Ezekiela 2

1 I MAI la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e ku iluna oe ma kou mau wawae, a e olelo aku no au ia oe.

This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw and fell upon my face, and heard the voice of one speaking: and he said to me, Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak to you.

2 A komo mai la ka uhane iloko o'u i kana olelo ana ia'u, a hooku ia'u ma ko'u mau wawae, a lohe au i ka mea olelo mai ia'u.

And the Spirit came upon me, and took me up, and raised me, and set me on my feet: and I heard him speaking to me.

3 Olelo mai la hoi ia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ke hoouna aku nei au ia oe i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka lahuikanaka kipi i kipi ia'u; ua hana hewa lakou a me ko lakou mau makua ia'u a hiki i keia la.

And he said to me, Son of Man, I send you forth to the house of Israel, them that provoke me; who have provoked me, they and their fathers to this day.

4 No ka mea, he poe keiki maka oolea lakou a me ka naau paakiki, a e olelo aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei.

And you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord.

5 A o lakou, ina lohe paha, a lohe ole paha, (no ka mea, he ohana kipi lakou, ) e ike no hoi lakou he kaula no ka iwaena o lakou.

Whether then indeed they shall hear or fear, (for it is a provoking house, ) yet they shall know that you are a prophet in the midst of them.

6 A o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, mai makau aku ia lakou, aole hoi i ka lakou mau olelo, ina he mau laau oioi a me ke kakalaioa kekahi me oe, a noho oe iwaena o na moohueloawa, mai noho a weliweli oe i ka lakou mau olelo, aole hoi i ko lakou mau helehelena, ina no he ohana kipi lakou.

And you, son of man, fear them not, nor be dismayed at their face; (for they will madden and will rise up against you round about, and you dwell in the midst of scorpions): be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their countenance, for it is a provoking house.

7 A e olelo aku oe i ka'u mau olelo ia lakou, ina lohe lakou, a ina lohe ole lakou; no ka mea, he poe kipi loa lakou.

And you shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or fear: for it is a provoking house.

8 Aka o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoolohe mai i ka mea a'u e olelo aku ai ia oe; mai noho a kipi oe e like me kela ohana kipi, e oaka kou waha a e ai i ka mea a'u e haawi aku ai ia oe.

And you, son of man, hear him that speaks to you; be not you provoking, as the provoking house: open your mouth, and eat what I give you.

9 A i ko'u nana ana, aia hoi, ua hoounaia mai kekahi lima ia'u; aia hoi, maloko ona he owili palapala;

And I looked, and behold, a hand stretched out to me, and in it a volume of a book.

10 A hohola mai la oia ia mea imua o ko'u alo; a ua kakauia maloko a mawaho, a ua kakania hoi malaila: NA KANIKAU, A ME KA UWE ANA, A ME KA POINO.

And he unrolled it before me: and in it the front and the back were written [upon]: and there was written [in it] Lamentation, and mournful song, and woe.
