekia.
3 And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. Then said Jehovah unto me, Call his name Maher-shalal-hash-baz.
A ua hookokoke au i ke kaula wahine, a ua hapai no ia, a ua hanau, he keikikane. I mai la o Iehova ia'u, E kapa aku i kona inoa, Mahera-sala-hasaba.
4 For before the child shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and, My mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.
No ka mea, mamua o ka ike ana o ke keiki e hea aku, E ko'u makuakane, e ko'u makuwahine, e laweia'ku no ka waiwai o Damaseko, a me ka waiwaipio o Samaria, imus o ke alii o Asuria.
5 And Jehovah spake unto me yet again, saying,
Aka, olelo hou mai la o Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
6 Forasmuch as this people have refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah’s son;
No ka hoowahawaha aua o keia poe kanaka i ka wai o Siloa e kahe malie ana, A hauoli hoi ma Rezina, a me ke keiki a Remalia;
7 now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the River, strong and many, [even] the king of Assyria and all his glory: and it shall come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks;
Nolaila, aia hoi! e lawe mai no ka Haku maluna o lakou, I na wai he ikaika a he nui, o ka muliwai, I ke alii hoi o Asuria, a me kona hanohano alii a pao, A e hu no ia mawaho o kona manowai a pau, A e kahe hoi maluna o koua mau kapa a pau.
8 and it shall sweep onward into Judah; it shall overflow and pass through; it shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of its wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.
E hu no ia maluna o Iuda, a holo moku hoi, E pii no a hiki i ka a-i; A o ka hohola ana o kona mau eheu, O ka palahalaha ia o kou aina, e Imanuela.
9 Make an uproar, O ye peoples, and be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces.
E hana ino oukou, e na kanaka, a e mokuahana hoi; E holohe mai, e na aina a pau o kahi loihi; E kaei oukou ia oukou iho, e mokuahana no; E kaei oukou ia oukou iho, e mokuahana no.
10 Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us.
E ohumn pu oukou, a e hookahuliia ka ohuma ana, E kau oukou i ka olelo, aole nae ia e paa: No ka mea, o ke Akua pu me makou.
11 For Jehovah spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,
Olelo o Iehova ia'u peuei, ma ke koi ana mai o ka lima, A ao mai la oia ia'u aole e hele ma ka aoao o keia poe kanaka, i mai la,
12 Say ye not, A conspiracy, concerning all whereof this people shall say, A conspiracy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be in dread [thereof].
Mai olelo oukou. He kipi. Ma na wahi a pau i olelo ai keia poe kanaka. He kipi; Mai makau oukou i ko laku mea e makau ai, Mai hopohopo hoi oukou.
13 Jehovah of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
O Iehova o na kaua, oia ka oukou e hoolaa ai, Oia hoi ka oukou e makau ai, a e hopohopo hoi oukou ia ia.
14 And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
A e lilo ia i puuhonua, I pohaku no hoi kekahi e kuia'i, A i puu no hoi e hina'i No na ohana elua o ka Iseraela, I pahele, a i upiki no ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema.
15 And many shall stumble thereon, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
He nui ko lakou poe e kuia'i, A me ka poe e bina ana, a eha, A me ka poe e boopaheleia, a paa hoi.
16 Bind thou up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
E opeope i ka hoike ana, E hoopaa hoi i ka wanana, imua o ka'u poe haumana.
17 And I will wait for Jehovah, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
Aka, e kakali no au ia Iehova, Ka mea i huna i kona maka mai ka ohana a Iakoba aku, A ia ia no wau e hilinai ai.
18 Behold, I and the children whom Jehovah hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from Jehovah of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion.
Eia hoi au, a me na keiki a Iehova i haawi mai ai na'u, I mau hoailona, a i mau ouli hoi maloko o ka Iseraels, Mai Iehova o na kaua mai, Ka mea e noho la ma ka mauna o Ziona.
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits and unto the wizards, that chirp and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? on behalf of the living [should they seek] unto the dead?
A olelo mai lakou ia oukou, E hele i ka poe ninau kupapau, a i na kupua hoi, I ka poe muki, a me ka mea namu liilii; Aole anei e hele na kanaka i ko lakou Akua? E hele anei i ka poe make no na mea e ola ana?
20 To the law and to the testimony! if they speak not according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.
Ma ke kanawai, a ma ka hoike ana hoi; Ina olelo ole lakou e like me ia olelo, Aole e puka mai ke ao maluna o lakou.
21 And they shall pass through it, sore distressed and hungry; and it shall come to pass that, when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse by their king and by their God, and turn their faces upward:
E kuewa wale lakou malaila, Me ke kaumaha a me ka pololi; A hiki i ka wa e pololi ai lakou, Ia lakou iho no lakou e huhu ai, Alaila, e olelo hoino no lakou, I ko lakou alii, a me ko lakou Akua, Alaila, e nana no iluna.
22 and they shall look unto the earth, and, behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish; and into thick darkness [they shall be] driven away.
E nana hoi lakou ma ka aina; Aia hoi! he popilikia, a me ka pouli, He pouli ino hoi; Ua kipakuia iloko o ka poeleele.
