< 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.
And I turn back, and lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a flying roll.
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.
And he saith unto me, 'What art thou seeing?' And I say, 'I am seeing a flying roll, its length twenty by the cubit, and its breadth ten by the cubit.'
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.
And he saith unto me, 'This [is] the execration that is going forth over the face of all the land, for every one who is stealing, on the one side, according to it, hath been declared innocent, and every one who hath sworn, on the other side, according to it, hath been declared innocent.
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 brought it out — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts — and it hath come in unto the house of the thief, and unto the house of him who hath sworn in My name to a falsehood, and it hath remained in the midst of his house, and hath consumed it, both its wood 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.
And the messenger who is speaking with me goeth forth, and saith unto me, 'Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see what [is] this that is coming forth?'
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.
And I say, 'What [is] it?' And he saith, 'This — the ephah that is coming forth.' And he saith, 'This [is] their aspect in all 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.
And lo, a cake of lead lifted up; and this [is] a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.'
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.
And he saith, 'This [is] the wicked woman.' And he casteth her unto the midst of the ephah, and casteth the weight of lead 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.
And I lift up mine eyes, and see, and lo, two women are coming forth, and wind in their wings; and they have wings like wings of the stork, and they lift up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.
10 Ninau aku la au i ka anela i kamailio me au, Mahea la laua nei e lawe aku ai i ka epa?
And I say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'Whither [are] they causing the ephah to go?'
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.
And he saith unto me, 'To build to it a house in the land of Shinar.' And it hath been prepared and hath been placed there on its base.
