< Ezekiel 30 >
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 “You human, prophesy [about what will happen to Egypt]. Say, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “Weep and wail [DOU], because terrible things will happen some day.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana, a e olelo aku, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E auwe oukou, auwe ka la!
3 That day is near, the day when I, Yahweh, [will punish people]; it will be a day of [dark] clouds and disaster for [many] nations.
No ka mea, ua kokoke mai ka la, kokoke mai ka la o Iehova, ka la paapu i ke ao; e lilo ia i manawa no na lahuikanaka.
4 [An enemy army] [PRS] will come to attack Egypt with their swords, and there will be great distress [among the people] in Ethiopia. [Many] people will be killed in Egypt; everything valuable will be taken away, and [even] the foundations [of the buildings] will be torn down.
E hiki ae no hoi ka pahikaua maluna o Aigupita, a e nui auanei ka weliweli maluna o Aitiopa, i ka wa e haule ai ka poe i pepehiia ma Aigupita, a e lawe aku ai hoi lakou i kona lehulehu a wawahiia kona mau kumu ilalo.
5 [Soldiers of] Ethiopia, Libya, Lydia, and from all of Arabia, and [all the other] groups who are their allies, will be killed in the battles.”
O Aigupita, a me Puta, a me Ludia, a me na kanaka huipuia a pau, a me Kuba, a me na kanaka o ka aina iloko o ke kuikahi, o lakou ke haule pu me lakou, ma ka pahikaua.
6 This is what [I], Yahweh say: “The allies of Egypt will be defeated, and the power that [the people of Egypt] are proud of will end. From Migdol [city in the north] to Aswan [city in the south], the soldiers of Egypt will be killed by their enemies’ swords”; [that is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Ke i mai nei Iehova penei; E haule no hoi ka poe kokua ia Aigupita, a e iho iho ka haaheo o kona ikaika ilalo; mai ka halekiai o Seena e haule ai lakou ma ka pahikaua iloko ona, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
7 Egypt will become the most deserted country in the world, and its cities will be ruined, surrounded by ruined cities [in nearby nations].
A e neoneo lakou iwaena o na aina neoneo, a iwaena hoi kona mau kulanakauhale o na kulanakauhale i hooneoneoia.
8 Then, when I cause [everything in] Egypt to be burned in fires, and all their allies are defeated, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
A e ike lakou owau no Iehova, aia hoonoho au i ke ahi iloko o Aigupita, a e pau hoi kona mau kokua i ka uhaiia.
9 At that time, I will send messengers to go [swiftly up the Nile River] in boats to cause the people of Ethiopia who (are complacent/confident/think that nothing terrible will happen to them) to become afraid. They will be terrified [PRS] when Egypt is destroyed; and it will soon be that time!”
Ia la no e holo aku na elele mai o'u aku nei ma na moku e hoomakau i ko Aitiopa poe nanea, a e hiki ae ka eha nui maluna o lakou, e like me ia i na la o Aigupita; no ka mea, eia'e, ke hele mai ia.
10 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “By the power of [MTY] of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon I will get rid of very many people in Egypt.
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, E hooki au i ka lehulehu o Aigupita ma ka lima o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona.
11 Nebuchadnezzar and his army, whose soldiers are extremely ruthless, will come to destroy Egypt. They will pull out their swords and fill Egypt with [the corpses of] those whom they have killed.
Oia, a me kona poe kanaka me ia, o na mea e weliweli ai o na lahuikanaka, e laweia'e lakou e hokai i ka aina; a e unuhi ku e ae lakou i ka lakou mau pahikaua ia Aigupita, a e hoopaapu i ka aina me ka poe i pepehiia.
12 I will cause the Nile [River] to become dry, and I will sell the nation to evil men. By the power [MTY] of foreigners I will ruin the land and everything that is in it. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have predicted it.”
E hoomaloo aku au i na muliwai, a e kuai lilo aku i ka aina iloko o ka lima o ka poe hewa; a e hooneoneo aku au i ka aina a me ko laila a pau ma ka lima o na malihini: na'u na Iehova i olelo aku.
13 This is [also] what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “I will cause the idols and statues [of idols] [DOU] in Memphis [city] to be destroyed. No longer will there be a king in Egypt, and all over the land, people will be terrified. I will cause [the people of] Egypt to be very afraid.
Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, E hokai au i na akuakii, a e hooki au i na kii mai loko aku o Nopa; aole loa hoi ke alii hou o ka aina Aigupita; a haawi au i ka makau ma ka aina Aigupita.
14 I will cause the Pathros [area in southern Egypt] to be abandoned. I will start fires in Zoan [city in northeast Egypt] and punish [the people in] Thebes, [the capital of southern Egypt].
E hooneoneo hoi au ia Paterosa, a e haawi i ke ahi iloko o Zoana, a e hoopai hoi maloko o No.
15 I will pour out my punishment [MTY] on [the fortress in] Pelusium [at the eastern end of Egypt], and I will get rid of very many people in Thebes.
E ninini hoi au i kuu ukiuki maluna o Sina, ka ikaika o Aigupita; a e oki aku au i ka lehulehu o No.
16 I will burn Egypt by fires; [the people in] Pelusium will suffer severe pain. [Enemies] will conquer Thebes, and [the people in] Memphis will constantly be terrified.
A e haawi aku au i ke ahi iloko o Aigupita, he eha nui auanei ko Sina, a e hookaawaleia'e o No, a e pilikia hoi o Nopa i kela la i keia la.
17 [Many] young men in Heliopolis and Bubastis [cities in northern Egypt] will be killed by [their enemies] swords, and the others [from those cities] will be captured and taken [to Babylon].
A e haule ma ka pahikaua ko Avena a me ko Pibeseta poe kanaka ui, a e hele laua i ke pio ana.
18 It will be a dark day [of destruction] at Tahpenes [city in northeast Egypt] when I cause the power [MET] of Egypt to end; that country will no longer be proud of being strong. [It will be as though] a dark cloud will cover Egypt, because the people of its villages will be captured and forced to go [to Babylon].”
Ma Tehapenesa e hoopouliia ka la i ka wa e uhaki ai au ilaila i na auamo o Aigupita; a e oki ka hanohano o kona ikaika iloko ona: a oia hoi, e uhi mai kahi ao maluna ona, a e hele kana mau kaikamahine i ke pio ana.
19 That is how I will punish Egypt, and people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
A e hoopai au ma Aigupita; a a e ike lakou, owau no Iehova.
20 Almost eleven years [after we had been taken to Babylon], on the seventh day of the first month [of that year], Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
Eia hoi keia, i ka umikumamakahi o ka makahiki, i ka malama mua, i ka la ahiku o ka malama, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
21 “You human, I [have enabled the army of Nebuchadnezzar to defeat the army of] the King of Egypt. [It is as though] I have broken one of the arms of the King of Egypt, and it has not been bandaged in order that it could be healed, and it has not been put in splints in order that [after it heals] the arm will be strong [enough] to hold a sword.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua uhaki au i ka lima o Parao ke alii o Aigupita, aole ia e wahiia e hoolaia'i, e kau i ka lole wili e wahi ai ia mea, e hooikaika e paa ai i ka pahikaua.
22 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘I am the enemy of the King of Egypt. [I will completely destroy the power of Egypt; it is as though] now I will break both of the king’s arms, the good/strong one and the broken one, and cause the sword to fall from his hand.
Nolaila, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, Eia hoi, ke ku e nei au ia Parao ke alii o Aigupita, a e uhai au i kona mau lima, i ka mea ikaika a me ka mea i uhaiia; a e hoohaule iho au i ka pahikaua mai loko iho o kona lima.
23 I will cause the people of Egypt to be scattered among the nations [DOU].
A e hoopuehu au i ko Aigupita iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e lulu aku ia lakou ma na aina.
24 [It is as though] I will strengthen the arms of the King of Babylon and put a sword in his hand, and [as though] I will break the arms of the king of Egypt, and he will groan in front of the King of Babylon like [SIM] a soldier who is wounded and about to die.
A e hooikaika au i na lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e haawi i ka'u pahikaua iloko o kona lima; aka, e uhai au i na lima o Parao, a e auwe oia imua ona me ka auwe ana o ka mea eha e make ai.
25 I will cause the power [MTY] of the King of Babylon to become greater, and the power of the king of Egypt will be useless [MET]. When that happens, when I give power to the army of the King of Babylon, they will use that power to attack Egypt.
Aka, e hooikaika au i na lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e haule na lima o Parao ilalo; a e ike lakou owau no Iehova, i ka wa e haawi aku ai au i ka'u pahikaua iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e o aku oia ia maluna o ka aina Aigupita.
26 I will cause the people of Egypt to be scattered among the nations [DOU]. And when that happens, the people [of Egypt] will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do] [DOU].’”
A e hoopuehu au i ko Aigupita iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e lulu aku ia lakou ma na aina; a ike lakou owau no Iehova.
