< Isaiah 29 >

1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel the city against which David fought: year has been added to year, the solemnities have unfolded.
A UWE o Ariela, o Ariela, ke kulanakauhale, Kahi a Davida i noho ai! E hookui aku oukou i kekahi makahiki me kekahi makahiki; E hoomau hoi i ka ahaaina ana.
2 And I will surround Ariel with siege works, and it will be in sorrow and mourning, and it will be like Ariel to me.
E hookaumaha aku no wau ia Ariela, A e nui auanei ka ehneha a me ke kaniuhu, A e like auanei ia ia'u me Ariela.
3 And I will surround you like a sphere all around you, and I will raise up a rampart against you, and I will set up fortifications to blockade you.
E hoomoana ku e aku au ia oe a puni, E hoopilikia aku au ia oe i na mea kaua, A e hana au i pakaua imua ou.
4 You will be brought low. You will speak from the ground, and your eloquence will be heard from the dirt. And, from the ground, your voice will be like that of the python, and your eloquence will mumble from the dirt.
A e hoohaahaaia auanei oe, A e kamailio mai no oe, mailoko mai o ka honua, A mai ka lepo mai e hooliiliiia kau olelo ana; E like auanei kou leo me ko ka poe ninau kupapau mailoko mai o ka honua, E like no hoi kau olelo ana, me ka ioio ana, mai ka lepo mai.
5 And the multitude of those who fan you will be like fine dust. And the multitude of those who have prevailed against you will be like embers fading away.
E like auanei ka lehulehu o kou poe malahini, Me na huna uuku o ka lepo, E like no hoi ka lehulehu o ka poe ikaika me ka opala lele, E hiki wawe ia, ma ke sekona.
6 And this will happen suddenly and swiftly. It will be visited from the Lord of hosts with thunder and earthquakes, and with the great noise of a whirlwind and a storm, and with a flame of devouring fire.
E hele hoohikilele mai o Iehova o na kaua ia oe, Me ka hekili a me ke olai, Me ka uwalaau nui, a me ka puahiohio, Me ka ino, a me ka lapalapa ahi e hoopau ana.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that have struggled against Ariel will be like the dream of a vision by night, along with all who have battled, and besieged, and prevailed against it.
E like me ka moe uhane, i ka wa e hihio ai i ka po, Pela auanei ka lehulehu o na lahuikanaka a pau, I kaua aku ia Ariela. Ka poe hoi i kaua aku i kona pakaua, A hookaumaha aku ia ia.
8 And it will be like one who is hungry and dreams of eating, but, when he has been awakened, his soul is empty. And it will be like one who is thirsty and dreams of drinking, but, after he has been awakened, he still languishes in thirst, and his soul is empty. So shall the multitude of all the nations be, who have struggled against Mount Zion.
E like mo ka moe uhane ana o ka mea pololi, Aia hoi, ke ai la; aka i kona hikilele ana, Ua hakahaka kona naau; E like hoi me ka moe uhane ana o ka mea makewai, Aia hoi, ke inu la; aka i kona hikilele ana, Aia hoi, ua nawaliwali, a ua ikaika loa ka makemake o kona naau: Pela auanei ka lehulehu o na lahuikanaka a pau, E kaua ana i ka mauna o Ziona.
9 Be stupefied and in wonder! Shake and quiver! Be inebriated, but not from wine! Stagger, but not from drunkenness!
E pihoihoi oukou, e kahaha hoi, E olioli no, a e makapo, Ua ona lakou, aole nae i ka waina, Ke hikaka nei, aole nae i ka wai ona.
10 For the Lord has mixed for you a spirit of deep sleep. He will close your eyes. He will cover your prophets and leaders, who see visions.
Ua ninini mai o Iehova maluna o oukou i ka manao hiamoe loa, A ua hoopili hoi i ko oukou mau maka; Ua uhi no oia i na kahuna, a me ko oukou poe alii a me na kaula.
11 And the vision of all will be to you like the words of a sealed book, which, when they have given it to someone who knows how to read, they will say, “Read this,” but he will respond, “I cannot; for it has been sealed.”
I like ka hoike ana a pau ia oukou Me na olelo o ka buke i hoopaaia i ka wepa, A i haawiia ia i ka mea ike i ka palapala, me ka olelo aku, E heluhelu i keia, ke noi aku nei au ia oe; A i mai kela, Aole hiki ia'u, no ka mea, ua paa i ka wepa.
12 But if the book is given to someone who does not know how to read, and it is said to him, “Read,” then he will respond, “I do not know how to read.”
A haawiia ka buke i ka mea ike ole i ka palapala, me ka olelo aku, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e heluhelu i keia; A i mai hoi oia, Aole au i ike i ka palapala.
13 And the Lord said: Since this people have drawn near to me only with their mouth, and their lips glorify me while their heart is far from me, and their fear of me is based on the commandments and doctrines of men,
Nolaila i olelo mai ai ka Haku, No ka hookokoke ana mai o keia poe kanaka ia'u me ko lakou waha, A hoomaikai mai ia'u ma ko lakou lehelehe, A ua mamao aku ko lakou naau mai o'u aku nei, A mamuli o ke kauoha a kanaka lakou e ao ai i ka makau ia'u;
14 for this reason, behold, I will proceed to accomplish a wonder for this people, a great and mystifying miracle. For wisdom will perish from their wise, and the understanding of their prudent will be concealed.
Nolaila au e hana aku ai i keia poe kanaka i ka mea kupanaha, I ka mea kupanaha a mana hoi; A e pau auanei ko akamai o ko lakou poe akamai, A e pee wale aku ka naauao o ka poe naauao.
15 Woe to you who use the depths of the heart, so that you may hide your intentions from the Lord. Their works are done in darkness, and so they say: “Who sees us?” and “Who knows us?”
Auwe ka poe imi e huna i ka ohumu ana mai o Iehova aku, A aia ma ka pouli ka lakou hana ana, A olelo mai no hoi lakou, Owai la ka mea nana mai ia makou? Owai la hoi ka mea ike mai ia makou?
16 This intention of yours is perverse. It is as if the clay were to plan against the potter, or as if the work were to say to its maker: “You did not make me.” Or it is as if what has been formed were to say to the one who formed it, “You do not understand.”
Auwe ko oukou lauwili! E manaoia anei ka lepo me ka mea nana i kawili: E olelo anei ka mea i hanaia i ka mea nana ia i hana, Aole ia i hana mai ia'u? E olelo anei ka mea i kapiliia i ka mea nana ia i kapili, Aole ia i ike?
17 In not more than a little while and a brief time, Lebanon will be turned into a fruitful field, and a fruitful field will be considered to be a forest.
Aole anei he manawa uuku e koe, A lilo o Lebanona i mahinaai hua nui? A lilo hoi ka mahinaai hua nui, i ululaau?
18 And in that day, the deaf will hear the words of a book, and out of darkness and obscurity the eyes of the blind will see.
A ia la, e lohe no ka mea kuli i na huaolelo o ka buke, A mailoko mai o ka pouli, a mailoko mai o ka poeleele, E nana mai ai na maka o ka poe makapo.
19 And the meek will increase their rejoicing in the Lord, and the poor among men will exult in the Holy One of Israel.
E hoomahuahua no ka poe hoohaahaa i ka olioli ia Iehova, A e hauoli hoi ka poe hune o na kanaka i ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
20 For the one who was prevailing has failed, the one who was mocking has been consumed, and all those who were standing guard over iniquity have been cut down.
No ka mea, ua oki loa ka mea oolea, Ua pau hoi ka mea hoowahawaha, Ua lakuia ka poe a pau i makaala i ka hewa:
21 For they caused men to sin by a word, and they supplanted him who argued against them at the gates, and they turned away from justice in vain.
Ka poe i hoohewa mai i ke kanaka no ka olelo hookahi, A hoopahele hoi i ka mea hooponopono ma na pukapa, Aole hoi he kumu no ka lakou hana paewaewa ana i ka poe i pono.
22 Because of this, thus says the Lord, he who has redeemed Abraham, to the house of Jacob: From now on, Jacob will not be confounded; from now on his countenance will not blush with shame.
Nolaila, no ka hale o Iakoba i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Ka mea i hoola ia Aberahama, Aole Iakoba o hilahila hou, Aole e nananakea hou kona maka.
23 Instead, when he sees his children, they will be the work of my hands in his midst, sanctifying my name, and they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and they will preach the God of Israel.
A i kona ike ana i kana mau keiki, i ka hana a kuu lima, E hoolaa no lakou i ko'u inoa iwaenakonu ona, E hoolaa no lakou i ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iakoba, A e makau no hoi i ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
24 And those who had gone astray in spirit will know understanding, and those who had murmured will learn the law.
E naauao auanei ka poe i lalau ma ka naau, E ao no hoi ka poe ku e, a o loaa ia lakou ka ike.
