Zechariah 1

1 In the eighth month, in the second year of king Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying:

I KA malama ewalu o ka makahiki elua o Dariu, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Zekaria, ke keiki a Berekia, ke keiki a Ido, ke kaula, i ka i ana mai,

2 The Lord hath been exceeding angry with your fathers.

Ua ukiuki loa o Iehova i ko oukou poe kupuna.

3 And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Turn ye to me, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will turn to you, saith the Lord of hosts.

Nolaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou nei, Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo mai nei, E huli mai oukou io'u nei, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, a e huli aku hoi au ia oukou la, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.

4 Be not as your fathers, to whom the former prophets have cried, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Turn ye from your evil ways, and from your wicked thoughts: but they did not give ear, neither did they hearken to me, saith the Lord.

Mai noho a like oukou me ko oukou poe kupuna, ka poe a ka poe kaula mua i kahea aku ai, i ka i ana, Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo mai ai, E huli no oukou mai ka oukou mau aoao hewa mai, a mai ka oukou hana hewa ana hoi; aole nae lakou i hoolohe mai, aole hoi i malama mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova.

5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, shall they live always?

O ko oukou poe kupuna, auhea la lakou? A o ka poe kaula, e ola mau anei lakou?

6 But yet my words, and my ordinances, which I gave in charge to my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers, and they returned, and said: As the Lord of hosts thought to do to us according to our ways, and according to our devices, so he hath done to us.

Aka, o ka'u mau olelo a me ko'u mau kanawai, a'u i kauoha aku ai i ka'u poe kauwa i ka poe kaula, aole anei i hookoia ua mau mea la i na makua o oukou? A ua huli mai lakou me ka olelo ae, Me ka Iehova o na kaua i manao ai e hana mai ia makou ma ko makou mau aoao a ma ka makou mau hana, pela no ia i hana mai ai ia makou.

7 In the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month which is called Sabath, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying:

I ka la iwakaluakumamaha o ka umikumamakahi o ka malama, oia ka malama Sebata, i ka lua o ka makahiki o Dariu, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova i ke kaula ia Zekaria ke keiki a Berekia, ke keiki a Ido, i ka i ana mai,

8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees, that were in the bottom: and behind him were horses, red, speckled, and white.

Ua ike au i ka po, aia hoi, he kanaka e noho ana maluna o ka lio ulaula, e ku ana iwaena o na laau mureto ma kahi malumalu, a mahope ona na lio ulaula, kikokiko a keokeo.

9 And I said: What are these, my Lord? and the angel that spoke in me, said to me: I will shew thee what these are:

A ninau aku la au, Owai la keia poe, e ka Haku? I mai la ka anela e kamailio ana me au, E hoike aku no au ia oe i keia poe.

10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered, and said: These are they, whom the Lord hath sent to walk through the earth.

Olelo mai la ke kanaka e ku ana iwaena o na laau mureto, i mai la, O lakou nei ka poe a Iehova i hoouna mai ai e kaahele maluna o ka honua.

11 And they answered the angel of the Lord, that stood among the myrtle trees, and said: We have walked through the earth, and behold all the earth is inhabited, and is at rest.

Olelo mai la lakou i ka anela o Iehova e ku ana iwaena o na laau mureto, i mai la, Ua kaahele makou i ka honua, aia hoi, ua noho malie, a ua malu hoi ko ka honua a pau.

12 And the angel of the Lord answered, and said: O Lord of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem, and on the cities of Juda, with which thou hast been angry? this is now the seventieth year.

Alaila, olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova, i mai la, E Iehova o na kaua, Pehea la ka loihi o kou aloha ole mai ia Ierusalema, a me na kulanakauhale o Iuda, au i huhu mai ai i neia mau makahiki he kanahiku?

13 And the Lord answered the angel, that spoke in me, good words, comfortable words.

Olelo mai la o Iehova i ka anela i kamailio me au i na olelo aloha, a me na olelo hooluolu.

14 And the angel that spoke in me, said to me: Cry thou, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I am zealous for Jerusalem, and Sion with a great zeal.

A o ka anela i kamailio me au, i mai la oia ia'u, penei, E kahea aku oe, i ka i ana aku, Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo mai ai, ua aloha no au ia Ierusalema a ia Ziona i ke aloha nui.

15 And I am angry with a great anger with the wealthy nations: for I was angry a little, but they helped forward the evil.

A ua huhu loa au i ko na aina e e noho nanea ana; a i kuu wa i huhu uuku ai, kokua aku la lakou i ka hoopilikia ana.

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord: I will return to Jerusalem in mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts: and the building line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.

Nolaila, ke i mai nei o Iehova, Ua hoi hou mai nei au i Ierusalema me ke aloha; e kukuluia ko'u hale iloko ona, wahi a Iehova o na kaua; a e kauia ke kaula-ana maluna o Ierusalema.

17 Cry yet, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: My cities shall yet flow with good things: and the Lord will yet comfort Sion, and he will yet choose Jerusalem.

E kahea aku hoi, i ka i ana, Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo ai; Ma ia hope e hoopiha la ia ko'u mau kulanakauhale i ka lokomaikai; a ma ia hope hoi e hooluolu o Iehova ia Ziona, a e wae hoi ia Ierusalema.

18 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold four horns.

Alaila alawa ae la ko'u mau maka iluna, ike aku la au, aia hoi, he mau pepeiaohao eha.

19 And I said to the angel that spoke to me: What are these? And he said to me: These are the horns that have scattered Juda, and Israel, and Jerusalem.

Alaila, i aku la au i ka anela i kamailio me au, Heaha keia mau mea? I mai la kela ia'u, Eia na pepeiaohao I hooauhee aku i ka Iuda, i ka Iseraela a me ko Ierusalema.

20 And the Lord shewed me four smiths.

A hoike mai la o Iehova ia'u i na kamena eha.

21 And I said: What come these to do? and he spoke, saying: These are the horns which have scattered Juda every man apart, and none of them lifted up his head: and these are come to fray them, to cast down the horns of the nations, that have lifted up the horn upon the land of Juda to scatter it.

I aku la au, Heaha ka lakou nei e hana'i? I mai la kela, penei, O keia no na pepeiaohao, nana i hooauhee ia Iuda, i hookiekie ole ai kekahi i kona poo; a ua hele mai keia poe e hoomakau ia lakou, a e kipaku aku i na pepeiaohao o ko na aina e, o ka poe hookiekie i ka pepeiaohao maluna o ka aina o ka Iuda e hooauhee aku ai ia ia.
