< 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.
Then cried he in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Draw near ye that have charge of the city, -even every man with 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 coming in out of the way of the upper gate which looketh toward the north even every man with his destructive weapon in his hand, and one man in their midst clothed with linen, having a scribe’s ink holder by his side, —so they came in and stood beside the altar of bronze.
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 lifted itself up from off the cherub whereon it had been, unto the threshold of the house, —and he called unto the man clothed with linen, who had the scribe’s ink holder 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.
Then said Yahweh unto him. Pass along through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, —and set thou a mark upon the foreheads of the men who are sighing and crying over all the abominations that are being done in her midst.
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;
But unto these, said he in mine ears, Pass along through the city after him and smite, —let not your eye, shield, 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.
elder, young man and virgin and little ones and women, shall ye slay utterly, but unto any man who hath upon him the mark, do not ye come near, and at my sanctuary, shall ye begin. So they began with the elder men. who 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 unto them Defile ye the house and fill the courts with the slain, —go ye forth! So they went forth and smote 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 it came to pass, while they were smiting them—I being left remaining, that I fell upon my face and made outcry, and said Alas! My Lord. Yahweh art thou about to destroy all the remnant of Israel, in that thou art pouring out of thine indignation 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 unto me the iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah, is exceeding, great, and the land is filled with shed blood, and the city is full of over-reaching, —for they have said. Yahweh hath forsaken the land, — and Yahweh doth not see.
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 as for even me, Mine eye shall not shield. Neither will I pity, — Their way upon their own head, have I rendered.
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 in linen, having the ink-holder by his side, bringing back word saying, — I have done according to all which thou didst command me.
