Amosa 6
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1A UWE ka poe palaka ma Ziona, A hilinai hoi ma ka mauna o Samaria: Ka poe i oleloia, o na pookela o na lahuikanaka, Io lakou la i hele mai ka Iseraela!
1Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and to them that are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!
2E hele aku oukou i Kalene, a e nana; A mai laila aku e hele ai oukou i Hamata nui; Alaila, e iho aku i Gata o ko Pilisetia: Ua oi anei ko lakou maikai mamua o ko keia mau aupuni? Ua oi anei ka palahalaha o ko lakou mokuna mamua o ko oukou mokuna?
2Pass ye unto Calneh, and see, and from thence go ye to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines; are they better than these kingdoms? or is their border greater than your border?
3Auwe ka poe i hooloihi aku i ka la ino, A hookokoke i ka noho hookaumaha wale;
3Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
4Ka poe e moe ana maluna o na wahi moe niho elepani, A moe hoolei loa maluna o ko lakou wahi moe, A ai iho i na keikihipa o ka poe hipa, A me na keiki bipi i kupeleia;
4That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
5Ka poe mele mamuli o ka viola, A hana lakou no lakou iho i na mea kani e like me Davida;
5That thrum on the psaltery, that devise for themselves instruments of music, like David;
6Ka poe inu waina maloko o na kiaha, A kahinu ia lakou iho i ka hinu maikai: Aka, aole i kaumaha lakou no ka eha ana o ka Iosepa!
6That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments; but they are not grieved for the hurt of Joseph.
7No ia mea, ano e hele pio aku ai lakou iwaena o ka poe pio mua, A e laweia'ku ka olioli o ka poe moe hoolei loa.
7Therefore now shall they go captive at the head of them that go captive, and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.
8Ua hoohiki o Iehova ka Haku, ma kona ola, wahi a Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, Ke hoopailua nei au i ka haaheo o Iakoba, A ke hoowahawaha nei hoi i kona mau halealii; Nolaila, e hoolilo aku ai au i ke kulanakauhale, a me kona mea i piha ai.
8The Lord GOD hath sworn by Himself, saith the LORD, the God of hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will deliver up the city with all that is therein.
9A ina e waihoia na kanaka he umi ma ka hale hookahi, e make no lakou.
9And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
10A o ka hoahanau o kona makuakane e lawe aku ia ia, A o ka mea i puhi ia ia, e lawe aku iwaho i na iwi mailoko mai o ka hale, A e olelo aku i ka mea maloko loa o ka hale, Aole anei he mea i koe me oe? e i mai kela, Aole. Alaila, e i aku ia, Hamau; no ka mea, aole e olelo ma ka inoa o Iehova.
10And when a man's uncle shall take him up, even he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is in the innermost parts of the house: 'Is there yet any with thee?' and he shall say: 'No'; then shall he say: 'Hold thy peace; for we must not make mention of the name of the LORD.'
11No ka mea, aia hoi, ke kauoha mai nei o Iehova, A e hahau aku ia i ka hale nui me ka nahaha, A i ka hale uuku me ka wawahi.
11For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and the great house shall be smitten into splinters, and the little house into chips.
12E holo anei na lio maluna o na pohaku? E mahi oopalau ia anei malaila me na bipi kauo? No ka mea, ua hoolilo oukou i ka hoopono ana i laau make, A i ka hua o ka pono, i laau awaawa:
12Do horses run upon the rocks? Doth one plow there with oxen? that ye have turned justice into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;
13E oukou, ka poe e olioli ana i ka mea ole, Ka poe e olelo, Aole anei kakou i lawe no kakou i na pepeiaohao ma ko kakou ikaika?
13Ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say: 'Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?'
14Aka, aia hoi, e hoala ku e auanei au i lahuikanaka ia oukou, e ko ka hale o Iseraela, wahi a Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua; A e hookaumaha lakou ia oukou mai ke komo ana o Hamata a hiki i ke kahawai o ka papu.
14For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of the Arabah.
