Ezekiela 14
1 A LAILA hele mai kekahi mau luna kahiko o ka Iseraela, a noho iho imua o'u.
Then came there unto me men, of the elders of Israel, —and sat before me—
2 Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u i mai la,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
3 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua kukulu keia poe kanaka i ko lakou mau kii iloko o ko lakou mau naau, a waiho iho i ko lakou mea hoowalewale i ka hewa imua o ko lakou alo; e ninauia mai anei au e lakou?
Son of man These men have brought up their manufactured gods upon their hear, And their stumbling-block of iniquity, have they set straight before their face, —Shall I be at all enquired of by them?
4 Nolaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou, a e i aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; O kela kanaka keia kanaka o ka ohana a Iseraela i kukulu i kona mau kii iloko o kona naau, a i waiho iho i kona mea hoowalewale i ka hewa imua o kona alo, a hele mai hoi i ke kaula; na'u na Iehova e hai aku i ka mea i hele mai e like me ka nui o kona poe kii;
Therefore speak unto them and say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, Any man whatsoever of the house of Israel Who shall bring up his manufactured gods upon his heart, And set, his stumbling-block of iniquity, straight before his face, And then come in unto the prophet, I Yahweh, have myself answered him thereby. By the multitude of his manufactured gods:
5 I hopu au i ka ohana a Iseraela iloko o ko lakou naau iho, no ka mea, ua aea lakou mai o'u aku nei ma ko lakou mau kii.
To the end the house of Israel may be taken by their own hearts, —in that they have estranged themselves from me, through their manufactured gods—all of them!
6 Nolaila e olelo aku oe i ka ohana a Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E mihi oukou, a e huli mai, mai ko oukou mau kii mai, a e hoohuli i ko oukou mau maka mai ko oukou mau mea e inainaia a pau.
Therefore, say thou unto the house of Israel, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Turn ye—and make good your return—from your manufactured gods; And, from all your abominations, make good the turning away of your faces.
7 No ka mea, o kela mea keia mea o ka ohana a Iseraela, a o ka malihini e noho iki ana iloko o ka Iseraela, i hookaawale ia ia iho mai o'u aku nei, a kukulu hoi i kona mau kii iloko o kona naau, a waiho iho hoi i kona mea e hoowalewale ai i ka hewa imua o kona alo. a hele mai hoi i ke kaula e ninau mai no'u; na'u na Iehova e hai aku ia ia ma o'u iho no.
For what man soever of the house of Israel Or of the sojourners who sojourn in Israel, Who shall estrange himself from following me And who shall bring up his manufactured gods, on his heart, And whose stumbling-block of iniquity, he shall set straight before his face, And then come in unto the prophet, to enquire by him of me, I Yahweh, will myself answer him, on my own account;
8 A e hooku e au i ko'u wahi maka i kela kanaka, a e hoolilo au ia ia i hoailona, a i hua olelo hoohiki; a e oki aku au ia ia mai waena aku o ko'u poe kanaka; a e ike no hoi oukou owau no Iehova.
And will set my face against that man And will make of him a sign and a proverb, And will cut him off out of the midst of my people: So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
9 A ina e puni ke kaula i kana olelo ana i kekahi mea, ua puni ia kaula ia'u ia Iehova. A e kikoo aku au i ko'u lima maluna ona, a e luku aku au ia ia mai waenakonu aku o ko'u poe kanaka ka Iseraela.
Yea the prophet himself when he suffereth himself to be deceived, and speaketh a word, I Yahweh, have suffered that prophet to be deceived, Then will I stretch forth my hand against him, and destroy him out of the midst of my people. Israel:
10 A e halihali lakou i ka hoopaiia o ko lakou hewa. E like ka hoopai ana i ke kaula me ka hoopai ana i ka mea i imi aku;
So shall they bear their punishment, As the punishment of him that enquireth, So shall the punishment of the prophet be:
11 I ole e auwana hou aku ka ohana a Iseraela mai o'u aku nei, i ole hoi e haumia hou me ko lakou lawehala ana, aka, e lilo lakou i poe kanaka no'u, a owau no hoi i Akua no, lakou, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
That the house of Israel may no more go astray from following me, And no more defile themselves by any of their transgressions, — But may become my people, and I, may become their God, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
12 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
13 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, i ka wa e hana hewa loa mai ai ka aina ia'u, e kikoo aku au i ko'u lima maluna iho ona, a e uhai au i ke kookoo o kana berena, a e hoouna aku au i ka wi maluna ona, a e oki aku i na kanaka me na holoholona mai ona aku la;
Son of man, When a land, shall sin against me by committing treachery, and I shall stretch out my hand against it, And break for it the staff of bread, And send thereon famine, And cut off therefrom man and beast,
14 Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, o Noa, Dauiela a me Ioba, o ko lakou mau uhane iho ka lakou e hoopakele ai ma ko lakou pono, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
Then should these three men be in the midst thereof, Noah, Daniel, and Job, they by their righteousness should deliver their own lives— Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
15 Ina e hoohele ae au i na holoholona ino iwaena o ka aina, a oki loa ia lakou, a neoneo loa i ole ai e hele ae ke kanaka mawaena no ua poe holoholona la;
If a mischievous wild beast, I suffer to pass through the land, and that beast bereave it, so that it become too desolate for any man to pass through, by reason of the wild beast,
16 Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i na keikikane me na kaikamahine, o lakou wale no ke hoopakeleia, aka, e neoneo no ka aina.
[Were] these three men in the midst thereof, As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely neither sons nor daughters, should they deliver, They alone should be delivered, But the land, should become a desolation.
17 A ina lawe au i ka pahikaua maluna o ka aina, a e olelo aku, E ka pahikaua, e hele oe mawaeua o ka aina; a oki aku au i na kanaka a me na holoholona mai ona aku la;
Or, a sword, I should bring upon that land, and should say. O sword! thou shalt go through the land, and so I should cut off therefrom, man and beast,
18 Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i na keikikane, aole hoi i na kaikamahine; o lakou wale no ke hoopakeleia.
Were these three men in the midst thereof, As I live! Saith My Lord Yahweh, They should deliver neither sons nor daughters, — For they alone, should be delivered.
19 A ina e hoouna au i ka mai ahulau i kela aina, a e ninini aku i ko'u huhu maluna ona me ke koko, e oki aku i kanaka pu me ka holoholona,
Or pestilence, I, should send into that land, —and should pour out mine indignation thereon in blood, to cut off therefrom man and beast
20 Ina o Noa, Daniela a me Ioba ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i ke keikikane, aole hoi i ke kaikamahine; o ko lakou mau uhane iho ka lakou e hoopakele ai ma ko lakou pono.
Were Noah, Daniel and Job in the midst thereof, As I live, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely neither son nor daughter, should they deliver, They, by their righteousness should deliver only their own lives.
21 No ka mea, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E kela aku keia i ka wa e hoouna aku ai au i kuu mau mea hoopai kaumaha a eha maluna o Ierusalema, i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka holoholona ino, a me ka mai auhulau, e oki aku mai laila aku i kanaka pu me ka holoholona.
For thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, How much less [should they avail] when my four calamitous judgments, sword and famine and mischievous wild beast and pestilence I have sent against Jerusalem, —to cut off therefrom man and beast?
22 Aka, eia hoi, e koe no ke koena iloko ona e laweia'e iwaho, o na keikikane a me na kaikamahine; aia hoi, e puka mai lakou io oukou la, a e ike oukou i ko lakou aoao a me ka lakou hana ana; a e hooluoluia oukou no ka ino a'u i hooili ae ai maluna o Ierusalema, no na mea a pau a'u i kau ai maluna ona.
Yet lo! there hath been left therein a remnant of fugitives to be brought forth —sons and daughters— There they are! coming forth unto you, And so ye shall see their way, and their doings, and be consoled over the calamity which I have brought in upon Jerusalem even all that I have brought in upon her.
23 A e hooluolu lakou ia oukou, aia ike oukou i ko lakou mau aoao a me ka lakou hana ana; a e ike oukou aole au i hana kumu ole i na mea a pau a'u i hana'i iloko ona, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
Yea they shall console you, when ye see their way and their doings, — So shall ye know that not without cause, have I done, anything that I have done with her, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
