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,

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:

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.

“Thus says the Lord to me: Make bands and chains for yourself. And you shall place them 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:

And you shall send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the sons of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who came to Jerusalem, to Zedekiah, the 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;

And you shall instruct them to say to their masters: Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You shall say these things to your 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.

I made the earth, and the men and beasts which are upon the face of the earth, by my great strength and by my outstretched arm. And I have given it to whomever it was pleasing in my eyes.

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.

And now, therefore, I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant. Moreover, I have given to him also the beasts of the field, so that they may serve 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.

And all the nations will serve him, and his son, and his son’s son. Many nations and great kings will serve him, until the time arrives for him and his land.

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.

But the nation or kingdom that will not serve Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and whoever will not bend his neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, I will visit upon that nation with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, says the Lord, until I consume them 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;

Therefore, you should not choose to listen to your own prophets, and diviners, and dreamers, and soothsayers, and sorcerers, who say to you: ‘You shall 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 lies to you, so that they may cause you to be far from your own country, and may cast you out, and may cause you to 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.

Furthermore, the nation which will bend its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and which will serve him, I will permit them to remain in their own land, says the Lord. And they will cultivate it, and they will live in it.”

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 I spoke to Zedekiah, the king of Judah, according to all these words, saying: “Subject your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and you will 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 suffer death, you and your people, by the sword, and famine, and pestilence, just as the Lord has spoken against any nation that refuses to 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 choose to listen to the words of the prophets, saying to you: ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’ For they are speaking a lie to you.

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, says the Lord. And they prophesy falsely in my name, so that they may cast you out, and so that you may perish, both you and the prophets who make predictions for 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.

I spoke also to the priests and to this people, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Do not choose to listen to the words of your prophets, who prophesy to you, saying: ‘Behold, the vessels of the Lord will now quickly be returned from Babylon.’ For 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?

Therefore, do not choose to listen to them, but instead, serve the king of Babylon, so that you may live. Why should this city be given over into desolation?

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.

But if they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is in them, then let them intercede before the Lord of hosts, so that the vessels that were left behind in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, may not go 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 thus says the Lord of hosts to the pillars, and to the sea of brass, and to the bases, and to the remainder of the vessels that have been left behind 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, the king of Babylon, did not take when he carried away Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, from Jerusalem into Babylon, with all the nobility 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;

For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to the vessels that were left behind in the house of the Lord and in the house of the king of Judah and 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 shall be carried away to Babylon, and there they shall be, until the day of their visitation, says the Lord. And then I will cause them to be carried back, and to be restored to this place.
