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, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, 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.
Yahweh says to me: “Make bonds and bars, and put 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:
Then send them to the king of Edom, to the king of Moab, to the king of the children of Ammon, to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who 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 command to their masters, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “You shall tell 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 have made the earth, the men, and the animals that are on the surface of the earth by my great power and by my outstretched arm. I give it to whom it seems right to me.
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.
Now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant. I have also given the animals of the field to him to 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.
All the nations will serve him, his son, and his son’s son, until the time of his own land comes. Then many nations and great kings will make him their bondservant.
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.
“‘“‘It will happen that I will punish the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon,’ says Yahweh, ‘with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, until I have consumed 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;
But as for you, don’t listen to your prophets, to your diviners, to your dreams, to your soothsayers, or to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, “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 a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, so that I would drive you out, and you would 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 brings their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serves him, that nation I will let remain in their own land,’ says Yahweh; ‘and they will till it and dwell 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.
I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, “Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and 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 will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as Yahweh has spoken concerning the nation that will 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.
Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon;’ for they prophesy 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 Yahweh, “but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may 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.
Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, Yahweh says, “Don’t listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Behold, the vessels of Yahweh’s house will now shortly be brought again from Babylon;’ for they prophesy a lie to you.
17 Mai hoolohe ia lakou: e hookauwa aku na ke alii o Babulona, a e ola. No keaha la e anaiia'i keia kulanakauhale?
Don’t listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon, and live. Why should this city become a 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 Yahweh’s word is with them, let them now make intercession to Yahweh of Armies, that the vessels which are left in Yahweh’s house, in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, don’t 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 Yahweh of Armies says concerning the pillars, concerning the sea, concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left 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 didn’t take when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and 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, Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says concerning the vessels that are left in Yahweh’s house, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at 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 there they will be, until the day that I visit them,’ says Yahweh; ‘then I will bring them up, and restore them to this place.’”
