Jeremiah 14
1 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought.
KA olelo a Iehova i hiki mai io Ieremia la no ka wi.
2 Judah mourns, and the gates thereof languish. They sit in black upon the ground, and the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.
Ke kanikau nei o ka Iuda, a kumakena hoi kona mau pukapa; ua eleele hoi a ilalo i ka lepo; ua pii aku la no ka uwe ana o ko Ierusalema.
3 And their ranking men send their little ones to the waters. They come to the cisterns, and find no water. They return with their vessels empty. They are put to shame and confounded, and cover their heads,
O kolaila poe koikoi, ua hoouna lakou i ka lakou poe uuku e kii i ka wai; ua hele mai hoi lakou i na luawai, aole loaa ia lakou ka wai: hoi aku no lakou, aohe mea iloko o ko lakou hue. Hilahila iho la lakou, a hoopalaimaka, a pulou iho la i ko lakou mau poo.
4 because of the ground which is cracked. Because no rain has been in the land, the plowmen are put to shame; they cover their heads.
No ka mea, ua nakaka ka lepo, no ka na ole maluna o ka honua. Ua hilahila ka poe mahiai, ua pulou lakou i ko lakou mau poo.
5 Yea, the hind also in the field calves, and forsakes it because there is no grass.
Oia, hanau ae la ka dia ma ke kula, a haalele iho la, no ka mea, aohe mauu.
6 And the wild donkeys stand on the bare heights. They pant for air like jackals. Their eyes fail because there is no herbage.
Ku mai la hoi na hoki hihiu ma na wahi kiekie; hau ae la lakou i ka makani e like me na iliohae; pau iho la no hoi ko lakou mau maka no ka mea, aohe mauu.
7 Though our iniquities testify against us, work thou for thy name's sake, O Jehovah. For our backslidings are many. We have sinned against thee.
E Iehova, ke hoike ku e mai nei ko makou hewa ia makou, aka, e hana mai oe no kou inoa iho; no ka mea, ua nui loa ko makou hoi hope ana, ua hana hewa makou ia oe.
8 O thou hope of Israel, the Savior of it in the time of trouble, why should thou be as a sojourner in the land, and as a wayfaring man who turns aside to tarry for a night?
E ka mea e manaolana'i o ka Iseraela, o kona Hoola i ka manawa o ka popilikia, no ke aha la oe e like ai me ka malihini maloko o ka aina, a e like hoi me ke kanaka hele, i kipa'e e moe i kekahi po?
9 Why should thou be as a man frightened, as a mighty man who cannot save? Yet thou, O Jehovah, are in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name. Do not leave us.
No ke aha la oe e like ai me ke kanaka pilihua, e like hoi me ke kanaka koa hiki ole ke hoola? Aka, o oe, e Iehova, eia no oe iwaenakonu o makou, a ua kapaia makou ma kou inoa; mai haalele oe ia makou.
10 Thus says Jehovah to this people: Even so they have loved to wander. They have not restrained their feet. Therefore Jehovah does not accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.
Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova i keia poe kanaka, ua makemake no lakou e hele hewa pela, aole lakou i kaohi i ko lakou mau wawae; nolaila, aole i ae mai o Iehova ia lakou; e hoomanao no oia i ko lakou hewa, a e hoopai hoi i ko lakou hala.
11 And Jehovah said to me, Pray not for this people for good.
Alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Mai pule aku oe no keia poe kanaka, no ka maikai.
12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry. And when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
Ia lakou e hookeai ai, aole au e hoolohe i ko lakou kahea ana; a ia lakou e kaumaha'i i ka mohai kuni, a me ka mohai makana, aole au e ae aku ia lakou; aka, e hoopau no wau ia lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau.
13 Then I said, Ah, lord Jehovah! Behold, the prophets say to them, Ye shall not see the sword, nor shall ye have famine, but I will give you assured peace in this place.
Alaila, i iho la au, Auwe, e ka Haku, e Iehova e! Aia hoi, ke olelo mai nei na kaula ia lakou, Aole oukou e ike i ka pahikaua, aole hoi e loaa ia oukou ka wi; aka, e haawi aku no au ia oukou i ka malu oiaio ma keia wahi.
14 Then Jehovah said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name. I did not send them, nor have I commanded them, nor did I speak to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, and divination, and a thing of naught, and the deceit of their own heart.
Alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ke wanana nei na kaula i ka wahahee ma ko'u inoa. Aole au i hoouna aku ia lakou, aole hoi au i kauoha aku la ia lakou, aole hoi au i olelo ia lakou. Ke wanana nei lakou ia oukou i hihio wahahee, a me ka anaana, a me ka mea hope ole, a me ka wahahee o ko lakou naau.
15 Therefore thus says Jehovah concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name, and I did not send them, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land: By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed.
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, no na kaula, ka poe i wanana ma ko'u inoa, aole hoi au i hoouna aku ia lakou; aka, ke olelo nei lakou, Aole e hiki mai ka pahikaua, aole hoi ka wi iloko o keia aina: E hoopauia ua poe kaula la, i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi.
16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword, and they shall have none to bury them-them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters. For I will pour their wickedness upon them.
A o na kanaka a lakou i ao aku ai i ka wanana ana, e kiolaia'ku no lakou iloko o na alanui o Ierusalema, no ka wi, a me ka pahikaua; aohe o lakou mea nana lakou e kanu, o lakou, a me ka lakou wahine, aole hoi ka lakou keikikane, aole ka lakou kaikamahine; no ka mea, e ninini aku au i ko lakou hewa maluna o lakou.
17 And thou shall say this word to them: Let my eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease. For the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous wound.
Nolaila, e olelo aku oe i keia olelo ia lakou; E kahe no ko'u mau maka i ka wai, i ka po a me ke ao, aole hoi laua e hooki; no ka mea, ua lukuia i ka luku nui ke kaikamahine puupaa o ko'u poe kanaka, i ka hahau ino loa.
18 If I go forth into the field, then, behold, the slain with the sword! And if I enter into the city, then, behold, those who are sick with famine! For both the prophet and the priest go about in the land, and have no knowledge.
Ina e hele aku au i ke kula, alaila, e nana i ka poe i lukuia i ka pahikaua! a ina komo wau iloko o ke kulanakauhale, alaila, e nana aku i ka poe i mai no ka wi! Oia, kaahele aku no ke kaula, a me ke kahuna iloko o ka aina a lakou i ike ole ai.
19 Have thou utterly rejected Judah? Has thy soul loathed Zion? Why have thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? We looked for peace, but no good came, and for a time of healing, and, behold, dismay!
Ua hoole loa anei oe i ka Iuda? Ua hoopailua anei kou uhane ia Ziona? No ke aha la oe i pepehi mai ai ia makou, aole hoi he hoola no makou? Kakali makou i ka malu, aole hoi he pono: a i ka hoola hoi, aia hoi, he popilikia!
20 We acknowledge, O Jehovah, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers, for we have sinned against thee.
E Iehova, ua ike no makou i ko makou hewa, a me ka hala o ko makou poe makua; no ka mea, ua hana hewa aku makou ia oe.
21 Do not abhor us. For thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory. Remember, do not break thy covenant with us.
Mai hoowahawaha mai oe, no kou inoa iho, mai hoino oe i ka nohoalii o kou nani. E hoomanao, mai uhai oe i kou berita me makou.
22 Are there any among the vanities of the nations that can cause rain? Or can the heavens give showers? Are not thou he, O Jehovah our God? Therefore we will wait for thee, for thou have made all these things.
Aia anei iwaena o na mea lapuwale o na aina e kekahi mea hooua mai i ka ua? E hiki anei i na lani ke haawi mai i ka ua? Aole anei o oe ia, e Iehova, ko makou Akua? Nolaila makou e hilinai aku ai ia oe; no ka mea, ua hana oe i keia mau mea a pau.
