< Ezekiel 23 >

1 Yahweh said to me,
HIKI mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 “You human, [listen to this parable about Jerusalem and Samaria]. Once there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
E ke keiki a ke kanaka, Elua aku la wahine, na kaikamahine a ka makuwahine hookahi:
3 They lived in Egypt. And from the time that they were young women, they became prostitutes. In that land, [men] fondled their breasts and caressed their bosoms [DOU].
Moe kolohe laua ma Aiguipita; moe kolohe laua i ko laua wa opiopio: malaila i kaomiia ko laua mau umauma, a malaila i paopao ai lakou i na omaka o ko laua puupaa ana.
4 The older [sister] was Oholah, and her [younger] sister was Oholibah. [It was as though] they became my [wives. Later] they gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents Jerusalem.
A o ko laua mau inoa, o Ahola ke kaikuaana, a o Aholiba kona kaikaina; a na'u no laua, a ua hanau laua i na keikikaue a me na kaikamahine. Pela hoi ko laua mau inoa, o Ahola, o Samaria ia, a o Aholiba, o Ierusalema ia.
5 Oholah acted like a prostitute while she was [still] my wife. She desired to have sex with those she loved—soldiers from Assyria.
Moe kolohe aku la o Ahola i kona wa na'u, a hauoli no ia i kana mau ipo, ko Asuria kona hoalauna,
6 [Some of them] were army officers and commanders. They wore [beautiful] blue [uniforms. They were] all handsome young men. Some of them rode horses.
I aahuia i ke kapa poni uliuli, na luna koa me na'lii, na kanaka ui e makemakeia lakou a pau, a hoohololio e holo ana maluna o na lio.
7 She acted like a prostitute toward all the important Assyrian officials, and became unacceptable to me by worshiping all the idols of the men she wanted to have sex with.
Pela ia i hana'i i kona moe kolohe ana me lakou, me ko Asuria poe a pau i waeia, a me ka poe a pau ana i hauoli ai; a me ko lakou mau akuakii a pau i hoohaumia ai oia ia ia iho.
8 When she was a young woman in Egypt, she started being a prostitute, and [young] men caressed her breasts and had sex with her; and when she became older, she did not quit acting like a prostitute.
Aole hoi ia i haalele i kona moe kolohe ana mai Aigupita mai; no ka mea, i kona wa opiopio moe pu lakou me ia, a pepe iho la i na u o kona puupaa ana, a ua ninini aku i ko lakou moe kolohe ana maluna ona.
9 So I allowed the Assyrian soldiers, whom she wanted to have sex with, to capture her.
Nolaila i haawi aku ai au ia ia iloko o ka lima o kana poe ipo, i ka lima o ko Asuria, na mea ana i hauoli ai.
10 They stripped all her clothes off her. They took away her sons and daughters. And then they killed her with a sword. [Other] women started talking about what had happened to her, about how she had been punished.
Ua wehe lakou i kona wahi huna, a lalau hoi i kana mau kaikamahine, a pepehi iho la lakou ia ia me ka pahikaua; a kaulana aku la oia iwaena o na wahine, no ka mea, ua hoopai lakou ia ia.
11 [younger] sister Oholibah saw those [that happened to Oholah], but she was a prostitute, and she desired to have sex with men more than [older] sister had desired.
A ike aku la kona kaikaina o Aholiba ia mea, ua oi aku kona hewa i kona kuko ana mamua ona, a i kona moe kolohe ana mamua o kona kaikuaana i kona moe kolohe ana.
12 Oholibah [also] wanted to have sex with the Assyrian soldiers. [Some of them were] army officers and commanders. [They all] wore beautiful blue uniforms. They were all handsome young men. [Some of] them rode horses.
Hauoli iho la oia i ko Asuria kona mau hoalauna, na luna koa a me na'lii kahiko nani ia, na hoohololio, e holo ana maluna o na lio, he poe kanaka ui lakou a pau e makemakeia.
13 I saw what she did that caused her to became unacceptable to me, just like [older] sister.
Alaila ike aku la au ua haumia ia, hele pu hoi laua i ka aoao hookahi;
14 But she did [even] worse things. She saw drawings of men from Babylonia on the walls, painted in red.
A ua hoomahuahua oia i kona moe kolohe ana; no ka mea, i kona ike ana i na kanaka i kakauia ma ka paia, o na kii o ko Kaledea i kakauia me ka pena ulaula,
15 The [in the drawings] had belts around their waists and long turbans on their heads. They all resembled officers from Babylonia [DOU] [who rode in chariots].
Kaeiia hoi me na kaei ma ko lakou puhaka, nani hoi ko lakou lole hooluuia ma ko lakou mau poo, he poe alii lakou a pau i ka nana aku, ma ke ano o ko Babulona no Kaledea, ko lakou aina hanau:
16 As soon as she saw those drawings, she wanted to have sex with those men, and she sent messages to them in Babylonia.
A i kona ike ana ia lakou me kona mau maka, hauoli aku la oia ia lakou, a hoouna aku la i na elele io lakou la ma Kaledea.
17 Then the soldiers from Babylonia came to her, they lay in bed with her, and they had sex with her. Then she became disgusted with them and turned away from them.
Hele mai la hoi ko Babela io na la iloko o ka moe aloha, a hoohaumia ia ia me ko lakou moe kolohe ana, a ua haumia oia ia lakou, a ua ku e kona manao ia lakou.
18 But when she continued to openly/boldly act like a prostitute [DOU], I became disgusted with her, and I rejected her like I had rejected [older] sister.
A pela i hoike ai oia i kona moe kolohe ana, a wehe hoi i kona wahi huna; alaila ku e ko'u manao ia ia, e like me ke ku e ana o ko'u naau i kona kaikuaana.
19 But she became even more immoral, as she remembered when she was a young woman who was a prostitute in Egypt.
Ua hoomabuahua nae oia i kona moe kolohe ana, e hoomanao ana i na la o kona opiopio ana i moe kolohe ai i ka aina o Aigupita.
20 There she wanted to have sex with those who loved her, whose genitals were [very long], like [SIM] those of donkeys, and whose sexual emissions were huge, [like] those of horses.
No ka mea, ua hauoli oia i kana mau ipo, o ko lakou io he like me ka io o na hoki, a o ko lakou kahe ana ua like me ko na lio kahe ana.
21 So she desired to be immoral like she was when she was young, when men in Egypt caressed her bosom and fondled her breasts.”
Pela i hoomanao ai oe i ka moe kolohe ana o kou wa opiopio, i ka pepe ana o kou mau omaka i ko Aigupita no na u o kou opiopio ana.
22 “[represents you people of Jerusalem]. Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I will cause those [soldiers] who loved you but whom you turned away from because you became disgusted with them, to be angry with you. I will cause them to come and attack you from every side—
Nolaila, e Aholiba, ke i mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E hooku ae au i kau mau ipo e ku e ia oe, na mea a kou naau i ku e ai, a e lawe mai au ia lakou e ku e ia oe a puni;
23 soldiers from Babylon and all the other places in Babylonia, [their allies] from Pekod and Shoa and [regions], and all the army of Assyria. [Yes], all of them are handsome young men, army officers and commanders, officers who ride in chariots, all riding on horses.
I ko Babulona, a me ko Kaledea a pau, o Pekoda, a me Soa, a me Koa, a me ko Asuria a pau me lakou; he poe kanaka ui i makemakeia lakou a pau na luna koa, me na'lii, a me na haku nui, a he kaulana hoi, e holo ana lakou a pau maluna o na lio.
24 Their huge army will attack you with weapons, riding in chariots and pulling wagons [that will carry their army supplies]. They will surround you, carrying large and small shields, and wearing helmets. I will allow them to capture you and punish you in the way that they [always] [their enemies].
A e hele ku e mai lakou ia oe me na kaa kaua, a me na kaa waiwai, a me na huila, a me ke anaina kanaka, e hoonoho ku e ia oe i ka pale kaua, i ka pale umauma, a me ka mahiole a puni; a e hoonoho aku au i ka hoopai ana imua o lakou, a e hoopai aku lakou ia oe mamuli o ko lakou hoopai ana.
25 Because I am very angry with you, I will cause them to act [very] furiously toward you. They will cut off your noses and your ears. Then, those who are still alive, they will kill with their swords. They will take away your sons and daughters, and a fire will burn up those who remain alive.
A e hooku e au i ko'u lili ia oe, a hana lakou me ka ukiuki ia oe, a o kaili lakou i kou ihu a me kou mau pepeiao; a e haule kou koena i ka pahikaua; a e lawe lakou i kau mau keikikane a me kau mau kaikamahine; a e hoopauia kou koena i ke ahi.
26 They will strip off your clothes and your fine jewelry and take them away.
E hemo hoi ia lakou kou mau kapa komo, a e kaili ae hoi lakou i kou mau mea nani e nani ai.
27 In that way, I will stop all the immoral behavior that began when you became a prostitute in Egypt. You will no longer desire to do those things, or think [what you did in] Egypt.’
Pela e hooki ai au i kou moe haumia ana, mai ou aku, a me kou moe kolohe ana no Aigupita mai, i ole oe e leha hou ae i kou mau maka ia lakou, aole hoi e hoomanao hou aku ia Aigupita.
28 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I am about to allow those whom you hate, those you became disgusted with and turned away from, to capture you.
No ka mea, ke olelo nei Iehova ka Haku, penei; Aia hoi, e haawi aku au ia oe iloko o ka lima o ka poe au i hoowahawaha ai, a i ka lima o ka poe a kou naau i ku e ai.
29 They will be cruel and take away everything that you have worked hard to acquire. They will leave you completely naked [DOU], and everyone will see that you truly are a prostitute.
A e hana aku lakou ia oe me ka inaina, a e lawe ae i kau mea i hana'i, a e waiho aku ia oe he olohelohe me ke kapa ole; a e akaka loa kou moe kolohe ana, o kou moe haumia ana a me kou hookamakama ana.
30 It is because of what you have done that you will be punished like that; you have been an immoral prostitute; you have had sex with men of other nations, and you have caused yourselves to become unacceptable to me [worshiping] their idols.
E hana aku au i keia mau mea ia oe no kou hele moe kolohe ana mamuli o na lahuikanaka, a no kou haumia ana i ko lakou mau akuakii.
31 You have behaved [the people of Samaria, who are like] your [older] sister. So I will cause you to be punished [MET] like they were punished.’
Ua hele oe ma ka aoao o kou kaikuaana; nolaila e haawi aku ai au i kona kiaha iloko o kou lima.
32 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘[You will suffer like people suffer when they drink from a cup a lot of strong alcoholic drink]: [It will be as though] you will drink from the cup that the people of Samaria drank from; a big and tall cup. Because of your drinking what is in that cup, many people will scorn you and make fun of you because there is a lot of liquid in that cup.
Olelo mai o Iehova ka Haku, penei; E inu no oe i ko ke kiaha o kou kaikuaana he hohonu a he nui; a e heneheneia oe a e akaakaia, no ka mea, he nui ko loko.
33 When you become very drunk, you will become very sad, [drinking what is in] that cup [MTY] will cause you to become ruined and deserted, like what happened [MET] to [the people of] Samaria, [who are like] [MET] your sister.
E piha auanei oe i ka ona a me ka ehaeha, me ke kiaha o ka makau a me ka neoneo, o ke kiaha o kou kaikuaana o ko Samaria.
34 You will drink all the liquid that is in that cup; then you will break that cup into pieces [use those pieces to] gash/cut your [because you will be very sad].’ [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
E inu no hoi oe ia mea, a e omo ae hoi, a e wahi no hoi oe i na apana ona, a e kaili ae i kou mau u ponoi; no ka mea, ua olelo au ia mea, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
35 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘Because you have forgotten me and rejected me [IDM], you must be punished for your immoral behavior and for [like] a prostitute.’”
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei Iehova, penei; No ka mea, ua hoopoina mai oe ia'u, a ua kiola oe ia'u mahope o kou kua; nolaila e halihali oe i kou moe haumia ana a me kou moe kolohe ana.
36 Yahweh said to me, “You human, you must [RHQ] [the people of those two cities represented by] Oholah and Oholibah. You must remind them of their detestable behavior:
Olelo hou mai la o Iehova ia'u, E ke keiki a ke kanaka, e hoahewa anei oe ia Ahola, a me Aholiba? oia, e hai aku oe ia laua i ko laua mea e inainaia;
37 [It is as though the people of those cities] have committed adultery and have murdered [MTY] people. They have been unfaithful to me by [worshiping] idols. They have even sacrificed their own children, who belonged to me, to be food for their idols.
No ka mea, ua moe kolohe laua, a he koko no iloko o ko laua mau lima, a me ko laua mau akuakii i moe kolohe ai laua, a ua hoohele laua i ka laua mau keiki i hanau na'u iwaena o ke ahi i mea ai na lakou.
38 They have done [disgraceful things]: They have caused my temple to be an unacceptable place for worship, and have not respected the Sabbath days.
Eia hoi kekahi mea a lakou i hana mai ia'u, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u wahi hoano ia la hookahi, a ua hehi hoi i ko'u mau Sabati.
39 On the same day that they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my temple, which caused it to be an unacceptable place for worshiping me.
No ka mea, i ko laua pepehi aua i ka laua mau keiki, no ko laua mau akuakii, alaila hele mai laua ia la no, iloko o ko'u wahi hoano, e hoohaumia ia wahi; pela hoi i hana'i laua, ea, iwaenakonu o kuu hale!
40 They sent messages to men [in countries] far away. And when those men arrived, [the women of those two cities] bathed themselves for them, painted their eyebrows, and put on jewelry.
Eia hou hoi, ua kii aku olua i na kanaka e hele mai lakou mai kahi loihi mai, ia lakou i hoounaia'ku ai ka elele, oia hoi, ua hiki mai lakou; no lakou hoi i holoi ai oe ia oe iho, a pena hoi i kou mau maka, a kahiko hoi ia oe iho me na mea e nani ai.
41 They sat on a beautiful couch, with a table in front of it on which they had put incense and [olive] oil that belonged to me.
A noho no oe maluna o kahi moe nui, a he papa i hoomakaukauia imua ona, maluna iho hoi i hoonoho ai oe i kuu mea ala, a me kuu aila.
42 Soon there was a noisy crowd around them. Among the crowd there were men from Sheba who had come from the [of Arabia]. They put bracelets on the arms of the [two] sisters and put beautiful crowns on their heads.
A o ka leo o ke anaina e nanea ana kekahi me ia, a ua lawe pu ia na makaainana me ka poe ona, mai ka waonahele mai, ua kau lakou i na kupee ma ko lakou mau lima, a me na lei nani maluna o ko lakou mau poo.
43 Then I said about the woman who had become exhausted by her having sex with many men, ‘Now allow those men to act toward her as though she is a prostitute, because that is all that she is.’
Alaila olelo iho au no ka mea kahiko ma ka moe kolohe ana, E moe kolohe anei lakou mo ia, a oia pu hoi me lakou?
44 So they had sex [EUP] with those two women, Oholah and Oholibah, like men have sex with prostitutes.
Aka, komo iloko lakou io na la e like me ko lakou hele ana ae iloko i ka wahine hookamakama; pela e komo ai lakou iloko io Ahola la, a io Aholiba la i na wahine moe haumia.
45 But righteous men will condemn them to be punished, like women who commit adultery and who murder others are punished, because those women commit adultery and they murder [MTY] others.
A o na kanaka pono, e hoahewa lakou ia laua e like me ka lakou hoahewa ana i na wahine moe kolohe, a mamuli hoi o ke ano o na wahine hookahe i ke koko; no ka mea, he mau wahine moe kolohe laua a he koko ko loko o ko laua mau lima.
46 So this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: Bring a mob to attack Samaria and Jerusalem, and allow that mob to cause the people of those cities to be terrified, and to rob them.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E lawe mai au i ka lehulehu maluna o laua, a e haawi aku au ia laua e laweia'ku a eha oia.
47 The mob will throw stones at [to kill them]; they will cut them into pieces with their swords, they will kill their sons and daughters, and burn down their houses.
A e hailuku aku ke anaina ia laua me na pohaku, a e kua iho ia laua ilalo me ka lakou mau pahikaua, e luku lakou i ka laua mau keiki kane a me ka laua mau kaikamahine, a e hoopau i ko laua mau hale me ke ahi.
48 In that way I will cause them to stop their immoral behavior. It will warn other women to not imitate/do what you people of Jerusalem are doing.
Pela e hoopau aku ai au i ka moe kolohe, mai ka aina aku, i aoia'ku ai na wahine a pau aole e hana mamuli o ko olua moe kolohe ana.
49 [people of Jerusalem] will be punished for your immoral behavior and for your worshiping idols. Then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
A e uku lakou i ko olua moe kolohe ana maluna o olua, a e halihali olua i na hewa o ko olua mau akuakii; a e ike no oukou owau no Iehova ka Haku.
