Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him.
1A PUHI ae la ka anela elima, a ike aku la au i kekahi hoku i haule, mai ka lani mai a i ka honua. A ua haawiia mai nana, ke ki o ka lua hohonu.
2He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit.
2Wehe ae la oia i ka lua hohonu; a punohu aku la ka uahi, mai ka lua aku, e like me ka uahi o ka umu nui hoohehee hao; pouli iho la ka la a me ka lewa no ka uahi o ka lua.
3Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
3A mai loko mai o ka uahi i hele mai ai maluna o ka honua na uhini; a ua haawiia mai na lakou ka mana, e like me ka mana o na moohueloawa o ka honua.
4They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who don’t have God’s seal on their foreheads.
4A ua kauohaia mai lakou, aole e hana ino i ka mauu o ka honua, aole hoi i kekahi mea uliuli, aole hoi i kekahi laau; i na kanaka wale no, i ka poe aole i loaa ka hoailona o ke Akua ma ko lakou lae.
5They were given power, not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a person.
5Ua haawiia mai, aole e pepehi, aka, e hoomainoino ia lakou i na malama elima. A o ko lakou eha, ua like ia me ka eha a ka moohueloawa, ke hahau mai ia i ke kanaka.
6In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them.
6Ia mau la e imi no na kanaka i ka make, aole e loaa; a e ake no lakou e make, a e holo no ka make mai o lakou aku.
7The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people’s faces.
7A o ke ano o na uhini, ua like ia me na lio i makaukau i ke kaua; a ma ko lakou poo, he mea e like me ka leialii gula, a o ko lakou mau maka ua like me na maka kanaka.
8They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like those of lions.
8A he lauoho ko lakou, ua like hoi me ka lauoho wahine, a o ko lakou niho, ua like me ko ka liona.
9They had breastplates like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of many chariots and horses rushing to war.
9He paleumauma no hoi ko lakou, me he paleumauma hao la ke ano. A o ke kani ana o ko lakou poe eheu, ua like ia me ka halulu ana o na kaakaua lio nui, e holo ana i ke kaua.
10They have tails like those of scorpions, with stingers. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months.
10He huelo ko lakou e like me ko ka moohueloawa, a he mea ooi ma ko lakou huelo: a he mana ko lakou e hoomainoino i kanaka no na malama elima.
11They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon”, but in Greek, he has the name “Apollyon”.
11He alii no hoi ko lakou, oia no ka anela o ka lua hohonu. A o kona inoa Hebera, o Abadona, a ma ka olelo Helene, o Apoluona kona inoa.
12The first woe is past. Behold, there are still two woes coming after this.
12Ua hala kekahi auwe; aia hoi, elua auwe i koe mahope aku.
13The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God,
13Puhi ae la ka anela aono, a lohe aku la au i ka leo, mai na kihi eha o ke kuahu gula mai, aia ma ke alo o ke Akua,
14saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!”
14I mai la i ka anela aono e paa ana i ka pu, E wehe oe i na anela eha i hikiiia ma ka muliwai nui ma Euperate.
15The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of mankind.
15Kuuia aku la ua mau anela la eha, ka poe i makaukau no ka hora, a no ka la, a no ka malama, a no ka makahiki, i pepehi aku lakou i ka hapakolu o na Kanaka.
16The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them.
16A o ka huina helu o na puali holohololio, elua haneri tausani o na tausani lakou. A lohe au i ko lakou heluia ana.
17Thus I saw the horses in the vision and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow; and the horses’ heads resembled lions’ heads. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulfur.
17A ike aku la au ma ka hihio, i na lio a me ka poe i noho iluna o lakou, he ahi no ko lakou paleumauma, a he huakineto, a he luaipele. A o na poo o na lio, ua like me na poo liona; a mai loko mai o ko lakou waha i puka mai ai ke ahi a me ka uahi a me ka luaipele.
18By these three plagues, one third of mankind was killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths.
18I keia mau mea ino ekolu, i make ai ka hapakolu o kanaka, i ke ahi, a i ka uahi a me ka luaipele i puka mai iwaho o ko lakou waha.
19For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads; and with them they harm.
19O ka mana o ia poe lio, aia ma ko lakou waha a me ko lakou huelo; no ka mea, ua like ko lakou huelo me na nahesa, a he poo ko lakou, a oia ko lakou mea e hooeha aku ai.
20The rest of mankind, who were not killed with these plagues, didn’t repent of the works of their hands, that they wouldn’t worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which can’t see, hear, or walk.
20A o kanaka i koe, ka poe i make ole i keia mau mea ino, aole lakou i mihi i na hana a ko lakou mau lima, i ole ai lakou e hoomana aku i na daimonio, a me na'kua kii, o ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ke keleawe, a me ka pohaku, a me ka laau; na mea aole hiki ke nana, aole hoi ke lohe, aole hoi ke hele.
21They didn’t repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality, or their thefts.
21Aole hoi lakou i mihi i ko lakou pepehi kanaka ana, aole hoi i ko lakou pule anaana, aole hoi i ko lakou moe kolohe, aole hoi i ko lakou aihue.
