< Jezekiel 8 >

1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the fifth month, on the fifth [day] of the month, I was sitting in the house, and the elders of Juda were sitting before me: and the hand of the Lord came upon me.
EIA hoi keia i ke ono o ka makahiki, i ka malama aono, i ka la alima o ka malama, e noho ana au iloko o kuu hale, a noho no na lunakahiko o ka Iuda imua o'u, haule mai ka lima o Iehova ka Haku malaila, maluna o'u.
2 And I looked, and, behold, the likeness of a man: from his loins and downwards [there was] fire, and from his loins upwards [there was] as the appearance of amber.
Alaila nana aku au, aia hoi he mea ua like ke ano me ke ahi i ka nana aku; mai ka ikea ana o kona puhaka ilalo, he ahi; a mai kona puhaka iluna, me he olinolino la ke nana aku, a me ke keleawe hoohualiia.
3 And he stretched forth the likeness of a hand, and took me by the crown of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and sky, and brought me to Jerusalem in a vision of God, to the porch of the gate that looks to the north, where was the pillar of the Purchaser.
Kikoo mai la oia i ka mea like me ka lima, a lalau mai ia'u ma kekahi wili lauoho o kuu poo, a kaikai ae ka uhane ia'u iluna mawaena o ka honua a me ka lani, a alakai ae la ia'u i Ierusalema ma na hihio o ke Akua, i ka pani o ka pukapa iloko e nana ana i ke kukulu akau, kahi o ke kii e lili ai ka mea hoolili.
4 And, behold, the glory of the Lord God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I saw in the plain.
Aia hoi, malaila ka nani o ke Akua o Iseraela, e like me ka hihio a'u i ike ai ma ka papu.
5 And he said to me, Son of man, lift up your eyes towards the north. So I lifted up mine eyes towards the north, and, behold, [I looked] from the north towards the eastern gate.
Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, Ealawa ae i kou mau maka ma ke kukulu akau. Alawa ae la hoi au i kau mau maka i ke kukulu akau, aia hoi ma ke kukulu akau ma ka puka o ke kuahu keia kii e lili ai, maloko o kahi e komo ai.
6 And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what these do? They commit great abominations here so that I should keep away from my sanctuary: and you shall see yet greater iniquities.
A olelo hou mai la ia, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ke ike nei anei oe i ka mea a lakou e hana nei? na mea e inainaia a ka ohana a Iseraela i hana'i ma keia wahi, i hele loihi aku ai au mai ko'u keenakapu aku? Aka, e haliu hou ae oe, a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia he nui aku.
7 And he brought me to the porch of the court.
A lawe mai oia ia'u ma ka puka o ka pahale, a nana aku au, aia hoi he puka maloko o ka pa.
8 And he said to me, Son of man, dig: so I dug, and behold a door.
Olelo mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e pao ae oe maloko o ka pa. A pao ae la au iloko o ka pa, aia hoi he ipuka.
9 And he said to me, Go in, and behold the iniquities which they practise here.
I mai la hoi ia ia'u, E komo ae oe iloko, a e nana oe i na mea hewa e inainaia a lakou e hana nei maanei.
10 So I went in and looked; and saw vain abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon them round about.
Komo ae la hoi au a ike, aia hoi o ke ano o na mea kolo a pau me na holoholona i hoopailuaia, a me na akuakii o ka ohana a Iseraela i kakauia ma ka pa a puni.
11 And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Jechonias the son of Saphan stood in their presence in the midst of them, and each one held his censer in his hand; and the smoke of the incense went up.
Ku mai la imua o lakou na kanaka he kanahiku o na lunakahiko o ka ohana a Iseraela, a iwaenakonu o lakou e ku ana o Iaazania, ke keiki a Sapana, e paa ana kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona kapuahi kuni mea ala i kona lima. Punohu nui ae la ka uahi mea ala paapu.
12 And he said to me, You have seen, son of man, what the elders of the house of Israel do, each one of them in their secret chamber: because they have said, The Lord see not; The Lord has forsaken the earth.
Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua ike anei oe i ka mea a na lunakahiko o ka ohana a Iseraela e hana nei iloko o ka pouli, kela kanaka keia kanaka iloko o kona keena e nana ai? No ka mea, ke olelo nei lakou, Aole ike mai o Iehova; ua haalele Iehova i ka honua.
13 And he said to me, You shall see yet greater iniquities which these do.
Olelo mai la oia ia'u, E haliu hou ae oe, a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia he nui aku a lakou e hana nei.
14 And he brought me in to the porch of the house of the Lord that looks to the north; and, behold [there were] women sitting there lamenting for Thammuz.
Alaila lawe mai oia ia'u i ke pani o ka ipuka pa o ka hale o Iehova, ka mea ma ka aoao kukulu akau; aia hoi, e noho ana na wahine e uwe ana no Tamuza.
15 And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen; but you shall yet see [evil] practices greater then these.
Ninau mai la oia ia'u, Ua ike anei oe i keia, e ke keiki a ke kanaka? E haliu hou ae oe a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia e oi aku mamua o keia.
16 And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord, and at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty men, with their back parts towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces [turned] the opposite way; and these were worshipping the sun.
Lawe ae la oia ia'u iloko o ka pahale loko o ka hale o Iehova, aia hoi, ma ka puka o ka luakini o Iehova mawaena o ka lanai a me ke kuahu, he iwakaluakumamalima paha o na kanaka, ua huli ko lakou mau kua i ka luakini o Iehova, a o ko lakou mau alo i ka hikina; a hoomana aku la lakou i ka la ma ka hikina.
17 And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen this. [Is it] a little thing to the house of Juda to practise the iniquities which they have practised here? for they have filled the land with iniquity: and, behold, these are as scorners.
Alaila ninau mai la ia ia'u, Ua ike anei oe i keia, e ke keiki a ke kanaka? He mea mama anei i ka ohana a Iuda ka lakou hana ana i na mea e inainaia a lakou e hana nei maanei? no ka mea, ua hoopiha lakou i ka aina i ka hewa, a ua huli mai lakou e hoonaukiuki mai ia'u; aia hoi, ua kau lakou i ka lala ma ko lakou ihu.
18 Therefore will I deal with them in wrath: mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy.
Nolaila owau no kekahi e hana aku me ka ukiuki; aole e aloha kuu maka, aole hoi au e menemene aku; a ina e kahea lakou iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao me ka leo nui, aole au o hoolohe aku ia lakou.
