Jeremiah 13
1 Thus says Jehovah to me, "Go, and buy yourself a linen belt, and put it on your waist, and do not put it in water."
KE olelo mai nei o Iehova ia'u penei, O hele, a e lawe nou i kaei olona, a e hume ma kou puhaka, a mai waiho hoi ia iloko o ka wai.
2 So I bought a belt according to the word of Jehovah, and put it on my waist.
A lawe iho la au i ke kaei, e like me ka olelo a Iehova, a hume iho la au ma kuu puhaka.
3 The word of Jehovah came to me the second time, saying,
Hiki hou mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, o ka lua ia, i mai la,
4 "Take the belt that you have bought, which is on your waist, and arise, go to the Perath, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock."
E lawe oe i ke kaei i loaa ia oe, ka mea ma kou puhaka, a e ku iluna, a e hele i Euperate, a e huna ia mea malaila, ma ke ana o ka pohaku.
5 So I went, and hid it by the Perath, as Jehovah commanded me.
A hele aku la au, a huna iho la ia, ma Euperate, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia'u.
6 It happened after many days, that Jehovah said to me, "Arise, go to the Perath, and take the belt from there, which I commanded you to hide there."
A hala na la he nui, alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, E ku iluna, a e hele i Euperate, a e lawe mai i ke kaei a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oe e huna malaila.
7 Then I went to the Perath, and dug, and took the belt from the place where I had hidden it; and look, the belt was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
Alaila, hele aku la au i Euperate, a kohi iho la, a lawe ae la i ke kaei, mai kahi aku a'u i huna ai la mea; a aia hoi, ua ino ke kaei, he mea waiwai ole loa hoi.
8 Then the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
9 "Thus says Jehovah, 'In this way I will mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E like me keia e hoino aku ai au i ka manao kiekie o ka Iuda, a me ka manao kiekie loa o ko Ierusalema.
10 This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and are gone after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this belt, which is profitable for nothing.
O keia poe kanaka hewa, ka poe manao ole e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo, ka poe i hele ma ka paakiki o ko lakou naau, a hahai hoi mamuli e na akua e, e malama ia lakou, a e hoomana ia lakou, e like auanei lakou me keia kaei, ka mea waiwai ole loa.
11 For as the belt clings to the waist of a man, so have I caused to cling to me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah,' says Jehovah; 'that they might be my people, for a name, for praise, and for glory. But they would not listen.
No ka mea, e like me ke kaei i pili i ka puhaka o ke kanaka, pela i hoopili mai ai au i ko ka hale a pau o ka Iseraela, a me ko ka hale a pau o ka Iuda ia'u, wahi o Iehova; i lilo mai lakou i poe kanaka no'u, a i inoa hoi, a i mea e hoomaikaiia'i, a i nani hoi; aka, aole lakou i hoolohe.
12 Therefore you shall speak to them this word: 'Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, "Every jar shall be filled with wine."' And if they shall say to you, 'Do we not certainly know that every jar shall be filled with wine?'
Nolaila oe e olelo ai ia lakou i keia olelo; Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, E hoopihaia no na hue a pau i ka waina, a e olelo mai no lakou ia oe, Aole anei kakou e ike maopopo, e hoopihaia na hue a pau no i ka waiua?
13 Then you shall tell them, 'Thus says Jehovah, "Look, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings who sit on David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
A e olelo aku no oe ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, o ka poe a pau e noho la ma keia aina, o na'lii e noho ana ma ka noho alii o Davida, o na kahuna, a me na kaula, a me ka poe a pau e noho la ma Ierusalema, e hoopiha no wau ia lakou i ka ona.
14 I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, says Jehovah. I will not pity, nor spare, nor have compassion, that I should not destroy them."'"
A e ulupa no wau ia lakou, kekahi maluna o kekahi, o na makuakane, a me na keikikane pu, wahi a Iehova; aole hoi au e aloha aku, aole au e hookuu, aole au e lokomaikai aku, aka, e anai aku no wau ia lakou.
15 "Hear, and give ear; do not be proud; for Jehovah has spoken.
E hoolohe mai oukou, a e haliu mai hoi ka pepeiao: mai hookano, no ka mea, ua olelo no o Iehova.
16 Give glory to Jehovah your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and, while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it gross darkness.
E hoonani aku ia Iehova, i ko oukou Akua, mamua o kona hoopoeleele ana mai, a mamua hoi o ke kulanalana ana o ko oukou mau wawae ma na mauna pouli, a oiai oukou e kakali i ka malamalama, hoolilo oia ia i aka no ka make, a hana hoi i pouli loa.
17 But if you will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret for your pride; and my eye shall weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because Jehovah's flock is taken captive."
Aka, ina aole oukou e hoolohe ia, alaila, e uwe no kuu uhane no oukou ma na wahi malu, no ka hookano; a e uwe nui loa no ko'u mau maka, a kahe ka waimaka, no ka mea, ua lawepioia ka poe hipa a Iehova.
18 "Say to the king and to the queen mother, 'Take a lowly seat, for your glorious crowns have come down from your heads.
E i aku i ke alii kane a i ke alii wahine, E hoohaahaa ia olua iho, e noho ilalo; no ka mea, e hoohaahaaia no ko olua mau pookela, a me ka leialii o ko olua nani.
19 The cities toward the Negev are shut, and there is no one to open them: Judah is carried away into exile, all of it; it is wholly carried away into exile.'"
E paniia no na kulanakauhale o ke kukulu hema, aohe mea nana e wehe: e lawepioia o ka Iuda a pau, e lawepioia a lilo loa no.
20 "Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north: where is the flock that was given you, your beautiful flock?
E alawa'e i ko oukou mau maka iluna, a e nana i ka poe e hele ana, mai ke kukulu akau mai. Auhea ka poe hipa i haawiia nau, o ka poe hipa hoi o kou nani?
21 What will you say, when he shall set over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? Shall not sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?
Pehea la oe e olelo ai i ka wa e hoopai mai oia ia oe? Aole anei e loohia oe i ka eha e like me ka wahine hanau keiki, no ka mea, ua ao aku no oe ia lakou e noho kapena, a e noho alii maluna ou.
22 If you say in your heart, 'Why are these things come on me?' for the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts uncovered, and your heels suffer violence.
A ina olelo oe ma kou naau, No ke aha la i hiki mai ai keia mau mea maluna o'u? No ka nui loa o kou hewa i laweia'ku la na hua lole ou, ua waiho wale ia kou mau kuekue wawae.
23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
E hiki anei i ko Aitiopa ke hoano e i kona ili, a me ka leopadi i kona mau kiko? alaila oukou, ka poe maa i ka hana hewa, e hiki ai ke hana maikai.
24 'therefore I will scatter them, as the stubble that passes away, by the wind of the wilderness.
Nolaila, e hoopuehu aku au ia lakou, e like me ka opala i lilo aku la i ka makani o ka waoakua.
25 This is your lot, the portion measured to you from me,' says Jehovah; 'because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
Oia no kou mea loaa, o ka haawina nou i anaia e au, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, ua hoopoina mai oe ia'u, a ua hilinai hoi i ka mea wahahee.
26 therefore I will also uncover your skirts on your face, and your shame shall appear.
Nolaila au e wehe ae ai i ka hua lole ou iluna ma kou maka, i ikeia kou wahi hilahila.
27 I have seen your abominations, even your adulteries, and your neighing, the lewdness of your prostitution, on the hills in the field. Woe to you, Jerusalem. You will not be made clean; how long shall it yet be?'"
Ua ike no wau i kou moekolohe ana, a me kou hau ana, a me ka hewa o kou hookamakama, a me kau hana hoopailua maluna o na puu ma ke kula. Auwe oe, e Ierusalema! Aole anei oe e hoomaemaeia? Pehea la ka loihi?
