Ieremia 34
1 KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i ka wa i kaua'i o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, a me kona poe kaua a pau, a me na aupuni a pau o ka honua, na aupuni malalo iho o kona lima, a kaua na kanaka a pau ia Ierusalema, a i kona mau kulanakauhale a pau, i mai la,
The word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, when Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the country ruled by his power, and all the people, fought against Jerusalem, and against all its cities, saying,
2 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, penei: O hele, a e olelo aku ia Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, a e hai aku ia ia, Ke i mai o Iehova penei; Aia hoi, e haawi no wau i keia kulanakauhale iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babulona, a e puhi no oia ia wahi i ke ahi.
Thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, Go and speak to Zedekiah the king of Judah, and say to him, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will give up this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, that he may burn it with fire:
3 Aole hoi oe e pakale mai kona lima aku, aka, e pio io no oe, a e haawiia iloko o kona lima; a e ike aku no kou mau maka i na maka o ke alii o Babulona, a e kamailio no kona waha me kou waha, a e hele no oe i Babulona.
And thou thyself shalt not escape out of his hand; but thou shalt surely be caught, and be delivered into his hand; and thy eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak with thy mouth, and to Babylon shalt thou go.
4 E Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, e hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova; Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova nou, Aole oe e make i ka pahikaua;
Yet hear the word of the Lord, O Zedekiah king of Judah, Thus hath said the Lord respecting thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword:
5 E make no oe maloko o ka malubia. Me ke kuni ana no na makua ou, na'lii kahiko mamua ou, pela no lakou e kuni ai i na mea ala nou. A e kanikau lakou ia oe, Auwe ka haku! Ua hai aku no wau i ka olelo, wahi a Iehova.
In peace shalt thou die; and as burnings were made for thy fathers, the former kings who were before thee, so shall they make burnings for thee; and “Ah lord” shall they lament for thee; for I have spoken the word, saith the Lord.
6 Alaila, olelo aku no o Ieremia ke kaula i keia mau olelo a pau ia Zedekia, ko alii o ka Iuda ma Ierusalema;
And Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto Zedekiah the king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem,
7 A kaua ko alii o ko Babulona poe kaua ia Ierusalema, a i ua kulanakauhale a pau i koe o ka Iuda, ia Lakisa, a ia Azeka; no ka mea, o keia mau kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa i koe o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda.
When the army of the king of Babylon was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against 'Azekah; for these had been left of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
8 O ka olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, mahope iho o ka Zedekia hana ana i berita me ka poe kanaka a pau ma Ierusalema, e kala aku i ko lakou noho kauwa ole ana;
The word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, after king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim among themselves freedom;
9 I kuu wale aku kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwakane, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwawahine, ina he Heberakane, a ina he Heberawahine, i hoopaa ole ai kekahi i kona hoahanau Hebera i kauwa luhi wale nana.
That every man should dismiss his man-servant, and every man his maid-servant, being a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, free; so that no man among them should exact labor of a Jew, his brother.
10 A lohe na'lii a pau, a me na kanaka a pau i komo i ka berita, e hookuu ana kela mea keia mea i kana kauwakane, a o kela mea keia mea i kana kauwawahine, i ole lakou e hoopaa ia lakou i kauwa, alaila hoolohe ae la lakou, a kuu ae la.
And all the princes had hearkened, with all the people, who had entered into the covenant, that every one should dismiss his man-servant, and every one his maid-servant, free, that no one should exact labor of them any more: and they had obeyed, and dismissed them.
11 A mahope iho, huli lakou, a hoihoi ae la lakou i na kauwakane, a me na kauwawahine a lakou i kuu iho ai, a hookauwa ae la ia lakou i kauwakane, a i kauwawahine.
But they had turned afterward, and they had brought back the men-servants and the maid-servants whom they had dismissed as free, and had subjected them to become men-servants and maid-servants.
12 Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i mai la,
And the word of the Lord [then] came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
13 Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei; Hana aku la au i berita me ko oukou poe kupuna, i ka la a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a mai ka hale mai o ka poe kauwa, i mai la,
Thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, —I myself made a covenant with your fathers on the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying,
14 I ka pau ana o na makahiki ehiku e kuu aku oukou, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hoahanau i ka Hebera i kuaiia nou; a hookauwa mai oia nau no na makahiki eono, alaila e kuu wale aku oe ia ia, mai ou aku la; aole nae i hoolohe mai ko oukou mau kupuna i ka'u, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao.
At the end of seven years shall ye dismiss every man his brother the Hebrew, who may have been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, then shalt thou dismiss him from thee; but your fathers hearkened not unto me, and inclined not their ear.
15 Ano iho nei, ua hoohuliia oukou, a ua hana pono kela kanaka keia kanaka imua ou i ke kukala ana aku i ka hookuu wale ia o kona hoalauna: a ua hana hoi oukou i berita imua o'u ma ka hale i heaia ko'u inoa maluna ona:
And ye had turned this day, and done what is right in my eyes, to proclaim freedom every man to his neighbor; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house over which my name is called;
16 Aka, ua huli oukou, a ua hoohaumia i ko'u inoa, a ua hoihoi mai kela kanaka keia kanaka i kaua kauwakane, o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kana kauwawahine a lakou i kuu wale ai ma ko lakou makemake, a ua hookauwa hou ia lakou, i lilo lakou i kauwakane a i kauwawahine na oukou.
But ye have turned again, and profaned my name, and ye have brought back every man his man-servant, and every man his woman-servant, whom ye had dismissed as free at their pleasure, and have subjected them to be unto you for men-servants and for women-servants.
17 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aole oukou i hoolohe mai ia'u ma ke kukala ana i ke kuu wale ia o kela kanaka no kona hoahanau, o kela kanaka no kona hoalauna. Aia hoi, ke kukala aku nei au i ke kuu wale ia oukou i ka pahikaua, a i ka mai ahulau, a i ka wi, a e hooauhee aku au ia oukou iloko o na aupuni a pau o ka honua.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Ye indeed have not hearkened unto me, to proclaim freedom, every one to his brother, and every one to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim a freedom over you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 A e haawi no wau i na kanaka i lawehala i ka'u berita, o ka poe i hana ole ma na olelo o ka berita a lakou i hana'i imua o'u, ia lakou i oki ae i ke keikihipa mawaena, a hele ae mawaena o kona mau apana.
And I will give up the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not fulfilled the words of the covenant which they had made before me, at the calf which they cut in twain, and between the parts whereof they passed,
19 O na'lii o ka Iuda a me na'lii o Ierusalema, na luna a me na kahuna, a me na kanaka a pau o ka aina, ka poe i hele mawaena o na apana o ke keikibipi;
The princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the court-servants, and the priests, and all the people of the land, who have passed between the parts of the calf;
20 E haawi no wau ia lakou iloko o ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe e imi ana i ko lakou ola. A e lilo no ko lakou kupapau i mea ai na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua.
[Yea] I will give them up into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life; and their dead bodies shall become food unto the fowls of the heavens, and to the beasts of the earth.
21 A e haawi no hoi au ia Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, a me kana poe alii i ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, iloko o ka lima o ka poe e imi ana i ko lakou ola, a iloko o ka lima o ka poe kaua o ke alii o Babulona, ka poe i pii aku, mai o oukou aku nei.
And Zedekiah the king of Judah and his princes will I give up into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life, and into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, that are [now] gone away from you.
22 Na'u no e kauoha aku, wahi a Iehova, a e hoihoi mai ia lakou i keia kulanakauhale; a e kaua mai lakou ia wahi, a e hoopio, a e puhi ia wahi i ke ahi. A e hoolilo wau i na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda i mehameha, aohe mea e noho ana.
Behold, I will command, speaketh the Lord, and I will bring them back to this city; and they shall fight against it, and capture it, and burn it with fire: and the cities of Judah will I make a desert without an inhabitant.
