Ieremia 17
1 U A palapalaia ka hewa o ka Iuda, me ka peni hao, me kahi oi hoi o ka daimana; ua kahakahaia hoi ma ka papa o ko lakou naau, a ma na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu;
“The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond. It is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars.
2 I ka hoomanao ana o ka lakou keiki i ko lakou kuahu, a me ko lakou ululaau ma na laau uliuli maluna o na puu kiekie.
Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles by the green trees on the high hills.
3 E kuu mauna ma ke kula, e haawi no wau i kou waiwai, a me kou ukana a pau i pio, a me kou mau wahi kiekie i hewa, ma kou mau mokuna a pau.
My mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures for a plunder, and your high places, because of sin, throughout all your borders.
4 A o oe, e hele aku no oe, mai kou hooilina aku, ka mea a'u i haawi aku ai ia oe; a e hoolilo aku au ia oe i kauwa na kou poe enemi ma ka aina au i ike ole ai: no ka mea, ua hoa oukou i ke ahi ma kuu ukiuki, a e a mau loa aku no ia.
You, even of yourself, will discontinue from your heritage that I gave you. I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you don’t know, for you have kindled a fire in my anger which will burn forever.”
5 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E poino ana ke kanaka i hilinai i ke kanaka, a manao iho la i ka io i ikaika nona, a haalele kona naau ia Iehova.
Yahweh says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, relies on strength of flesh, and whose heart departs from Yahweh.
6 E like auanei ia me kahi i haaleleia maloko o ka waonahele, aole ia e ike i ka wa e hiki mai ai ka maikai; aka, e noho no oia ma na wahi maloo ma ka waonahele, ma ka aina hua ole, a noho ole ia.
For he will be like a bush in the desert, and will not see when good comes, but will inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, an uninhabited salt land.
7 Pomaikai ke kanaka i hilinai aku ia Iehova, a o Iehova hoi kona mea e manaolana'i.
“Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose confidence is in Yahweh.
8 E like auanei ia me ka laau i kanuia ma na wai, a kupu ae la kona mau aa ma kahi mau; aole hoi ia e ike i ka hiki ana mai o ka wela; aka, e uliuli no kona lau; a i ka makahiki wi, aole ia e makau, aole hoi e hooki oia i ka hoohua ana mai i ka hua.
For he will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green, and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit.
9 He hoopunipuni ka naau mamua o na mea a pau, a ua hewa loa hoi ia; owai ka mea hiki ke hoomaopopo?
The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?
10 Owau, o Iehova, ke huli nei au i ka naau, ke hoao nei au i ka opu, e haawi i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona mau aoao, e like hoi me ka hua o kana mau hana.
“I, Yahweh, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”
11 E like me ka manu aihue i hoopunana i na hua ana i hanau ole ai; pela no ka mea i loaa ka waiwai ma ka pono ole, iwaenakonu o kona mau la, e waiho oia ia mea, a i kona hope, e lapuwale oia.
As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the middle of his days, they will leave him. At his end, he will be a fool.
12 He nohoalii nani kiekie loa, mai kinohi mai, oia kahi o ko makou keenakapu.
A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
13 E Iehova, ka mea e manaolana'i o ka Iseraela, o ka poe a pau e haalele ia oe, e hilahila auanei lakou, a o ka poe e haalele ia'u, e kahakahaia lakou ma ka honua, no ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia Iehova, i ke kumu o na wai ola.
Yahweh, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you will be disappointed. Those who depart from me will be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Yahweh, the spring of living waters.
14 E hoola mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, a e hoolaia mai no wau; e hoopakele mai oe ia'u a e hoopakeleia mai no wau; no ka mea, o oe no ka'u e kaena ai.
Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise.
15 Aia hoi, ke olelo mai nei lakou ia'u, Auhea ka olelo a Iehova? E hele mai ia, ano.
Behold, they ask me, “Where is Yahweh’s word? Let it be fulfilled now.”
16 Aole au i hoolalelale ia'u iho mai ka noho kahuhipa ana, e hahai mamuli ou, aole hoi au i makemake ia la kaumaha, ua ike no oe. O ka mea i puka aku iwaho o ko'u mau lehelehe, ua pololei no ia imua ou.
As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you. I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know. That which came out of my lips was before your face.
17 Mai lilo oe i mea makau no'u; o oe no ko'u mea e manaolana'i, i ka la o ka hewa.
Don’t be a terror to me. You are my refuge in the day of evil.
18 E hoohilahilaia ka poe hoomaau mai ia'u, mai hookuu ia'u i ka hoohilahilaia. E hoopilihua ia lakou, mai hookuu ia'u i ka hoopilihuaia. E lawe mai oe maluna o lakou i ka la o ka hewa, a e luku hoi oe ia lakou i ka luku papalua.
Let them be disappointed who persecute me, but don’t let me be disappointed. Let them be dismayed, but don’t let me be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ia'u penei, O hele, e ku ma ka pukapa o na keiki a ko'u poe kanaka, kahi e komo mai ai na'lii o ka Iuda, ma kahi hoi e puka aku ai lakou iwaho, a ma na pukapa a pau hoi o Ierusalema;
Yahweh said this to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
20 A e i aku ia lakou, E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka Iuda a pau, a me ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema, ka poe komo iloko, ma keia mau pukapa.
Tell them, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, you kings of Judah, all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E malama oukou i ko oukou kino iho; mai halihali oukou i ka mea halihali i ka la Sabati, aole hoi e lawe mai iloko, ma na pukapa o Ierusalema.
Yahweh says, “Be careful, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
22 Mai lawe aku hoi i ka haawe mawaho aku o ko oukou mau hale i ka la Sabati; mai hana hoi i kekahi hana; aka, e hoano oukou i ka la Sabati, me au i kauoha aku ai i ko oukou poe kupuna.
Don’t carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day. Don’t do any work, but make the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.
23 Aole lakou i hoolohe, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou mau pepeiao, aka, hooolea lakou i ko lakou a-i i mea e lohe ole ai lakou, i mea hoi, e loaa ole ai ia lakou ka naauao.
But they didn’t listen. They didn’t turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
24 A ina e hoolohe pono mai oukou ia'u, wahi a Iehova, a lawe ole i ka mea lawe maloko o na pukapa o ke kulanakauhale i ka la Sabati: aka, hoano oukou i ka la Sabati, a hana ole i kekahi hana ia la;
It will happen, if you diligently listen to me,” says Yahweh, “to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but to make the Sabbath day holy, to do no work therein;
25 Alaila, e komo mai no iloko o na pukapa o keia kulanakauhale, na'lii, a me na luna, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii o Davida, e holo ana hoi maloko o na halekaa, a maluna o na lio, o lakou, a me ko lakou luna, o na kanaka o ka Iuda, a me ka poe noho ma Ierusalema; a e hoomau loa ia aku no keia kulanakauhale.
then there will enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on David’s throne, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city will remain forever.
26 A e hele mai no lakou, mai na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda mai, a no na wahi mawaho o Ierusalema a puni, a mai ka aina o Beniamina mai, a mai na papu mai, a mai na mauna mai, a mai ke kukuluhema mai, e lawe ana i na mohnikuni, a me na alana, a me na mohai makana, a me ka mea ala, e lawe ana hoi i na mea aloha, a i ka hale o Iehova.
They will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the lowland, from the hill country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to Yahweh’s house.
27 Aka, ina aole oukou e hoolohe mai ia'u, e hoano i ka la Sabati, a e lawe ole hoi i ka mea lawe, e komo ana hoi iloko ma na pukapa o Ierusalema i ka la Sabati; alaila, e hoa no wau i ke ahi ma kona mau pukapa, a e hoopau no ia i na hale alii o Ierusalema, aole hoi ia e kinaiia.
But if you will not listen to me to make the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem. It will not be quenched.”’”
