Ezekiela 43
1 MAHOPE iho, lawe mai oia ia'u i ka ipuka, i ka ipuka e nana ana i ka hikina:
Then the man brought me back to the gate that faces east,
2 Aia hoi, hele mai la ka nani o ke Akua o ka Iseraela mai ka aoao hikina mai; a o kona leo, ua like ia me ka halulu ana o na wai he nui; a alohilohi ae la ka honua i kona nani.
and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of many waters, and the earth shone with His glory.
3 Ua like hoi ia i ka nana aku me ka hihio a'u i ike ai, ka hihio a'u i ike ai i kuu hele ana mai no ka luku ana i ke kulanakauhale; a ua like na hihio, me ka hihio a'u i ike ai ma ka muliwai Kebara, a haule iho la au ilalo ke alo.
The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when He came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the River Kebar. I fell facedown,
4 Komo ae la ka nani o Iehova iloko o ka hale ma ka aoao o ka ipuka e nana ana i ka hikina.
and the glory of the LORD entered the temple through the gate facing east.
5 Kaikai ae la ka uhane ia'u, a lawe ae hoi ia'u iloko o ka pahale maloko; aia hoi, ua hoopiha ka nani o Iehova i ka hale.
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
6 A lohe aku la au ia ia, e olelo mai ana ia'u mailoko mai o ka hale; a ku mai la he kanaka me au.
While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple,
7 A olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, o kahi o kuu noho moi, a me kahi o na poli o kuu mau wawae, kahi e noho ai au iwaenakonu o na mamo a Iseraela a mau loa; a o ko'u inoa hoano, aole loa ka ohana a Iseraela e hoohaumia hou mai, aole o lakou, aole hoi o ko lakou mau alii, ma ko lakou moe kolohe ana, aole hoi ma na kupapau o ka lakou mau alii ma ko lakou mau wahi kiekie.
and He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place for the soles of My feet, where I will dwell among the Israelites forever. The house of Israel will never again defile My holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and by the funeral offerings for their kings at their deaths.
8 I ko lakou kau ana i ko lakou paepae me kuu paepae, a i ko lakou mau laau ku me kuu mau laau ku, a he pa iwaena o'u a me lakou, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u inoa hoano, me ko lakou mau mea inainaia a lakou i hana'i: nolaila, ua hoopau aku au ia lakou i ko'u huhu.
When they placed their threshold next to My threshold and their doorposts beside My doorposts, with only a wall between Me and them, they defiled My holy name by the abominations they committed. Therefore I have consumed them in My anger.
9 Ano hoi, he pono ke hookaawale ae lakou i ko lakou moe kolohe ana, a me na kupapau o ko lakou mau alii, a mamao aku mai o'u aku nei, a e noho au iwaenakonu o lakou a mau loa aku.
Now let them remove far from Me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will dwell among them forever.
10 O oe, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoike i ka hale i ka ohana a Iseraela, i hilahila lakou i ko lakou lawelawe ana; a e ana lakou i ke ano.
As for you, son of man, describe the temple to the people of Israel, so that they may be ashamed of their iniquities. Let them measure the plan,
11 A ina e hilahila lakou i ka mea a pau a lakou i hana'i, e hoike ia lakou i ke kino o ka hale, a me kona ano, a me kona mau wahi e puka ai, a me kona mau wahi e komo ai, a me kona mau ano a pau, a me kona mau oihana a pau, a o kona ano a pau, a me kona mau kanawai a pau; a e kakau iho oe ia imua o ko lakou mau maka, i malama lakou i kona ano a pau, a me kona mau oihana a pau, a e hana hoi malaila.
and if they are ashamed of all they have done, then make known to them the design of the temple—its arrangement and its exits and entrances—its whole design along with all its statutes, forms, and laws. Write it down in their sight, so that they may keep its complete design and all its statutes and may carry them out.
12 Eia ke kanawai o ka hale; ma ka piko o ka mauna, e hoano loa kona palena a puni. Ea, oia ke kanawai o ka hale.
This is the law of the temple: All its surrounding territory on top of the mountain will be most holy. Yes, this is the law of the temple.
13 Eia na ana o ke kuahu, mamuli o na kubita; o ke kubita he kubita ia a me ka peahi lima; o kona kumu, hookahi kubita ia, a o kona laula he kubita ia, a o kona kae ma kona lehelehe a puni hookahi peahi lima no ia; oia hoi kahi kiekie o ke kuahu.
These are the measurements of the altar in long cubits (a cubit and a handbreadth): Its gutter shall be a cubit deep and a cubit wide, with a rim of one span around its edge. And this is the height of the altar:
14 A mai ke kumu ma ka honua ae a hiki i ke anuu puni lalo, elua kubita, a o ka laula hookahi kubita; a mai ke anuu iki a hiki i ke anuu nui eha kubita, a o ka laula hookahi kubita.
The space from the gutter on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the ledge one cubit wide. The space from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge shall be four cubits, and the ledge one cubit wide.
15 Oia kuahu o ke Akua eha kubita, a mai ke kuahu iluna ae eha pepeiaohao.
The altar hearth shall be four cubits high, and four horns shall project upward from the hearth.
16 A he umikumamalua kabita ka loa o ke kuahu, a he umikumamalua ka laula, he ahalike ma kona mau huina ha.
The altar hearth shall be square at its four corners, twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide.
17 A o ke anuu puni he umikumamaha ka loa, a he umikumamaha ka laula, i kona mau huinaha; a o ke kae a puni he hapalua o ke kubita, a kona lalo he kubita a puni, a e nana kona mau anuu pii ma ka hikina.
The ledge shall also be square, fourteen cubits long and fourteen cubits wide, with a rim of half a cubit and a gutter of a cubit all around it. The steps of the altar shall face east.”
18 Olelo mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, Eia na oihana o ke kuahu, i ka la e hana'i lakou ia mea, e kaumaha ai i na mohaikuni maluna iho, a e pipi hoi i ke koko maluna iho ona.
Then He said to me: “Son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘These are the statutes for the altar on the day it is constructed, so that burnt offerings may be sacrificed on it and blood may be sprinkled on it:
19 A e haawi aku oe i na kahuna, o na Levi, no na hua a Zadoka, na mea i hookokoke mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, e lawelawe no'u, i bipi opiopio i mohailawehala.
You are to give a young bull from the herd as a sin offering to the Levitical priests who are of the family of Zadok, who approach Me to minister before Me, declares the Lord GOD.
20 A e lawe oe i ke kauwahi o kona koko, a e kau aku ma kona mau pepeiaohao eha, a ma na kihi eha o ke anuu puni, a ma kona kae a puni; pela no oe e hoomaemae ai a e huikala ai ia mea.
You are to take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and all around the rim; thus you will cleanse the altar and make atonement for it.
21 E lawe hoi oe i ka bipi mohailawehala, a e puhi oia ia mea i ke ahi ma kahi i hoomaopopoia o ka hale, mawaho ae o kahi hoano.
Then you are to take away the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the appointed part of the temple area outside the sanctuary.
22 A i ka lua o ka la, e kaumaha aku oe i ke keiki a na kao kina ole, i mohailawehala; a e hoomaemae lakou i ke kuahu me lakou i hoomaemae ai ia me ka bipi.
On the second day you are to present an unblemished male goat as a sin offering, and the altar is to be cleansed as it was with the bull.
23 A pau ia oe ka hoomaemae ana, e kaumaha oe i ka bipi opiopio kina ole, a me ka hipakane kina ole no ka ohana.
When you have finished the purification, you are to present a young, unblemished bull and an unblemished ram from the flock.
24 A e kaumaha oe ia mau mea ma ke alo o Iehova, a e hoolei na kahuna i ka paakai maluna o ia mau mea, a e kaumaha ia mau mea i mohaikuni no Iehova.
You must present them before the LORD; the priests are to sprinkle salt on them and sacrifice them as a burnt offering to the LORD.
25 I na la ehiku e hoomakaukau no oe i ke kao i kela la i keia la i mohailawehala; a e hoomakaukau hoi lakou i ka bipi opiopio, a me ka hipakane no loko o ka ohana, he kina ole.
For seven days you are to provide a male goat daily for a sin offering; you are also to provide a young bull and a ram from the flock, both unblemished.
26 I na la ehiku e huikala lakou i ke kuahu a e hoomaemae ia mea; a e hoolaa ia lakou iho.
For seven days the priests are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it; so they shall consecrate it.
27 A pau ae ia mau la, e hiki no keia, ma ka walu o ka la a malaila aku, e kaumaha no ke kahuna i ka oukou mau mohaikuni maluna o ke kuahu, a me ka oukou mau mohaihoomalu; a e maliu aku au ia oukou, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
At the end of these days, from the eighth day on, the priests are to present your burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar. Then I will accept you, declares the Lord GOD.’”
