Ezekiela 8
1 EIA hoi keia i ke ono o ka makahiki, i ka malama aono, i ka la alima o ka malama, e noho ana au iloko o kuu hale, a noho no na lunakahiko o ka Iuda imua o'u, haule mai ka lima o Iehova ka Haku malaila, maluna o'u.
Now it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the Lord Jehovah fell there upon me.
2 Alaila nana aku au, aia hoi he mea ua like ke ano me ke ahi i ka nana aku; mai ka ikea ana o kona puhaka ilalo, he ahi; a mai kona puhaka iluna, me he olinolino la ke nana aku, a me ke keleawe hoohualiia.
And I looked, and lo, a form having the appearance of fire; from the appearance of his loins downward, of fire; and from his loins upward, of a bright light, like the splendor of shining brass.
3 Kikoo mai la oia i ka mea like me ka lima, a lalau mai ia'u ma kekahi wili lauoho o kuu poo, a kaikai ae ka uhane ia'u iluna mawaena o ka honua a me ka lani, a alakai ae la ia'u i Ierusalema ma na hihio o ke Akua, i ka pani o ka pukapa iloko e nana ana i ke kukulu akau, kahi o ke kii e lili ai ka mea hoolili.
And he put forth the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my head. And the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me, in the visions of God, to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate, that looketh toward the north, where stood the idol of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy.
4 Aia hoi, malaila ka nani o ke Akua o Iseraela, e like me ka hihio a'u i ike ai ma ka papu.
And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I saw in the plain.
5 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, Ealawa ae i kou mau maka ma ke kukulu akau. Alawa ae la hoi au i kau mau maka i ke kukulu akau, aia hoi ma ke kukulu akau ma ka puka o ke kuahu keia kii e lili ai, maloko o kahi e komo ai.
Then said he to me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes toward the north! And I lifted up my eyes toward the north, and behold, northward from the gate of the altar was this idol of jealousy, at the entrance.
6 A olelo hou mai la ia, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ke ike nei anei oe i ka mea a lakou e hana nei? na mea e inainaia a ka ohana a Iseraela i hana'i ma keia wahi, i hele loihi aku ai au mai ko'u keenakapu aku? Aka, e haliu hou ae oe, a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia he nui aku.
And he said to me: Son of man, seest thou what they do? Great are the abominations which the house of Israel commit here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary. But thou shalt yet again see great abominations.
7 A lawe mai oia ia'u ma ka puka o ka pahale, a nana aku au, aia hoi he puka maloko o ka pa.
And he brought me to the door of the court, and I looked, and behold, a hole in the wall.
8 Olelo mai la hoi oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e pao ae oe maloko o ka pa. A pao ae la au iloko o ka pa, aia hoi he ipuka.
And he said to me, Son of man, break now through the wall. And when I had broken through the wall, behold, a door.
9 I mai la hoi ia ia'u, E komo ae oe iloko, a e nana oe i na mea hewa e inainaia a lakou e hana nei maanei.
And he said to me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations which they practise here.
10 Komo ae la hoi au a ike, aia hoi o ke ano o na mea kolo a pau me na holoholona i hoopailuaia, a me na akuakii o ka ohana a Iseraela i kakauia ma ka pa a puni.
So I went in and saw, and behold, every form of creeping things, and of abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon the wall round about.
11 Ku mai la imua o lakou na kanaka he kanahiku o na lunakahiko o ka ohana a Iseraela, a iwaenakonu o lakou e ku ana o Iaazania, ke keiki a Sapana, e paa ana kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona kapuahi kuni mea ala i kona lima. Punohu nui ae la ka uahi mea ala paapu.
And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, Jaazaniah, the son of Shaphan, standing in the midst of them, with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.
12 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua ike anei oe i ka mea a na lunakahiko o ka ohana a Iseraela e hana nei iloko o ka pouli, kela kanaka keia kanaka iloko o kona keena e nana ai? No ka mea, ke olelo nei lakou, Aole ike mai o Iehova; ua haalele Iehova i ka honua.
Then said he to me: Son of man, seest thou what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, each one in his image-chamber? For they say, “Jehovah seeth us not; Jehovah hath forsaken the land.”
13 Olelo mai la oia ia'u, E haliu hou ae oe, a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia he nui aku a lakou e hana nei.
And he said to me, Thou shalt yet again see the great abominations which they practise.
14 Alaila lawe mai oia ia'u i ke pani o ka ipuka pa o ka hale o Iehova, ka mea ma ka aoao kukulu akau; aia hoi, e noho ana na wahine e uwe ana no Tamuza.
Then he brought me to the entrance of the gate of the house of Jehovah, which was toward the north, and behold, there sat women, weeping for Thammuz.
15 Ninau mai la oia ia'u, Ua ike anei oe i keia, e ke keiki a ke kanaka? E haliu hou ae oe a e ike oe i na mea e inainaia e oi aku mamua o keia.
And he said to me, Seest thou this, O son of man? Thou shalt yet again see greater abominations than these.
16 Lawe ae la oia ia'u iloko o ka pahale loko o ka hale o Iehova, aia hoi, ma ka puka o ka luakini o Iehova mawaena o ka lanai a me ke kuahu, he iwakaluakumamalima paha o na kanaka, ua huli ko lakou mau kua i ka luakini o Iehova, a o ko lakou mau alo i ka hikina; a hoomana aku la lakou i ka la ma ka hikina.
And he brought me into the inner court of the house of Jehovah, and behold, at the entrance of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of Jehovah, and their faces toward the east; and they bowed themselves eastward toward the sun.
17 Alaila ninau mai la ia ia'u, Ua ike anei oe i keia, e ke keiki a ke kanaka? He mea mama anei i ka ohana a Iuda ka lakou hana ana i na mea e inainaia a lakou e hana nei maanei? no ka mea, ua hoopiha lakou i ka aina i ka hewa, a ua huli mai lakou e hoonaukiuki mai ia'u; aia hoi, ua kau lakou i ka lala ma ko lakou ihu.
And he said to me: Seest thou, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah, that they commit the abominations which they commit here, that they fill the land with violence, and continually provoke me to anger? And behold, they put the blanch to their nostrils.
18 Nolaila owau no kekahi e hana aku me ka ukiuki; aole e aloha kuu maka, aole hoi au e menemene aku; a ina e kahea lakou iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao me ka leo nui, aole au o hoolohe aku ia lakou.
Therefore will I also deal with them in fury; mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity; and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
