Isaia 38
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1I A mau la, he mai make ko Hezekia; a hele mai la o Isaia, ke kaula, ke keiki a Amosa io na la, i mai la ia ia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, E kauoha oe i ko kou hale, no ka mea, e make ana oe, aole oe e ola.
1In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.'
2Alaila, huli ae la o Hezekia i kona maka ma ka paia, a pule aku la ia Iehova,
2Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD,
3I aku la ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, ano la e hoomanao oe i ko'u hele ana imua ou ma ka oiaio, me ka naau pono, a ua hana i ka maikai ma kou alo. A uwe iho la o Hezekia, he uwe nui loa.
3and said: 'Remember now, O LORD, I beseech Thee, how I have walked before Thee in truth and with a whole heart, and have done that which is good in Thy sight.' And Hezekiah wept sore.
4Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io lsaia la, i mai la,
4Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying:
5O hele, e olelo aku ia Hezekia, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o Davida, kou kupuna, penei, Ua lohe au i kau pule, a ua ike no wau i kou waimaka; aia hoi, e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la, i umikumamalima makahiki.
5'Go, and say to Hezekiah: Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears; behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6A e hoopakele no wau ia oe, a me keia kulanakauhale mai ka lima aku o ke alii o Asuria, a na'u no e malama i keia kulanakauhale.
6And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city.
7Eia hoi ka hoailona nou, mai Iehova mai, e hana io mai no o Iehova i ka mea ana i olelo mai ai;
7And this shall be the sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that He hath spoken:
8Aia hoi, e hoihoi ihope no au i ke aka o na degere ana i iho ai ma ka mea ana hora o Ahaza, he umi degere ka hoi hope ana. A hoi hope io no ka la i umi degere, o na degere hoi ana i iho ai ilalo.
8behold, I will cause the shadow of the dial, which is gone down on the sun-dial of Ahaz, to return backward ten degrees.' So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.
9Ke mele a Hezekia ke alii o ka Iuda, mahope iho o kona mai ana, a ua ola hoi i kona mai.
9The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness.
10Olelo iho la au, E komo ana au i na puka o ka malumake, Mawaena konu o ko'u mau la; Ua hooneleia mai au i ke koena o ko'u mau makahiki.
10I said: In the noontide of my days I shall go, even to the gates of the nether-world; I am deprived of the residue of my years.
11I iho la au, aole au e ike aku ia Iehova, Ia Iehova hoi, ma ka aina o ka poe e ola ana; Aole au e ike hou i ke kanaka mawaena o ka poe e noho la ma ka malumake.
11I said: I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD in the land of the living; I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
12Ua laweia ko'u wahi noho, Ua kaikaiia'ku la, mai o'u aku nei, e like me ka halelewa o ke kahuhipa, Ua hooki au i ko'u ola ana, e like me ka mea ulana lole, Ua oki mai oia ia'u mai ka omau ana; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana oe ia'u.
12My habitation is plucked up and carried away from me as a shepherd's tent; I have rolled up like a weaver my life; He will cut me off from the thrum; from day even to night wilt Thou make an end of me.
13Hoomaha ino la au a kakahiaka, E like me ka liona, pela no oia i uhaki ai i ko'u mau iwi a pau; Mai ke ao a po, e hooki mai ana no oe ia'u.
13The more I make myself like unto a lion until morning, the more it breaketh all my bones; from day even to night wilt Thou make an end of me.
14E like me ka manu u, a me ka manu ioio, Pela no wau i ioio ai. Kaniuhu no wau e like me ka manu nunu; Maule hoi ko'u mau maka i ka nana ana iluna; E ka Haku, ua pilikia au, e kokua mai oe ia'u.
14Like a swallow or a crane, so do I chatter, I do moan as a dove; mine eyes fail with looking upward. O LORD, I am oppressed, be Thou my surety.
15Heaha ka'u e olelo aku ai? No ka mea, ua olelo mai oia ia'u, a ua hana io mai no oia: E hele malie no wau i ko'u mau makahiki a pau, No ke kaumaha loa o kuu uhane.
15What shall I say? He hath both spoken unto me, and Himself hath done it; I shall go softly all my years for the bitterness of my soul.
16E ka Haku, no keia mau mea i ola'i na kanaka, Maloko o ka popilikia a pau, ua ola no kuu uhane; Ua hoopau oe i ko'u mai, ua hoola mai oe ia'u
16O Lord, by these things men live, and altogether therein is the life of my spirit; wherefore recover Thou me, and make me to live.
17Aia hoi, ua hoololi mai oia i ko'u kaumaha loa i oluolu, Aloha mai no oe, a hoopakele mai ia'u, mai ka lua mai o ka make; No ka mea, ua kiola aku oe i ko'u hewa a pau mahope o kou kua.
17Behold, for my peace I had great bitterness; but Thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for Thou hast cast all my sins behind Thy back.
18Aole hiki i ko ka po ke hoomaikai aku ia oe, Aole hoi e hoolea aku ka poe make ia oe; O ka poe iho ilalo i ka lua, Aole hiki ia lakou ke manaolana.
18For the nether-world cannot praise Thee, death cannot celebrate Thee; they that go down into the pit cannot hope for Thy truth.
19O ka mea ola, ka mea ola, Nana no e hoomaikai aku ia oe, me au nei i keia la; E hoike no ka makua i na keiki i kou oiaio.
19The living, the living, he shall praise Thee, as I do this day; the father to the children shall make known Thy truth.
20Malaila no o Iehova, e hoola mai ai ia'u, Nolaila kakou e hookanikani ai i ko'u mau viola, I na la a pau o ko kakou ola ana, maloko o ka hale o Iehova.
20The LORD is ready to save me; therefore we will sing songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.
21No ka mea, ua olelo no o Isaia, e lawe lakou i pai fiku maloo, a e kau maluna o ka eha, a e ola no ia.
21And Isaiah said: 'Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover.'
22Ua ninau no hoi o Hezekia, Heaha ka hoailona e maopopo ai ko'u pii ana i ka hale o Iehova?
22And Hezekiah said. 'What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD?'
