Ieremia 29
1 EIA na olelo o ka palapala a Ieremia, a ke kaula i hoouna aku ai, mai Ierusalema aku i ke koena o ka poe lunakahiko i lawepioia'ku la, a i na kahuna, a i na kaula, a i na kanaka a pau a Nebukaneza i lawepio ai, mai Ierusalema aku a Babulona;
Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders which were carried away captives, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon;
2 (Mahope iho o ka hele ana o Iekonia, ke alii, a me ke alii wahine, a me na luna a me na kaukaualii o ka Iuda a me Ierusalema, a me na kamana, a me na amara, a puka aku la mawaho o Ierusalema; )
(After that Jeconiah the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the carpenters, and the smiths, were departed from Jerusalem; )
3 Ma ka lima o Elasa, ke keiki a Sapona, a me Gemaria, ke keiki a Hilekia, (na mea a Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda i hoouna aku ai i Babulona, io Nebukaneza la, i ke alii o Babulona, ) i iho la,
By the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon) saying,
4 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i ka poe a pau i lawepioia, na mea a'u i lawepio ai, mai Ierusalema aku a Babulona;
Thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon;
5 E kukulu hale oukou, a e noho iho; e kanu i na mahinaai, a e ai i kolaila ai:
Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;
6 E mare i na wahine, a e hoohanau i na keikikane, a i na kaikamahine; a e lawe i na wahine na ka oukou poe keikikane, a e haawi aku hoi i ka oukou mau kaikamahine e mare i na kane, i hanau mai lakou i na keikikane, a i na kaikamahine; i kawowo oukou malaila, aole hoi e emi iho.
Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished.
7 A e imi oukou i ka mea e malu ai ke kulanakauhale, kahi a'u i lawepio ai ia oukou, a e pule aku oukou ia Iehova nona; no ka mea, ma kona malu oukou e malu ai.
And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto YHWH for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
8 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; Mai puni oukou i ko oukou mau kaula, a me ko oukou mau kilokilo, na mea iwaenakonu o oukou; mai hoolohe hoi oukou i ko oukou moeuhane a oukou e hoomoe ai.
For thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.
9 No ka mea, ke wanana wahahee nei lakou ia oukou ma ko'u inoa. Aole au i hoouna ia lakou, wahi a Iehova.
For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith YHWH.
10 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Mahope o ka pau ana o na makahiki he kanahiku ma Babulona, alaila, e ike aku no au ia oukou, a e hooko i ka'u olelo maikai ia oukou, i ka hoihoi ana mai ia oukou i keia wahi.
For thus saith YHWH, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
11 No ka mea, ua ike no wau i na manao a'u e manao nei ia oukou, wahi a Iehova, he mau manao no ka hoomalu, aole no ke ahewa, e haawi ia oukou i hope maikai, a me ka hoolana.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith YHWH, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 Alaila oukou e hea mai ai ia'u, a e hele hoi oukou, a e pule mai ia'u, a e hoolohe no au ia oukou.
Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13 A e imi mai no oukou ia'u a loaa, i ka wa e imi mai ai oukou ia'u me ko oukou naau a pau.
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
14 A e loaa no wau ia oukou, wahi a Iehova, a e hoihoi aku au i ko oukou lawepioia; a e hoiliili hoi au ia oukou mai na aina a pau mai, a mai na wahi a pau mai, hahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia oukou, wahi a Iehova; a e lawe hou no wau ia oukou i kahi malaila aku no wau i lawepio aku ai ia oukou.
And I will be found of you, saith YHWH: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith YHWH; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.
15 No ka mea, ua olelo oukou, Na Iehova no i hoala mai i mau kaula no kakou ma Babulona.
Because ye have said, YHWH hath raised us up prophets in Babylon;
16 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova no ke alii e noho ana ma ka noho alii o Davida, a no na kanaka a pau e noho la iloko o keia kulanakauhale, a no ko oukou poe hoahanau i hele pu ole me oukou iloko o ke pio;
Know that thus saith YHWH of the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and of all the people that dwelleth in this city, and of your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity;
17 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; Aia hoi, e hoouna au i ka pahikaua maluna o lakou, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau, a e hoolilo wau ia lakou e like me na fiku inoino, pono ole ke aiia, no ko lakou inoino loa.
Thus saith YHWH of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
18 A e hahai no wau ia lakou i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau, a e haawi no wau ia lakou a pau e laweia a iloko o na aupuni a pau o ka honua, i mea e poino ai, a i mea pilihua, a i mea hoowahawaha, a i mea henehene, iwaeua o na aina a pau, kahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia lakou:
And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations where I have driven them:
19 No ka mea, aole lakou i hoolohe mai i ka'u mau olelo, wahi a Iehova, na olelo a'u i hoouna aku ai ia lakou ma ka'u mau kauwa, ma na kaula hoi, e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna, aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai, wahi a Iehova.
Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith YHWH, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith YHWH.
20 E hoolohe hoi oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e oukou a pau o na mea pio, na mea a'u i hoouna aku ai, mai Ierusalema a Babulona:
Hear ye therefore the word of YHWH, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon:
21 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no Ahaba, ke koiki a Kolaia, a no Zedekia, ke keiki a Maaseia, na mea i wanana mai i ka wahahee ia oukou ma ko'u inoa; Aia hoi, e haawi no wau ia laua iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona; a e pepehi no oia ia laua imua o ko oukou mau maka:
Thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, of Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, which prophesy a lie unto you in my name; Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall slay them before your eyes;
22 A ma o laua la e laweia'i ka olelo hoino e ka poe pio a pau o ka Iuda, na mea ma Babulona, me ka olelo iho, Na Iehova e hoohalike ia oe me Zedekia, a me Ahaba, na mea a ke alii o Babulona i ohinu ai ma ke ahi;
And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Judah which are in Babylon, saying, YHWH make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;
23 No ka mea, ua hana laua i ka mea lapuwale maloko o ka Iseraela, a ua moe kolohe me na wahine a ko lakou hoalauna, a ua olelo i na olelo wahahee ma ko'u inoa, na mea a'u i kauoha ole ai ia lakou; ua ike no wau, a he hoike no hoi, wahi a Iehova.
Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbours' wives, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded them; even I know, and am a witness, saith YHWH.
24 E olelo aku no hoi oe ia Semaia, i ka mea moeuhane, e i aku,
Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
25 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o ua kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, me ka i ana mai, No ko hoouka ana i na palapala ma kou inoa i na kanaka a pau ma Ierusalema, a ia Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia, ke kahuna, a i na kahuna a pau, i ka i ana ae,
Thus speaketh YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
26 Ua hoolilo o Iehova ia oe i kahuna, ma ka hakahaka o Iehoiada, ke kahuna, i mea e noho luna'i oukou maloko o ka hale o Iehova, no kela kanaka keia kanaka hewa-hewa, a hoolilo ia ia iho i kaula, i mea e hahao aku ai oe ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, a iloko o na laau kupee:
YHWH hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of YHWH, for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.
27 A ano la, no keaha la oe i papa ole aku ai ia Ieremia no Anetota, ka mea hoolilo ia ia iho i kaula no oukou?
Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth, which maketh himself a prophet to you?
28 No ka mea, nolaila ia i hoouna mai ai io makou ma Babulona nei, i ka i ana mai, Ua loihi keia noho ana; e kukulu hale oukou, a e noho iho; e kanu i ua mahinaai, a e ai i kolaila ai.
For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This captivity is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
29 A heluhelu aku la o Zepania, ke kahuna i keia palapala ma na pepeiao o Ieremia, ke kaula.
And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
30 Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, i mai la,
Then came the word of YHWH unto Jeremiah, saying,
31 E hoouna aku, a i ka poe a pau e noho pio ana, e i aku, Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova no Semaia, ka mea moeuhane; No ko Semaia wanana ana ia oukou, a hoouna ole aku au ia ia, a hoohilinai oia ia oukou i ka wahahee;
Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith YHWH concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah hath prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to trust in a lie:
32 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e hoopai no wau ia Semaia, ka mea moeuhane, a me kana hua; aole e loaa ia ia ke kanaka e noho mawaena o keia poe kanaka; aole hoi oia e ike i ka maikai a'u e hana'i no ko'u poe kanaka, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, ua ao aku oia i ke kipi ana ia Iehova.
Therefore thus saith YHWH; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed: he shall not have a man to dwell among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I will do for my people, saith YHWH; because he hath taught rebellion against YHWH.
