< Ieremia 16 >

1 HIKI mai ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
2 Mai lawe oe i wahine nau, aole hoi e loaa ia oe na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine ma keia wahi.
Thou shalt not take thee a wife, and thou shalt not have sons nor daughters 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 Jehovah concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bear them, and concerning their fathers that beget 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 painful deaths; they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung upon the face of the ground, and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine, and their carcases shall be food for the fowl of the heavens and for the beasts of the earth.
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.
For thus saith Jehovah: Enter not into the house of wailing, neither go to lament or bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith Jehovah, the loving-kindness and the tender mercies.
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.
Both great and small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried; and none shall lament for them, or cut themselves, nor make themselves bald 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.
Nor shall they break [bread] for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall they give them the cup of consolations to drink for their father or for their mother.
8 Mai komo aku hoi oe iloko o ka hale ahaaina, e noho pu me lakou, e ai, a e inu.
And thou shalt not go into the house of feasting, 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 Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, 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 declare unto this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against us? and what is our iniquity? and what is our sin which we have committed against Jehovah 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 shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept 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 you, ye have done still worse than your fathers; and there ye are walking every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, not to hearken unto 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.
and I will cast you forth out of this land, into a land that ye know not, ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night: because I will shew you no favour.
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, days are coming, saith Jehovah, that it shall no more be said, [As] Jehovah liveth, who 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, [As] Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them. For I will bring them again into their land, which I gave unto 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 for many fishers, saith Jehovah, and they shall fish them; and afterwards will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them, from every mountain, and from 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; they are not concealed from my face, neither is their iniquity hidden from before 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.
But first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have profaned my land with the carcases of their detestable things, and with their abominations have they filled 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.
Jehovah, my strength and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of distress, unto thee shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and they shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited falsehood [and] vanity; and in these things there is no profit.
20 E hana anei ke kanaka i na akua nona, aole hoi lakou na akua?
Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they 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 this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Jehovah.
