Jeremiah 21
1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, when king Zedekiah sent unto him Pashhur the son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying:
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai i ka wa i hoouna aku ai o Zedekia, ke alii, io na la, ia Pasehura, ke keiki a Malekia, a me Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia, ke kahuna, i aku la,
2 'Inquire, I pray thee, of the LORD for us; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon maketh war against us; peradventure the LORD will deal with us according to all His wondrous works, that he may go up from us.'
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e noi aku ia Iehova no kakou; no ka mea, ke kaua mai nei o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona ia kakou; ina paha e hana mai o Iehova ia kakou, e like me kana hana kupanaha a pau, i pii aku ke alii o Babulona, mai o kakou aku.
3 Then said Jeremiah unto them: Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
Alaila, olelo mai la o Ieremia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Zedekia;
4 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, wherewith ye fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans, that besiege you without the walls, and I will gather them into the midst of this city.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, Aia hoi, e hoihoi hope aku no au i na mea kaua, na mea maloko o ko oukou lima, na mea a oukou i kaua ai i ke alii o Babulona, a i ko Kaledea, ka poe hoopilikia mai ia oukou mawaho o na pa, a e hoiliili au ia mau mea maloko o keia kulanakauhale.
5 And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
A owau no kekahi e kaua aku ia oe, me ka lima kakauha, a me ka lima ikaika, me ka huhu no, a me ka inaina, a me ka ukiuki loa.
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast; they shall die of a great pestilence.
A e hahau no wau i ka poe noho ma keia kulauakauhale, i kanaka, a me na holoholona; a e make no lakou i ka mai ahulau nui.
7 And afterward, saith the LORD, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life; and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have compassion.
A mahope iho, wahi a Iehova, e haawi no wau ia Zedekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, a me kana poe kauwa, a me kona poe kanaka, na mea o keia kulanakauhale i koe i ke ahulau, a me ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, o ke alii o Babulona, a iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe imi i ko lakou ola; a e hahau mai no oia ia lakou i ka maka o ka pahikaua. Aole ia e hookoe ia lakou, aole e aloha mai, aole hoi e lokomaikai mai.
8 And unto this people thou shalt say: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
Ae olelo aku oe i keia poe kanaka, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, ke kau nei au imua o oukou i ka aoao o ke ola, a me ka aoao o ka make.
9 He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he that goeth out, and falleth away to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey.
O ka mea e noho ma keia kulanakauhale, e make no ia i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau; aka, o ka mea puka aku iwaho, a haule aku i ko Kaledea, ka poe e hoopilikia ana ia oukou, e ola no ia, a e koe no kona ola i waiwaipio nona iho.
10 For I have set My face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith the LORD; it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
No ka mea, ua hooku e au i ko'u maka i keia kulanakauhale, ma ka hewa, aole ma ka maikai, wahi a Iehova; a e haawiia ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e puhi oia i keia wahi i ke ahi.
11 And unto the house of the king of Judah: Hear ye the word of the LORD;
E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, no ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda.
12 O house of David, thus saith the LORD: Execute justice in the morning, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest My fury go forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
E ko ka hale o Davida, ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, E hana oukou i ka hooponopono i kakahiaka, a e hoopakele i ka mea i haoia, mai ka lima aku o ka mea hookaumaha, o puka aku ko'u ukiuki, e like me ke ahi, a e a hoi, aole mea e hiki ia ia ke kinai, no ka hewa o ka oukou hana ana.
13 Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rock of the plain, saith the LORD; ye that say: 'Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?'
Aia hoi, ua ku e no wau ia oe, e ka mea noho ma ke awawa, a ma ka pohaku o ka papu hoi, wahi a Iehova, ka poe olelo, Owai la ka mea iho ilalo e ku e ia makou? Owai la ka mea e komo iloko o ko makou wahi noho ai?
14 And I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the LORD; and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is round about her.
Aka, e hoopai aku au ia oukou, e like me ka hua o ka oukou hana ana, wahi a Iehova; a e puhi no wau i ke ahi iloko o kolaila ululaau, a e hoopau no ia i na mea a pau, a puni ia wahi.
