Jeremiah 9
1 Who will give water to my head, and a fountain of tears to my eyes? and I will weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people.
A UWE! ina i lilo kuu poo i wai, a me kuu mau maka hoi i kumu waimaka, i uwe aku ai au i ke ao a me ka po, no ka poe i pephiia o ko kaikamahine o ko'u poe kanaka!
2 Who will give me in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men, and I will leave my people, and depart from them? because they are all adulterers, an assembly of transgressors.
Auwe hoi! ina ia'u ma ka waonahele ko ka poe hele wahi e moe ai; i haalele ai au i ko'u poe kanaka, a e hele, mai o lakou aku! no ka mea, he poe moe kolohe lakou a pau, he ahakanaka kipi.
3 And they have bent their tongue, as a bow, for lies, and not for truth: they have strengthened themselves upon the earth, for they have proceeded from evil to evil, and me they have not known, saith the Lord.
Lena no lakou i ko lakou mau alelo, e like me ko lakou kakaka, no ka wahahee. Aole lakou hookoa ma ka oiaio maluna o ka honua; no ka mea, hele no lakou, mai kekahi hewa, a i kekahi hewa, aole hoi lakou i ike mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova.
4 Let every man take heed of his neighbor, and let his not trust in any brother of his: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every friend will walk deceitfully.
E makaala kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna, mai hilinai hoi i kekahi hoahanau; no ka mea, e wahahee loa no kela hoahanau, keia hoahanau; a hele ahiahi no na hoalauna a pau.
5 And a man shall mock his brother, and they will not speak the truth: for they have taught their tongue to speak lies: they have laboured to commit iniquity.
E hoopunipuni no kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna, aole olelo i ka mea oiaio; ua maa ko lakou alelo e olelo i na wahahee, hoomaloeloe lakou ia lakou iho e hana i ka hewa.
6 Thy habitation is in the midst of deceit: Through deceit they have refused to know me, saith the Lord.
Aia no kou wahi noho ai iwaena konu o ka hoopunipuni; no ka hoopunipuni, hoole mai lakou, aole e ike mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold I will melt, and try them: for what else shall I do before the daughter of my people?
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua peneia. Aia hoi, e hoohehee no wau ia lakou, a e hoao hoi ia lakou; no ka mea, heaha la wau e hana'i no ke kaikamahine o ko'u poe kanaka?
8 Their tongue is a piercing arrow, it hath spoken deceit: with his mouth one speaketh peace with his friend, and secretly he lieth in wait for him.
O ko lakou alelo, he pua ia i panaia'ku, olelo no ia i ka hoopunipuni. Olelo oluolu aku kekahi i kona hoalauna me ka waha, aka, ma ka naau, ua hoohalua ia ia.
9 Shall I not visit them for these things, saith the Lord? or shall not my soul be revenged on such a nation?
Aole anei au e hoopai ia lakou no keia mau mea, wahi a Iehova? Aole anei e ko ka ukiuki o kuu uhane i ka lahuikanaka e like me keia?
10 For the mountains I will take up weeping and lamentation, and for the beautiful places of the desert, mourning: because they are burnt up, for that there is not a man that passeth through them: and they have not heard the voice of the owner: from the fowl of the air to the beasts they are gone away and departed.
E olo no wau i ka pihe no na mauna, me ka uwe aku, a e kumakena no hoi no na wahi mauu o ka waonahele, no ka mea, ua pau lakou i ke ahi; nolaila, aole hiki kekahi ke hele malaila, aole hoi e loheia ka leo o na holoholona. Ua holo aku no ka manu o ka lewa, a me ka holoholona, ua hala lakou.
11 And I will make Jerusalem to be heaps of sand, and dens of dragons: and I will make the cities of Juda desolate, for want of an inhabitant.
A e hoolilo no wau ia Ierusalema i mau puu, he noho ana hoi no na ilio hihiu; a e hooneoneo no wau i na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, aohe mea noho iloko.
12 Who is the wise man, that may understand this, and to whom the word of the mouth of the Lord may come that he may declare this, why the land hath perished, and is burnt up like a wilderness, which none passeth through?
Owai ke kanaka akamai i hoomaopopo i keia? A ua olelo hoi ka waha o Iehova ia ia, a nana hoi e hai aku i ka mea i make ai ka aina, a neoneo e like me ka waonahele, i ole e hele ae kekahi maloko?
13 And the Lord said: Because they have forsaken my law, which I gave them, and have not heard my voice, and have not walked in it.
I mai la o Iehova, No ko lakou haalele ana i ko'u kanawai, i ka mea a'u i kau ai imua o lakou, aole hoi i hoolohe i ko'u leo, aole hoi i hele mamuli o ia;
14 But they have gone after the perverseness of their own heart, and after Baalim, which their fathers taught them.
Aka, ua hele lakou mamuli o ka paakiki o ko lakou naau iho, a mamuli o na Baala hoi, na mea a ko lakou poe makua i ao mai ai ia lakou;
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will feed this people with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
Nolaila, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Aia hoi, e hanai aku no wau ia lakou, i keia poe kanaka hoi, i ka awaawa, a e hoohainu aku au ia lakou i ka wai o ke au.
16 And I will scatter them among the nations, which they and their fathers have not known: and I will send the sword after them till they be consumed.
A e hoopuehu aku au ia lakou iwaena o ko na aina e, i ka poe i ike ole ia e lakou, aole hoi e ko lakou mau makuaa; e hoouna aku au i ka pahikaua mahope o lakou, a hoopau au ia lakou.
17 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, and let them come: and send to them that are wise women, and let them make haste:
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, E hoonaauao oukou, a e hea aku i na wahine e olo pihe ana, i hele mai lakou, a e kii aku hoi i na wahine kumakena, i hele mai lakou;
18 Let them hasten and take up a lamentation for us: let our eyes shed tears, and our eyelids run down with waters.
E hoowikiwiki hoi lakou, a e olo pihe no kakou i kahe ka wai o ko Kakou mau maka, i poha aku hoi ko kakou mau alumaka i na wai.
19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Sion: How are we wasted and greatly confounded? because we have left the land, because our dwellings are cast down.
No ka mea, ua loheia ka leo o ka uwe ana, mai Ziona mai, Nani ko kakou lukuia! Ua hilahila loa kakou, no ka mea, ua haalele kakou i ka aina, no ka mea, ua kipaku aku ko kakou wahi noho ai ia kakou.
20 Hear therefore, ye women, the word of the Lord: and let your ears receive the word of his mouth: and teach your daughters wailing: and every one her neighbor mourning.
Aka, e hoolohe mai oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, o na wahine, a e lawe hoi ko oukou pepeiao i ka olelo a kona waha, a e ao aku i ka oukou mau kaikamahine i ka uwe ana, a o kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna i ke kumakena ana.
21 For death is come up through our windows, it is entered into our houses to destroy the children from without, the young men from the streets.
No ka mea, ua pii mai no ka make, a iloko o ko kakou puka ma kani, ua komo no iloko o ko kakou halealii, e hooki ae ia i na kamalii mawaho, a me ua kanaka opiopio ma ke alanui.
22 Speak: Thus saith the Lord: Even the carcass of man shall fall as dung upon the face of the country, and as grass behind the back of the mower, and there is none to gather it.
E i aku Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E haule no na kupapau o kanaka e like me ka lepo ma ke kula, e like hoi me ka pua ai mahope o ka mea hoiliili ai; aohe mea nana lakou e hoiliili.
23 Thus saith the Lord: Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, and let not the strong man glory in his strength, and let not the rich man glory in his riches:
Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, Mai kaena wale ka mea akamai i kona akamai ana, mai kaena wale hoi ka mea ikaika i kona ikaika ana, a mai kaena ka mea waiwai i kona waiwai ana;
24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, for I am the Lord that exercise mercy, and judgment, and justice in the earth: for these things please me, saith the Lord.
Aka o ka mea kaena, e kaena oia i keia, i kona hoomaopopo ana, a i kona ike aua ia'u, owau no o Iehova, ka mea hana aku i ka lokomaikai, a me ka hoopono, a me ka maikai ma ka honua; no ka mea, ke lealea nei au ia mau mea, wahi a Iehova.
25 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, and I will visit upon every one that hath the foreskin circumcised.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la. wahi a Iehova, e hoopai pu aku ai au i ka poe a pau i okipoepoeia me ka poe i okipoepoe ole ia:
26 Upon Egypt, and upon Juda, and upon Edom, and upon the children of Ammon, and upon Moab, and upon all that have their hair polled round, that dwell in the desert: for all the nations are uncircumcised in the flesh, but all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in the heart.
I ko Aigupita, a me ka Iuda a me ka Edoma. a me na keiki a Amona, a me ka Moaba, a me na mea a pau i ako i ka uminmi, ka poe e noho la ma ka waonahelo; no ka mea, ua okipoepoe ole ia ko na aina e a pau, a ua okipoepoe ole ia ko ka hale a pau o ka Iseraela, ma ka maau.
