Jeremiah 13
1 This is what the Lord told me to do: Go and buy yourself a linen loincloth and put it on, but don't wash it.
KE olelo mai nei o Iehova ia'u penei, O hele, a e lawe nou i kaei olona, a e hume ma kou puhaka, a mai waiho hoi ia iloko o ka wai.
2 So I went and bought a loincloth as the Lord had instructed me, and I put it on.
A lawe iho la au i ke kaei, e like me ka olelo a Iehova, a hume iho la au ma kuu puhaka.
3 Then the Lord gave me another message:
Hiki hou mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, o ka lua ia, i mai la,
4 Take the loincloth that you bought and put on, and go immediately to the River Perath and hide it there in a hole among the rocks.
E lawe oe i ke kaei i loaa ia oe, ka mea ma kou puhaka, a e ku iluna, a e hele i Euperate, a e huna ia mea malaila, ma ke ana o ka pohaku.
5 So I went and hid it at the River Perath, as the Lord had told me.
A hele aku la au, a huna iho la ia, ma Euperate, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia'u.
6 A long time later the Lord told me, Go to Perath, and get the loincloth that I ordered you to hide there.
A hala na la he nui, alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, E ku iluna, a e hele i Euperate, a e lawe mai i ke kaei a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe e huna malaila.
7 I went to Perath and dug up the loincloth, and removed it from where I'd hidden it. Obviously it was ruined—completely useless.
Alaila, hele aku la au i Euperate, a kohi iho la, a lawe ae la i ke kaei, mai kahi aku a'u i huna ai la mea; a aia hoi, ua ino ke kaei, he mea waiwai ole loa hoi.
8 Then a message from the Lord came to me:
Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
9 This is what the Lord says: I will ruin the arrogance of Judah and the great arrogance of Jerusalem in exactly the same way.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E like me keia e hoino aku ai au i ka manao kiekie o ka Iuda, a me ka manao kiekie loa o ko Ierusalema.
10 These evil people refuse to listen to what I tell them. They follow their own stubborn and evil thinking and run off to worship other gods—they will be like this loincloth, completely useless.
O keia poe kanaka hewa, ka poe manao ole e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo, ka poe i hele ma ka paakiki o ko lakou naau, a hahai hoi mamuli e na akua e, e malama ia lakou, a e hoomana ia lakou, e like auanei lakou me keia kaei, ka mea waiwai ole loa.
11 In the same way that a loincloth holds tightly to the body, so I made all the people of Israel and Judah hold tightly to me, declares the Lord. Then they could have been my people, representing me, giving me honor and praise. But they refused to listen.
No ka mea, e like me ke kaei i pili i ka puhaka o ke kanaka, pela i hoopili mai ai au i ko ka hale a pau o ka Iseraela, a me ko ka hale a pau o ka Iuda ia'u, wahi o Iehova; i lilo mai lakou i poe kanaka no'u, a i inoa hoi, a i mea e hoomaikaiia'i, a i nani hoi; aka, aole lakou i hoolohe.
12 So tell them this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Every wine jar shall be filled with wine. When they reply, “Don't we know that already? Of course every wine jar should be filled with wine!”
Nolaila oe e olelo ai ia lakou i keia olelo; Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, E hoopihaia no na hue a pau i ka waina, a e olelo mai no lakou ia oe, Aole anei kakou e ike maopopo, e hoopihaia na hue a pau no i ka waiua?
13 then tell them that this is what the Lord says: I'm going to make everyone who lives in this land drunk—the kings sitting on David's throne, the priests, the prophets, and all the people of Jerusalem.
A e olelo aku no oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, o ka poe a pau e noho la ma keia aina, o na'lii e noho ana ma ka noho alii o Davida, o na kahuna, a me na kaula, a me ka poe a pau e noho la ma Ierusalema, e hoopiha no wau ia lakou i ka ona.
14 I'm going to smash them against each other like wine jars, both parents and children, declares the Lord. I won't let any mercy or pity or compassion stop me from destroying them.
A e ulupa no wau ia lakou, kekahi maluna o kekahi, o na makuakane, a me na keikikane pu, wahi a Iehova; aole hoi au e aloha aku, aole au e hookuu, aole au e lokomaikai aku, aka, e anai aku no wau ia lakou.
15 Listen and pay attention. Don't be arrogant, for the Lord has spoken.
E hoolohe mai oukou, a e haliu mai hoi ka pepeiao: mai hookano, no ka mea, ua olelo no o Iehova.
16 Honor the Lord your God before he brings the darkness, before you trip and fall in the twilight on the mountains. You long for light to come, but he send only gloom and complete darkness.
E hoonani aku ia Iehova, i ko oukou Akua, mamua o kona hoopoeleele ana mai, a mamua hoi o ke kulanalana ana o ko oukou mau wawae ma na mauna pouli, a oiai oukou e kakali i ka malamalama, hoolilo oia ia i aka no ka make, a hana hoi i pouli loa.
17 But if you refuse to listen, I will weep secretly inside because of your pride. My tears pouring down because the Lord's flock has been captured.
Aka, ina aole oukou e hoolohe ia, alaila, e uwe no kuu uhane no oukou ma na wahi malu, no ka hookano; a e uwe nui loa no ko'u mau maka, a kahe ka waimaka, no ka mea, ua lawepioia ka poe hipa a Iehova.
18 Tell the king and the queen mother: Get down from your thrones, because your splendid crowns have fallen from your heads.
E i aku i ke alii kane a i ke alii wahine, E hoohaahaa ia olua iho, e noho ilalo; no ka mea, e hoohaahaaia no ko olua mau pookela, a me ka leialii o ko olua nani.
19 The towns in the Negev are surrounded; no one can get through to them. The whole of Judah has been taken away into exile, everyone has been exiled.
E paniia no na kulanakauhale o ke kukulu hema, aohe mea nana e wehe: e lawepioia o ka Iuda a pau, e lawepioia a lilo loa no.
20 Look up and you'll see the invaders coming from the north. Where is the flock that was given to you to look after? Where are the sheep you were so proud of?
E alawa'e i ko oukou mau maka iluna, a e nana i ka poe e hele ana, mai ke kukulu akau mai. Auhea ka poe hipa i haawiia nau, o ka poe hipa hoi o kou nani?
21 What are you going to say when he puts your enemies in charge of you, people you once counted as your friends? Won't you suffer pains like a woman in labor?
Pehea la oe e olelo ai i ka wa e hoopai mai oia ia oe? Aole anei e loohia oe i ka eha e like me ka wahine hanau keiki, no ka mea, ua ao aku no oe ia lakou e noho kapena, a e noho alii maluna ou.
22 If you say to yourself, Why has this happened to me? it's because you have been so wicked. That's why your skirts were stripped off and you were raped.
A ina olelo oe ma kou naau, No ke aha la i hiki mai ai keia mau mea maluna o'u? No ka nui loa o kou hewa i laweia'ku la na hua lole ou, ua waiho wale ia kou mau kuekue wawae.
23 Can Ethiopians change the color of their skin? Can a leopard change its spots? In the same way you can't change and do good because you're so used to doing evil.
E hiki anei i ko Aitiopa ke hoano e i kona ili, a me ka leopadi i kona mau kiko? alaila oukou, ka poe maa i ka hana hewa, e hiki ai ke hana maikai.
24 I'm going to scatter you like chaff blown away by the desert wind.
Nolaila, e hoopuehu aku au ia lakou, e like me ka opala i lilo aku la i ka makani o ka waoakua.
25 This is what's going to happen to you; this is what I have decided to do to you, declares the Lord, because you have forgotten me and believed in lies.
Oia no kou mea loaa, o ka haawina nou i anaia e au, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, ua hoopoina mai oe ia'u, a ua hilinai hoi i ka mea wahahee.
26 I will pull your skirts up over your face, so you will be seen naked and ashamed.
Nolaila au e wehe ae ai i ka hua lole ou iluna ma kou maka, i ikeia kou wahi hilahila.
27 I watched your acts of adultery and lust, how you prostituted yourselves shamelessly, worshiping idols on the hills and in the fields. Yes, I saw the disgusting things you did. Disaster is coming to you, Jerusalem! How long are you going to remain unclean?
Ua ike no wau i kou moekolohe ana, a me kou hau ana, a me ka hewa o kou hookamakama, a me kau hana hoopailua maluna o na puu ma ke kula. Auwe oe, e Ierusalema! Aole anei oe e hoomaemaeia? Pehea la ka loihi?
