< Ieremia 10 >

1 E HOOLOHE mai oukou i ka olelo a Iehova e olelo mai nei ia oukou, e ko ka hale o ka Iseraela.
Hear the word which the LORD speaks to you, house of Israel.
2 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei. Mai ao oukou i ka aoao o ko na aina e; a mai makau hoi oukou i na ouli o ka lani; no ka mea, ua makau ko na aina e ia lakou.
Thus says the LORD, "Do not learn the way of the nations, and do not be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them.
3 No ka mea, o na aoao o na kanaka, he lapuwale ia; no ka mea, kua no kekahi i ka laau ma ka ulu laau me ke koi lipi, o ka hana hoi a ka paahana.
For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe.
4 A kahiko no lakou ia mea i ke kala a me ke gula; hoopaa no lakou ia mea i ke kui hao, a me na hamare, i kulaualana ole ia.
They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it not move.
5 Ku pono no lakou, e like me ka laau pama, aole nae i olelo; he oiaio no, ua kaikaiia lakou, no ka mea, aole hiki ia lakou ke hele. Mai makau ia lakou, no ka mea, aole hiki ia lakou ke hana mai; i ka hewa, aole hoi iloko o lakou ke hana i ka maikai.
They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and do not speak: they must be carried, because they can't go. Do not be afraid of them; for they can't do evil, neither is it in them to do good."
6 Aohe mea like me oe, e Iehova: ua nui oe, ua kaulana hoi kou inoa no ka maua.
"There is none like you, LORD; you are great, and your name is great in might.
7 Owai ka mea makau ole ia oe e ke Alii o na ainai? No ka mea, ku pono ia ia oe; no ka mea, iwaena o ka poe akamai a pau o na aina, a iloko hoi o ko lakou aupuni a pau, aohe mea like me oe.
Who should not fear you, King of the nations? For it appertains to you; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like you.
8 Ua like io no lakou me na holoholona, ua lapuwale hoi; o ka naauuo o ka poe lapuwale, he pauku laau ia.
But they are together brutish and foolish, the instruction of idols. It is but wood.
9 Ua laweia mai na papa kala, mai Taresisa mai. a o ke gula hoi, mai Upaza mai, ka hana a ka paahana, a ka lima hoi o ka mea hoohehee kala. He poni uliuli, a he poni ulaula ko lakou lole; o ka hana hoi a ka poe akamai oia mau mea a pau.
There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the artificer and of the hands of the goldsmith; blue and purple for their clothing; they are all the work of skillful men.
10 Aka o Iehova no ke Akua oiaio, oia ke Akua ola, o ko alii mau loa hoi. E haalulu auanei ka honua i kona ukiuki, aole hoi e hiki i na lahuikanaka ke hoomanawanui i kona inaina.
But the LORD is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembles, and the nations are not able to withstand his indignation.
11 Penei oukou e olelo ai ia lakou, O na'kua i hana ole i na lani, a me ka honua, e make auanei lakou, mai ka honua aku, a mailalo aku hoi o keia mau lani.
You shall say this to them: 'The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.'
12 Ua hana no oia i ka honua i kona mana, a ua hookumu hoi i ke ao nei i kona akamai, a ua hoopalahalaha ae i na lani i kona naauao.
He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens:
13 I ka pane ana o kona leo, ua nui loa na wai ma na lani, oia hoi ka inea i pii aku ai ka mahu, mai na kukulu aku o ka honua; naua no i hana na uwila, a me ka ua, a hoopuka mai oia i ka makani, mai kona waihona mai.
when he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the farthest parts of the earth; he makes lightnings for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries.
14 Me he holoholona la kela kanaka, keia kanaka ma ka ike; hilahila hoi na mea hoohehee kala a pau no ke akuakii, no ka mea, he mea wahahee kona kii i hooheheeia, aohe hanu iloko o lakou.
Every man has become brutish and without knowledge; every goldsmith is disappointed by his engraved image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
15 He lapuwale lakou, he hana na ka wahahee; i ko lakou wa e hoopaiia mai ai, e make no lakou.
They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
16 Aole i like ka hooilina o Iakoba me lakou; no ka mea, nana no i hana na mea a pau; a o ka Iseraela hoi ke kookoo o koua hooilina; o Iehova o ua kaua kona inoa.
The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the LORD of hosts is his name."
17 E lawe nui i kou waiwai, mai ka aina aku, e ka mea noho ma ka pakaua.
'Gather up your wares out of the land, you who live under siege.
18 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aia hoi, e maa aku no wau i ka poe noho ma ka aina, i ka maa hookahi ana, a e hoopilikia ia lakou, a pela o loaa ia lakou.
For thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel it.'
19 Auwe au i kuu eha! ua nui loa ko'u hahauia, aka, i iho la au, He oiaio, he kaumaha keia, e hoomanawanui nae au ia.
Woe is me because of my hurt. My wound is grievous: but I said, 'Truly this is my grief, and I must bear it.'
20 Ua wawahiia ko'u halelewa, a ua moku hoi ko'u mau kaula a pau. Ua hele aku ka'u mau keiki, mai o'u aku nei, a ua ole lakou: aohe mea i koe nana e hohola hou i ko'u halelewa, a e kukulu i ko'u mau paku.
My tent is destroyed, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth from me, and they are no more: there is none to spread my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.
21 Ua lilo na kahu i mea e like me na holoholona, aole hoi i imi ia Iehova; nolaila, aole lakou e pomaikai; a e hoopuehu liilii ia ka lakou poe hipa a pau.
For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of the LORD: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.
22 Aia hoi, ua hiki mai ka leo o ka lono, he haunaele nui, mai ka aina akau mai, i mea e lilo ai na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda i neoneo, i noho ana hoi no na ilio hihiu.
The voice of news, look, it comes, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling place of jackals.
23 E Iehova, ua ike no au, aole iloko o ke kanaka kona aoao iho; aole no ke kanaka hele ke alakai i kona mau kapuwai iho.
LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
24 E Iehova, e paipai mai oe ia u, ma ka pono nae, aole ma kou ukiuki, o hooki loa mai oe ia'u.
LORD, correct me, but in measure: not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.
25 E ninini oe i kou ukiuki maluna o ko na aina e, ka poe ike ole ia oe, a maiuna o na ohana i hea ole i kou inoa; no ka mea, ua ai lakou ia Iakoba, a ua hoopau ia ia, a oki loa, a ua hooneoneo i kona wahi i noho ai.
Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not know you, and on the families that do not call on your name: for they have devoured Jacob, yes, they have devoured him and consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation."
