Ieremia 21
1 KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai i ka wa i hoouna aku ai o Zedekia, ke alii, io na la, ia Pasehura, ke keiki a Malekia, a me Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia, ke kahuna, i aku la,
THE WORD THAT CAME FROM THE LORD TO JEREMIAS, WHEN KING SEDEKIAS SENT TO HIM PASCHOR THE SON OF MELCHIAS, AND SOPHONIAS SON OF BASAEAS, THE PRIEST, SAYING,
2 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e noi aku ia Iehova no kakou; no ka mea, ke kaua mai nei o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona ia kakou; ina paha e hana mai o Iehova ia kakou, e like me kana hana kupanaha a pau, i pii aku ke alii o Babulona, mai o kakou aku.
Enquire of the Lord for us; for the king of Babylon has risen up against us; if the Lord will do according to all his wonderful works, and [the king] shall depart from us.
3 Alaila, olelo mai la o Ieremia ia lakou, Penei oukou e olelo aku ai ia Zedekia;
And Jeremias said to them, Thus shall ye say to Sedekias king of Juda,
4 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela peneia, Aia hoi, e hoihoi hope aku no au i na mea kaua, na mea maloko o ko oukou lima, na mea a oukou i kaua ai i ke alii o Babulona, a i ko Kaledea, ka poe hoopilikia mai ia oukou mawaho o na pa, a e hoiliili au ia mau mea maloko o keia kulanakauhale.
Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] turn back the weapons of war wherewith ye fight against the Chaldeans that have besieged you from outside the wall, and I will gather them into the midst of this city.
5 A owau no kekahi e kaua aku ia oe, me ka lima kakauha, a me ka lima ikaika, me ka huhu no, a me ka inaina, a me ka ukiuki loa.
And I will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, with wrath and great anger.
6 A e hahau no wau i ka poe noho ma keia kulauakauhale, i kanaka, a me na holoholona; a e make no lakou i ka mai ahulau nui.
And I will smite all the dwellers in this city, [both] men and cattle, with grievous pestilence: and they shall die.
7 A mahope iho, wahi a Iehova, e haawi no wau ia Zedekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda, a me kana poe kauwa, a me kona poe kanaka, na mea o keia kulanakauhale i koe i ke ahulau, a me ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, o ke alii o Babulona, a iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe imi i ko lakou ola; a e hahau mai no oia ia lakou i ka maka o ka pahikaua. Aole ia e hookoe ia lakou, aole e aloha mai, aole hoi e lokomaikai mai.
And after this, thus saith the Lord; I will give Sedekias king of Juda, and his servants, and the people that is left in this city from the pestilence, and from the famine, and from the sword, into the hands of their enemies, that seek their lives: and they shall cut them in pieces with the edge of the sword: I will not spare them, and I will not have compassion upon them.
8 Ae olelo aku oe i keia poe kanaka, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, ke kau nei au imua o oukou i ka aoao o ke ola, a me ka aoao o ka make.
And thou shalt say to this people, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I have set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
9 O ka mea e noho ma keia kulanakauhale, e make no ia i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau; aka, o ka mea puka aku iwaho, a haule aku i ko Kaledea, ka poe e hoopilikia ana ia oukou, e ola no ia, a e koe no kona ola i waiwaipio nona iho.
He that remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by famine: but he that goes forth to advance to the Chaldeans that have besieged you, shall live, and his life shall be to him for a spoil, and he shall live.
10 No ka mea, ua hooku e au i ko'u maka i keia kulanakauhale, ma ka hewa, aole ma ka maikai, wahi a Iehova; a e haawiia ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e puhi oia i keia wahi i ke ahi.
For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good: it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall consume it with fire.
11 E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, no ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda.
O house of the king of Juda, hear ye the word of the Lord.
12 E ko ka hale o Davida, ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, E hana oukou i ka hooponopono i kakahiaka, a e hoopakele i ka mea i haoia, mai ka lima aku o ka mea hookaumaha, o puka aku ko'u ukiuki, e like me ke ahi, a e a hoi, aole mea e hiki ia ia ke kinai, no ka hewa o ka oukou hana ana.
O house of David, thus saith the Lord; Judge judgment in the morning, and act rightly, and rescue the spoiled one from the hand of him that wrongs him, lest mine anger be kindled like fire, and it burn, and there be none to quench [it].
13 Aia hoi, ua ku e no wau ia oe, e ka mea noho ma ke awawa, a ma ka pohaku o ka papu hoi, wahi a Iehova, ka poe olelo, Owai la ka mea iho ilalo e ku e ia makou? Owai la ka mea e komo iloko o ko makou wahi noho ai?
Behold, I am against thee that dwellest in the valley of Sor; in the plain country, [even against] them that say, Who shall alarm us? or who shall enter into our habitation?
14 Aka, e hoopai aku au ia oukou, e like me ka hua o ka oukou hana ana, wahi a Iehova; a e puhi no wau i ke ahi iloko o kolaila ululaau, a e hoopau no ia i na mea a pau, a puni ia wahi.
And I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall devour all things round about it.
