Ieremia 20
1 A O Pasehura, ke keiki a Imera, ke kahuna, ka mea maluna o na luna maloko o ka hale o Iehova, lohe no oia, ua wanana o Ieremia i keia mau mea.
And Pashhur, the son of Immer, the priest who had been appointed leader in the house of the Lord, heard Jeremiah prophesying these words.
2 Alaila, hahau o Pasehura ia Ieremia, ke kaula, a hahao iho la ia ia iloko o kahi paa o na laau kupee, ma ka pukapa kiekie o Beniamina, o ka mea kokoke i ka hale o Iehova.
And Pashhur struck the prophet Jeremiah, and he sent him to the stocks, which were at the upper gate of Benjamin at the house of the Lord.
3 A ia la iho, lawe mai o Pasehura ia Ieremia mawaho o kahi paa o na laau kupee. Alaila, olelo ae la o Ieremia ia ia, Aole i kapa mai o Iehova i kou inoa, o Pasehura, aka, o Magoramisabiba.
And when it had become light on the next day, Pashhur led Jeremiah from the stocks. And Jeremiah said to him: “The Lord has not called your name: ‘Pashhur,’ but instead: ‘Fear all around.’”
4 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Aia hoi, e hoolilo no wau ia oe i mea makau wale nou iho, a no kou poe hoahanau a pau; a e haule no lakou i ka pahikaua o ko lakou poe enemi, a e ike no kou mau maka; a e haawi no wau i ka Iuda a pau iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e lawepio no oia ia lakou i Babulona, a luku no oia ia lakou i ka pahikaua.
For thus says the Lord: “Behold, I will give you over to fear, you and all your friends, and they will fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes will see it. And I will give all of Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon. And he will lead them away to Babylon, and he will strike them with the sword.
5 A e haawi no wau i ka ikaika a pau o keia kulanakauhale, a me kana hana a pau, a me kona mau mea maikai a pau, a o ka waiwai a pau o na'lii o ka Iuda ka'u e haawi aku ai iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, na mea e hao i ka lakou, a lawepio ia lakou, a e lawe aku keia poe ia lakou i Babulona.
And I will give away the entire substance of this city, and all its labor, and every precious thing. And I will give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hands of their enemies. And they will plunder them, and take them away, and lead them into Babylon.
6 A o oe, e Pasehura, a me ka poe a pau e noho la ma kou hale, e hele no iloko o ke pio; a e hiki no oe i Babulona, a malaila oe e make ai, a malaila oe e kanuia'i, o oe, a me kou mau makamaka a pau, ka poe au i wanana aku ai ma ka wahahee.
But you, Pashhur, and all the inhabitants of your house, will go into captivity. And you will go to Babylon. And there you shall die. And there you shall be buried, you and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied a lie.”
7 E Iehova, ua hoowalewale mai oe ia'u, a ua walewale au; ua oi aku kou ikaika i ko'u, a ua lanakila oe; he mea akaaka wau i na la a pau, henehene mai no na mea a pau ia'u.
“You have led me away, O Lord, and I have been led away. You have been stronger than I, and you have prevailed. I have become a derision all day long; everyone mocks me.
8 No ka mea, i ka wa a'u i olelo ai, uwe aku la au, a kahea aku la no hoi, he kaili wale, a me ka hao ana; no ka mea, lilo no ka olelo a Iehova, i mea e heneheneia mai ai, a i mea hoi e hoowahawahaia mai ai au i na la a pau.
For I speak now as I have long spoken: crying out against iniquity and proclaiming devastation. And the word of the Lord has been made into a reproach against me and a derision, all day long.
9 Alaila, olelo iho la au, Aole au e hoomanao hou ia ia, aole hoi e olelo hou ma kona inoa; aka, ua like ia iloko o ko'u naau, me ke ahi e a ana, a paniia hoi iloko o ko'u mau iwi; a ikiiki au i ka hoomanawanui ana, aole hoi i hiki ia'u.
Then I said: I will not call him to mind, nor will I speak any longer in his name. And my heart became like a raging fire, enclosed within my bones. And I became weary of continuing to bear it.
10 Lohe no wau i ka hoowahawaha ana o na mea he nui, he makau no ma na aoao a pau. E hai aku oe, a e hai aku no makou ia, wahi a lakou. Ua hoomakakiu mai ko'u poe makamaka a pau i ko'u haule ana, me ka manao iho, E hoowalewaleia paha oia, a lanakila kakou maluna ona, a e hoopai aku kakou ia ia no kakou.
For I heard the insults of many, and terror all around: ‘Persecute him!’ and, ‘Let us persecute him!’ from all the men who had been at peace with me and who had kept watch by my side. ‘If only there were some way that he might be deceived, and we might prevail against him and obtain vengeance from him!’
11 Aka, o Iehova pu no me au, e like me ka mea mana a weliweli; nolaila e hina'i ka poe hoomaau mai ia'u, aole lakou e lanakila: e hilahila loa auanei lakou, no ka mea, aole lakou e pomaikai. Aole e poinaia ko lakou hilahila mau loa.
But the Lord is with me, like a strong warrior. For this reason, those who persecute me will fall, and they will be ineffective. They will be greatly confounded. For they have not understood the everlasting disgrace that will never be wiped away.
12 Aka, o oe, e Iehova o na kaua, ka mea hoao mai i ka poe i pono, ka mea ike i ka opu, a me ka naau, e hoike mai oe ia'u i kou ukiuki ia lakou; no ka mea, ia oe no ko'u hoopii ana i ko'u pono.
And you, O Lord of hosts, the Tester of the just, who sees the temperament and the heart: I beg you to let me see your vengeance upon them. For I have revealed my case to you.
13 E oli aku ia Iehova, e hoomaikai ia Iehova, no ka mea, ua hoopakele oia i ka uhane o ka poe hune, mai ka lima aku o ka poe hana hewa.
Sing to the Lord! Praise the Lord! For he has freed the soul of the poor from the hand of the wicked.
14 E hoinoia ka la a'u i hanauia'i: Mai hoomaikaiia ka la a kuu makuwahine i hanau mai ai ia'u.
Cursed is the day on which I was born! The day on which my mother gave birth to me: let it not be blessed!
15 E hoinoia ke kanaka i hai aku i ko'u makuakane, me ka olelo aku, Ua hanauia mai he keikikane nau, a hoohauoli nui aku la ia ia.
Cursed is the man who announced it to my father, saying, ‘A male child has been born to you,’ causing him to rejoice with gladness.
16 E hoohalikeia keia kanaka me na kulanakauhale a Iehova i hoohiolo ai, a mihi ole hoi. I lohe oia i ka uwe ana i kakahiaka, a me ka hooho ana i ke awakea;
Let that man be like the cities that the Lord has overthrown without regret. Let him hear an outcry in the morning, and wailing at the time of midday!
17 No kona pepehi ole mai ia'u, mai ka opu mai, a lilo ole ko'u makuwahine i lua no'u, a mau loa aku ka nui ana o kona opu.
So let him be, who did not put me to death from the womb, so that my mother would have been my sepulcher, and her womb would have been my eternal resting place!
18 No keaha la wau i puka mai ai mawaho mai o ka opu, e ike i ka luhi, a me ke kaumaha, i hoopauia ko'u mau la i ka hilahila?
Why did I depart from the womb, so that I would see hardship and sorrow, and so that my days would be consumed by trouble?”
