< Revelation 18 >

1 After this I saw another angel, descending from heaven, invested with great authority; and the earth was illuminated by his splendour.
MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea, ike aku au i ka anela hou e iho ana mai ka lani mai, me ka mana nui: ua hoomalamalamaia ka honua ma kona nani.
2 With a mighty voice he cried – ‘She has fallen! She has fallen – Babylon the Great! She has become an abode of demons, a stronghold of every wicked spirit, a stronghold of every foul and hateful bird.
Hea mai la ia me ka leo nui, i mai la, Ua haule, ua haule o Babulona, ka mea nui, a ua lilo ia i wahi noho ai no na daimonio, a i wahi paa no na uhane haukae a pau, a i hale e paa ai na manu haumia a hoopailua a pau.
3 For, after drinking the maddening wine of her licentiousness, all the nations have fallen; while all the kings of the earth have had licentious intercourse with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich through the excess of her luxury.’
No ka mea, ua inu no ko na aina a pau i ka waina o ka ukiuki o kona moe kolohe ana, a ua moe kolohe pu me ia na'lii o ka honua nei, a ua waiwai loa ka poe kalepa o ka honua, no ka nui loa o kona noho lealea ana.
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying – ‘Come out of her, my people, so that you may not participate in her sins, and that you may not suffer from the curses inflicted on her.
A lohe hou aku la au i kekahi leo, mai ka lani mai, e olelo ana, E ko'u poe kanaka, e hele mai oukou mawaho ona, i ole oukou e lilo i mau hoalawe pu i kona hewa, a i loaa ole ia oukou kona mau pilikia.
5 For her sins are heaped up to the heavens, and God has not forgotten her misdeeds.
No ka mea, ua hoopili aku kona hewa i ka lani, a ua hoomanao ke Akua i kona mau hala.
6 Pay her back the treatment with which she has treated you; yes, repay twice over what her actions deserve; in the cup which she mixed for you, mix for her as much again;
E haawi aku nana, e like me kana i haawi mai ai, e hoopapalua hoi ia me na mea a pau ana i hana mai ai; me ke kiaha ana i ukuhi mai ai, malaila e ukuhi papalua aku ai nana.
7 for her self-glorification and her luxury, give her now an equal measure of torture and misery. In her heart she says “I sit here a queen; no widow am I; I will never know misery.”
E like me ka nui o kona hoonani ana ia ia iho, a me kona noho ana ma ka lealea nui, pela e haawi aku ai ia ia i ka eha a me ka uwe ana: no ka mea, ua olelo oia iloko o kona naau, Ke noho nei au he aliiwahine, aole au he wahinekanemake, aole hoi au e ike i ka uwe ana.
8 Therefore in one day will these curses strike her – death, misery, and famine, and she will be utterly consumed by fire; for mighty is the Lord God who condemned her.’
Nolaila, i ka la hookahi e hiki mai ai kona mau ino, o ka make, a me ke kanikau, a me ka wi: a e puhi loa ia no hoi ia i ke ahi; no ka mea, ua ikaika loa ka Haku, ke Akua ka mea e hoopai ana ia ia.
9 All the kings of the earth who had licentious intercourse with her and shared her luxury will weep and lament over her, when they see the smoke from the burning city,
A o na'lii o ka honua, ka poe i moe kolohe me ia, a i noho pu me ka pakela lealea, e uwe lakou a e kanikau ia ia, i ka wa a lakou e ike aku ai i ka uahi o kona aa ana;
10 while they stand at a distance, horrified at her torture, and cry – ‘Alas! Alas! Great city! Mighty city of Babylon! In a single hour your judgment fell.’
E ku no lakou ma kahi loihi e aku no ka makau i kona eha, me ka olelo iho, Auwe, auwe, o kela kulanakauhale nui, o Babulona, ke kulanakauhale ikaika! no ka mea, i ka hora hookahi, ua hiki mai kou hoopai ana.
11 And the merchants of the earth weep and wail over her, because no longer does anyone buy their cargoes –
A e uwe no hoi ka poe kalepa o ka honua, a e kanikau ia ia; no ka mea, aole e kuai hou aku kekahi i ko lakou waiwai.
12 their cargoes of gold, or silver, or precious stones, or pearls, or fine linen, or purple robes, or silk, or scarlet cloth; nor their many scented woods; nor their many articles of ivory; nor their many articles of choicest wood, or brass, or iron, or marble;
O ka waiwai, o ke gula, a me ke kala, a me na pohaku maikai, a me na momi, a me ka palule makalii, a me ka lole makue, a me ka lole pahee a me ka ula, a me na laau ala a pau, a me na ipu nihoelepane a pau, a me na ipu laau maikai a pau, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me ka pohaku keokeo,
13 nor their cinnamon, or spice, or incense, or perfumes, or frankincense, or wine, or oil, or fine flour, or wheat, or cattle, or sheep; nor their horses, or chariots, or slaves; nor the bodies and souls of people.
A me ke kinamona, a me na mea ala, a me ka mura, a me ka libano, a me ka waina, a me ka aila, a me ka palaoa aiai, a me ka hua palaoa, a me na holoholona, a me na hipa, a me na lio, a me na halekaa, a me na kino, a me na uhaue o kanaka.
14 The fruit that your soul craved is no longer within your reach, and all dainties and luxuries are lost to you, never to be found again.
A o na hua a kou naau i kuko ai, ua lilo ia mai ou aku, a ua lilo no hoi na mea momona a pau, a me na mea hanohano, aole loa e loaa ia oe ua mau mea la.
15 The merchants who sold these things, and grew rich by her, will stand at a distance weeping and wailing, horrified at her torture, and crying –
O ka poe i kuai ia mau mea, a loaa ko lakou waiwai malaila, e ku loihi e aku lakou no ka makau i kona eha, a e uwe no hoi lakou me ke kanikau;
16 ‘Alas! Alas! Great city! City clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet cloth! City adorned with gold ornaments, and precious stones, and pearls!
A e olelo mai hoi, Auwe, auwe, kela kulanakauhale nui, i aahuia i ka ie nani, a me ka lole makue, a me ka lole pahee, a i hoonaniia i ke gula, a me ka pohaku maikai, a me na momi!
17 In a single hour your vast wealth vanished.’ Every ship’s captain and all who sail to any port, and sailors, and all who get their living from the sea, stood at a distance,
No ka mea, i ka hora hookahi, ua lilo keia waiwai nui, i mea ole. A o na alii moku a pau, a me na mea a pau ma na moku, a me na luina, a me ka poe a pau i kalepa ma ka moana, ku aku la lakou ma kahi loihi e aku;
18 and seeing the smoke from the burning city, cried – ‘What city can compare with the Great city?’
A ike lakou i ka uahi o kona aa ana, hea aku la lakou, i aku la, Heaha ka mea like me keia kulanakauhale nui!
19 They threw dust on their heads, and, as they wept and wailed, they cried – ‘Alas! Alas! Great city! All who have ships on the sea grew rich through her magnificence. In a single hour it has vanished.’
A hoolei lakou i ka lepo maluna iho o ko lakou poo, a hea aku la me ka uwe a me ke kanikau, i aku la, Auwe, auwe, o ke kulanakauhale nui, kahi i waiwai ai ka poe mea moku a pau loa ma ka moana, no kona pakela maikai! no ka mea, i ka hora hookahi, ua hooliloia oia i mea ole.
20 Rejoice over her, heaven, and people of Christ, and apostles, and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!
E ka lani, e hauoli oe maluna ona, o oukou hoi, e ka poe lunaolelo hemolele, a me na kaula, no ka mea, ua hoohewa ke Akua ia ia no oukou.
21 Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and threw it into the sea, crying – ‘So will Babylon, the great city, be violently overthrown, never more to be seen.
Lawe iho la kekahi anela ikaika i ka pohaku, me he pohaku kaapalaoa nui la, a kiola aku la i ke kai, i aku la, Pela e kiola ikaika ia'ku ai o Babulona, ke kulanakauhale nui, aole hoi e loaa hou aku.
22 No more will the music of harpers, or minstrels, or flute players, or trumpeters be heard in you, no more will any worker, skilled in any art, be found in you; no more will the sound of a mill be heard in you;
Aole hoi e lohe hou ia maloko ou ka leo o ka poe hookanikani, a me ka poe himeni, a me ka poe hokiokio a me ka poe puhi pu; aole hoi e loaa hou aku maloko ou kekahi kahuna o kekahi hana; aole no hoi e lohe hou ia iloko ou ka halulu ana o ka pohaku kaapalaoa;
23 no more will the light of a lamp shine in you; no more will the voices of groom and bride be heard in you. Your merchants were the great men of the earth, for all the nations were deceived by your magical charms.’
Aole e ike hou ia iloko ou ka malamalama o ke kukui; aole e lohe hou ia iloko ou ka leo o ke kane mare a me ka wahine mare; no ka mea, o kou poe kalepa, he poe hanohano lakou o ka honua; no ka mea, ua puni wale ko na aina a pau i kou kilokilo ana.
24 Yes, and in her was to be found the blood of the prophets and of Christ’s people, and of all who have been put to death on the earth.
Maloko ona i loaa'i ke koko o na kaula, a me ka poe haipule, a me na mea a pau i pepehiia ma ka honua nei.
