Ezekiel 44
1 The man took me back to the outside gate of the sanctuary that faced to the 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 The Lord told me, “This gate will stay shut. It is not be opened. No one is allowed to come in through it, because the Lord, the God of Israel, has passed through it. So it will stay 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 The prince himself is permitted to come and sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the Lord. He is to come in through the gateway's porch and leave 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 The man took me to the front of the Temple through the north gate. As I looked, I saw the glory of the Lord filling his Temple, and I fell with my face to the ground.
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 told me, “Son of man, concentrate! Keep your eyes open! Listen carefully to everything I tell you about all the regulations and laws of the Lord's Temple. Pay close attention to the Temple entrance and 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 those rebels, the people of Israel, that this is what the Lord God says: I've had more than enough of all your disgusting sins, people 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 As well as all your other offensive practices, you invited unconverted, pagan foreigners to come into my sanctuary. You made my Temple unclean even while you offered food to me, the fat and the blood. You broke my agreement.
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 In addition you have not taken care of my sanctuary as you were required to, but instead you employed others to look after 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 unconverted, pagan foreigners are allowed to enter my sanctuary—not even a foreigner who lives with 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 The Levites who abandoned me when Israel turned from worshiping me and went off to follow their idols will experience the consequences of their sins.
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 However, they will serve in my sanctuary, supervising the Temple gates and working in the Temple. They will slaughter the burnt offerings and sacrifices brought by the people and be there to serve 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 But because they served the people in front of their idols and encouraged the people of Israel to sin, I held up my hand to promise on oath that they would experience the consequences of their sin, 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 are not allowed to come near me to serve me as priests, and they are not to touch anything I regard as holy or most holy. They will have to experience the shame of the disgusting sins they 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 However, I will put them in charge of all Temple work and everything that needs to be done there.
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 It is the Levitical priests, descended from Zadok and who took care of my sanctuary when the Israelites abandoned me, are the ones to come near to me and minister before me. They will stand in my presence 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 Only they are allowed to enter my sanctuary and approach my table to minister before me. They will do what I say.
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 come in through the entrances of the inner courtyard, they shall wear linen garments. They must not wear any woolen clothes when they serve at the entrances of the inner courtyard 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 shall wear linen turbans on their heads and linen underwear. They are not to wear anything that makes them sweat.
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 to the outer court where the people are, they must take off their priestly clothes they wore when they were serving, and leave them in the holy rooms. They are to put on other clothes so that they don't carry holiness to the people with their clothing.
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 are not permitted to shave their heads or let their hair grow long; they must have a proper haircut.
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 shall drink wine before he enters the inner courtyard.
Aole hoi e inu kekahi kahuna i ka waina i ko lakou komo ana i ka pahale maloko.
22 They are not to marry a woman who is a widow or divorced; they can only marry a virgin of Israelite descent, 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 what is holy and what is common, and explain to them how to distinguish between what is clean and what is 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 They are to serve as judges in legal cases, and base their decisions on my laws. They are to follow my instructions and regulations regarding all my regular religious festivals, and they are to 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 make himself unclean by going near a dead body. However, if it's his father, mother, son, daughter, brother, or a sister that's not married, then 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 Afterwards, once he is purified, he must wait for seven days.
A mahope o kona hoomaemaeia, e helu lakou i na la ehiku nona.
27 Then when he enters the sanctuary, going into the inner courtyard and ministering there in the sanctuary, he has to 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 Regarding their share of the land, I will take care of them. You are not to give them any property in Israel, because I will provide for them.
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 are to eat the grain offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings. Everything brought by the people of Israel and dedicated to the Lord will be theirs.
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 all your offerings are for the priests. You shall give the first loaf you bake to the priest, so that your home may be blessed.
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 are not permitted to eat any bird or animal found dead or killed 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.
