< Ezekiel 14 >

1 One day some of the elders of Israel came to me and sat down in front of me.
A LAILA hele mai kekahi mau luna kahiko o ka Iseraela, a noho iho imua o'u.
2 Then Yahweh gave me this message:
Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u i mai la,
3 “You human, these men want to [IDM] worship idols, and they are allowing idols to induce them to sin [IDM]. So I will certainly [RHQ] answer them if they ask me for advice.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua kukulu keia poe kanaka i ko lakou mau kii iloko o ko lakou mau naau, a waiho iho i ko lakou mea hoowalewale i ka hewa imua o ko lakou alo; e ninauia mai anei au e lakou?
4 So say this to them: ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: When any Israeli person wants to worship idols which will induce him to sin, and he goes to a [to get advice], I, Yahweh, will give him the answer that he deserves to receive because he worship idols.
Nolaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou, a e i aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; O kela kanaka keia kanaka o ka ohana a Iseraela i kukulu i kona mau kii iloko o kona naau, a i waiho iho i kona mea hoowalewale i ka hewa imua o kona alo, a hele mai hoi i ke kaula; na'u na Iehova e hai aku i ka mea i hele mai e like me ka nui o kona poe kii;
5 [I will do that] in order that the Israeli people, who have abandoned me in order to worship their idols, will sincerely [IDM] worship me again.’
I hopu au i ka ohana a Iseraela iloko o ko lakou naau iho, no ka mea, ua aea lakou mai o'u aku nei ma ko lakou mau kii.
6 Therefore, say to the Israeli people, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: (Repent/Stop sinning)! Stop worshiping your idols, and stop all your [other] detestable behavior!’
Nolaila e olelo aku oe i ka ohana a Iseraela, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E mihi oukou, a e huli mai, mai ko oukou mau kii mai, a e hoohuli i ko oukou mau maka mai ko oukou mau mea e inainaia a pau.
7 When any of [you] Israeli people or any foreigner living among you turns away from me and starts worshiping idols [IDM] that induce him to sin, and then goes to a prophet to find out what I want him to do, I myself will answer him.
No ka mea, o kela mea keia mea o ka ohana a Iseraela, a o ka malihini e noho iki ana iloko o ka Iseraela, i hookaawale ia ia iho mai o'u aku nei, a kukulu hoi i kona mau kii iloko o kona naau, a waiho iho hoi i kona mea e hoowalewale ai i ka hewa imua o kona alo. a hele mai hoi i ke kaula e ninau mai no'u; na'u na Iehova e hai aku ia ia ma o'u iho no.
8 I will show that I detest him, and [what happens to] him to be a warning [to others], and cause him to be someone whom people despise. I will cause him to no longer be allowed to associate with my people. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
A e hooku e au i ko'u wahi maka i kela kanaka, a e hoolilo au ia ia i hoailona, a i hua olelo hoohiki; a e oki aku au ia ia mai waena aku o ko'u poe kanaka; a e ike no hoi oukou owau no Iehova.
9 And if a prophet is deceived and gives a false prophecy, [even though] I [allowed him to] give that message, I will get rid of him and remove him from among my Israeli people.
A ina e puni ke kaula i kana olelo ana i kekahi mea, ua puni ia kaula ia'u ia Iehova. A e kikoo aku au i ko'u lima maluna ona, a e luku aku au ia ia mai waenakonu aku o ko'u poe kanaka ka Iseraela.
10 Both the prophet and the one who asks him for advice will be guilty, [and I will punish both of them].
A e halihali lakou i ka hoopaiia o ko lakou hewa. E like ka hoopai ana i ke kaula me ka hoopai ana i ka mea i imi aku;
11 Then you Israeli people will no longer abandon me, and you will no longer become unacceptable to me because of your sins. You will be my people, and I will be your God. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, say.”
I ole e auwana hou aku ka ohana a Iseraela mai o'u aku nei, i ole hoi e haumia hou me ko lakou lawehala ana, aka, e lilo lakou i poe kanaka no'u, a owau no hoi i Akua no, lakou, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
12 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
13 “You human, [the people of some] country sin against me by abandoning me, and I punish [IDM] them by cutting off their food supply and by sending a famine, with the result that people and animals die,
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, i ka wa e hana hewa loa mai ai ka aina ia'u, e kikoo aku au i ko'u lima maluna iho ona, a e uhai au i ke kookoo o kana berena, a e hoouna aku au i ka wi maluna ona, a e oki aku i na kanaka me na holoholona mai ona aku la;
14 even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were there, they would save only themselves because of their being righteous. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, o Noa, Dauiela a me Ioba, o ko lakou mau uhane iho ka lakou e hoopakele ai ma ko lakou pono, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
15 Or, if I send wild animals throughout the country, and they attack and [many of] [HYP] the people, with the result that travel in that country becomes very dangerous and no one travels through that country,
Ina e hoohele ae au i na holoholona ino iwaena o ka aina, a oki loa ia lakou, a neoneo loa i ole ai e hele ae ke kanaka mawaena no ua poe holoholona la;
16 [as surely] as I am alive, even if those three men were in that country, they could not save [even their own] sons or [from being killed]. Only those [three] would (be saved/remain alive), and the country would become desolate. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i na keikikane me na kaikamahine, o lakou wale no ke hoopakeleia, aka, e neoneo no ka aina.
17 Or, if I bring enemy soldiers [MTY] to attack that country, and they kill [MTY] people and animals throughout that country with their swords,
A ina lawe au i ka pahikaua maluna o ka aina, a e olelo aku, E ka pahikaua, e hele oe mawaeua o ka aina; a oki aku au i na kanaka a me na holoholona mai ona aku la;
18 as surely as I am alive, even if those three men were in that country, they would not be able to save even their own sons or [from being killed]. They would save only themselves. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Ina o keia mau kanaka ekolu ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i na keikikane, aole hoi i na kaikamahine; o lakou wale no ke hoopakeleia.
19 Or, if I send a plague into that land and cause the people and the animals to [from the plague] because I am very angry with those people,
A ina e hoouna au i ka mai ahulau i kela aina, a e ninini aku i ko'u huhu maluna ona me ke koko, e oki aku i kanaka pu me ka holoholona,
20 [as surely] as I am alive, even if Noah, Daniel and Job were in that country, they would not [be able to] save even their sons and daughters. They would save only themselves because of their being righteous. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Ina o Noa, Daniela a me Ioba ka iloko ona, ma ko'u ola ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, aole lakou e hoopakele i ke keikikane, aole hoi i ke kaikamahine; o ko lakou mau uhane iho ka lakou e hoopakele ai ma ko lakou pono.
21 So [now] this is what [I, ], Yahweh the Lord, say: I will cause four things to happen to [the people of] Jerusalem to punish them very severely. [Some] people and animals will be killed by swords, [some will die from] famines, [others will be attacked and killed by] wild animals, and [others will die in] plagues.
No ka mea, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; E kela aku keia i ka wa e hoouna aku ai au i kuu mau mea hoopai kaumaha a eha maluna o Ierusalema, i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka holoholona ino, a me ka mai auhulau, e oki aku mai laila aku i kanaka pu me ka holoholona.
22 But some [of your people] will remain alive, [both adults] and children. They will come to you, [Ezekiel, in Babylon]. And when you see [disgusting] behavior and actions, you will realize that I had good reasons for causing [the people of] Jerusalem to experience those many great disasters [DOU] that I have sent to them.
Aka, eia hoi, e koe no ke koena iloko ona e laweia'e iwaho, o na keikikane a me na kaikamahine; aia hoi, e puka mai lakou io oukou la, a e ike oukou i ko lakou aoao a me ka lakou hana ana; a e hooluoluia oukou no ka ino a'u i hooili ae ai maluna o Ierusalema, no na mea a pau a'u i kau ai maluna ona.
23 When you see those things that they do, you will know that there were very good reasons [LIT] for me to do everything that I caused to happen to them. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
A e hooluolu lakou ia oukou, aia ike oukou i ko lakou mau aoao a me ka lakou hana ana; a e ike oukou aole au i hana kumu ole i na mea a pau a'u i hana'i iloko ona, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
