< Isaia 45 >

1 PENEI o Iehova i olelo mai ai no kona mea i poniia, No Kuro, nona ka lima akau a'u i hooikaika ai, E hoopio i na lahuikanaka imua ona; A e kala no hoi au i ko na puhaka o na'lii, I hamama na puka imua ona, Aole hoi e paniia na pukapa.
Thus saith Jehovah to his anointed, To Cyrus, whom I hold by his right hand, To subdue nations before him, And ungird the loins of kings; To open before him the two-leaved gates, And the doors shall not be shut.
2 E hele no wau imua ou, a e hoolaumania i na wahi apuupuu, E wawahi no au i na pani puka keleawe, A e uhaki ia'u na kaola hao.
I will go before thee, And make the high places plain; I will break in pieces the gates of brass, And cut in sunder the bars of iron.
3 E haawi aku no au ia oe i ka waiwai o ka pouli, A me ka ukana i hunaia ma kahi nalowale, I ike ai oe, owau no Iehova, ka mea i hea aku ia oe ma ka inoa, Ke Akua hoi o ka Iseraela.
I will give thee the treasures of darkness, And hidden riches of secret places, That thou mayst know that I am Jehovah Who calleth thee by name, the God of Israel.
4 No ka'u kauwa, no Iakoba, No ka Iseraela hoi, ka mea a'u i wae ai, Ua hea aku no au ia oe; Ma kou inoa ua hea aku au ia oe, Aole nae oe i ike mai ia'u.
For the sake of Jacob, my servant, And Israel, my chosen, I have called thee by thy name; I have spoken to thee as a friend, though thou hast not known me.
5 Owau no Iehova, aohe mea e ae, Aohe Akua e ae, ke kaawale au; Na'u no e kaei aku ia oe, aole nae oe i ike mai ia'u;
I am Jehovah, and none else; There is no God besides me; I have girded thee, though thou hast not known me.
6 I ike lakou, mai ka puka ana a ka la mai, A mai ke komohana mai hoi, Aohe mea e ae, ke kaawale au; Owau no o Iehova, aohe mea e ae.
That men may know from the rising of the sun, And from the West, that there is none besides me; I am Jehovah, and none else.
7 Ka mea nana i hana ka malamalama, A nana hoi i hana ka pouli, Nana i hana ka pomaikai, Nana hoi i hana ka poino, Owau no Iehova, ka mea nana e hana keia mau mea a pau.
I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I, Jehovah, do all these things.
8 E hoonakulukulu oukou, e na lani, mai luna mai, E hanini hoi na aouli i ka pono; E hamama hoi ka honua, a e hua mai i ke ola, E ulu pu mai no me ka pono; Na'u, na Iehova ia i hana.
Pour forth, ye heavens, from above; Ye clouds, shower down prosperity! Let the earth open, and bring forth salvation; Yea, let righteousness spring up together! I, Jehovah, create it.
9 Auwe ke kanaka paio aku i kona mea nana ia i hana? Na mea lepo me na mea lepo o ka honua! E olelo anei ka lepokiaha, i ka mea nana ia e hooponopono, Heaha kau e hana nei? A o ka mea au i hana'i, Aole ona lima?
Woe to him that contendeth with his Maker! A potsherd of the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? Or thy work say of thee, He hath no hands?
10 Auwe ka mea olelo i ka makuakane, Heaha kau e hoohanau ai? A i ka makuwahine hoi, Ua hanau oe i ke aha?
Woe to him that saith to his father, Why dost thou beget? Or to his mother, Why dost thou bring forth?
11 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela, penei, O ka Mea hoi nana ia i hana, E ninau mai oukou ia'u i na mea e hiki mai ana no ka'u mau keiki, A e kauoha mai oukou ia'u ma ka hana a kuu mau lima.
Thus saith Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask of me concerning things to come; My children, the work of my hands, leave them to me!
12 Na'u no i hana ka honua nei, A hana no hoi au i na kanaka maluna iho; Na kuu mau lima no i hohola aku i na lani, A na'u hoi i kauoha aku i ko lakou lehulehu a pau.
I made the earth, And created man upon it; My hands spread out the heavens, And all their host did I arrange.
13 Ua hoala no au ia ia, no ka pono, Na'u no e hoopololei i kona mau aoao, Nana no e hana i ko'u kulanakauhale, A nana no e hookuu aku i ko'u poe pio; Aole no ka uku, a me ka waiwai kipe, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
I have raised him up for salvation, And I will make all his ways plain; He shall build my city, and release my captives, Not for price, and not for ransom, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
14 Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, E hele mai no ianei, iou la, Ka waiwai o Aigupita, a me ka mea kuai o Aitiopa, A me ko Seba, ka poe kanaka nunui, a e lilo lakou nou. E hahai no lakou ia oe; me ka paa ana i na kaula hao lakou e hele mai ai, A e moe no lakou ilalo imua ou, E nonoi aku no lakou ia oe, me ka olelo iho, He oiaio no, me oe no ke Akua, aohe Akua e ae.
Thus saith Jehovah: The wealth of Egypt and the merchandise of the Ethiopians and Sabeans, men of stature, Shall come over to thee, and be thine; They shall follow thee; in chains shall they pass along; They shall fall down to thee, and make supplication to thee: “In thee alone is God, and there is none else; There is no other God.”
15 He oiaio no, o ke Akua no oe nana i huna ia oe iho, E ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea e ola'i.
Truly thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the saviour!
16 Ua hilahila, a ua hoopalaimaka lakou a pau; Holo pu no iloko o ka hilahila, ka poe hana akuakii.
They shall all be ashamed and confounded, They shall go to confusion together, That are makers of idols.
17 E hoolaia no o ka Iseraela maloko o Iehova, me ke ola mau loa; Aole oukou e hilahila, aole hoi e hoopalaimaka, ia ao aku, ia ao aku.
But Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation; Ye shall never be ashamed, nor confounded.
18 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, Ka mea nana i hana na lani; Oia ke Akua, ka mea nana i hana ka honua, a kukulu hoi, Ka mea nana ia i hoopaa, aole hoi ia i hana makehewa ia mea, Hana no oia ia i wahi e nohoia'i; Owau no Iehova, aohe mea e ae,
For thus saith Jehovah, who created the heavens; The God that formed the earth and made it; he that made it firm; He created it not in vain; he formed it to be inhabited: I am Jehovah, and none else.
19 Aole au i olelo ma kahi malu, ma kahi pouli o ka honua; Aole au i olelo aku i na pua a Iakoba, E imi makehewa oukou ia'u. Owau o Iehova, ka mea e olelo ana ma ka pono, Ka mea e hai. aku ana i na mea pololei.
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth; I have not said to the race of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain! I, Jehovah, speak truth; I declare that which is right.
20 E hoakoakoa oukou, a hele mai, E houluulu pu oukou, e ka poe i pakele o na aina. He poe ike ole ka poe kukulu i ka laau o ko lakou akua kalaiia, A pule aku i ke akua hiki ole ke hoola.
Assemble yourselves and come; Gather yourselves together, ye that are escaped of the nations! They are without understanding, who carry about with them the wood of their graven image, And pray to a god that cannot save.
21 E hai aku, e lawe mai hoi ia lakou; Oia, e kukakuka pa lakou. Nawai i hai i keia, mai kahiko mai, A hoikeike hoi ia, mai kela wa mai? Aole anei owau. o Iehova? Aole hoi he Akua e ae, ke Kaawale au; O ke Akua pono, ka mea e ola'i, aohe mea e ae.
Proclaim ye, and bring them near, And let them take counsel together: Who hath made this known from ancient time? Who hath declared it of old? Is it not I, Jehovah, besides whom there is no God? A God that uttereth truth, and giveth salvation; there is none besides me.
22 E haliu mai oukou ia'u a e hoolaia no oukou, E na kukulu o ka honua; No ka mea, owau no ke Akua, aohe mea e ae.
Look to me, and be saved, all ye ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is none else.
23 Ua hoohiki au ia'u iho, Ua puka aku hoi ka olelo, mai ko'u waha aku ma ka pono, Aole ia i hoi hou, no ka mea, la'u no e kukuli ai na kuli a pau, a e hoohiki no hoi na elelo a pau.
By myself have I sworn, The truth hath gone from my mouth, The word, that shall not return, That to me every knee shall bow, That to me every tongue shall swear.
24 He oiaio, e olelo mai ia'u, maloko o Iehova na mea pono, a me ka ikaika, Ia ia no lakou e hele mai ai; A e hilahila auanei ka poe a pau i inaina aku ia ia.
“Only in Jehovah,” shall men say, “Is salvation and strength; To him shall come and be put to shame, All that are incensed against him.”
25 Maloko o Iehova e hoaponoia'i na pua a pau o ka Iseraela, A malaila hoi e hoonani ai.
Through Jehovah shall all the race of Israel be delivered, And in him shall they glory.
