< Jeremiah 16 >

1 The word of Jehovah came also to me, saying,
HIKI mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
2 "You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, in this place.
Mai lawe oe i wahine nau, aole hoi e loaa ia oe na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ma keia wahi.
3 For thus says Jehovah concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father in this land:
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, no na keikikane, a no na kaikamahine i hanauia ma keia wahi, a no na makuwahine nana lakou i hanau, a no na makuakane nana lakou i ko ai ma keia aina.
4 They shall die grievous deaths: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the surface of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
E make mainoino lakou, aole lakou e kauikauia, aole hoi lakou e kanuia; aka, e lilo lakou i lepo maluna o ka aina; a e hoopauia no lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi; a e lilo ko lakou kupapau i mea ai na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua.
5 For thus says Jehovah, 'Do not enter into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says Jehovah, even loving kindness and tender mercies.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Mai komo maloko o ka hale kumakena, mai hele hoi e kanikau, a e uwe ia lakou; no ka mea, ua lawe aku au i ko'u malu, mai keia poe kanaka aku, wahi a Iehova, i ko'u aloha hoi, a me ko'u lokomaikai.
6 Both great and small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them;
E make no ka poe nui, a me ka poe uuku ma keia aina; aole lakou e kanuia, aole e kumakena na kanaka no lakou, aole e okioki ia lakou iho, aole hoi e koli i ke oho no lakou.
7 neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
Aole e puunaue na kanaka i ka ai na lakou no ke kumakena, i mea e hoomaha ai ia lakou no ka make; aole hoi e hoohainu aku na kanaka ia lakou i ke kiaha o ka hooluolu no kona makuakane, a no kona makuwahine.
8 You shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.
Mai komo aku hoi oe iloko o ka hale ahaaina, e noho pu me lakou, e ai, a e inu.
9 For thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Look, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua, o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, imua o ko oukou mau maka, a i ko oukou mau la hoi, e hooki aku au mai keia wahi aku, i ka leo o ka olioli, a i ka leo o ka hauoli, i ka leo o ke kaue mare, a i ka leo o ka wahine mare.
10 It shall happen, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall tell you, 'Why has Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against Jehovah our God?'
A hiki i ka manawa e hoike aku ai oe i keia poe kanaka i keia mau olelo a pau, a olelo mai lakou ia oe, No keaha la i kau oh a mai ai o Iehova i keia hewa nui maluna o makou? Heaha hoi ko makou hala; a heaha ka hewa a makou i hana aku ai ia Iehova, i ko makou Akua?
11 Then you shall tell them, 'Because your fathers have forsaken me, says Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
Alaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou, No ka mea, ua haalele ko oukou poe makua ia'u, wahi a Iehova, a ua hele lakou mnmuli o na akua e, a ua malama ia lakou, a ua hoomana ia lakou, a ua haalele mai ia'u, aole hoi i malama i ko'u kanawai:
12 and you have done evil more than your fathers; for, look, you walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you do not listen to me:
A ua oi aku ka oukou hana ino ana mamua o ka ko oukou poe makua; no ka mea, aia hoi, ke hele nei kela mea keia mea o oukou mamuli o ka paakiki o kona naau hewa, i hoolohe ole mai ai lakou ia'u.
13 therefore I will cast you forth out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; for I will show you no favor.'
Nolaila, e kipaku aku au ia oukou mai keia aina aku, a i ka aina a oukou i ike ole ai, aole oukou, aole hoi ko oukou poe makua; a malaila oukou e malama'i i na akua e, i ke ao a me ka po, ma kahi e haawi ole aku ai au ia oukou i ke alohaia.
14 Therefore look, the days come," says Jehovah, "that it shall no more be said, 'As Jehovah lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;'
Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, aole e olelo hou ia mai, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai:
15 but, 'As Jehovah lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them.' I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.
Aka, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o ke kukulu akau mai, a mai na aina a pau mai, kahi ana i kipaku aku ai ia lakou. A e lawe hou no wau ia lakou iloko o ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai i ko lakou poe kupuna.
16 Look, I will send for many fishermen," says Jehovah, "and they shall fish them up; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
Aia hoi, e kii aku no wau i na lawaia he nui, wahi a Iehova, a e loaa ia lakou na Iudaio ma ka lawaia ana; a mahope iho, e kii aku no wau i na mea imi a nui, a na lakou no e imi i na Iudaio, mai na mauna mai a pau, a mai na puu mai a pau, a mai na lua o na pohaku mai.
17 For my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.
No ka mea, e kau no ko'u mau maka ma ko lakou aoao a pau; aole lakou e hoonaloia i ko'u maka, aole hoi e hoonaloia ko lakou hewa, mai ko'u mau maka aku.
18 First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations."
A mamua, e hoopai papalua wau i ko lakou hewa, a me ko lakou hala; no ka mea, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u aina, a ua hoopiha i ko'u hooilina i na kii o ko lakou mea haumia, e hoopailua ai.
19 "Jehovah, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the farthest parts of the earth, and shall say, 'Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit.
E Iehova, ko'u ikaika, ko'u pakaua hoi, a me ko'u puuhonua i ka la o ka popilikia, e hele mai no ko na aina e i ou la, mai na kukulu o ka honua mai, a e olelo mai, He oiaio, ua ili mai no ka hoopunipuni i ko makou poe makua, a me ka lapuwale, a me na mea waiwai ole.
20 Shall a man make to himself gods, which yet are no gods?'"
E hana anei ke kanaka i na akua nona, aole hoi lakou na akua?
21 "Therefore look, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Jehovah.
Nolaila, aia hoi, i keia manawa, e hoike maopopo loa aku au i ko'u lima ia lakou, a me ko'u mana; a e ike auanei lakou, o Iehova no ko'u inoa.
