< 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.
“Now you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say, 'Mountains of Israel, listen to the word of Yahweh.
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:
The Lord Yahweh says this: The enemy has said about you, “Aha!” and “The ancient high places 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 say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Because of your desolation and because of the attacks that came on you from all sides, you have become a possession of the other nations; you have been the subject of slanderous lips and tongues, and of people's stories.
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, mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord Yahweh: The Lord Yahweh says this to the mountains and the high hills, to the streambeds and valleys, to the uninhabited desolations and the forsaken cities that have become plunder and a subject of mocking for the other nations that surround them—
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 the Lord Yahweh says this: I have certainly spoken in the fire of my fury against the other nations, against Edom and all who took my land for themselves as a possession, against all those who had both joy in their heart and disdain in their spirit, as they seized my land that they might claim its pasturelands for themselves.'
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 to the land of Israel and say to the mountains and to the high hills, to the streambeds and to the valleys, 'the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! In my fury and in my anger I am declaring this because you have borne the insults of 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, the Lord Yahweh says this: I myself will lift up my hand to swear that the nations that surround you will certainly carry their own shame.
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, mountains of Israel, you will grow branches and bear fruit for my people Israel, since they will soon come back to you.
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 for you, and I treat you with favor; you will be plowed and sown with seed.
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.
So I will multiply upon you the number of your people, even the whole house of Israel. 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 multiply man and beast on you mountains so that they will multiply and be fruitful. Then I will cause you to be inhabited as you previously were, and I will make you prosper more than you did in the past, for you will know that I am Yahweh.
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.
I will bring men, my people Israel, to walk on you. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance, and you will no longer cause their children to die.
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;
The Lord Yahweh says this: Because they are saying to you, “You devour men, bereaving your nation of 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 not consume people any longer, and you will no longer make your nation mourn their deaths. This is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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.
Nor will I allow you to hear the insults of the nations any longer; you will no longer have to bear the shame of the peoples or cause your nation to fall—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
16 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Then the word of Yahweh 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 house of Israel inhabited their land, they defiled it with their ways and their deeds. Their ways were like the unclean menstruation of a woman before me.
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 fury against them for the blood that they poured out on the land and for their pollution of it by 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 scattered them among the nations; they were dispersed through the lands. I judged them according to their ways and their 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.
Then they went to the nations, and wherever they went, they profaned my holy name when people said of them, 'Are these really the people of Yahweh? For they have been thrown out of 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 compassion for my holy name that the house of Israel had defiled among the nations, when they went there.
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 say to the house of Israel, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: I am not doing this for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations everywhere you have gone.
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.
For I will make my great name holy, which you have profaned among the nations—in the midst of the nations, you profaned it. Then the nations will know that I am Yahweh—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—when you see that I am holy.
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.
I will take you from the nations and gather you from every land, and I will bring you to your 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.
Then I will sprinkle pure water on you so you will be purified from all of your impurities, and I will purify you from all of 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 a new spirit in your innermost parts, and I will take away the heart of stone from your flesh. For I will 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.
I will set my Spirit in you and enable you to walk in my statutes and keep my decrees, so you will do them.
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 inhabit the land that I gave to your ancestors; 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.
For I will save you from all of your uncleanness. I will summon the grain and multiply it. I will no longer put 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 multiply the fruit of the tree and the produce of the field so that you will no longer bear the shame of famine among the nations.
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 think of your wicked ways and your deeds that were not good, and you will show loathing on your faces because of your own sins and your disgusting deeds.
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.
I am not doing this for your sake—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—let this be known to you. So be ashamed and disgraced because of your ways, 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.
The Lord Yahweh says this: On the day that I purify you from all your iniquity, I will cause you to inhabit the cities and to rebuild the ruined places.
34 A e mahiia ka aina neoneo, ua moe neoneo nae imua o na maka o ka poe a pau i maalo ae.
For you will plow the ruined land until it is no longer a ruin before the eyes of all who pass by.
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 was desolate, but it has become like the garden of Eden; the desolate cities and the uninhabited ruins that were torn down 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 other nations around you will know that I am Yahweh, that I built up the ruins and replanted the abandoned places. I am Yahweh. I have declared it 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.
The Lord Yahweh says this: Again I will be asked by the house of Israel to do this for them, to increase them like a flock of people.
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 flock is set apart for sacrifices, like the flock in Jerusalem at her appointed feasts, so will the ruined cities be filled with flocks of people and they will know that I am Yahweh.'”
