Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1And the word of the LORD of hosts came, saying:
1A HIKI hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova o na kaua, i mai la,
2'Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great fury.
2Penei ka Iehova o na kaua e olelo mai nei, I lili no au ia Ziona me ka manao nui, A i lili hoi au nona me ka inaina nui.
3Thus saith the LORD: I return unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and Jerusalem shall be called The city of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts The holy mountain.
3Ke olelo mai nei Iehova penei, Ua hoi mai nei au i Ziona, a e noho auanei au iwaena o Ierusalema; A e kapaia o Ierusalema, he kulanakauhale no ka oiaio, A o ka mauna o Iehova o na kaua, he mauna hoano.
4Thus saith the LORD of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women sit in the broad places of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
4Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, Ma ia hope e noho na elemakule a me na luwahine ma na kuamoo o Ierusalema, A e lawe kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona kookoo ma kona lima no ka nui o na la;
5And the broad places of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the broad places thereof.
5A e paapu na kuamoo o ua kulanakauhale nei i na keikikane, A me na kaikamahine e paani ana ma na alanui ona.
6Thus saith the LORD of hosts: If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvellous in Mine eyes? saith the LORD of hosts.
6Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Ina he paakiki keia imua o keia koena kanaka i kela manawa, He mea paakiki hoi anei ia imua o'u? Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
7Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Behold, I will save My people from the east country, and from the west country;
7Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, Aia hoi, e hoopakele auanei au i o'u poe kanaka, Mai ka aina hikina mai, a mai ka aina komohana mai:
8And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
8A e alakai mai au ia lakou, e noho lakou iwaena o Ierusalema: E lilo mai no lakou i kanaka no'u, A owau auanei ko lakou Akua ma ka oiaio a ma ka pono.
9Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets that were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.
9Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, E hooikaika i ka oukou mau lima, E ka poe lohe i keia mau la ia mau olelo, Ma ka waha o na kaula, O ka poe e noho ana i ka wa i hookumuia'i ka hale o Iehova o na kaua, I kukuluia'i ka luakini.
10For before those days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the adversary; for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
10No ka mea, mamua o ia mau la, Aole i loaa i ke kanaka ka uku, Aole hoi he uku no ka holoholona; Aole hoi i maluhia ka mea i hele aku iwaho a i hoi mai iloko, no ka enemi; No ka mea, hookuee aku la au i na kanaka a pau i ko lakou mau hoalauna.
11But now I will not be unto the remnant of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.
11Aka, i neia manawa, aole au e hana aku i keia koena kanaka, E like me ka'u i na la mamua, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
12For as the seed of peace, the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
12No ka mea, e maluhia ka hua kanu, A e hua mai ke kumuwaina i kona hua, A e hooulu mai hoi ka honua i kana mea ulu, A e haawi mai hoi ka lani i kona hau, A e haawi auanei au i keia mau mea a pau no keia koena kanaka.
13And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing; fear not, but let your hands be strong.
13No ka mea, me oukou i hoinoia iwaena o ko na aina e, E ka ohana a Iuda, a me ka ohana a Iseraela, Pela no au e hoola ai ia oukou, a e hoopomaikai ia oukou; Mai makau oukou, e hooikaika hoi i ko oukou mau lima.
14For thus saith the LORD of host: As I purposed to do evil unto you, when your fathers provoked Me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not;
14No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, Me ka'u i manao ai e hoopai aku i ko oukou hewa, I ka wa o ko oukou mau makua i hoonaukiuki mai ai ia'u, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, Aole hoi au i hoololi hou i ka manao;
15so again do I purpose in these days to do good unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear ye not.
15Pela hoi, manao iho au i neia mau la, E lokomaikai aku ia Ierusalema, A i ka ohana a Iuda; mai makau oukou.
16These are the things that ye shall do: Speak ye every man the truth with his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates;
16Eia na mea a oukou e hana'i; E olelo oiaio aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoalauna; A e hookolokolo ma ka oiaio, a ma ka mea e malu ai iloko o na ipuka o oukou.
17and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath; for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD.'
17Mai manao ino aku kekahi o oukou i kona hoalauna maloko o ko oukou naau: Mai makemake hoi i ka hoike wahahee ana: No ka mea, o keia mau mea o pau ka'u e inaina nei, wahi a Iehova.
18And the word of the LORD of hosts came unto me, saying:
18Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova i o'u nei, i ana mai,
19'Thus saith the LORD of hosts: The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful seasons; therefore love ye truth and peace.
19Penei ka Iehova a na kaua e olelo nei, O ka hookeai ana o ka malama aha, me ka hookeai ana o ka alima. Me ka hookeai ana o ka ahiku, a me ka hookeai ana o ka umi, E lilo ia i mea olioli a me ka hauoli, A i mau ahaaina olioli i ka ohana a Iuda; Nolaila e makemake oukou i ka oiaio a me ke kuikahi
20Thus saith the LORD of hosts: It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities;
20Penei ka olelo ana a Iehova o na kaua, Ma ia hope aku no, E hele mai ai na kanaka, A me na kamaaina o na kulanakauhale he nui;
21and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying: Let us go speedily to entreat the favour of the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts; I will go also.
21A e hele aku na kamaaina o kekahi wahi i kekahi, me ka i aku, E haele pu kakou e pule imua o Iehova, A e imi aku ia Iehova o na kaua: Owau hoi kekahi e hele.
22Yea, many peoples and mighty nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favour of the LORD.
22A e hele mai na kanaka he nui loa, A me na lahuikanaka ikaika, E imi ia Iehova o na kaua ma Ierusalema, A e pule imua o Iehova.
23Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'
23Penei ka olelo ana mai o Iehova o na kana, ia manawa, E lalau mai na kanaka he umi no na lahuikanaka o na olelo a pau, E lalau mai auanei lakou i ke kapa o ke kanaka Iudaio, Me ka i ana mai, E hele pu makou me oe; No ka mea, ua lohe makou, me oe pu no ke Akua.
