Isaiah 64

1 Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence,

I NA oe e wahi i na lani, a iho hoi ilalo, I hehee na mauna imua o kou alo,

2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil; to make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence.

E like me ke ahi i hoa i ka laau liilii, A me ke ahi i hoolapalapa ai i ka wai, I mea e hookaulana'i i kou inoa iwaena o kou poe enemi, I haalulu hoi na lahuikanaka imua o kou alo!

3 When you did awesome things which we did not look for, you came down, the mountains quaked at your presence.

Me kau i hana'i i na mea weliweli a makou i manao ole ai, No ka mea, iho mai no oe, i hehee na mauna imua o kou alo.

4 Since ancient times no one has heard, and no ear has perceived, and no eye has seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.

Mai ka wa kahiko loa mai, aole i lohe lakou, aole i komo i ka pepeiao, Aole hoi i ike aku ka maka i ke Akua e ae, ke kaawale oe, I hana pela i ka mea kakali ia ia.

5 You meet him who rejoices and works righteousness, those who remember you in your ways. Look, you were angry, and we sinned. We have been in sin for a long time; and shall we be saved?

Ua kuikahi no oe me ka mea olioli i ka hana i ka pono, Ka mea e hoomanao ia oe ma kou mau aoao; Aia hoi, ua huhu mai no oe, no ka mea, ua hana hewa makou; Maloko o kela mau mea, ua oia mau no, A e hoolaia no hoi makou.

6 For we have all become as one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is as a polluted garment: and we all fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

Aka, ua like no makou a pau me ka mea haumia, Ua like hoi ko makou pono a pau me ke kapa pea; A mae wale no hoi makou a pau, e like me ka lau; A ua kaikai aku no ko makou hewa ia makou, e like me ka makani.

7 There is none who calls on your name, who stirs up himself to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.

Aohe mea i hea aku i kou inoa, A hoala ia ia iho e hooikaika aku ma ou la; No ka mea, ua huna oe i kou maka, mai o makou aku, A ua hoomaule hoi ia makou no ko makou mau hewa.

8 But now, LORD, you are our Father, and we are clay, and you are our potter; and we all are the work of your hands.

Ano la, o oe, e Iehova, ko makou Makua, O makou no ka lepo, o oe ko makou potera; A o makou no a pau ka hana a kou lima.

9 Do not be furious, LORD, neither remember iniquity forever: see, look, we beg you, we are all your people.

Mai ukiuki nui mai oe, e Iehova, Mai hoomanao mau loa hoi i ka hewa: Aia hoi, ke nonoi aku nei makou ia oe, e nana mai, O makou no a pau kou poe kanaka.

10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become like a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

Ua lilo no kou mau kulanakauhale laa i waonahele, He waonahele o Ziona, He wahi neoneo o Ierusalema.

11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant places are laid waste.

O ko makou hale laa, a nani hoi, Kahi a ko makou poe makua i hoonani ai ia oe, Ua pau ia i ke ahi; A ua anaiia hoi ko makou mau mea maikai a pau.

12 Will you refrain yourself for these things, LORD? Will you hold your peace, and afflict us very severely?

E uumi anei oe ia oe no keia mau mea, e Iehova? E noho ekemu ole anei oe, a e hoopilikia loa mai ia makou?
