< Jeremiah 25 >

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la no na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, i ka makahiki aha o lehoiakima, ke keiki a losia, ke alii o ka Iuda, oia hoi ka makahiki akahi o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona:
2 So the prophet Jeremiah spoke to all the people of Judah and all the residents of Jerusalem as follows:
Ka mea a Ieremia, ke kaula i olelo ai i na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, a i ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema, i mai la,
3 “From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah until this very day—twenty-three years—the word of the LORD has come to me, and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened.
Mai ka makahiki umikumamakolu o Iosia, ke keiki a Amona, ke alii o ka Iuda a hiki loa mai i keia la, eia hoi ka makahiki iwakaluakumamakolu, ua hiki mai no ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, a ua olelo aku no wau ia oukou, e ala ana i ka wanaao e olelo aku; aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai.
4 And the LORD has sent all His servants the prophets to you again and again, but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear.
A ua hoouna mai o Iehova io oukou nei i kana mau kauwa a pau, i na kaula hoi, e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna; aka, aole oukou i hoolohe, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko oukou pepeiao e lohe ai.
5 The prophets told you, ‘Turn now, each of you, from your evil ways and deeds, and you can dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and your fathers forever and ever.
I mai la lakou, E huli hou kela mea keia mea, mai kona aoao hewa mai, a mai ka hewa mai o ka oukou hana ana, a e noho hoi i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai ia oukou, a i ko oukou poe makua, a hiki a kau, a hiki loa aku.
6 Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them, and do not provoke Me to anger with the works of your hands. Then I will do you no harm.’
A mai hele hoi mamuli o na akua e, e malama ia lakou, a e hoomana ia lakou; a mai hoonaukiuki mai oukou ia'u i na hana a ko oukou mau lima; alaila, aole au e hana ino ia oukou.
7 ‘But to your own harm, you have not listened to Me,’ declares the LORD, ‘so you have provoked Me to anger with the works of your hands.’
Aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova, i hoonaukiuki mai oukou ia'u i na hana a ko oukou mau lima, i mea e hewa'i oukou.
8 Therefore this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Because you have not obeyed My words,
Nolaila, ke olelo mai o Iehova o na kaua; No ko oukou hoolohe ole i ka'u mau olelo,
9 behold, I will summon all the families of the north, declares the LORD, and I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, whom I will bring against this land, against its residents, and against all the surrounding nations. So I will devote them to destruction and make them an object of horror and contempt, an everlasting desolation.
Aia hoi, e hoouna au, a lawe mai i na ohana kanaka a pau o ke kukulu akau, wahi a Iehova, a me Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, ka'u kauwa, a e lawe mai au ia lakou e ku e i keia aina, a e ku e i kolaila poe kanaka, a e ku e hoi i keia mau lahuikanaka a pau e puni ana, a e luku loa ia lakou, a hoolilo ia lakou i mea e pilihua ai, a i mea e hoowahawaha ai, a i neoneo mau loa.
10 Moreover, I will banish from them the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
A e lawe no wau, mai o lakou aku, i ka leo o ka olioli, a me ka leo o ka hauoli, i ka leo o ke kane mare, a me ka leo o ka wahine mare, i ke kani ana o na pohaku kaapalaoa, a me ka malamalama o ke kukui.
11 And this whole land will become a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon for seventy years.
A e lilo no keia aina a pau i neoneo, a i mea e pilihua'i. A e hookauwa aku ko keia mau aina na ke alii o Babulona, i kanahiku makahiki.
12 But when seventy years are complete, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their guilt, declares the LORD, and I will make it an everlasting desolation.
A hiki i ka manawa i hala'e na makahiki he kanahiku, alaila, e hoopai aku au i ke alii o Babulona, a me ia lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova, no ko lakou hewa, a i ka aina hoi o ko Kaledea, a e hoolilo no wau ia wahi, i neoneo mau loa.
13 I will bring upon that land all the words I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
A e lawe aku au maluna o ia aina i ka'u mau olelo a pau a'u i hai ku e ia ia, i na mea a pau hoi i kakauia maloko o ka buke a Ieremia i wanana ai e ku e i na aina a pau.
14 For many nations and great kings will enslave them, and I will repay them according to their deeds and according to the work of their hands.’”
No ka mea, e hookauwa aku lakou na na lahuikanaka he nui, a na na'lii kaulana no hoi. A e hoouku no wau ia lakou, e like me ka lakou hana ana, a e like hoi me na hana a ko lakou lima iho.
15 This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from My hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink from it.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela ia'u penei; E lawe oe i ke kiaha waina o keia ukiuki ma kuu lima, a e hoohainu aku ia i na lahuikanaka a pau a'u e hoouna aku ai ia oe io lakou la.
16 And they will drink and stagger and go out of their minds, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
A e inu no lakou, a e haalulu no, a e hehena iho, imua o ka pahikaua a'u e hoouna aku ai iwaena o lakou.
17 So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand and made all the nations drink from it, each one to whom the LORD had sent me,
A lawe iho la au i ke kiaha ma ka lima o Iehova, hoohainu aku la i na lahuikanaka a pau a Iehova i hoouna mai ai ia'u ia lakou:
18 to make them a ruin, an object of horror and contempt and cursing, as they are to this day—Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and officials;
Ia Ierusalema hoi, a i na kulanakauhale o Iuda, a i kona poe alii, a i kona poe kaukaualii, e haawi hoi ia lakou no ka hooneoneoia, i mea e pilihua ai, a i mea hoowahawaha, a i mea e poino ai, e like me ia i keia la;
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his officials, his leaders, and all his people;
Ia Parao i ke alii o Aigupita, a i kana poe kauwa, a i kana poe alii, a i kona poe kanaka a pau;
20 all the mixed tribes; all the kings of Uz; all the kings of the Philistines: Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
A i na malihini a pau, a i na a'lii o ka aina o Uza, a i na'lii a pau o na aina o ko Pilisetia, a me Asekelona, a me Aza, a me Ekerona, a me ke koena o Asedoda;
21 Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites;
Ia Edoma, a me Moaba, a me na mamo a Amona;
22 all the kings of Tyre and Sidon; the kings of the coastlands across the sea;
I na'lii a pau o Turo, ai na'lii a pau o na aina o Zidona, a i na'lii o na aina ma kela aoao o ke kai;
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair;
Ia Dedana, a me Tema, a me Buza, a me na mea a pau ma na mokuna loihi loa aku;
24 all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mixed tribes who dwell in the desert;
A i na'lii a pau o Arabia, a i na'lii a pau o na malihini e noho ana ma ka waonahele;
25 all the kings of Zimri, Elam, and Media;
A i na'lii a pau o Zimeri, a i na'lii a pau o Elama, a i na'lii a pau o Media;
26 all the kings of the north, both near and far, one after another—all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshach will drink it too.
A i na'lii a pau o ke kukuluakau, ma kahi loihi aku, a ma kahi kokoke mai, kekahi i kekahi, a i na aupuni a pau o keia ao, maluna o ka honua nei; a e inu ke alii, o Sesaka mahope o lakou.
27 “Then you are to tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Drink, get drunk, and vomit. Fall down and never get up again, because of the sword I will send among you.’
A e olelo no oe ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia; E inu oukou a ona, a e luai aku, a e hina, aole hoi e ala hou, no ka pahikaua a'u e hoouna aku ai iwaena o oukou.
28 If they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink it, you are to tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘You most certainly must drink it!
A ina hoole lakou aole lawe i ke kiaha ma kou lima e inu ai, alaila, e olelo oe ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; E inu io auanei oukou.
29 For behold, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears My Name, so how could you possibly go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the LORD of Hosts.’
No ka mea, aia hoi, ke hoomaka nei au e lawe mai i ka hewa maluna o ke kulanakauhale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, a e hoopai ole loa ia anei oukou? Aole ole ko oukou hoopaiia; no ka mea, e hea aku no wau i ka pahikaua, e hele ae maluna o ka poe a pau e noho la ma ka honua, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
30 So you are to prophesy all these words against them and say to them: ‘The LORD will roar from on high; He will raise His voice from His holy habitation. He will roar loudly over His pasture; like those who tread the grapes, He will call out with a shout against all the inhabitants of the earth.
A e wanana ku e oe ia lakou i keia mau olelo a pau, a e olelo ia lakou, E uwo mai no o Iehova, mailuna mai, a e haawi mai oia i kona leo, mai kahi e noho ai kona hemolelo mai; e uwo nui loa oia maluna o kona wahi noho ai; e like me ka poe hahi, pela no oia e hooho ai e ku e i ka poe e noho la ma ka honua.
31 The tumult will resound to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a charge against the nations. He brings judgment on all mankind and puts the wicked to the sword,’”
E hiki mai no ka uwalaau, mai na kukulu mai o ka honua; no ka mea, he paio no ka Iehova me ko na aina, e hooponopono no oia maluna o na mea io a pau; e haawi no hoi oia i ka poe hewa i ka pahikaua, wahi a Iehova.
32 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Behold! Disaster is spreading from nation to nation; a mighty storm is rising from the ends of the earth.”
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Aia hoi, e puka no ka hewa, mai kekahi aina, a i kekahi aina; a e hoalaia ka puahiohio, mai na kukulu o ka honua mai.
33 Those slain by the LORD on that day will be spread from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned, gathered, or buried. They will be like dung lying on the ground.
A i kela la, e palahalaha auanei ka poe i pepehiia e Iehova, mai kekahi kukulu o ka honua, a i kekahi kukulu: aole lakou e kumakenaia, aole hoi e hoiliiliia, aole e kanuia; e lilo lakou i lepo maluna o ka aina.
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For the days of your slaughter have come; you will fall and be shattered like fine pottery.
E aoa oukou, e na kahuhipa, a e uwe aku; a e kapi ia oukou iho i ka lehu, e ka poe malama hipa; no ka mea, ua lawa ko oukou mau la o ka pepehi, a me ka hoopuehu, a e haule no oukou, e like me ke kiaha maikai.
35 Flight will evade the shepherds, and escape will elude the leaders of the flock.
Aohe wahi no na kahuhipa e pee aku ai; aohe wahi hoi e pakele ai ka malama hipa.
36 Hear the cry of the shepherds, the wailing of the leaders of the flock, for the LORD is destroying their pasture.
He leo hoi no ka uwe ana o na kahuhipa, a me ka aoa ana o ka poe malama hipa, no ka mea, ua anai o Iehova i ko lakou wahi e ai ai.
37 The peaceful meadows have been silenced because of the LORD’s burning anger.
Ua hoopauia ko lakou wahi e noho ai me ka malu, no ka ukiuki nui o Iehova.
38 He has left His den like a lion, for their land has been made a desolation by the sword of the oppressor, and because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
Ua haalele oia i kona wahi huna me he liona la; no ka mea, ua neoneo ko lakou aina, no ka huhu nui o ka mea hookaumaha, a no kona ukiuki loa.
