Ieremia 37

1 NOHO aupuni iho la o Zedekia ke alii, ke keiki a Iosia, ma ka hakahaka o Konia, ke keiki a Iehoiakima. na Nebukaneza i hoonoho ia ia i alii ma ka aina o ka Iuda.

Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned as king, instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.

2 Aole oia, aole kana poe kauwa, aole hoi na kanaka o ka aina i hoolohe i na olelo a Iehova, ana i olelo mai ai ma ke kaula ma Ieremia.

But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, listened to the words of the LORD, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.

3 A hoouna ae la o Zedekia, ke alii ia Iehukala, ke keiki a Selemia, a me Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia ke kahuna, io Ieremia la, i ae la, E pule oe ia Iehova, i ko kakou Akua, no kakou.

Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, "Pray now to the LORD our God for us."

4 Hele mai la o Ieremia iloko. a puka aku la iwaho iwaena o na kanaka; no ka mea, ia manawa aole lakou i hoolei ia ia iloko o ka hale paahao.

Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people; for they had not put him into prison.

5 Alaila, ua hele mai ka poe kaua o Parao, mai Aigupita mai; a lohe ko Kaledea, ka poe e hoopilikia ana ia Ierusalema i ka olelo no lakou, alaila haalele lakou ia Ierusalema.

Pharaoh's army had come forth out of Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they broke up from Jerusalem.

6 Alaila, hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova i ke kaula, ia Ieremia, i mai la,

Then came the word of the LORD to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

7 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela; Penei oe e olelo aku ai i ke alii o ka Iuda, ka mea i hoouna mai ia oe io'u nei e ninau mai ia'u; Aia hoi, o ka poe kaua o Parao i hele e kokua ia oukou, e hoi hou no lakou i ko lakou aina iho.

"Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'You shall tell the king of Judah, who sent you to me to inquire of me: "Look, Pharaoh's army, which has come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land.

8 A e hele hou mai no ko Kaledea e kaua i keia kulanakauhale, a e hoopio no lakou i keia wahi, a e puhi hoi i ke ahi.

The Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city; and they shall take it, and burn it with fire."

9 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Mai hoopunipuni oukou ia oukou iho, me ka olelo, E hele aku ko Kaledea, mai o kakou aku; no ka mea, aole lakou e hele aku.

Thus says the LORD, "Do not deceive yourselves, saying, 'The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us'; for they shall not depart.

10 Ina paha, ua luku oukou i ka poe kaua a pau o ko Kaledea, na mea i kaua mai ia oukou, a koe kekahi mau kanaka wale no i hoehaia, e ku hou mai no kela mea keia mea iloko o kona halelewa, a e puhi i keia kulanakauhale i ke ahi.

For though you had struck the whole army of the Chaldeans who fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yes would they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire."'"

11 A i ka wa i pii aku ai ka poe kaua o Kaledea mai Ierusalema aku no ka makau i ka poe kaua o Parao,

It happened that, when the army of the Chaldeans was broken up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh's army,

12 Alaila, hele aku la o Ieremia iwaho o Ierusalema e hele i ka aina o ka Beniamina, e hookaawale ia ia iho malaila iwaena o na kanaka.

then Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to receive his portion there, in the midst of the people.

13 A hiki oia i ka pukapa o ka Beniamina, aia malaila kekahi luna, o Iriia kona inoa, he keiki na Selemia, ke keiki a Hanania. A lalau iho la oia ia Ieremia i ke kaula, i ae la, Ke iho aku nei oe i ko Kaledea.

When he was in the Benjamin Gate, a captain of the guard was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he laid hold on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "You are falling away to the Chaldeans."

14 Alaila, olelo aku la o Ieremia, he wahahee, aole e iho aku i ko Kaledea. Aole nae ia i hoolohe mai i kana; aka, lalau mai la o Iriia ia Ieremia, a lawe aku la ia ia i na'lii.

Then Jeremiah said, "It is false; I am not falling away to the Chaldeans." But he did not listen to him; so Irijah laid hold on Jeremiah, and brought him to the officials.

15 A huhu mai la na'lii ia Ieremia, a hahau mai la ia ia, a hoolei ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, ma ka hale o Ionatana, ke kakauolelo; no ka mea, ua hoolilo lakou ia hale, i wahi paahao.

And the officials were angry with Jeremiah, and struck him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe; for they had made that the prison.

16 A ua komo o Ieremia iloko o ka luapaahao, a iloko o na keena, a he nui na la o kona noho ana malaila;

When Jeremiah had come into the dungeon house, and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days;

17 Alaila, hoouna mai la o Zedekia, ke alii, a lawe mai la ia ia iwaho. A ninau malu mai la ke alii ia ia ma kona hale, i mai la, He olelo anei mai Iehova mai? I aku la o Ieremia, He olelo no; no ka mea, ua olelo mai oia, E haawiia no oe iloko o ka lima o ke alii o Babuloua.

Then Zedekiah the king sent, and fetched him: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, "Is there any word from the LORD?" Jeremiah said, "There is." He said also, "You shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon."

18 Olelo aku la no hoi o Ieremia i ke alii ia Zedekia, Heaha ka hewa a'u i hana aku ai ia oe, a i kau poe kauwa, a i keia poe kanaka, i hahao ai oukou ia'u iloko o ka halepaahao?

Moreover Jeremiah said to king Zedekiah, "Wherein have I sinned against you, or against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison?

19 Auhea ko oukou poe kaula, ka poe i wanaua mai ia oukou me ka olelo iho, Aole hele ku e mai ke alii o Babulona ia oukou, aole hoi ku e i keia aina?

Where now are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land?

20 Nolaila, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe e hoolohe mai, e kuu Haku ke alii. Ke nonoi aku nei au, i aeia mai ka'u nonoi ana imua ou, i ole oe e hoihoi ia'u i ka hale o Ionatana, ke kakauolelo, o make auanei au malaila.

Now please hear, my lord the king: please let my petition be presented before you, that you not cause me to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there."

21 Alaila, kauoha ae la o Zedekia, ke alii, e hoonoho lakou ia Ieremia ma ke kahua o ka halepaahao, i haawi hoi lakou nana, i kela la i keia la i hookahi apana berena, mai ke alanui mai o ka poe kahu palaoa, a hiki i ka manawa e hoopauia'i ka berena o ke kulanakauhale. A noho iho la o Ieremia ma ke kahua o ka halepaahao.

Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard; and they gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city was spent. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
