Jeremiah 50
1 The word that YHWH has spoken concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Chaldeans, by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet:
KA olelo a Iehova i olelo ai no Babulona, a no ka aina o ko Kaledea, ma o Ieremia la, ke kaula.
2 “Declare among nations, and sound, And lift up an ensign, sound, do not hide, Say, Babylon has been captured, Bel has been put to shame, Merodach has been broken, Her grievous things have been put to shame, Her idols have been broken.
E hai aku oukou iwaena o na lahuikanaka, A kala aku hoi, e kau i ka hae; E kala aku, mai huna, e i aku hoi, Ua hoopioia o Babulona, ua hoohilahilaia o Bela, Ua uhaiia o Merodaka, ua hoohilahilaia kona mau akua wahahee, Ua ubaiia kona mau kii.
3 For a nation from the north has come up against her, It makes her land become a desolation, And there is not an inhabitant in it. From man even to beast, They have moved, they have gone.
No ka mea, ke pii mai nei ka lahuikanaka, mai ka akau mai, e ku e ia ia, Nana no e hoolilo i ka aina i wahi alaneo, Aole noho kekahi mea malaila; Mai ke kanaka a i ka holoholona, e neenee, a e hele aku no.
4 In those days, and at that time,” A declaration of YHWH, “Sons of Israel come in, They and sons of Judah together, Going on and weeping they go, And they seek their God YHWH.
Ia mau la, a i kela manawa, wahi a Iehova, E hele mai no na mamo a Iseraela, O lakou a me na mamo a Iuda pu, E hele no lakou, a e uwe iho i ko lakou hele ana; A e imi ia Iehova i ko lakou Akua.
5 They ask the way [to] Zion, Their faces [are] toward that place: Come in, and we are joined to YHWH, A perpetual covenant—never forgotten.
E ninau no lakou i ke ala e hiki aku ai i Ziona, Me na maka o lakou e huli ana ilaila, i ka i ana iho, Ea, e hoopili kakou ia kakou iho ia Iehova Ma ka berita mau loa nalowale ole i ka poina.
6 My people have been a perishing flock, Their shepherds have caused them to err, Causing them to go back [on] the mountains, They have gone from mountain to hill, They have forgotten their crouching-place.
O ko'u poe kanaka, he poe hipa nalowale lakou; Na ko lakou mau kahu i alakai hewa ia lakou, Ua kuu wale aku na kahu ia lakou ma na mauna; Ua hele lakou, mai kekahi puu, a i kekahi puu, Ua poina ia lakou ko lakou wahi e hoomaha'i.
7 All finding them have devoured them, And their adversaries have said: We are not guilty, Because that they sinned against YHWH, The habitation of righteousness, And the hope of their fathers—YHWH.
O na mea a pau i halawai me lakou, Ua ai no ia poe ia lakou; Olelo ae la ko lakou poe enemi, Aole makou e hewa, No ka mea, ua lawe hala lakou ia Iehova, I kahi i noho ai o ka hoopono, Ia Iehova hoi, i ka Mea i lana ai ka manao o ko lakou poe makua.
8 Move from the midst of Babylon, And go out from the land of the Chaldeans; And be as male goats before a flock.
E puka aku oukou mai waena aku o Babulona, A e hele aku hoi mawaho o ka aina o ko Kaledea, E like hoi oukou me na kao kane imua o ka poe kao.
9 For behold, I am stirring up, And am causing to come up against Babylon, An assembly of great nations from [the] land of the north, And they have set in array against her, From there she is captured, Its arrow—as a skillful hero—does not return empty,
No ka mea, aia hoi, e hoala no wau, a e alakai ku e ia Babulona I na lahuikanaka nui, mai ka aina ma ka akau mai; A e hoonohonoho lakou ia lakou iho e kaua ia ia, Alaila, e lawe pio ia oia; E like auanei ko lakou mau pua me ko ke kanaka ikaika, Aole e hoihoi nele a make hewa ia mai.
10 And Chaldea has been for a spoil, All her spoilers are satisfied,” A declaration of YHWH.
A e lilo o Kaledea i waiwai pio: E ana auanei ka poe lawe pio i kana, wahi a Iehova.
11 “Because you rejoice, because you exult, O spoilers of My inheritance, Because you increase as a heifer [at] the tender grass, And cry aloud as bulls,
No ka mea, lealea no oukou, no ka mea hoi, hauoli oukou, E ka poe hao wale i ko'u hooilina; No ka mea, ua lelele olioli oukou, me he bipi wahine ai i ka mauu, A ua uhuuhu oukou e like me na lio kane.
12 Your mother has been greatly ashamed, She who bore you has been confounded, Behold, the last of nations [is] a wilderness, A dry land, and a desert.
E hoohilahilaia auanei kou makuwahine; E hoopalaimaka ka mea nana oe i hanau: Aia hoi, e lilo no ka welelau o na aina i waonahele, I aina maloo hoi, a i auakua.
13 Because of the wrath of YHWH it is not inhabited, And it has been a desolation—all of it. Everyone passing by at Babylon is astonished, And hisses because of all her plagues.
No ka huhu o Iehova, aole ia e nohoia, Aka, e alaneo loa auanei oia; E kahaha ka naau o ka poe a pau e maalo ae i Babulona, E hoowahawaha lakou no kona mau ino a pau.
14 Set yourselves in array against Babylon all around, All you treading a bow, Shoot at her, have no pity on the arrow, For she has sinned against YHWH.
E hoonohonoho oukou ia oukou iho e kaua ia Babulona a puni: E ka poe a pau, e lena i ke kakaka, E pana aku ia ia, mai aua i na pua; No ka mea, ua lawehala oia ia Iehova.
15 Shout against her all around, She has given forth her hand, Her foundations have fallen, Her walls have been thrown down, For it [is] the vengeance of YHWH, Be avenged of her, as she did—do to her.
E hooho ku e ia ia a puni, ua haawi oia i ka lima; Ua hiolo kona mau kia, ua wawahiia kona mau pa; No ka mea, o ka ukiuki no ia o Iehova: E hoopai oukou ia ia, Me kana i hana'i, pela oukou e hana aku ai ia ia.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, And him handling the sickle in the time of harvest, Because of the oppressing sword, Each to his people—they turn, And each to his land—they flee.
E hooki aku i ka mea luluhua, mai Babulona aku, A me ka mea lawelawe i ka pahi oki palaoa i ka manawa hoiliili ai. E huli no ke kanaka i kona poe iho, mai ka maka aku o ka pahikaua luku, A e holo no ke kanaka i kona aina iho.
17 Israel [is as] a scattered sheep, Lions have driven [him] away, At first, the king of Asshur devoured him, And now, at last, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has broken his bone.
He poe hipa puehu o ka Iseraela, Ua kipaku na liona ia ia; O ke alii o Asuria ka i ai mua ia ia; A mahope na keia Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona i uhai i kona mau iwi.
18 Therefore, thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am seeing after the king of Babylon, And after his land, As I have seen after the king of Asshur;
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; Aia hoi, e hoopai no wau i ke alii o Babulona, a me kona aina, Me ka'u i hoopai ai i ke alii o Asuria.
19 And I have brought Israel back to his habitation, And he has fed on Carmel and on Bashan; And his soul is satisfied on Mount Ephraim and on Gilead.
A e lawe hou mai no wau i ka Iseraela i kona wahi e noho ai, A e ai no ia maluna o Karemela, a me Basana, A e aua no kona naau maluna o ka mauna o Eperaima, a me Gileada.
20 In those days, and at that time,” A declaration of YHWH, “The iniquity of Israel is sought, and it is not, And the sin of Judah, and it is not found, For I am propitious to those whom I leave!
A ia mau la, a i kela manawa, wahi a Iehova, E imi wale ia ka hewa o ka Iseraela, aohe hewa, A me na hala o ka Iuda, aole ia e loaa; No ka mea, e kala aku au i ko ka poe a'u e hookoe ai.
21 Against the land of Merathaim, go up against it, And to the inhabitants of Pekod, Dry up and devote their posterity,” A declaration of YHWH, “And do according to all that I have commanded you.
E pii aku oe e ku e i ka aina o Merataima; E ku e ia wahi, a e ku e i ka poe e noho la ma Pekoda; E luku aku, a e hooki loa iho mahope o lakou, wahi a Iehova, E hana hoi e like me na mea a pau a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe.
22 A noise of battle [is] in the land, And of great destruction.
He walaau no ke kaua ma ka aina, a he luku nui hoi.
23 How it has been cut and broken, The hammer of the whole earth! How Babylon has been for a desolation among nations!
Nani ka wawahiia a nahaha o ka hamare o ka honua a pau! Nani hoi ka lilo ana o Babulona i wahi alaneo iwaena o na aina!
24 I have laid a snare for you, And you are also captured, O Babylon, And you have known, You have been found, and are also caught, For you have stirred yourself up against YHWH.
Ua hoopahele au ia oe, a ua paa hoi oe, E Babulona, a ike ole nae oe: Ua loaa no oe, a ua paa hoi, No ka mea, ua hooikaika oe ma ke ku e ia Iehova.
25 YHWH has opened His treasury, And He brings out the weapons of His indignation, For a work [is] to Lord YHWH of Hosts, In the land of the Chaldeans.
Ua wehe o Iehova i kona waihona mea kaua, A ua lawe mai iwaho i na mea kaua o kona ukiuki; No ka mea, o ka hana no keia a ka Haku, a Iehova o na kaua, ma ka aina o ko Kaledea.
26 Come in to her from the extremity, Open her storehouses, Raise her up as heaps, and devote her, Let her have no remnant.
E hele ku e mai oukou ia ia, mai kela kihi mai, E wehe i kona mau halepapa; E hoouka ae ia ia e like me na puu, E anai loa aku ia ia, mai hookoe i kekahi mea.
27 Slay all her cows, they go down to slaughter, Woe [is] on them, for their day has come, The time of their inspection.
E luku aku i kona mau bipi a pau, E kuu ia lakou e iho ilalo i ka lukuia: Auwe hoi lakou! no ka mea, ua hiki mai ko lakou la, Ka manawa hoi o ko lakou hoopaiia.
28 A voice of fugitives and escaped ones [Is] from the land of Babylon, To declare in Zion the vengeance of our God YHWH, The vengeance of His temple.
Ka leo o ka poe holo a pakeie mawaho o ka aina o Babulona, E hai aku ma Ziona i ka hoopai ana o Iehova, o ko kakou Akua, I ka hoopai ana no kona luakini.
29 Summon archers to Babylon, all treading the bow, Encamp against her all around, Let [her] have no escape; Repay to her according to her work, According to all that she did—do to her, For she has been proud against YHWH, Against the Holy One of Israel.
E kena i ka poe pana e ku e ia Babulona; E ka poe a pau e lena ai ke kakaka, E hoomoana ku e ia ia a puni, Mai hoopakele i kekahi mea olaila; E uku aku ia ia e like me kana hana ana; E like me na mea a pau ana i hana'i, Pela e hana aku ai ia ia: No ka mea, ua hookiekie oia e ku e ia Iehova, E ku e hoi i ka Mea hemolele o ka Iseraela.
30 Therefore her young men fall in her broad places, And all her men of war are cut off in that day,” A declaration of YHWH.
Nolaila, e haule ai kona poe kanaka opiopio ma na alanui, A i kela la, e anaiia kona poe kanaka kaua a pau, Wahi a Iehova.
31 “Behold, I [am] against you, O pride,” A declaration of Lord YHWH of Hosts, “For your day has come, the time of your inspection.
Aia hoi, Owau no ka i ku e ia oe, e ka mea hookiekie loa, Wahi a ka Haku, Iehova o na kaua: No ka mea, ua hiki mai kou la, O ka manawa hoi a'u e hoopai aku ai ia oe.
32 And pride has stumbled, And he has fallen, and has none raising up, And I have kindled a fire in his cities, And it has devoured all around him.
E okupe no ka poe hookiekie loa, a e hina hoi, Aohe mea nana e hoala ia ia: E hoaa no wau i ke ahi ma kona mau kulanakauhale, A e hoopau no ia i na mea a pau a puni ona.
33 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: The sons of Israel are oppressed, And the sons of Judah together, And all their captors have kept hold on them, They have refused to send them away.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; Ua hookaumaha pu ia na mamo a Iseraela, a me na mamo a Iuda; O ka poe a pau i lawe pio ia lakou, Hoopaa loa no ia poe ia lakou; Hoole hoi lakou, aole e hookuu i ko'u poe kanaka,
34 Their Redeemer [is] strong, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name, He thoroughly pleads their cause, So as to cause the land to rest, And He has given trouble to the inhabitants of Babylon.
Ua ikaika no ko lakou Kalahaia, o Iehova o na kaua kona inoa; Ia lakou e hoopiiia nana lakou e hooponopono io, I mea e hoomaha'i oia i ka aina, A e hoopihoihoi ai i ka poe e noho la ma Babulona.
35 A sword [is] for the Chaldeans,” A declaration of YHWH, “And it [is] on the inhabitants of Babylon, And on her heads, and on her wise men;
He pahikaua no, aia maluna o ko Kaledea, wahi a Iehova, A maluna hoi o ka poe e noho la ma Babulona, A maluna o kona poe alii, a maluna o kona poe akamai.
36 A sword [is] on the princes, And they have become foolish; A sword [is] on her mighty ones, And they have been broken down;
He pahikaua, aia maluna o ka poe wahahee, A e lapuwale auanei lakou: He pahikaua, aia maluna o kona poe kanaka ikaika, A e makau auanei lakou.
37 A sword [is] on his horses and on his chariot, And on all the rabble who [are] in her midst, And they have become women; A sword [is] on her treasuries, And they have been spoiled;
He pahikaua, aia maluna o na lio o lakou, A maluna hoi o ko lakou mau kaakaua, A maluna o na malihini mawaenakonu ona; A e like auanei lakou me na wahine. He pahikaua, aia maluna o ko lakou waihona waiwai, A e haoia lakou.
38 A sword [is] on her waters, and they have been dried up, For it [is] a land of carved images, And they boast themselves in idols.
Ua pio no kona wai, a e maloo loa auanei ia: No ka mea, he aina kii kalaiia no ia, A ua pupule lakou mamuli o ko lakou akua wahahee.
39 Therefore desert-dwellers dwell with howlers, Indeed, daughters of the ostrich have dwelt in her, And it is not inhabited anymore forever, Nor dwelt in from generation to generation.
No ia mea, e noho no na holoholona hihiu o ka waonahele malaila, A me na holoholona hihiu o na mokupuni, A e noho hoi na pueo maloko olaila; E kanaka ole auanei ia aina, a i ka manawa pau ole; E noho ole ia hoi ia, a ia hanauna aku, ia hanauna aku.
40 As the overthrow by God of Sodom, And of Gomorrah, and of its neighbors,” A declaration of YHWH, “None dwell there, Nor does a son of man sojourn in her.
Me ka ke Akua i hoohiolo ai ia Sodoma a me Gomora, A me kona mau wahi e kokoke mai ana, wahi a Iehova; Pela no, aole e noho kekahi kanaka malaila, Aole e hoomoana ke keiki a ke kanaka maloko o ia wahi.
41 Behold, a people has come from the north, Even a great nation, And many kings are stirred up from the sides of the earth.
Aia hoi, o hele mai no kekahi lahuikanaka mai ke kukulu akau mai, A o hoalaia ka lahuikanaka nui, a me na'lii he lehulehu, Mai na mokuna mai o ka honua.
42 They seize bow and javelin, They [are] cruel, and they have no mercy, Their voice sounds as a sea, and they ride on horses, Set in array as a man for battle, Against you, O daughter of Babylon.
E paa no ia lakou ke kakaka a me ka ihe; Ua lokoino lakou, aole lakou e lokomaikai mai; E halulu no ko lakou leo, e like me ke kai, E holo no lakou maluna o na lio i hoonohonohoia, E like me kanaka no ke kaua, E ku e ia oe, e ke kaikamahine o Babulona.
43 The king of Babylon has heard their report, And his hands have been feeble, Distress has seized him; pain as a travailing woman.
Ua lohe ke alii o Babulona i ka lono no lakou, A ua nawaliwali kona mau lima: Loohia no oia i ka pilikia, a me ka nahu kuakoko, Me ko ka wahine hanau keiki la.
44 Behold, he comes up as a lion, Because of the rising of the Jordan, To the enduring habitation, But I cause to rest, I cause them to run from off her. And who is chosen? I lay a charge on her, For who [is] like Me? And who convenes Me? And who [is] this shepherd who stands before Me?
Aia hoi, e pii mai no ia e like me ka liona mai ka nani o Ioredane mai, A iloko o kahi noho o ka mea ikaika: Aka, i ka amo ana o ka maka, e holo aku no lakou mai laila aku, Owai ka mea i waeia, e hoonoho wau ia ia maluna ona? Owai ka mea like me au nei? Owai hoi ka mea e halawai me au? A owai ke kahuhipa e hiki ia ia ke ku imua o'u?
45 Therefore, hear the counsel of YHWH, That He counseled concerning Babylon, And His plans that He has devised Concerning the land of the Chaldeans; Do little ones of the flock not drag them out, Does He not make the habitation desolate over them?
No ia mea, e hoolohe oukou i ka manao o Iehova, Ana i manao ai ia Babulona; A me kona noonoo ana i noonoo ai i ka aina o ko Kaledea: Oiaio no, e uhuki oia ia lakou me na mea liilii o ka ohana, Oiaio no, e hooneoneo no oia i ko lakou wahi noho a puni lakou.
46 From the sound of Babylon having been captured, The earth has been shaken, And a cry has been heard among nations!”
Naueue no ka honua i ka halulu no ke pio ana o Babulona, Ua lohea kona uwe ana ma na aina e.
