Isaia 64
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1I NA oe e wahi i na lani, a iho hoi ilalo, I hehee na mauna imua o kou alo,
1(63-19) Oh, that Thou wouldest rend the heavens, that Thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might quake at Thy presence,
2E like me ke ahi i hoa i ka laau liilii, A me ke ahi i hoolapalapa ai i ka wai, I mea e hookaulana'i i kou inoa iwaena o kou poe enemi, I haalulu hoi na lahuikanaka imua o kou alo!
2(64-1) As when fire kindleth the brush-wood, and the fire causeth the waters to boil; to make Thy name known to Thine adversaries, that the nations might tremble at Thy presence,
3Me kau i hana'i i na mea weliweli a makou i manao ole ai, No ka mea, iho mai no oe, i hehee na mauna imua o kou alo.
3(64-2) When Thou didst tremendous things which we looked not for — Oh that Thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might quake at Thy presence! —
4Mai ka wa kahiko loa mai, aole i lohe lakou, aole i komo i ka pepeiao, Aole hoi i ike aku ka maka i ke Akua e ae, ke kaawale oe, I hana pela i ka mea kakali ia ia.
4(64-3) And whereof from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen a God beside Thee, who worketh for him that waiteth for Him.
5Ua kuikahi no oe me ka mea olioli i ka hana i ka pono, Ka mea e hoomanao ia oe ma kou mau aoao; Aia hoi, ua huhu mai no oe, no ka mea, ua hana hewa makou; Maloko o kela mau mea, ua oia mau no, A e hoolaia no hoi makou.
5(64-4) Thou didst take away him that joyfully worked righteousness, those that remembered Thee in Thy ways — behold, Thou wast wroth, and we sinned — upon them have we stayed of old, that we might be saved.
6Aka, ua like no makou a pau me ka mea haumia, Ua like hoi ko makou pono a pau me ke kapa pea; A mae wale no hoi makou a pau, e like me ka lau; A ua kaikai aku no ko makou hewa ia makou, e like me ka makani.
6(64-5) And we are all become as one that is unclean, and all our righteousnesses are as a polluted garment; and we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
7Aohe mea i hea aku i kou inoa, A hoala ia ia iho e hooikaika aku ma ou la; No ka mea, ua huna oe i kou maka, mai o makou aku, A ua hoomaule hoi ia makou no ko makou mau hewa.
7(64-6) And there is none that calleth upon Thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of Thee; for Thou hast hid Thy face from us, and hast consumed us by means of our iniquities.
8Ano la, o oe, e Iehova, ko makou Makua, O makou no ka lepo, o oe ko makou potera; A o makou no a pau ka hana a kou lima.
8(64-7) But now, O LORD, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and Thou our potter, and we all are the work of Thy hand.
9Mai ukiuki nui mai oe, e Iehova, Mai hoomanao mau loa hoi i ka hewa: Aia hoi, ke nonoi aku nei makou ia oe, e nana mai, O makou no a pau kou poe kanaka.
9(64-8) Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever; behold, look, we beseech Thee, we are all Thy people.
10Ua lilo no kou mau kulanakauhale laa i waonahele, He waonahele o Ziona, He wahi neoneo o Ierusalema.
10(64-9) Thy holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11O ko makou hale laa, a nani hoi, Kahi a ko makou poe makua i hoonani ai ia oe, Ua pau ia i ke ahi; A ua anaiia hoi ko makou mau mea maikai a pau.
11(64-10) Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised Thee, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
12E uumi anei oe ia oe no keia mau mea, e Iehova? E noho ekemu ole anei oe, a e hoopilikia loa mai ia makou?
12(64-11) Wilt Thou refrain Thyself for these things, O LORD? Wilt Thou hold Thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
