Ezekiel 44
1 The man then brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary that faced east, but it was shut.
A HOIHOI mai oia ia'u ma ke ala o ka ipuka o kahi hoano waho e nana ana ma ka hikina, a ua pani ia.
2 And the LORD said to me, “This gate is to remain shut. It shall not be opened, and no man shall enter through it, because the LORD, the God of Israel, has entered through it. Therefore it will remain shut.
Alaila olelo mai la Iehova ia'u, E paa no keia puka, aole ia e weheia'e, aole hoi kanaka e komo malaila; no ka mea, ua komo ae Iehova ke Akua no Iseraela ma ia, nolaila e paa ia.
3 Only the prince himself may sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the LORD. He must enter by way of the portico of the gateway and go out the same way.”
No ka moi no ia; o ka moi, oia ke noho malaila, e ai i ka berena imua o Iehova: ma ke ala o ka lanai o ka ipuka e komo ai oia, a malaila no hoi e puka ai ia.
4 Then the man brought me to the front of the temple by way of the north gate. I looked and saw the glory of the LORD filling His temple, and I fell facedown.
Alaila lawe mai oia ia'u ma ke ala o ka ipuka ma ke kukulu akau, ma ke alo o ka hale; a nana aku no hoi au, aia hoi, ua hoopiha ka nani o Iehova i ka hale o Iehova; a haule iho wau ilalo ke alo.
5 The LORD said to me: “Son of man, pay attention; look carefully with your eyes and listen closely with your ears to everything I tell you concerning all the statutes and laws of the house of the LORD. Take careful note of the entrance to the temple, along with all the exits of the sanctuary.
Olelo mai la hoi Iehova ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e noonoo pono, e nana me kou mau maka, a e hoolohe me kou mau peneiao i ka mea a pau a'u e olelo ai ia oe, no na oihana a pau o ka hale o Iehova, a me kona mau kanawai a pau; a e manao kou naau i ke komo ana i ka hale, a me na wahi o kahi hoano e puka ai.
6 Tell the rebellious house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I have had enough of all your abominations, O house of Israel.
E olelo hoi oe i ka poe kipi, i ka ohana hoi a Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, He nui paha ia oukou ko oukou mau mea inainaia a pau, e ka ohana a Iseraela,
7 In addition to all your other abominations, you brought in foreigners uncircumcised in both heart and flesh to occupy My sanctuary; you defiled My temple when you offered My food—the fat and the blood; you broke My covenant.
I ko oukou lawe ana iloko i na keiki a na malihini, i na mea okipoepoe ole ia ma ka naau, a i okipoepoe ole ia ma ka io, e noho iloko o ko'u wahi hoano e hoohaumia ia mea, i kuu hale hoi, i ko oukou kaumaha ana i kuu berena, i ke kaikea, a me ke koko, a ua uhai lakou i kuu berita no ko oukou mau mea inainaia a pau.
8 And you have not kept charge of My holy things, but have appointed others to keep charge of My sanctuary for you.’
Aole oukou i malama i ka oihana no kuu mau mea hoano; aka, ua hoonoho oukou i mau mea kiai ma ka'u oihana iloko o kuu wahi hoano no oukou iho.
9 This is what the Lord GOD says: No foreigner uncircumcised in heart and flesh may enter My sanctuary—not even a foreigner who lives among the Israelites.
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aole ka malihini i okipoepoe ole ia ma ka naau, a i okipoepoe ole ia ma ka io, e komo i kuu wahi hoano, o na malihini iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela.
10 Surely the Levites who wandered away from Me when Israel went astray, and who wandered away from Me after their idols, will bear the consequences of their iniquity.
A o na mamo a Levi i hele mamao aku mai o'u aku nei, i ko Iseraela auwana ana, na mea i auwana'ku mai o'u aku nei, mamuli o ko lakou mau akuakii; e halihali no lakou i ko lakou hewa.
11 Yet they shall be ministers in My sanctuary, having charge of the gates of the temple and ministering there. They shall slaughter the burnt offerings and other sacrifices for the people and stand before them to minister to them.
Aka, e lilo lakou i poe lawelawe maloko o kuu wahi hoano, e malama ana i na puka o kuu hale, e lawelawe ana no ka hale; e pepehi lakou i ka mohaikuni a me ka alana no na kanaka, a e ku lakou imua o ko lakou alo e lawelawe na lakou.
12 Because they ministered before their idols and became a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel, therefore I swore with an uplifted hand concerning them that they would bear the consequences of their iniquity, declares the Lord GOD.
No ka mea, ua lawelawe ia mau mea no lakou mamua o ko lakou poe akuakii, a hoohaule lakou i ka ohana a Iseraela i ka hewa; nolaila ua hapai ku e au i kuu lima ia lakou, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, a e halihali lakou i ko lakou hewa.
13 They must not approach Me to serve Me as priests or come near any of My holy things or the most holy things. They will bear the shame of the abominations they have committed.
Aole hoi lakou e hele kokoke ia'u e hana i ka oihana kahuna no'u, aole hoi e hookokoke i na mea hoano o'u ma kahi hoano loa; aka, e halihali lakou i ko lakou hoinoia, a me ko lakou mau mea inainaia a lakou i hana'i.
14 Yet I will appoint them to keep charge of all the work for the temple and everything to be done in it.
Aka, e hoolilo au ia lakou i mau mea malama i ka oihana o na hale, no ko laila lawelawe ana a pau, a no ka mea a pau e hanaia maloko olaila.
15 But the Levitical priests, who are descended from Zadok and who kept charge of My sanctuary when the Israelites went astray from Me, are to approach Me to minister before Me. They will stand before Me to offer Me fat and blood, declares the Lord GOD.
Aka, o na kahuna na mamo a Levi, na keiki a Zadoka, na mea i malama i ka oihana o kuu wahi hoano, i ka wa i auwana aku ai na mamo a Iseraela mai o'u aku nei, e hele kokoke mai lakou ia'u, e lawelawe na'u, a e ku lakou ma ko'u alo, e kaumaha mai no'u i ke kaikea a me ke koko, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
16 They alone shall enter My sanctuary and draw near to My table to minister before Me. They will keep My charge.
E komo no lakou iloko o kuu wahi hoano, a e hookokoke mai lakou i ko'u papa, i lawelawe na'u, a e malama no hoi lakou i ka'u oihana.
17 When they enter the gates of the inner court, they are to wear linen garments; they must not wear anything made of wool when they minister at the gates of the inner court or inside the temple.
A o keia hoi, i ko lakou komo ana'e maloko ma na ipuka o ka pahale iloko, e hookomo lakou i na kapa komo olona; aole e kau mai ka huluhulu maluna o lakou, i ka wa e lawelawe ai lakou ma na ipuka o ka pahale loko, a maloko ae.
18 They are to wear linen turbans on their heads and linen undergarments around their waists. They must not wear anything that makes them perspire.
E papale lakou i na papale hainaka olona ma ko lakou mau poo, a e hookomo i na lole wawae olona ma ko lakou mau puhaka: aole lakou e kaei ia lakou iho me ka mea hookahe i ka hou.
19 When they go out to the outer court, to the people, they are to take off the garments in which they have ministered, leave them in the holy chambers, and dress in other clothes so that they do not transmit holiness to the people with their garments.
A puka ae lakou i ka pahale mawaho, i ka pahale mawaho i na kanaka, e hemo ia lakou na kapa komo i lawelawe ai lakou, a e waiho ae ia mau mea ma na keena hoano, a e hookomo i na kapa komo e ae; aole hoi lakou e hoolaa i na kanaka me ko lakou mau kapa komo.
20 They must not shave their heads or let their hair grow long, but must carefully trim their hair.
Aole hoi lakou e kahi me ka pahi i ko lakou mau poo, aole hoi e waiho i ko lakou mau wili lauoh'o e ulu a loloa; aka, e ako wale no lakou i ko lakou mau poo.
21 No priest may drink wine before he enters the inner court.
Aole hoi e inu kekahi kahuna i ka waina i ko lakou komo ana i ka pahale maloko.
22 And they shall not marry a widow or a divorced woman, but must marry a virgin of the descendants of the house of Israel, or a widow of a priest.
Aole lakou e mare i ka wahinekanemake i wahine na lakou, aole hoi i ka wahine hemo; aka, o na wahine puupaa ka lakou e lawe ai no na mamo o ka ohana a Iseraela, a o ka wahine paha a ke kahuna mamua.
23 They are to teach My people the difference between the holy and the common, and show them how to discern between the clean and the unclean.
A e ao aku lakou i kuu poe kanaka i ka like ole o ka mea hoano a me ka haumia, a hana hoi e hookaawale lakou iwaena o ka mea maemae, a me ka maemae ole.
24 In any dispute, they shall officiate as judges and judge according to My ordinances. They must keep My laws and statutes regarding all My appointed feasts, and they must keep My Sabbaths holy.
A i ka hakaka ana, e ku lakou ma ka hooponopono; a e hooponopono lakou ia mamuli o ko'u mau kanawai: a e malama hoi lakou i ko'u mau kanawai, a me ka'u mau kauoha, ma ko'u mau anaina a pau; a e hoano no hoi lakou i ko'u mau Sabati.
25 A priest must not defile himself by going near a dead person. However, for a father, a mother, a son, a daughter, a brother, or an unmarried sister, he may do so,
Aole lakou e hele i ke kupapau e hoohaumia ia lakou iho: aka, no ka makuakane, a no ka makuwahine, a me ke keikikane a me ke kaikamahine, a me ka hoahanau kane, a me ke kaikuwahine kane ole, e hiki no ke hoohaumia ia lakou iho.
26 and after he is cleansed, he must count off seven days for himself.
A mahope o kona hoomaemaeia, e helu lakou i na la ehiku nona.
27 And on the day he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he must present his sin offering, declares the Lord GOD.
A i ka la e komo ai oia iloko o kahi hoano, iloko o ka pahale iloko, e lawelawe maloko o kahi hoano, e kaumaha no oia i kana mohailawehala, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
28 In regard to their inheritance, I am their inheritance. You are to give them no possession in Israel, for I am their possession.
A e lilo ia i hooilina no lakou; owau no ko lakou hooilina; aole oukou e haawi ia lakou i waiwai iloko o ka Iseraela: owau no ko lakou waiwai.
29 They shall eat the grain offerings, the sin offerings, and the guilt offerings. Everything in Israel devoted to the LORD will belong to them.
O ka mohai ai, a me ka mohailawehala, a me ka mohaihala, ka lakou e ai ai; a o na mea laa a pau iloko o ka Iseraela, no lakou no ia.
30 The best of all the firstfruits and of every contribution from all your offerings will belong to the priests. You are to give your first batch of dough to the priest, so that a blessing may rest upon your homes.
A o ka mua o na hua mua a pau, o na mea a pau, a me na alana o na mea a pau, o kela alana keia alana a oukou, no ua kahuna no ia; a e haawi oukou na ke kahuna i ka mua o ko oukou palaoa kawili, i bookau mai oia i ka hoomaikai ana maloko o kou hale.
31 The priests may not eat any bird or animal found dead or torn by wild beasts.
A o ka mea make wale, a i haehaeia paha, o ka manu, a o ka holoholona, aole e ai ke kahuna.
