Amosa 8
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1PENEIA i hoike mai ai o Iehova ka Haku ia'u: aia hoi, he hinai hua oo.
1This is what the Lord GOD showed me: I saw a basket of summer fruit.
2A i mai la ia, Heaha kau e ike nei, e Amosa? I aku la au, He hinai hua oo. Alaila, i mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ua hiki mai ka hope maluna o kuu poe kanaka o ka Iseraela; Aole au e hele hou ae mai o lakou aku.
2“Amos, what do you see?” He asked. “A basket of summer fruit,” I replied. So the LORD said to me, “The end has come for My people Israel; I will no longer spare them.”
3A e lilo na mele o ka halealii i auwe ana ia la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku: A he nui auanei na kupapau ma na wahi a pau: a e hoolei malu aku ia lakou.
3“In that day,” declares the Lord GOD, “the songs of the temple will turn to wailing. Many will be the corpses, strewn in silence everywhere!”
4E hoolohe i keia, e oukou ka mea e moni i ka poe ilihune, a hoopau i ka poe nele o ka aina,
4Hear this, you who trample the needy, who do away with the poor of the land,
5I ka i ana ae, Ahea la e pau ai ka mahina hou, i kuai aku ai kakou i ka ai? A me ka Sabati, i wehe ae ai kakou i ka hua ai, e houuku ana i ka epa, A e hoomahuahua ana i ke sekela, a e hoololi ana i na mea kaupaona hoopunipuni?
5asking, “When will the New Moon be over, that we may sell grain? When will the Sabbath end, that we may market wheat? Let us reduce the ephah and increase the shekel; let us cheat with dishonest scales.
6I kuai aku ai kakou i ka poe ilihune no ke kala, A i ka poe nele no ka paa kamaa; a i kuai aku ai i ka hua palaoa ino?
6Let us buy the poor with silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, selling even the chaff with the wheat!”
7Ua hoohiki o Iehova ma ka nani o Iakoba, Aole loa au e hoopoina i ka lakou mau hana a pau.
7The LORD has sworn by the Pride of Jacob: “I will never forget any of their deeds.
8Aole anei e haalulu ka aina no keia mea, a e auwe na mea a pau e noho ana iloko ona? A e pii ae ia me he muliwai la a puni ona; A e laweia'ku ia, a e halana ae ia e like me ka muliwai o Aigupita.
8Will not the land quake for this, and all its dwellers mourn? All of it will swell like the Nile; it will surge and then subside like the Nile in Egypt.
9A i kela la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E hoonapoo iho au i ka la i ke awakea, a e hoopouli iho au i ka aina i ka la laelae.
9And in that day, declares the Lord GOD, I will make the sun go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the daytime.
10A e hoolilo au i ka oukou mau ahaaina i auwe ana, A i ko oukou mau mele i kanikau ana; A e lawe mai au i ke kapa ino maluna o na puhaka a pau, A me ka ohule maluna o na poo a pau; A e hoohalike au ia mea me ka auwe ana no ke keiki kamakahi, A i ka hope o ia mea e like me ka la awaawa.
10I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into lamentation. I will cause everyone to wear sackcloth and every head to be shaved. I will make it like a time of mourning for an only son, and its outcome like a bitter day.
11Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E lawe mai ai au i ka wi maluna o ka aina, aole o ka wi i ka ai, aole o ka make inu i ka wai, Aka, o ka lohe i ka olelo a Iehova.
11Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord GOD, when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD.
12A e auwana lakou mai ke kai a hiki i ke kai, a mai ke kukulu akau, a ka hikina, E holo lakou ma o a ma o, e imi ana i ka olelo a Iehova, aole e loaa.
12People will stagger from sea to sea and roam from north to east, seeking the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.
13I kela la. e maule na wahine puupaa maikai, a me na kanaka opio no ka makewai.
13In that day the lovely young women— the young men as well— will faint from thirst.
14O ka poe e hoohiki ma ka hewa o Samaria, a i iho, E ola ana kou Akua, e Dana; a e ola ana ka aoao o Beereseba; E haule no hoi lakou, aole loa e ala hou ae.
14Those who swear by the guilt of Samaria and say, ‘As surely as your god lives, O Dan,’ or, ‘As surely as the way of Beersheba lives’— they will fall, never to rise again.”
