Isaia 10
1 A UWE ka poe kau i na kanawai hewa, A me ka poe kakauolelo, i kakau i na mea kekee;
Woe unto those that decree decrees of unrighteousness, and the writers who write down wrongful things;
2 I kipaku i ka poe kaumaha, mai ka hooponoia'ku, A kaili aku hoi i ka pono o ko'u poe kanaka poino, I pio ia lakou na wahinekanemake, A hao wale hoi i na keiki makua ole!
To turn aside from judgment the needy, and to rob the just due of the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and [that] they may plunder the fatherless!
3 Pehea la oukou e hana'i i ka la o ka hoopui ana, Ke hiki mai ka make mai kahi loihi mai? Ia wai oukou e holo ai no ke kokuaia mai? Mahea oukou e waiho ai i ko oukou waiwai?
And what will ye do on the day of the visitation, and at the desolation which will come from afar? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?
4 I haaleleia e au, e kulou no lakou malalo me na mea pio, A e hina hoi malalo me na mea i lukuia. Aole nae i huli aku kona huhu no keia mau mea a pau, Aka, ke o mai nei no kona lima i keia manawa.
Without me they shall kneel down under the prisoners, and under the slain shall they fall. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand still remaineth stretched out.
5 Auwe ko Asuria! ka laau hahau o kuu ukiuki, A o ua laau hahau la, aia no ia ma ko lakou lima, Oia hoi kuu inaina.
Woe over Asshur, the rod of my anger; and a staff is in their hand my indignation.
6 E hoouna aku au ia ia, e ku e i ka lahuikanaka aia, E kauoha aku no wau ia ia, E ku e i ka poe kanaka a'u i huhu ai; E hao aku i ka waiwaipio, a e lawe aku hoi i ka mea i paa; A e hahi ia lakou ilalo, e like me ka lepo o ke alanui.
Against a hypocritical nation will I send him, and against the people of my fury will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to carry off the prey, and to render them trodden down like the mire of the streets.
7 Aole pela kona manao, Aole i noonoo kona naau pela; O ka luku no ka mea iloko o kona naau, A e anai aku i na aina he nui loa.
But he deemeth it not so, and his heart doth not think so; but to destroy is in his heart, and to cut off nations not a few.
8 I mai la ia, aole anei he poe alii nui ko'u poe alii?
For he saith, “Are not my princes altogether kings?
9 Aole anei i like o Kaleno me Karekemisa? A o Hamata hoi me Arepada? A o Samaria me Damaseko?
Is not Calno like Karkemish? is not Chamath like Arpad? is not Samaria like Damascus?
10 E like me ka loaa i kuu lima na aupuni o na'kua kii, Ua oi aku ko lakou akua kii mamua o ko Ierusalema, A mamua hoi o ko Samaria;
As my hand hath reached the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images exceeded in number those of Jerusalem and of Samaria:
11 Me au i hana aku ai ia Samaria a me kona poe akua kii, Aole anei au e hana pela ia Ierusalema a me kona mau akua?
Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, do so unto Jerusalem and unto her idols?”
12 A hiki aku i ka wa, e hooki ai ka Haku i kana hana a pau, Maluna o ka mauna o Ziona, a me Ierusalema, Alaila wau e hoopai aku ai i ka hua o ka naau kiekie o ke alii o Asuria, A me ka hookano ana o kona maka hookiekie.
Wherefore shall it come to pass, that when the Lord hath completed all his work on mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the haughtiness of the king of Asshur, and the vain-glory of his proud looks.
13 No ka mea, ua olelo mai ia, Ua hana au i keia, i ka ikaika o ko'u lima iho, A i kuu akamai hoi, no ka mea, ua maalea au. Na'u no i hooneenee i na mokuna o na aina, A ua hao aku au i ko lakou waiwai, A e like hoi me ke kanaka koa, ua hoohaahaa wau i ka poe e noho ana.
For he hath said, “By the strength of my hand have I done it, and by my wisdom, for I have intelligence; and I have removed the boundaries of nations, and their laid-up treasures have I plundered, and brought down low those that were powerfully seated.
14 Me he punana la i loaa'i i kuu lima ka waiwai o na lakuikanaka; A e like me ka hoiliili ana o na hua manu i haaleleia, Pela no wau i hoiliili ai i ko na aina a pau; Aohe mea i upoi ka eheu, Aohe mea i hamama ka waha a ioio.
And my hand hath reached, as a bird's nest, the wealth of the people: and as one gathereth up eggs that are forsaken, have I myself gathered up all the earth: and there was not one that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or chirped.”
15 E hookiekie anei ke koilipi maluna o ka mea nana e kalai me ia? E haanui anei ka pahiolo maluna o ka mea nana ia e oloolo? Me he laau la i wiliwili i kona mea nana e hapai, E like me ke kookoo hoi i hoala ia ia iho me he mea laau ole la.
Shall the axe boast itself over him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that swingeth it? as if the rod should swing about those that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up him who is no wood.
16 Nolaila e hoouna mai ai ka Haku, ka Haku o na kaua, I ka wiwi maluna o kona poe puipui; A malalo iho o kona nani e puhi ai oia i ka mea aa, E like me ke aa ana o ke ahi.
Therefore will the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, send forth among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory shall be kindled a burning like the burning of a fire.
17 E lilo no ka malamalama o Iseraela i ahi, A o kona Mea Hemolele hoi i lapalapa ahi; A e puhi no ia, a e hoopau ma ka la hookahi, I kona nahele ooi, a me kona laau kalakala.
And the light of Israel shall become a fire, and his Holy One a flame; and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers on one day.
18 E hoopau loa no ia i ka nani o kona ululaau, A me ka mahinaai hua nui, mai ka uhane a ke kino; A e like auanei ia me ka mea mai hokii loa.
And the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body, will he destroy: and he shall be as [a tree] eaten to powder by the worms.
19 E uuku ana no ke koena o kona ululaau, E hiki no i ke keiki uuku ke palapala ia lakou.
And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few in number, so that a boy may write them down.
20 A hiki aku i kela la, O ke koena o ka Iseraela, O ka poe hoi i pakele o ka ohana a Iakoba, Aole lakou e hilinai hou maluna o ka mea nana lakou i pepehi; Aka, e hilinai io no maluna o Iehova, A maluna hoi o ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall not farther lean for support upon him that smiteth them; but they shall lean upon the Lord, the Holy one of Israel, in truth.
21 He koena no ke hoi mai, he koena no Iakoba, I ke Akua mana loa.
The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
22 Ina paha i like kou poe kanaka o Iseraela, Me ke one o ke kai, He koena wale no o lakou ke hoi mai; Ua holo ka olelo no ka hoopau ana, E hiki wawe mai ia, me ka pololei hoi.
For though thy people Israel should be as the sand of the sea, [yet] a remnant [only] of them shall return: destruction is decreed, it overfloweth with righteousness.
23 He oiaio no, ua holo ka olelo no ka hoopau ana, A na ka Haku no, na Iehova o na kaua e hana mai, Mawaena konu o ka aina a pau.
For it is completed and decreed: the Lord, the Eternal of hosts will do it in the midst of all the land.
24 Nolaila i olelo mai ai ka Haku, o Iehova o na kaua, peneia, E ko'u poe kanaka e noho la ma Ziona, Mai makau oukou i ko Asuria; E hahau mai no lakou me ka laau hahau, A e hapai no hoi i ke kookoo maluna ou, E like me ka hana ana o Aigupita.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord the Eternal of hosts, Be not afraid, O my people that dwellest in Zion, of Asshur, who will smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
25 Aka, he wahi manawa uuku no e koe, Alaila, e kaa no kuu inaina, a me ko'u ukiuki hoi. Ma ke anaiia'ku o lakou.
For yet but a very little while more, and the indignation shall cease, and my anger shall be for their destruction.
26 Na Iehova o na kaua e hapai i laau hahau maluna o lakou, E like me ka hahau ana i ko Midiana ma ka pohaka o Oreba: A me ka laau ana i hapai ai maluna o ke kai, E hapai no oia ia e like me kana hana ana i ko Aigupita.
And the Lord shall lift up a scourge over him like [at] the smiting of Midian at the rock of 'Oreb: and as his staff was lifted over the sea, so will he carry him off after the manner of Egypt.
27 A hiki mai ia la, E laweia'ka kona mea kanmaha, mai koa poohiwi ako, A me kona auamo maluna ako o kou a-i, E hakiia auanei imua o ka mea puipui
And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be removed from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be broken because of the fatness.
28 Ua hele mai ia i Aiata, ua hala loa aku i Migerona, Ua waiho no i kana ukana ma Mikemasa:
He cometh to 'Ayath, he passeth on to Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage;
29 Ua hele mai lakou ma keia aoao o ke ahua; Aia ma Geba ko lakou wahi moe i ka po: Ua makau ko Rama; ua holo ko Gibea Saula.
They go through the pass; they take up their lodging at Geba'; Ramah trembleth; Gib'ah of Saul fleeth.
30 E hookiekie i koa leo, e ke kaikamahine a Galima; E hoolohe oe, e Laisa; Auwe Anatota poino!
Let thy voice resound, O daughter of Gallim; listen Layshah; O poor 'Anathoth!
31 Ua holo o Mademena: Ua hee ka poe i noho ma Gebima.
Madmenah is in motion; the inhabitants of Gebim are assembled to flee.
32 Hookahi no la e koe o kona noho ana ma Noba, A e lulu ia i kona lima e ku e i ka mauna o ke kaikamahine o Ziona, I ka puu hoi o Ierusalema.
As yet today will he remain at Nob: then will he swing his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Aia hoi, na ka Haku, na Iehova o na kaua, E okioki i na lala me ka weliweli, A e kuaia ilalo na mea kiekie loa, A e hoohaahaaia na mea hookano.
Behold, the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, will lop off the fruitful bough with terrific might: and those of towering growth shall be hewn down, and the high shall be laid low.
34 E kuaia ilalo me ka hao i na ululaau paapu, A e haule hoi o Lebanona imua o ka mea mana.
And he will cut down the thickets of the forests with iron, and the Lebanon shall fall by [means of] a mighty one.
