< Jeremiah 23 >
1 "Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture." says the LORD.
A UWE ka poe kahu i luku, a hoopuehu i ka poe hipa o ko'u kihapai! wahi a Iehova.
2 Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, against the shepherds who feed my people: "You have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them; look, I will visit on you the evil of your doings," says the LORD.
Nolaila, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no na kahu, ka poe hanai i ko'u poe kanaka; Ua hoopuehu oukou i ka'u poe hipa, a ua kipaku ia lakou, aole i hele mai e ike ia lakou; aia hoi, e hoopai no wau maluna o oukou, i ka hewa o ka oukou hana ana, wahi a Iehova.
3 "I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and multiply.
A e hoiliili no wau i ke koena o ka'u poe hipa, mai na aina a pau mai, kahi a'u i hookuke aku ai ia lakou, a e hoihoi hou mai au ia lakou iloko o ko lakou mau pa: a e kawowo lakou, a mahuahua aku.
4 I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking," says the LORD.
A e hoonoho wau i kahu maluna o'lakou, he poe hanai aku ia lakou; aole lakou e makau hou, aole e weliweli, aole hoi lakou e hoopai hou ia, wahi a Iehova.
5 "Look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, o hoala no wau no Davida, i Oha pono, i Alii e noho aupuni, a e pomaikai auanei, a e hana no oia i ka hooponopono, a i ka pololei ma ka honua.
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name by which he shall be called: 'The LORD our righteousness.'
I kona mau la e hoolaia o ka Iuda, a e noho maluhia o ka Iseraela, a eia hoi kona inoa e kapaia mai ai, O IEHOVA KO KAKOU PONO.
7 Therefore look, the days come," says the LORD, "that they shall no more say, 'As the LORD 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 lakou e olelo hou mai, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai ka poe mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai;
8 but, 'As the LORD lives, who brought up and who led the descendants of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries where he had driven them.' They shall dwell in their own land."'
Aka, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai, alakai hoi i na hua o ka hale o ka Iseraela, mai ka aina o ko kukulu akau mai, a mai na aina a pau mai, kahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia lakou; a e noho no lakou ma ko lakou aina iho.
9 Concerning the prophets: My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of the LORD, and because of his holy words.
Ua nahae ko'u naau iloko o'u no na kaula, haalulu no hoi ko'u mau iwi a pau. Ua like no au me ke kanaka i ona, a like hoi me ke kanaka i lanakilaia e ka waina, no Iehova, a no na huaolelo o kona Hemolele.
10 For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. "Their course is evil, and their might is not right;
No ka mea, ua piha ka aina i ka poe moekolohe; no ka mea, ke kumakena nei ka aina, no ka hoohiki ino aua: ua maloo hoi na wahi maikai o ka waonahele; ua hewa ko lakou holo ana, aole hoi i pono ko lakou ikaika.
11 for both prophet and priest are profane; yes, in my house have I found their wickedness," says the LORD.
No ka mea, ua aia no ke kaula, a me ke kahuna, oia, ua loaa no ia'u ko lakou hewa maloko o ko'u hale, wahi a Iehova.
12 "Therefore their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall in it; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation," says the LORD.
Nolaila, e like auanei ko lakou aoao ia lakou, me kahi pahee maloko o ka pouli; e kipakuia'ku la no lakou, a e haule iloko olaila; no ka mea, e lawe no wau i ka hewa maluna o lakou, i ka makahiki hoi o ko lakou hoopaiia, wahi a Iehova.
13 "I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
Ua ike no au i ka lapuwale maloko o na kaula o Samaria, a wanana ae lakou ma o Baala la, a alakai hewa iho la i ko'u poe kanaka, i ka Iseraela.
14 In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none does return from his wickedness: they are all of them become to me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.
Ua ike no hoi au i ka mea inoino loa iloko o na kaula o Ierusalema; moe kolohe no lakou, a hele ma ka wahahee. Hooikaika no hoi lakou i na lima o ka poe hana hewa, i hoi ole mai kekahi, mai kona hewa mai. Ua like no lakou a pau ia'u me ko Sodoma, a o ka poe hoi e noho ana malaila, ua like no me ko Gomora.
15 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets: 'Look, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is ungodliness gone forth into all the land.'
Nolaila, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, no na kaula; Aia hoi, e hanai aku au ia lakou i ka laau awaawa, a e hoohainu aku au ia lakou i ka wai o ke au; no ka mea, mai na kaula o Ierusalema aku i hele aku ai ka aia, a i ka aina a pau.
16 Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you: they teach you vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Mai hoolohe oukou i na olelo a na kaula, ka poe wanana mai ia oukou. Hoolilo no lakou ia oukou i mea lapuwale; hai mai no lakou i ka hihio o ko lakou naau iho, aole mai ka waha o Iehova mai.
17 They say continually to those who despise me, "The LORD has said, 'You shall have peace'"; and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, "No evil shall come on you."
Ke olelo ikaika mai nei lakou i ka poe hoowahawaha mai ia'u, Ua olelo mai o Iehova, E loaa ia oukou ka maluhia: a olelo no hoi lakou i kela mea i keia mea i hele mamuli o ka paakiki o kona naau iho, Aohe hewa e hiki mai ana maluna o oukou.
18 For who has stood in the council of the LORD, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has marked my word, and heard it?
No ka mea, owai ka mea i ku ma ka ahaolelo o Iehova, a ike aku la, a lohe i kana olelo? Owai ka mea i haliu aku i kana olelo a lohe?
19 Look, the storm of the LORD, his wrath, has gone forth. Yes, a whirling storm. It shall burst on the head of the wicked.
Aia hoi, he puahiohio no Iehova ka i puka mai me ka huhu, he puahiohio nui loa; e haule ino no ia maluna o ke poo o ka poe hewa.
20 The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he has executed, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days you shall understand it perfectly.
Aole e hoi hou aku ka huhu o Iehova, a hooko oia, a hana io i ka manao o kona naau. I na la mahope, e hoomaopopo loa oukou ia mea.
21 I sent not these prophets, yet they ran: I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied.
Aole au i hoouna aku i keia poe kaula, ua holo nae lakou; aole au i olelo ia lakou, aka, ua wanana ae lakou.
22 But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
Aka, ina i ku lakou maloko o ka'u ahaolelo; ina ua hana aku i ko'u poe kanaka e lohe i ka'u mau olelo, ina ua hoohuli hoi lakou i kela poo, mai ko lakou aoao hewa mai, a mai ka hewa mai hoi o ka lakou hana ana.
23 Am I a God at hand,' says the LORD, 'and not a God afar off?
He Akua kokoke nei au, wahi a Iehova, aole hoi he Akua ma kahi loihi aku?
24 Can any hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him?' says the LORD. 'Do I not fill heaven and earth?' says the LORD.
E huna anei kekahi ia ia iho ma na wahi malu, i ike ole aku ai au ia ia, wahi a Iehova? Aole anei au i hoopiha i ka lani, a me ka honua? wahi a Iehova.
25 'I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, "I have dreamed, I have dreamed."
Ua lohe no wau i na mea a na kaula i olelo ai, ka poe i wanana wahahee ma ko'u inoa, me ka olelo iho, Ua moeuhane au, ua moeuhane au.
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart,
Pehea la ka loihi o ka noho ana o keia iloko o ka naau o na kaula, ka poe wanana wahahee? Oia, he poe kaula lakou no ka hoopunipuni o ko lakou naau iho;
27 who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
He poe manao e haawi i ko'u poe kanaka i ka hoopoina i ko'u inoa, no ko lakou mau moeuhane, na mea a kela mea keia mea o lakou i hai ae i kona hoalauna, e like me ko lakou poe makua i hoopoina i ko'u inoa ma o Baala la.
28 The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat?' says the LORD.
O ke kaula moeuhane, e hai ae oia i ka moeuhane; a o ka mea ia ia ka'u olelo, e hai pololei oia i ka'u olelo. Heaha ke aa i ka palaoa, wahi a Iehova?
29 'Isn't my word like fire?' says the LORD; 'and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
Aole anei i like ka'u olelo me ke ahi? wahi a Iehova; a like hoi me ka hamare, ka mea e nahaha ai ka pohaku?
30 Therefore look, I am against the prophets,' says the LORD, 'who steal my words everyone from his neighbor.
Nolaila au e ku e nei i na kaula, wahi a Iehova, na mea aihue i ka'u mau olelo, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i ka kona hoalauna.
31 Look, I am against the prophets,' says the LORD, 'who use their tongues, and say, "He says."
Aia hoi, ke ku e nei au i na kaula, wahi a Iehova, ka poe hana me ko lakou alelo, a olelo mai, Ke i mai nei oia.
32 Look, I am against the prophets who prophesy lying dreams,' says the LORD, 'and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I did not send them, nor commanded them; neither do they profit this people at all,' says the LORD.
Aia hoi, ke ku e nei au i ka poe wanana iho i na moeuhane wahahee, wahi a Iehova, a hai ae ia mau mea, a alakai hewa i ko'u poe kanaka, i ka lakou mau mea wahahee, a i ka lakou kaena ana: aole nae au i hoouna ia lakou, aole i kauoha aku ia lakou: nolaila, aole lakou e hoopomaikai iki i keia poe kanaka, wahi a Iehova.
33 'When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask you, saying, "What is the burden of the LORD?" Then you shall tell them, "You are the burden, and I will cast you off," says the LORD.
A hiki i ka manawa e ninau mai ai ia oe, o keia poe kanaka, a o ke kaula paha, a o ke kahuna paha, a olelo mai, Heaha ka wanana a Iehova? Alaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou, O ka wanana hea? E haalele no wau ia oukou, wahi a Iehova.
34 As for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, who shall say, "The burden of the LORD," I will even punish that man and his house.
A o ke kaula, a o ke kahuna, a o ka lahuikanaka e olelo, Ka wanana a Iehova, na'u no e hoopai aku i kela kanaka, a me ko kona hale.
35 You shall say everyone to his neighbor, and everyone to his brother, "What has the LORD answered?" and, "What has the LORD spoken?"
Penei oukou e olelo ai, o kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna, o kela mea keia mea i kona hoahanau; Heaha ka Iehova i pane mai ai? a heaha hoi ka Iehova i olelo mai ai?
36 You shall mention the burden of the LORD no more: for every man's own word shall be his burden; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.
A mai hai hou oukou i ka wanana a Iehova; no ka mea, o ka olelo a kela kanaka keia kanaka, oia kana wanana: no ka mea, ua hoololi oukou i na olelo a ke Akua ola, o Iehova o na kaua, o ko kakou Akua.
37 You shall say to the prophet, "What has the LORD answered you?" and, "What has the LORD spoken?"
Penei oe o olelo aku ai i ke kaula, Heaha ka Iehova i pane mai ai ia oe? a heaha hoi ka Iehova i olelo mai ai?
38 But if you say, "The burden of the LORD"; therefore thus says the LORD: Because you say this word, "The burden of the LORD," and I have sent to you, saying, "You shall not say, 'The burden of the LORD'";
Aka, no ka oukou olelo ana, Ka wanana a Iehova; nolaila, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova; No ka oukou olelo ana mai i keia olelo, Ka wanana a Iehova, a ua hoouna aku au ia oukou, me ka i iho, Mai olelo oukou, Ka wanana a Iehova;
39 therefore, look, I will surely lift you up and I will cast you off, and the city that I gave to you and to your fathers, away from my presence:
Nolaila, wau no, e hoopoina loa no wau ia oukou, a e haalele no wau ia oukou, a me ke kulanakauhale a'u i haawi aku ai ia oukou, a me ko oukou poe kupuna, a e lilo auanei oukou mai ko'u alo aku.
40 and I will bring an everlasting reproach on you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.'"
A e haawi no wau ia oukou, i mea hoowahawaha mau loa, a i hilahila pau ole, aole hoi e poinaia.
