< Ezekiel 31 >

1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
EIA hoi kekahi, i ka makahiki umikumamakahi, i ka malama kolu, i ka la mua o ka malama; hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 Son of man, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom are you like in your greatness?
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e olelo aku oe ia Parao ko Aigupita alii, a me kona lehulehu, Owai la ka mea e like ai me oe i kou nui ana?
3 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
Aia hoi, o ka Asuria, he laau kedera no Lebanona ia, he nani kona mau lala, he ululaau malumalu, he kino kiekie; aia hoi kona welau iwaena o na lala paapu.
4 The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent her little rivers to all the trees of the field.
Na na wai i hoonui ia ia, ua hookiekie ka hohonu ia ia me kona mau waikahe e kahe ana a puni kona wahi i kanuia'i, a ua hoopuka ae i kona mau kahawai liilii i na kumu laau a pau.
5 Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
Nolaila i hookiekieia'i kona kiekie, maluna o na laau a pau o ke kula, a ua hoonuiia kona mau lala, a loloa ae la kona mau lala no ka nui o kona mau wai, i kona kupu ana'e.
6 All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelled all great nations.
Maloko o kona mau lala i hana aku ai na manu a pau o ka lewa i ko lakou mau punana, a maloko iho o kona mau lala i hanau ai na holoholona a pau o ke kula i ka lakou mau keiki, a malalo iho o kona mala i noho ai na lahuikanaka nui a pau.
7 Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.
Nolaila i nani ai ia i kona nui, a me ka loloa ana o kona mau lala; no ka mea, aia kona kumu ma na wai nui.
8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like to him in his beauty.
Aole i hiki i ke kedera iloko o ka mala a ke Akua, ke hoonalo ia ia; aole like ka laau hukaa me kona mau lala, aole like ka laau pelatano me kona mau lala; aole laau iloko o ka mala a ke Akua i like me ia i kona nani.
9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.
Ua hana aku au ia ia i nani no ka nui loa o kona mau lala, i huahua hoi na laau a pau o Edena iloko o ka mala a ke Akua ia ia.
10 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have lifted up yourself in height, and he has shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
No ia mea la, ke olelo mai nei Iehova ka Haku, No kou hookiekie ana ia oe iho i kiekie; a hoopuka aku oia i kona welau iwaena o na lala paapu, a ua hookiekie kona naau i kona kiekie;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
Nolaila i haawi aku au ia ia i ka lima o ka mea mana no na lahuikanaka, e hana no oia ia ia; ua kipaku aku au ia ia no kona hewa.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: on the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
A o na malihini, na mea weliweli o na lahuikanaka, ua oki aku lakou ia ia, a waiho aku ia ia ma na mauna, a ua haule kona mau lala ma na awawa a pau, a ua hakihaki kona mau lala ma na muliwai o ka honua, a iho iho la na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua mai kona malu iho, a ua haalele ia ia.
13 On his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be on his branches:
A e noho na manu a pau o ka lewa maluna o kona puu opala, a me na holoholona o ke kula maluna o kona mau lala;
14 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered to death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the middle of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
I mea e hookiekie ole ai kekahi o na laau a pau ma na wai, no ko lakou kiekie, aole hoi e hoopuka i ko lakou welau mawaena o na lala paapu, aole hoi e ku iluna ko lakou mau laau i ko lakou kiekie, o na mea a pau e inu ana i ka wai; no ka mea, ua haawiia lakou a pau i ka make i ko lalo mau wahi o ka honua iwaena o na keiki a kanaka, me na mea e iho ana i ka lua.
15 Thus says the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol h7585)
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; i ka la i iho ai ia i ka luakupapau, hana hoi au e kanikau; ua uhi au i ka hohonu nona, a ua kaohi au i kona mau muliwai, a ua hoopaaia na wai nui; a hana aku au e kanikau o Lebauona nona, a maule ae la na laau a pau o ke kula nona. (Sheol h7585)
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
Ua hoohaalulu au i na lahuikanaka i ka halulu ana o kona haule ana, i kuu wa i hoolei iho ai au ia ia i ka po, me ka poe e iho ana i ka lua; a e oluolu pu na laau a pau i ko lalo wahi o ka honua, na laau a pau o Edena, o na mea i waeia a he maikai o Lebanona, a me na mea a pau e inuwai ana. (Sheol h7585)
17 They also went down into hell with him to them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that dwelled under his shadow in the middle of the heathen. (Sheol h7585)
E iho iho la lakou me ia i ka po, i ka poe i pepehiia me ka pahikaua, a o ka poe i lilo i lima nona, a noho iho la malalo iho o kona malu, iwaenakonu o na lahuikanaka. (Sheol h7585)
18 To whom are you thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shall you be brought down with the trees of Eden to the nether parts of the earth: you shall lie in the middle of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, says the Lord GOD.
Owai la kou mea e like ai i ka nani, a me ka nui iwaena o na laau o Edena? aka, e hooiho oe ilalo me na laau o Edena i ko lalo mau wahi o ka honua: a e moe oe iwaena o ka poe okipoepoe ole ia me ka poe i pepehiia me ka pahikaua. Oia hoi, o Parao a me kona lehulehu a pau, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
