Ezekiela 21
1 A LAILA hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
2 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hooku oe i kou wahi maka ia Ierusalema, a hoolei aku i kau olelo ma ke kupono i ua wahi hoano, a e wanana ku e i ka aina o ka Iseraela,
'Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and preach toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
3 A e olelo aku i ka aina o ka Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Ke ka e nei au ia oe, a e unuhi ae au i kuu pahikaua mailoko ae o kona wahi, a e oki aku au mai ou aku nei i ka mea pono a me ka mea hewa.
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.
4 A no ko'u oki ana aku mai ou aku nei i ka mea pono a me ka mea hewa, nolaila e hele aku ko'u pahikaua maiioko aku o kona wahi e ku e i na io a pau, mai ke kukuluhema, a ke kukuluakau;
Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north;
5 I ike ka io a pau, ua unuhi ae wau o Iehova i kuu pahikaua mailoko ae o kona wahi; aole ia e hoi hou iho.
and all flesh shall know that I the LORD have drawn forth My sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.
6 Nolaila e auwe oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, me ka hai ana o kou puhaka, a me ke kaumaha loa e auwe ai imua o ko lakou mau maka.
Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.
7 Eia hoi, i ko lakou ninau ana ia oe, No ke aha la oe e auwe nei? e olelo aku oe, No ka louo; no ka mea, e hiki mai ana no; a e hehee no na naau a pau, a e pau no na lima i ka nawaliwali, a e maule no hoi na kuli a pau me he wai la: no ka mea, eia hoi, e hele mai no ia, a e hookoia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
And it shall be, when they say unto thee: Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt say: Because of the tidings, for it cometh; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be slack, and every spirit shall be faint, and all knees shall drip with water; behold, it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.'
8 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
9 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana aku oe, a e olelo aku, Ke i mai nei ka Haku penei; E ka pahikaua, ua hookalaia ka pahikaua, ua hoohualiia:
'Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the LORD: Say: A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished:
10 Ua hookalaia i luku nui aku ia; a ua hoohualiia ia e olinolino ia: he pono no anei ia kakou ke hana lealea? Ua hoowahawaha no ke kookoo o ka'u keiki i na kumu laau a pau.
It is sharpened that it may make a sore slaughter, it is furbished that it may glitter — or shall we make mirth? — against the rod of My son, contemning every tree.
11 Ua haawiia mai no ia e hoohualiia ia i lawelaweia; ua hookalaia keia pahikaua, a ua hoohualiia e haawiia iloko o ka lima o ka mea luku.
And it is given to be furbished, that it may be handled; the sword, it is sharpened, yea, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
12 E auwe ae, a e aoa ae, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, no ka mea, maluna auanei ia o ko'u poe kanaka, maluna no ia o na'lii a pau o ka Iseraela; ua haawi pu ia lakou i ka pahikaua me ko'u poe kanaka; nolaila e hahau oe maluna iho o kou uha.
Cry and wail, son of man; for it is upon My people, it is upon all the princes of Israel; they are thrust down to the sword with My people; smite therefore upon thy thigh.
13 No ka mea, ho hoao ana keia, a heaha la hoi ke hoowahawaha aku ia i ke kookoo? aole e koe aku ia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
For there is a trial; and what if it contemn even the rod? It shall be no more, saith the Lord GOD.
14 E wanana hoi oe, e ko keiki a ke kanaka, a e pai pu i kou mau lima, i ekolu hoi ka papalua ana o ka pahikaua, he pahikaua a ka poe i lukuia: o ka pahikaua ia a ka poe kanaka nui i pepehiia ka i hoopuni ia.
Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
15 Ua hoonoho au i ka maka o ka pahikaua e ku e i ko lakou mau ipuka a pau i maule ka naau, a i hoonuiia ka hiolo ana: Auwe ua hoohualiia ia, ua unuhiia uo ka luku ana.
I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied; ah! it is made glittering, it is sharpened for slaughter.
16 E hui pu, e hele oe ma kekahi aoao, ma ka lima akau paha ma ka lima hema paha, ma kahi i ku pono ai kou alo.
Go thee one way to the right, or direct thyself to the left; whither is thy face set?
17 Owau no kekahi e pai pu i ko'u mau lima, a e hoomaha au i ko'u ukiuki: na'u na Iehova i olelo iho.
I will also smite My hands together, and I will satisfy My fury; I the LORD have spoken it.'
18 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
19 O oe hoi, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoomaopopo oe i na ala elua, e hele mai ai ka pahikaua a ke alii o Babulona; e hele pu mai laua a elua mai ka aina hookahi mai; e koho oe i kekahi wahi, e koho ma ke poo o ke ala e hiki ai i ke kulanakauhale.
'Now, thou son of man, make thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they twain shall come forth out of one land; and mark a signpost, mark it clear at the head of the way to the city.
20 Hoomaopopo i ke ala e hiki mai ai ka pahikaua i Raba no na mamo a Amona, a ia Iuda iloko o Ierusalema ka mea i paa i ka paia.
Thou shalt make a way, that the sword may come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
21 No ka mea, ua ku iho la ke alii o Babulona ma ka mahele ana o ke alanui, ma ke poo o na ala elua, e kilokilo ai; hoonaueue oia i kana mau pua, kukakuka no ia me na kii, ua nana no ia i ke akepaa.
For the king of Babylon standeth at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination; he shaketh the arrows to and fro, he inquireth of the teraphim, he looketh in the liver.
22 Ma kona lima akau ke kilokilo ana no Ierusalema, e hoonoho ai i na hipa kane wawahi, e hoohamama i ka waha no ka luku ana, e hookiekie hoi i ka leo i ka hooho ana, e hoonoho ku e i na hipa kane wawahi ma na ipuka, e hookumu hoi i ka puu, a kukulu hoi i ka pakaua.
In his right hand is the lot Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth for the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
23 E lilo hoi ia me he kilokilo wahahee ana i ko lakou maka, i na mea i hoohiki ai ma ka berita ia lakou; aka, e hoomanao oia i ka hewa e paa lakou i ka hopuia.
And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, who have weeks upon weeks! but it bringeth iniquity to remembrance, that they may be taken.
24 Nolaila, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; No ka mea, no oukou i hoomanaoia'i ko oukou hewa, i ka hoikeia o ko oukou lawehala ana, i ikeia hoi ka oukou hana ana a pau, no ko oukou hoomanaoia'e, e hopuia oe me ka lima.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that your sins do appear in all your doings; because that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
25 A o oe, e ke alii aia hewa o ka Iseraela, ua hiki mai kona la e oki ai ka hewa.
And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end;
26 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E lawe oe i ka lei alii, a e hemo hoi ke korona: aole ia mea hookahi; e hookiekie ae i ka mea haahaa, a e hoohaahaa i ka mea kiekie.
thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased.
27 Na'u no e hookahuli, hookahuli, hookahuli ia mea; a e ole ia, a hiki mai ka mea ia ia ka pono, a e haawi au ia nona.
A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
28 A o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana oe a e olelo aku no na mamo a Amona, a me ko lakou hoino, e olelo hoi oe, O ka pahikaua, na unuhiia ka pahikaua; ua hoohualiia no ka luku ana, e hoopau ai no kona olinolmo ana.
And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their taunt; and say thou: O sword, O sword keen-edged, furbished for the slaughter, to the uttermost, because of the glitterings;
29 I ko lakou ike ana i ka mea hoopunipuni nou, a i ko lakou kilokilo ana i ka wahahee, e haawi ia oe maluna o na a-i o ka poe i pepehiia, o ka poe hewa, ua hiki mai ko lakou la e oki ai ko lakou hewa.
While they see falsehood unto thee, while they divine lies unto thee, to lay thee upon the necks of the wicked that are to be slain, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end!
30 E hoihoi anei au ia mea iloko o kona wahi? Ma kahi i hanaia'i oe, a ma ka aina i hanauia'i oe, malaila au e hoopai aku ai ia oe:
Cause it to return into its sheath! — In the place where thou wast created, in the land of thine origin, will I judge thee.
31 E ninini aku hoi au i kuu inaina maluua ou, a e puhi aku au ia oe me ke ahi o ko'u huhu ana, a e haawi aku au ia oe iloko o ka lima o na kanaka lokoino, a he akamai i ka luku aku.
And I will pour out My indignation upon thee, I will blow upon thee with the fire of My wrath; and I will deliver thee into the hand of brutish men, skilful to destroy.
32 E lilo no oe i wahie no ke ahi, mawaenakonu hoi o ka aina kou koko; aole hoi oe e hoomanao hou ia; no ka mea, na'u na Iehova ia i olelo ai.
Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, thou shalt be no more remembered; for I the LORD have spoken it.'
