< Jeremiah 34 >

1 THE word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth of his dominion, and all the people, fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities thereof, saying,
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i ka wa i kaua'i o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, a me kona poe kaua a pau, a me na aupuni a pau o ka honua, na aupuni malalo iho o kona lima, a kaua na kanaka a pau ia Ierusalema, a i kona mau kulanakauhale a pau, i mai la,
2 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei: O hele, a e olelo aku ia Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, a e hai aku ia ia, Ke i mai o Iehova penei; Aia hoi, e haawi no wau i keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e puhi no oia ia wahi i ke ahi.
3 And thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
Aole hoi oe e pakale mai kona lima aku, aka, e pio io no oe, a e haawiia iloko o kona lima; a e ike aku no kou mau maka i na maka o ke alii o Babulona, a e kamailio no kona waha me kou waha, a e hele no oe i Babulona.
4 Yet hear the word of the Lord, O Zedekiah king of Judah; Thus saith the Lord of thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword:
E Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, e hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova; Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova nou, Aole oe e make i ka pahikaua;
5 But thou shalt die in peace: and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings which were before thee, so shall they burn odours for thee; and they will lament thee, saying, Ah lord! for I have pronounced the word, saith the Lord.
E make no oe maloko o ka malubia. Me ke kuni ana no na makua ou, na'lii kahiko mamua ou, pela no lakou e kuni ai i na mea ala nou. A e kanikau lakou ia oe, Auwe ka haku! Ua hai aku no wau i ka olelo, wahi a Iehova.
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
Alaila, olelo aku no o Ieremia ke kaula i keia mau olelo a pau ia Zedekia, ko alii o ka Iuda ma Ierusalema;
7 When the king of Babylon’s army fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah: for these defenced cities remained of the cities of Judah.
A kaua ko alii o ko Babulona poe kaua ia Ierusalema, a i ua kulanakauhale a pau i koe o ka Iuda, ia Lakisa, a ia Azeka; no ka mea, o keia mau kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa i koe o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda.
8 This is the word that came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people which were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them;
O ka olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, mahope iho o ka Zedekia hana ana i berita me ka poe kanaka a pau ma Ierusalema, e kala aku i ko lakou noho kauwa ole ana;
9 That every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant, being an Hebrew or an Hebrewess, go free; that none should serve himself of them, to wit, of a Jew his brother.
I kuu wale aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwakane, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwawahine, ina he Heberakane, a ina he Heberawahine, i hoopaa ole ai kekahi i kona hoahanau Hebera i kauwa luhi wale nana.
10 Now when all the princes, and all the people, which had entered into the covenant, heard that every one should let his manservant, and every one his maidservant, go free, that none should serve themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, and let them go.
A lohe na'lii a pau, a me na kanaka a pau i komo i ka berita, e hookuu ana kela mea keia mea i kana kauwakane, a o kela mea keia mea i kana kauwawahine, i ole lakou e hoopaa ia lakou i kauwa, alaila hoolohe ae la lakou, a kuu ae la.
11 But afterward they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
A mahope iho, huli lakou, a hoihoi ae la lakou i na kauwakane, a me na kauwawahine a lakou i kuu iho ai, a hookauwa ae la ia lakou i kauwakane, a i kauwawahine.
12 Therefore the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i mai la,
13 Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying,
Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; Hana aku la au i berita me ko oukou poe kupuna, i ka la a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a mai ka hale mai o ka poe kauwa, i mai la,
14 At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
I ka pau ana o na makahiki ehiku e kuu aku oukou, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoahanau i ka Hebera i kuaiia nou; a hookauwa mai oia nau no na makahiki eono, alaila e kuu wale aku oe ia ia, mai ou aku la; aole nae i hoolohe mai ko oukou mau kupuna i ka'u, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao.
15 And ye were now turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
Ano iho nei, ua hoohuliia oukou, a ua hana pono kela kanaka keia kanaka imua ou i ke kukala ana aku i ka hookuu wale ia o kona hoalauna: a ua hana hoi oukou i berita imua o'u ma ka hale i heaia ko'u inoa maluna ona:
16 But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom ye had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.
Aka, ua huli oukou, a ua hoohaumia i ko'u inoa, a ua hoihoi mai kela kanaka keia kanaka i kaua kauwakane, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwawahine a lakou i kuu wale ai ma ko lakou makemake, a ua hookauwa hou ia lakou, i lilo lakou i kauwakane a i kauwawahine na oukou.
17 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aole oukou i hoolohe mai ia'u ma ke kukala ana i ke kuu wale ia o kela kanaka no kona hoahanau, o kela kanaka no kona hoalauna. Aia hoi, ke kukala aku nei au i ke kuu wale ia oukou i ka pahikaua, a i ka mai ahulau, a i ka wi, a e hooauhee aku au ia oukou iloko o na aupuni a pau o ka honua.
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, which have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, when they cut the calf in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
A e haawi no wau i na kanaka i lawehala i ka'u berita, o ka poe i hana ole ma na olelo o ka berita a lakou i hana'i imua o'u, ia lakou i oki ae i ke keikihipa mawaena, a hele ae mawaena o kona mau apana.
19 The princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, which passed between the parts of the calf;
O na'lii o ka Iuda a me na'lii o Ierusalema, na luna a me na kahuna, a me na kanaka a pau o ka aina, ka poe i hele mawaena o na apana o ke keikibipi;
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat unto the fowls of the heaven, and to the beasts of the earth.
E haawi no wau ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe e imi ana i ko lakou ola. A e lilo no ko lakou kupapau i mea ai na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua.
21 And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army, which are gone up from you.
A e haawi no hoi au ia Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, a me kana poe alii i ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, iloko o ka lima o ka poe e imi ana i ko lakou ola, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe kaua o ke alii o Babulona, ka poe i pii aku, mai o oukou aku nei.
22 Behold, I will command, saith the Lord, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without an inhabitant.
Na'u no e kauoha aku, wahi a Iehova, a e hoihoi mai ia lakou i keia kulanakauhale; a e kaua mai lakou ia wahi, a e hoopio, a e puhi ia wahi i ke ahi. A e hoolilo wau i na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda i mehameha, aohe mea e noho ana.
