Ieremia 31
1 I A manawa, wahi a Iehova, owau auanei ke Akua o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela, a o lakou auanei ko'u poe kanaka.
At that time, I will be the God of all Israel's families, and they will be my people, declares the Lord.
2 Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei, O na kanaka i koe o ka pahikaua, loaa no ia lakou ka lokomaikai ma ka waonahele, o ka Iseraela hoi, ia'u i hele ai e hoomaha ia lakou.
This is what the Lord says: The Israelites who survive death by the sword were blessed by the Lord in the desert as they looked for peace and quiet.
3 I ka wa kahiko, ikea o Iehova ia'u, i mai la, Oiaio, ua mau loa ko'u aloha aku ia oe; nolaila, ua hooloihi aku au i ka lokomaikai nou.
Long ago the Lord came and told us, My love for you will last forever. I hold you close to me with my trustworthy love.
4 E kukulu hou ana no wau ia oe, a e kukuluia no oe, e ke kaikamahine puupaa o ka Iseraela. E kahiko hou ia no oe i kou mau pahu kani, e hele aku no i ka haa ana o ka poe olioli.
I'm going to rebuild you, and it will happen. You will be rebuilt, Virgin Israel. You will pick up your tambourines again and run outside to dance with joy.
5 E kanu hou ana no oe i na kumuwaina ma na mauna o Samaria; e kanu no ka poe kanu, a e ai wale hoi.
You will replant vineyards on Samaria's hills; those who plant and will enjoy the grapes.
6 No ka mea, e hiki mai auanei ka la e hea aku ai ka poe kiai maluna o ka mauna o Eperaima, E ala mai oukou, a e pii aku kakou i Ziona, io Iehova la, i ko kakou Akua.
A day is coming when watchmen will call out from the hills of Ephraim, “Come on, let's go up to Zion, to worship the Lord our God!”
7 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; E mele olioli no Iehova, a e hauoli hoi ma ke poo o na aina; e kala aku, a e halelu, a e olelo iho, E Iehova, e hoola oe i kou poe kanaka i ke koena o ka Iseraela.
This is what the Lord says: Sing happily for the descendants of Jacob; shout for the greatest of all nations! Let everybody know! Praise and call out, “Lord, save your people, those who are left of Israel!”
8 Aia hoi, e lawe no wau ia lakou, mai ka aina o ke kukulu akau mai, a e hoiliili hoi ia lakou, mai na mokuna mai o ka honua, me lakou pu no, ka poe makapo, a me ka poe oopa, a me ka wahine hapai, a me ka wahine hanau keiki ana; he poe nui ka i hoi pu mai.
Watch, because I will bring them back from the land of the north and gather them from the ends of the earth. Everyone will return, even the blind and the lame, pregnant women, even mothers giving birth—a great gathering coming home,
9 E hele mai no lakou me ka uwe, ia lakou e pule ai, e alakai no wau ia lakou; e hoohele no wau ia lakou ma na kahawai, ma ke ala pololei; aole lakou e kulanalana malaila, no ka mea, he Makua no wau no ka Iseraela, a o Eperaima ka'u hiapo.
They will come back with tears in their eyes, and they will be praying as I take them home. I will lead them beside streams of waters, on level paths where they won't stumble. For I am Israel's Father; Ephraim is my firstborn.
10 E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e ko na aina, a e kala aku hoi ma na aina loihi e aku, a e olelo, O ka mea i hoopuehu i ka Iseraela, nana no lakou e hoiliili, a e malama ia lakou, e like me ke kahuhipa i kona poe hipa.
Listen, nations, to what the Lord has to say, and let others know about in faraway countries: The Lord who scattered Israel will gather them together and keep them safe, just like a shepherd looks after his flock.
11 No ka mea, ua hoolapanai o Iehova ia Iakoba me ka uku hoopakele ia ia, mailoko mai o ka lima i oi aku ka ikaika i kona.
The Lord has redeemed the descendants of Jacob and rescued them from their enemies who had defeated them.
12 A e hele mai no lakou a e oli ma kahi kiekie o Ziona, a holo pu no lakou i ka maikai o Iehova, no ka huapalaoa, a no ka waina, a no ka aila, a no na keiki o na hipa, a me na bipi; a e like auanei ko lakou uhane me ka mahinaai i mau; aole loa lakou e kaumaha hou aku.
They will return and celebrate with happy shouts on Mount Zion; their faces will beam over the Lord's wonderful gifts—the grain, new wine, and olive oil, and the young of their flocks and herds. Their life will be like a well-watered garden; and they won't ever be depressed again.
13 Alaila, e olioli no ka wahine puupaa ma ka haa ana, o na kanaka opiopio a me na elemakule pu; no ka mea, e hoololi au i ko lakou kaumaha ana i olioli, a e hoomaha au ia lakou, a e hoohauoli ia lakou mailoko mai o ko lakou kaumaha.
The girls will dance in celebration; young men and old people will join in too. I will turn their sorrow into joy, and I will comfort them and change their sadness into happiness.
14 A hoomaona aku au i ka uhane o na kahuna i ka momona, a e maona auanei ko'u poe kanaka i ko'u maikai, wahi a Iehova.
I will give my priests everything they need and more, and my people will be more than satisfied with my goodness towards them, declares the Lord.
15 Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei; Ua loheia ka leo ma Rama, he pihe, a me ka uwe nui ana; e uwe ana o Rahela no kana mau keiki, a hoole oia, aole e na no kana mau keiki, no ka mea, aole ae nei lakou.
This is what the Lord says: The sound of terrible weeping and mourning is heard in Ramah. It's Rachel crying for her children. They are dead, and she can't be comforted
16 Ke i mai nei o Iehova penei; E uumi oe i kou leo i ka uwe ana, a me kou mau maka i ua waimaka; no ka mea, e ukuia no kau hana. wahi a Iehova; a e hele hou mai no lakou, mai ka aina mai o ka enemi.
This is what the Lord says: Don't cry anymore, don't weep anymore, because you're going to be rewarded for what you've done, declares the Lord. Your children will return from the country of your enemies.
17 He lana no ka manao i kou hope, wahi a Iehova, i hele hou mai no na keiki i ko lakou mokuna iho.
So you can have hope for the future, declares the Lord. Your children will return to their own country.
18 Oiaio no ua lohe au ia Eperaima e olo pihe ana, Ua paipai mai oe ia'u, a ua paipaiia mai au, e like me ka bipi maa ole. E hoohuli oe ia'u, a e hoohuliia no wau, no ka mea, o oe no o Iehova, ko'u Akua.
Don't worry, I've heard Ephraim's groans, saying, “You disciplined me really hard as if I was a calf that hadn't been trained. Please bring me back, let me return, for you are the Lord my God.
19 No ka mea, mahope o ko'u hoohuliia, mihi no wau; a mahope o ko'u aoia mai, hahau no wau i ko'u uha. Hilahila no wau, oia, hoopalaimaka no hoi, no ka mea, kaikai no wau i ka hoowahawaha o ko'u wa opiopio.
When I came back to you I was sorry, and once I understood, I held my head in sadness. I was ashamed and I blushed, embarrassed at what I'd done when I was young.”
20 O Eperaima anei ka'u keiki aloha? He keiki anei ia e olioli ai? No ka mea, mai ka wa mai o kau olelo ku e ana ia ia, he oiaio, ke hoomanao mau nei au ia ia: nolaila, e haehae nei ko'u opu nona; he oiaio no e lokomaikai aku no wau ia ia, wahi a Iehova.
But isn't Ephraim still my precious son, my lovely child? Even though I often have to scold him, I can't forget him. So I'm torn inside with longing, wanting to show how much I care about him! declares the Lord.
21 E kukulu oe i ahu, a hana hoi i puu kiekie nou; e kau oe i kou naau ma ke kuamoo, ma ke ala au i hele ai. E huli hou oe, e ke kaikamahine puupaa o ka Iseraela, e huli hou oe i keia mau kulanakauhale ou.
Put up markers on the road; make signposts for yourselves. You need to be sure you can find the highway, the road you traveled on. Come back, Virgin Israel, come back to your towns.
22 Pehea la ka loihi o kou aea ana aku, e ke kaikamahine hoi hope? No ka mea, ua hana o Iehova i ka mea hou ma ka honua, na ka wahine no e hoomalu i ke kane.
How long are you going to waver in your decision, you unfaithful daughter? For the Lord has made something new happen here: a woman is going to protect a man.
23 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; E olelo hou no lakou i keia mau olelo ma ka aina o ka Iuda, a ma kolaila mau kulanakauhale, i ka wa a'u e hoihoi ai i ko lakou pio ana; Na Iehova e hoopomaikai ia oe, i kahi e noho ai o ka hoopono, ka mauna hoi o ka hemolele.
This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: When I bring them back home from exile, they will say again in the land of Judah and in its towns: “May the Lord bless you, holy mountain of Jerusalem, home of what is good and right.
24 A e noho pu no maloko olaila, ma ka Iuda hoi, a maloko o kolaila mau kulanakauhale a pau ka poe mahiai, a me ka poe malama hipa.
The people of Judah and all its towns will live together in the land, the farmers and those who move around with their flocks,
25 No ka mea, ua hooana aku au i ka uhane i makewai, a ua hoomaona wau i na uhane a pau i niuniu.
because I'm going to give rest to those who are tired and give strength to all those who are weak.”
26 Alaila, ala iho la au, a nana ae la, a ua oluolu ko'u hiamoe ana ia'u.
At this I woke up and looked around. I'd had a very pleasant sleep.
27 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e lulu iho ai au i ka ohana a Iuda, i ka hua a ke kanaka a me ka hua a ka holoholona.
Look! The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will make the numbers of people and livestock grow in Israel and Judah.
28 A e like no me ka'u i kiai iho ai maluna o lakou, e uhuki ae, a e uhai iho, a e hoohiolo, a e luku, a e hoopilikia; pela no hoi au e kiai ai maluna iho, e kukulu, a e kanu, wahi a Iehova.
I took care of them by uprooting them and tearing them down, by wiping them out and destroying them and bringing them disaster. Now I will take care of them by building them up and helping them grow, declares the Lord.
29 Ia mau la la, aole lakou e olelo hou ae, Ua ai na makuakane i ka huawaina awahia, a ua oi na niho o na keiki.
At that time people won't repeat this proverb, “The fathers ate the unripe grapes, but their children got the sour taste.”
30 Aka, e make auanei kela mea keia mea no kona hewa iho: o kela kanaka keia kanaka e ai ana i ka huawaina awahia, o kona mau niho no ke oi.
No. Each person will die because of their own sins. If anyone eats unripe grapes, they will get the sour taste themselves.
31 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e hana aku ai au i berita hou me ka ohana a Iseraela, a me ka ohana a Iuda:
Look! The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and Judah.
32 Aole e like ana me ka berita a'u i hana aku ai me ko lakou poe makaukane, i ka la a'u i lalau aku ai ia lakou ma ka lima, e lawe ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai; o ua berita la a'u ka lakou i uhai ai, ia'u i noho ai he Kane na lakou, wahi a Iehova:
It won't be like the agreement that I made with their forefathers when I held their hands and led them out of Egypt. They broke that agreement, even though I was faithful like a husband to them, declares the Lord.
33 Aka, o keia ka berita a'u e hana'i me ka ohana a Iseraela; Mahope iho o ia mau la, wahi a Iehova, e kau no wau i ko'u kanawai maloko o lakou, a e kakau iho ma ko lakou naau; a owau auanei ko lakou Akua, a o lakou hoi ko'u poe kanaka.
But this is the agreement I'm going to make with the people of Israel at that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws inside them and write them in their minds. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
34 Aole lakou e ao hou aku o kela mea keia mea i kona hoalauna, a o kela mea keia mea i kona hoahanau, e olelo ana, E ike ia Iehova; no ka mea, e ike auanei lakou a pau ia'u, mai ka mea liilii loa o lakou a hiki i ko lakou mea nui loa, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, e kala aku auanei au i ko lakou hala, aole hoi au e hoomanao hou aku i ko lakou hewa.
No one will need to teach a neighbor or their brother, telling them, “You ought to know the Lord.” For everyone will know me, from the smallest to the greatest. I will forgive them when they do wrong, and I will forget about their sins.
35 Penei ka olelo a Iehova, a ka mea haawi mai i ka la i lama no ke ao, a me na kanawai no ka mahina a me na hoku ma ka po, o ka mea hoaleale hoi i ke kai a halulu kona mau ale; o Iehova Sabaota kona inoa.
This is what the Lord says, who provides the sun to give light during the day, who places in order the moon and stars to give light at night, who makes the sea rough so that its waves roar; his name is the Lord Almighty:
36 Ina e neenee aku keia mau kanawai mai ko'u alo aku, wahi a Iehova, alaila e pau auanei na mamo a Iseraela, aole ia he lahuikanaka imua o'u, a mau loa aku.
Only if I allowed this order to fell apart, declares the Lord, would Israel's descendants stop being my people.
37 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Ina e hiki ke anaia ka lani iluna, a e huliia hoi na kumu o ka honua ilalo, alaila, e haalele no au i na mamo a pau o ka Iseraela, no na mea a pau a lakou i hana'i, wahi a Iehova.
This is what the Lord says: Only if the heavens above could be measured, and the foundations of the earth below could be investigated, would I reject all of Israel's descendants because of everything they've done, declares the Lord.
38 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova, e kukuluia'i ke kulanakauhale no Iehova, mai ka halekiai o Hananeela a hiki i ka pukapa o ke kihi.
The time is coming, declares the Lord, when this city will be rebuilt for the Lord, all the way from the tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.
39 A e hele aku ke kaula-ana ma o aku maluna o ka puu Gareba, a e poai mai i Goata.
The builder's measuring line will again stretch out directly to Gareb Hill and then turn toward Goah.
40 A o ke awawa a pau o na kupapau, a o ka lehuahi, a o na kula a pau a hiki i kahawai o Kiderona, a hiki i ka puka lio ma ka hikina, e laa ia no Iehova; aole ia e uhuki hou ia, aole hoi e hoohiolo hou ia a mau loa aku.
The entire valley, where the dead are buried and the trash is dumped, and all the fields from the Kidron Valley as far as the Horse Gate to the east, will be holy to the Lord. Jerusalem will never again be torn down or destroyed.
