Jeremiah 40
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, after Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were carried away captive to Babylon.
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, mahope iho o ko Nebuzaradana, ko ka lunakaua lawepio ana ia ia, a ua hookuu aku ia ia mai Rama aku, no ka mea, ua hoopaa oia ia ia i na kaulahao, me ka poe pio a pau o Ierusalema, a me ka Iuda, ka poe i lawe pio ia i Babulona.
2 And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said to him, Jehovah thy God pronounced this evil upon this place,
Lawe ae la ka lunakaua ia Ieremia, i mai la ia ia, Ua olelo no o Iehova kou Akua, i keia hewa no keia wahi.
3 and Jehovah has brought it, and done according as he spoke. Because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing has come upon you.
Na Iehova hoi ia i lawe mai, a hana e like me kana olelo ana. No ka oukou hana hewa ana ia Iehova, me ka hoolohe ole i kona leo, nolaila i hiki mai ai keia mea maluna o oukou.
4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which are upon thy hand. If it seem good to thee to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will look well to thee, but if it seems ill to thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear. Behold, all the land is before thee, where it seems good and right to thee to go, there go.
Aia hoi, ke kala aku nei au ia oe i keia la, i na kaulahao ma kou lima. Ina he mea maikai i kou mau maka, ke hele pu me au i Babulona, o hele, a e kau no ko'u mau maka maluna ou. Aka, ina he mea ino i kou mau maka ke hele pu me au i Babulona, ua oki no: e nana hoi, aia no ka aina a pau imua ou, ma kahi maikai a pono i kou mau maka ke hele oe, malaila oe e hele ai.
5 Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back then to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people, or go wherever it seems right to thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him food and a present, and let him go.
A mamua o kona hoi ana, i ae la ia, E hoi aku oe ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, ka mea a ke alii o Babulona i hoonoho ai i kiaaina maluna o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a e noho oe me ia iwaena pu me na kanaka; a ma kahi pono i kou mau maka ke hele, malaila oe e hele ai. A haawi mai la ka lunakaua, i ai nana, a i makana no hoi, a hookuu mai la ia ia.
6 Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and dwelt with him among the people who were left in the land.
Alaila, hele ae la o Ieremia io Gedalia la i ke keiki a Ahikama, ma Mizepa; a noho pu me ia iwaena o na kanaka i koe ma ka aina.
7 Now when all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, and women, and sons, and of the poorest of the land, of those who were not carried away captive to Babylon,
A lohe na luna o ka poe koa a pau ma na papu, o lakou a me ko lakou poe kanaka, ua hoonoho ke alii o Babulona ia Gedalia i kiaaiua no ka aina, a ua haawi mai i kanaka nona, a me na wahine a me na kamalii, i na mea hune hoi o ka aina, i ka poe i lawe pio ole ia i Babulona;
8 then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, namely, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
Alaila, hele mai la ia Gedalia, ma Mizepa, o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania, a me Iohanana, a me Ionatana, na keiki a Karea, a me Saraia, ke keiki a Tanehumeta, a me na keiki a Epai no Netopati, a me Iezania, ke keiki a ka Maaka, o lakou a me ko lakou poe kanaka.
9 And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore to them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
A hoohiki o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, ia lakou, a me ko lakou poe kanaka, i ae la, Mai makau ke hookauwa aku no ko Kaledea. E noho no ma ka aina, a e hookauwa aka no ke alii o Babulona, a e pomaikai auanei oukou.
10 As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans who shall come to us. But ye, gather ye wine and summer fruits and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that ye have taken.
Owau hoi, e noho no wau ma Mizepa, e hoolaulea i ko Kaledea i hele mai ia kakou. A o oukou hoi, e hoiliili oukou i ka waina, a me na hua o ke kau, a me ka aila, a e ukuhi iloko o ko oukou hue, a e noho ma na kulanakauhale a oukou e noho nei.
11 Likewise when all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the sons of Ammon, and in Edom, and who were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan,
Alaila, o na Iudaio a pau, e noho ana ma Moaba, a iwaena hoi o ka Amona, a me Edoma, a ma na aina a pau, ia lakou i lohe ai, ua waiho mai ke alii o Babulona i koena o ka Iuda, a ua hoonoho ia Gedalia ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, maluna o lakou;
12 then all the Jews returned out of all places where they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and gathered very much wine and summer fruits.
Hoi ae la na Iudaio a pau, mai loko mai o na wahi a pau a lakou i kipakuia'i, a hele mai la io Gedalia la, ma Mizepa, a hoiliili i ka waina a me na hua o ke kau he nui loa.
13 Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
Alaila, hele mai la o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, a me na luna o na koa a pau e noho ana ma na papu io Gedalia la, ma Mizepa,
14 and said to him, Do thou know that Baalis the king of the sons of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take thy life? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam did not believe them.
I mai la ia ia, Ua ike pono anei oe, ua hoouna mai o Baalisa, ke alii o ka Amona, ia Isemaela, i ke keiki a Netania, e pepehi ia oe? Aole i manao o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, he oiaio ka lakou.
15 Then Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it. Why should he take thy life, that all the Jews who are gathered to thee should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?
A olelo malu mai la o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea ia Gedalia, ma Mizepa, i mai, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai ia'u, e hele, a e pepehi no wau ia Isemaela i ke keiki a Netania, me ka ike ole o kekahi kanaka. No ke aha la oia e pepehi ai ia oe, i hooauheeia'i na Iudaio a pau i akoakoa mai iou la, a make hoi ke koena o ka Iuda?
16 But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said to Johanan the son of Kareah, Thou shall not do this thing, for thou speak falsely of Ishmael.
Alaila, olelo aku la o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, ia Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, Mai hana oe ia mea, no ka mea, he wahahee kau e olelo mai nei no Isemaela.
