< Ezekiel 22 >

1 Moreover the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 And thou, son of man, will thou judge, will thou judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations.
Ano hoi, e ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoohewa anei oe, e hoohewa oe i ke kulanakauhale koko? Oia, e hoike no oe ia ia i kona mau mea a pau i inainaia.
3 And thou shall say, Thus says the lord Jehovah: A city that sheds blood in the midst of her, that her time may come, and who makes idols against herself to defile her!
E olelo aku oe, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Huku, penei; Ke hookahe nei ke kulanakauhale i ke koko iwaenakonu ona, i hiki mai kona manawa, a ua hana oia i na akua kii e ku e ia ia iho, e hoohaumia ia ia iho.
4 Thou have become guilty in thy blood that thou have shed, and are defiled in thine idols which thou have made. And thou have caused thy days to draw near, and have come even to thy years. Therefore I have made thee a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
I ke koko au i hookahe ai, ua hewa oe, a ma na akua kii au i hana'i, ua hoohaumia oe ia oe iho; a ua hookokoke no oe i kou mau la, a ua hiki mai hoi i kou mau makahiki; nolaila i hoolilo aku ai au ia oe i mea e hoinoia e na lahuikanaka, a i mea e henehene ai ko na aina a pau.
5 Those that are near, and those that are far from thee, shall mock thee, thou infamous one, full of tumult.
O ka poe kokoke mai a me ka poe mamao aku ia oe, e henehene no lakou ia oe ka mea inoa haumia, a ua hoouluhua nui ia.
6 Behold, the rulers of Israel, each one according to his power, have been in thee to shed blood.
Eia hoi, o na'lii o ka Iseraela, kela mea keia mea iloko ou ma ka hookahe koko lakou me ko lakou ikaika.
7 In thee they have made light of father and mother. In the midst of thee they have dealt with the sojourner by oppression. In thee they have wronged the fatherless and the widow.
O ka makuakane a me ka makuwahine ka lakou i hoowahawaha ai iloko ou; ma ka hooluhihewa i hana aku ai lakou i ka malihini iloko ou; a maloko ou i hoopilikia ai lakou i na mea makua ole a me na wahine kanemake.
8 Thou have despised my holy things, and have profaned my sabbaths.
Ua hoowahawaha oe i ko'u mau mea hoano, a ua hoohaumia hoi oe i ko'u mau Sabati.
9 Slanderous men have been in thee to shed blood, and in thee they have eaten upon the mountains. In the midst of thee they have committed lewdness.
Maloko ou na kanaka holoholo olelo e hookahe i ke koko; ua ai hoi lakou maluna o na mauna iloko ou; a iwaenakonu ou ua hana lakou ma ka moe kolohe.
10 In thee they have uncovered their fathers' nakedness. In thee they have humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
Maloko ou, ua wehe lakou i kahi huna o ko lakou makuakane; a maloko ou ua hoohaahaa lakou i ka wahine i hookaawaleia'e no ka heekoko.
11 And one has committed abomination with his neighbor's wife, and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law, and another in thee has humbled his sister, his father's daughter.
Ua hana kekahi i ka mea inainaia me ka wahine a kona hoalauna, a ua hoohaumia kekahi i kana hunona wahine ma ka moo kolohe; a ua hoohaahaa kekahi iloko ou i kona kaikuwahine, he kaikamahine a kona makuakane.
12 In thee they have taken bribes to shed blood. Thou have taken interest and increase. And thou have greedily gained from thy neighbors by oppression, and have forgotten me, says the lord Jehovah.
Maloko ou ua lawe lakou i na kipe e hookahe i ke koko; ua lawe oe i ke kuala a me ka uku panee, a ua loaa ia oe me ka makee, o ka kou mau hoalauna, ma ka hooluhihewa, a ua hoopoina mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
13 Behold, therefore, I have smitten my hand at thy dishonest gain which thou have made, and at thy blood which has been in the midst of thee.
Nolaila ea, ua pai au i kuu mau lima i kou waiwai alunu i loaa ia oe, a me kou koko i hookaheia iwaenakonu ou.
14 Can thy heart endure, or can thy hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee? I, Jehovah, have spoken it, and will do it.
E hiki anei i kou naau ke hoomanawanui, a e ikaika anei kou mau lima i na la e lalau aku ai au ia oe? Na'u na Iehova i olelo, a na'u no ia o hana.
15 And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee through the countries, and I will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
E lulu aku au ia oe iwaena o na lahuikanaka, a e hooleilei aku ia oe iwaena o na aina, a e hoopau aku i kou haumia mailoko aku ou.
16 And thou shall be profaned in thyself, in the sight of the nations. And thou shall know that I am Jehovah.
A e lawe oe i kou hooilina iloko ou iho, imua i ke alo o na lahuikanaka, a e ike oe owau no Iehova.
17 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
18 Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me. All of them are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace. They are the dross of silver.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, ua lilo ka ohana a Iseraela i lepo ia'u nei; o lakou a pau he keleawe, he piuta, he hao, a he kepaupoka, iloko o ka umu hoohehee; he lepo no hoi o ke kala.
19 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because ye have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem
Nolaila, wahi a Iehova ka Haku; no ka lilo ana o oukou a pau i lepo, nolaila, ea, e hoakoakoa au ia oukou iwaenakonu o Ierusalema;
20 as they gather silver and brass and iron and lead and tin into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt it. So I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there, and melt you.
E like me ko lakou houluulu ana i ke kala, a me ke keleawe, a me ka hao, a me ke kepaupoka a me ka piuta iwaenakonu o ka umu hoohehee, e puhi i ke ahi maluna olaila, e hoohehee iho; pela e houluulu ai au, me ko'u huhu a me ko'u ukiuki, a e waiho iho, a e hoohehee ia oukou.
21 Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst of it.
Oia, e houluulu au ia oukou, a e puhi maluna o oukou iloko o ke ahi o ko'u ukiuki, a pau oukou i ka hooheheeia iwaenakonu ona.
22 As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so ye shall be melted in the midst of it. And ye shall know that I, Jehovah, have poured out my wrath upon you.
Me he kala la i hooheheeia iwaena konu o ka umu hoohehee, pela oukou e hooheheeia'i iloko ona; a e ike oukou ua ninini aku au i ko'u huhu, maluna o oukou.
23 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Hiki mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
24 Son of man, say to her, Thou are a land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e olelo aku oe ia ia, O oe no ka aina i waele ole ia, a i ua ole ia i ka la i huhu ai.
25 There is a conspiracy by her prophets in the midst of it, like a roaring lion ravening the prey. They have devoured souls. They take treasure and precious things. They have made her widows many in the midst thereof.
He ohumu kipi o kona mau kaula iwaenakonu ona, e like me ka liona e uwo ana, e haehae ana i ka mea pio; ua ai lakou i na uhane, ua lawe lakou i ke kala, a me na mea makamae; a ua hoonui lakou nona i na wahinekanemake iwaena konu ona.
26 Her priests have done violence to my law, and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, nor have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
Ua hana ino kona mau kahuna pule i kuu kanawai, a ua hoohaumia lakou i kuu mea hoano; aole lakou i hookaawale iwaena o na mea hoano a me na mea haumia, aole hoi i hoakaka lakou iwaena o ka mea maemae a me ka mea maemae ole, ua huna hoi lakou i ko lakou mau maka i ko'u mau Sabati, a ua hoohaumiaia wau iwaena o lakou.
27 Her rulers in the midst of it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
O kona mau alii, iwaenakonu ona, ua like me na ilio hihiu hae e haehae ana i ka mea pio, e hookahe i ke koko, a e luku hoi i na uhane e loaa ia lakou ka waiwai alunu.
28 And her prophets have daubed for them with untempered mortar, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, Thus says the lord Jehovah, when Jehovah has not spoken.
Ua hamo aku kona mau kaula ia lakou me ka puna ikaika ole, e nana ana i ka mea lapuwale, a e wanana ana i na mea wahahee no lakou, e olelo ana, Ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei, aole nae i olelo Iehova.
29 The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery. Yea, they have vexed the poor and needy man, and have oppressed the sojourner wrongfully.
Ua hooluhihewa na kanaka o ka aina, a kaili wale i ka mea kaili, ua hookaumaha lakou i ka mea haahaa, a me ka mea nele; oia, ua hookaumaha lakou i ka malihini ma ka pono ole.
30 And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.
Imi aku la au i kahi kanaka iwaena o lakou e hana hou i ka pa, a e ku ma kahi naha imua o ko'u alo no ka aina, i ole au e luku aku ia ia; aole hoi i loaa ia'u.
31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way upon their heads, says the lord Jehovah.
Nolaila ninini aku la au i ko'u ukiuki maluna o lakou, ua hoopau au ia lakou me ke ahi o ko'u huhu; o ko lakou aoao ponoi ka'u i hoopai aku ai maluna o ko lakou mau poo, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
