< Ezekiela 34 >

1 HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana ku e aku oe i na kahuhipa a ka Iseraela, e wanana hoi, a e olelo aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku i ua kahuhipa, penei; Auwe na kahuhipa o ka Iseraela, na mea e hanai ana ia lakou iho! aole anei he pono ke hanai na kahuhipa i ka ohana?
“Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the shepherds of Israel, who only feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed their flock?
3 Ke ai nei oukou i ka momona, a ke hoaahu nei oukou ia oukou iho me ka huluhulu, a ua pepehi oukou i na mea kupaluia; aka, aole oukou i hanai i ka ohana.
You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened sheep, but you do not feed the flock.
4 Aole oukou i hooikaika i ka mea nawaliwali, aole hoi oukou i lapaau i ka mea mai, aole hoi oukou i wahi i ka mea hai, aole hoi oukou i hoihoi mai i ka mea i kipakuia'ku, aole hoi oukou i imi i ka mea nalowale; aka, me ka lalau wale, a me ke aloha ole i hoalii ai, oukou maluna o lakou.
You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bound up the injured, brought back the strays, or searched for the lost. Instead, you have ruled them with violence and cruelty.
5 A ua hele liilii lakou no ke kahuhipa ole; a ua lilo lakou i ai na na holoholona a pau o ke kula, i ko lakou hoopuehuia'ku.
They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts.
6 Ua auwana ka'u mau hipa maluna o na mauna a pau, a maluna hoi o kela puu keia puu kiekie; oia, ua hoopuehuia ko'u ohana ma ka ili o ka honua a pau. aohe mea huli, aohe mea imi aku ia lakou.
My flock went astray on all the mountains and every high hill. They were scattered over the face of all the earth, with no one to search for them or seek them out.’
7 Nolaila, e na kahuhipa, e hoolohe i ka olelo a Iehova;
Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
8 Ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, oiaio, no ka lilo ana o ka'u ohana i waiwai pio, a no ka lilo ana o ka'u ohana i ai na ua holoholona a pau o ke kula, no ke kahuhipa ole, aole hoi i imi kuu mau kahuhipa i ka'u ohana, aka, ua hanai na kahuhipa ia lakou iho, aole hoi i hanai i ka'u ohana;
‘As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because My flock lacks a shepherd and has become prey and food for every wild beast, and because My shepherds did not search for My flock but fed themselves instead,
9 Nolaila, e na kahuhipa, e hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova;
therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD!’
10 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, Eia hoi, ke ku o nei au i na kahuhipa; a e kii aku au i ka'u ohana ma ko lakou lima, a e hooki au i ko lakou hanai aua i ka ohana, aole hoi e hanai hou aku na kahuhipa ia lakou iho: no ka mea, e hoopakele au i ka'u ohaua i ko lakou waha, i ole lakou e lilo i ai na lakou.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will demand from them My flock and remove them from tending the flock, so that they can no longer feed themselves. For I will deliver My flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.’
11 No ka mea, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Eia hoi, owau, e imi no wau i ka'u mau hipa, a huli hoi ia lakou.
For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I Myself will search for My flock and seek them out.
12 Me ke kahuhipa i imi ai i kana ohana i ka la i noho ai ia iwaena konu o kana poe hipa, i hele liilii; pela e imi aku ai au i ka'u poe hipa, a e hoihoi mai ia lakou, mai loko mai o na wahi a pau i hoopuehuia'i lakou, i ka la paapu i na ao a me ka pouli.
As a shepherd looks for his scattered sheep when he is among the flock, so I will look for My flock. I will rescue them from all the places to which they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness.
13 A e lawe mai au ia lakou mai na lahuikanaka mai, a e houluulu ia lakou ma na aina mai, a e lawe mai ia lakou i ko lakou aina iho, a e hanai au ia lakou maluna o na mauna o ka Iseraela, ma na muliwai hoi a ma na wahi i nohoia a pau o ka aina.
I will bring them out from the peoples, gather them from the countries, and bring them into their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines, and in all the settlements of the land.
14 Ma ka aina maikai e hanai aku ai au ia lakou, a maluna o na mauna kiekie o ka Iseraela auanei ko lakou pa; malaila lakou e moe ai iloko o ka pahipa maikai, a ma ka aina momona e ai ai lakou maluna o na mauna o ka Iseraela.
I will feed them in good pasture, and the lofty mountains of Israel will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in a good grazing land; they will feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.
15 E hanai aku au i ka'u ohana, a e hoomoe iho au ia lakou ilalo, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
I will tend My flock and make them lie down, declares the Lord GOD.
16 E imi aku au i ka mea i nalowale, a e hoihoi mai i ka mea i kipakuia'ku, a e wahi aku au i ka mea i hai, a e hooikaika au i ka ka, mea mai; aka, e luku au i ka mea momona a me ka ikaika, a e hanai aku au ia lakou me ka hoopai ana.
I will seek the lost, bring back the strays, bind up the broken, and strengthen the weak; but the sleek and strong I will destroy. I will shepherd them with justice.’
17 A o oukou, e ka'u ohana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, ke hooponopouo nei au iwaena o ka holoholona a me ka holoholona, mawaena hoi o na hipa kane, a me na kao kane.
This is what the Lord GOD says to you, My flock: ‘I will judge between one sheep and another, between the rams and the goats.
18 Ho mea uuku anei ia oukou, ka oukou ai ana i ka ai maikai, a ua hehi iho oukou i ke koena o ka oukou ai me ko oukou mau wawae? a o ko oukou inu ana i ka wai maikai, a hoolepo hoi i ke koena me ko oukou mau wawae?
Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also trample the rest of the pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink the clear waters? Must you also muddy the rest with your feet?
19 A o ka'u ohana, ua ai lakou i ka mea a oukou i hehi ai me ko oukou mau wawae; a ua inu lakou i ka mea a oukou i hoolepo ai me ko oukou mau wawae.
Why must My flock feed on what your feet have trampled, and drink what your feet have muddied?’
20 Nolaila ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku ia lakou, Aia hoi, e hooponopono aku au iwaena o na hipa momona a me na hipa wiwi.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says to them: ‘Behold, I Myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
21 No ka mea, ua hooke aku oukou me ka aoao a me ka pohiwi, a ua hou oukou me ko oukou mau pepeiaohao i na mea mai, a hoopuehu aku oukou ia lakou.
Since you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak ones with your horns until you have scattered them abroad,
22 Nolaila, e hoola au i ka'u ohaua, aole loa aku lakou he waiwai pio; a e hooponopono hoi au iwaena o ka hipa a me ka hipa.
I will save My flock, and they will no longer be prey. I will judge between one sheep and another.
23 A e hoonoho aku au i ke kahuhipa hookahi maluna o lakou, a e hanai oia ia lakou, o ka'u kauwa, o Davida, e hanai oia ia lakou, a oia auanei ko Iakou kahuhipa.
I will appoint over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will feed them. He will feed them and be their shepherd.
24 A owau, o Iehova auanei ke Akua no lakou, a o ka'u kauwa o Davida ke alii iwaena o lakou; na'u na Iehova i olelo aku.
I, the LORD, will be their God, and My servant David will be a prince among them. I, the LORD, have spoken.
25 A e hana au i berita hoomalu me lakou, a e hooki aku au i na holoholona ino mai loko aku o ka aina; a e noho maluhia lakou ma ka waonahele, a e moe hoi maloko o na ululaau.
I will make with them a covenant of peace and rid the land of wild animals, so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the forest.
26 A e hoolilo au ia lakou, a me na wahi e hoopuni ana i kuu puu e hoomaikai ana; a e hoohaule au i ka ua i kona manawa, a he mau ua auanei o ka hoomaikai ana.
I will make them and the places around My hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season—showers of blessing.
27 A e hoohua mai ka laau o ke kula i koua hua, a e haawi mai ka honua i kona mea ulu, a e noho maluhia lakou ma ko lakou aina, a e ike hoi owau no Iehova, aia moku ia'u ua kaula o ka lakou auamo, a hoopakele ae ia lakou mai loko ae o ka lima o ka poe i hookauwa ia lakou na lakou iho.
The trees of the field will give their fruit, and the land will yield its produce; My flock will be secure in their land. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bars of their yoke and delivered them from the hands that enslaved them.
28 Aole loa aku lakou he waiwai pio no na lahuikanaka, aole hoi e ai na holoholona o ka aina ia lakou; aka, e noho maluhia lakou, aohe mea nana lakou e hooweliweli.
They will no longer be prey for the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not consume them. They will dwell securely, and no one will frighten them.
29 E hooku ae au iluna i ka mea kanu i kaulana no lakou, aole no hoi lakou e pau e i ka pololi ma ka aina, aole e hilahila hou i ka hoinoia e na lahuikanaka.
And I will raise up for them a garden of renown, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations.
30 Pela e ike ai lakou owau o Iehova ko lakou Akua kekahi pu me lakou, a o lakou, o ka ohana a Iseraela, ko'u poe kanaka, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
Then they will know that I, the LORD their God, am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people,’ declares the Lord GOD.
31 A o oukou, kuu ohana, ka okana o kuu aina, he poe kanaka; a owau ko oukou Akua, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
‘You are My flock, the sheep of My pasture, My people, and I am your God,’ declares the Lord GOD.”
