< Ieremia 16 >
1 HIKI mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And thou shalt not take a wife, saith the Lord God of Israel:
2 Mai lawe oe i wahine nau, aole hoi e loaa ia oe na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ma keia wahi.
and there shall be no son born to thee, nor daughter in this place.
3 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, no na keikikane, a no na kaikamahine i hanauia ma keia wahi, a no na makuwahine nana lakou i hanau, a no na makuakane nana lakou i ko ai ma keia aina.
For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that have born them, and concerning their fathers that have begotten them in this land;
4 E make mainoino lakou, aole lakou e kauikauia, aole hoi lakou e kanuia; aka, e lilo lakou i lepo maluna o ka aina; a e hoopauia no lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi; a e lilo ko lakou kupapau i mea ai na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua.
They shall die of grievous death; they shall not be lamented, nor buried; they shall be for an example on the face of the earth; and they shall be for the wild beasts of the land, and for the birds of the sky: they shall fall by the sword, and shall be consumed with famine.
5 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Mai komo maloko o ka hale kumakena, mai hele hoi e kanikau, a e uwe ia lakou; no ka mea, ua lawe aku au i ko'u malu, mai keia poe kanaka aku, wahi a Iehova, i ko'u aloha hoi, a me ko'u lokomaikai.
Thus saith the Lord, Enter not into their mourning feast, and go not to lament, and mourn not for them: for I have removed my peace from this people.
6 E make no ka poe nui, a me ka poe uuku ma keia aina; aole lakou e kanuia, aole e kumakena na kanaka no lakou, aole e okioki ia lakou iho, aole hoi e koli i ke oho no lakou.
They shall not bewail them, nor make cuttings for them, and they shall not shave themselves [for them]:
7 Aole e puunaue na kanaka i ka ai na lakou no ke kumakena, i mea e hoomaha ai ia lakou no ka make; aole hoi e hoohainu aku na kanaka ia lakou i ke kiaha o ka hooluolu no kona makuakane, a no kona makuwahine.
and there shall be no bread broken in mourning for them for consolation over the dead: they shall not give one to drink a cup for consolation over his father or his mother.
8 Mai komo aku hoi oe iloko o ka hale ahaaina, e noho pu me lakou, e ai, a e inu.
Thou shalt not enter into the banquet-house, to sit with them to eat and to drink.
9 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua, o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, imua o ko oukou mau maka, a i ko oukou mau la hoi, e hooki aku au mai keia wahi aku, i ka leo o ka olioli, a i ka leo o ka hauoli, i ka leo o ke kaue mare, a i ka leo o ka wahine mare.
For thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Behold, I [will] make to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
10 A hiki i ka manawa e hoike aku ai oe i keia poe kanaka i keia mau olelo a pau, a olelo mai lakou ia oe, No keaha la i kau oh a mai ai o Iehova i keia hewa nui maluna o makou? Heaha hoi ko makou hala; a heaha ka hewa a makou i hana aku ai ia Iehova, i ko makou Akua?
And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt report to this people all these words, and they shall say to thee, Wherefore has the Lord pronounced against us all these evils? what is our unrighteousness? and what is our sin which we have sinned before the Lord our God?
11 Alaila, e olelo aku oe ia lakou, No ka mea, ua haalele ko oukou poe makua ia'u, wahi a Iehova, a ua hele lakou mnmuli o na akua e, a ua malama ia lakou, a ua hoomana ia lakou, a ua haalele mai ia'u, aole hoi i malama i ko'u kanawai:
Then thou shalt say to them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and went after strange gods and served them, and worshipped them, and forsook me, and kept not my law;
12 A ua oi aku ka oukou hana ino ana mamua o ka ko oukou poe makua; no ka mea, aia hoi, ke hele nei kela mea keia mea o oukou mamuli o ka paakiki o kona naau hewa, i hoolohe ole mai ai lakou ia'u.
(and ye sinned worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the lusts of your own evil heart, so as not to hearken to me);
13 Nolaila, e kipaku aku au ia oukou mai keia aina aku, a i ka aina a oukou i ike ole ai, aole oukou, aole hoi ko oukou poe makua; a malaila oukou e malama'i i na akua e, i ke ao a me ka po, ma kahi e haawi ole aku ai au ia oukou i ke alohaia.
therefore I will cast you off from this good land into a land which neither ye nor your fathers have known; and ye shall serve their other gods, who shall have no mercy upon you.
14 Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, aole e olelo hou ia mai, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai:
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when they shall no more say, The Lord lives, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
15 Aka, Ke ola la no o Iehova, ka mea nana i lawe mai i na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o ke kukulu akau mai, a mai na aina a pau mai, kahi ana i kipaku aku ai ia lakou. A e lawe hou no wau ia lakou iloko o ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai i ko lakou poe kupuna.
but, The Lord lives, who brought up the house of Israel from the land of the north, and from all countries whither they were thrust out: and I will restore them to their own land, which I gave to their fathers.
16 Aia hoi, e kii aku no wau i na lawaia he nui, wahi a Iehova, a e loaa ia lakou na Iudaio ma ka lawaia ana; a mahope iho, e kii aku no wau i na mea imi a nui, a na lakou no e imi i na Iudaio, mai na mauna mai a pau, a mai na puu mai a pau, a mai na lua o na pohaku mai.
Behold, I [will] send many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send many hunters, and they shall hunt them upon every mountain, and upon every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
17 No ka mea, e kau no ko'u mau maka ma ko lakou aoao a pau; aole lakou e hoonaloia i ko'u maka, aole hoi e hoonaloia ko lakou hewa, mai ko'u mau maka aku.
For mine eyes are upon all their ways; and their iniquities have not been hidden from mine eyes.
18 A mamua, e hoopai papalua wau i ko lakou hewa, a me ko lakou hala; no ka mea, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko'u aina, a ua hoopiha i ko'u hooilina i na kii o ko lakou mea haumia, e hoopailua ai.
And I will recompense their mischiefs doubly, and their sins, whereby they have profaned my land with the carcases of their abominations, and with their iniquities, whereby they have trespassed against mine inheritance.
19 E Iehova, ko'u ikaika, ko'u pakaua hoi, a me ko'u puuhonua i ka la o ka popilikia, e hele mai no ko na aina e i ou la, mai na kukulu o ka honua mai, a e olelo mai, He oiaio, ua ili mai no ka hoopunipuni i ko makou poe makua, a me ka lapuwale, a me na mea waiwai ole.
O Lord, thou art my strength, and mine help, and my refuge in days of evil: to thee the Gentiles shall come from the end of the earth, and shall say, How vain [were the] idols [which] our fathers procured to themselves, and there is no help in them.
20 E hana anei ke kanaka i na akua nona, aole hoi lakou na akua?
Will a man make gods for himself, whereas these are no gods?
21 Nolaila, aia hoi, i keia manawa, e hoike maopopo loa aku au i ko'u lima ia lakou, a me ko'u mana; a e ike auanei lakou, o Iehova no ko'u inoa.
Therefore, behold, I will at this time manifest my hand to them, and will make known to them my power; and they shall know that my name is the Lord.
