Ieremia 32
1 KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la mai o Iehova mai la, i ka umi o ka makahiki o Zedekia ke alii o ka Iuda, oia ka makahiki umikumamawalu o Nebukaneza.
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of Zedekiah, the king of Judah. The same is the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
2 Ia manawa, hoopilikia mai la ka poe kaua o ke alii o Babulona ia Ierusalema: a ua hoopaaia o Ieremia ke kaula ma kahi paa o ka halepaahao iloko o ka hale o ke alii o Iuda.
It was then that the army of the king of Babylon besieged Jerusalem. And Jeremiah, the prophet, was confined to the atrium of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Judah.
3 No ka mea, hoopaa iho la o Zedekia ke alii o Iuda ia ia, e olelo mai ana, No ke aha la oe e wanana mai nei, i ka i ana mai, Penei ka olelo a Iehova, Aia hoi e haawi aku no au i keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a nana ia e hoopio:
For Zedekiah, the king of Judah, had confined him, saying: “Why do you make predictions, saying: ‘Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it?
4 Aole hoi e pakele o Zedekia ke alii o Iuda mai ka lima aku o ka poe Kaledea; he oiaio e haawiia oia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e kamailio oia me ia he waha he waha, a e ike auanei kona mau maka i ko ia la mau maka;
And Zedekiah, the king of Judah, will not escape from the hand of the Chaldeans. Instead, he will be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon. And he will speak to him, mouth to mouth, and he will see him, eye to eye.
5 A e kai aku oia ia Zedekia i Babulona, a ilaila oia e noho ai a ike hou au ia ia, wahi a Iehova: ina e kaua aku oukou me ka poe Kaledea, aole oukou e pomaikai.
And he will lead Zedekiah to Babylon. And he will be there until I visit him, says the Lord. So then, if you contend against the Chaldeans, you will have no success.’”
6 Olelo ae la o Ieremia, Hiki mai la ka olelo a ke Akua io'u nei, i mai,
And Jeremiah said: “The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
7 Aia hoi, e hele mai ana iou la o Hanameela ke keiki a Saluma kekahi makuakane ou, e i mai ana, E kuai oe nou i kuu aina ma Anatota; no ka mea, o ka pono no ka hoopanai, nou no ia e kuai.
Behold, Hanamel, the son of Shallum, your cousin, will come to you, saying: ‘Buy for yourself my field, which is in Anathoth. For it is your right, as next of kin, to buy it.’
8 A hele mai la io'u nei o Hanameela ke keiki a kekahi makuakane o'u, iloko o ka pahale o ka halepaahao, e like me ka olelo a ke Akua; i mai la ia ia'u, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kuai oe i kuu aina ma Anatota ma ka moku o ka Beniamina; no ka mea, nou no ka hooili ana, a nou hoi ka hoopanai ana; e kuai oe nou. Alaila, ike iho la au o ka olelo ia a ke Akua.
And in accord with the word of the Lord, Hanamel, the son of my uncle, came to me, to the entrance of the prison, and he said to me: ‘Take possession of my field, which is in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin. For the right of inheritance is yours, and as the next of kin you may possess it.’ Then I understood that this was the word of the Lord.
9 A kuai iho la au i ka aina me Hanameela ke keiki a kekahi makuakane o'u, ka mea i noho ma Anatota, a kaupaona iho nona i ke kala, i na sekela kala he umikumamahiku.
And I bought the field, which is in Anathoth, from Hanamel, the son of my uncle. And I weighed out the money to him, seven small coins and ten pieces of silver.
10 Kakau iho la au ma ka palapala, a hoopaa iho la i ka wepa, a lawe iho la na mea ike maka, a kau iho la i ke kala ma na mea kaupaona.
And I wrote it in a book and signed it, and I summoned witnesses. And I weighed out the silver on a scale.
11 Lawe ae la au i ka palapala hoike i ke kuai ana, i ka mea i paa i ka wepa, a me ka mea i hoopaa ole ia, mamuli o ke kanawai a me ka oihana;
And I received the signed deed of possession, and the stipulations, and the ratifications, with the exterior seals.
12 A haawi aku la au i ka palapala hoike i ke kuai ana ia Baruka ke keiki a Neria, ke keiki a Maaseia, ma ke alo o Hanameela ke keiki a kekahi makuakane o'u, a ma ke alo hoi o na mea hoike, o ka poe i kakau inoa ma ka palapala o ke kuai ana, imua hoi o ka poe Iudaio a pau e noho ana ma ka pahale o ka halepaahao.
And I gave the deed of possession to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanamel, the son of my uncle, in the sight of the witnesses who had been recorded in the book of the purchase, and in the sight of all the Jews who were sitting in the atrium of the prison.
13 Kauoha aku la au ia Baruka imua o lakou, i aku la,
And I instructed Baruch, in their sight, saying:
14 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; E lawe i keia mau palapala hoike, o ka palapala no ke kuai ana i paa i ka wepa, a me keia palapala hoike aole i paa, a e hahao iloko o ka ipu lepo, i malamaia'i ia mau mea i na la he nui.
Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Take these writings, this sealed deed of purchase, and this deed which is open, and place them in an earthen vessel, so that they will be preserved for many days.’
15 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei; E komo hou ia na hale, na aina a me na pawaina ma keia aina.
For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Houses, and fields, and vineyards will be possessed still, in this land.’
16 A pau ae la i ka haawiia o ka palapala hoike ia Baruka ke keiki a Neria, pule aku la au ia Iehova, i ka i ana aku,
And after I had delivered the deed of possession to Baruch, the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
17 Auwe, e ka Haku, e Iehova e! aia hoi, nau no i hana ka lani a me ka honua, ma kou mana nui, a me ka lima kakauha, aohe mea i hiki ole ia oe.
Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, you have made heaven and earth, by your great strength and by your outstretched arm. No word is difficult for you.
18 Ke hoike mai nei oe i ka lokomaikai i na tausani, a ke hoopai nei hoi i ka hala o na makua maloko o ka poli o ka lakou mau keiki mahope o lakou; ke Akua nui a me ka mana, o Iehova Sabaota kona inoa.
You act with mercy a thousand-fold, but you repay the iniquity of the fathers into the sinews of their sons after them. The Lord of hosts is your name: most strong, great, and powerful!
19 He nui ka naauao, he mana hoi i ka hana: no ka mea, e kaakaa ana kou mau maka maluna iho o na aoao a pau o na keiki a kanaka; e uku mai i kela mea i keia mea e like me kona mau aoao, a e like hoi me ka hua o kana hana ana;
You are great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought. Your eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of Adam, so that you may repay each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his intentions.
20 Ka mea nana i hoonoho i na hoailona a me na mea kupaianaha ma ka aina o Aigupita, a hiki i neia la, iloko hoi o ka Iseraela, a iwaena o kanaka; a i hookaulana i kou inoa, me ia i keia la;
You caused signs and portents in the land of Egypt, and in Israel, and among men, even until this day. And you have made a name for yourself, just as in this day.
21 A i lawe mai i kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela mai ka aina o Aigupita mai me na hoailona, a me na mea kupaianaha, a me ka lima ikaika, a me ka lima kakauha, a me ka weliweli nui;
And you have led your people Israel away from the land of Egypt, with signs and portents, and with a robust hand and an outstretched arm, and with great terror.
22 A haawi mai la no lakou i keia aina, au i hoohiki ai i ko lakou poe kupuna e haawi mai no lakou, he aina e kahe ana ka waiu a me ka meli;
And you have given them this land, which you swore, to their fathers, that you would give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
23 A komo mai la lakou a noho iho la; aka, aole lakou i hoolohe i kou leo, aole hoi i hele ma kou kanawai: aole lakou i hana iki i ka mea a pau au i kauoha mai ai ia lakou e hana; nolaila ua kau mai ai oe i keia popilikia a pau maluna iho o lakou.
And they entered it and possessed it. But they did not obey your voice, and they did not walk in your law. And they did not do all of the things that you commanded them to do. And so, all of these evils have happened to them.
24 Aia hoi na puu kaua, ua hiki mai i ke kulanakauhale e lawepio ia ia, a ua haawiia ke kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ka poe Kaledea e kaua ku e mai ana, no ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka ahulau: a ua ko io no ka mea au i olelo mai ai; aia hoi, ke ike mai nei oe.
Behold, fortifications were built against the city, so as to capture it. And the city was given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, before the face of the sword, and of famine, and of pestilence. And what you have spoken has occurred, just as you yourself discern.
25 E ka Haku, Iehova e, ua olelo mai oe ia'u, E kuai i ka aina me ke kala, a e lalau i na mea ike maka; aka, ua lilo ke kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ka poe Kaledea.
So why, O Lord God, are you saying to me: ‘Buy a field with money, and summon witnesses,’ while the city is being given into the hands of the Chaldeans?”
26 Alaila hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, i mai la,
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
27 Aia hoi, owau no o Iehova, ke Akua o na mea io a pau: e hiki ole anei kekahi mea ia u?
“Behold, I am the Lord God; I am above all flesh. Can any word be difficult for me?
28 Nolaila, ke olelo nei o Iehova; Aia hoi, e haawi no wau i keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ka poe Kaledea, a iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona, a e hoopio auanei oia ia.
Therefore, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they will capture it.
29 A o ka poe Kaledea e kaua mai ana i keia kulanakauhale, e hele mai lakou, a e puhi i keia kulanakauhale, a e hoopau lakou ia i ke ahi, me na hale hoi, maluna olaila kahi i puhi ai lakou nei i ka mea ala na Baala, a ninini iho ai i na mohaiinu no na akua e, i mea e hoonaukiuki mai ai ia'u.
And the Chaldeans fighting against this city will advance, and set fire to it, and burn it, along with the houses on whose roofs they were offering sacrifice to Baal and were pouring out libations to strange gods, so that they provoked me to wrath.
30 No ka mea, ua hana hewa wale no na mamo a Iseraela a me na mamo a Iuda imua o'u mai ko lakou wa kamalii mai: no ka mea, ua hoonaukiuki wale mai no na mamo a Iseraela ia'u, i ka hana a ko lakou mau lima, wahi a Iehova.
For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah, from their youth, have continually done evil in my eyes. The sons of Israel, even until now, have been provoking me with the work of their hands, says the Lord.
31 No ka mea, he mea hoonaukiuki. a me ka hooinaina ia'u keia kulanakauhale, mai ka la mai i kukulu ai lakou ia a hiki i keia la, i mea e hoonee aku ai au ia mai ko'u alo aku;
For this city has been a cause of fury and indignation to me, from the day when they built it, until this day, in which it will be taken away from my sight,
32 No ka hewa a pau o na mamo a Iseraela, a o na mamo a Iuda, ka mea a lakou i hana'i e hoonaukiuki mai ia'u, o lakou, o ko lakou poe alii, a me na luna o lakou, a me ko lakou poe kahuna, a me ko lakou poe kaula, a me na kanaka o ka Iuda, a me ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema.
because of all the wickedness of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their leaders and their priests and their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
33 A ua huli lakou i ke kua ia'u, aole i ka maka: owau nae ka mea nana lakou i ao aku e ala ana i ka wanaao e ao aku; aole nae lakou i hoolohe mai, i loaa ia lakou ke akamai.
And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces. And though I taught them and instructed them, rising at first light, they were not willing to listen, so that they would receive discipline.
34 A kau no lakou i ko lakou mea haumia iloko o ka hale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, e hoohaumia ia.
And they have placed their idols in the house where my name is invoked, so that they defiled it.
35 A hana no hoi lakou i na wahi kiekie o Baala, na mea ma ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, i mea e hele ai ka lakou keikikane a me ka lakou kaikamahine i Moleka, ka mea a'u i kauoha ole aku ai ia lakou, aole hoi ia i komo iloko o ko'u manao e hana lakou i keia mea haumia e hewa'i o ka Iuda.
And they have built the exalted places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, so that they may initiate their sons and their daughters into Molech, though I did not command, nor did it enter into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and so lead Judah into sin.
36 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela no keia kulanakauhale, ka mea a oukou i olelo ai, E haawiia oia iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, no ka pahikaua, a no ka wi, a no ka mai ahulau; peneia,
And now, because of these things, thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to this city, about which you say that it will be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
37 Aia hoi, e hoiliili mai nei au ia lakou mai loko mai o na aina a pau, kahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia lakou i ko'u huhu, a i ko'u ukiuki, a me ka inaina nui; a e hoihoi hou mai au ia lakou i keia wahi, a e hoonoho au ia lakou i ka maluhia.
Behold, I will gather them together from all the lands to which I have cast them out in my fury, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation. And I will lead them back to this place, and I will cause them to live in confidence.
38 A e lilo mai lakou i poe kanaka no'u, a owau auanei ko lakou Akua.
And they will be my people, and I will be their God.
39 A e haawi aku no wau ia lakou i hookahi naau, a i hookahi aoao, i makau mau lakou ia'u, i mea e pono ai lakou, a me ka lakou poe keiki mahope iho o lakou.
And I will give to them one heart and one way, so that they may fear me all their days, and so that it may be well with them, and with their sons after them.
40 A e hana wau i berita mau loa me lakou, aole hoi au o huli ae mai o lakou aku, me ka hana ia lakou i ka maikai, a e kau no au i ka makau ia'u iloko o ko lakou naau, aole hoi lakou e haalele mai ia'u.
And I will form an everlasting covenant with them, and I will not cease to do good for them. And I will put my fear into their heart, so that they do not withdraw from me.
41 E olioli no wau ia lakou, e hana maikai ia lakou, a e hoonoho paa ia lakou ma keia aina, mo ko'u naau a pau, a me ko'u uhane a pau.
And I will rejoice over them, while I do good for them. And I will plant them in this land, in truth, with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
42 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; E like me ko'u lawe ana i keia hewa nui a pau maluna o keia poe kanaka, pela no wau e lawe maluna o lakou i ka maikai a pau a'u i olelo aku ai ia lakau.
For thus says the Lord: Just as I have led over this people all this great evil, so will I lead over them all the good that I am speaking to them now.
43 E kuaiia auanei na mahinaai ma keia aina, kahi a oukou i olelo ai, Ua mehameha, aohe kanaka, aohe holoholona; ua haawiia iloko o ka lima o ko Kaledea.
And fields will be possessed in this land, about which you say that it is desolate because there remains neither man nor beast, and because it has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
44 E kuai no na kanaka i na mahinaai i ke kala, a kakau i palapala e akaka'i, a hoopaa i ka wepa, a e lawe i poe ike, ma ka aina o ka Beniamina a ma na wahi e puni ana ia Ierusalema, a ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na kulanakauhale o na mauna, a ma na kulanakauhale o ke awawa, a ma na kulanakauhale o ke kukuluhema; no ka mea, e hoihoi mai au i ko lakou pio ana, wahi a Iehova.
Fields will be bought for money, and deeds will be written and signed, and witnesses will be summoned, in the land of Benjamin and all around Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, and in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities on the plains, and in the cities that are toward the south. For I will convert their captivity, says the Lord.”
