Ieremia 12

1 PONO no oe, e Iehova, i ko'u wa e paio aku ai me oe; aka, e kamailio aku no au ia oe ma ka hooponopono ana. No ke aha la e pomaikai ai ka aoao o ka poe hewa? E maluhia anei ka poe hana ma ka wahahee nui loa?

“ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke angatonu, ʻo kau ka tāpafua kiate koe: tuku ke u lea kiate koe ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau: ko e hā ʻoku monūʻia ai ʻae hala ʻoe angahala? Ko e hā ʻoku fiefia lahi ai ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai kākā lahi?

2 Ua kauu no oe ia lakou, oia, ua kolo ko lakou aa; ke ulu nei no lakou, oia, ke hua mai nei lakou i ka hua; ua kokoke no oe i ko lakou waha, ua loihi aku nae mai ko lakou naau aku.

Kuo ke tō ʻakinautolu, pea kuo nau aka: ʻoku nau tupu, ʻio, ʻoku nau fua; ʻoku ke ofi ʻi honau ngutu, kae mamaʻo ʻi honau loto.

3 Aka, o oe e Iehova, ke ike mai nei no oe ia'u; ua nana mai no oe ia'u, ua hoao mai oe i ko'u naau ma ou la. E hookaawale oe ia lakou, e like me na hipa no ke kaluaia, a e hoomakaukau hoi ia lakou no ka la o ka pepehi ana.

Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi au; kuo ke ʻafioʻi au, pea ʻahiʻahi hoku loto kiate koe: toho kituaʻā kinautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ke tāmateʻi, pea teuteu ʻakinautolu ki he ʻaho ʻoe tāmateʻi.

4 Pehea la ka loihi o ke kumakena ana o ka aina, a me ka mae wale ana o na laalaau o ke kula, no ka hewa o ka poe e noho ana maloko? Ua laweia'ku na holoholona, a me na manu; no ka mea, olelo no lakou, Aole ia e ike mai i ko makou hopena.

‌ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe tangi ʻae kelekele, pea mae ʻae mohuku ʻoe ngoue, koeʻuhi ko e angahala ʻanautolu ʻoku nofo ai? Kuo fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi manu veʻe fā, mo e ngaahi manupuna; koeʻuhi naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi hotau ikuʻanga.’”

5 Ina i holo pu oe me ka poe hele wawae, a ua hoomaloeloe mai lakou ia oe, pehea la e hiki ai ia oe ke kukini me na lio? A ina hilinai oe ma ka aina malu, pehea la oe e hana'i maloko o ka nani o Ioredane?

“Kapau kuo ke lele mo e kau tangata, pea kuo nau fakaongosiaʻi koe, te ke fakapuepue fēfē mo e fanga hoosi? Pea kapau kuo nau fakaongosiaʻi koe ʻi he fonua fiemālie, ʻaia naʻa ke falala ki ai, ko e hā te ke fai ʻi he lōmaki mai ʻa Sioatani?

6 No ka mea, o kou poe hoahanau, o ko ka hale o kou makuakane, oia, ua hana hoopunipuni mai iakou ia oe; a ua hea aku mamuli ou me ka leo nui; mai manaoio aku ia lakou, ina paha lakou e olelo mai i na olelo malimali ia oe.

He ko ho kāinga, mo e fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻio, naʻa mo kinautolu kuo nau fai kākā kiate koe; kuo nau kalanga mo tuli kiate koe: kaeʻoua naʻa ke tui kiate kinautolu ʻi heʻenau lea fakafiemālie kiate koe.”

7 Ua haalele au i ko'u hale, a ua waiho aku au i ko'u aina hooili: a ua haawi aku hoi au i ka mea a kuu uhane i aloha nui ai iloko o ka lima o kona poe enemi.

“Kuo u liʻaki hoku fale, kuo u tukuange hoku tofiʻa; kuo u tuku ki he nima ʻo hono ngaahi fili ʻaia naʻe ʻofa ki ai hoku laumālie.

8 Ua like ko'u aina hooili ia'u me ka liona iloko o ka ululaau. Uwo ku e mai oia ia'u. Nolaila i ukiuki aku ai au ia ia.

Ko hoku tofiʻa ʻoku hangē ko e laione ʻi he vao kiate au; ʻoku ne kalou mai kiate au: ko ia ʻoku ou fehiʻa ai kiate ia.

9 He hiena hae ko'u aina hooili ia'u; a hae mai ia ia na mea a pau e puni ana. E hele mai oukou, e akoakoa mai, e na holoholona a pau o ke kula, no ka ai aku.

Ko hoku tofiʻa ʻoku hangē ko e manupuna ʻoku pulepule hono fulufulu, ʻoku tauʻi ia ʻe he manupuna kotoa pē; haʻu ʻakimoutolu ʻae fanga manu ʻoe vao, ke mou fakataha mai ʻo kai.

10 Ua nui na kahu i anai aku i ko'u pawaina. ua hahi lakou i ko'u aina, ua hoolilo lakou i ko'u wahi maikai, i waonahele neoneo.

Kuo maumauʻi ʻeku ngoue vaine ʻe he kau tauhi tokolahi, kuo nau malamalaki ʻa hoku ʻapi, kuo nau ngaohi hoku tofiʻa lelei ko e vao lala.

11 Ua anai lakou ia wahi, a no kona neoneo, ua uwe mai oia ia'u; au anaiia ka aina a pau, no ka mea, aohe kanaka i manao ma ka naau.

Kuo nau fakalala ia, pea ʻi heʻene lala ʻoku ne tangi kiate au; kuo fakalala ʻae fonua kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ki ai ʻe ha tangata.

12 Ua hiki mai ka poe luku maluna o na wahi kiekie a pau o ka waonahele; no ka mea, e luku aku no ka pahikaua o Iehova, mai kekahi kukulu o ka aina a i kekahi kukulu o ka aina; aohe io e maluhia ana.

Kuo haʻu ʻae kau fakaʻauha ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga kotoa pē ʻi he toafa: koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻa Sihova mei he ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe fonua, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe fonua: pea ʻe ʻikai ha fiemālie ki ha taha.

13 Ua lulu lakou i ka hua palaoa, aka, e hooiliili no lakou i kakalaioa. Ua hoeha lakou ia lakou iho, aole nae ia he mea e pomaikai ai: a e hilahila auanei lakou i na mea i loaa'i ia oukou, no ko Iehova huhu nui.

Kuo nau tūtuuʻi ʻae uite, ka te nau utu ʻae ʻakau talatala: ʻoku nau feinga, ka ʻe ʻikai ʻaonga ia kiate kinautolu: pea te mou mā ʻi hoʻomou koloa, koeʻuhi ko e houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.”

14 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, no ko'u poe hoalauna hewa, ka poe i pa mai i ka hooilina a'u i, hooili aku ai na ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, e lawe no wau ia lakou, mai ko lakou aina aku, a e lawe aku hoi au i ko ka hale o Iuda, mai waena aku o lakou.

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Ki hoku kaungāʻapi kovi kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ala ki he tofiʻa kuo u fakanofo ai ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli; vakai te u taʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻi honau fonua, pea taʻaki ʻae fale ʻo Siuta ʻiate kinautolu.

15 A mahope iho o ko'u lawe ana aku ia lakou, alaila, e hoi hou no wau, a e aloha aku ia lakou, a e hoihoi hou mai ia lakou i kela kanaka, i keia kanaka i kona aina hooili, a i kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aina iho.

Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻeku taʻaki ʻakinautolu, te u foki pea ʻaloʻofa kiate kinautolu, pea te u toe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ko e tangata taki taha ki hono ʻapi, pea ko e tangata taki taha ki hono fonua.

16 A e hiki mai no hoi keia, ina e ao ikaika lakou i na aoao o ko'u poe kanaka, e hoohiki ma ko'u inoa, Ke ola la no o Iehova; e like me lakou i ao ai i ko'u poe kanaka e hoohiki ma Baala; alaila, e kukulu hou ia lakou iwaenakonu o ko'u poe kanaka.

Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau te nau hangahanga ako ki he ngaahi hala ʻo hoku kakai, ke fuakava ʻi hoku huafa, ‘ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova;’ ʻo hangē ko ʻenau ako ki hoku kakai ke fuakava kia Peali; pehē ʻe langa hake ʻakinautolu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai.”

17 Aka, ina aole lakou e malama mai, alaila, e uhuki loa wau, a e anai loa aku i kela lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova.

Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau talangofua, te u taʻaki moʻoni pea fakaʻauha ʻae puleʻanga ko ia.”
