< Ezekiela 3 >
1 OLELO mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e ai oe i ka mea i loaa ia oe; e ai oe i keia owili, a e hele e olelo i ka ohana a Iseraela.
And he said to me, Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak to the house of Israel!
2 A oaka ae la kuu waha, a hanai mai la oia ia'u i kela owili.
So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the roll to eat.
3 A i mai la oia, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hanai oe i kou opu, a e hoopiha i kou mau naau i keia owili a'u e haawi nei ia oe. Alaila ai iho la au, a ua like ia iloko o kuu waha me ka meli i ka ono.
And he said to me, Son of man, let thy stomach eat, and fill thy body with this roll which I give thee! Then I ate it, and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
4 Olelo mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hele oe i ka ohana a Iseraela, a e olelo aku i ka'u mau olelo ia lakou.
And he said to me: Son of man, go, get thee to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them!
5 No ka mea, aole oe i hoounaia i kanaka lehelehe hohonu, me ka olelo paakiki, oka, i ka ohana a Iseraela;
For not to a people of a dark speech and a hard language art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;
6 Aole i na lahuikanaka he nui, me ka lehelehe hohonu, a me ka olelo paakiki, a maopopo ole ia oe ka lakou mau huaolelo. Ina i hoouna aku au ia oe io lakou la, ina ua lohe lakou ia oe.
not to many nations of a dark speech and a hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Truly, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened to thee.
7 Aka, aole e hoolohe ka ohana a Iseraela ia oe, no ka mea, aole lakou e hoolohe mai ia'u: no ka mea, ua pau ka ohana a Iseraela i ka hookano a me ka naau paakiki.
But the house of Israel will not hearken to thee, for they will not hearken to me. For the whole house of Israel is brazen-faced and stiff-hearted.
8 Eia hoi, ua hooolea au i kou wahi maka e ku e i ko lakou mau wahi maka, a me kou lae e ku e i ko lakou mau lae.
Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.
9 Me he daimana la a oi aku ka oolea mamua o ko ka pohakupaea i hana aku au i kou lae: mai makau aku ia lakou, mai pilihua hoi oe i ko lakou helehelena, no ka mea, he ohana kipi lakou.
As an adamant, harder than flint, have I made thy forehead; fear them not, nor be dismayed at their looks; for they are a rebellious house.
10 Olelo mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, o na huaolelo a pau a'u e olelo aku ai ia oe, oia kau e hookomo i kou naau, a e hoolohe hoi me kou mau pepeiao.
Moreover, he said to me: Son of man, all my words, which I shall speak to thee, receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears!
11 E eu oe e hele aku i ka poe pio i na keiki a kou poe kauaka, a e olelo aku ia lakou, a e hai aku ia lakou, Penei ka olelo ana a Iehova ka Haku; ina paha e lohe lakou, a ina paha e lohe ole lakou.
And go, get thee to them of the captivity, to the children of thy people, and speak to them, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
12 Alaila kaikai ae la ka uhane ia'u, a lohe iho la au mahope iho o'u i ka leo me he kamumu o ka hele nui ana la, e i ana, E hoomaikaiia'e ka nani o Iehova mai kona wahi ae;
Then the spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the sound, as of a great rushing, saying, “Praised be the majesty of Jehovah from his place!”
13 A me ke kamumu ana o na eheu o na mea ola i hoopa aku kekahi i kekahi, a me ke kamumu pu ana o na huila me lakou, a me ke kamumu ana o ka hele nui ana.
I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures, that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even a noise of a great rushing.
14 Kaikai ae la hoi ka uhane ia'u, a lawe aku ia'u, a hele au me ke kaumaha loa a me ka wela o ko'u uhane; aka, ua kau ikaika mai ka lima o Iehova maluna iho o'u.
So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of Jehovah was strong upon me.
15 Alaila hele au i ka poe pio ma Telabiba, e noho ana ma ka muliwai Kebara, a noho iho la ma ko lakou wahi i noho ai, a noho pilihua no au malaila iwaena o lakou i na la ehiku.
Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib, that dwelt by the river Chebar; and I dwelt where they dwelt; I even dwelt astonished among them seven days.
16 Eia keia, i ka pau ana o na la ehiku, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And at the end of seven days, the word of Jehovah came to me, and said:
17 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua hoolilo au ia oe i kiai no ka ohana a Iseraela; nolaila e hoolohe i ka olelo ma kuu waha, a e ao aku ia lakou, na'u aku.
Son of man, I have set thee as a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore hear the word from my mouth, and warn them from me!
18 Aia olelo aku au i ke kanaka hewa, E make io no oe; a ao ole aku oe ia ia, aole olelo ia ia e ao ia ia e haalele i kona aoao hewa, e hoola ia ia; e make no ua mea hewa la iloko o kona hewa; aka, e hoopai no au i kona koko ma kou lima.
When I say to the wicked, Thou shalt surely die! and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he may live, that wicked man shall die for his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
19 Aka, ina ao aku oe i ke kanaka hewa, aole nae ia i huli, mai kana hana hewa ana, aole hoi mai kona aoao hewa mai, e make no ia iloko o kona hewa; aka, ua hoopakele oe i kou uhane iho.
Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he shall die for his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul.
20 Eia hoi, ina i huli ae ke kanaka pono mai kona pono ae, a hana hoi ma ka hewa, a waiho iho au i ka mea e hina ai imua ona, e make no ia; no kau ao ole aku ia ia, iloko o kona hewa e make ai no ia, aole hoi e hoomanaoia kona pono ana i hana'i: aka, e hoopai aku au i kona koko ma kou lima.
Again, when a righteous man turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, and he shall die because thou hast not given him warning, he will die for his sin; and his righteousness which he hath done will not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
21 Aka, ina i ao aku oe i ka mea pono, i ole e hana hewa, a hana hewa ole hoi ka mea pono, e ola io no ia, no ka mea, ua aoia'ku ai: a ua hoopakele hoi oe i kou uhane iho.
Yet if thou warn the righteous man, that he sin not, and the righteous man doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he hath received warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.
22 A kau mai la ka lima o Iehova maluna o'u malaila; a olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ka oe iluna e hele aku i ka papu, a malaila e kamailio ai au me oe.
And the hand of Jehovah was there upon me, and he said to me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and there will I speak with thee.
23 Alaila ku ae la au iluna a hele aku la i ka papu, aia hoi, ku mai la ka nani o Iehova malaila, e like me ka nani a'u i ike ai ma ka muliwai Kebara a moe iho la au ilalo ke alo.
Then I arose, and went forth into the plain, and lo, the glory of Jehovah stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.
24 Alaila komo mai la ka uhane iloko o'u, a hooku mai la ia'u ma kuu mau wawae, a kamailio me an, a i mai la la'u, E hele oe a papani ia oe iho iloko o kou hale;
Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet. And he spake with me, and said to me: Go, shut thyself within thy house.
25 Aka, o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, ea, e kau lakou i kaula maluna ou, a e hoopaa lakou ia oe me ia, aole hoi oe o hele iwaho iwaena o lakou.
And behold, O son of man, bands shall be put upon thee, and thou shalt be bound therewith; and thou shalt not go out among them.
26 A e hoopili ae au i kou alelo i ke aluna o kou waha, a e lilo oe i mea leo ole, aole hoi oe he mea ao aku ia lakou; no ka mea, he ohana kipi lakou.
And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.
27 Aka, i ka wa e olelo aku ai au ia oe, e wehe au i kou waha, a e olelo aku oe ia lakou. Ke i mai nei o Iehova ka Haku, O ka mea lohe, e lohe ia, a o ka mea hoolohe ole, e hoolohe ole no ia; no ka mea, he ohana kipi lakou.
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: He that will hear, let him hear, and he that will forbear, let him forbear; for they are a rebellious house.
