Ezekiela 36
1 A O oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e wanana oe i na mauna o ka Iseraela, a e olelo aku, E na mauna o ka Iseraela, e hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova.
“And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say: O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD.
2 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; No ka mea, ua olelo ku e ka enemi ia oe, Aia la, no makou no na wahi kiekie kahiko, he waiwai no makou:
This is what the Lord GOD says: Because the enemy has said of you, ‘Aha! The ancient heights have become our possession,’
3 Nolaila, e wauana, a o olelo aku, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; No ko lakou hooneoneo ana ia oukou, a ua moni iho lakou ia oukou ma kela aoao keia aoao, i lilo oukou i waiwai no ke koena o na lahuikanaka, a ua laweia ma na lehelehe o na mea kamailio, a ua lilo i mea hoinoia e kanaka:
therefore prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Because they have made you desolate and have trampled you on every side, so that you became a possession of the rest of the nations and were taken up in slander by the lips of their talkers,
4 Nolaila, e na mauna o ka Iseraela, e hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova ka Haku; penei ka olelo ana a Iehova ka Haku i na mauna, a i na puu, a i na muliwai, a i na papu, a i na wahi neoneo, a i na kulanakauhale i haaleleia, i lilo i waiwai pio, a i mea e heneheneia i ke koena o na lahuikanaka e hoopuni mai ana:
therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD. This is what the Lord GOD says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, to the desolate ruins and abandoned cities, which have become a spoil and a mockery to the rest of the nations around you.
5 Nolaila, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Oiaio, i ke ahi o ko'u lili i olelo ku e aku ai au i ke koena o na lahuikanaka, ia Edoma a pau, na mea i wae aku i kuu aina i waiwai no lakou, me ka hauoli o ka naau a pau, me ka manao huhu e hoolei aku ia i waiwai pio.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Surely in My burning zeal I have spoken against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, who took My land as their own possession with wholehearted joy and utter contempt, so that its pastureland became plunder.
6 Nolaila, e wanana aku no ka aina o ka Iseraela, a e olelo aku i na mauna, a i na puu, a i na muliwai, a i na papu, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Uaku, penei; Eia hoi, i kuu lili a me kuu ukiuki i oielo aku ai au no ko oukou halihali ana i ka hoinoia e na iahuikauaka.
Therefore, prophesy concerning the land of Israel and tell the mountains and hills, the ravines and valleys, that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I have spoken in My burning zeal because you have endured the reproach of the nations.
7 Nolaila, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Ua hapai ae nei au i ko'u lima, oiaio, o na iahuikanaka e hoopuni aua ia oukou, e halihaii no lakou i ko lakou hoinoia.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: I have sworn with an uplifted hand that surely the nations around you will endure reproach of their own.
8 Aka, o oukou, e na mauna o ka Iseraela, e hooopuu ae oukou i ko oukou mau lala, a e haawi hoi i ka oukou hua i ko'u poe kanaka Iseraela; no ka mea, eia'e lakou kokoke hiki mai.
But you, O mountains of Israel, will produce branches and bear fruit for My people Israel, for they will soon come home.
9 No ka mea, eia hoi au no oukou, e haliu au ia oukou, a e mahiia no oukou a e luluia'e.
For behold, I am on your side; I will turn toward you, and you will be tilled and sown.
10 A e hoonui au i na kanaka maluna o oukou, ka ohana a pau a Iseraela, pau. pu ia; a e nohoia'e na kulanakauhale, a e kukulu hou ia'e na wahi neoneo.
I will multiply the people upon you—the house of Israel in its entirety. The cities will be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt.
11 A e hoonui au i na kanaka me na holoholona maluna o oukou; a e mahuahua'e lakou a e hoohua mai i ka hua; a e hoonoho au ia oukou iloko o ko oukou noho kahiko ana, a e oi kuu hoomaikai ana ia oukou mamua o ko oukou hoomaka ana; a e ike oukou owau no Iehova.
I will fill you with people and animals, and they will multiply and be fruitful. I will make you as inhabited as you once were, and I will make you prosper more than before. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
12 Oiaio, e hoohele aku au i na kanaka maluna o oukou, ko'u poe kanaka hoi o Iseraela; a e loaa oe ia lakou, a e lilo oe i waiwai uo lakou, aole loa hoi oe e hoonele hou aku ia lakou.
Yes, I will cause My people Israel to walk upon you; they will possess you, and you will be their inheritance, and you will no longer deprive them of their children.
13 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; No ka lakou olelo ana ia oukou, ua ai oe i kanaka, a ua hoonele oe i kou mau lahuikanaka;
For this is what the Lord GOD says: Because people say to you, ‘You devour men and deprive your nation of its children,’
14 Nolaila, aole oe e ai hou aku i kanaka, aole hoi e hoohaule hou aku i kou mau lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
therefore you will no longer devour men or deprive your nation of its children, declares the Lord GOD.
15 Aole hoi au e hoolohe hou ia oe i ka hoinoia e na lahuikanaka, aole hoi oe e halihali hou i ka olelo ino a kanaka, aole hoi oe e hoohaule hou i kou mau lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
I will no longer allow the taunts of the nations to be heard against you, and you will no longer endure the reproach of the peoples or cause your nation to stumble, declares the Lord GOD.”
16 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
17 E ke keiki a ke kanaka, i ka wa i noho ai ka ohana a Iseraela i ko lakou aina ponoi, ua hoohaumia lakou ia ia me ko lakou hele ana a me ka lakou hana ana; me he haumia la o ka wahine i hookaaweleia'e ko lakou hele ana imua o'u.
“Son of man, when the people of Israel lived in their land, they defiled it by their own ways and deeds. Their behavior before Me was like the uncleanness of a woman’s impurity.
18 Nolaila, ninini aku la au i ko'u ukiuki maluna o lakou, no ke koko a lakou i hookahe ai maluna o ka aina, a no ko lakou mau akuakii i hoohaumia ai iakou ia ia.
So I poured out My wrath upon them because of the blood they had shed on the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols.
19 Ua hoopuehu aku au ia lakou iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a ua hele liilii lakou ma na aina; mamuli o ko lakou hele ana, a mamuli o ka lakou haua ana i hoopai aku ai au ia lakou.
I dispersed them among the nations, and they were scattered throughout the lands. I judged them according to their ways and deeds.
20 A komo lakou iwaena o na lahuikanaka, kahi i hele aku ai lakou, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u inoa hoauo, i ka lakou olelo ana ia lakou, Eia ka poe kanaka o Iehova, a ua puka lakou mai kona aina aku.
And wherever they went among the nations, they profaned My holy name, because it was said of them, ‘These are the people of the LORD, yet they had to leave His land.’
21 A ua minamina au i ko'u inoa hoano a ka ohana a Lseraela i hoohaumia ai iwaena o na lahuikanaka, kahi i hele aku ai lakou.
But I had concern for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations to which they had gone.
22 Nolaila, e olelo aku i ka ohana a Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aole no oukou i hana aku ai au i keia, e ka ohana a Iseraela, aka, no ko'u inoa hoano a oukou i hoohaumia ai iwaena o na Iahuikanaka, kahi i hele aku ai oukou.
Therefore tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: It is not for your sake that I will act, O house of Israel, but for My holy name, which you profaned among the nations to which you went.
23 A e hoano iho i ko'u inoa nui i hoohaumia ia iwaeua o na lahuikanaka, ka mea a oukou i hoohaumia ai iwaena o lakou; a o ike na lahuikauaka owau no Iehova, wahi a Iehova, ka Haku, aia hoanoia au e oukou imua o ko lakou mau maka.
I will show the holiness of My great name, which has been profaned among the nations—the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, declares the Lord GOD, when I show My holiness in you before their eyes.
24 No ka mea, lawe mai au ia oukou mai loko mai o na lahuikanaka, a e houluulu au ia oukou mai na aina a pau mai, a e lawe mai au ia oukou i ko oukou aina.
For I will take you from among the nations and gather you out of all the countries, and I will bring you back into your own land.
25 Alaila, e pipi aku ai au i ka wai maemae maluna o oukou, a e maemae hoi oukou: i ko oukou haumia a pau, a me ko oukou mau akuakii a pau, e hoomaemae aku ai au ia oukou.
I will also sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. I will cleanse you from all your impurities and all your idols.
26 He naau hou no hoi ka'u e haawi aku ai ia oukou, a he uhane hou no hoi ka'u e uhao ai iloko o oukou; a e lawe ae au i ka naau pohaku mai loko ae o ko oukou io, a e haawi aku au i ka naau io ia oukou.
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
27 A e hookomo hoi au i kuu Uhane iloko o oukou, a e hana aku au ia oukou e hele ma ko'u mau kanawai, a e malama oukou i ka'u mau kauoha, a e hana malaila.
And I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes and to carefully observe My ordinances.
28 A e noho no oukou ma ka aina au i haawi aku ai i ko oukou poe makua; a lilo oukou i poe kanaka no'u, a owau hoi ko oukou Akua.
Then you will live in the land that I gave your forefathers; you will be My people, and I will be your God.
29 E hoola hoi au ia oukou mai ko oukou mau haumia ana; a e kahea aku au i palaoa, a e hoomahuahua ia mea, aole hoi au e kau i ka wi maluna o oukou.
I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will summon the grain and make it plentiful, and I will not bring famine upon you.
30 Alaila e hoonui au i ka hua o ka laau, a me ka mea ulu o ka mahina ai, i ole e loaa hou ia oukou ka hoinoia no ka wi iwaena o na lahuikanaka.
I will also make the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field plentiful, so that you will no longer bear reproach among the nations on account of famine.
31 Alaila e hoomanao oukou i ko oukou mau aoao hewa, a me ka oukou mau hana pono ole, a e hoowahawaha iho oukou ia oukou iho i ko oukou mau maka iho, no ko oukou mau hewa, a me ko oukou mau mea iuaiuaia.
Then you will remember your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your iniquities and abominations.
32 Aole hoi no oukou e hana aku ai au i keia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, e ikeia ia e oukou; e hilahila, a e pilihua hoi oukou no ko oukou mau aoao iho, e ka ohana a Iseraela.
It is not for your sake that I will act, declares the Lord GOD—let it be known to you. Be ashamed and disgraced for your ways, O house of Israel!
33 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei: I ka la i pau ai oukou i ka hoomaemaeia e au i ko oukou mau hewa a pau, o hoonoho no hoi au ia oukou iloko o ko oukou mau kulanakauhale; a e kukulu hou ia na wahi neoneo.
This is what the Lord GOD says: On the day I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be resettled and the ruins to be rebuilt.
34 A e mahiia ka aina neoneo, ua moe neoneo nae imua o na maka o ka poe a pau i maalo ae.
The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through.
35 A o olelo lakou, O keia aina i neoneo aku, ua like ia me ka mala Edena, a o na kulanakauhale i haaleleia, a i neoneo aku, a i hokaiia, ua paa i ka paia, a ua nohoia no hoi.
Then they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden. The cities that were once ruined, desolate, and destroyed are now fortified and inhabited.’
36 Alaila o na lahuikanaka i koe a Puni oukou, e ike lakou, owau no Iehova ka i kukulu hou i na wahi i hokaiia, a i kanu hoi i na wahi i neoneo; owau, o Iehova ka i olelo aku, a hana aku no hoi au ia.
Then the nations around you that remain will know that I, the LORD, have rebuilt what was destroyed, and I have replanted what was desolate. I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will do it.
37 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E ninauia hoi au no keia e ka ohana a Iseraela, e hana aku ia mea no lakou; e hoonui aku au ia lakou i kanaka me he ohana hipa la.
This is what the Lord GOD says: Once again I will hear the plea of the house of Israel and do for them this: I will multiply their people like a flock.
38 Me he ohana hoano la, e like me ka ohana o Ierusalema, i kona mau ahaaina hoano, pela e paapu ai i na ohana kauaka na kulanakauhale i neoneo; a e ike no lakou owau no Iehova.
Like the numerous flocks for sacrifices at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts, so the ruined cities will be filled with flocks of people. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
