Malachi 1

1 The burden of the word of YHWH to Israel by Malachi.

K A WANANA o ka olelo a Iehova i ka Iseraela ma o Malaki la.

2 I have loved you, saith YHWH. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith YHWH: yet I loved Jacob,

Ua aloha aku au ia oukou, wahi a Iehova; Aka, ke ninau mai nei oukou, Ma ke aha la kau i aloha mai ai ia makou? Aole anei o Esau ka hoahanau o Iakoba? wahi a Iehova; Aka, i aloha aku au ia Iakoba,

3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

A hoowahawaha hoi au ia Esau, A hooneoneo aku la au i kona mau mauna, A hoolilo iho la i kona aina i mau wahi noho o ka waonahele.

4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith YHWH of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom YHWH hath indignation for ever.

No ka mea, ke olelo nei ko Edoma, Ua auhulihia kakou, Aka, e kukulu hou auanei kakou i na wahi neoneo: Penei ka Iehova o na kaua i olelo mai ai, E kukulu lakou, a e wawahi hoi au: E kapaia lakou, Na aina o ka aia, A o na kanaka a Iehova e inaina mau loa ai.

5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, YHWH will be magnified from the border of Israel.

A e ike auanei ko oukou mau maka, a e olelo aku oukou, E hoonuiia auanei o Iehova mai ka palena aku o Iseraela.

6 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith YHWH of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?

Ua hoomaikai ke keiki i kona makuakane, A o ke kauwa i kona haku: Ina hoi he makua wau, auhea la kuu hoomaikaiia? Ina hoi he haku wau, auhea la hoi kuu weliweliia? Wahi a Iehova o na kaua ia oukou, e na kahuna hoowahawaha i kuu inoa. Ke ninau mai nei oukou, Ma ke aha ka makou i hoowahawaha ai i kou inoa?

7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of YHWH is contemptible.

Ke mohai mai nei oukou i ka berena haumia maluna o ko'u kuahu; Ke ninau mai nei oukou, Ma ke aha la ka makou i hoohaumia aku ai ia oe? Ma ka mea a oukou e olelo nei, He mea wahawaha ka papaaina o Iehova.

8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith YHWH of hosts.

Ina paha e kaumaha oukou i ka mea makapo i mea mohai, aole anei ia he hewa? Ina hoi e mohai oukou i ka mea oopa a me ka mea mai, aole anei he hewa ia? Ke i aku nei au, e haawi aku ia mea na kou alii, E oluolu mai anei ia ia oe? E maliu mai anei kela ia oe? wahi a Iehova o na kaua.

9 And now, I pray you, beseech El that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith YHWH of hosts.

Nolaila hoi, ke nonoi aku nei oukou i ke Akua, e aloha mai oia ia kakou: No oukou aku ia mea; e maliu mai anei kela ia oukou? Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.

10 Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith YHWH of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.

Owai la ka mea o oukou e pani wale i na puka? Aole oukou e kuni make hewa maluna o kuu kuahu. Aole au i oluolu ia oukou, wahi a Iehova o na kaua; Aole hoi e maliu au i ka mohai na ko oukou lima mai.

11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith YHWH of hosts.

No ka mea, mai ka hikina o ka la a hiki i ke komohana, E nui auanei kuu inoa iwaena o na lahuikanaka; A ma na wahi a pau loa e kuniia'i ka mea ala no kuu inoa, A me ka mohai maemae: No ka mea, e nui auanei kuu inoa iwaena o na lahuikanaka, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.

12 But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of YHWH is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible.

Aka, ua hoino oukou ia i ka oukou olelo ana, Ua haumia ka papaaina o Iehova, A o ka hua maluna, oia o kana ai, he mea hoowahawaha ia.

13 Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith YHWH of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith YHWH.

Ke olelo nei oukou, Ka! kai ka luhi! A na oukou ia i hoopailuaia'i, wahi a Iehova o na kaua; No ka mea, ke mohai iho nei oukou i ka mea i haehaeia, A me ka oopa, a me ka maimai, A pela oukou i lawe mai ai i ka mohai. E oluolu anei au i keia mea na ko oukou lima mai? wahi a Iehova.

14 But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto YHWH a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith YHWH of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen.

Aka, auwe ka mea hoopunipuni, Ka mea nana ka hipakane maloko o kana ohana, Aka, ua hoolaa, a ua mohai iho i ka mea haumia: No ka mea, he alii nui hoi wau, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, A he mea weliweli ko'u inoa iwaena o na lahuikanaka.
