Ezekiela 21
1 A LAILA hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And there is a word of Jehovah 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 unto Jerusalem, and prophesy unto the holy places, and prophesy unto the ground 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 thou hast said unto the ground of Israel: Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, And have brought out My sword from its scabbard, And have cut off from thee righteous and 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;
Because that I have cut off from thee righteous and wicked, Therefore go out doth My sword from its scabbard, Unto all flesh, from south to 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 known have all flesh that I, Jehovah, Have brought out My sword from its scabbard, It doth not turn back 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.
And thou, son of man, sigh with breaking of loins, yea, with bitterness thou dost 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 hath come to pass, when they say unto thee, For what art thou sighing? that thou hast said: Because of the report, for it is coming, And melted hath every heart, And feeble hath been all hands, And weak is every spirit, And all knees go — waters, Lo, it is coming, yea, it hath been, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
8 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And there is a word of Jehovah 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 thou hast said, Thus said Jehovah, say: A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also polished.
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.
So as to slaughter a slaughter it is sharpened. So as to have brightness it is polished, Desire hath rejoiced the sceptre of my son, It is despising 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 he giveth it for polishing, For laying hold of by the hand. It is sharpened — the sword — and polished, To give it into the hand of a 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 howl, son of man, For it hath been among My people, It [is] among all the princes of Israel, Cast unto the sword have been My people. Therefore strike on 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.
Because [it is] a trier, And what if even the sceptre it is despising? It shall not be, an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
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.
And thou, son of man, prophesy, And smite hand on hand, And bent is the sword a third time, The sword of the wounded! It [is] the sword of the wounded — the great one, That is entering the inner chamber to them.
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.
To melt the heart, and to multiply the ruins, By all their gates I have set the point of a sword. Ah, it is made for brightness, Wrapped up 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.
Take possession of the right, place thyself at the left, Whither thy face is appointed.
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.
And I also, I smite My hand on my hand, And have caused My fury to rest; I, Jehovah, have spoken.'
18 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And there is a word of Jehovah 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.
'And thou, son of man, appoint for thee two ways, for the coming in of the sword of the king of Babylon; from one land they come forth, both of them, and a station prepare thou, at the top of the way of the city prepare [it].
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.
A way appoint for the coming of the sword, Unto Rabbath of the sons of Ammon, And to Judah, in Jerusalem — the fenced.
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 stood hath the king of Babylon at the head of the way, At the top of the two ways, to use divination, He hath moved lightly with the arrows, He hath asked at the teraphim, He hath looked on 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.
At his right hath been the divination — Jerusalem, To place battering-rams, To open the mouth with slaughter, To lift up a voice with shouting, To place battering-rams against the gates, To pour out a mount, to build a fortification.
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 hath been to them as a false divination in their eyes, Who have sworn oaths to them, And he is causing iniquity to be remembered to be caught.
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 said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your causing your iniquity to be remembered, In your transgressions being revealed, For your sins being seen, in all your doings, Because of your being remembered, By the hand ye are caught.
25 A o oe, e ke alii aia hewa o ka Iseraela, ua hiki mai kona la e oki ai ka hewa.
And thou, wounded, wicked one, Prince of Israel, whose day hath 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 said the Lord Jehovah: Turn aside the mitre, and bear away the crown, This — not this — the low make high, And the high make low.
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.
An overturn, overturn, overturn, I make it, Also this hath not been till the coming of Him, Whose [is] the judgment, and I have given it.
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 thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah concerning the sons of Ammon, and concerning their reproach: and thou hast said: A sword, a sword, open for slaughter, Polished to the utmost for brightness!
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.
In the seeing for thee of a vain thing, In the divining for thee of a lie, To put thee on the necks of the wounded of the wicked, whose day hath 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:
Turn [it] back unto its scabbard, In the place where thou wast produced, In the land of thy birth I do 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 have poured on thee Mine indignation, With fire of My wrath I blow against thee, And have given thee into the hand of brutish men — artificers of destruction.
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.
To the fire thou art for fuel, Thy blood is in the midst of the land, Thou art not remembered, For I, Jehovah, have spoken!'
