Mika 5

1 A NO, e hoakoakoaia oe, e ke kaikamahine o ka poe hao wale; ua hoopilikiaia kakou; E hahau mai lakou i ka lunakanawai o ka Iseraela me ke kookoo ma ka papalina.

Now shall the daughter [of Sion] be completely hedged in: he has laid siege against us: they shall smite the tribes of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

2 A o oe, Betelehema Eperata, Ka mea uuku iwaena o na tausani o Iuda, Mailoko mai ou e hele mai ai io'u nei, Ka mea e alii ana iloko o ka Iseraela; Mamua mai kona puka ana, mai ka manawa kahiko loa mai.

And thou, Bethleem, house of Ephratha, art few in number to be [reckoned] among the thousands of Juda; [yet] out of thee shall one come forth to me, to be a ruler of Israel; and his goings forth were from the beginning, [even] from eternity.

3 No ia hoi, e hoolilo aku oia ia lakou, a hiki i ka manawa e hanau ai ka mea e hanau ana: Alaila hoi, e hoi hou mai ke koena o kona mau hoahanau i na mamo a Iseraela.

Therefore shall he appoint them [to wait] till the time of her that travails: she shall bring forth, and [then] the remnant of their brethren shall return to the children of Israel.

4 A e ku mai no ia, e hanai ma ka ikaika o Iehova, Ma ka mana o ka inoa o Iehova kona Akua; A e noho iho lakou; no ka mea, ano e nui auanei oia a hiki i na palena o ka honua.

And the Lord shall stand, and see, and feed his flock with power, and they shall dwell in the glory of the name of the Lord their God: for now shall they be magnified to the ends of the earth.

5 A oia ka mea e maluhia'i, I ka manawa e hele mai ai ko Asuria, ma ko kakou aina; A i ka wa e hele ai ia iloko o ko kakou mau halealii, Alaila, e hooku e kakou ia ia i na kahuhipa ehiku, A me na'lii, na kanaka ewalu.

And she shall have peace when Assur shall come into your land, and when he shall come up upon your country; and there shall be raised up against him seven shepherds, and eight attacks of men.

6 A e ai lakou i ka aina o Asuria, me ka pahikaua, A i ka aina o Nimeroda ma kona mau wahi komo; A e hoopakele no ia mai ko Suria mai, I ka wa e komo mai ia iloko o ko kakou aina, A i ka wa e hehi iho ia maloko o ko kakou mau mokuna.

And they shall tend the Assyrian with a sword, and the land of Nebrod with her trench: and he shall deliver [you] from the Assyrian, when he shall come upon your land, and when he shall invade your coasts.

7 A o ke koena o Iakoba iwaena o na lahuikanaka he nui, E like ia me ka hau mai o Iehova mai, Me ka ua maluna o ka weuweu, Ka mea kali ole no ke kanaka, Aohe hoi e hookaulua no ke keiki a ke kanaka.

And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many peoples, as dew falling from the Lord, and as lambs on the grass; that none may assemble nor resist among the sons of men.

8 A lilo ke koena o Iakoba iwaena o ko na aina e, Iwaena o na lahuikanaka he nui, e like me ka liona iwaena o na holoholona o ka ululaau, E like me ka liona opio iwaena o ka ohana hipa; No ka mea, i kona hele ana'e, hehi iho ilalo, a e haehae wale, aohe mea nana e hoopakele.

And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many nations, as a lion in the forest among cattle, and as a [lion's] whelp among the flocks of sheep, even as when he goes through, and selects, and carries off [his prey], and there is none to deliver.

9 E hookiekieia kou lima maluna o kou poe ku e mai, A e hookiia'ku kou poe enemi a pau.

Thine hand shall be lifted up against them that afflict thee, and all thine enemies shall be utterly destroyed.

10 A i kela manawa, wahi a Iehova, E oki aku au i kou poe lio mai waena mai ou, A e luku aku au i kou poe halekaa:

And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, [that] I will utterly destroy the horses out of the midst of thee, and destroy thy chariots;

11 A e oki aku au i na kulanakauhale e kou aina, A e hoohiolo au i kou mau wahi paa a pau:

and I will utterly destroy the cities of thy land, and demolish all thy strong-holds:

12 A e oki aku i ka poe anaana mai kou lima aku, Aole oe e malama hou i na kupua.

and I will utterly destroy thy sorceries out of thine hands; and there shall be no soothsayers in thee.

13 A e oki aku au i kou mau kii kalaiia, A i kou mau kii mai waena mai ou, Aole hoi oe e hoomana hou aku i ka hana a kou mau lima.

And I will utterly destroy thy graven images, and thy statues out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt never any more worship the works of thine hands.

14 A e hookuke aku au i kou mau kii akua mai waena mai ou, A e luku aku au i kou mau kulanakauhale.

And I will cut off the groves out of the midst of thee, and I will abolish thy cities.

15 A e hoopai aku au me ka huhu a me ka inaina i na lahuikanaka, Ka mea a lakou i lohe ole ai.

and I will execute vengeance on the heathen in anger and wrath, because they hearkened not.
