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 to Jeremiah from Jehovah, when Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the nations, made war against Jerusalem, and against all the cities thereof, 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 saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Go and speak to Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and say to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall 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 shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken and delivered into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
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 Jehovah, O Zedekiah, king of Judah! Thus saith Jehovah concerning 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 according to the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings, who were before thee, so shall they burn for thee; and they shall lament for thee, saying, “Ah, lord!” for I have spoken the word, saith Jehovah.
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 spake all these words to Zedekiah, king of Judah, at 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.
And the army of the king of Babylon fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah; for these fortified cities remained of the cities of Judah.
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 to Jeremiah from Jehovah, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people that were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
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 one should let his man-servant or his maid-servant, being a Hebrew or Hebrewess, go free, that no one should retain his brother, a Jew, in servitude.
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, and all the people, who had entered into covenant to let every one his man-servant and every one his maid-servant go free, and retain them in servitude no longer, obeyed; they obeyed, and let them go.
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 returned afterwards, and took back the men-servants and the maid-servants whom they had let go free, and brought them into subjection as men-servants and as maid-servants.
12 Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i mai la,
Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah from Jehovah, 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 saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day when I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, and said,
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 ye shall let go every man his brother, a Hebrew, who shall have been sold to thee; when he shall have served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee.” But your fathers hearkened not to me, nor inclined 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 when ye had turned at this time, and had done what was right in mine eyes, in proclaiming liberty every one to his neighbor, and had entered into a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name,
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.
then ye returned and profaned my name, and took back every one his man-servant, and every one his maid-servant, whom he had set at liberty at their pleasure, and brought them into subjection to be men-servants and maid-servants to you.
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 saith Jehovah: Ye have not hearkened to me in proclaiming liberty every one to his brother, and every one to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith Jehovah, to the sword, to pestilence, and to famine, and I will give you up to oppression in 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 make the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, like the calf which they cut in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
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 eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that 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.
I will give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of heaven, and for 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, king of Judah, and his princes, will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, even into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which are gone up 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, saith Jehovah, and cause them to return to this city, and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without an inhabitant.
