Jeremiah 48
1 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says about Moab: Disaster is coming to the town of Nebo, because it will be destroyed. The town of Kiriathaim will be captured and humiliated; the fortress will be torn down and its people shamed.
MA ke ku e ia Moaba, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei; Auwe oe, e Nebo! no ka mea, ua anaiia oia; ua hoohilahilaia o Kiriataima, a ua pio hoi; ua hoohilahilaia o Misegaba, a ua makau.
2 No one praises Moab anymore. People in Heshbon are plotting, “We will destroy Moab as a nation. People of the town of Madmen, we will silence you too—you will be attacked by swords and chased down.”
Aole e hookiekie hou ia o Moaba ma Hesebona; na noonoo hewa lakou ia ia; e hele mai. e hooki kakou i kona aupuni ana. E okiia no hoi oe, e Mademena, e hahai no ka pahikaua ia oe.
3 Listen to the cries from Horonaim: “Violence and terrible destruction!”
He leo no ka uwe ana, mai Horonaima mai, he anaiia, a me ka hiolo nui ana.
4 Moab will be smashed. Hear the little ones crying for help.
Ua anaiia o Moaba; ua uwe na kamalii uuku a loheia.
5 People weep as they go up to Luhith; and as they come down to Horonaim their sad cries at the destruction echo around.
I ka pii ana o Luhita, e pii mai no ka uwe nui ana, a i ka iho ana o Horonaima, ua lohe no na enemi i ka uwe ana o ka make.
6 Run away! Save yourselves! Be like a scrawny tamarisk tree in the desert!
E pee, e malama i ko oukou ola, i like auanei oe me ka mea noho wale o ka waonahele.
7 It's because you put your confidence in what you do and what you own that you too will be captured. Your god Chemosh will be taken into exile along with his priests and leaders.
No ka mea, ua hilinai oe i kau mau hana, a i kou waiwai, e pio auanei oe; a e hele aku ko Kemosa iloko o ke pio ana, me ko lakou poe kahuna, a me ko lakou poe alii.
8 The invaders will attack every town; not a single one will escape destruction. The valley will be ruined, and the plain will be destroyed, for the Lord has spoken.
E hele mai no ka mea anai, maluna o na kulanakauhale a pau, aole pakele kekahi kulanakauhale; e make pu no ke awawa, e lukuia hoi ka papu, o like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai.
9 Put up gravestones in Moab, because the country will become a wasteland. Its towns will be turned into ruins where no one lives.
E haawi i eheu no Moaba, i pee aku oia a pakele; no ka mea, e oki loa auanei kona mau kulanakauhale, aohe mea nana e noho maloko.
10 A curse on those who don't do the Lord's work properly. A curse on those who don't use their swords to kill.
E poino auanei ka mea hana molowa i ka hana o Iehova: e poino no hoi ka mea keakea i kona pahikaua i ke koko.
11 The people of Moab have been living comfortably since the country was founded. They're like wine that hasn't been disturbed, not poured from one container to another. So the taste and fragrance remains the same. They haven't experienced exile.
Ua moe malie o Moaba, mai kona wa opiopio mai, ua laua malie no maluna o kona maku, aole i ukuhiia, mai kekahi hue a i kekahi hue, aole hoi ia i hele iloko o ke pio ana, nolaila i koe mai ia ia kona ono, aole hoi i hoopauia kona ala.
12 But watch out, the time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will send them “winemakers” who will pour them out like wine. They will empty out the Moabites, and smash them like jars.
Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la, wahi a Iehova, e hoouna aku ai au io na la i mau mea hoohio, e hoohio ia ia, a e ninini i ko kona mau hue, a o wawahi i ko lakou mau huewai.
13 Then the Moabites will feel let down by Chemosh, just as the people of Israel felt let down when they trusted in the golden calf idol at Bethel.
A e hilahila auanei o Moaba ia Kemosa, e like me ka Iseraela i hilahila ia Betela, i ko lakou mea i hilinai ai.
14 How on earth can you Moabites say, “We're heroes, strong men ready to fight in battle”?
Pehea ka oukou olelo ana, He poe kanaka ikaika makou, a koa i ke kaua?
15 Moab is going to be destroyed and its towns conquered. Its finest young men will be killed, declares the King, whose name is the Lord Almighty.
Ua anaiia o Moaba, a ua pii aku, mai kona kulanakauhale aku, a o kona poe opiopio i waeia, ua iho aku lakou ilalo i ka make, wahi a ke Alii, o Iehova o na kaua kona inoa.
16 Moab's doom is about to happen; destruction is rushing down on them.
Ua kokoke no ka poino o Moaba e hiki mai, Ke wikiwiki mai nei kona pilikia.
17 Mourn for them, all you surrounding nations, everyone who knows them! Let others know how the great scepter has been smashed, the rod that once proudly ruled!
E uwe oukou ia ia, e ka poe a pau e hoopuni ana ia ia; E olelo oukou, e ka poe a pau i ike i kona inoa, Nani ka uhai ana o ke kookoo ikaika, a me ka laau maikai!
18 Come down from your glory and sit on the dusty ground, you who live in Dibon, for Moab's destroyer will come and attack you, destroying your fortresses.
E ke kaikamahine e noho la ma Dibona, E iho mai oe, mai kou nani mai, E noho hoi maloko o ka makewai; No ka mea, e pii mai no ka mea anai ia Moaba maluna ou, E hoohiolo hoi i kou mau pakaua.
19 Stand at the roadside and watch, you who live in Aroer. Ask the men and women who are running away to escape, “What's happened?”
E ka wahine e noho la ma Aroera, E ku ma ke alanui, a e nana; E ninau aku i ka mea e hee ana, A i ka wahine hoi i pakele, E i aku, Heaha ka mea i hanaia?
20 Moab has been humiliated because it has been defeated. Weep and wail! Shout out beside the River Arnon that Moab has been destroyed!
Ua hoohilahilaia o Moaba, No ka mea, ua hooauhee loa ia: E aoa, a e uwe aku no hoi, E hai aku ma Arenona, ua anaiia o Moaba,
21 Punishment has arrived on the towns of the high plain—on Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,
Ua hiki mai ka hoopai ana maluna o ka aina papu, Maluna o Holona, a maluna o Iaheza, a maluna hoi o Mepaata,
22 on Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,
A maluna o Dibona, a maluna o Nebo, a maluna hoi o Beta-Dibelataima,
23 on Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,
A maluna o Kiriataima, a maluna o Beta-Gamula, a maluna o Beta-Meona,
24 on Kerioth, Bozrah, and on all the towns of Moab, whether far away or nearby.
A maluna o Keriota, a maluna o Bozera, A maluna hoi o na kulanakauhale a pau o ka aina o Moaba, Ma kahi loihi aku, a kokoke mai hoi.
25 Moab's strength is gone; their power has been broken, declares the Lord.
Ua hookiia ka pepeiaohao o Moaba, Ua hai hoi kona lima, wahi a Iehova.
26 Make the people of Moab drunk, because they defied the Lord. Then they will roll around in their own vomit, as people laugh at them.
E hoohainu oukou ia ia a ona, No ka mea, ua hookiekie oia imua o Iehova; E haluku hoi o Moaba maloko o kona luai, A e lilo oia i mea e heneheneia'i.
27 Didn't you Moabites used to ridicule the Israelites? But they weren't ever found to be thieves, were they? Yet whenever you talk about them, you shake your heads in contempt.
Aole anei o ka Iseraela he mea henehene nou? Ua loaa anei oia iwaena o ka poe aihue? No ka mea, mai ka wa mai o kau olelo ana nona, Ua luliluli oe i ke poo.
28 You people living in Moab, run from your towns, go and live among the rocks. Be like a dove nesting on the cliffs at the entrance to a ravine.
E ka poe e noho la ma Moaba, E haalele oukou i na kulanakauhale, E noho hoi oukou ma kahi pohaku, E like hoi oukou me ka manu nunu I hana i kana punana ma na aoao o ka waha o ka lua.
29 We know all about how pompous Moabites are, how extremely proud and conceited they are, arrogantly thinking so highly of themselves.
Ua lohe no makou i ka hookiekie loa ana o Moaba, (Ua hookano loa oia, ) I kona maoi, a me ka haanui ana, I kona hoohaha, a me ke kiekie o kona naau.
30 I'm well aware of how disrespectful they are, declares the Lord, but it doesn't matter. They make empty boasts, and what they do is just as empty.
Ua ike no wau i kona huhu, wahi a Iehova, A me kona kaena wale ana; Aole e hiki ke hooko ia mea.
31 So I will weep for Moab; I will cry out for all the Moabites; I will mourn for the people of Kir-heres.
Nolaila, e aoa no wau no Moaba, A e hooho no wau no Moaba a pau; E kanikau no hoi i na kanaka o Kireheresa.
32 will weep for you, people of the town of Sibmah with its vineyards, more than I weep for the town of Jazer. Your vines have spread to the sea, and all the way to Jazer. But the destroyer has stolen your harvest of summer fruit and grapes.
Me ke uwe ana o Iazera, e uwe aku au ia oe, e ke kumu waina o Sibema. Ua hala'e la kou mau lala, a kela aoao o ka moana, Ua hiki aku i ka moana o Iazera. O ka mea nana e hao, ua haule mai ia maluna o kau hua o ke kau, A maluna hoi o kou pawaina.
33 There's no more celebration and happiness in Moab's orchards and fields. I have stopped the grape juice flowing from the winepresses. No one shouts for joy as they tread out the grapes. No, their shouts now are not because of joy!
Ua laweia ka olioli, a me ka hauoli, mai ka mahinaai aku, A mai ka aina o Moaba aku hoi. Ua hooki au i ka waina o na luakaomi waina; Aohe mea nana e hahi me ka hooho, E lilo ko lakou hooho i hooho ole.
34 Cries for help reach from Heshbon to Elealeh and all the way to Jahaz. They're shouting out from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah, for even the water in the Nimrim Brook has dried up.
Ua hookiekie lakou i ko lakou leo iluna, Mai ka uwe ana o Hesebona, a hiki i Eleale, a i Iahaza hoi, A mai Zoara aku a hiki i Horonaima, Me he keiki bipi wahine la, ekolu ona makahiki; No ka mea, e pau auanei na wai o Nimerima.
35 I'm going to finish off those in Moab who sacrifice on the pagan high places and burn incense to their gods, declares the Lord.
Maloko o Moaba, wahi a Iehova, E hooki aku au i ka mea e mohai ana ma na wahi kiekie, A me ka mea kuni i ka mea ala no kona poe akua.
36 So I mourn inside like a flute playing a sad song for Moab; like a flute playing a funeral tune for the people of Kir-heres, because they've lost everything of value that they worked for.
Nolaila, e kani no ko'u naau me he ohe kani la no Moaba, A me he ohe kani la e kani ai ko'u naau no na kanaka o Kireheresa; No ka mea, ua lilo ka waiwai ana i loaa'i.
37 As signs of their mourning, every head is shaved, every beard is trimmed, every hand has a gash, and every waist is wearing sackcloth.
E ohule auanei kela poo, keia poo, E kahiia na umiumi a pau, E okiokiia auanei na lima a pau, A e humeia na puhaka i ka lole inoino.
38 Everyone is mourning on all the flat roofs and streets of Moab, because I have smashed the country like a jar nobody wants, declares the Lord.
He uwe nui ana maluna o na hale a pau o Moaba, A ma kona mau alanui no hoi; No ka mea, ua wawahi au ia Moaba, wahi a Iehova, Me he ipu la i makemake ole ia.
39 Moab is completely shattered! Listen to them cry! See how the Moabites turn away in shame! All the surrounding nations are horrified at what's happened to the country, and ridicule its people.
E uwe aku lakou penei, Nani kona oki loa i ka makau! Nani ko Moaba huli hope ana i ka hilahila! E lilo no o Moaba i mea e akaakaia'i, I mea hoi e makau ai ka poe a pau a puni ona.
40 This is what the Lord says: Watch as an enemy like an eagle swoops down, spreading its wings as it attacks Moab.
No ka mea, ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e lele no oia, me he aito la, A e hohola aku i kona mau eheu maluna o Moaba.
41 Kirioth has been conquered, and the fortresses captured. At that time Moab's warriors will be as scared as a woman in labor.
Ua hoopioia o Keriota, ua hoopioia no na pakaua, A i kela la, e like auanei na naau o na kanaka ikaika o Moaba, Me ka naau o ka wahine nahukuakoko.
42 Moab will cease to exist as a nation because they defied the Lord.
E anaiia auanei o Moaba a lilo i aupuni ole, No ka mea, ua hookiekie oia imua o Iehova.
43 You people living in Moab, what's waiting for you are terror, traps, and snares, declares the Lord.
E loohia auanei oe i ka makau, a me ka lua, a me ka pahele, E ka mea noho ma Moaba, wahi a Iehova.
44 You will run away in terror and fall into a trap, and when you climb out of the trap, you'll be caught in a snare. I will do this to the Moabites at the time when they're punished, declares the Lord.
O ka mea holo, mai ka makau aku, E haule no ia ilko o ka lua; A o ka mea pii, mai ka lua mai, E pau auanei ia i ka pahele: No ka mea, e lawe mai no wau maluna ona, maluna hoi o Moaba, I ka makahiki o ka hoopai ana, wahi a Iehova.
45 Those who run away will be left defenseless in Heshbon where they went for protection, because fire blazes out from Heshbon, a fire from where Sihon once reigned. It burns up the whole country of Moab and its defiant people.
Ku no ka poe i hee ma ka malu o Hesebona no ka ikaika ole; E puka mai no nae ke ahi mai Hesebona mai, O ka lapalapa ahi hoi maloko mai i Sihona, E hoopau no ia i ka mokuna o Moaba, A me ka piko poo o na kanaka hoohaunaele.
46 What a disaster has come to you Moabites! The people of Chemosh have been wiped out. Your sons and daughters have been taken prisoner and have gone into exile.
Auwe oe, e Moaba! ua make na kanaka o Kemosa: No ka mea, ua laweia kau mau keikikane, i pio kane, A me kau mau kaikamahine hoi, i pio wahine.
47 But even so, later on, I will bring the people of Moab back from exile, declares the Lord. This is the end of the description of the judgment on Moab.
Aka, e hoihoi no wau i ke pio ana o Moaba, Ke hiki i na la mahope, wahi a Iehova. Oia no ka hoopaiia'na o Moaba.
