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.
The LORD says, “Don’t learn the way of the nations, and don’t 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 ax.
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, so that it can’t 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 don’t speak. They must be carried, because they can’t move. Don’t 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 no one 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 shouldn’t fear you, King of the nations? For it belongs to you. Because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is no one 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, instructed by idols! It is just 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 engraver and of the hands of the goldsmith. Their clothing is blue and purple. 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. The nations aren’t 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 will 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.
God 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, the waters in the heavens roar, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain, and brings 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 will 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 maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance. The LORD of Armies 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 the LORD says, “Behold, 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 injury! My wound is serious; 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 has been destroyed, and all my cords are broken. My children have gone away from me, and they are no more. There is no one to spread my tent any more, 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 have become brutish, and have not inquired of the LORD. Therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks have 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, behold, 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 gently; not in your anger, lest you reduce 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 don’t know you, and on the families that don’t call on your name; for they have devoured Jacob. Yes, they have devoured him, consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.
