Ieremia 27
1 I KA makamua o ke au ia Zede kia, ke keiki a Iosia, ke alii o ka Iuda, hiki mai la ka olelo io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i mai la,
At the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD.
2 Ke i mai nei o Iehova ia'u penei; E hana oe nou i mau kupee, a i mau auamo, a e kau ia mau mea maluna o kou a-i.
This is what the LORD said to me: “Make for yourself a yoke out of leather straps and put it on your neck.
3 A e hoouka aku ia mau mea i ke alii o Edoma, a i ke alii o Moaba, a i ke alii o ka Amona, a i ke alii o Turo, a i ke alii o Zidona, ma ka lima o na elele i hele mai i Ierusalema io Zedekia la, ke alii o ka Iuda:
Send word to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon through the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
4 A e kauoha aku ia lakou e olelo i ko lakou mau haku, Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; E olelo oukou i ko oukou poe haku penei;
Give them a message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:
5 Na'u no i hana ka honua, ke kanaka, a me na holoholona maluna o ka aina, i ko'u mana nui, a i ko'u lima kakauka, a ua haawi hoi ia i ka mea a'u i manao makemake ai.
By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
6 Ano hoi, ua haawi aku au i keia mau aina a pau iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, i kuu kauwa; a ua haawi hoi au ia ia i na holoholona o ke kula e hookauwa nana.
So now I have placed all these lands under the authority of My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. I have even made the beasts of the field subject to him.
7 A e hookauwa ko na aina a pau nana, a na kana keiki, a na ke keiki a kana keiki, a hiki wale mai ka manawa o na aina: alaila, e hookauwa aku oia na ko na aina he nui, a na na'lii kaulana.
All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.
8 A o ka aina auanei, a me ke aupuni e hookauwa ole na ua Nebukaneza la, na ke alii o Babulona, a haawi ole hoi i ko lakou a-i malalo o ka auamo o ke alii o Babulona, e hoopai no wau i ko ia aina, wahi a Iehova, i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau, a hoopau wau ia lakou i kona lima.
As for the nation or kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and does not place its neck under his yoke, I will punish that nation by sword and famine and plague, declares the LORD, until I have destroyed it by his hand.
9 Nolaila, mai hoolohe oukou i na kaula o oukou a me ko oukou poe wanana wahahee, a me ko oukou poe moeuhane, a me ko oukou poe awihi hoowalewale, a me ko oukou poe kilokilo, ka poe olelo mai ia oukou, me ka i ana iho, Aole oukou e hookauwa aku na ke alii o Babulona;
But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums, or your sorcerers who declare, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’
10 No ka mea, wanana mai lakou i ka wahahee ia oukou, i mea e lawe aku ai ia oukou mai kahi loihi aku o ko oukou aina; a i kipaku aku ai au ia oukou, i make hoi oukou.
For they prophesy to you a lie that will serve to remove you from your land; I will banish you and you will perish.
11 Aka, o na aina i haawi i ko lakou a-i malalo iho o ka auamo o ke alii o Babulona, a hookauwa aku nana, o lakou no ka'u e hookoe aku maloko o ko lakou aina iho, wahi a Iehova; a e mahiai no lakou, a e noho ma ka aina.
But the nation that will put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave in its own land, to cultivate it and reside in it, declares the LORD.”
12 Olelo no hoi au ia Zedekia, i ke alii o ka Iuda e like me keia mau olelo a pau, i aku la, E hookomo oukou i ko oukou mau a-i, malalo iho o ka auamo o ke alii o Babulona, a e hookauwa aku nana, a na kona poe kanaka, i ola.
And to Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke the same message: “Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!
13 No ke aha la oe e make ai, o oe, a me kou poe kanaka, i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau, e like me ka Iehova i olelo ku e ai i ko ka aina hookauwa ole na ke alii o Babulona?
Why should you and your people die by sword and famine and plague, as the LORD has decreed against any nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
14 Nolaila, mai hoolohe i na olelo a na kaula, ka poe olelo ia oukou, i ka i ana iho, Aole oukou e hookauwa na ke alii o Babulona: no ka mea, wanana mai lakou i ka wahahee ia oukou.
Do not listen to the words of the prophets who say, ‘You must not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they are prophesying to you a lie.
15 No ka mea, aole na'u lakou i hoouna aku, wahi a Iehova, aka, ke wanana mai nei lakou i ka wahahee ma ko'u inoa; i mea e kipaku aku ai au ia oukou, i make hoi oukou, o oukou, a me na kaula i wanana mai ia oukou.
For I have not sent them, declares the LORD, and yet they are prophesying falsely in My name; therefore I will banish you, and you will perish—you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
16 A olelo aku no hoi au i na kahuna, a i keia poe kanaka a pau, i aku la, Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei; Mai hoolohe i na olelo a ko oukou poe kaula, ka poe wanana mai ia oukou, i ka i ana iho, Aia hoi, e lawe hou koke ia mai na kiaha o ka hale o Iehova mai Babulona mai; no ka mea, ko wanana mai nei lakou i ka wahahee ia oukou.
Then I said to the priests and to all this people, “This is what the LORD says: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Look, very soon now the articles from the house of the LORD will be brought back from Babylon.’ They are prophesying to you a lie.
17 Mai hoolohe ia lakou: e hookauwa aku na ke alii o Babulona, a e ola. No keaha la e anaiia'i keia kulanakauhale?
Do not listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city become a ruin?
18 Aka, ina he poe kaula lakou, a ina ia lakou ka olelo a Iehova, e nonoi uwao aku lakou ia Iehova o na kaua, i hele ole aku ai i Babulona na kiaha i waihoia iloko o ka hale o Iehova, a iloko o ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda, a ma Ierusalema hoi.
If they are indeed prophets and the word of the LORD is with them, let them now plead with the LORD of Hosts that the articles remaining in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, not be taken to Babylon.
19 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, no na kia, a no ke kai, a no na kumu kiaha, a no ke koena o na kiaha, i koe mai maloko o keia kulanakauhale,
For this is what the LORD of Hosts says about the pillars, the sea, the bases, and the rest of the articles that remain in this city,
20 Na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ole ai i ka wa ana i lawepio ai ia Iekonia, i ke keiki a Iehoiakima, i ke alii o ka Iuda, mai Ierusalema aku a Babulona, e me na haku a pau o ka Iuda, a me Ierusalema;
which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
21 Oia, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no na kiaha i koe ma ka hale o Iehova, a ma ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda, a ma Ierusalema;
Yes, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about the articles that remain in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
22 E laweia no lakou i Babulona, a malaila no lakou e waiho ai, a hiki i ka la e hele mai ai au e ike ia lakou, wahi a Iehova; alaila, e lawe mai no au ia lakou iluna, a e hoihoi mai ia lakou i keia wahi.
‘They will be carried to Babylon and will remain there until the day I attend to them again,’ declares the LORD. ‘Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.’”
