< 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,” says the LORD, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
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.
The LORD says, “The people who survive the sword found favour in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.”
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.
The LORD appeared of old to me, saying, “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore I have drawn you with loving kindness.
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 will build you again, and you will be built, O virgin of Israel. You will again be adorned with your tambourines, and will go out in the dances of those who make merry.
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.
Again you will plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and will enjoy its fruit.
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.
For there will be a day that the watchmen on the hills of Ephraim cry, ‘Arise! Let’s go up to Zion to 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.
For the LORD says, “Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the chief of the nations. Publish, praise, and say, ‘LORD, save your people, the remnant 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.
Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, along with the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her who travails with child together. They will return as a great company.
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 with weeping. I will lead them with petitions. I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they won’t stumble; for I am a father to Israel. 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.
“Hear the LORD’s word, you nations, and declare it in the distant islands. Say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does 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.
For the LORD has ransomed Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than he.
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 come and sing in the height of Zion, and will flow to the goodness of the LORD, to the grain, to the new wine, to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd. Their soul will be as a watered garden. They will not sorrow any more at all.
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.
Then the virgin will rejoice in the dance, the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
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 satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people will be satisfied with my goodness,” says 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.
The LORD says: “A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children. She refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more.”
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.
The LORD says: “Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” says the LORD. “They will come again from the land of the enemy.
17 He lana no ka manao i kou hope, wahi a Iehova, i hele hou mai no na keiki i ko lakou mokuna iho.
There is hope for your latter end,” says the LORD. “Your children will come again to their own territory.
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.
“I have surely heard Ephraim grieving thus, ‘You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as an untrained calf. Turn me, and I will be turned, 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.
Surely after that I was turned. I repented. After that I was instructed. I struck my thigh. I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.’
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.
Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I still earnestly remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him. I will surely have mercy on him,” says 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.
“Set up road signs. Make guideposts. Set your heart towards the highway, even the way by which you went. Turn again, virgin of Israel. Turn again to these your cities.
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 will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the earth: a woman will encompass 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.
The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Yet again they will use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I reverse their captivity: ‘The LORD bless you, habitation of righteousness, mountain of holiness.’
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.
Judah and all its cities will dwell therein together, the farmers, and those who go about with 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.
For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.”
26 Alaila, ala iho la au, a nana ae la, a ua oluolu ko'u hiamoe ana ia'u.
On this I awakened, and saw; and my sleep was sweet to me.
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.
“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of animal.
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.
It will happen that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so I will watch over them to build and to plant,” says 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.
“In those days they will say no more, “‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
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.
But everyone will die for his own iniquity. Every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be set on edge.
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:
“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of 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:
not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which covenant of mine they broke, although I was a husband to them,” says 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 covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the LORD: “I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. I will be their God, and they shall 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.
They will no longer each teach his neighbour, and every man teach his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD;’ for they will all know me, from their least to their greatest,” says the LORD, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
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.
The LORD, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar— the LORD of Armies is his name, says:
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.
“If these ordinances depart from before me,” says the LORD, “then the offspring of Israel also will cease from being a nation before me forever.”
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.
The LORD says: “If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then I will also cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done,” says 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.
“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the city will be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananel to the gate of the corner.
39 A e hele aku ke kaula-ana ma o aku maluna o ka puu Gareba, a e poai mai i Goata.
The measuring line will go out further straight onward to the hill Gareb, and will turn towards 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 whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields to the brook Kidron, to the corner of the horse gate towards the east, will be holy to the LORD. It will not be plucked up or thrown down any more forever.”
