< Jeremiah 14 >
1 So much of the word of Yahweh as came unto Jeremiah, concerning the matter of the drought: —
KA olelo a Iehova i hiki mai io Ieremia la no ka wi.
2 Judah mourneth, And the gates thereof, pine They lie in gloom on the ground, —And, the outcry of Jerusalem, hath ascended;
Ke kanikau nei o ka Iuda, a kumakena hoi kona mau pukapa; ua eleele hoi a ilalo i ka lepo; ua pii aku la no ka uwe ana o ko Ierusalema.
3 And, their nobles have sent their menials to the waters, —They have been to the pits, They have found no water They have returned, their vessels empty, They are pale and ashamed and have covered their heads.
O kolaila poe koikoi, ua hoouna lakou i ka lakou poe uuku e kii i ka wai; ua hele mai hoi lakou i na luawai, aole loaa ia lakou ka wai: hoi aku no lakou, aohe mea iloko o ko lakou hue. Hilahila iho la lakou, a hoopalaimaka, a pulou iho la i ko lakou mau poo.
4 Because the ground, is cracked, For there hath been no rain in the land, The plowmen are pale They have covered their heads.
No ka mea, ua nakaka ka lepo, no ka na ole maluna o ka honua. Ua hilahila ka poe mahiai, ua pulou lakou i ko lakou mau poo.
5 For, even the hind of the field hath calved and forsaken, Because there is no young herbage;
Oia, hanau ae la ka dia ma ke kula, a haalele iho la, no ka mea, aohe mauu.
6 Yea, wild asses stand still on the bare heights, They pant for air like jackals, —Dimmed are their eyes Because there is no grass.
Ku mai la hoi na hoki hihiu ma na wahi kiekie; hau ae la lakou i ka makani e like me na iliohae; pau iho la no hoi ko lakou mau maka no ka mea, aohe mauu.
7 Though, our iniquities, have testified against us, O Yahweh, effectually work thou for the sake of thy Name, —For our apostasies have abounded Against thee, have we sinned.
E Iehova, ke hoike ku e mai nei ko makou hewa ia makou, aka, e hana mai oe no kou inoa iho; no ka mea, ua nui loa ko makou hoi hope ana, ua hana hewa makou ia oe.
8 Thou Hope of Israel, His Saviour in the time of distress, —Wherefore shouldst thou be as a sojourner in the and? Or as a wayfarer, who hath turned aside to lodge for the night?
E ka mea e manaolana'i o ka Iseraela, o kona Hoola i ka manawa o ka popilikia, no ke aha la oe e like ai me ka malihini maloko o ka aina, a e like hoi me ke kanaka hele, i kipa'e e moe i kekahi po?
9 Wherefore, shouldst thou be as a man astounded, As a mighty man who cannot save? Yet, thou, art in our midst—O Yahweh And, thy Name, on us, hath been called Do not abandon us!
No ke aha la oe e like ai me ke kanaka pilihua, e like hoi me ke kanaka koa hiki ole ke hoola? Aka, o oe, e Iehova, eia no oe iwaenakonu o makou, a ua kapaia makou ma kou inoa; mai haalele oe ia makou.
10 Thus, saith Yahweh To this people In this way, have they loved to wander, Their feet, have they not restrained, —Yahweh, therefore hath not accepted them, Now, will he call to mind their iniquity, —That he may punish their sins.
Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova i keia poe kanaka, ua makemake no lakou e hele hewa pela, aole lakou i kaohi i ko lakou mau wawae; nolaila, aole i ae mai o Iehova ia lakou; e hoomanao no oia i ko lakou hewa, a e hoopai hoi i ko lakou hala.
11 And Yahweh said unto me, —Do not pray for this people for blessing;
Alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Mai pule aku oe no keia poe kanaka, no ka maikai.
12 Though they fast, I am not going to hearken unto their loud cry, and Though they offer ascending-sacrifice and meal-offering, I am not going to accept them, —For with sword and with famine and with pestilence, am, I, about to consume them.
Ia lakou e hookeai ai, aole au e hoolohe i ko lakou kahea ana; a ia lakou e kaumaha'i i ka mohai kuni, a me ka mohai makana, aole au e ae aku ia lakou; aka, e hoopau no wau ia lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau.
13 Then said I, Ah, My Lord Yahweh! Lo! the prophets, are saying to them—Ye shall not see the sword And famine, shall ye not have, —For prosperity in truth, will I give you, in this place.
Alaila, i iho la au, Auwe, e ka Haku, e Iehova e! Aia hoi, ke olelo mai nei na kaula ia lakou, Aole oukou e ike i ka pahikaua, aole hoi e loaa ia oukou ka wi; aka, e haawi aku no au ia oukou i ka malu oiaio ma keia wahi.
14 So then Yahweh said unto me, Falsehood, are the prophets prophesying in my name, I have not sent them Neither have I commanded them, Neither have I spoken unto them, —A vision of falsehood, and A divination of worthlessness and A fraud of their own hearts, They, are prophesying unto you.
Alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ke wanana nei na kaula i ka wahahee ma ko'u inoa. Aole au i hoouna aku ia lakou, aole hoi au i kauoha aku la ia lakou, aole hoi au i olelo ia lakou. Ke wanana nei lakou ia oukou i hihio wahahee, a me ka anaana, a me ka mea hope ole, a me ka wahahee o ko lakou naau.
15 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh concerning the prophets who are prophesying in my Name though, I, sent them not, and yet, they have been, saying, Neither sword nor famine, shall there be in this land, —By sword or by famine, shall, those prophets, be consumed;
Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, no na kaula, ka poe i wanana ma ko'u inoa, aole hoi au i hoouna aku ia lakou; aka, ke olelo nei lakou, Aole e hiki mai ka pahikaua, aole hoi ka wi iloko o keia aina: E hoopauia ua poe kaula la, i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi.
16 And the people to whom they have been prophesying shall be getting cast out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword, and of there being none to give burial unto them, them, their wives, nor their sons nor their daughters, —So will I pour out upon them their own wickedness.
A o na kanaka a lakou i ao aku ai i ka wanana ana, e kiolaia'ku no lakou iloko o na alanui o Ierusalema, no ka wi, a me ka pahikaua; aohe o lakou mea nana lakou e kanu, o lakou, a me ka lakou wahine, aole hoi ka lakou keikikane, aole ka lakou kaikamahine; no ka mea, e ninini aku au i ko lakou hewa maluna o lakou.
17 Therefore shalt thou say unto them this word, Let mine eyes, run down with tears night and day, And let them not rest, —For with a grievous injury, hath been injured the virgin the daughter of my people, With a wound, severe indeed!
Nolaila, e olelo aku oe i keia olelo ia lakou; E kahe no ko'u mau maka i ka wai, i ka po a me ke ao, aole hoi laua e hooki; no ka mea, ua lukuia i ka luku nui ke kaikamahine puupaa o ko'u poe kanaka, i ka hahau ino loa.
18 If I have gone out into the field, Then lo! the slain of the sword! And, if I have entered the city, Then lo! the diseases of famine! For, both prophet and priest, have trafficked against the land unnoticed.
Ina e hele aku au i ke kula, alaila, e nana i ka poe i lukuia i ka pahikaua! a ina komo wau iloko o ke kulanakauhale, alaila, e nana aku i ka poe i mai no ka wi! Oia, kaahele aku no ke kaula, a me ke kahuna iloko o ka aina a lakou i ike ole ai.
19 Hast thou, utterly rejected, Judah? Zion itself, hath thy soul loathed? Why, hast thou smitten us so that there is for us no healing? A waiting For prosperity, but no welfare, and For a time of healing, but lo! terror!
Ua hoole loa anei oe i ka Iuda? Ua hoopailua anei kou uhane ia Ziona? No ke aha la oe i pepehi mai ai ia makou, aole hoi he hoola no makou? Kakali makou i ka malu, aole hoi he pono: a i ka hoola hoi, aia hoi, he popilikia!
20 We acknowledge O Yahweh Our own lawlessness The iniquity of our fathers, —For we have sinned against thee.
E Iehova, ua ike no makou i ko makou hewa, a me ka hala o ko makou poe makua; no ka mea, ua hana hewa aku makou ia oe.
21 Do not despise—for the sake of thy Name, Do not treat with contempt—the throne of thy glory, —Remember!—do not break thy covenant with us.
Mai hoowahawaha mai oe, no kou inoa iho, mai hoino oe i ka nohoalii o kou nani. E hoomanao, mai uhai oe i kou berita me makou.
22 Are there, among the vanities of the nations senders of rain? Or can, the heavens themselves, give myriad drops? Art not, thou, he, O Yahweh our God? Therefore will we wait for thee, For, thou, hast made all these.
Aia anei iwaena o na mea lapuwale o na aina e kekahi mea hooua mai i ka ua? E hiki anei i na lani ke haawi mai i ka ua? Aole anei o oe ia, e Iehova, ko makou Akua? Nolaila makou e hilinai aku ai ia oe; no ka mea, ua hana oe i keia mau mea a pau.
