Micah 4 (HAW1868)

1A I na la mahope e hookupaaia ka mauna o ka hale o Iehova, maluna o na mauna, A e hookiekieia oia maluna o na puu; a e holo na kanaka i ona la.In the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and the peoples will stream to it.

2A e hele na lahuikanaka he nui, a e olelo aku, E hele mai, a e pii aku kakou i ka mauna o Iehova, A i ka hale o ke Akua o Iakoba; A e ao mai ia ia kakou i kona mau aoao, A e hele kakou ma kona mau alanui; No ka mea, e hele ke kanawai mai Ziona aku, A o ka olelo a Iehova mai Ierusalema aku.And many nations will come and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways, so that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

3A e hooponopono no ia iwaena o na kanaka he nui, A e ao aku i na lahuikanaka ikaika, loihi loa aku; A e kui lakou i ka lakou mau pahikaua i oopalau, A i ka lakou mau ihe i pahipaipai: Aole e hapai ka lahuikanaka i ka pahikaua ku e i ka lahuikanaka, Aole hoi e ao hou lakou i ke kaua.Then He will judge between many peoples and arbitrate for strong nations far and wide. Then they will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor will they train anymore for war.

4A e noho kela kanaka keia kanaka malalo o kona kumuwaina, a malalo o kona laau fiku, Aohe mea nana e hoomakau mai; No ka mea, o ka waha o Iehova o na kaua, ka i olelo mai.And each man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, with no one to frighten him. For the mouth of the LORD of Hosts has spoken.

5No ka mea, e hele na kanaka a pau, o kela kanaka keia kanaka ma ka inoa o kona akua, A e hele kakou ma ka inoa o Iehova ko kakou Akua, ia ao aku ia ao aku.Though all the nations may walk in the name of their gods, yet we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.

6I kela la, wahi a Iehova, houluulu au i ka mea oopa, A e hoakoakoa i ka mea i hookukeia'ku, a i ka mea a'u i hookaumaha ai:“On that day,” declares the LORD, “I will gather the lame; I will assemble the outcast, even those whom I have afflicted.

7A e hoolilo au i ka mea oopa i koena, A i ka mea i hookuke loihi ia'ku, i lahuikanaka ikaika; A e noho alii o Iehova maluna o lakou ma ka mauna o Ziona, mai ia manawa aku, a i ka wa mau loa aku no.And I will make the lame into a remnant, the outcast into a strong nation. Then the LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion from that day and forever.

8A o oe, e ka halekiai o ka poe holoholona, Ka puu o ke kaikamahine a Ziona, E hele mai no ia iou la, O ke alii ana mamua; E hele mai ke aupuni i ke kaikamahine o Ierusalema.And you, O watchtower of the flock, O stronghold of the Daughter of Zion—the former dominion will be restored to you; sovereignty will come to the Daughter of Jerusalem.”

9Ano, no ke aha la kou uwe nui ana? Aole anei he alii iloko ou? Ua make anei kou kakaolelo? No ka mea, ua loohia oe e ka eha, e like me ka wahine nahukuakoko.Why do you now cry aloud? Is there no king among you? Has your counselor perished so that anguish grips you like a woman in labor?

10E haalulu, a e kuakoko, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona, me he wahine hanau la: No ka mea, ano e hele aku oe mai ke kulanakauhale aku, A e noho oe ma ke kula, A e hele aku oe a Babulona; A malaila e hoopakeleia oe; Malaila e hoola mai ai o Iehova ia oe mai ka lima mai o ko oukou poe enemi.Writhe in agony, O Daughter of Zion, like a woman in labor. For now you will leave the city and camp in the open fields. You will go to Babylon; there you will be rescued; there the LORD will redeem you from the hand of your enemies!

11Ano hoi, ua nui na lahuikanaka i akoakoa ku e mai ia oe, Ka mea e olelo ana, E hoohaumiaia oia, a e nana aku ko kakou maka i Ziona.But now many nations have assembled against you, saying, “Let her be defiled, and let us feast our eyes on Zion.”

12Aka, aole lakou i ike i na manao o Iehova, Aole i ike lakou i kona noonoo ana: No ka mea, e hoakoakoa oia ia lakou, me he pua la ma kahi hehi palaoa.But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD or understand His plan, for He has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.

13E ku iluna, a e hehi iho, e ke kaikamahine o Ziona; No ka mea, o hoolilo aku au i kou pepeiaohao i hao, A e hoolilo hoi au i kou mau maiuu wawae i keleawe: A e kui iho oe a liilii na kanaka he nui: A e hoolaa aku au i ka lakou loaa no Iehova, A i ko lakou waiwai no ka Haku o ka honua a pau.Rise and thresh, O Daughter of Zion, for I will give you horns of iron and hooves of bronze to break to pieces many peoples. Then you will devote their gain to the LORD, their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
