Ezekiela 15
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1HIKI mai la hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia'u i mai la,
1And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2E ke keiki a ke kanaka, heaha ka oi o ke kumu waina mamua o ke kumu laau e ae, a mamua o ka lala laau iwaena o na laau o ka ululaau?
2Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
3E laweia anei kauwahi laau ona e hana'i i kekahi hana? E lalau anei kanaka i kahi kui noloko o ia mea e kau aku i kekahi ipu malaila?
3Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?
4Aia hoi, ua hooleiia ia iloko o ke ahi i wahie, a ua pau i ke ahi na welau elua ona, a wela hoi ka waena ona. He mea pono anei ia no ka hana?
4Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for any work?
5Aia hoi, i kona okoa ana, aole pono ia no ka hana. A i ka pau ana i ke ahi, a wela hoi, ua pono anei ia no kahi hana?
5Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned?
6Nolaila ke olelo nei Iehova ka Haku penei; E like me ke kumu waina iwaena o na kumu laau o ka ululaau a'u i haawi ai i ke ahi i wahie, pela o haawi aku ai au i na kanaka o Ierusalema.
6¶ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7A e hooku e au i ko'u maka ia lakou; e puka lakou mai loko aku o kekahi ahi, a e pau lakou i kekahi ahi; a e ike oukou owau no Iehova i ko'u wa e hooku e ai i ko'u wahi maka ia lakou.
7And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD , when I set my face against them.
8A e hooneoneo loa au i keia aina, no ka lakou hana hewa ana, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
8And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD .
