1Woe to the land of whirring wings, along the rivers of Cush,
1A UWE ka aina eheu kani, Ka mea ma kela aoao o na kahawai o Aitiopa:
2which sends couriers by sea, in papyrus vessels on the waters. Go, swift messengers, to a people tall and smooth-skinned, to a people widely feared, to a powerful nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers.
2Ka mea i hoouna i na elele ma ke kai, Ma na moku kome maluna o na wai. O hele, e na luna mama, I ka lahuikanaka ikaika, a koa hoi, I ka lahuikanaka weliweli, mai ka wa kahiko mai, I ka lahuikanaka mana i ka luku aku, A halanaia ko lakou aina e na muliwai.
3All you people of the world and dwellers of the earth, when a banner is raised on the mountains, you will see it; when a ram’s horn sounds, you will hear it.
3E ka poe a pau e noho la ma ka honua, A me na mea a pau e noho ana ma ke ao nei, A hapaiia ka hae ma na mauna, e nana oukou, A kani ka pu, e hoolohe hoi.
4For this is what the LORD has told me: “I will quietly look on from My dwelling place, like shimmering heat in the sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.”
4No ka mea, penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova ia'u, E hoomaha ana au, a me ka nana aku maloko o ko'u wahi e noho ai, E like me ka mehana olu maluna o na mea ulu, Me he ao hau la hoi i ka wa wela o ka hoiliili ai.
5For before the harvest, when the blossom is gone and the flower becomes a ripening grape, He will cut off the shoots with a pruning knife and remove and discard the branches.
5No ka mea, mamua o ka hoiliili ai ana, I ka mohala ana o ka pua, A lilo ka pua i huawaina oo, Alaila, e paipai oia i na lala i na pahi paipai, A e lawe aku no oia i na lala, e paipai aku no.
6They will all be left to the mountain birds of prey, and to the beasts of the land. The birds will feed on them in summer, and all the wild animals in winter.
6E waiho pu ia no lakou no na manu o na mauna, A no na holoholona o ka honua; E kau no na manu maluna olaila, a pau ke kau, E noho no malaila na holoholona a pau o ka aina, a pau ka hoilo.
7At that time gifts will be brought to the LORD of Hosts— from a people tall and smooth-skinned, from a people widely feared, from a powerful nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers— to Mount Zion, the place of the Name of the LORD of Hosts.
7Ia manawa, e laweia mai na makana no Iehova o na kaua, He lahuikanaka ikaika, a koa hoi, He poe weliweli hoi, mai ka wa kakiko mai, He lahuikanaka mana i ka luku aku, Ua halanaia ko lakou aina e na muliwai, A i kahi o ka inoa o Iehova o na kaua, I ka mauna hoi o Ziona.
