Jeremiah 31
1 Yahweh says that at that time, he will be the God [who is worshiped by] all the clans in Israel, and they will be his people.
I A manawa, wahi a Iehova, owau auanei ke Akua o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, a o lakou auanei ko'u poe kanaka.
2 This is what Yahweh says: “Those [people] who remained alive and were not killed by [their enemies’] swords were blessed [by me even] in the desert; I enabled them to have peace.
Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, O na kanaka i koe o ka pahikaua, loaa no ia lakou ka lokomaikai ma ka waonahele, o ka Iseraela hoi, ia'u i hele ai e hoomaha ia lakou.
3 Long ago [I, ] Yahweh, said to [your ancestors, ] the Israeli people, ‘I have loved you and I will continue to love you forever. By faithfully loving you, I have brought you close to myself.’
I ka wa kahiko, ikea o Iehova ia'u, i mai la, Oiaio, ua mau loa ko'u aloha aku ia oe; nolaila, ua hooloihi aku au i ka lokomaikai nou.
4 And [now I tell you], my Israeli people whom I love [MET], that I will cause you to be a nation again. You will [joyfully] dance as you play your tambourines.
E kukulu hou ana no wau ia oe, a e kukuluia no oe, e ke kaikamahine puupaa o ka Iseraela. E kahiko hou ia no oe i kou mau pahu kani, e hele aku no i ka haa ana o ka poe olioli.
5 Again you will plant your vineyards on the hills of Samaria, and you will eat the grapes [that grow there].
E kanu hou ana no oe i na kumuwaina ma na mauna o Samaria; e kanu no ka poe kanu, a e ai wale hoi.
6 There will be a time when watchmen will call out from the hills of Samaria [MTY], ‘Come, let’s go up to Jerusalem to [worship] Yahweh, our God!'”
No ka mea, e hiki mai auanei ka la e hea aku ai ka poe kiai maluna o ka mauna o Eperaima, E ala mai oukou, a e pii aku kakou i Ziona, io Iehova la, i ko kakou Akua.
7 And now Yahweh also says this: “Sing joyfully about [what I have done for] the people of Israel! Shout about [your nation, ] the greatest nation! Shout joyfully, praising me and saying, ‘Yahweh, rescue your people, the ones who are still alive!’
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; E mele olioli no Iehova, a e hauoli hoi ma ke poo o na aina; e kala aku, a e halelu, a e olelo iho, E Iehova, e hoola oe i kou poe kanaka i ke koena o ka Iseraela.
8 Do that [because] I will bring them back from the northeast, from the most distant places on the earth. Among them will be blind people and lame people, women who are pregnant and women who are (having labor pains/about to give birth to babies). They will be a huge group of people!
Aia hoi, e lawe no wau ia lakou, mai ka aina o ke kukulu akau mai, a e hoiliili hoi ia lakou, mai na mokuna mai o ka honua, me lakou pu no, ka poe makapo, a me ka poe oopa, a me ka wahine hapai, a me ka wahine hanau keiki ana; he poe nui ka i hoi pu mai.
9 They will be crying as they return, and they will be praying [to me]. I will guide them along streams of water, on level paths where they will not stumble. [I will do this] because I am [like] a father to the Israeli people; [it is as though] Israel is my oldest son.”
E hele mai no lakou me ka uwe, ia lakou e pule ai, e alakai no wau ia lakou; e hoohele no wau ia lakou ma na kahawai, ma ke ala pololei; aole lakou e kulanalana malaila, no ka mea, he Makua no wau no ka Iseraela, a o Eperaima ka'u hiapo.
10 Yahweh says, “[You people in the] nations of the world, listen to this message from me. Then proclaim it to [people who live along] the coasts far away. I scattered my people, but I will gather them [again] and will take care of them like [SIM] a shepherd takes care of his sheep.
E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e ko na aina, a e kala aku hoi ma na aina loihi e aku, a e olelo, O ka mea i hoopuehu i ka Iseraela, nana no lakou e hoiliili, a e malama ia lakou, e like me ke kahuhipa i kona poe hipa.
11 I will buy [my] Israeli people back from those who [conquered them because] they were more powerful [than my people].
No ka mea, ua hoolapanai o Iehova ia Iakoba me ka uku hoopakele ia ia, mailoko mai o ka lima i oi aku ka ikaika i kona.
12 My people will return [to Jerusalem] and shout joyfully on the slopes of Zion Hill. They will rejoice about the things that I have abundantly given to them— grain and new wine and [olive] oil and young sheep and cattle. They themselves will be like a well-watered garden, and they will no longer be sad.
A e hele mai no lakou a e oli ma kahi kiekie o Ziona, a holo pu no lakou i ka maikai o Iehova, no ka huapalaoa, a no ka waina, a no ka aila, a no na keiki o na hipa, a me na bipi; a e like auanei ko lakou uhane me ka mahinaai i mau; aole loa lakou e kaumaha hou aku.
13 The young women will dance joyfully, and [all] the men, young ones and old ones, will join with them. I will cause them to rejoice instead of mourning; I will comfort them and cause them to be happy instead of being sad.
Alaila, e olioli no ka wahine puupaa ma ka haa ana, o na kanaka opiopio a me na elemakule pu; no ka mea, e hoololi au i ko lakou kaumaha ana i olioli, a e hoomaha au ia lakou, a e hoohauoli ia lakou mailoko mai o ko lakou kaumaha.
14 The priests will have plenty of things to eat and drink, and [all] my people will be filled with the good things that I give them. [That will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!”
A hoomaona aku au i ka uhane o na kahuna i ka momona, a e maona auanei ko'u poe kanaka i ko'u maikai, wahi a Iehova.
15 Yahweh [also] says this: “Women were weeping in Ramah [town on the border between Israel and Judah]; they were mourning and crying very loudly. [The women who were the descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh, the two grandsons of] Rachel [the wife of Jacob], were weeping about their children, and no one could comfort them because their children were [all] dead.
Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei; Ua loheia ka leo ma Rama, he pihe, a me ka uwe nui ana; e uwe ana o Rahela no kana mau keiki, a hoole oia, aole e na no kana mau keiki, no ka mea, aole ae nei lakou.
16 [But now] this is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘Do not cry [any more], because I will reward you [for the good things you have done for your children]. Your children will return from the land where their enemies [have taken them].
Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei; E uumi oe i kou leo i ka uwe ana, a me kou mau maka i ua waimaka; no ka mea, e ukuia no kau hana. wahi a Iehova; a e hele hou mai no lakou, mai ka aina mai o ka enemi.
17 [I], Yahweh, am telling you that there are things that you can confidently expect [me to do for you] in the future. Your children will return to their own land.’
He lana no ka manao i kou hope, wahi a Iehova, i hele hou mai no na keiki i ko lakou mokuna iho.
18 I have heard [the people of] Israel grieving very much [and saying to me], ‘You punished us severely, like [SIM] calves are beaten [by their owners to train them for pulling a plow]. [So] bring us back [to obey/worship you again], because we are ready to return to you, because you [alone] are Yahweh, our God.
Oiaio no ua lohe au ia Eperaima e olo pihe ana, Ua paipai mai oe ia'u, a ua paipaiia mai au, e like me ka bipi maa ole. E hoohuli oe ia'u, a e hoohuliia no wau, no ka mea, o oe no o Iehova, ko'u Akua.
19 We turned away [from you], but we repented; [after you] caused us to realize [that we were guilty]. We beat our chests to show that we were very ashamed [DOU] of the sins that we committed when we were young.’
No ka mea, mahope o ko'u hoohuliia, mihi no wau; a mahope o ko'u aoia mai, hahau no wau i ko'u uha. Hilahila no wau, oia, hoopalaimaka no hoi, no ka mea, kaikai no wau i ka hoowahawaha o ko'u wa opiopio.
20 But [I], Yahweh, say this: The Israeli people certainly are [RHQ] still my dear children [DOU]. It is often necessary for me to threaten [to punish] them, but I still love them. That is why I have not forgotten them, and I will certainly act mercifully toward them.
O Eperaima anei ka'u keiki aloha? He keiki anei ia e olioli ai? No ka mea, mai ka wa mai o kau olelo ku e ana ia ia, he oiaio, ke hoomanao mau nei au ia ia: nolaila, e haehae nei ko'u opu nona; he oiaio no e lokomaikai aku no wau ia ia, wahi a Iehova.
21 [You Israeli people, ] set up road signs; put up posts [along the roads] to mark the road on which you walked [when you were taken from Jerusalem]. My precious/beloved Israeli people, come back to your towns here.
E kukulu oe i ahu, a hana hoi i puu kiekie nou; e kau oe i kou naau ma ke kuamoo, ma ke ala au i hele ai. E huli hou oe, e ke kaikamahine puupaa o ka Iseraela, e huli hou oe i keia mau kulanakauhale ou.
22 You people who have been like [MET] daughters who have forsaken their parents, how long will you continue to wander [away from me] [RHQ]? I, Yahweh, will cause something to happen on the earth that (is new/has not happened before): The women of Israel will be protecting their husbands as they travel [back here]!”
Pehea la ka loihi o kou aea ana aku, e ke kaikamahine hoi hope? No ka mea, ua hana o Iehova i ka mea hou ma ka honua, na ka wahine no e hoomalu i ke kane.
23 This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israeli people [worship], says: “When I bring them back from the countries to which they have been exiled, all the people from the towns in Judah will again say, [‘I hope that] Yahweh will bless this my home, the holy place where righteous [people will live]!’
Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; E olelo hou no lakou i keia mau olelo ma ka aina o ka Iuda, a ma kolaila mau kulanakauhale, i ka wa a'u e hoihoi ai i ko lakou pio ana; Na Iehova e hoopomaikai ia oe, i kahi e noho ai o ka hoopono, ka mauna hoi o ka hemolele.
24 [The people of] Judah [who live in] the towns, including the farmers and the shepherds, will all live together [peacefully].
A e noho pu no maloko olaila, ma ka Iuda hoi, a maloko o kolaila mau kulanakauhale a pau ka poe mahiai, a me ka poe malama hipa.
25 I will enable weary people to rest, and enable people who are very exhausted to become strong again.”
No ka mea, ua hooana aku au i ka uhane i makewai, a ua hoomaona wau i na uhane a pau i niuniu.
26 I, [Jeremiah], woke up [after dreaming all those things], and I looked [around]. I had slept [very] delightfully!
Alaila, ala iho la au, a nana ae la, a ua oluolu ko'u hiamoe ana ia'u.
27 [Then] Yahweh said [to me], “There will be a time when I will greatly increase [MET] the number of people and the number of livestock here in Israel and Judah.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e lulu iho ai au i ka ohana a Iuda, i ka hua a ke kanaka a me ka hua a ka holoholona.
28 [Previously], I caused [their enemies to] remove the people from their land and to destroy their land and to cause them to experience many disasters [DOU]. But in the future, I will enable them to build houses and to plant crops [here in Israel again]. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.
A e like no me ka'u i kiai iho ai maluna o lakou, e uhuki ae, a e uhai iho, a e hoohiolo, a e luku, a e hoopilikia; pela no hoi au e kiai ai maluna iho, e kukulu, a e kanu, wahi a Iehova.
29 [Previously the people often said, ] ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, but it is the children’s teeth that ache.’ [They meant that it was not fair for them to be punished for their ancestors’ sins]. But [when I bring them back to their land], they will no longer say that.
Ia mau la la, aole lakou e olelo hou ae, Ua ai na makuakane i ka huawaina awahia, a ua oi na niho o na keiki.
30 But now all people will die because of the sins that they themselves have committed.
Aka, e make auanei kela mea keia mea no kona hewa iho: o kela kanaka keia kanaka e ai ana i ka huawaina awahia, o kona mau niho no ke oi.
31 [I], Yahweh, say this: ‘There will be a time when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and Judah.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e hana aku ai au i berita hou me ka ohana a Iseraela, a me ka ohana a Iuda:
32 [This new agreement will] not be like the agreement that I made with their ancestors when I took them by their hands and led them out of Egypt. They broke that agreement, even though I [loved them like] [MET] husbands love their wives.’
Aole e like ana me ka berita a'u i hana aku ai me ko lakou poe makaukane, i ka la a'u i lalau aku ai ia lakou ma ka lima, e lawe ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai; o ua berita la a'u ka lakou i uhai ai, ia'u i noho ai he Kane na lakou, wahi a Iehova:
33 This is what I, Yahweh, say: ‘This is the new agreement that I will make with the people of Israel some day: I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their inner beings. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Aka, o keia ka berita a'u e hana'i me ka ohana a Iseraela; Mahope iho o ia mau la, wahi a Iehova, e kau no wau i ko'u kanawai maloko o lakou, a e kakau iho ma ko lakou naau; a owau auanei ko lakou Akua, a o lakou hoi ko'u poe kanaka.
34 And it will not be [necessary] for them to teach their neighbors or their relatives and say, “[You need to] know Yahweh,” because everyone, including unimportant people and very important people, will [already] know me. And I will forgive them for having been very wicked, and I will never think again about the sins that they have committed.’”
Aole lakou e ao hou aku o kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna, a o kela mea keia mea i kona hoahanau, e olelo ana, E ike ia Iehova; no ka mea, e ike auanei lakou a pau ia'u, mai ka mea liilii loa o lakou a hiki i ko lakou mea nui loa, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, e kala aku auanei au i ko lakou hala, aole hoi au e hoomanao hou aku i ko lakou hewa.
35 Yahweh is the one who causes the sun to give light during the day, and who causes the moon and the stars to give light during the night. He stirs up the seas, with the result that waves roar. His name is the Commander of the armies of angels, and this is what he says:
Penei ka olelo a Iehova, a ka mea haawi mai i ka la i lama no ke ao, a me na kanawai no ka mahina a me na hoku ma ka po, o ka mea hoaleale hoi i ke kai a halulu kona mau ale; o Iehova Sabaota kona inoa.
36 “I will not reject my Israeli people any more than I will get rid of the laws [that control the universe].
Ina e neenee aku keia mau kanawai mai ko'u alo aku, wahi a Iehova, alaila e pau auanei na mamo a Iseraela, aole ia he lahuikanaka imua o'u, a mau loa aku.
37 And this is what I say: ‘No one can measure the sky, and no one can find out what is supporting the earth. Similarly, I cannot reject forever the descendants of Jacob because of all the [evil] things that they have done.’ [That is certain, because] I, Yahweh, have said it!
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Ina e hiki ke anaia ka lani iluna, a e huliia hoi na kumu o ka honua ilalo, alaila, e haalele no au i na mamo a pau o ka Iseraela, no na mea a pau a lakou i hana'i, wahi a Iehova.
38 [I], Yahweh, also say that there will be a time when [everything in] Jerusalem will be rebuilt for me, from the tower of Hananel [at the northeast corner, west] to [the gate named] the Corner Gate.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e kukuluia'i ke kulanakauhale no Iehova, mai ka halekiai o Hananeela a hiki i ka pukapa o ke kihi.
39 [Workers] will stretch a measuring line/string over Gareb Hill all the way [southwest] to Goah.
A e hele aku ke kaula-ana ma o aku maluna o ka puu Gareba, a e poai mai i Goata.
40 And the whole area, including the place where corpses and ashes are thrown in the [Kidron] Valley, and all the fields to the east as far as the Horse Gate, will become set apart for me. And the city [of Jerusalem] will never again be captured or destroyed.”
A o ke awawa a pau o na kupapau, a o ka lehuahi, a o na kula a pau a hiki i kahawai o Kiderona, a hiki i ka puka lio ma ka hikina, e laa ia no Iehova; aole ia e uhuki hou ia, aole hoi e hoohiolo hou ia a mau loa aku.
