Ezekiela 37
1 KAU mai la ka lima o Iehova maluna o'u, a lawe ae ia'u iwaho ma ka Uhane o Iehova, a hooku iho ia'u ilalo mawaenakonu o ka papu, ua paapu ia i na iwi.
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me out by His Spirit and set me down in the middle of the valley, and it was full of bones.
2 A hoohele ia'u e maalo ma ia mau mea a puni; aia hoi he nui wale o lakou ma ka papu, aia hoi, ua maloo loa lakou.
He led me all around among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, and indeed, they were very dry.
3 A ninau mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hiki anei i keia mau iwi ke ola? I aku la hoi au, E Iehova ka Haku, o oe no ka i ike.
Then He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones come to life?” “O Lord GOD,” I replied, “only You know.”
4 Olelo hou mai la oia ia'u, E wanaua oe i keia mau iwi, a e olelo aku ia lakou, E na iwi maloo, e hoolohe i ka olelo a Iehova.
And He said to me, “Prophesy concerning these bones and tell them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD!
5 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei i keia mau iwi; Eia hoi, e hookomo au i ke ea iloko o oukou, a e ola na oukou.
This is what the Lord GOD says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will come to life.
6 A e kau iho au i na olona maluna o oukou, a lawe mai au i ka io maluna o oukou, a e uhi ia oukou i ka ili, a e hookomo ae au i ke ea iloko o oukou, a e ola oukou; a e ike no oukou owau no Iehova ka Haku.
I will attach tendons to you and make flesh grow upon you and cover you with skin. I will put breath within you so that you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
7 A wanana aku la au e like me au i kauohaia mai ai: a i kuu wanana ana, kawewe ae la, aia hoi, he nauwe ana, a hui ae na iwi, ka iwi me kona iwi.
So I prophesied as I had been commanded. And as I prophesied, there was suddenly a noise, a rattling, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
8 A i ko'u nana ana'ku, aia hoi, pii mai no na olona a me ka io maluna o lakou, a uhi mai ka ili ia lakou maluna; aka, aole ea iloko o lakou.
As I looked on, tendons appeared on them, flesh grew, and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them.
9 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E wanana oe i ka makani, e wanana, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, a e olelo i ka makani, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, E hele mai, e ka makani, mai na makani eha mai, a e ha iho maluna o keia poe make i ka pepehiia, i ola lakou.
Then He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and tell the breath that this is what the Lord GOD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, so that they may live!”
10 A wanana aku la au e like me kana i kauoha mai ai ia'u, a komo mai ke ea iloko o lakou, a ola ae la lakou, a ku ae la lakou iluna ma ko lakou mau wawae, he mau koa lehulehu loa.
So I prophesied as He had commanded me, and the breath entered them, and they came to life and stood on their feet—a vast army.
11 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, o keia poe iwi, o ka ohana a pau ia a Iseraela; aia hoi, ke olelo nei lakou, Uamaloo ko kakou mau iwi, a ua lilo ko kakou mea i manaolana ai; ua oki loa ia'e nei kakou.
Then He said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Look, they are saying, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope has perished; we are cut off.’
12 Nolaila e wanana aku, a e olelo aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, Aia hoi, e ko'u poe kanaka, e huai ae au i ko oukou mau luakupapau, a e hoopii mai au ia oukou mai loko mai o ko oukou mau luakupapau, a e lawe ae ia oukou i ka aina o ka Iseraela.
Therefore prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘O My people, I will open your graves and bring you up from them, and I will bring you back to the land of Israel.
13 Alaila e ike oukou owau no Iehova, i ka wa i huai ai au i ko oukou mau luakupapau, e ko'u poe kanaka, a lawe mai hoi au ia oukou mai loko mai o ko oukou mau luakupapau;
Then you, My people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them.
14 A hookomo i kuu Uhane iloko o oukou, a e ola oukou, a e hoonoho au ia oukou ma ko oukou aina; alaila e ike oukou owau no Iehova ka i olelo a e hana aku hoi, wahi a Iehova.
I will put My Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will do it, declares the LORD.’”
15 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
16 A o oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e lawe oe i ka laau nou, a e kakau iho maluna iho ona, No Iuda, a no na mamo a Iseraela kona mau hoa; alaila e lawe i kekahi laau, a e kakau iho maluna ona, No Iosepa, ka laau o ka Eperaima, a no ka ohana a pau a Iseraela kona mau hoa.
“And you, son of man, take a single stick and write on it: ‘Belonging to Judah and to the Israelites associated with him.’ Then take another stick and write on it: ‘Belonging to Joseph—the stick of Ephraim—and to all the house of Israel associated with him.’
17 A e hookui ia laua i kekahi i kekahi i laau hookahi; a e lilo laua i hookahi iloko o kou lima.
Then join them together into one stick, so that they become one in your hand.
18 Aia olelo na keiki a kanaka ia oe, e ninau ana, Aole anei oe e hoike mai ia makou i kou ma keia mau mea?
When your people ask you, ‘Won’t you explain to us what you mean by these?’
19 E olelo aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e lawe au i ka laau o Iosepa, ka mea iloko o ka lima o Eperaima, a me na ohana a Iseraela kona mau hoa, a e hui aku au ia lakou me ia, me ka laau hoi o Iuda, a e hoolilo au ia lakou i laau hookahi, a lilo lakou i hookahi iloko o ko'u lima.
you are to tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel associated with him, and I will put them together with the stick of Judah. I will make them into a single stick, and they will become one in My hand.’
20 A e waiho no na laau au e kakau ai iloko o kou lima imua o ko lakou alo.
When the sticks on which you write are in your hand and in full view of the people,
21 A e olelo aku oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e lawe mai au i ka poe mamo a Iseraela mai waena mai o na lahuikanaka kahi i hele aku ai lakou, a e houluulu au ia lakou ma kela aoao keia aoao, a e lawe mai ia lakou iloko o ko lakou aina.
you are to tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will take the Israelites out of the nations to which they have gone, and I will gather them from all around and bring them into their own land.
22 A e hoolilo au ia lakou i lahuikanaka hookahi ma ka aina maluna o na mauna o ka Iseraela; a no lakou a pau he alii hookahi no; aole alua lahuikanaka hou aku lakou, aole loa hoi e mokuahana hou aku i elua aupuni.
I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel, and one king will rule over all of them. Then they will no longer be two nations and will never again be divided into two kingdoms.
23 Aole hoi e hoohaumia hou aku lakou ia lakou iho me ko lakou mau akuakii, aole hoi me ko lakou mau mea inainaia, aole hoi me kahi o ka lakou lawehala ana: aka, a e hoola au ia lakou mai loko mai o ko lakou mau wahi i noho ai, i hana hewa ai lakou, a e hoomaemae au ia lakou: a e lilo lakou i kanaka no'u, a owau hoi i Akua no lakou.
They will no longer defile themselves with their idols or detestable images, or with any of their transgressions. I will save them from all their apostasies by which they sinned, and I will cleanse them. Then they will be My people, and I will be their God.
24 A e lilo ka'u kauwa o Davida i alii maluna o lakou, a no lakou a pau he kahuhipa hookahi; e hele hoi lakou ma ko'u mau kanawai, a malama hoi lakou i ka'u mau kauoha, a e hana hoi malaila.
My servant David will be king over them, and there will be one shepherd for all of them. They will follow My ordinances and keep and observe My statutes.
25 A e noho lakou ma ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai i kuu kauwa ia Iakoba, kahi i noho ai ko oukou mau makua; a e noho lakou malaila, o lakou, a me ka lakou poe keiki, a me ka poe keiki a ka lakou poe keiki a mau loa aku; a e mau ana no ko ka'u kauwa ko Davida alii ana no lakou.
They will live in the land that I gave to My servant Jacob, where your fathers lived. They will live there forever with their children and grandchildren, and My servant David will be their prince forever.
26 A e hana au i ka berita hoomalu me lakou, e lilo ia i berita mau loa me lakou; a e hoonoho au ia lakou, a e hoonui au ia lakou, a e hoonoho au i kuu wahi hoano iwaena o lakou a mau loa.
And I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant. I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary among them forever.
27 A o ko'u halelewa kekahi me lakou; a owau auanei ko lakou Akua, a o lakou hoi ko'u poe kanaka.
My dwelling place will be with them; I will be their God, and they will be My people.
28 A e ike hoi na lahuikanaka, owau o Iehova ka i hoomaemae i ka Iseraela, i ka mau loa ana o ko'u wahi hoano iwaenakonu o lakou.
Then the nations will know that I the LORD sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary is among them forever.’”
