Exodus 32
1 When the people realized how long Moses was taking before he came back down the mountain, they went together to see Aaron. They told him, “Get up! Make some gods for us who can lead us because this man Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt—we don't know what's happened to him!”
A IKE aku la na kanaka i ko Mose hookaulua ana i ka iho mai, mai ka mauna mai, akoakoa iho la na kanaka io Aarona la, olelo ae la ia ia, E ku oe, e hana i akua no kakou, i mea hele mamua o kakou: no ka mea, o ua Mose la, ke kanaka nana kakou i alakai mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai; aole kakou ike i kona wahi i lilo aku ai.
2 “Bring to me the gold earrings that your wives, sons, and daughters are wearing,” Aaron replied.
I mai la o Aarona ia lakou, E uhai oukou i na apo gula pepeiao, i na mea iloko o na pepeiao o ka oukou wahine, a me ka oukou keikikane, a me ka oukou kaikamahine, a e lawe mai io'u nei.
3 So everyone took off the gold earrings they were wearing and brought them to Aaron.
Uhai iho la na kanaka a pau i na gula pepeiao, i na mea iloko o ko lakou pepeiao, a lawe mai io Aarona la.
4 He took what they gave him and using a molding tool cast an idol in the shape of a bull calf. They shouted out, “Israel, these are the gods that brought you out of the land of Egypt.”
Lawe iho la ia, mai ko lakou lima aku, a koli iho la ia mea i ke kila, a hana ae la i bipi keiki i hooheheeia; a olelo iho la lakou, Eia kou akua, e ka Iseraela, nana oe i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the golden calf and shouted out, “Tomorrow will be a festival to honor the Lord!”
A ike aku la o Aarona, hana iho la ia i kuahu imua i ke alo o ia mai; hea aku la o Aarona, i aku la, E, I apopo, he ahaaina na Iehova.
6 Early the next day they sacrificed burnt offerings and presented peace offerings. Then they sat down to celebrate with eating and drinking. Then they got up to dance, and it became like an orgy.
A ia la iho, ala koke ae la lakou, a mohai aku la i mohaikuni, a lawe mai no hoi i mohaihoomalu; a noho iho la na kanaka e ai, a e inu, a ku ae la iluna e paani.
7 Then the Lord told Moses, “Get back down, because your people that you brought out of Egypt are acting immorally.
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, O hele oe, e iho ilalo; ua hana hewa kou poe kanaka au i lawe mai ai, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
8 They have been so quick to abandon the way I ordered them to follow. They have made a metal bull calf idol for themselves, bowing before it in worship and offering sacrifices to it. They're saying, ‘These are the gods that brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”
Ua huli koke ae lakou, mai ke ala aku a'u i kauoha aku ai ia lakou; ua hana lakou i bipi keiki i hooheheeia no lakou, ua hoomana lakou ia mea, a ua mohai hoi lakou ia ia, me ka i ana aku, E ka Iseraela e, eia kou akua, nana oe i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
9 “I know what these people are like,” the Lord continued saying to Moses. “They are so rebellious!
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Ua ike no au i keia poe kanaka, aia hoi, he poe kanaka a-i oolea:
10 Now leave me! I am angry with them—let me finish them off! I will make you into a great nation.”
Ano hoi, e ae mai oe ia'u, i wela loa ko'u huhu ia lakou, i hoopau wau ia lakou; a na'u no e hana aku ia oe i lahuikanaka nui.
11 But Moses pleaded with the Lord his God, saying, “Why are you angry with the people you brought out of the land of Egypt with tremendous power and great strength?
Nonoi aku la o Mose ma ke alo o Iehova, o kona Akua, i aku la, E Iehova, no ke aha la i wela ai kou huhu i kou poe kanaka au i lawe mai ai, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, me ka mana nui, a me ka lima ikaika?
12 Why should the Egyptians be able to say, ‘He brought them out with the evil purpose of killing them in the mountains, wiping them off the face of the earth’? Turn from your fierce anger. Please change your mind over the threat against your people.
No ke aha la e olelo mai ai ko Aigupita, me ka i ana mai, No ka hewa i lawe mai ai oia ia lakou, e pepehi ia lakou ma na mauna, a e luku aku ia lakou, mai ka maka aku o ka honua? E maliu mai oe mai ka wela mai o kou huhu, a e aloha mai oe no ka hewa e hiki mai ana i kou poe kanaka.
13 Remember you swore a promise your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, telling them, ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven, and give you all the land I promised to them, and they shall own it forever.’”
E hoomanao oe ia Aberahama, ia Isaaka, ia Iseraela, i kau mau kauwa, i kou hoohiki ana ia lakou ma ou iho; i kau olelo ana mai ia lakou, E hoonui ana au i ka oukou ohana e like me na hoku o ka lani; a o keia aina a pau a'u i olelo ai, na'u no e haawi aku no ka oukou poe mamo, a e noho mau loa lakou ma ia aina.
14 The Lord changed his mind over the disaster he threatened to cause his people.
Maliu mai la no o Iehova mai ka hoino mai ana i manao ai e hana mai i kona poe kanaka.
15 Moses turned and went down the mountain, carrying the two stone tablets of the Law written on both sides.
Huli mai la o Mose, a iho mai la, mai ka mauna mai, aia hoi, maloko o kona lima na pohaku papa kanawai elua: ua palapalaia na papa ma na aoao elua, ua palapalaia no ma kahi aoao, a ma kahi aoao.
16 God had made the tablets, and God had engraved the writing himself.
O ia mau papa ka ke Akua i hana'i, a o ka palapala, na ke Akua ka palapala, ua kahakahaia maloko o na papa.
17 When Joshua heard all the shouting from the camp, he said to Moses, “It sounds like fighting in the camp!”
A lohe o Iosua i ka walaau o kanaka i ko lakou uwauwa ana, i ae la ia ia Mose, He walaau kaua ka ma kahi e hoomoana'i.
18 But Moses replied, “These are not the shouts of victory or of defeat. What I'm hearing is people partying!”
I mai la kela, Aole ia he leo no ka poe uwauwa lanakila, aole hoi ka leo o ka poe uwe i ke pio ana; aka o ka walaau mele ka'u e lohe nei.
19 As he approached the camp he saw the bull calf idol and the dancing. He got so angry that he threw down the stone tablets and smashed them there at the foot of the mountain.
A kokoke ia i hiki i kahi o lakou i hoomoana'i, ike aku la ia i ka bipi keiki, a me ka haa ana: ulu puni iho la ko Mose huhu, kiola aku la ia i na papa, mai kona lima aku, a naha iho la laua malalo iho o ka mauna.
20 He took the bull calf and burned it, and ground it into powder. Then he mixed this with water and made the Israelites drink it.
Lawe iho la ia i ka bipi keiki a lakou i hana'i, a puhi aku la i ke ahi, a hoowali iho la a okaoka, a lulu aku la ia maluna o ka wai, a hoohainu aku la i na mamo a Iseraela i ka wai.
21 Then Moses asked Aaron, “What did these people do to you that you made them sin so badly?”
I aku la o Mose ia Aarona, Heaha ka mea a keia poe kanaka i hana'i ia oe, i hooili mai ai oe i keia hewa nui maluna o lakou.
22 “Please don't get angry with me, my lord,” Aaron replied, “You yourself know how liable these people are to do evil.
I mai la o Aarona, Mai ulu puni mai ka huhu o kuu haku, ua ike no oe i ka poe kanaka, na paa lakou ma ke kolohe.
23 They told me, ‘Make some gods for us who can lead us because this man Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt—we don't know what's happened to him!’
No ka mea, olelo mai lakou ia'u, E hana oe i na akua no kakou, e hele aku imua o kakou; no ka mea, o ua Mose nei, ke kanaka nana kakou i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, aole kakou i ike i kona wahi i lilo aku ai.
24 So I said to them, ‘Anybody who has gold jewelry, take it off and give it to me.’ I threw the gold into the furnace and out came this bull calf.”
I aku la au ia lakou, O ka mea ia ia kekahi gula, e uhai oia ia mea. Haawi mai no hoi lakou ia'u: alaila hahao aku la au ia mea iloko o ke ahi, a puka mai la mawaho ua bipi keiki nei.
25 Moses saw the people going completely wild because Aaron had let them, and that this had brought ridicule on them from their enemies.
A ike mai la o Mose i na kanaka, ua haunaele; (no ka mea, ua hoohaunaele o Aarona ia lakou i ka lukuia imua o ko lakou poe enemi: )
26 So he went and stood at the entrance to the camp, and shouted out, “Whoever is on the Lord's side, come and join me!” All the Levites gathered around him.
Alaila ku mai la o Mose ma ka puka o kahi a lakou i hoomoana'i, i mai la, Owai ka mea ma ko Iehova aoao? e hele mai ia io'u nei. A akoakoa pu mai la na mamo a pau a Levi io na la.
27 Moses told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says: Each of you strap on a sword. Then go all through the camp from one end to the other and kill your brothers, friends, and neighbors.”
I mai la ia ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova o ke Akua o Iseraela penei, E kau na kanaka a pau i na pahikaua a lakou ma ko lakou aoao, e hele ae lakou a hoi mai, ma kela ipuka a keia ipuka o kahi hoomoana, a e pepehi ke kanaka i kona hoahanau, a o ke kanaka i kona makamaka, a o ke kanaka i kona hoalauna.
28 The Levites did what Moses had told them, and that day around 3,000 men were killed.
Hana iho la na mamo a Levi e like me ka olelo a Mose: a haule iho la ia lakou ia la na kanaka ekolu paha tausani.
29 Moses told the Levites, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to the Lord because you took action against your sons and brothers. Today you have gained a blessing for yourselves.”
No ka mea, ua olelo mai o Mose, E hoolaa oukou ia oukou iho no Iehova i keia la, o ke kanaka maluna o kana keiki a maluna o kona hoahanau; i hoomaikai mai kela ia oukou i keia la.
30 The following day Moses spoke to the people, saying, “You have sinned very badly. But now I will go up to the Lord. Maybe I can get him to forgive your sin.”
A ia la iho, i mai la o Mose i na kanaka, Ua lawehala loa oukou; ke pii aku nei no hoi au io Iehova la; e hana paha wau i mea e kalaia mai ai ko oukou hewa.
31 So Moses went back to the Lord. He said, “Please—the people have sinned very badly by making gods of gold for themselves.
Hoi aku la o Mose io Iehova la, i aku la, Auwe hoi, ua lawehala loa keia poe kanaka, a ua hana i akua gula no lakou.
32 But now, if you will, forgive their sin. Otherwise just blot me out of the scroll in which you keep your records.”
Ano hoi, ina paha e kala mai oe i ko lakou hewa?; aka, i ole, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe e holoi mai oe ia'u, mai ka buke au i palapala ai.
33 But the Lord replied to Moses, “It's those who sinned against me who will be blotted out of my scroll.
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, O ka mea i lawehala i ka'u, e holoi aku au ia ia, mai ka'u buke aku.
34 Now go and lead the people to the place I told you about. Look, my angel will go before you, but at the time I decide to punish, I will punish them for their sin.”
No ia mea, o hele oe, e alakai ia poe kanaka i kahi a'u i olelo ai ia oe: aia hoi, e hele no ko'u anela mamua ou, aka hoi, i ko'u la e hoopai ai, e hoopai aku au i ko lakou hewa maluna o lakou.
35 The Lord brought a plague on the people because they made Aaron make the bull calf.
Hahau mai la Iehova i na kanaka no ka lakou hana ana i ka bipi keiki a Aarona i hana'i.
