< Ezekiela 47 >
1 MAHOPE iho, lawe hou ae oia ia'u i ka puka o ka hale; aia hoi, puka mai la na wai mai loko mai o ka paepae o ka hale ma ka hikina; no ka mea, ma ka hikina ke alo o ka hale; a kahe mai ka wai mai lalo mai, mai ka aoao akau o ka hale, ma ke kukulu hema o ke kuahu.
Then the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.
2 Alaila, hoopuka oia ia'u ma ke ala o ka ipuka ma ke kukulu akau, a alakai ia'u a puni ma ke ala mawaho i ka puka waho ma ke ala e nana ana i ka hikina; aia hoi, ua kahe aku na wai ma ka aoao akau.
Next he brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and there I saw the water trickling out from the south side.
3 A hele aku ma ka hikina ke kanaka maloko o kona lima kahi kaula, ana ae la hoi oia i hookahi tausani kubita, alakai ae la oia ia'u mawaena o na wai; a ua hiki mai na wai i na puupuuwawae.
As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through ankle-deep water.
4 A ana hou ae la oia i hookahi tausani, a aiakai ia'u mawaena o na wai, a ua hiki na wai i na kuli: ana hou ae la oia i hookahi tausani, a lawe ia'u iwaeua, a ua hiki na wai i ka puhaka.
Then he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through knee-deep water. Again he measured a thousand cubits and led me through waist-deep water.
5 Alaila, ana hou ae la oia i hookahi tausani; he muliwai ka, aole hiki ia'u ke hele ae ma kela kapa; no ka mea, ua kiekie ae na wai, na wai e au ai, aole hiki ke heleia'e.
Once again he measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot.
6 A olelo mai la oia ia'u, Ua ike anei oe i keia, e ke keiki a ke kanaka? Alaila, lawe maila oia ia'u, a hoihoi mai ia'u ma ke kae o ka muliwai.
“Son of man, do you see this?” he asked. Then he led me back to the bank of the river.
7 A i ka wa i hoi ai au, aia hoi, he nui na kumu laau ma ke kae o ka muliwai ma kela aoao, a ma keia aoao.
When I arrived, I saw a great number of trees along both banks of the river.
8 Alaila, olelo mai la oia ia'u, Ke puka aku nei keia mau wai i ka aina hikina, a ke kahe nei ilalo i ka waonahele, a komo i ka moana: a hookomoia iloko o ka moaua e hoolaia na wai.
And he said to me, “This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah. When it empties into the Sea, the water there becomes fresh.
9 Eia hoi keia, o na mea a pau e ola ana, a e oni ana, ma na wahi a pau a ka muliwai e hiki aku ai, e ola no ia; a he nui auanei ka lehulehu o na ia, no ka hiki ana o keia mau wai ilaila, no ka mea, e hoolaia na wai; a e ola na mea a pau kahi e hiki aku ai ka muliwai.
Wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a great number of fish, because it flows there and makes the waters fresh; so wherever the river flows, everything will flourish.
10 Eia hoi koia, e ku na lawaia ma ia, mai Enegedi, a hiki i Enegelaima; a no ka hohola ana ia i na upena; a he nui ke ano o ka lakou poe ia, e like me na ia o ke kai nui, he nui wale.
Fishermen will stand by the shore; from En-gedi to En-eglaim they will spread their nets to catch fish of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea.
11 Aka, o kona mau wahi pohopoho, a me kona mau wahi lepo wai, na mea hoi i hoola ole ia, e hooliloia ia no ka paakai.
But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.
12 A ma ka pili o ka muliwai ma kona kae ma kela aoao, ma keia aoao, e ulu ai na kumu laau a pau i mea ai, aole e mae ko lakou lau, aole hoi e pau kona hua; ma kona mau mahina e hoohua mai ia i hua hou, no ka mea, o ko lakou mau wai, ua kahe mai lakou mai kahi hoano mai; a lilo kona hua i ai, a o kona lau i laau lapaau.
Along both banks of the river, fruit trees of all kinds will grow. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. Each month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be used for food and their leaves for healing.”
13 Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Eia ka palena e ai ai oukou i ka aina, mamuli o na ohana umikumamalua o Iseraela; he mau apana ko Iosepa.
This is what the Lord GOD says: “These are the boundaries by which you are to divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall receive two portions.
14 A e ai oukou ia kekahi me kekahi, me a'u i hapai ai i kuu lima e haawi ai ia i ko oukou mau makua; a e haule keia aina no oukou i hooilina.
You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with an uplifted hand to give it to your forefathers, this land will fall to you as an inheritance.
15 Eia hoi ka palena o ka aina ma ka aoao kukulu akau mai ke kai nui ma ke alanui o Hetelona kahi e hele ai i Zedada;
This shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon through Lebo-hamath to Zedad,
16 Hamata, Berota, Siberaima, ka mea iwaena o ka palena o Damaseko, a me ka palena o Hamata; Hazara-hatikona, ka mea ma ka palena o Haurana.
Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.
17 A o ka palena mai ke kai o Hazarenana ia, ka palena o Damaseko, o ka akau hoi ma ke kukulu akau, a me ka palena o Hamata. Oia hoi ka aoao kukulu akau.
So the border will run from the Sea to Hazar-enan, along the northern border of Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern boundary.
18 A ma ka aoao hikina, e ana oukou mai waena o Haurana a me Damaseko, a me Gileada, a me ka aina o ka Iseraela, ma Ioredane mai ka palena a hiki i ke kai hikina, A oia ka aoao hikina.
On the east side the border will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, to the Eastern Sea and as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary.
19 A o ka aoao hema ma ke kukulu hema, mai Tamara, a hiki i Meriba Kadesa, ka muliwai a hiki i ke kai nui. Oia no hoi ka aoao hema ma ke kukulu hema.
On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, and along the Brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary.
20 A o ka aoao komohana hoi, oia ke kai nui mai kela palena, a hiki ma ke komo ana o Hamata. Oia ka aoao komohana.
And on the west side, the Great Sea will be the boundary up to a point opposite Lebo-hamath. This will be the western boundary.
21 Pela e puunaue ai oukou i keia aina no oukou e like me na ohana a Iseraela.
You are to divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
22 Ae hiki no keia, e puunaue oukou ma ka pu ana, i hooilina no oukou, a no na malihini e noho ana iwaena o oukou, a loaa ia lakou na keiki iwaena o oukou; a lilo lakou ia oukou me he poe la i hanauia ma ka aina iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela; e loaa ia lakou me oukou ka hooilina iwaena o na ohana a Iseraela.
You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who dwell among you and who have children. You are to treat them as native-born Israelites; along with you, they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.
23 Eia keia, ma ka ohana i noho ai ka malihini, malaila e haawi ai oukou i hooilina nona, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
In whatever tribe a foreigner dwells, you are to assign his inheritance there,” declares the Lord GOD.
