< Ezekiel 21 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
A LAILA hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and let thy speech flow towards the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel:
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hooku oe i kou wahi maka ia Ierusalema, a hoolei aku i kau olelo ma ke kupono i ua wahi hoano, a e wanana ku e i ka aina o ka Iseraela,
3 And say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off in thee the just, and the wicked.
A e olelo aku i ka aina o ka Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Ke ka e nei au ia oe, a e unuhi ae au i kuu pahikaua mailoko ae o kona wahi, a e oki aku au mai ou aku nei i ka mea pono a me ka mea hewa.
4 And forasmuch as I have cut off in thee the just, and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh, from the south even to the north.
A no ko'u oki ana aku mai ou aku nei i ka mea pono a me ka mea hewa, nolaila e hele aku ko'u pahikaua maiioko aku o kona wahi e ku e i na io a pau, mai ke kukuluhema, a ke kukuluakau;
5 That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn my sword out of its sheath not to be turned back.
I ike ka io a pau, ua unuhi ae wau o Iehova i kuu pahikaua mailoko ae o kona wahi; aole ia e hoi hou iho.
6 And thou, son of man, mourn with the breaking of thy loins, and with bitterness sigh before them.
Nolaila e auwe oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, me ka hai ana o kou puhaka, a me ke kaumaha loa e auwe ai imua o ko lakou mau maka.
7 And when they shall say to thee: Why mournest thou? thou shalt say: For that which I hear: because it cometh, and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be made feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and water shall run down every knee: behold it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord God.
Eia hoi, i ko lakou ninau ana ia oe, No ke aha la oe e auwe nei? e olelo aku oe, No ka louo; no ka mea, e hiki mai ana no; a e hehee no na naau a pau, a e pau no na lima i ka nawaliwali, a e maule no hoi na kuli a pau me he wai la: no ka mea, eia hoi, e hele mai no ia, a e hookoia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
8 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
9 Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Say: The sword, the sword is sharpened, and furbished.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana aku oe, a e olelo aku, Ke i mai nei ka Haku penei; E ka pahikaua, ua hookalaia ka pahikaua, ua hoohualiia:
10 It is sharpened to kill victims: it is furbished that it may glitter: thou removest the sceptre of my son, thou hast cut down every tree.
Ua hookalaia i luku nui aku ia; a ua hoohualiia ia e olinolino ia: he pono no anei ia kakou ke hana lealea? Ua hoowahawaha no ke kookoo o ka'u keiki i na kumu laau a pau.
11 And I have given it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, that it may be in the hand of the slayer.
Ua haawiia mai no ia e hoohualiia ia i lawelaweia; ua hookalaia keia pahikaua, a ua hoohualiia e haawiia iloko o ka lima o ka mea luku.
12 Cry, and howl, O son of man, for this sword is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel, that are fled: they are delivered up to the sword with my people, strike therefore upon thy thigh,
E auwe ae, a e aoa ae, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, no ka mea, maluna auanei ia o ko'u poe kanaka, maluna no ia o na'lii a pau o ka Iseraela; ua haawi pu ia lakou i ka pahikaua me ko'u poe kanaka; nolaila e hahau oe maluna iho o kou uha.
13 Because it is tried: and that when it shall overthrow the sceptre, and it shall not be, saith the Lord God.
No ka mea, ho hoao ana keia, a heaha la hoi ke hoowahawaha aku ia i ke kookoo? aole e koe aku ia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
14 Thou therefore, O son of man, prophesy, and strike thy hands together, and let the sword be doubled, and let the sword of the slain be tripled: this is the sword of a great slaughter, that maketh them stand amazed,
E wanana hoi oe, e ko keiki a ke kanaka, a e pai pu i kou mau lima, i ekolu hoi ka papalua ana o ka pahikaua, he pahikaua a ka poe i lukuia: o ka pahikaua ia a ka poe kanaka nui i pepehiia ka i hoopuni ia.
15 And languish in heart, and that multiplieth ruins. In all their gates I have set the dread of the sharp sword, the sword that is furbished to glitter, that is made ready for slaughter.
Ua hoonoho au i ka maka o ka pahikaua e ku e i ko lakou mau ipuka a pau i maule ka naau, a i hoonuiia ka hiolo ana: Auwe ua hoohualiia ia, ua unuhiia uo ka luku ana.
16 Be thou sharpened, go to the right hand, or to the left, which way soever thou hast a mind to set thy face.
E hui pu, e hele oe ma kekahi aoao, ma ka lima akau paha ma ka lima hema paha, ma kahi i ku pono ai kou alo.
17 And I will clap my hands together, and will satisfy my indignation: I the Lord have spoken.
Owau no kekahi e pai pu i ko'u mau lima, a e hoomaha au i ko'u ukiuki: na'u na Iehova i olelo iho.
18 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
19 And thou son of man, set thee two ways, for the sword of the king of Babylon to come: both shall come forth out of one land: and with his hand he shall draw lots, he shall consult at the head of the way of the city.
O oe hoi, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoomaopopo oe i na ala elua, e hele mai ai ka pahikaua a ke alii o Babulona; e hele pu mai laua a elua mai ka aina hookahi mai; e koho oe i kekahi wahi, e koho ma ke poo o ke ala e hiki ai i ke kulanakauhale.
20 Thou shalt make a way that the sword may come to Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and to Juda unto Jerusalem the strong city.
Hoomaopopo i ke ala e hiki mai ai ka pahikaua i Raba no na mamo a Amona, a ia Iuda iloko o Ierusalema ka mea i paa i ka paia.
21 For the king of Babylon stood in the highway, at the head of two ways, seeking divination, shuffling arrows: he inquired of the idols, and consulted entrails.
No ka mea, ua ku iho la ke alii o Babulona ma ka mahele ana o ke alanui, ma ke poo o na ala elua, e kilokilo ai; hoonaueue oia i kana mau pua, kukakuka no ia me na kii, ua nana no ia i ke akepaa.
22 On his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in slaughter, to lift up the voice in howling, to set engines against the gates, to cast up a mount, to build forts.
Ma kona lima akau ke kilokilo ana no Ierusalema, e hoonoho ai i na hipa kane wawahi, e hoohamama i ka waha no ka luku ana, e hookiekie hoi i ka leo i ka hooho ana, e hoonoho ku e i na hipa kane wawahi ma na ipuka, e hookumu hoi i ka puu, a kukulu hoi i ka pakaua.
23 And he shall be in their eyes as one consulting the oracle in vain, and imitating the leisure of sabbaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity that they may be taken.
E lilo hoi ia me he kilokilo wahahee ana i ko lakou maka, i na mea i hoohiki ai ma ka berita ia lakou; aka, e hoomanao oia i ka hewa e paa lakou i ka hopuia.
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have remembered your iniquity, and have discovered your prevarications, and your sins have appeared in all your devices: because, I say, you have remembered, you shall be taken with the hand.
Nolaila, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; No ka mea, no oukou i hoomanaoia'i ko oukou hewa, i ka hoikeia o ko oukou lawehala ana, i ikeia hoi ka oukou hana ana a pau, no ko oukou hoomanaoia'e, e hopuia oe me ka lima.
25 But thou profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come that hath been appointed in the time of iniquity:
A o oe, e ke alii aia hewa o ka Iseraela, ua hiki mai kona la e oki ai ka hewa.
26 Thus saith the Lord God: Remove the diadem, take off the crown: is it not this that hath exalted the low one, and brought down him that was high?
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E lawe oe i ka lei alii, a e hemo hoi ke korona: aole ia mea hookahi; e hookiekie ae i ka mea haahaa, a e hoohaahaa i ka mea kiekie.
27 I will shew it to be iniquity, iniquity, iniquity: but this was not done till he came to whom judgment belongeth, and I will give it him.
Na'u no e hookahuli, hookahuli, hookahuli ia mea; a e ole ia, a hiki mai ka mea ia ia ka pono, a e haawi au ia nona.
28 And thou son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach, and thou shalt say: sword, O sword, come out of the scabbard to kill, be furbished to destroy, and to glitter,
A o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana oe a e olelo aku no na mamo a Amona, a me ko lakou hoino, e olelo hoi oe, O ka pahikaua, na unuhiia ka pahikaua; ua hoohualiia no ka luku ana, e hoopau ai no kona olinolmo ana.
29 Whilst they see vain things in thy regard, and they divine lies: to bring thee upon the necks of the wicked that are wounded, whose appointed day is come in the time of iniquity.
I ko lakou ike ana i ka mea hoopunipuni nou, a i ko lakou kilokilo ana i ka wahahee, e haawi ia oe maluna o na a-i o ka poe i pepehiia, o ka poe hewa, ua hiki mai ko lakou la e oki ai ko lakou hewa.
30 Return into thy sheath. I will judge thee in the place wherein thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.
E hoihoi anei au ia mea iloko o kona wahi? Ma kahi i hanaia'i oe, a ma ka aina i hanauia'i oe, malaila au e hoopai aku ai ia oe:
31 And I will pour out upon thee my indignation: in the fire of my rage will I blow upon thee, and will give thee into the hands of men that are brutish and contrive thy destruction.
E ninini aku hoi au i kuu inaina maluua ou, a e puhi aku au ia oe me ke ahi o ko'u huhu ana, a e haawi aku au ia oe iloko o ka lima o na kanaka lokoino, a he akamai i ka luku aku.
32 Thou shalt be fuel for the fire, thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, thou shalt be forgotten: for I the Lord have spoken it.
E lilo no oe i wahie no ke ahi, mawaenakonu hoi o ka aina kou koko; aole hoi oe e hoomanao hou ia; no ka mea, na'u na Iehova ia i olelo ai.
