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 said Jehovah, To His anointed, to Cyrus, Whose right hand I have laid hold on, To subdue nations before him, Yea, loins of kings I loose, To open before him two-leaved doors, Yea, gates are not 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 go before thee, and crooked places make straight, Two-leaved doors of brass I shiver, And bars of iron I cut asunder,
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.
And have given to thee treasures of darkness, Even treasures of secret places, So that thou knowest that I, Jehovah, Who am calling on thy name — [am] 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 my servant Jacob, And of Israel My chosen, I call also thee by thy name, I surname thee, And 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 there is none else, Except Me there is no God, I gird thee, and 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.
So that they know from the rising of the sun, And from the west, that there is none besides Me, I [am] Jehovah, and there is 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.
Forming light, and preparing darkness, Making peace, and preparing evil, I [am] Jehovah, doing 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.
Drop, ye heavens, from above, And clouds do cause righteousness to flow, Earth openeth, and they are fruitful, Salvation and righteousness spring up together, I, Jehovah, have prepared 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 who is striving with his Former, (A potsherd with potsherds of the ground!) Doth clay say to its Framer, 'What dost thou?' And thy work, '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 who is saying to a father, 'What dost thou beget?' Or to a wife, 'What 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 said Jehovah, The Holy One of Israel, and his Former: Ask Me of the things coming concerning My sons, Yea, concerning the work of My hands, ye command 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 earth, and man on it prepared, I — My hands stretched out the heavens, And all their host I have commanded.
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 stirred him up in righteousness, And all his ways I make straight, He doth build My city, and My captivity doth send out, Not for price, nor for bribe, said 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 said Jehovah, 'The labour of Egypt, And the merchandise of Cush, And of the Sebaim — men of measure, Unto thee pass over, and thine they are, After thee they go, in fetters they pass over, And unto thee they bow themselves, Unto thee they pray: Only in thee [is] God, And there is none else, 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.
Surely Thou [art] a God hiding Thyself, God of Israel — Saviour!
16 Ua hilahila, a ua hoopalaimaka lakou a pau; Holo pu no iloko o ka hilahila, ka poe hana akuakii.
They have been ashamed, And they have even blushed — all of them, Together gone in confusion have those carving images.
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.
Israel hath been saved in Jehovah, A salvation age-during! Ye are not ashamed nor confounded Unto the ages of eternity!
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 said Jehovah, Creator of heaven, He is God, Former of earth, and its Maker, He established it — not empty He prepared it, For inhabiting He formed it: 'I [am] Jehovah, and there is 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.
Not in secret have I spoken, in a dark place of the earth, I have not said to the seed of Jacob, In vain seek ye Me, I [am] Jehovah, speaking righteousness, Declaring uprightness.
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.
Be gathered, and come in, Come nigh together, ye escaped of the nations, They have not known, Who are lifting up the wood of their graven image, And praying unto a god [that] saveth not.
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.
Declare ye, and bring near, Yea, they take counsel together, Who hath proclaimed this from of old? From that time hath declared it? Is it not I — Jehovah? And there is no other god besides Me, A God righteous and saving, there is none save 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.
Turn to Me, and be saved, all 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 I have sworn, Gone out from my mouth in righteousness hath a word, And it turneth not back, That to Me, bow doth every knee, every tongue 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, said hath one, Have I righteousness and strength, Unto Him he cometh in, And ashamed are all those displeased with Him.
25 Maloko o Iehova e hoaponoia'i na pua a pau o ka Iseraela, A malaila hoi e hoonani ai.
In Jehovah are all the seed of Israel justified, And they boast themselves.'
