Jeremiah 25
1 After Jehoiakim had been ruling Judah for almost four years, Yahweh gave me this message for all the people of Judah. It was during the year that King Nebuchadnezzar started to rule in Babylon.
KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la no na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, i ka makahiki aha o lehoiakima, ke keiki a losia, ke alii o ka Iuda, oia hoi ka makahiki akahi o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona:
2 I spoke this message to all the people in Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah:
Ka mea a Ieremia, ke kaula i olelo ai i na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, a i ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema, i mai la,
3 “Yahweh has been giving me messages for 23 years. He started giving me messages when Josiah, the son of Amon, had been ruling Judah for almost 13 years. And I have faithfully told you those messages, but you have not paid any attention to them.
Mai ka makahiki umikumamakolu o Iosia, ke keiki a Amona, ke alii o ka Iuda a hiki loa mai i keia la, eia hoi ka makahiki iwakaluakumamakolu, ua hiki mai no ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, a ua olelo aku no wau ia oukou, e ala ana i ka wanaao e olelo aku; aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai.
4 Many times Yahweh has sent to you the prophets who served him, but you have not listened to them or paid any attention to what they said.
A ua hoouna mai o Iehova io oukou nei i kana mau kauwa a pau, i na kaula hoi, e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna; aka, aole oukou i hoolohe, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko oukou pepeiao e lohe ai.
5 Each time their message was this: ‘Turn from all your evil behavior [MET], from all the evil things that you have continually been doing. If you do that, you will be able to stay in this land that Yahweh gave to you and to your ancestors, [to belong to you] forever.
I mai la lakou, E huli hou kela mea keia mea, mai kona aoao hewa mai, a mai ka hewa mai o ka oukou hana ana, a e noho hoi i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai ia oukou, a i ko oukou poe makua, a hiki a kau, a hiki loa aku.
6 Do not cause Yahweh to become angry by serving and worshiping idols that you have made with your hands. If you do not cause him to be angry, he will not punish/harm you.’
A mai hele hoi mamuli o na akua e, e malama ia lakou, a e hoomana ia lakou; a mai hoonaukiuki mai oukou ia'u i na hana a ko oukou mau lima; alaila, aole au e hana ino ia oukou.
7 And Yahweh says, ‘But you would not pay attention to the messages that I [gave to those prophets]. You caused me to become extremely angry by [your worshiping idols] that you had made with your own hands. That resulted in my punishing you.
Aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova, i hoonaukiuki mai oukou ia'u i na hana a ko oukou mau lima, i mea e hewa'i oukou.
8 So [now, I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say that because you have not paid attention to what I said,
Nolaila, ke olelo mai o Iehova o na kaua; No ko oukou hoolohe ole i ka'u mau olelo,
9 I will gather all [the armies of] the nations that will come from the northeast. I have appointed King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to lead them. I have appointed him to do my work for me. I will bring those [armies] to attack this land and nearby countries. I will completely destroy them, and cause them to be places that people are horrified about, and that people will (ridicule/act contemptuously toward), places that will be ruined forever.
Aia hoi, e hoouna au, a lawe mai i na ohana kanaka a pau o ke kukulu akau, wahi a Iehova, a me Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, ka'u kauwa, a e lawe mai au ia lakou e ku e i keia aina, a e ku e i kolaila poe kanaka, a e ku e hoi i keia mau lahuikanaka a pau e puni ana, a e luku loa ia lakou, a hoolilo ia lakou i mea e pilihua ai, a i mea e hoowahawaha ai, a i neoneo mau loa.
10 I will cause happy singing and laughing to cease in your land. There will no longer be brides and bridegrooms talking [joyfully]. There will not be the sound of people grinding [grain] with millstones. There will be no lamps lit [in your houses].
A e lawe no wau, mai o lakou aku, i ka leo o ka olioli, a me ka leo o ka hauoli, i ka leo o ke kane mare, a me ka leo o ka wahine mare, i ke kani ana o na pohaku kaapalaoa, a me ka malamalama o ke kukui.
11 All of this land will become a desert where no one will live. And [the people of] Israel and of the nearby countries will [will be exiled to Babylonia and] (work for/be slaves of) the kings of Babylon for seventy years.
A e lilo no keia aina a pau i neoneo, a i mea e pilihua'i. A e hookauwa aku ko keia mau aina na ke alii o Babulona, i kanahiku makahiki.
12 Then, after [they have been in Babylonia for] seventy years, I will punish the King of Babylonia and his people for the sins that they have committed. I will cause Babylonia to become a wasteland/desert forever.
A hiki i ka manawa i hala'e na makahiki he kanahiku, alaila, e hoopai aku au i ke alii o Babulona, a me ia lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova, no ko lakou hewa, a i ka aina hoi o ko Kaledea, a e hoolilo no wau ia wahi, i neoneo mau loa.
13 I will cause them to experience all the terrible things that Jeremiah has written about—all the punishments that he predicted will happen to all those nations.
A e lawe aku au maluna o ia aina i ka'u mau olelo a pau a'u i hai ku e ia ia, i na mea a pau hoi i kakauia maloko o ka buke a Ieremia i wanana ai e ku e i na aina a pau.
14 The leaders of many nations will cause the people of Babylonia to become their slaves, like the people of Babylonia caused my people to become slaves. I will punish them like they deserve for [having caused my people to suffer].’”
No ka mea, e hookauwa aku lakou na na lahuikanaka he nui, a na na'lii kaulana no hoi. A e hoouku no wau ia lakou, e like me ka lakou hana ana, a e like hoi me na hana a ko lakou lima iho.
15 Then Yahweh, the God [we] Israelis [worship], gave me [a vision. In the vision he was holding a cup of wine]. He said, “Take from me this cup that is full of [wine that represents] punishment [MTY]. I will cause all [the leaders of] the nations to which I will send you to drink [some of] the wine in this cup.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela ia'u penei; E lawe oe i ke kiaha waina o keia ukiuki ma kuu lima, a e hoohainu aku ia i na lahuikanaka a pau a'u e hoouna aku ai ia oe io lakou la.
16 When they drink [the wine], they will stagger and act like crazy people, because [they will realize that] I will (massacre many of their people/cause many of their people to be killed) [MTY] with swords.”
A e inu no lakou, a e haalulu no, a e hehena iho, imua o ka pahikaua a'u e hoouna aku ai iwaena o lakou.
17 So, [in the vision, ] I took that cup [full of wine] from Yahweh, and I took it to all the nations to which he sent me, and caused [the leaders of those] nations to drink [some of that wine].
A lawe iho la au i ke kiaha ma ka lima o Iehova, hoohainu aku la i na lahuikanaka a pau a Iehova i hoouna mai ai ia'u ia lakou:
18 [I went to] Jerusalem and the [other] towns in Judah, and the king and [the other] officials drank [some of the wine] from that cup. And, starting from that day, they all [eventually] were removed from having authority, and became [people whom others] (ridiculed/acted contemptuously towards), who were despised, and cursed.
Ia Ierusalema hoi, a i na kulanakauhale o Iuda, a i kona poe alii, a i kona poe kaukaualii, e haawi hoi ia lakou no ka hooneoneoia, i mea e pilihua ai, a i mea hoowahawaha, a i mea e poino ai, e like me ia i keia la;
19 [In the vision I went to] Egypt [and gave some of the wine] to the king and his officials and many of his people,
Ia Parao i ke alii o Aigupita, a i kana poe kauwa, a i kana poe alii, a i kona poe kanaka a pau;
20 and to foreigners who were living there. [In the vision I also went to] Uz land and to Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and Ashdod [cities and gave some of the wine] to the kings [of those places].
A i na malihini a pau, a i na a'lii o ka aina o Uza, a i na'lii a pau o na aina o ko Pilisetia, a me Asekelona, a me Aza, a me Ekerona, a me ke koena o Asedoda;
21 [Then in the vision I went to the] Edom, Moab, and Ammon [people-groups],
Ia Edoma, a me Moaba, a me na mamo a Amona;
22 and to Tyre and Sidon [cities] and to areas across the [Mediterranean] Sea, and [gave some of the wine] to the kings [of those places].
I na'lii a pau o Turo, ai na'lii a pau o na aina o Zidona, a i na'lii o na aina ma kela aoao o ke kai;
23 [In the vision I then went] to Dedan, Tema, and Buz [cities in Arabia] and to other distant places (OR, places where people cut their hair short), [and gave some of the wine to leaders in those areas].
Ia Dedana, a me Tema, a me Buza, a me na mea a pau ma na mokuna loihi loa aku;
24 [In the vision I also went to other places in] Arabia and to the [kings of tribes] in the desert
A i na'lii a pau o Arabia, a i na'lii a pau o na malihini e noho ana ma ka waonahele;
25 and to the kings of the Zimri, Elam, and Media [people-groups],
A i na'lii a pau o Zimeri, a i na'lii a pau o Elama, a i na'lii a pau o Media;
26 and to kings in countries to the north that are near [to Israel] and to countries that are far [from Israel], one after the other— [I went to] all the kingdoms in the world [HYP]. And finally, [in my vision I went to] Babylon, and gave [some of] the wine to the king of Babylon—the wine [that symbolized that Yahweh would punish the people of Babylon because he was angry with them] [MTY].
A i na'lii a pau o ke kukuluakau, ma kahi loihi aku, a ma kahi kokoke mai, kekahi i kekahi, a i na aupuni a pau o keia ao, maluna o ka honua nei; a e inu ke alii, o Sesaka mahope o lakou.
27 Then [in the vision Yahweh said to me], “Tell them that this is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says: ‘Drink [from this cup some of the wine that represents the punishment that I will give you]. Drink [a lot of it] and become drunk and vomit. You will fall down and not get up again, because I will cause you to be killed in wars [MTY] that I will send to you.
A e olelo no oe ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia; E inu oukou a ona, a e luai aku, a e hina, aole hoi e ala hou, no ka pahikaua a'u e hoouna aku ai iwaena o oukou.
28 If any of those to whom you give this wine [MTY] refuse to drink it, tell them that the Commander of the armies of angels says that they must drink it.
A ina hoole lakou aole lawe i ke kiaha ma kou lima e inu ai, alaila, e olelo oe ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; E inu io auanei oukou.
29 I am starting to cause the people of my own city to experience disaster. [Do you think that] you should not be punished [RHQ]? No, you will surely be punished [LIT] because I am causing there to be wars in all the nations on the earth. [That will surely happen because] I, the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.’
No ka mea, aia hoi, ke hoomaka nei au e lawe mai i ka hewa maluna o ke kulanakauhale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, a e hoopai ole loa ia anei oukou? Aole ole ko oukou hoopaiia; no ka mea, e hea aku no wau i ka pahikaua, e hele ae maluna o ka poe a pau e noho la ma ka honua, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
30 Now tell them all those things that I have said, and also say this to them: ‘Yahweh will [shout to them] from his holy dwelling [in heaven] [MTY] and [it will sound like] the roar of a lion. He will shout like [SIM] people shout when they are treading on grapes [to make juice for wine]; he will shout to everyone on the earth.
A e wanana ku e oe ia lakou i keia mau olelo a pau, a e olelo ia lakou, E uwo mai no o Iehova, mailuna mai, a e haawi mai oia i kona leo, mai kahi e noho ai kona hemolelo mai; e uwo nui loa oia maluna o kona wahi noho ai; e like me ka poe hahi, pela no oia e hooho ai e ku e i ka poe e noho la ma ka honua.
31 Even people in very remote places around the earth will hear him shouting, because he will say why he will judge and punish all the nations. He will cause the wicked people to be slaughtered with swords. [That will surely happen because] Yahweh has said it.’
E hiki mai no ka uwalaau, mai na kukulu mai o ka honua; no ka mea, he paio no ka Iehova me ko na aina, e hooponopono no oia maluna o na mea io a pau; e haawi no hoi oia i ka poe hewa i ka pahikaua, wahi a Iehova.
32 Then tell them that this is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: ‘Listen to this! There will be disasters in one nation after another. [I am preparing to punish them like] [MET] a great storm that starts in the most distant places on the earth.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Aia hoi, e puka no ka hewa, mai kekahi aina, a i kekahi aina; a e hoalaia ka puahiohio, mai na kukulu o ka honua mai.
33 When that happens, [the corpses of] those whom I have [caused to be] slaughtered will fill the earth from the east to the west. And no one will mourn for them, and no one will gather their corpses to bury them. They will be [scattered] on the ground like manure.
A i kela la, e palahalaha auanei ka poe i pepehiia e Iehova, mai kekahi kukulu o ka honua, a i kekahi kukulu: aole lakou e kumakenaia, aole hoi e hoiliiliia, aole e kanuia; e lilo lakou i lepo maluna o ka aina.
34 You [evil] leaders, weep and moan! You who should take care of my people, [fall down and] roll in the dust/dirt. It is time for you to be slaughtered; you will fall down and be shattered like a fragile vase [shatters when it falls to the ground].
E aoa oukou, e na kahuhipa, a e uwe aku; a e kapi ia oukou iho i ka lehu, e ka poe malama hipa; no ka mea, ua lawa ko oukou mau la o ka pepehi, a me ka hoopuehu, a e haule no oukou, e like me ke kiaha maikai.
35 You will not find any place to hide, there will be no place to which you can escape.
Aohe wahi no na kahuhipa e pee aku ai; aohe wahi hoi e pakele ai ka malama hipa.
36 [People will] listen to your leaders crying when [I], Yahweh, am ruining your nation.
He leo hoi no ka uwe ana o na kahuhipa, a me ka aoa ana o ka poe malama hipa, no ka mea, ua anai o Iehova i ko lakou wahi e ai ai.
37 Your peaceful meadows will become a wasteland/desert because I will be extremely angry.
Ua hoopauia ko lakou wahi e noho ai me ka malu, no ka ukiuki nui o Iehova.
38 I will leave [my dwelling like] [SIM] a lion leaves its den [to attack other animals], and I will cause your land to become desolate when I, because I am very angry [with you], cause [your enemies to slaughter you with their] swords.’”
Ua haalele oia i kona wahi huna me he liona la; no ka mea, ua neoneo ko lakou aina, no ka huhu nui o ka mea hookaumaha, a no kona ukiuki loa.
