< Joel 2 >

1 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, and shoute in mine holy mountaine: let all the inhabitants of the lande tremble: for the day of the Lord is come: for it is at hand.
E PUHI oukou i ka pu ma Ziona, A e hookani i ka puwaikana ma kuu mauna hoano: E haalulu na kanaka a pau o ka aina: No ka mea, e hiki mai ana ka la o Iehova, Oia hoi, ua kokoke mai.
2 A day of darkenesse, and of blacknesse, a day of cloudes, and obscuritie, as the morning spred vpon the mountaines, so is there a great people, and a mighty: there was none like it from the beginning, neither shalbe any more after it, vnto the yeeres of many generations.
He la pouli, a me ka popilikia, He la naulu a me ka pouli nui, E like me ka hohola ana o ke kakahiaka maluna o na mauna; He lahuikanaka nui, a me ka ikaika; Aole me keia mai ka wa kahiko mai, Aole hoi e like hou me ia mahope, I na makahiki o na hanauna he nui.
3 A fire deuoureth before him, and behinde him a flame burneth vp: the land is as the garden of Eden before him, and behinde him a desolate wildernesse, so that nothing shall escape him.
E ai ana ke ahi imua ona, A mahope ona, he lapalapa e hoopau ana. Me ka mala o Edena, pela ka aina mamua ona; A mahope ona, me he waoakua la; Aole hoi e pakele kekahi mea ia ia.
4 The beholding of him is like the sight of horses, and like the horsemen, so shall they runne.
Like me ka helehelena lio, pela kona helehelena; A me na hoohololio, pela lakou e holo ai.
5 Like the noyse of charrets in the toppes of the mountaines shall they leape, like the noyse of a flame of fire that deuoureth the stubble, and as a mightie people prepared to the battel.
Like me ka halulu o na halekaa maluna o na piko o na mauna, pela lakou e lele ai, Me ka halulu o ka lapalapa ahi e hoopau ana i ka nahelehele, Like me ka lahuikanaka ikaika i hoomakaukau e kaua aku.
6 Before his face shall the people tremble: all faces shall gather blackenesse.
E haalulu na kanaka imua o lakou: A keokeo na maka a pau i ka makau.
7 They shall runne like strong men, and goe vp to the wall like men of warre, and euery man shall goe forward in his wayes, and they shall not stay in their paths.
E like me na kanaka ikaika e holo lakou: Like me na kanaka kaua e pii lakou i ka pa; E hele kela mea keia mea o lakou ma kona ala, Aole lakou e kapae ae i ko lakou hele ana;
8 Neither shall one thrust another, but euery one shall walke in his path: and when they fall vpon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
Aole kekahi e hooke i kekahi; E hele no kela mea keia mea ma kona ala; A ina e lele aku lakou i ka pahikaua, aole lakou e eha.
9 They shall runne to and from in the citie: they shall runne vpon the wall: they shall clime vp vpon the houses, and enter in at ye windowes like ye thiefe.
E hele lakou i o i o ma ke kulanakauhale, E holo lakou maluna o ka papohaku; E pii lakou maluna a na hale; E komo lakou ma na pukamakani me he aihue la.
10 The earth shall tremble before him, ye heauens shall shake, the sunne and the moone shalbe darke, and the starres shall withdraw their shining,
E naue ka honua imua o lakou; E haalulu na lani; E pouli ka la, a me ka mahina, A e hoonalowale na hoku i ko lakou malamalama.
11 And the Lord shall vtter his voyce before his hoste: for his hoste is very great: for he is strog that doeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible, and who can abide it?
A e hoopuka mai o Iehova i kona leo imua o kona kaua; No ka mea, ua nui loa kona wahi i hoomoana'i; No ka mea, ua ikaika ka mea nana e hooko i kana olelo; No ka mea, ua nui ka la o Iehova, a me ka weliweli nui; A owai la ke hoomanawanui ia mea?
12 Therefore also now the Lord sayth, Turne you vnto me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning,
Ano hoi, wahi a Iehova, E hoi hou mai oukou ia'u me ko oukou naau a pau, A me ka hookeai ana, a me ka uwe ana, a me ke kanikau ana:
13 And rent your heart, and not your clothes: and turne vnto the Lord your God, for he is gratious, and mercifull, slowe to anger, and of great kindnes, and repenteth him of the euill.
A e haehae i ko oukou naau, aole i ko oukou aahu, A e huli hou ae ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua; No ka mea, he lokomaikai, a he aloha kona, Ua lohi mai ka inaina, A he aloha nui kona, A ua hoololi hou ia i ka manao hoopai.
14 Who knoweth, is he wil returne and repent and leaue a blessing behinde him, euen a meate offring, and a drinke offring vnto ye Lord your God?
Malama paha e huli mai ia a e loli i ka manao, A e waiho mahope ona i ka hoomaikai ana; I ka mohai makana, a me ka mohai inu no Iehova ko oukou Akua?
15 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, sanctifie a fast, call a solemne assembly.
E puhi oukou i ka pu ma Ziona, E hoolaa i ka hookeai ana, E kahea aku i ka halawai.
16 Gather the people: sanctifie the congregation, gather the elders: assemble the children, and those that sucke the breastes: let the bridegrome go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her bride chamber.
E hoakoakoa i na kanaka; E hoomaemae i ka ahakanaka; E houluulu i ka poe kahiko; E hoakoakoa i na keiki, a me na mea omo waiu: E hele aku ke kane mare iwaho o kona keena, A me ka wahine mare iwaho o kona keena moe.
17 Let the Priestes, the ministers of the Lord weepe betweene the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and giue not thine heritage into reproche that the heathen should rule ouer them. Wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
Iwaena o ka lanai a me ke kuahu e auwe iho na kahuna, na lawehana a Iehova, A e olelo aku lakou, E ahonui mai, e Iehova, i kou poe kanaka, A mai haawi aku i kou hooilina i ka hoinoia mai, I noho alii ai na lahuikanaka e maluna o lakou: No ke aha la e olelo ae lakou, iwaena o na kanaka, Auhea ko lakou Akua?
18 Then will the Lord be ielous ouer his land, and spare his people.
Alaila, e lili mai o Iehova no kona aina, A e aloha mai i kona poe kanaka.
19 Yea, the Lord wil answere and say vnto his people, Beholde, I will send you corne, and wine, and oyle, and you shalbe satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproche among the heathen,
A e olelo mai o Iehova, a e i mai i kona poe kanaka, Aia hoi, e haawi aku au i ka ai, i ka waina, a me ka aila, a e maona oukou ma ia mea: Aole au e hoolilo hou ia oukou i ka hoinoia iwaena o na lahuikanaka:
20 But I will remooue farre off from you the Northren armie, and I will driue him into a land, barren and desolate with his face toward the East sea, and his end to the vtmost sea, and his stinke shall come vp, and his corruption shall ascend, because he hath exalted himselfe to do this.
A e hookaawale loa aku au, mai o oukou aku, i ke kaua o ke kukulu akau. A hookuke aku ia ia i ka aina maloo, a neoneo; O kona alo ma ke kai hikina, A o kona kua ma ke kai komohana; A e pii ae kona pilau, A e pii ae kona hauna, No ka mea, ua hana hookiekie no ia.
21 Feare not, O land, but be glad, and reioyce: for the Lord wil do great things.
Mai makau oe, e ka aina; E olioli, a e hauoli hoi, No ka mea, e hana mai o Iehova i na mea nui.
22 Be not afrayde, ye beastes of the fielde: for the pastures of the wildernesse are greene: for the tree beareth her fruite: the figge tree and the vine do giue their force.
Mai makau oukou, e na holoholona o ke kula: No ka mea, ke uliuli mai nei ka aina panoa; Ke hua mai nei ka laau i kona hua, Ke hua mai nei ka laau fiku a me ke kumuwaina, me ko lakou ikaika.
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and reioyce in the Lord your God: for he hath giuen you the rayne of righteousnes, he wil cause to come downe for you the rayne, euen the first raine, and the latter raine in the first moneth.
O oukou, e na keiki o Ziona, e olioli, a e hauoli hoi iloko o Iehova ko oukou Akua; No ka mea, ua haawi mai ia no oukou i ke kuaua mua ma ka pono, A e hooua mai no oukou i ka ua, I ke kuaua mua, a i ke kuaua hope, e like mamua.
24 And the barnes shalbe full of wheate, and the presses shall abound with wine and oyle.
A piha na kahua hahi i ka ai, A piha loa na waihona i ka waina hou, a me ka aila.
25 And I will render you the yeeres that the grashopper hath eaten, the canker worme and the caterpiller and the palmer worme, my great hoste which I sent among you.
A e uku au ia oukou no na makahiki o na uhini i ai ai, A ka uhini huluhulu, a me ka uhini hulu ole, a me ka uhini opio hulu ole, Kuu poe kaua nui a'u i hoouna aku ai iwaena o oukou.
26 So you shall eate and be satisfied and praise the Name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt marueilously with you: and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
A e ai oukou i ka ai a maona, A e hoolea aku i ka inoa o Iehova ko oukou Akua, Ka mea i hana kupanaha mai ia oukou; Aole loa e hilahila kuu poe kanaka.
27 Ye shall also know, that I am in the middes of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God and none other, and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
A e ike no oukou, Owau no iwaena o ka Iseraela, A owau no o Iehova ko oukou Akua, aole mea e ae; Aole loa e hilahila kuu poe kanaka.
28 And afterward will I powre out my Spirit vpon all flesh: and your sonnes and your daughters shall prophecie: your olde men shall dreame dreames, and your yong men shall see visions,
A i ka wa mahope, e ninini aku au i kuu Uhane maluna o na kanaka a pau; A e wanana na keikikane a oukou, a me na kaikamahine a oukou, A e moe ko oukou poe elemakule i na moe uhane, E ike ko oukou poe kanaka opio i na hihio:
29 And also vpon the seruants, and vpon the maydes in those dayes wil I powre my Spirit.
A maluna hoi o na kauwakane, A maluna o na kauwawahine i kela mau la, e ninini aku au i kuu Uhane.
30 And I will shewe wonders in the heauens and in the earth: blood and fire, and pillars of smoke.
A e hoike aku au i na mea kupanaha ma ka lani, a ma ka honua; He koko, a me ke ahi, a me na kia ao uahi.
31 The sunne shalbe turned into darkenesse, and the moone into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.
E lilo ka la i pouli, a o ka mahina i koko, mamua o ka hiki ana mai o ia la nui weliweli la o Iehova.
32 But whosoeuer shall call on the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued: for in mount Zion, and in Ierusale shalbe deliuerance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant, whom the Lord shall call.
A o ka mea e kahea aku i ka inoa o Iehova, e hoopakeleia oia: No ka mea, ma ka mauna Ziona, a ma Ierusalema, ka mea hoopakele, e like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai, A mawaena o ka poe i koe a Iehova o kahea aku ai.
