Ezekiela 23
1 HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, Elua aku la wahine, na kaikamahine a ka makuwahine hookahi:
“Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother,
3 Moe kolohe laua ma Aiguipita; moe kolohe laua i ko laua wa opiopio: malaila i kaomiia ko laua mau umauma, a malaila i paopao ai lakou i na omaka o ko laua puupaa ana.
and they played in Egypt, prostituting themselves from their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their virgin bosoms caressed.
4 A o ko laua mau inoa, o Ahola ke kaikuaana, a o Aholiba kona kaikaina; a na'u no laua, a ua hanau laua i na keikikaue a me na kaikamahine. Pela hoi ko laua mau inoa, o Ahola, o Samaria ia, a o Aholiba, o Ierusalema ia.
The older was named Oholah, and her sister was named Oholibah. They became Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their identities, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
5 Moe kolohe aku la o Ahola i kona wa na'u, a hauoli no ia i kana mau ipo, ko Asuria kona hoalauna,
Oholah prostituted herself while she was still Mine. She lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—warriors
6 I aahuia i ke kapa poni uliuli, na luna koa me na'lii, na kanaka ui e makemakeia lakou a pau, a hoohololio e holo ana maluna o na lio.
clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all desirable young men, horsemen mounted on steeds.
7 Pela ia i hana'i i kona moe kolohe ana me lakou, me ko Asuria poe a pau i waeia, a me ka poe a pau ana i hauoli ai; a me ko lakou mau akuakii a pau i hoohaumia ai oia ia ia iho.
She offered sexual favors to all the elite of Assyria. She defiled herself with all the idols of those for whom she lusted.
8 Aole hoi ia i haalele i kona moe kolohe ana mai Aigupita mai; no ka mea, i kona wa opiopio moe pu lakou me ia, a pepe iho la i na u o kona puupaa ana, a ua ninini aku i ko lakou moe kolohe ana maluna ona.
She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt, when men slept with her in her youth, caressed her virgin bosom, and poured out their lust upon her.
9 Nolaila i haawi aku ai au ia ia iloko o ka lima o kana poe ipo, i ka lima o ko Asuria, na mea ana i hauoli ai.
Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
10 Ua wehe lakou i kona wahi huna, a lalau hoi i kana mau kaikamahine, a pepehi iho la lakou ia ia me ka pahikaua; a kaulana aku la oia iwaena o na wahine, no ka mea, ua hoopai lakou ia ia.
They exposed her nakedness, seized her sons and daughters, and put her to the sword. Thus she became a byword among women, and they executed judgment against her.
11 A ike aku la kona kaikaina o Aholiba ia mea, ua oi aku kona hewa i kona kuko ana mamua ona, a i kona moe kolohe ana mamua o kona kaikuaana i kona moe kolohe ana.
Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet in her lust and prostitution she was more depraved than her sister.
12 Hauoli iho la oia i ko Asuria kona mau hoalauna, na luna koa a me na'lii kahiko nani ia, na hoohololio, e holo ana maluna o na lio, he poe kanaka ui lakou a pau e makemakeia.
She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors dressed in splendor, horsemen riding on steeds, all desirable young men.
13 Alaila ike aku la au ua haumia ia, hele pu hoi laua i ka aoao hookahi;
And I saw that she too had defiled herself; both of them had taken the same path.
14 A ua hoomahuahua oia i kona moe kolohe ana; no ka mea, i kona ike ana i na kanaka i kakauia ma ka paia, o na kii o ko Kaledea i kakauia me ka pena ulaula,
But Oholibah carried her prostitution even further. She saw the men portrayed on the wall, images of the Chaldeans, engraved in vermilion,
15 Kaeiia hoi me na kaei ma ko lakou puhaka, nani hoi ko lakou lole hooluuia ma ko lakou mau poo, he poe alii lakou a pau i ka nana aku, ma ke ano o ko Babulona no Kaledea, ko lakou aina hanau:
wearing belts on their waists and flowing turbans on their heads; all of them looked like officers of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth.
16 A i kona ike ana ia lakou me kona mau maka, hauoli aku la oia ia lakou, a hoouna aku la i na elele io lakou la ma Kaledea.
At the sight of them, she lusted for them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.
17 Hele mai la hoi ko Babela io na la iloko o ka moe aloha, a hoohaumia ia ia me ko lakou moe kolohe ana, a ua haumia oia ia lakou, a ua ku e kona manao ia lakou.
Then the Babylonians came to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. But after she had been defiled by them, she turned away in disgust.
18 A pela i hoike ai oia i kona moe kolohe ana, a wehe hoi i kona wahi huna; alaila ku e ko'u manao ia ia, e like me ke ku e ana o ko'u naau i kona kaikuaana.
When Oholibah openly prostituted herself and exposed her nakedness, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had turned away from her sister.
19 Ua hoomabuahua nae oia i kona moe kolohe ana, e hoomanao ana i na la o kona opiopio ana i moe kolohe ai i ka aina o Aigupita.
Yet she multiplied her promiscuity, remembering the days of her youth, when she had prostituted herself in the land of Egypt
20 No ka mea, ua hauoli oia i kana mau ipo, o ko lakou io he like me ka io o na hoki, a o ko lakou kahe ana ua like me ko na lio kahe ana.
and lusted after their lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of stallions.
21 Pela i hoomanao ai oe i ka moe kolohe ana o kou wa opiopio, i ka pepe ana o kou mau omaka i ko Aigupita no na u o kou opiopio ana.
So you revisited the indecency of your youth, when the Egyptians caressed your bosom and pressed your young breasts.
22 Nolaila, e Aholiba, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E hooku ae au i kau mau ipo e ku e ia oe, na mea a kou naau i ku e ai, a e lawe mai au ia lakou e ku e ia oe a puni;
Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will incite your lovers against you, those from whom you turned away in disgust. And I will bring them against you from every side—
23 I ko Babulona, a me ko Kaledea a pau, o Pekoda, a me Soa, a me Koa, a me ko Asuria a pau me lakou; he poe kanaka ui i makemakeia lakou a pau na luna koa, me na'lii, a me na haku nui, a he kaulana hoi, e holo ana lakou a pau maluna o na lio.
the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, the men of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them—all desirable young men, governors and commanders, officers and men of renown, mounted on horses.
24 A e hele ku e mai lakou ia oe me na kaa kaua, a me na kaa waiwai, a me na huila, a me ke anaina kanaka, e hoonoho ku e ia oe i ka pale kaua, i ka pale umauma, a me ka mahiole a puni; a e hoonoho aku au i ka hoopai ana imua o lakou, a e hoopai aku lakou ia oe mamuli o ko lakou hoopai ana.
They will come against you with a host of peoples, with weapons, chariots, and wagons. They will array themselves against you on every side with buckler and shield and helmet. I will delegate judgment to them, and they will punish you according to their own standards.
25 A e hooku e au i ko'u lili ia oe, a hana lakou me ka ukiuki ia oe, a o kaili lakou i kou ihu a me kou mau pepeiao; a e haule kou koena i ka pahikaua; a e lawe lakou i kau mau keikikane a me kau mau kaikamahine; a e hoopauia kou koena i ke ahi.
And I will set My jealous rage against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your remnant will be consumed by fire.
26 E hemo hoi ia lakou kou mau kapa komo, a e kaili ae hoi lakou i kou mau mea nani e nani ai.
They will strip off your clothes and take your fine jewelry.
27 Pela e hooki ai au i kou moe haumia ana, mai ou aku, a me kou moe kolohe ana no Aigupita mai, i ole oe e leha hou ae i kou mau maka ia lakou, aole hoi e hoomanao hou aku ia Aigupita.
So I will put an end to your indecency and prostitution, which began in the land of Egypt, and you will not lift your eyes to them or remember Egypt anymore.’
28 No ka mea, ke olelo nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e haawi aku au ia oe iloko o ka lima o ka poe au i hoowahawaha ai, a i ka lima o ka poe a kou naau i ku e ai.
For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Surely I will deliver you into the hands of those you hate, from whom you turned away in disgust.
29 A e hana aku lakou ia oe me ka inaina, a e lawe ae i kau mea i hana'i, a e waiho aku ia oe he olohelohe me ke kapa ole; a e akaka loa kou moe kolohe ana, o kou moe haumia ana a me kou hookamakama ana.
They will treat you with hatred, take all for which you have worked, and leave you naked and bare, so that the shame of your prostitution will be exposed. Your indecency and promiscuity
30 E hana aku au i keia mau mea ia oe no kou hele moe kolohe ana mamuli o na lahuikanaka, a no kou haumia ana i ko lakou mau akuakii.
have brought these things upon you, because you have prostituted yourself with the nations and defiled yourself with their idols.
31 Ua hele oe ma ka aoao o kou kaikuaana; nolaila e haawi aku ai au i kona kiaha iloko o kou lima.
Because you have followed the path of your sister, I will put her cup into your hand.’
32 Olelo mai o Iehova ka Haku, penei; E inu no oe i ko ke kiaha o kou kaikuaana he hohonu a he nui; a e heneheneia oe a e akaakaia, no ka mea, he nui ko loko.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You will drink your sister’s cup, a cup deep and wide. It will bring scorn and derision, for it holds so much.
33 E piha auanei oe i ka ona a me ka ehaeha, me ke kiaha o ka makau a me ka neoneo, o ke kiaha o kou kaikuaana o ko Samaria.
You will be filled with drunkenness and grief, with a cup of devastation and desolation, the cup of your sister Samaria.
34 E inu no hoi oe ia mea, a e omo ae hoi, a e wahi no hoi oe i na apana ona, a e kaili ae i kou mau u ponoi; no ka mea, ua olelo au ia mea, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
You will drink it and drain it; you will dash it to pieces, and tear your breasts. For I have spoken,’
35 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei Iehova, penei; No ka mea, ua hoopoina mai oe ia'u, a ua kiola oe ia'u mahope o kou kua; nolaila e halihali oe i kou moe haumia ana a me kou moe kolohe ana.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have forgotten Me and have cast Me behind your back, you must bear the consequences of your indecency and prostitution.’”
36 Olelo hou mai la o Iehova ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoahewa anei oe ia Ahola, a me Aholiba? oia, e hai aku oe ia laua i ko laua mea e inainaia;
Then the LORD said to me: “Son of man, will you pass judgment against Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.
37 No ka mea, ua moe kolohe laua, a he koko no iloko o ko laua mau lima, a me ko laua mau akuakii i moe kolohe ai laua, a ua hoohele laua i ka laua mau keiki i hanau na'u iwaena o ke ahi i mea ai na lakou.
For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols. They have even sacrificed their children, whom they bore to Me, in the fire as food for their idols.
38 Eia hoi kekahi mea a lakou i hana mai ia'u, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u wahi hoano ia la hookahi, a ua hehi hoi i ko'u mau Sabati.
They have also done this to Me: On that very same day, they defiled My sanctuary and profaned My Sabbaths.
39 No ka mea, i ko laua pepehi aua i ka laua mau keiki, no ko laua mau akuakii, alaila hele mai laua ia la no, iloko o ko'u wahi hoano, e hoohaumia ia wahi; pela hoi i hana'i laua, ea, iwaenakonu o kuu hale!
On the very day they slaughtered their children for their idols, they entered My sanctuary to profane it. Yes, they did this inside My house.
40 Eia hou hoi, ua kii aku olua i na kanaka e hele mai lakou mai kahi loihi mai, ia lakou i hoounaia'ku ai ka elele, oia hoi, ua hiki mai lakou; no lakou hoi i holoi ai oe ia oe iho, a pena hoi i kou mau maka, a kahiko hoi ia oe iho me na mea e nani ai.
Furthermore, you sisters sent messengers for men who came from afar; and behold, when they arrived, you bathed for them, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry.
41 A noho no oe maluna o kahi moe nui, a he papa i hoomakaukauia imua ona, maluna iho hoi i hoonoho ai oe i kuu mea ala, a me kuu aila.
You sat on a couch of luxury with a table spread before it, on which you had set My incense and My oil,
42 A o ka leo o ke anaina e nanea ana kekahi me ia, a ua lawe pu ia na makaainana me ka poe ona, mai ka waonahele mai, ua kau lakou i na kupee ma ko lakou mau lima, a me na lei nani maluna o ko lakou mau poo.
accompanied by the sound of a carefree crowd. Drunkards were brought in from the desert along with men from the rabble, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.
43 Alaila olelo iho au no ka mea kahiko ma ka moe kolohe ana, E moe kolohe anei lakou mo ia, a oia pu hoi me lakou?
Then I said of her who had grown old in adulteries: ‘Now let them use her as a prostitute, for that is all she is!’
44 Aka, komo iloko lakou io na la e like me ko lakou hele ana ae iloko i ka wahine hookamakama; pela e komo ai lakou iloko io Ahola la, a io Aholiba la i na wahine moe haumia.
And they slept with her as with a prostitute; they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, those lewd women.
45 A o na kanaka pono, e hoahewa lakou ia laua e like me ka lakou hoahewa ana i na wahine moe kolohe, a mamuli hoi o ke ano o na wahine hookahe i ke koko; no ka mea, he mau wahine moe kolohe laua a he koko ko loko o ko laua mau lima.
But righteous men will sentence them to the punishment of those who commit adultery and bloodshed, because they are adulteresses with blood on their hands.
46 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E lawe mai au i ka lehulehu maluna o laua, a e haawi aku au ia laua e laweia'ku a eha oia.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Bring a mob against them and consign them to terror and plunder.
47 A e hailuku aku ke anaina ia laua me na pohaku, a e kua iho ia laua ilalo me ka lakou mau pahikaua, e luku lakou i ka laua mau keiki kane a me ka laua mau kaikamahine, a e hoopau i ko laua mau hale me ke ahi.
The mob will stone them and cut them down with their swords. They will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses.
48 Pela e hoopau aku ai au i ka moe kolohe, mai ka aina aku, i aoia'ku ai na wahine a pau aole e hana mamuli o ko olua moe kolohe ana.
So I will put an end to indecency in the land, and all the women will be admonished not to imitate your behavior.
49 A e uku lakou i ko olua moe kolohe ana maluna o olua, a e halihali olua i na hewa o ko olua mau akuakii; a e ike no oukou owau no Iehova ka Haku.
They will repay you for your indecency, and you will bear the consequences of your sins of idolatry. Then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’”
