< Ezekiela 9 >

1 KAHEA mai la oia iloko o ko'u mau pepeiao, me ka leo nui, i mai la, Nau e hookokoke mai na kiai o ke kulanakauhale, e paa ana i ka lima o kela kanaka keia kanaka kona mea oi e luku ai.
He cried also, in my hearing, with a loud voice, saying: Bring ye near the punishments of the city, every one his weapon of destruction in his hand.
2 Aia hoi, hele mai la na kanaka eono mai ka aoao mai o ka puka luna, e moe ana ma ke kukuluakau, e paa ana i ka lima o kela kanaka keia kanaka kona mea oi e luku ai; a iwaena o lakou kekahi kanaka i aahuia i ke olona a he ipuinika o ka mea kakau ma kona aoao; a komo lakou iloko, a ku iho ma ka aoao o ke kuahu keleawe.
And lo, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which looketh toward the north, every one with his slaughter-weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's ink-horn by his side; and they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar.
3 A ua pii ae la ka nani o ke Akua o Iseraela, maluna ae o ke keruba kahi i kau ai ia maluna, i ka paepae o ka puka o ka hale. Kahea aku la ia i ke kanaka i aahuia i ke olona, ma kona aoao ka ipuinika o ka mea kakau;
And the glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub upon which it was to the threshold of the house; and he called to the man clothed with linen, who had the writer's ink-horn by his side;
4 A olelo mai la o Iehova ia ia E hele oe mawaena o ke kulanakauhale mawaenakonu o Ierusalema, a e kau i ka hoailona ma na lae o na kanaka e kaniuhu ana a e uwe ana no na mea e inainaia mawaenakonu ona.
and Jehovah said to him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that wail for all the abominations that are done in the midst thereof.
5 A i kela poe, i olelo ae la ia i ko'u lohe ana, E hahai oukou mahope ona mawaena o ke kulanakauhale, a e pepehi aku; mai noho a aloha ko oukou mau maka, aole hoi oukou e menemene;
And to the others he said, in my hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite! let not your eyes spare, neither have ye pity!
6 E pepehi a make loa i na mea kahiko a me na mea hou, na kaikamahine. a me na kamalii uuku, a me na wahine: aka, mai hookokoke aku i kekahi kanaka, maluna ona ka hoailona; a e hoomaka no ma kuu keenakapu. Alaila hoomaka lakou ma na lunakahiko, na mea ma ke alo o ka hale.
The old man, the youth, the virgin, little children and women, slay and destroy; but come not near any one upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then began they at the elders that were before the house.
7 Kauoha mai la oia ia lakou, E hoohaumia i ka hale, a e hoopiha i na pahale me na mea i pepehiia; a e hele aku. A hele aku lakou, a pepehi iho la iloko o ke kulanakauhale.
And he said to them, Pollute the house, and fill the courts with the slain, then go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.
8 Eia keia, i ko lakou luku ana ia lakou, a koe mai au, moe au ilalo ke alo, i aku la hoi au, Auwe, e Iehova ka Haku! e luku mai anei oe i ke koena a pau o ka Iseraela i kou ninini ana i kou huhu maluna o Ierusalema?
And while they were smiting them, I alone was left; and I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! wilt thou destroy all the remnant of Israel, while thou pourest out thy fury upon Jerusalem?
9 Alaila olelo mai la oia ia'u, O ka hewa o ka ohana a Iseraela a me Iuda he nui wale ia, a ua paapu ka aina i ke koko, a ua piha ke kulanakauhale i ka hewa; no ka mea, ke i mai nei lakou, Ua haalele Iehova i ka honua, aole ike mai Iehova.
And he said to me: The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness. For they say, “Jehovah hath forsaken the land”; and, “Jehovah seeth not.”
10 A owau nei la, aole e aloha kuu maka, aole au e menemene aku, aka, e uku au i ko lakou aoao maluna o ko lakou poo.
Therefore mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity. Their way will I recompense upon their head.
11 Aia o ke kanaka i aahuia me ke olona ia ia ka ipuinika ma kona aoao, ua hai mai oia ia mea, i mai la, Ua hana aku au e like me kou kauoha ana mai ia'u.
And lo, the man clothed with linen, who had the ink-horn by his side, returned answer, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
