Jeremiah 21
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when king Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai i ka wa i hoouna aku ai o Zedekia, ke alii, io na la, ia Pasehura, ke keiki a Malekia, a me Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia, ke kahuna, i aku la,
2 "Please inquire of the LORD for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon makes war against us: perhaps the LORD will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us."
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e noi aku ia Iehova no kakou; no ka mea, ke kaua mai nei o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona ia kakou; ina paha e hana mai o Iehova ia kakou, e like me kana hana kupanaha a pau, i pii aku ke alii o Babulona, mai o kakou aku.
3 Then Jeremiah said to them, "You shall tell Zedekiah:
Alaila, olelo mai la o Ieremia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Zedekia;
4 'Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, "Look, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you, without the walls; and I will gather them into the midst of this city.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, Aia hoi, e hoihoi hope aku no au i na mea kaua, na mea maloko o ko oukou lima, na mea a oukou i kaua ai i ke alii o Babulona, a i ko Kaledea, ka poe hoopilikia mai ia oukou mawaho o na pa, a e hoiliili au ia mau mea maloko o keia kulanakauhale.
5 I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation.
A owau no kekahi e kaua aku ia oe, me ka lima kakauha, a me ka lima ikaika, me ka huhu no, a me ka inaina, a me ka ukiuki loa.
6 I will strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and animal: they shall die of a great pestilence.
A e hahau no wau i ka poe noho ma keia kulauakauhale, i kanaka, a me na holoholona; a e make no lakou i ka mai ahulau nui.
7 Afterward," says the LORD, "I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy."'
A mahope iho, wahi a Iehova, e haawi no wau ia Zedekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, a me kana poe kauwa, a me kona poe kanaka, na mea o keia kulanakauhale i koe i ke ahulau, a me ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, o ke alii o Babulona, a iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe imi i ko lakou ola; a e hahau mai no oia ia lakou i ka maka o ka pahikaua. Aole ia e hookoe ia lakou, aole e aloha mai, aole hoi e lokomaikai mai.
8 To this people you shall say, "Thus says the LORD: 'Look, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
Ae olelo aku oe i keia poe kanaka, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, ke kau nei au imua o oukou i ka aoao o ke ola, a me ka aoao o ka make.
9 He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes out, and passes over to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be to him for a prey.
O ka mea e noho ma keia kulanakauhale, e make no ia i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau; aka, o ka mea puka aku iwaho, a haule aku i ko Kaledea, ka poe e hoopilikia ana ia oukou, e ola no ia, a e koe no kona ola i waiwaipio nona iho.
10 For I have set my face on this city for evil, and not for good,' says the LORD: 'it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.'
No ka mea, ua hooku e au i ko'u maka i keia kulanakauhale, ma ka hewa, aole ma ka maikai, wahi a Iehova; a e haawiia ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e puhi oia i keia wahi i ke ahi.
11 Touching the house of the king of Judah, hear the word of the LORD:
E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, no ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda.
12 'House of David, thus says the LORD, "Execute justice in the morning, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my wrath go forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
E ko ka hale o Davida, ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, E hana oukou i ka hooponopono i kakahiaka, a e hoopakele i ka mea i haoia, mai ka lima aku o ka mea hookaumaha, o puka aku ko'u ukiuki, e like me ke ahi, a e a hoi, aole mea e hiki ia ia ke kinai, no ka hewa o ka oukou hana ana.
13 Look, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, and of the rock of the plain," says the LORD; "you that say, 'Who shall come down against us? Or who shall enter into our habitations?'
Aia hoi, ua ku e no wau ia oe, e ka mea noho ma ke awawa, a ma ka pohaku o ka papu hoi, wahi a Iehova, ka poe olelo, Owai la ka mea iho ilalo e ku e ia makou? Owai la ka mea e komo iloko o ko makou wahi noho ai?
14 I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings," says the LORD; "and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is around her."'"
Aka, e hoopai aku au ia oukou, e like me ka hua o ka oukou hana ana, wahi a Iehova; a e puhi no wau i ke ahi iloko o kolaila ululaau, a e hoopau no ia i na mea a pau, a puni ia wahi.
