Ezera 9
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1A PAU keia mau mea i ka hanaia, hele mai na luna ia'u, i mai la, O na kanaka o ka Iseraela, a me na kahuna, a me na Levi, aole lakou i hookaawale ia lakou iho mai na kanaka o na aina aku, e hana ana no e like me na mea hoopailua o ka Kanaana, o ka Heta, o ka Periza, o ka Iebusa, o ka Amona, a me ka Aigupita, a me ka Amora.
1Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
2A ua lawe lakou i na kaikamahine a lakou i wahine na lakou, a na ka lakou mau keikikane; a ua hui pu ka poe laa ia lakou iho me na kanaka e na aina; a o na haku, a me na luna, o lakou ke kumu o keia hewa.
2For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this trespass.
3A lohe au i keia mea, haehae iho la au i kuu lole komo, a me kuu aahu, a huki aku la i ke oho o kuu poo, a me kuu umiumi, a noho pilihua iho la au.
3And when I heard this thing, I rent my garment and my mantle, and plucked off the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down astonied.
4Alaila houluuluia ae la io'u nei ka poe a pau i haalulu i na olelo a ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no ka hewa o ka poe i pio; a noho pilihua iho la au, a hiki i ka mohai ahiahi.
4Then were assembled unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the transgression of those that had been carried away; and I sat astonied until the evening sacrifice.
5A i ka mohai ahiahi ku ae la au mai kuu kanmaha ana, a haehae iho la i kuu lole komo, a me kuu aahu, kukuli iho la au, a hohola aku la i kuu mau lima ia Iehova i ko'u Akua.
5¶ And at the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and having rent my garment and my mantle, I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the LORD my God,
6I aku la, E kuu Akua e, ua hilahila wau, ua wiwo hoi, ke nana ae ko'u mau maka ia oe, e kuu Akua: no ka mea, ua hoonuiia ko makou hewa maluna o ke poo, a ua hookiekieia ko makou hala i ka lani.
6And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.
7Mai ka manawa o ko makou poe makua, ua noho makou iloko o ka hewa nui, a hiki i keia manawa; a uo ko makou hewa, i haawiia makou, a me ko makou mau alii, a me ko makou poe kahuna, iloko o ka lima o na'lii o na aina e, i ka pahikaua, a i ka lawe pio ana, a i ka lukuia, a i ka hilahila o na maka, e like me ia i keia la.
7Since the days of our fathers have we been in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, and our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
8Ano i ka wa pokole, ua ahonuiia makoa, mai Iehova ko makou Akua mai, e waiho mai no makou i kekahi poe i pakele, a e haawi mai ia makou i ka onipaa ana ma kona wahi hoano, i hoomalamalama mai ai ke Akua i ko makou maka, a i haawi mai ai i wahi oluolu iki iloko o ko makou luhi.
8And now for a little space grace hath been shewed from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
9No ka mea, he poe makou i hooluhiia; aka, aole i haalele mai ko makou Akua ia makou i ko makou luhi ana, a ua haawi mai ia makou i ka lokomaikaiia imua o na'lii o Peresia, e haawi mai ia makou i ka oluolu, e kukulu i ka hale o ko makou Akua, a e hana hou i kona mau wahi i hiolo, a e haawi ia makou i wahi pa ma Iuda a ma Ierusalema.
9For we were bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10Ano, e ko makou Akua, heaha ka makou e olelo aku ai mahope o keia? no ka mea, ua haalelo makou i kau mau kauoha,
10And now, O our God, what shall we say after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,
11Na mea au i kauoha mai ai ma ka lima o kau poe kauwa, na kaula, i mai la, O ka aina, kahi a oukou e hele ai a komo, he aina haumia i ka mea haumia o na kanaka o na aina, me ko lakou mea hoopailua, na mea a lakou i hoopiha ai me ko lakou mau mea pelapela mai kela aoao, a hiki i keia aoao.
11Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
12No ia mea, mai haawi aku oukou i ka oukou poe kaikamahine na ka lakou mau keikikane, a mai lawe hoi i ka lakou mau kaikamahine na ka oukou poe keikikane, aole hoi e imi i ko lakou malu, a me ko lakou pono i na manawa a pau; i ikaika ai oukou, a ai hoi i ka maikai o ka aina, a e waiho aku ia i wahi e noho ai no ka oukou poe keiki i ka manawa pau ole.
12Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever.
13A mahope o na mea a pau i hiki mai ai maluna o makou no ka makou hana hewa ana, a me ko makou lawehala nui ana, no ka mea, o oe ko makou Akua, ua hoopai unku mai ia makou i ko makou hewa, a ua haawi mai oe no makou i ka pakele e like me keia.
13And after all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that thou our God hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve , and hast given us such deliverance as this;
14E haihai hou anei makou i kau mau kauoha, a e mare makou me na kanaka o keia mau mea haumia? aole anei oe e huhu mai ia makou, a hoopau mai oe ia makou, aohe mea koe, aohe mea pakele?
14Should we again break thy commandments, and join in affinity with the people of these abominations? wouldest not thou be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us , so that there should be no remnant nor escaping?
15E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, he pono kou; no ka, mea, ke koe nei makou e pakele ana, e like me ia i keia la; eia hoi makou imua ou iloko o ko makou hala; no ka mea, aole e hiki ia makou ke ku imua ou no keia mea.
15O LORD God of Israel, thou art righteous: for we remain yet escaped, as it is this day: behold, we are before thee in our trespasses: for we cannot stand before thee because of this.
