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 he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying, “Cause those who are in charge of the city to draw near, each man with his destroying weapon 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.
Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand. One man in the middle of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. They went in, and stood beside the bronze 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;
The glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house; and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn 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.
Yahweh said to him, “Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done within it.”
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;
To the others he said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him, and strike. Don’t let your eye spare, neither have 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.
Kill utterly the old man, the young man, the virgin, little children and women; but don’t come near any man on whom is the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.” Then they began at the old 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.
He said to them, “Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” They went out, and struck 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?
While they were killing, and I was left, I fell on my face, and cried, and said, “Ah Lord Yahweh! Will you destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out of your wrath on 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.
Then 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 perversion; for they say, ‘Yahweh has forsaken the land, and Yahweh doesn’t 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.
As for me also, my eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way on 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.
Behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, “I have done as you have commanded me.”
