Ezekiel 17
1 And the worde of the Lord came vnto mee, saying,
HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 Sonne of man, put foorth a parable and speake a prouerbe vnto the house of Israel,
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e nane aku oe i ka nane, a e olelo nane i ka ohana a Iseraela.
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord God, The great eagle with great wings, and long wings, and ful of fethers, which had diuers colours, came vnto Lebanon, and tooke the highest branch of the cedar,
A e olelo aku hoi ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; He aeto nui, me na eheu nui loa, paapu i na hulu, onionio, hele mai ia i Lebanona, a lawe oia i ka lala kiekie loa o ka laau kedera.
4 And brake off the toppe of his twigge, and caried it into the land of marchants, and set it in a citie of marchants.
Ako ae la oia i ka welau o kona mau lala opiopio, a hali ae la ia i ka aina kalepa, hoonoho hoi ia i ke kulanakauhale o ka poe kalepa;
5 Hee tooke also of the seede of the lande, and planted it in a fruitfull ground: hee placed it by great waters, and set it as a willowe tree.
Lawe hoi oia i hua o ka aina, a kanu hoi ma ka mala hua nui; waiho iho la oia ia ma ka pili wai nui, hoonoho iho la ia me he laau wilou la.
6 And it budded vp, and was like a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward it, and the rootes thereof were vnder it: so it became a vine, and it brought foorth branches, and shot foorth buds.
A ulu hoi ia a lilo ia i kumu waina palahalaha, he kino haahaa, huli ae ia kona mau lala mamuli ona, a malalo iho ona kona mau aa: a pela i lilo ia i kumu waina, a manamana ae la na lala, a opuu ae la na manamana.
7 There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers, and beholde, this vine did turne her rootes toward it, and spred foorth her branches toward it, that she might water it by the trenches of her plantation.
Aia hoi kekahi aeto nui me na eheu nui a me na hulu lehulehu; aia hoi, hoololi ae la keia kumu waina i kona mau aa io na la, a hoopuka ae la i kona mau lala io na la i hoopulu oia ia ia ma na kaha o kona mala.
8 It was planted in a good soyle by great waters, that it should bring forth branches, and beare fruite, and be an excellent vine.
Ua kanuia ma ka lepo maikai ma na wai nui; i haawi mai ai ia i na lala, a i hoohua mai ai i ka hua; a i lilo ai ia i kumu waina maikai.
9 Say thou, Thus saith the Lord God, Shall it prosper? shall he not pull vp the rootes thereof, and destroy the fruite thereof, and cause them to drie? all the leaues of her bud shall wither without great power, or many people, to plucke it vp by the rootes thereof.
E olelo oe, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku; E pomaikai anei? Aole anei e uhuki oia i kona mau aa, a e oki aku i kona mau hua, i mae iho ai ia? E mae auanei no ia ma na lau a pau o kona ulu ana'e, aole me ka mana nui, aole hoi me kanaka he nui e uhuki ai ia me na aa ona.
10 Beholde, it was planted: but shall it prosper? shall it not be dried vp, and wither? when the East winde shall touch it, it shall wither in the trenches, where it grewe.
Aia hoi, i kanuia, e pomaikai anei ia? Aole anei ia e mae loa, i ka wa e pa mai ai ka makani hikina ia ia? E mae no ia iloko o na kaha i ulu ai ia.
11 Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Hiki mai la no hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
12 Say now to this rebellious house, Know ye not, what these things meane? tell them, Behold, the King of Babel is come to Ierusalem, and hath taken the King thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babel,
E olelo, ano, i ka ohana kipi, Aole anei oukou i ike i ke ano o keia mau mea? E olelo aku hoi, Eia hoi, ua hiki mai ke alii o Babulona i Ierusalema, a ua lawe oia i kona alii a me na'lii ona, a ua alakai ia lakou me ia i Babulona;
13 And hath taken one of the Kings seede, and made a couenant with him, and hath taken an othe of him: he hath also taken the princes of the land,
A ua lawe oia i kekahi o ka poe keiki alii, a kuikahi pu ae la oia me ia; a ua lawe oia i kona hoohiki ana ma ke kuikahi; ua lawe aku hoi oia i ka poe ikaika o ka aina;
14 That the kingdome might be in subiection, and not lift it selfe vp, but keepe their couenant, and stand to it.
I haahaa ai ke aupuni, aole hoi e hiki ke ea'e iluna, aka, ma kona malama ana i kona kuikahi e mau ai ia.
15 But he rebelled against him, and sent his ambassadours into Egypt, that they might giue him horses, and much people: shall hee prosper? shall he escape, that doeth such things? or shall he breake the couenant, and be deliuered?
Ua kipi nae oia ia ia i kona hoouna ana i na elele i Aigupita, i haawi mai lakou i na lio, a i kanaka he nui no. E pomaikai anei oia? E pakele anei ka mea hana ia mau mea? A, e uhai paha oia i ke kuikahi a e hoopakeleia anei?
16 As I liue, saith the Lord God, he shall die in the middes of Babel, in the place of the King, that had made him King, whose othe he despised, and whose couenant made with him, he brake.
Ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, he oiaio, ma kahi o ke alii ka mea i hoolilo ia ia i alii, ka mea nona ka hoohiki ana ana i hoowahawaha ai, a o kona berita hoi kana i uhai aku ai, me ia mawaenakonu o Babulona e make ai ia.
17 Neither shall Pharaoh with his mightie hoste, and great multitude of people, mainteine him in the warre, when they haue cast vp mounts, and builded ramparts to destroy many persons.
Aole hoi o Parao me kona poe kaua mana, a me kona anaina nui e kokua ia ia i ke kaua, ma ka hana ana i na puu, a me na pakaua, e oki aku ai i na kanaka he nui;
18 For he hath despised the othe, and broken ye couenant (yet lo, he had giuen his hand) because he hath done all these things, he shall not escape.
I kona hoowahawaha ana i ka hoohiki ana, ma ka uhai ana i ke kuikahi, i ka wa i haawi ai oia i kona lima, a ua hana hoi oia i keia mau mea a pau, aole ia e pakele.
19 Therefore, thus sayth the Lord God, As I liue, I wil surely bring mine othe that he hath despised, and my couenant that he hath broken vpon his owne head.
Nolaila ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; Ma ko'u ola ana, oiaio, o ka hoohiki ana no'u, ana i hoowahawaha ai, a me ko'u kuikahi ana i uhai aku ai, oia ka'u e hoopai ai maluna o kona poo.
20 And I wil spread my net vpon him, and he shalbe taken in my net, and I wil bring him to Babel, and will enter into iudgement with him there for his trespas that he hath committed against me.
A e hohola au i ka'u upena maluna ona, a e hei oia i ka'u pahele; a e lawe au ia ia ma Babulona, a e hakaka au me ia ilaila, no kona hewa ana i hana hewa mai ai ia'u.
21 And all that flee from him with all his hoste, shall fall by the sword, and they that remaine, shalbe scattered towarde all the windes: and ye shall know that I the Lord haue spoken it.
A e pau kona poe auhee me ka puali ona i ka haule i ka pahikaua, a o ka poe koe, e hele liilii lakou i kela makani keia makani; a e ike oukou na'u na Iehova i olelo aku.
22 Thus saith the Lord God, I wil also take off the top of this hie cedar, and wil set it, and cut off the top of the tender plant thereof, and I wil plant it vpon an hie mountaine and great.
Ke i mai nei o Iehova ka Haku penei; Owau no kekahi e lawe i ko ka lala kiekie loa o ka laau kedera kiekie, a e hoonoho iho au ia mea; e ako hoi au mai luna mai o kona mau lala opiopio i kekahi mea palupalu, a e kanu au ia mea maluna o ka mauna kiekie i hookiekieia.
23 Euen in the hie mountaine of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughes and beare fruite, and be an excellent cedar, and vnder it shall remaine all birds, and euery foule shall dwell in the shadow of the branches thereof.
Ma ka mauna kiekie o ka Iseraela e kanu iho ai au ia, a e haawi mai ia i na lala a me ka hua, a e lilo ia i kumu kedera maikai; a malalo iho ona e noho ai na manu a pau ma kela eheu keia eheu: ma ka mala o kona mau lala e noho iho ai lakou.
24 And all the trees of the fielde shall knowe that I the Lord haue brought downe the hie tree, and exalted the lowe tree, that I haue dried vp the greene tree, and made the drie tree to florish: I the Lord haue spoken it, and haue done it.
A e ike na laau a pau o ka aina, na'u na Iehova i hoohaahaa i ka laau kiekie, a i hookiekie hoi i ka laau haahaa, a i hoomaloo i ka laau uliuli, a i hooulu ae i ka laau maloo: na'u na Iehova i olelo, a i hana aku hoi.
