Jeremiah 51
1 Thus says the LORD: "Look, I will raise up against Babylon, and against those who dwell in Lebkamai, a destroying wind.
KE i mai nei o Iehova, penei; Aia hoi, e hoala no wau i ka makani luku e ku e ia Babulona, E ku e hoi i ka poe e noho la iwaenakonu, Ka poe i ala ku e mai ia'u.
2 I will send to Babylon foreigners who shall winnow her; and they shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her around.
E hoouna aku au i na malihini i Babulona, A e hoopuehu lakou i kona, a e ninini aku i ko kona aina; No ka mea, e ku e no lakou ia ia a puni i ka la poino.
3 Do not let him who bends the bow bend it; nor not let him rise up in his armor. And do not spare her young men; utterly destroy all her army.
E lena ke kakaka o ka mea pana, E ku e i ka mea i hoolena i kona; E ku e i ka mea hookiekie maloko o kona paleumaumaunahi; Mai hookoe i kona poe kanaka opiopio, E luku loa aku i kona mau kaua a pau.
4 They shall fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and thrust through in her streets.
E hina no ka poe make ma ka aina o ko Kaledea, A e houia ma kona mau alanui.
5 "For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, of his God, of the LORD of hosts; though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
No ka mea, ua haalele ole ia ka Iseraela, A o ka Iuda hoi e kona Akua e Iehova o na kaua; Ua piha nae ko lakou aina i ka lawehala imua o ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life; do not be cut off in her iniquity: for it is the time of the LORD's vengeance; he will render to her a recompense.
E holo oukou mai waenakonu aku o Babulona, E hoopakele kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona ola iho: Mai noho oukou a lukuia iloko o kona hewa, No ka mea, o ka manawa keia o ko Iehova ukiuki; Nana no e hoouku aku ia ia
7 Babylon has been a golden cup in the LORD's hand, who made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
He wahi kiaha gula o Babulona ma ka lima o Iehova, O ka mea ia i ona'i ka honua a pau: Ua inu ko na aina i kona waina, Nolaila i pupule ai ko na aina.
8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: wail for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
Ua haule hoohikilele o Babulona, a ua anaiia; E aoa nona, e kii hoi i wahi nini no kona eha, Ina paha e hoolaia oia.
9 'We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go everyone into his own country; for her judgment reaches to heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.'
Hoola aku no makou ia Babulona, aole ia i ola: E haalele ia ia, e hele hoi kela mea keia mea o kakou i kona aina iho; No ka mea, ua pa aku kona hoopaiia i ka lani, Ua hapaiia hoi, a i na aouli.
10 'The LORD has brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.'
Ua hoopuka mai o Iehova i ko kakou pono; E hele mai hoi, e hai aku kakou ma Ziona i ka hana a Iehova ko kakou Akua.
11 Make sharp the arrows; hold firm the shields: the LORD has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it: for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
E anai i na pua, e lalau i na palekaua; Ua hooikaika o Iehova i ka manao o na'lii o Media: No ka mea, he manao ku e kona ia Babulona e luku ia wahi; No ka mea, o ka hoopai ana ia o Iehova, O kana hoopai ana hoi, no kona luakini.
12 Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set the watchmen, prepare the ambushes; for the LORD has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
E kau i ka hae ma na pa o Babulona, E hoomahuahua i ka poe kaua, E hoonohonoho i na kiai, E hoomakaukau i ka poe hoohalua; No ka mea, ua noonoo o Iehova, a ua hana hoi i na mea ana i olelo ku e ai i ka poe e noho la ma Babulona.
13 You who dwell on many waters, abundant in treasures, your end has come, the measure of your covetousness.
E ka mea e noho la ma na wai nui, Ka mea waiwai nui hoi, Ua hiki mai kou hope, a me ke ana o kou hao ana.
14 The LORD of hosts has sworn by himself, saying, "Surely I will fill you with men, as with the canker worm; and they shall lift up a shout against you."
Ua hoohiki o Iehova o na kaua ia ia iho, Oiaio, e hoopiha no wau ia oe i na kanaka e like me na enuhe, A e hookiekie lakou i ka hooho ku e ia oe.
15 He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens.
Ua hana oia i ka honua i kona mana, Ua hookumu oia i ke ao nei i kona akamai, A ua uhola'i i na lani i kona ike.
16 When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the farthest parts of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries.
I ka poha ana o kona leo, Nui na wai ma na lani; Oia ka mea e pii aku ai ka ohu, mai na kihi ae o ka honua: Nana no i hana ka uwila, me ka ua, A hoopuka mai la oia i ka makaui, Mailoko mai o kona waihona waiwai.
17 Every man has become brutish without knowledge. Every goldsmith is disappointed by his image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
Me he holoholona la na kanaka a pau ma ka ike, Ua hoohilahilaia na mea hoohehee kala a pau, ma na kii i hooheheeia; No ka mea, he wahahee kona kii hooheheeia, Aohe hanu iloko o lakou.
18 They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
He lapuwale lakou, he hana na ka wahahee; I ko lakou wa e hoopaiia mai ai, e make no lakou.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the LORD of hosts is his name.
Aole i like ka Puu o Iakoba me lakou, No ka mea, nana no i hana na mea a pau; O ka Iseraela ke kookoo o kona hooilina; O Iehova o na kaua kona inoa.
20 "You are my battle axe and weapons of war: and with you will I break in pieces the nations; and with you will I destroy kingdoms;
He hamare no oe no'u, A me ko'u mau mea kaua e kaua'i: No ka mea, ia oe no wau e wawahi ai i na aina, A ia oe no hoi e luku aku ai au i na aupuni;
21 and with you will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with you will I break in pieces the chariot and its rider.
Ia oe no wau e uhai i ka lio, A me kona mea nana e holo; Ia oe no wau e uhai ai i ke kaakaua, A me kona mea nana e holo;
22 And with you will I break in pieces man and woman; and with you will I break in pieces the old man and the youth; and with you will I break in pieces the young man and the virgin;
Ia oe no wau e uhai ai i ke kane a me ka wahine; Ia oe no hoi au e uhai ai i ka elemakule a me ka mea opiopio; A ia oe no e uhai ai au i ke kanaka opiopio, a me ke kaikamahine:
23 and with you will I break in pieces the shepherd and his flock; and with you will I break in pieces the farmer and his yoke; and with you will I break in pieces governors and deputies.
Ia oe no e uhai aku ai au i ke kahuhipa, a me kona ohana; Ia oe no wau e uhai aku ai i ke kauaka mahiai, A me kona mau bipi kauo; A ia oe no wau e uhai aku ai i na kiaaina, A me ko lakou poe alii.
24 I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight," says the LORD.
A maluna o Babulona, a maluna o ka poe e noho la ma Kaledea, E hoihoi no wau i ka hewa a pau a lakou i hana'i, Ma Ziona, imua o kou mau maka, wahi a Iehova.
25 "Look, I am against you, destroying mountain," says the LORD, "which destroys all the earth; and I will stretch out my hand on you, and roll you down from the rocks, and will make you a burnt mountain.
Aia hoi, owau ka i ku e ia oe, e ka mauna hoomake, Wahi a Iehova; Ka mea i anai i ka honua a pau: A e kakauha aku au i ko'u lima maluna ou, A e olokaa aku au ia oe ilalo, mai na pohaku aku, A e hoolilo au ia oe i mauna a.
26 They shall not take of you a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but you shall be desolate for ever," says the LORD.
Aole hoi lakou e lawe i kekahi pohaku ou i pohaku kihi, Aole hoi i pohaku hookumu: Aka, e neoneo mau loa aku no oe, wahi a Iehova.
27 Set up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz: appoint a marshal against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough canker worm.
E kau oukou i ka hae ma ka aina, E puhi i ka pu iwaena o ko na aina, E hoomakaukau i ko na aina, e ku e ia ia; E kena i na aupuni o Arerata e ku e ia ia, Ia Mini, a me Asekenaza; E hoonoho i alihi kaua e ku e ia ia; E hoouna i na lio e like me na enuhe huluhulu.
28 Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, its governors, and all its deputies, and all the land of their dominion.
E hoomakaukau ku e ia ia i ko na aina a me ua'lii o ko Media, I kona poe kiaaina hoi a me kona mau luna, A me ka aina a pau o kona aupuni.
29 The land trembles and is in pain; for the purposes of the LORD against Babylon do stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
E haalulu no ka aina, a e mihi hoi; No ka mea, e hanaia maluna o Babulona na manao a pau o Iehova, E hoolilo i ka aina o Babulona i wahi neoneo, Me ka mea ole nana e noho.
30 The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they remain in their strongholds; their might has failed; they are become as women: her dwelling places are set on fire; her bars are broken.
Ua haalele na kanaka ikaika o Babulona i ke kaua, Ua noho lakou ma na puu kaua; Ua pio hoi ko lakou ikaika, Ua like no hoi lakou me na wahine; Ua hoopau lakou i ko lakou wahi noho i ke ahi, Ua uhaiia kona mau kikaola.
31 One runner will run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter:
E holo auanei kekahi luna e halawai me ka kekahi luna, A me kekahi elele e halawai me kekahi elele, E hai aku i ke alii i ke pio ana o ke kulanakauhale ma kekahi pea:
32 and the passages are seized, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are frightened.
I ka lilo ana o na alanui kiaiia, A ua hoopau no lakou i na ohe i ke ahi, Ua auhee hoi na kanaka kaua.
33 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor at the time when it is trodden; yet a little while, and the time of harvest shall come for her.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; Ua like ke kaikamahine o Babulona me kahi hahi palaoa, Ua hiki mai ka manawa e hahi ai ia ia; He manawa iki e koe, a hiki mai kona hoiliili ai ana.
34 'Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me, he has crushed me, he has made me an empty vessel, he has, like a monster, swallowed me up, he has filled his maw with my delicacies; he has cast me out.
Ua ai mai o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona ia'u, A ua hooki loa mai ia'u, Ua hoolilo mai oia ia'u i ipu mea ole iloko, Ua moni mai oia ia'u, e like me ka moonui, Ua hoopiha oia i kona opu i ka'u mea maikai, Ua kipaku mai oia ia'u.
35 The violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon,' shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and, 'My blood be on the inhabitants of Chaldea,' shall Jerusalem say.
Maluna hoi o Babulona, ka hookaumahaia o'u a me ko'u kino, Wahi a ka mea e noho la ma Ziona; A o ko'u koko hoi maluna o ka poe e noho la ma Kaledea, Wahi a Ierusalema.
36 Therefore thus says the LORD: "Look, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you; and I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry.
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aia hoi, na'u no e hooponopono i kou hoopiiia, Na'u hoi e hoopai aku nou; A e hoomaloo no wau i kona moana, A e hoopio no hoi au i kona waipuna.
37 Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
A e lilo o Babulona i mau puu, He wahi noho no na iliohihiu, He mea e kahaha ai, a e hoowahawaha ai hoi, Me ka mea ole nana e noho.
38 They shall roar together like young lions; they shall growl as lions' cubs.
E uwo pu no lakou e like me na liona, A e hoonui hoi i ko lakou leo e like me na keiki liona.
39 When they are heated, I will make their feast, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake," says the LORD.
Ia lakou e wela'i, e hana no wau i ko lakou ahainu, A e hooona aku wau ia lakou, i mea e lealea ai lakou, A e moe no lakou i ka hiamoe mau loa, Aole lakou e ala hou, wahi a Iehova.
40 "I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats.
E hooiho aku au ia lakou e like me na keikihipa i ka make, E like hoi me na hipa kane, a me na kaokane.
41 How is Sheshach taken, and the praise of the whole earth seized. How is Babylon become a desolation among the nations.
Nani ka hopuia o Sesaka! A ua hoopioia hoi ka mea nani o ka honua a pau! Nani ka lilo ana o Babulona i mea kupaianaha iwaena o na aina!
42 The sea has come up on Babylon; she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
Ua pii mai ke kai maluna o Babulona; Ua uhiia oia i ka nui o kona mau ale.
43 Her cities are become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells, neither does any son of man pass thereby.
Ua lilo kona mau kulanakauhale i wahi neoneo, He aina maloo hoi, a he waonahele, He aina noho ole ia e kekahi kanaka, Aole hoi e hele ae ke keiki a ke kanaka ilaila.
44 I will execute judgment on Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up; and the nations shall not flow any more to him: yes, the wall of Babylon shall fall."
Na'u no e hoopai aku ia Bela ma Babulona, A e hoopuka aku no hoi au iwaho o kona waha, I ka mea ana i moni ai; Aole e akoakoa hou mai na lahuikanaka io na la; Oia, e hiolo ana ka pa o Babulona.
45 "My people, go away from the midst of her, and save yourselves every man from the fierce anger of the LORD.
E ko'u poe kanaka, e hele oukou maiwaena aku ona, A e hoopakele kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona ola iho, Mai ka ukiuki nui o Iehova;
46 Do not let your heart faint, neither fear for the news that shall be heard in the land; for news shall come one year, and after that in another year shall come news, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
O maule auanei ko oukou naau, a makau hoi oukou, no ka lono e loheia ana ma ia aina; E hiki mai no ka lono i kekahi makahiki, A he lono hou i kekahi makahiki, He haunaele ma ka aina, O kekahi alii e ku e ana i kekahi alii.
47 Therefore look, the days come, that I will execute judgment on the engraved images of Babylon; and her whole land shall be confounded; and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, E hoopai aku ai au i na kii kalaiia o Babulona; A e hoohilahilaia kona aina a pau, A e haule hoi iwaenakonu ona, kona poe a pau i houia.
48 Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is in them, shall sing for joy over Babylon; for the destroyers shall come to her from the north," says the LORD.
Alaila e hookani olioli ai ka lani, a me ka honua, a me na mea a pau oloko, no Babulona; No ka mea, mai ke kukulu akau mai e hele mai ai io na la ka poe hao wale, wahi a Iehova.
49 As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the land.
Me Babulona i hoohina'i i ka poe i houia o ka Iseraela, Pela no ma Babulona e hina'i ka poe i houia o ka honua a pau.
50 You who have escaped the sword, go, do not stand still; remember the LORD from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
E hele oukou, e ka poe i pakele i ka pahikaua, Mai ku malie; e hoomanao ia Iehova ma kahi loihi aku, E hoomanao hoi ia Ierusalema iloko o ko oukou naau.
51 "We are confounded, because we have heard reproach; confusion has covered our faces: for strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the LORD's house."
Ua hoohilahilaia makou, no ka mea, ua lohe makou i ka hoowahawaha: Ua uhiia ko makou maka i ka hilahila; No ka mea, ua hiki mai na malihini iloko o na keenakapu o ka hale o Iehova.
52 "Therefore look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will execute judgment on her engraved images; and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
No ia mea, aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la, wahi a Iehova, E hoopai aku ai au i kona mau kii kalaiia; A ma kona aina a puni e kaniuhu ai no ka poe i oia.
53 Though Babylon should mount up to the sky, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall destroyers come to her," says the LORD.
Ina paha i pii aku o Babulona a i ka lani, A ina i hoopaa loa oia i na puu kaua o kona ikaika, E hele aku nae ka poe hao wale, mai o'u aku nei a io na la, wahi a Iehova.
54 "The sound of a cry from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans."
Mai Babulona mai, kui mai ka lono no ka uwe ana, A me ka luku nui ia, mai ka aina o ko Kaledea mai.
55 For the LORD lays Babylon waste, and destroys out of her the great voice; and their waves roar like many waters; the noise of their voice is uttered:
No ka mea, ua hao wale o Iehova ia Babulona, A ua hooki hoi i ka walaau nui mai ona aku; A halulu kona mau ale e like me na wai nui, Kani no ka leo o kona walaau.
56 for the destroyer has come on her, even on Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, their bows are broken in pieces; for the LORD is a God of recompenses, he will surely requite.
No ka mea, ua hele mai ka mea hao wale maluna ona, Maluna hoi o Babulona; Ua lawepioia kona poe kanaka ikaika, Ua hai hoi na kakaka a pau o lakou; No ka mea, o Iehova ke Akua hoopai, Oiaio no, e hoopai oia.
57 "I will make drunk her officials and her wise men, her governors and her deputies, and her mighty men; and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up," says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
A e hooona aku au i kona poe alii, a me kona poe akamai, I kona poe kiaaina, a me kona mau luna, a me kona poe kanaka ikaika: A e moe no lakou i ka hiamoe mau loa, Aole lakou e ala hou, wahi a ke alii, Nona ka inoa, o Iehova o na kaua.
58 Thus says the LORD of hosts: "The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly overthrown, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the peoples shall labor for vanity, and the nations for the fire; and they shall be weary."
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua; E oiaio no e hoohiolo loa ia na pa nui o Babulona, A e puhiia i ke ahi kona mau pukapa kiekie; E hooikaika na kanaka a make hewa ka luhi, A o na lahuikanaka hoi, no ke ahi, A e maloeloe lakou.
59 The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. Now Seraiah was chief quartermaster.
O ka olelo a Ieremia a ke kaula i kauoha'i ia Seraia, i keiki a Neria, i ke keiki a Maaseia, i ka manawa ana i hele pu aku ai i Babulona me Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i ka makahiki aha o kona noho alii ana. He luna noho malie o ua Seraia nei.
60 Jeremiah wrote in a scroll all the evil that should come on Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
A kakau no Ieremia iloko o ka buke i ka hewa a pau e hiki mai ana maluna o Babulona, i keia mau olelo a pau hoi i palapalaia no Babulona.
61 Jeremiah said to Seraiah, "When you come to Babylon, then see that you read all these words,
Olelo mai la o Ieremia ia Seraia, A hiki aku oe i Babulona, a ike, a heluhelu hoi i keia mau olelo a pau;
62 and say, 'LORD, you have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell in it, neither man nor animal, but that it shall be desolate forever.'
Alaila, e i aku oe, E Iehova, ua olelo ku e mai oe i keia wahi, e hooki iho, i mea e koe ole ai kekahi mea iloko ona, aohe kanaka, aohe holoholona, aka, e neoneo mau loa aku no.
63 It shall be, when you have made an end of reading this scroll, that you shall bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of the Perath:
A hiki i ka manawa e hoopau ai oe i ka heluhelu ana i keia buke, alaila e nakinaki i ka pohaku me ka buke, a e hoolei aku iwaenakonu o Euperate.
64 and you shall say, 'Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring on her; and they shall be weary.'" Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
A e i aku oe, Pela e poho ai o Babulona, aole o ala hou, mai ka hewa a'u e lawe ai maluna ona. A e maloeloe lakou. A ia nei na olelo a Ieremia.
