Ezekiel 16
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
HIKI mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 “You human, cause the people of Jerusalem to think about their detestable behavior.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoike oe ia Ierusalema i kona mau hewa i inainaia;
3 Say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says to you people of Jerusalem: [It is as though you are a woman who] [MET] was born in the country where the Canaan people-group lived. [It is as though] [MET] your father belonged to the Amor people-group and your mother belonged to the Heth people-group.
E olelo aku, Ke i mai nei no Iehova ka Haku ia Ierusalema, O kou wahi hanau ai a me kou hanau ana, ma ka aina o Kanaana ia. He Amora kou makuakane, a he Heta kou makuwahine.
4 [It is as though] [MET] on the day that you were born, your umbilical cord was not cut, and your body was not washed in water, and it was not rubbed with salt or wrapped in strips of cloth, [like Israeli babies always are].
A i kou hanau ana, i ka la i hanau ai oe, aole i okiia kou piko, aole hoi i holoiia me ka wai i maemae; aole hoi oe i hoopaakai iki ia, aole hoi i wahi iki ia.
5 No one pitied you or acted kindly toward you by doing those things for you. Instead, [it was as though] [MET] you were thrown into a field, because on the day that you were born, you were despised {everyone despised you}.
Aohe maka i aloha ia oe, e hana aku i kahi o keia mau mea nou, e lokomaikai aku ia oe; aka, ua kiolaia'ku oe ma ke kula mawaho, i ka hoowahawahaia o kou kino, i kou la i hanauia'i.
6 Then [it was as though] [MET] I passed by and saw you lying in your own blood and kicking. And while you lay there kicking in your own blood, I said to you, “I want you to remain alive!”
A maalo ae la au ma ou la, a ike ia oe e paumaele ana i kou koko iho, i aku la au ia oe iloko o kou koko, E ola; oiaio, ua olelo aku au ia oe iloko o kou koko, E ola.
7 [It was as though] I caused you to grow up, like plants in the field grow; you grew up and became tall and became like [MET] a very beautiful jewel. [It was as though] [MET] your breasts (formed/became large), and your hair became long, although you were still naked [DOU].
Ua hoonui aku au ia oe e like me ka opuu o ke kula, a nui ae nei oe a mahuahua, a hiki oe i ka wa i maikai loa ai ke kino; ua nui na puuwaiu, a ua ulu kou lauoho, aka, ua olohelohe aku la oe, aole i uhiia.
8 When I saw you several years later, [it was as though] [MET] I saw that you were old enough to have sex [EUP]. So [it was as though] [MET] I spread the corner of my robe over [to symbolize that I would marry you], with the result that you were no longer naked. I solemnly promised [that I would marry you] and made a marriage agreement with you, and you became my wife. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say.
A i ko'u maalo ana'e ma ou la, a nana aku ia oe, o ko'u manawa, he manawa aloha no ia, a hohola aku au i ke kihi o ko'u kapa maluna, a uhi ae la i kou olohelohe; hoohiki no hoi au nou, a komo hoi iloko o ka berita me oe, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, a lilo mai oe no'u.
9 [And then it was as though] [MET] I bathed you and washed the blood from you and put ointment on your body.
Alaila holoi aku la au ia oe i ka wai; oia, ua holoi lea aku au i kou koko mai ou aku la, a kahinu aku la au ia oe me ka aila.
10 [It was as though] [MET] I put a fine linen robe on you and gave you other expensive clothes. I put an embroidered dress on you and put leather sandals on your feet.
Hoaahu aku la au ia oe me na kapa hoonionioia, a hookamaa aku ia oe me ka ili tahasa, kaei aku la au ia oe me ka olona makalii, a hoouhi ae la ia oe me ke silika.
11 [It was as though] [MET] I put bracelets on your arms and a necklace around your neck. Those things all had nice jewels fastened to them.
Kahiko aku la au ia oe me na mea e nani ai, a kau aku i na kupee ma kou mau lima, a me ke kaula lei ma kou a-i.
12 I put a gold ring in your nose and fastened earrings to your ears and put a beautiful crown on your head.
A kau aku la au i ke apo ma kou ihu, a me na apopepeiao ma kou mau pepeiao, a me ka leialii nani maluna o kou poo.
13 So [it was as though] you wore gold and silver ornaments. You had clothes made from fine (linen/white cloth) and other expensive embroidered material/cloth. You ate [bread made from] fine flour, honey, and olive oil. You became very beautiful, like [MET] a queen.
Kahikoia aku la oe me ke gula a me ke kala, a o kou kapa, he olona, he silika, me ka mea ulana onionioia; a o ka palaoa wali, a me ka meli. a me ka aila kau i ai ai. Nani loa aku la oe, a mahuahua kou pomaikai a aupuni okoa oe.
14 You were very beautiful, with the result that people in other nations heard about you, because they knew that I, Yahweh the Lord, am the one who had caused you to become very beautiful.
Laha aku la kou kaulana iwaena o na lahuikauaka no kou nani; no ka mea, ua hemolele aku la ia no kou nani a'u i kau aku ai maluna ou, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
15 But [it was as though] [MET] you realized that because people knew that you were very beautiful, you could [earn a lot of money by] becoming a prostitute. [It was as though] you had sex with [EUP] every man who came along, and they all enjoyed your beauty.
Aka, hilinai iho la oe i kou nani iho, a ua moe kolohe oe no kou kaulana, a ninini aku oe i kou moe kolohe ana maluna o kela mea keia mea e maalo ae ana; nona no ia.
16 [It was as though] you took some of your clothes to make beautifully decorated shrines, and that is where you had sex with those men. Those things should certainly never occur!
A lawe oe i kauwahi o kou mau kapa komo, a kahiko aku la i kou mau wahi kiekie me ka onionio, a malaila i moe kolohe ai oe; aole e hiki hou, aole hoi pela.
17 You took the fine gold and silver jewelry that I gave you, and you made male idols for yourself, in order to have sex with them.
A ua lawe oe i kauwahi o kou mau mea nani o ko'u gula a me kuu kala, a'u i haawi aku ai ia oe, a hana aku oe i mau kii o na kanaka nou, a moe kolohe aku me lakou.
18 You took some of your embroidered clothes to put on those idols, and you burned oil and incense in front of them [to honor them].
A lawe ae la hoi oe i kou mau kapa onionio a hoouhi aku ia lakou. A ua hoonoho oe i ko'u aila a me ka'u mea ala imua o lakou.
19 And the [bread that was made from] fine flour and the olive oil and honey that I gave to you to eat, you offered to be a fragrant sacrifice to those idols. I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that is what happened.
O ka'u ai hoi a'u i haawi aku ai ia oe, ka palaoa wali, ka aila a me ka meli a'u i hauai ai ia oe, oia kau i hoonoho ai imua o lakou i mea ala ono: pela io no hoi, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
20 And you even took your sons and daughters who were [as though they were] [MET] my children, and sacrificed them to be food for the idols. That was much worse [RHQ] than your becoming a prostitute.
A ua lawe hoi oe i kau mau keikikane, a me kau mau kaikamahine au i hanau ai na'u, a o lakou kau i kaumaha ai no lakou e pau i ka aiia. He mea uuku anei keia o kou moe kolohe ana?
21 You slaughtered [those who were like] [MET] my children, and offered them to be sacrifices to the gods!
Ua pepehi aku no oe i ka'u mau keiki, a ua hookuu ia lakou e hoohele mawaena o ke ahi no lakou.
22 All during the time when you were acting like a prostitute and doing other detestable things, you did not think about the time when [it was as though] you were very young, naked [DOU], lying in your own blood and kicking.
A iloko o kou mau mea inainaia a me kou moe kolohe ana, aole oe i hoomanao i na la o kou opiopio ana, i kou olohelohe ana, a me ka uhi ole ia, a me kou paumaele ana iloko o kou koko.
23 So I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that terrible things will happen to you. In addition to all the other wicked things that you did,
Eia hoi keia mahope iho o kau hana hewa ana a pau, (Auwe, auwe oe! wahi a Iehova ka Haku; )
24 you built a shrine to worship idols in every [city] square/plaza.
Ua hana aku hoi oe i hale hookamakama nou, a hana hoi oe i wahi kiekie ma kela alanui a me keia alanui.
25 At the beginning of every street you built a shrine, and showed people your beautiful body, offering it to have sex with every man who walked by, becoming a better known prostitute every day.
Ma kela poo, keia poo o ke ala, ua hana oe i wahi kiekie nou, ua hoolilo oe i kou nani i mea e hoowahawahaia. Ua wehe ae oe i kou mau wawae i kela mea keia mea i maalo ae. A hoonui hoi i kou moe kolohe ana.
26 [It was as though] [MET] you had sex with men from Egypt who were eager to have sex with you, men who lived near to Israel. You caused me to become very angry because you became more eager to have sex with more and more of them.
Ua moe kolohe oe me ko Aigupita kou mau hoalauna, kapoe io nui; a ua hoomahuahua i kou moe kolohe ana e hoonaukiuki mai ia'u.
27 So I punished [IDM] you and caused your enemies to capture some of your country. I enabled your greedy enemies from Philistia to defeat you; and even they were shocked because of your disgraceful behavior.
Nolaila hoi, ea, ua kikoo aku au i ko'u lima maluna ou, a ua hoemi au i kau ai, a ua haawi aku au ia oe i ka makemake o ka poe inaina ia oe, i na kaikamahine o ko Pilisetia, na mea i hilahila i kou aoao moe kolohe.
28 [It was as though] you had sex with soldiers from Assyria, too, because you always wanted more sex. And after that, you still were not satisfied.
A ua moe kolohe no hoi oe me ko Asuria, no kou ana ole ana; a ua moe kolohe oe me lakou, aole hoi oe i ana.
29 So you also had sex [with soldiers from] Babylonia, a country full of merchants/businessmen, but even that did not satisfy you.
Ua hoonui hoi oe i kou moe kolohe ana ma ka aina o Kanaana a hiki i Kaledea, aole nae oe i ana ilaila.
30 I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that when you did all those things, acting like [MET] a bold prostitute, you were showing that you were ready to do anything that you wanted to [IDM].
Pehea ka nawaliwali o kou naau? wahi a Iehova ka Haku, i kau hana ana ia mau mea, i ka hana a ka wahine moe kolohe hilahila ole;
31 When you built shrines to worship idols on every street corner and in every city square/plaza, you were not like a prostitute: Prostitutes charge money, but you refused to take money for what you did.
I kau hana i kou hale hookamakama ma ke poo o na kuamoo a pau, a hana hoi i wahi kiekie nou ma na alanui a pau; aole me he wahine hookamakama la, no kou hoowahawaha ana i ka uku;
32 You are like [MET] a woman who commits adultery: You prefer to [have sex with] strangers rather than with your husband.
Aka, me he wahine mare la e moe kolohe ana, e lalau ana i na kanaka e, aole i kana kane ponoi!
33 Prostitutes are paid, but [it is as though] you give gifts to all your lovers; you bribe them to come to you from everywhere to have sex with you.
Ua haawi lakou i na makana i na wahine hookamakama a pau; aka, ua haawi oe i kau mau makana i kau mau ipo a pau, ua hoolimalima oe ia lakou, e hele mai iou la ma kela aoao keia aoao, no kou moe kolohe ana.
34 So although you act like [MET] a prostitute, you are not like other prostitutes: No one needs to request you to have sex [EUP] with them. You are the opposite of other prostitutes; instead of them giving any money to you, you give men money to have sex with you.
He mea e iloko ou, i kou moe kolohe ana, okoa na wahine e no ka hahai ole o kekahi ia oe e moe kolohe; a no kou haawi ana i ka uku, aole hoi uku i haawiia nou; nolaila he mea e oe.
35 Therefore, [you people of] Jerusalem, who are like a prostitute [MET], listen to what I, Yahweh the Lord, am saying about you!
Nolaila, e ka wahine moe kolohe, e hoolohe i ka olelo a Iehova;
36 I say that [what you have done is as though] [MET] you took off your clothes and acted like a prostitute and had sex with men who are not your husband. [What I mean is that you have been worshiping] detestable idols, and you have murdered [MTY] your own children to be sacrifices to them.
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; No ka nininiia o kou kala keleawe, a me ka hoikeia o kou olohelohe ana, ma kou moe kolohe ana me kau mau ipo, a me ua akua kii a pau o kou mau mea inainaia, ma ke koko o kau mau keiki au i haawi ai ia lakou.
37 So [what I am going to do is as though] I will gather those who you think have loved you and those whom you hated. I will gather them around you [to attack you], and [what I will do is as though] I will strip your clothes off you, and they will see you when you are completely naked.
Nolaila, ea, e hoakoakoa au i kau mau ipo i lealea pu ai oe, a me ka poe a pau au i makemake ai, a me ka poe a pau au i hoowahawaha ai; e hoakoakoa au ia lakou e ku e ia oe a puni, a e hoike i kou olohelohe ia lakou, a e ike lakou i kou olohelohe a pau.
38 I will punish you like women who commit adultery and who murder people [MTY] are punished. I will get revenge on you and get rid of you because I am extremely angry with you.
A e hoopai aku au ia oe e like me ka hoopaiia o na wahine i uhaki i ka berita mare me ka hookahe koko; a e haawi au ia oe i ke koko o ka ukiuki a me ka lili.
39 I will allow [your enemies who you thought] loved you [IRO] to defeat you, and they will tear down your shrines. [It will be as though] they will strip off your fancy clothes and take away your fine jewelry and cause you to be completely naked [DOU].
A e haawi aku au ia oe iloko o ko lakou lima, a e hoohiolo lakou i kou hale hookamakama, e wawahi hoi i kou mau wahi kiekie: a e kaili aku lakou i kou mau kapa ko mo mai ou aku la, a e lawe aku hoi i kau mau mea nani, a e waiho ia oe e olohelohe ana me ka uhi ole ia.
40 They will bring a mob to attack you, and that mob will throw stones at you and cut you to pieces with their swords.
E lawe mai lakou i ka aha kanaka ku e ia oe, a e hailuku lakou ia oe me na pohaku, a e hou ia oe me ka lakou mau pahikaua.
41 They will burn down your houses and punish you while many women are watching. I will cause your acting like a prostitute and paying your lovers to have sex with you to end.
A e puhi lakou i kou mau hale i ke ahi, a e hooili i ka hoopai ana maluna ou imua o na wahine he nui no: a e hooki au i kou moe kolohe ana, aole hoi e haawi hou oe i ka uku.
42 Then I will no longer be angry [DOU] with you. I will stop being jealous [because of your worshiping gods other than me only].
Pela e hoomaha ai au i ko'u ukiuki ia oe, a e haalele ko'u lili ia oe, a e noho malie au aole e huhu hou.
43 You have forgotten [the wonderful things that I did for you] in previous years [MET]. You have caused me to become extremely angry because of all the [evil things] that you have done. In addition to all the other detestable things that you did, you committed many sexual sins. So I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that I will punish you [IDM] for doing those things.
No ka mea, aole oe i hoomanao i na la o kou opiopio ana, a ua hoonaukiuki mai oe ia'u ma keia mau mea a pau: e uku aku au ea, i kou aoao, maluna o kou poo, wahi a Iehova ka Haku; aole hoi oe e hookui i keia hana haumia maluna o kau mau mea inainaia a pau.
44 People who [like to] quote proverbs will quote this proverb about you: “[behave] like their mothers [behave].”
Eia hoi, o na mea a pau e olelo ana ma na olelo nane, e lawe lakou i keia olelo nane nau, e i ana, E like me ka makuwahine, pela no kana kaikamahine.
45 You are like your mother; [it was as though] she detested her husband and her children. You are like your sisters, who also despised their husbands and their children. [It was as though] [MET] your father belonged to the Amor people-group and your mother belonged to the Heth people-group.
O ke kaikamahine no oe a kou makuwahine i hoowahawaha i kana kane a me kana mau keiki; o ka hoahanauwahine oe o kou mau hoahanauwahine i hoowahawaha i ka lakou mau kane mo ka lakou mau keiki; o kou makuwahine, o ka Heta no ia: o kou makuakaue, o ka Amora no ia.
46 And [it was as though] [MET] your older sister was Samaria, and she and her daughters lived to the north of you, and [it was as though] your younger sister was Sodom, and she and her daughters lived to the south of you.
A o kou kaikuaana, o Samaria ia, oia me kana mau kaikamahine e noho ana ma kou lima hema. A o kou kaikaina e noho ana ma kou lima akau, oia o Sodoma a me kana mau kaikamahine.
47 You not only imitated all [DOU] their detestable behavior, but you quickly became more sinful than they were.
Aole nae oe i hele ma ko lakou mau aoao, aole hoi i hana mamuli o ko lakou mau mea inainaia; aka, me he mea uuku la, ua oi aku kou haumia ana mamua o ko lakou i kou mau aoao a pau.
48 I, Yahweh the Lord, solemnly declare that as surely as I am alive, [the people who lived in] [MTY] Sodom and other nearby cities never did the detestable things that you [people in Jerusalem and other places in Judah] have done.
Ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole o Sodoma i hana, oia, aole hoi kana mau kaikamahine, e like me oe i hana ai, o oe a me kau mau kaikamahine.
49 These are the sins [the people who lived in] Sodom, who were like your sister [MET]: The people who lived there and in nearby cities were arrogant. In spite of having more food to eat than they needed, they refused to help the poor and needy [DOU] people among them.
Eia hoi ka hewa o kou kaikaina, o Sodoma, o ka haaheo, o ka piha loa i ka berena, a o ka palaualelo nui wale ka iloko ona a me kana mau kaikamahine; aole nae ia i hooikaika i ka lima o ka mea ilihune a me ka nele.
50 The people of Sodom and nearby cities [MET] were proud and did detestable things in my presence, so I got rid of them when I saw what they had been doing.
Ua hookiekie lakou, a ua hana i na mea inainaia imua o'u; nolaila lawe ae la au ia lakou mamuli o ko'u ike ana he pono.
51 Also, [the people of] Samaria did not commit half as many sins as you have committed. You have done more disgusting things than they have done. You cause the people of Samaria to appear to be good, compared to you.
Aole hoi i hana o Samaria i ka hapalua o kou mau hewa; ua hoonui aku oe i kou mau mea inainaia i ko lakou, a ua hoapono oe i kou mau hoahanau wahine, ma kou mau mea inainaia a pau au i hana'i.
52 Your sins are worse than their sins, so they seem to be less wicked than you are. So I will punish you more than I punished them. As a result, you will be ashamed and disgraced [DOU].
A o oe hoi ka mea i hooponopono i kou mau hoahanau wahine, e hali oe i kou hoinoia, no kou mau hewa au i hana aku ai i pakela aku i ko lakou; ua oi aku ko lakou pono i kou; oia, e hilahila hoi oe, a e hali oe i kou hoinoia, no kou hoapono ana i kou mau hoahanau wahine.
53 However, [some day] I will [the people of] Sodom and Samaria and the cities near to them [MET] to prosper again. And I will cause you to prosper again, too.
Aia hoihoi mai au i ko lakou pio ana, i ke pio ana o Sodoma a me kana mau kaikamahine, a me ke pio ana o Samaria a me kana mau kaikamahine, alaila, i ke pio ana o kou poe pio iwaena o lakou;
54 You will be very ashamed [DOU] of the wicked things that you have done, and that will cause the people of those cities to be encouraged.
I hali oe i kou hoinoia, a e hilahila hoi oe i na mea a pau au i hanaai, i kou hooluolu ana ia lakou.
55 [The people of] Sodom and Samaria will prosper again, and you and the people in nearby cities will prosper also.
Aia i hoi kou mau hoahanau wahine o Sodoma a me kana mau kaikamahine, i ko lakou noho kahiko ana, a hoi mai hoi o Samaria a me kana mau kaikamahine i ko lakou noho kahiko ana, alaila e hoi oe me kau mau kaikamahine i ko oukou noho kahiko ana.
56 You (sneered at/despised) [the people of] Sodom when you were proud,
No ka mea, aole oleloia o Sodoma kou kaikaina e ko'u waha, i ka la o kou haaheo ana,
57 before it was revealed that you were very wicked. And now [the people of] Edom and [the people of] Philistia all insult you and despise you.
Mamua o ka hoikeikeia'na o kou hewa, i ka wa i hoinoia'i na kaikamahine a Suria, a me na mea a pau e kokoke mai ana a puni ia, na kaikamahine a Pilisetia na mea i hoowahawaha ia oe ma kela aoao keia aoao.
58 And you are being punished for all your immoral behavior and other detestable things that you do.
O kou hewa a me kou mau mea inainaia, oia kau i hali ai, wahi a Iehova.
59 This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I will continue to punish you like you deserve to be punished, because by rejecting the agreement that I made with you, you have despised that solemn agreement that you promised to obey.
No ka mea, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E hana aku au ia oe e like me ka hana ana au a ka mea hoowahawaha i ka hoohiki ana, a i uhai hoi i ka berita.
60 But I will not forget the agreement that I made with you long ago [MET], and I will make an agreement with you that will endure forever.
Aka hoi, e hoomanao aku no au i kuu berita a'u i hana pu ai me oe i na la o kou opiopio ana, a e hoomau aku no au nou i berita mau loa.
61 Then you will think about what you have done, and you will be ashamed about those things when you welcome [the people of] Sodom and Samaria, cities which are like [MET] older and younger sisters to you people of Jerusalem. I will [put them under your control by] causing them to become like [MET] your daughters, but they will not have the same agreement that I will make with you.
Alaila e hoomanao oe i kou mau aoao, a e hilahila no hoi i ka wa e loaa ai ia oe kou mau hoahanau wahine, kou kaikuaana a me kou kaikaina; a e haawi aku au ia laua ia oe i mau kaikamahine, aole hoi ma kou berita.
62 I will establish my agreement with you, and you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
A e hoomau au i kuu berita me oe; a e ike no oe, owau no Iehova;
63 Then when I have forgiven you for all your sins, you will think about all the sins that you committed and you will be ashamed, and you will never again [boast about them], because you will be humiliated.’”
I hoomanao hoi oe, a e hilahila hoi, aole loa e ekemu hou kou waha no kou hilahila, i ka wa e laulea hou ai au ia oe i na mea a pau au i hana mai ai, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
