Pukaana 32
1 A IKE aku la na kanaka i ko Mose hookaulua ana i ka iho mai, mai ka mauna mai, akoakoa iho la na kanaka io Aarona la, olelo ae la ia ia, E ku oe, e hana i akua no kakou, i mea hele mamua o kakou: no ka mea, o ua Mose la, ke kanaka nana kakou i alakai mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai; aole kakou ike i kona wahi i lilo aku ai.
When the people saw that Moses delayed in coming down the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said to him, “Come, make us an idol that will go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.”
2 I mai la o Aarona ia lakou, E uhai oukou i na apo gula pepeiao, i na mea iloko o na pepeiao o ka oukou wahine, a me ka oukou keikikane, a me ka oukou kaikamahine, a e lawe mai io'u nei.
So Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings that are on your wives' ears, and the ears of your sons and daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Uhai iho la na kanaka a pau i na gula pepeiao, i na mea iloko o ko lakou pepeiao, a lawe mai io Aarona la.
All the people took off the golden rings that were on their ears and brought them to Aaron.
4 Lawe iho la ia, mai ko lakou lima aku, a koli iho la ia mea i ke kila, a hana ae la i bipi keiki i hooheheeia; a olelo iho la lakou, Eia kou akua, e ka Iseraela, nana oe i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
He received the gold from them, fashioned it in a mold, and made it into a molded calf. Then the people said, “Israel, this is your god who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
5 A ike aku la o Aarona, hana iho la ia i kuahu imua i ke alo o ia mai; hea aku la o Aarona, i aku la, E, I apopo, he ahaaina na Iehova.
When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before the calf and made a proclamation; he said, “Tomorrow will be a festival in Yahweh's honor.”
6 A ia la iho, ala koke ae la lakou, a mohai aku la i mohaikuni, a lawe mai no hoi i mohaihoomalu; a noho iho la na kanaka e ai, a e inu, a ku ae la iluna e paani.
The people arose early the next day and offered burnt offerings and brought fellowship offerings. Then they sat down to eat and to drink, and then got up to carouse in wild celebration.
7 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, O hele oe, e iho ilalo; ua hana hewa kou poe kanaka au i lawe mai ai, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go quickly, for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves.
8 Ua huli koke ae lakou, mai ke ala aku a'u i kauoha aku ai ia lakou; ua hana lakou i bipi keiki i hooheheeia no lakou, ua hoomana lakou ia mea, a ua mohai hoi lakou ia ia, me ka i ana aku, E ka Iseraela e, eia kou akua, nana oe i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
They have quickly left the way that I commanded them. They have molded for themselves a calf and have worshiped it and sacrificed to it. They have said, 'Israel, this is your god who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'”
9 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Ua ike no au i keia poe kanaka, aia hoi, he poe kanaka a-i oolea:
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen this people. Look, they are a stiff-necked people.
10 Ano hoi, e ae mai oe ia'u, i wela loa ko'u huhu ia lakou, i hoopau wau ia lakou; a na'u no e hana aku ia oe i lahuikanaka nui.
Now then, do not try to stop me. My anger will burn hot against them, so I will destroy them. Then I will make a great nation from you.”
11 Nonoi aku la o Mose ma ke alo o Iehova, o kona Akua, i aku la, E Iehova, no ke aha la i wela ai kou huhu i kou poe kanaka au i lawe mai ai, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, me ka mana nui, a me ka lima ikaika?
But Moses tried to calm down Yahweh his God. He said, “Yahweh, why does your anger burn against your people, whom you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
12 No ke aha la e olelo mai ai ko Aigupita, me ka i ana mai, No ka hewa i lawe mai ai oia ia lakou, e pepehi ia lakou ma na mauna, a e luku aku ia lakou, mai ka maka aku o ka honua? E maliu mai oe mai ka wela mai o kou huhu, a e aloha mai oe no ka hewa e hiki mai ana i kou poe kanaka.
Why should the Egyptians say, 'He led them out with evil intent, to kill them in the mountains and to destroy them from the face of the earth?' Turn from your burning anger and relent from this punishment on your people.
13 E hoomanao oe ia Aberahama, ia Isaaka, ia Iseraela, i kau mau kauwa, i kou hoohiki ana ia lakou ma ou iho; i kau olelo ana mai ia lakou, E hoonui ana au i ka oukou ohana e like me na hoku o ka lani; a o keia aina a pau a'u i olelo ai, na'u no e haawi aku no ka oukou poe mamo, a e noho mau loa lakou ma ia aina.
Call to mind Abraham and Isaac and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self and said to them, 'I will make your descendants as many as the stars in the heavens, and I will give to your descendants all this land of which I have spoken. They will inherit it forever.'”
14 Maliu mai la no o Iehova mai ka hoino mai ana i manao ai e hana mai i kona poe kanaka.
Then Yahweh relented from the punishment that he had said he would inflict on his people.
15 Huli mai la o Mose, a iho mai la, mai ka mauna mai, aia hoi, maloko o kona lima na pohaku papa kanawai elua: ua palapalaia na papa ma na aoao elua, ua palapalaia no ma kahi aoao, a ma kahi aoao.
Then Moses turned around and went down the mountain, carrying the two tablets of the covenant decrees in his hand. The tablets were written on both their sides, on both the front and the back.
16 O ia mau papa ka ke Akua i hana'i, a o ka palapala, na ke Akua ka palapala, ua kahakahaia maloko o na papa.
The tablets were God's own work, and the writing was God's own writing, engraved on the tablets.
17 A lohe o Iosua i ka walaau o kanaka i ko lakou uwauwa ana, i ae la ia ia Mose, He walaau kaua ka ma kahi e hoomoana'i.
When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of combat in the camp.”
18 I mai la kela, Aole ia he leo no ka poe uwauwa lanakila, aole hoi ka leo o ka poe uwe i ke pio ana; aka o ka walaau mele ka'u e lohe nei.
But Moses said, “It is not the sound of a victor, and not the sound of defeated people, but the sound of singing that I hear.”
19 A kokoke ia i hiki i kahi o lakou i hoomoana'i, ike aku la ia i ka bipi keiki, a me ka haa ana: ulu puni iho la ko Mose huhu, kiola aku la ia i na papa, mai kona lima aku, a naha iho la laua malalo iho o ka mauna.
When Moses approached the camp, he saw the calf and the people dancing. He became very angry. He threw the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the bottom of the mountain.
20 Lawe iho la ia i ka bipi keiki a lakou i hana'i, a puhi aku la i ke ahi, a hoowali iho la a okaoka, a lulu aku la ia maluna o ka wai, a hoohainu aku la i na mamo a Iseraela i ka wai.
He took the calf that the people had made, burned it, ground it to powder, and poured it into the water. Then he made the people of Israel drink it.
21 I aku la o Mose ia Aarona, Heaha ka mea a keia poe kanaka i hana'i ia oe, i hooili mai ai oe i keia hewa nui maluna o lakou.
Then Moses said to Aaron, “What did this people do to you, that you have brought such a great sin on them?”
22 I mai la o Aarona, Mai ulu puni mai ka huhu o kuu haku, ua ike no oe i ka poe kanaka, na paa lakou ma ke kolohe.
Aaron said, “Do not let your anger burn hot, my master. You know these people, how they are set on doing evil.
23 No ka mea, olelo mai lakou ia'u, E hana oe i na akua no kakou, e hele aku imua o kakou; no ka mea, o ua Mose nei, ke kanaka nana kakou i lawe mai nei, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, aole kakou i ike i kona wahi i lilo aku ai.
They said to me, 'Make us a god who will go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.'
24 I aku la au ia lakou, O ka mea ia ia kekahi gula, e uhai oia ia mea. Haawi mai no hoi lakou ia'u: alaila hahao aku la au ia mea iloko o ke ahi, a puka mai la mawaho ua bipi keiki nei.
So I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let him take it off.' They gave me the gold and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
25 A ike mai la o Mose i na kanaka, ua haunaele; (no ka mea, ua hoohaunaele o Aarona ia lakou i ka lukuia imua o ko lakou poe enemi: )
Moses saw that the people were running wild (for Aaron had let them get out of control, causing their enemies to mock them).
26 Alaila ku mai la o Mose ma ka puka o kahi a lakou i hoomoana'i, i mai la, Owai ka mea ma ko Iehova aoao? e hele mai ia io'u nei. A akoakoa pu mai la na mamo a pau a Levi io na la.
Then Moses stood at the entrance to the camp and said, “Whoever is on Yahweh's side, come to me.” All the Levites gathered around him.
27 I mai la ia ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova o ke Akua o Iseraela penei, E kau na kanaka a pau i na pahikaua a lakou ma ko lakou aoao, e hele ae lakou a hoi mai, ma kela ipuka a keia ipuka o kahi hoomoana, a e pepehi ke kanaka i kona hoahanau, a o ke kanaka i kona makamaka, a o ke kanaka i kona hoalauna.
He said to them, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: 'Let each man fasten his sword on his side and go back and forth from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and kill his brother, his companion, and his neighbor.'”
28 Hana iho la na mamo a Levi e like me ka olelo a Mose: a haule iho la ia lakou ia la na kanaka ekolu paha tausani.
The Levites did what Moses ordered. That day about three thousand of the people died.
29 No ka mea, ua olelo mai o Mose, E hoolaa oukou ia oukou iho no Iehova i keia la, o ke kanaka maluna o kana keiki a maluna o kona hoahanau; i hoomaikai mai kela ia oukou i keia la.
Moses said to the Levites, “You have been placed into Yahweh's service today, for each of you has taken action against his son and his brother, so Yahweh might give you a blessing today.”
30 A ia la iho, i mai la o Mose i na kanaka, Ua lawehala loa oukou; ke pii aku nei no hoi au io Iehova la; e hana paha wau i mea e kalaia mai ai ko oukou hewa.
The next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a very great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”
31 Hoi aku la o Mose io Iehova la, i aku la, Auwe hoi, ua lawehala loa keia poe kanaka, a ua hana i akua gula no lakou.
Moses returned to Yahweh and said, “Oh, these people have committed a great sin and made themselves an idol of gold.
32 Ano hoi, ina paha e kala mai oe i ko lakou hewa?; aka, i ole, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe e holoi mai oe ia'u, mai ka buke au i palapala ai.
But now, please forgive their sin; but if you do not, blot me out of the book that you have written.”
33 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, O ka mea i lawehala i ka'u, e holoi aku au ia ia, mai ka'u buke aku.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, that person I will blot out of my book.
34 No ia mea, o hele oe, e alakai ia poe kanaka i kahi a'u i olelo ai ia oe: aia hoi, e hele no ko'u anela mamua ou, aka hoi, i ko'u la e hoopai ai, e hoopai aku au i ko lakou hewa maluna o lakou.
So now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. See, my angel will go before you. But on the day that I punish them, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 Hahau mai la Iehova i na kanaka no ka lakou hana ana i ka bipi keiki a Aarona i hana'i.
Yahweh sent a plague on the people because they had made the calf, the one that Aaron made.
