< Malachi 2 >
1 And now, O ye Priests, this commandement is for you.
A NO hoi, e na kahuna, no oukou keia olelo paipai.
2 If yee will not heare it, nor consider it in your heart, to giue glory vnto my Name, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will euen sende a curse vpon you, and will curse your blessings: yea, I haue cursed them alreadie, because yee doe not consider it in your heart.
Ina, aole oukou e hoolohe, aole hoi e hoolilo i ko oukou naau, E hoonani i ko'u inoa, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, E hoouna auanei au i ka popilikia io oukou la, A e hoolilo au i ko oukou pomaikai ana i poino, A e hoopoino aku no au, No ka mea. aole oukou i hoopili ia i ko oukou naau iho.
3 Behold, I wil corrupt your seede, and cast dongue vpon your faces, euen the dongue of your solemne feastes, and you shall be like vnto it.
Aia hoi, e papa aku no wau i ka oukou hua, E lulu aku hoi au i ka lepo maluna o ko oukou mau maka, I ka lepo o ka oukou mau ahaaina; A e lawe aku ia ia oukou ilaila.
4 And yee shall know, that I haue sent this commandement vnto you, that my couenant, which I made with Leui, might stand, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
A e ike auanei oukou, na'u no i kauoha i keia olelo paipai ia oukou, Oia ka'u berita me Levi, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
5 My couenant was with him of life and peace, and I gaue him feare, and he feared mee, and was afraid before my Name.
O kuu berita me ia, no ke ola ia a me ka maluhia; Oia mau mea ka'u i haawi aku ai ia ia no ka weliweli ana I weliweli mai ai ia'u, A ua makau hoi imua o ko'u inoa.
6 The lawe of trueth was in his mouth, and there was no iniquitie founde in his lippes: hee walked with me in peace and equitie, and did turne many away from iniquitie.
Maloko o kona waha ka olelo oiaio, Aole no i loaa ka hewa ma kona lehelehe: Ua hele pu no ia me au ma ke aloha a me ka pono, A hoohuli ae la ia i na mea he nui mai ka hewa aku.
7 For the Priestes lippes shoulde preserue knowledge, and they shoulde seeke the Lawe at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hostes.
No ka mea, he pono no e malama na lehelehe o ke kahuna i ka naauao, A e imiia ke kanawai ma kona waha; No ka mea, oia ka elele o Iehova o na kaua.
8 But yee are gone out of the way: yee haue caused many to fall by the Lawe: yee haue broken the couenant of Leui, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Aka, ua kapae ae oukou mai ka aoao aku; Ua hoohina oukou i na mea he nui loa iloko o ke kanawai; Ua hoohlo oukou i ka berita a Levi i mea ole, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
9 Therefore haue I also made you to be despised, and vile before all the people, because yee kept not my wayes, but haue beene partiall in the Lawe.
Eia hoi, e hoolilo auanei au ia oukou, I poe wahawahaia a me ka inoino imua o na kanaka a pau, Me ka oukou i malama ole i ko'u mau aoao, A ua nana oukou ma ko ka helehelena iloko o ke kanawai.
10 Haue we not all one father? hath not one God made vs? why doe we transgresse euery one against his brother, and breake the couenant of our fathers?
Aole anei no kakou a pau ka makua hookahi? Aole anei na ke Akua hookahi kakou i hana? No ke aha la kakou e hana hoopunipuni, o kekahi hoahanau i kekahi hoahanau, Ma ka haihai ana i ka berita o ko kakou poe kupuna?
11 Iudah hath transgressed, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Ierusalem: for Iudah hath defiled the holinesse of the Lord, which hee loued, and hath maried the daughter of a strange God.
Ua hana hoopunipuni ka Iuda, A ua hanaia ka mea haumia maloko o ka Iseraela a me Ierusalema; No ka mea, ua hoohaumia ka Iuda i ka mea laa no Iehova, i ka mea ana i aloha ai, A ua mare oia i ke kaikamahine a ke akua e.
12 The Lord will cut off the man that doeth this: both the master and the seruaunt out of the Tabernacle of Iaacob, and him that offereth an offering vnto the Lord of hostes.
E hooki auanei o Iehova i kanaka e hana ana i keia mea, I ka mea kahea aku a me ka mea e o mai, mai loko mai o na halelewa o ka Iakoba, A me ka mea hoi e kaumaha ana i ka mohai na Iehova o na kaua.
13 And this haue ye done againe, and couered the altar of the Lord with teares, with weeping and with mourning: because the offering is no more regarded, neither receiued acceptably at your handes.
Eia hou kekahi a oukou i hana'i: Ua hoouhi oukou i ke kuahu o Iehova i na waimaka, A me ka uwe ana, a me ka u ana; Nolaila, aole ia e nana hou mai i ka mohai, Aole hoi e maliu oluolu mai ia mea na ko oukou lima mai.
14 Yet yee say, Wherein? Because the Lord hath beene witnesse betweene thee and the wife of thy youth, against whome thou hast transgressed: yet is shee thy companion, and the wife of thy couenant.
Ke ninau mai nei oukou, No ke aha? No ka mea, he mea ike maka o Iehova mawaena ou a o ka wahine o kou wa opiopio, I ka mea au i hana hoopunipuni aku ai: Aka, oia no kou hoalauna, o ka wahine o kau berita.
15 And did not hee make one? yet had hee abundance of spirit: and wherefore one? because he sought a godly seede: therefore keepe your selues in your spirit, and let none trespasse against the wife of his youth.
Aole anei i hana oia i hookahi? Aka, ia ia ke koena o ka Uhane. I mea aha hoi ka hookahi? I imi ai oia i ohana no ke Akua. Nolaila o malama i ko oukou naau iho, Mai hana hoopunipuni kekahi i ka wahine o kona wa opiopio.
16 If thou hatest her, put her away, sayeth the Lord God of Israel, yet he couereth the iniurie vnder his garment, saieth the Lord of hosts: therefore keepe your selues in your spirite, and transgresse not.
No ka mea, inaina aku au i ka hoohemo ana, Wahi a Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, A me ka uhi ana o kekahi i kona kapa i ke kolohe, wahi a Iehova o na kaua: Nolaila, e malama i ko oukou naau iho, o hana hoopunipuni oukou.
17 Yee haue wearied the Lord with your woordes: yet yee say, Wherein haue we wearied him? When ye say, Euery one that doeth euill, is good in the sight of the Lord, and he deliteth in them. Or where is the God of iudgement?
Ua hooluhi oukou ia Iehova i ka oukou olelo ana. Aka, ke ninau mai nei oukou, Ma ke aha la ka makou i hooluhi ai? I ka mea a oukou i olelo ai, O ka mea hana hewa, he pono ia imua o Iehova, a he lealea kona ia lakou; A o keia hoi, Auhea la ke Akua nana e hoohewa mai?
