Lamentations 1

World English Bible
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1How the city sits solitary, that was full of people! She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces has become a slave!
1NANI ka noho mehameha ana o ke kulanakauhale i piha i kanaka! Ua like hoi me ka wahine kanemake! He nui oia iwaena o na lahuikauaka, He alii wahine iwaena o na aina; Ua auhauia nae i ka hana!
2She weeps bitterly in the night. Her tears are on her cheeks. Among all her lovers she has no one to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her. They have become her enemies.
2Uwe nui oia i ka po, Aia no kona waimaka ma kona mau papalina: Aohe mea nana ia e hoomaha aku iwaena o ka poe a pau i aloha aku ia ia. Ua hana aku kona poe makamaka a pau ia ia ma ka wahahee, Ua lilo lakou i poe enemi nona.
3Judah has gone into captivity because of affliction and because of great servitude. She dwells among the nations. She finds no rest. All her persecutors overtook her in her distress.
3Ua lawepioia o ka Iuda, no ka popilikia, a no ka hookauwa nui ia: Ke noho nei ia iwaena o ko na aina e, Aole i loaa ia ia ka hoomaha; Loaa no ia iloko o ka pilikia i ka poe a pau i hahai ia ia.
4The roads to Zion mourn, because no one comes to the solemn assembly. All her gates are desolate. Her priests sigh. Her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
4Kumakena no na alanui o Ziona, No ka hele ole mai o lakou i ka ahaaina: Ua mehameha kona mau pukapa a pau; Ke kaniuhu nei kona mau kahuna pule, Ua hoopilikiaia kona mau wahine puupaa, A ua kaumaha loa no ia.
5Her adversaries have become the head. Her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions. Her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.
5Ua lilo kona poe enemi i poo, Ua maluhia hoi ka poe i huhu ia ia; No ka mea, ua hookaumaha mai o Iehova ia ia no ka nui o kona hewa; Ua hele pio aku la kana poe keiki imua o ke alo o ka enemi.
6All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion. Her princes have become like deer that find no pasture. They have gone without strength before the pursuer.
6Ua hele aku la ka nani a pau o ke kaikamahine o Ziona; Ua like hoi kona mau alii me na dia loaa ole ka ai, Ua hele hoi lakou me ka ikaika ole imua o ka mea nana e hahai.
7Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that were from the days of old; when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her. They mocked at her desolations.
7I na la o kona kaumaha, a me kona hoinoia, Hoomanao iho la o Ierusalema i kona mau mea a pau i makemakeia, Na mea i loaa ia ia i na la mamua, I ka wa i haule ai kona poe kanaka iloko o ka lima o ka enemi, Aohe hoi mea i kokua ia ia. Ike aku la na enemi ia ia, a hoowahawaha iho la i kona mau Sabati.
8Jerusalem has grievously sinned. Therefore she has become unclean. All who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness. Yes, she sighs and turns backward.
8Ua hana hewa nui loa aku o Ierusalema; Nolaila oia i kuewa wale aku ai; O ka poe a pau i hoomaikai ia ia, Ke hoowahawaha nei lakou ia ia, No ka mea, ua ike lakou i kona wahi hilahila; Oia, ke kaniuhu nei oia, a huli ihope.
9Her filthiness was in her skirts. She didn’t remember her latter end. Therefore she has come down astoundingly. She has no comforter. “See, LORD, my affliction; for the enemy has magnified himself.”
9Aia no kona haumia ma kona hualole, Aole ia i hoomanao i kona hope loa; Nolaila haule kupanaha iho la oia; Aohe mea nana e hoomaha ia ia. E Iehova, e nana mai oe i ko'u pilikia; No ka mea, ua hookiekie ka enemi.
10The adversary has spread out his hand on all her pleasant things; for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
10Ua hohola aku ka enemi i kona lima maluna o kona mau mea a pau i makemakeia; No ka mea, ua ike aku oia i ko na aina e, e komo ana iloko o kona wahi hoano, Ka poe au i kauoha'i, aole lakou e komo iloko o ke anaina kanaka iou la.
11All her people sigh. They seek bread. They have given their pleasant things for food to refresh their soul. “Look, LORD, and see, for I have become despised.”
11Ua kaniuhu no kona poe kanaka a pau, Ke imi nei lakou i ka ai; Ua haawi lakou i ko lakou mau mea, i mea ai, e hoihoi mai ai i ke ola; E nana mai oe, e Iehova, a e manao mai; No ka mea, ua lilo au i mea ino.
12“Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which the LORD has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
12He mea ole ia ia oukou a pau, e hele ae nei ma ke ala? E nana mai nae, a e ike, Ina e like kekahi ehaeha me ko'u ehaeha, Ka mea i kauia maluna o'u, Ka mea a Iehova i hookaumaha mai ai ia'u, I ka la o kona inaina nui.
13“From on high has he sent fire into my bones, and it prevails against them. He has spread a net for my feet. He has turned me back. He has made me desolate and I faint all day long.
13Mailuna mai oia i hoouna mai ai i ke ahi iloko o ko'u mau iwi, A iho mai la ia iloko olaila. Ua uhola mai oia i upena no ko'u mau wawae, Ua hoihoi hope mai oia ia'u. Ua haawi mai oia i ka mehameha a me ka maule ia'u a pau ka la.
14“The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand. They are knit together. They have come up on my neck. He made my strength fail. The Lord has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
14Ua hoopaaia e kona lima ka auamo o ko'u mau hewa; Ua ulanaia, a ua kauia maluna o ko'u a i; Ua hoonawaliwali mai oia i ko'u ikaika, Ua haawi mai ka Haku ia'u iloko o na lima, Hiki ole ia'u ke ku iluna.
15“The Lord has set at nothing all my mighty men within me. He has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. The Lord has trodden the virgin daughter of Judah as in a wine press.
15Ua hoowahawaha mai ka Haku i ko'u poe koikoi a pau iloko o'u, Ua kahea mai oia i ka ahakanaka e ku e mai ia'u, E luku i ko'u poe kanaka ui: Ua hahi ka Haku i ka luawaina o ke kaikamahine puupaa o ka Iuda.
16“For these things I weep. My eye, my eye runs down with water, because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.”
16O keia mau mea ka'u e uwe nei, O kuu maka, ke kahe nei kuu maka i ka wai, No ka mea, ua loihi mai o'u aku nei ka mea hoomaha, nana e hoomaha mai i ko'u uhane: Ua mehameha ka'u poe keiki, no ka mea, ua lanakila ka enemi.
17Zion spreads out her hands. There is no one to comfort her. The LORD has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.
17Hohola ae la o Ziona i kona mau lima, Aohe mea nana ia e hoomaha mai. Ua kauoha mai o Iehova no Iakoba, E kaapuni kona poe enemi ia ia: Ua lilo o Ierusalema i mea haumia iwaena o lakou.
18“The LORD is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Please hear all you peoples, and see my sorrow. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
18O Iehova, ua hemolele oia; No ka mea, ua ku e aku au i kona waha; Ke noi aku nei au, e hoolohe mai, e na kanaka a pau, E nana mai hoi i ko'u eha; Ua hele aku la ko'u poe wahine puupaa, a me ko'u poe kanaka ui iloko o ke pio.
19“I called for my lovers, but they deceived me. My priests and my elders gave up the spirit in the city, while they sought food for themselves to refresh their souls.
19Kahea aku la au i ka poe i aloha mai ia'u, Wahahee mai lakou ia'u. Kaili aku la ke ea o ka'u mau kahuna, a me ka'u poe lunakahiko, ma ke kulanakauhale, I ka wa e imi ana lakou i ka ai na lakou, I mea e hoihoi mai ai i ko lakou ola.
20“Look, LORD; for I am in distress. My heart is troubled. My heart turns over within me, for I have grievously rebelled. Abroad, the sword bereaves. At home, it is like death.
20E nana mai oe, e Iehova, no ka mea, ua pilikia au; Ua hu aku ko'u opu, ua kahuli hoi ko'u naau iloko o'u, No ka mea, ua kipi nui loa aku au. Ma kahi e aku, na ka pahikaua i hoopau i na keiki, A ma ko makou wahi, he make.
21“They have heard that I sigh. There is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble. They are glad that you have done it. You will bring the day that you have proclaimed, and they will be like me.
21Ua lohe lakou i ko'u kaniuhu ana. Aohe mea nana e hoomaha mai ia'u; Ua lohe no ko'u poe enemi a pau i ko'u popilikia, Ua olioli lakou no kau hana ana pela: E hoopuka mai no oe i ka la au i hai mai ai, E like auanei lakou me au.
22“Let all their wickedness come before you. Do to them as you have done to me for all my transgressions. For my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.
22E hoopukaia ko lakou hewa a pau imua ou; A e hana aku oe ia lakou, Me kau i hana mai ai ia'u, no ko'u mau hewa a pau; No ka mea, ua nui ko'u kaniuhu ana, ua maule hoi ko'u naau.
