< Ezekiela 4 >

1 A OOE, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e lawe oe i pohaku ula nou, a e waiho iho ia imua ou, ae kakau iho oe i ke kulanakauhale malalo, o Ierusalema hoi;
“Now you, son of man, take a brick, place it before you, and draw on it the city of Jerusalem.
2 A hoopuni ku e ia ia, a e hana i pakaua imua ona, a e hana i puu hoi e ku e ia ia, a e hoomoana ku e ia ia, a e hoonoho i na hipakaue wawahi e ku e ia ia a puni.
Then lay siege against it: Construct a siege wall, build a ramp to it, set up camps against it, and place battering rams around it on all sides.
3 A e lawe oe i pa hao nou, a e waiho iho i paku hao iwaho iwaena ou a me ke kulanakauhale; a e hooku e oe i kou wahi maka ia ia, a hoomoana ku e ia ia, a e hoonoho oe i ke kaua ku e ia ia; he hoailona ia no ka ohana a Iseraela.
Then take an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between yourself and the city. Turn your face toward it so that it is under siege, and besiege it. This will be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 A e moe iho oe ma kou aoao hema, a e kau i ka hewa o ka ohana a Iseraela maluna iho; e like me ka helu'na o na la e moe ai oe ma ia, e hali ai oe i ko lakou hewa.
Then lie down on your left side and place the iniquity of the house of Israel upon yourself. You are to bear their iniquity for the number of days you lie on your side.
5 No ka mea, ua kau aku maluna iho ou i na makahiki o ko lakou hewa, mamuli o ka helu ana o na la ekolu haueri a me kanaiwa; pela e hali ai oe i ka hewa o ka ohana a Iseraela.
For I have assigned to you 390 days, according to the number of years of their iniquity. So you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
6 Aia hoopau ae oe ia mau mea, e moe hou oe ma kou aoao akau, a e hali oe i ka hewa o ka ohana a Iuda i hookahi kanaha la: ua hoomaopopo au nou i hookahi la no ka makahiki hookahi.
When you have completed these days, lie down again, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have assigned to you 40 days, a day for each year.
7 Nolaila e hooku pono oe i kou wahi maka i ka hoopuni ana ia Ierusalema, a e weheia kou lima, a e wanana ku e oe nona.
You must turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and prophesy against it.
8 Aia hoi, e kau aku au i na mea o paa ai maluna ou, aole oe e kaa ae mai kekahi aoao a i kekahi aoao, a hoopau oe i na la o ka hoopuni ana.
Now behold, I will tie you up with ropes so you cannot turn from side to side until you have finished the days of your siege.
9 E lawe hoi oe nou i palaoa, a me ka bale, a me na papapa, a me na lenetila a me ka mileta, a me ka peleta, a e hahao ia mau mea iloko o ka ipu hookahi, a e hana oe ia i berena nau, ma ka helu'na o na la e moe ai oe ma kou aoao, i na la ekolu haneri a me kanaiwa e ai ai oe ia mea.
But take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt; put them in a single container and make them into bread for yourself. This is what you are to eat during the 390 days you lie on your side.
10 A o kau ai au e ai ai, ma ke kaupaonaia, iwakalua sekela i ka la hookahi; i kela manawa, i keia manawa e at ai oe ia.
You are to weigh out twenty shekels of food to eat each day, and you are to eat it at set times.
11 E inu hoi i ka wai ma ko ana ana, o ka hapa ono o ka hina; i kela manawa i keia manawae e inu ai oe.
You are also to measure out a sixth of a hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at set times.
12 E ai hoi oe ia me he mau papa bale la, a e pulehu oe ia me ka lepo i puka ae mailoko ae o kanaka, imua o ko lakou alo.
And you shall eat the food as you would a barley cake, after you bake it over dried human excrement in the sight of the people.”
13 I mai la hoi o Iehova, Pela e ai ai na mamo a Iseraela i ka lakou berena haumia iwaena o na lahuikanaka, kahi e kipaku aku ai au ia lakou.
Then the LORD said, “This is how the Israelites will eat their defiled bread among the nations to which I will banish them.”
14 Alaila olelo aku au, Auwe, e Iehova ka Haku! oiaio, aole i hoohaumiaia ko'u uhane; no ka mea, mai ko'u wa kamalii mai a hiki i keia manawa, aole au i ai i kauwahi o ka mea i make wale, aole hoi o ka mea i haehaeia e na holoholona, aole hoi i komo ka io haumia iloko o kuu waha.
“Ah, Lord GOD,” I said, “I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts. No unclean meat has ever entered my mouth.”
15 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, Eia hoi, aia haawi au i ka lepo bipi no ka lepo kanaka, a e hoomakaukau oe i kau berena me ia.
“Look,” He replied, “I will let you use cow dung instead of human excrement, and you may bake your bread over that.”
16 A olelo hou mai no oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, eia hoi e uhaki au i ke kookoo o ka berena maloko o Ierusalema; a e ai lakou i ka berena ma ke kaupaona ana, a e inu hoi lakou i ka wai ma ke ana ana, a me ka pilihua.
Then He told me, “Son of man, I am going to cut off the supply of food in Jerusalem. They will anxiously eat bread rationed by weight, and in despair they will drink water by measure.
17 I nele lakou i ka berena ole a me ka wai ole, a e pilihua kekahi me kekahi, a e olala ae no hoi lakou no ko lakou hewa.
So they will lack food and water; they will be appalled at the sight of one another wasting away in their iniquity.
