Ezekiela 22
1 HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
2 Ano hoi, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoohewa anei oe, e hoohewa oe i ke kulanakauhale koko? Oia, e hoike no oe ia ia i kona mau mea a pau i inainaia.
Thou therefore son of man, Wilt thou judge wilt thou judge the city of bloodshed; and cause her to know all her abominations?
3 E olelo aku oe, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Huku, penei; Ke hookahe nei ke kulanakauhale i ke koko iwaenakonu ona, i hiki mai kona manawa, a ua hana oia i na akua kii e ku e ia ia iho, e hoohaumia ia ia iho.
Thou shalt say then Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, A city shedding blood in her own midst That her time might come, Therefore hath she been making manufactured gods for herself, to be defiled.
4 I ke koko au i hookahe ai, ua hewa oe, a ma na akua kii au i hana'i, ua hoohaumia oe ia oe iho; a ua hookokoke no oe i kou mau la, a ua hiki mai hoi i kou mau makahiki; nolaila i hoolilo aku ai au ia oe i mea e hoinoia e na lahuikanaka, a i mea e henehene ai ko na aina a pau.
Because of the blood which thou hast shed, hast thou become guilty. And with the manufactured gods which thou hast made, hast thou defiled thyself, Thus hast thou brought near thy days, And hast come unto thy years, — For this cause, have I delivered thee As a reproach to the nations, And as a derision to all the lands.
5 O ka poe kokoke mai a me ka poe mamao aku ia oe, e henehene no lakou ia oe ka mea inoa haumia, a ua hoouluhua nui ia.
They who are near and they who are far off from thee shall shew themselves derisive over thee, — O thou of impure name, abounding in confusion!
6 Eia hoi, o na'lii o ka Iseraela, kela mea keia mea iloko ou ma ka hookahe koko lakou me ko lakou ikaika.
Lo! the princes of Israel, every man for his own arm, have they been in thee, For the sake of shedding blood.
7 O ka makuakane a me ka makuwahine ka lakou i hoowahawaha ai iloko ou; ma ka hooluhihewa i hana aku ai lakou i ka malihini iloko ou; a maloko ou i hoopilikia ai lakou i na mea makua ole a me na wahine kanemake.
Father and mother, have they despised in thee, To the sojourner, have they dealt with oppression in the midst of thee, — The fatherless and the widow, have they maltreated in thee:
8 Ua hoowahawaha oe i ko'u mau mea hoano, a ua hoohaumia hoi oe i ko'u mau Sabati.
My holy things, hast thou despised, - And my sabbaths, hast thou profaned:
9 Maloko ou na kanaka holoholo olelo e hookahe i ke koko; ua ai hoi lakou maluna o na mauna iloko ou; a iwaenakonu ou ua hana lakou ma ka moe kolohe.
Slanders, have arisen in thee For the sake of shedding blood, - And unto the mountains, have they eaten in thee, Lewdness, have they practised in the midst of thee:
10 Maloko ou, ua wehe lakou i kahi huna o ko lakou makuakane; a maloko ou ua hoohaahaa lakou i ka wahine i hookaawaleia'e no ka heekoko.
A father’s shame hath been uncovered in thee, Her that was unclean in her removal, have they humbled in thee;
11 Ua hana kekahi i ka mea inainaia me ka wahine a kona hoalauna, a ua hoohaumia kekahi i kana hunona wahine ma ka moo kolohe; a ua hoohaahaa kekahi iloko ou i kona kaikuwahine, he kaikamahine a kona makuakane.
And, one man, with the wife of his neighbour, hath wrought abomination, And another, hath defiled, his daughter-in-law, by shameful deed, — And another, his own sister daughter of his own father, hath humbled in thee:
12 Maloko ou ua lawe lakou i na kipe e hookahe i ke koko; ua lawe oe i ke kuala a me ka uku panee, a ua loaa ia oe me ka makee, o ka kou mau hoalauna, ma ka hooluhihewa, a ua hoopoina mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
Bribes, have they accepted in thee, For the sake of shedding blood, -Interest and increase, hast thou accepted And thou hast overreached thy neighbour by oppression, And me, hast thou forgotten, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
13 Nolaila ea, ua pai au i kuu mau lima i kou waiwai alunu i loaa ia oe, a me kou koko i hookaheia iwaenakonu ou.
Lo! therefore I have smitten my hand, At thine unjust gain which thou hast made— And over thy bloodshed, which they have caused in thy midst.
14 E hiki anei i kou naau ke hoomanawanui, a e ikaika anei kou mau lima i na la e lalau aku ai au ia oe? Na'u na Iehova i olelo, a na'u no ia o hana.
Can thy heart endure or can thy hands be strong in the days when I am dealing with thee? I. Yahweh have spoken and will perform.
15 E lulu aku au ia oe iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e hooleilei aku ia oe iwaena o na aina, a e hoopau aku i kou haumia mailoko aku ou.
Therefore will I disperse thee among the nations, And scatter thee throughout the lands, — And will cause to cease thine impurity out of thee;
16 A e lawe oe i kou hooilina iloko ou iho, imua i ke alo o na lahuikanaka, a e ike oe owau no Iehova.
So shalt thou be profaned in thyself, before the eyes of nations, Thus shalt thou know that, I, am Yahweh.
17 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
18 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua lilo ka ohana a Iseraela i lepo ia'u nei; o lakou a pau he keleawe, he piuta, he hao, a he kepaupoka, iloko o ka umu hoohehee; he lepo no hoi o ke kala.
Son of man, The house of Israel hath become to me, dross, — They all are copper and tin and iron and lead in the midst of a furnace, The dross of silver, have they become.
19 Nolaila, wahi a Iehova ka Haku; no ka lilo ana o oukou a pau i lepo, nolaila, ea, e hoakoakoa au ia oukou iwaenakonu o Ierusalema;
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Because ye all are become dross, Therefore, behold me! gathering you into the midst of Jerusalem:
20 E like me ko lakou houluulu ana i ke kala, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me ke kepaupoka a me ka piuta iwaenakonu o ka umu hoohehee, e puhi i ke ahi maluna olaila, e hoohehee iho; pela e houluulu ai au, me ko'u huhu a me ko'u ukiuki, a e waiho iho, a e hoohehee ia oukou.
As they gather silver and copper and iron and lead and tin into the midst of a furnace, to blow upon it the fire to melt it, So, will I gather in mine anger and in mine indignation, and will let be and will melt you;
21 Oia, e houluulu au ia oukou, a e puhi maluna o oukou iloko o ke ahi o ko'u ukiuki, a pau oukou i ka hooheheeia iwaenakonu ona.
Yea I will gather you together, and blow upon you, with the fire of my wrath, — And ye shall be melted in the midst thereof:
22 Me he kala la i hooheheeia iwaena konu o ka umu hoohehee, pela oukou e hooheheeia'i iloko ona; a e ike oukou ua ninini aku au i ko'u huhu, maluna o oukou.
As silver is melted in he midst of a furnace, So, shall ye be melted in the midst thereof, — Then shall ye know that, I Yahweh, have poured out mine indignation upon you.
23 Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
24 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e olelo aku oe ia ia, O oe no ka aina i waele ole ia, a i ua ole ia i ka la i huhu ai.
Son of man, say to her. Thou, art a land, that is not to be rained upon, nor to receive fruitful showers, in the day of indignation.
25 He ohumu kipi o kona mau kaula iwaenakonu ona, e like me ka liona e uwo ana, e haehae ana i ka mea pio; ua ai lakou i na uhane, ua lawe lakou i ke kala, a me na mea makamae; a ua hoonui lakou nona i na wahinekanemake iwaena konu ona.
Because her princes in her midst are like a roaring lion rending prey, — Life, have they devoured Wealth and precious things, have they been wont to take, Her widows, have they multiplied in her midst.
26 Ua hana ino kona mau kahuna pule i kuu kanawai, a ua hoohaumia lakou i kuu mea hoano; aole lakou i hookaawale iwaena o na mea hoano a me na mea haumia, aole hoi i hoakaka lakou iwaena o ka mea maemae a me ka mea maemae ole, ua huna hoi lakou i ko lakou mau maka i ko'u mau Sabati, a ua hoohaumiaia wau iwaena o lakou.
Her priests have done violence to my law And have profaned my holy things, Between the hallowed and the common, have they put no difference, And between the unclean and clean, have they not taught men to discern, - And from my sabbaths, have they hid their eyes, So that I have been profaned in their midst.
27 O kona mau alii, iwaenakonu ona, ua like me na ilio hihiu hae e haehae ana i ka mea pio, e hookahe i ke koko, a e luku hoi i na uhane e loaa ia lakou ka waiwai alunu.
Her rulers within her have been like wolves, rending prey, - In shedding blood In destroying lives, For the sake of getting dishonest gain.
28 Ua hamo aku kona mau kaula ia lakou me ka puna ikaika ole, e nana ana i ka mea lapuwale, a e wanana ana i na mea wahahee no lakou, e olelo ana, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei, aole nae i olelo Iehova.
And her prophets have coated it for them with whitewash, Seeing visions of falsehood And divining for them lies, Saying, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, when Yahweh, hath not spoken.
29 Ua hooluhihewa na kanaka o ka aina, a kaili wale i ka mea kaili, ua hookaumaha lakou i ka mea haahaa, a me ka mea nele; oia, ua hookaumaha lakou i ka malihini ma ka pono ole.
The people of the land have exacted oppression, and seized plunder, - Even the afflicted and the needy, have they maltreated, And the sojourner have they oppressed without justice.
30 Imi aku la au i kahi kanaka iwaena o lakou e hana hou i ka pa, a e ku ma kahi naha imua o ko'u alo no ka aina, i ole au e luku aku ia ia; aole hoi i loaa ia'u.
Then sought I from among them, a man Who could build up a wall And stand in the breach before me in behalf of the land So that I might not destroy her, — But I found none.
31 Nolaila ninini aku la au i ko'u ukiuki maluna o lakou, ua hoopau au ia lakou me ke ahi o ko'u huhu; o ko lakou aoao ponoi ka'u i hoopai aku ai maluna o ko lakou mau poo, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
Therefore have I poured out upon them mine indignation, In the fire of mine outburst, have I consumed them, — Their way, upon their own head, have I placed Declareth, My Lord Yahweh.
