< Jeremiah 44 >
1 The word that came through Jeremiah to all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, living at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the land of Pathros, saying:
O KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la no na Iudaio a pau e noho ana ma ka aina o Aigupita, ka poe hoi e noho ana ma Migedola, a ma Tahepanesa, a ma Nopa, a ma ka aina i Paterosa, i mai la,
2 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You yourselves have seen all this evil that I have led over Jerusalem and over all the cities of Judah. And behold, they are desolate to this day, and there is no inhabitant in them,
Ke i mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Ua ike no oukou i ka hewa a pau a'u i lawe mai ai maluna o Ierusalema, a maluna o na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Iuda; a aia hoi lakou i keia la, ua anaiia, aohe kanaka e noho ana maloko,
3 because of the wickedness which they have done, so that they provoked me to wrath, and because they went to offer sacrifice and worship to strange gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.
No ko lakou hewa a lakou i hana'i e hoonaukiuki mai ai ia'u, i ko lakou hele ana e puhi i ka mea ala, a e malama i na'kua e a lakou i ike ole ai, aole lakou, aole oukou, aole hoi ko oukou mau makua.
4 And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, rising in the night, and sending, and saying: ‘Do not choose to do this abominable word, which I hate.’
A hoouna aku no hoi au i ka'u mau kauwa a pau, i na kaula e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna, me ka olelo aku, Ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, mai hana i kela mea ino loa, a'u e ukiuki nei.
5 But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear, so that they would convert from their evil, and so that they would not sacrifice to strange gods.
Aole lakou i hoolohe, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao, e huli, mai ko lakou hewa aku, e puhi ole i ka mea ala no na akua e.
6 And so my indignation and my fury was fanned and kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they have been turned into desolation and devastation, just as it is this day.
Nolaila, i nininiia'i ko'u huhu, a me ko'u ukiuki, a ua hoaaia maloko o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema, a ua anaiia, a ua olohelohe, me ia i keia la.
7 And now, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, so that, among you, man and woman, child and infant would pass away from the midst of Judah, and so that no remnant at all would be left behind of you?
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, No ke aha la oukou e hana nei i keia hewa nui i ko oukou uhane iho, e hooki ae mai o oukou aku, i ke kane a me ka wahine, a me ke kamalii, a me ke keiki ai waiu, mai ka Iuda aku i koe ole kekahi no oukou;
8 For you have provoked me by the works of your hands, by sacrificing to strange gods in the land of Egypt, into which you have entered in order to live there, and so that you would perish and become a curse and a disgrace before all the nations of the earth.
I ko oukou hoonaukiuki ana ia'u, i na hana a ko oukou lima, e puhi ana i ka mea ala no na akua e, ma ka aina o Aigupita, kahi o oukou i hele aku ai e noho, i hooki ae oukou ia oukou iho, i lilo hoi oukou i mea poino, a i mea hoowahawaha, ma na aina a pau o ka honua?
9 How could you have forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Judah, and the evils of their wives, and your own evils, and the evils of your own wives, which they have done in the land of Judah and in the regions of Jerusalem?
Ua poina anei ia oukou ka hewa o ko oukou poe makua, a me ka hewa o na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka hewa o ka lakou poe wahine, a me ko oukou hewa iho, a me ka hewa o ka oukou poe wahine, a lakou i hana'i ma ka aina o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema?
10 They have not been cleansed, even to this day. And they have not feared, and they have not walked in the law of the Lord and in my precepts, which I have given before you and before your fathers.
Aole nae lakou i mihi, a hiki i keia la, aole hoi i makau, aole hoi i hele ma ko'u kanawai, aole hoi ma ka'u mau kauoha, a'u i kau ai imua o oukou, a imua hoi o ko oukou mau makua.
11 For this reason, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face upon you for evil. And I will disperse all of Judah.
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Aia hoi, e kau aku au i ko'u maka ku e ia oukou, no ka hewa, a e hooki ae au i ka Iuda a pau.
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, who had set their faces so that they would enter into the land of Egypt and live there, and they will all be consumed in the land of Egypt. They will fall by the sword and by famine. And they will be consumed, from the least, even to the greatest. By sword and by famine shall they die. And they will be an oath, and a wonder, and a curse, and a disgrace.
A e lalau aku au i ke koena o ka Iuda, ka poe i huli ko lakou maka e hele i ka aina o Aigupita, e noho malaila, a e hoopauia lakou a pau, a e haule hoi ma ka aina o Aigupita. E hoopauia lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a e make lakou, mai ka mea uuku a ka mea nui, i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi; a e lilo lakou i mea hailiiliia, a i mea e kahaha'i, a i mea poino, a i mea hoowahawaha.
13 And I will visit against those who are living in the land of Egypt, just as I have visited against Jerusalem: with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence.
No ka mea, e hoopai no wau i ka poe e noho la ma ka aina o Aigupita, me ha'u i hoopai ai i ko Ierusalema, i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau.
14 And there will be no one who escapes, of those who remain among the remnant of the Jews, those who have gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt. And they wish to be returned to the land of Judah, for they lift up their souls so that they might return and live there. But there will be no one who may return, except those who will flee.”
Aole hoi e pakele a koe kekahi koena o ka Iuda, i hele aku nei i Aigupita e noho malaila, aole hoi hou i ka aina o ka Iuda, kahi i makemake ai ko lakou naau e hoi a noho malaila; aohe mea e hoi, o na mea pakele wale no.
15 Then all the men, knowing that their wives were sacrificing to strange gods, and all of the women, a great multitude of whom were standing there, and all of the people who were living in the land of Egypt at Pathros, responded to Jeremiah, by saying:
Alaila, o na kanaka a pau i ike i ka puhi ana o ka lakou wahine i ka mea ala no na akua e, a me na wahine a pau e ku mai ana, he poe nui, o na kanaka a pau hoi i noho ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma Paterosa, olelo mai la lakou ia Ieremia, i mai la,
16 “Concerning the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not heed you.
O ka olelo au i olelo mai ai ia makou ma ka inoa o Iehova, aole makou e hoolohe aku ia oe.
17 But we will continue to do every word which proceeds from our own mouth, so that we sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and we pour out libations to her, just as we and our fathers have done, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.
Aka, oiaio no, o hana makou i na mea a pau i puka aku, mai ko makou waha aku, e puhi i ka mea ala no ke alii wahine o ka lani, a e ninini hoi i na mohai inu ia ia, me makou i hana'i, o makou a me ko makou poe makua, a me ko makou poe alii, a me ko makou poe luna, ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema: no ka mea, ia manawa he nui ka makou ai, aole hoi o makou mai, aole makou i ike i ka ino.
18 But since the time that we ceased to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out libations to her, we have been in need of all things, and we have been consumed by the sword and by famine.
Aka, mahope mai o ko makou hooki ana e kuni i ka mea ala no ke alii wahine o ka lani, a e ninini hoi i mohai inu nona, ua nele makou i na mea a pau, a ua oki loa makou i ka pahikaua a me ka wi.
19 But when we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven and pour out libations to her, do we make cakes for her worship and offer libations to her without our husbands?”
I ka wa i kuni ai makou i ka mea ala no ke alii wahine o ka lani, a ninini i mohai inu nona, aole anei a makou kane, ia makou i hana'i i papa berena nana, i mea hoomana, a ia makou i ninini ai i mohai inu nona?
20 And Jeremiah spoke to all the people, facing the men, and facing the women, and facing all the people who had responded this word to him, saying:
Alaila olelo aku la o Ieremia i na kanaka a pau, i na kane a me na wahine, a me na kanaka a pau loa, ka poe i olelo mai ia ia, i aku la ia,
21 “Was this not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land, which has been called to mind by the Lord and which has entered into his heart?
O ka mea ala a oukou i kuni ai ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema, o oukou, a me ko oukou poe makua, a me ko oukou poe alii, a me ko oukou poe luna, a me na kanaka o ka aina, aole anei i hoomanao o Iehova ia mau mea, aole anei i komo ia iloko o kona manao?
22 And the Lord could no longer bear this, because of the evil of your intentions, and because of the abominations that you have done. And so, your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, and it is without an inhabitant, even to this day.
Aole i hiki ia Iehova ke hoomanawanui hou aku, no ka hewa o ka oukou hana ana, a no na mea hoopailua a oukou i hana'i; nolaila, ua lilo ko oukou aina i olohelohe, i mea e kahaha'i, i wahi poino, me ka mea ole nana e noho, me ia i keia la.
23 This is because you have sacrificed to idols, and you have sinned against the Lord. And you have not heeded the voice of the Lord, and you have not walked in his law, and in his precepts, and in his testimonies. It is for this reason that these evils have happened to you, just as it is today.”
No ka mea, ua kuni oukou i ka mea ala, a ua hana hewa oukou ia Iehova, aole hoi i hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova, aole hoi i hele mamuli o kona kanawai, aole mamuli o kana mau kauoha, a me kana hoike ana; nolaila i hiki mai ai keia hewa maluna o oukou, me ia i keia la.
24 Then Jeremiah said to all the people and to all the women: “Listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are in the land of Egypt:
Olelo aku no hoi o Ieremia i na kanaka a pau, a i na wahine a pau, E hoolohe mai oukou i ka leo o Iehova, e ka Iuda a pau ma ka aina o Aigupita.
25 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken it with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hands, saying: ‘Let us perform our vows that we have made, so that we may offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out libations to her.’ You have fulfilled your vows and accomplished their works.
Olelo mai o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei; i mai la, Ua olelo no oukou, a me ka oukou wahine, ma ko oukou mau waha, a ua hana hoi ko oukou mau lima, ua i mai oukou, Oiaio no e hooko no makou i ko makou hoohiki ana a makou i hoohiki ai, e kuni i ka mea ala no ke alii wahine o ka lani, a e ninini i mohaiinu nona; e hooko io no oukou i ko oukou hoohiki ana, a e hana io no oukou i na mea a oukou i hoohiki ai.
26 Because of this, listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah, who live in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says the Lord, that my name will never again be invoked by the mouth of any man of Judah in the land of Egypt, saying: ‘As the Lord God lives.’
No ia mea la, ea, e hoolohe mai oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e ka Iuda, ka poe e noho la ma ka aina o Aigupita; Aia hoi, ua hoohiki no wau ma ko'u inoa nui, wahi a Iehova, aole e hea hou ia ko'u inoa, ma ka waha o kekahi kanaka o ka Iuda, ma ka aina o Aigupita, i ka i ana ae, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ke Akua.
27 Behold, I will be vigilant over them for harm, and not for good. And all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be consumed, by the sword and by famine, until they are thoroughly consumed.
Aia hoi, e kiai no wau ia lakou, no ka hewa, aole no ka maikai; a e hoopauia na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, ka poe noho ma ka aina o Aigupita, i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a pau wale lakou.
28 And a few men, who will flee from the sword, will return from the land of Egypt into the land of Judah. And all the remnant of Judah, who had entered into the land of Egypt so as to live there, will know whose word will be completed, mine or theirs.
E hoi nae kekahi poe uuku, mai ka aina o Aigupita ae a i ka aina o ka Iuda, o ka poe hoi i pakele i ka pahikaua; aka, o ke koena o ka Iuda a pau i hele i ka aina o Aigupita e noho malaila, e ike auanei lakou i ka olelo kupaa, o ka'u paha, o ka lakou paha.
29 And this will be a sign to you, says the Lord, that I will visit against you in this place, so that truly you may know that my words will be completed against you for harm.”
A o keia hoi ka hoailona no oukou, wahi a Iehova, e hoopai aku au ia oukou ma keia wahi, i ike auanei i ka oiaio o ke kupaa ana o ka'u olelo ku e ia oukou;
30 Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I will deliver Pharaoh Hophra, the king of Egypt, into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who are seeking his life, just as I delivered Zedekiah, the king of Judah, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, his enemy and the one who was seeking his life.”
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, penei; Aia hoi, e haawi aku no wau ia Parao-hopera, ke alii o Aigupita, iloko o ka lima o kona poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe imi i kona ola, me ka'u i haawi ai ia Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, i kona enemi, i ka mea hoi nana i imi i kona ola.
