Zekaria 5
1 A LAWA hou ae la ko'u mau maka iluna, ike aku la au, aia hoi, he owili pepa e lele ana.
Then again I looked up and saw a flying scroll.
2 I mai la kela ia'u, Heaha kau mea ike? I aku la au, Ke ike aku nei au i ka owili pepa lele ana; he iwakalua hailima ka loa, a he umi hailima ka laula.
He said to me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a flying scroll; twenty cubits long, ten cubits wide.”
3 Olelo mai la kela ia'u, Eia ka hoahewa ana e hele aku maluna o ka ili a pau o ka honua. No ka mea, o kela mea keia mea aihue, e hookiia auanei oia ma keia aoao, e like me ka keia; a o kela mea keia mea e hoohiki wahahee ana, e hookiia'e oia ma kela aoao, e like me ka kela.
Then he said to me, “This is the curse that goes over the whole land. Every thief will be banished according to the writing on one side and everyone who lies under oath shall be banished according to the writing on the other side.
4 Ua lawe mai nei au in, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, a e komo aku ia iloko o ka hale o ka aihue, a o ka hale o ka mea e hoohiki wahahee ana ma ko'u inoa; e noho ia iloko o kona hale, a e hoopau oia ia mea me ka laau a me ka pohaku ona.
I have sent it out, says the Lord of hosts, and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of anyone who swears falsely by my name. It will remain in the midst of his house and will consume it with its timber and its stones.”
5 Alaila, hele aku la ka anela i kamailio pu me au, a i mai la ia'u, E nana ae oe iluna, a e ike i kela mea e hele aku ana.
Then the messenger who talked with me came forward, and said to me, “Look up and see what is now coming.”
6 I aku la au, Heaha ia mea? I mai la kela, He epa ia mea e hele aku ana. I mai la hoi oia, Eia ko lakou helehelena ma ka honua a pau.
I said. “What is it?” He said, “It is a measuring basket, full of the guilt of the land.”
7 Aia hoi, ua kaikaiia'e he popo kepau; a o ka mea e noho ana iwaenakonu o ka epa, he wahine ia.
A round leaden cover was lifted up, and there was a woman sitting in the middle of the basket.
8 I mai la kela, O keia ka aia. A hoolei aku la oia ia mea mawaena konu o ka epa; a hoolei iho la ia i ka pohaku kepau maluna iho o kona waha.
He said, “This is Wickedness.” He thrust her down into the midst of the basket and he pushed the round leaden cover back on its mouth.
9 Alaila, nana ae la au iluna, ike aku la, aia hoi, puka mai la na wahine elua iwaho, a iloko o ko laua mau eheu ka makani; no ka mea, he mau eheu ia laua e like me na eheu o ka setoreka: a kaikai ae la lakou i ka epa iluna iwaena o ka honua a me ka lani.
Then I looked up and saw two women, and the wind was in their wings. They had wings like the wings of a stork and they lifted up the basket between them.
10 Ninau aku la au i ka anela i kamailio me au, Mahea la laua nei e lawe aku ai i ka epa?
Then I said to the messenger who talked with me, “Where are they taking the basket?”
11 I mai la kela ia'u, No ka hana i hale nona ma ka aina i Sinara; ilaila ia e hoonohoia'i, a e kau ia maluna o kona kumu.
He said to me, “To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, they will rest the basket there.”
