< Jeremiah 19 >
1 Thus said the LORD, “Go, and buy a potter’s earthen container, and take some of the elders of the people and of the elders of the priests;
KE olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, O hele e kii aku i hue lepo o ka potera, a i poe kahiko o na kanaka, a i poe kahiko o na kahuna;
2 and go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the gate Harsith, and proclaim there the words that I will tell you.
A e hele aku i ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, aia no ia ma kahi e komo ai i ka puka hikina: a e kala aku oe malaila, i na olelo a'u e hai aku ai ia oe;
3 Say, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Behold, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears, his ears will tingle.
E i aku, E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema. Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela: Aia hoi, e lawe mai no wau i ka hewa maluna o keia wahi; e kani no na pepeiao o na mea a pau e lohe ia mea.
4 Because they have forsaken me, and have defiled this place, and have burnt incense in it to other gods that they didn’t know—they, their fathers, and the kings of Judah—and have filled this place with the blood of innocents,
No ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia'u, a ua hoowahawaha i keia wahi, a ua kuni i ka mea aia malaila, no na akua e, i na mea ike ole ia e lakou, a me ko lakou mau makua, a me na'lii o ka Iuda, a ua hoopiha lakou i keia wahi, i ke koko o ka poe hewa ole.
5 and have built the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I didn’t command, nor speak, which didn’t even enter into my mind.
Ua hana hoi lakou i na wahi kiekie o Baala, e puhi i ka lakou keikikane i ke ahi, i mohai kuni no Baala, ka mea a'u i kauoha ole ai, aole hoi i olelo, aole hoi i komo ia iloko o ko'u naau.
6 Therefore, behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that this place will no more be called ‘Topheth’, nor ‘The Valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’.
Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e kapa hou ole ia'i keia wahi o Topeta, aole hoi ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, aka, o ke awawa o ka pepehi.
7 “‘“I will make the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem void in this place. I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. I will give their dead bodies to be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
A e hooki aku au ma keia wahi i ka manao akamai o ka Iuda, a me Ierusalema; a na'u no lakou e hoohina i ka pahikaua, imua o ko lakou poe enemi, a i ka lima hoi oka poe i imi i ko lakou ola. A e haawi no wau i ko lakou kupapau i mea ai, na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua.
8 I will make this city an astonishment and a hissing. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues.
A e hoolilo wau i keia kulanakauhale i neoneo, a i mea hoowahawaha; o na mea a pau e hele ae, e kahaha no lakou, a e hoowahawaha mai no kona wawahiia a pau.
9 I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters. They will each eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and in the distress with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, will distress them.”’
A na'u no e hanai aku ia lakou i ka io o ka lakou mau keikikane, a me ka io o ka lakou mau kaikamahine, a e ai no kela mea keia mea i ka io o kona hoalauna maloko o ka ikiiki, a me ka pilikia o ko lakou poe enemi, a me ka poe i imi i ko lakou ola, e hoopilikia mai ai ia lakou.
10 “Then you shall break the container in the sight of the men who go with you,
Alaila, e wawahi oe i ka hue imua o na maka o na kanaka i hele pu me oe;
11 and shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Armies says: “Even so I will break this people and this city as one breaks a potter’s vessel, that can’t be made whole again. They will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.
A e i aku oe ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei, Pela no wau e wawahi ai i keia poe kanaka, a me keia kulanakauhale, e like me ka wawahiia o ka ipu a ka potera, ka mea hiki ole ke kapili hou ia; a e kanu no hoi lakou ma Topeta, a e kaanwale ole kahi e kanu ai.
12 This is what I will do to this place,” says the LORD, “and to its inhabitants, even making this city as Topheth.
Pela no wau e hana'i i keia wahi, wahi a Iehova, a i kona poe e noho ana, a e hoohalike i keia kulanakauhale me Topeta.
13 The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, will be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burnt incense to all the army of the sky and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.”’”
A o na hale o Ierusalema, a me na hale o na'lii o ka Iuda, e haumia auanei lakou, e like me kahi o Topeta, no ka mea, maluna o na hale a pau, ua puhi lakou i ka mea ala, no na hoku a pau o ka lani, a ua ninini aku i na mohaiinu no na akua e.
14 Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the court of the LORD’s house, and said to all the people:
Alaila, hele mai la o Ieremia, mai Topeta mai, kahi a Iehova i hoouna aku ai ia ia e wanana; a ku mai la oia ma ke kahua o ka hale o Iehova, a i mai la i na kanaka a pau,
15 “The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, ‘Behold, I will bring on this city and on all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have made their neck stiff, that they may not hear my words.’”
Ke i mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, Aia hoi, e lawe mai no wau maluna o keia kulanakauhale, a maluna o kona mau kauhale a pau, i ka hewa a pau a'u i hai aku ai nona; no ka mea, ua hoopaakiki lakou i ko lakou a-i, i mea e hoolohe ole ai lakou i ka'u mau olelo.
