Ieremia 40
1 KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, mahope iho o ko Nebuzaradana, ko ka lunakaua lawepio ana ia ia, a ua hookuu aku ia ia mai Rama aku, no ka mea, ua hoopaa oia ia ia i na kaulahao, me ka poe pio a pau o Ierusalema, a me ka Iuda, ka poe i lawe pio ia i Babulona.
The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH, after Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has sent him from Ramah, in his taking him—and he a prisoner in chains—in the midst of all the expulsion of Jerusalem and of Judah, who are removed to Babylon.
2 Lawe ae la ka lunakaua ia Ieremia, i mai la ia ia, Ua olelo no o Iehova kou Akua, i keia hewa no keia wahi.
And the chief of the executioners takes Jeremiah and says to him, “Your God YHWH has spoken this calamity concerning this place,
3 Na Iehova hoi ia i lawe mai, a hana e like me kana olelo ana. No ka oukou hana hewa ana ia Iehova, me ka hoolohe ole i kona leo, nolaila i hiki mai ai keia mea maluna o oukou.
and YHWH brings [it] in, and does as He spoke, because you have sinned against YHWH, and have not listened to His voice, even this thing has been to you.
4 Aia hoi, ke kala aku nei au ia oe i keia la, i na kaulahao ma kou lima. Ina he mea maikai i kou mau maka, ke hele pu me au i Babulona, o hele, a e kau no ko'u mau maka maluna ou. Aka, ina he mea ino i kou mau maka ke hele pu me au i Babulona, ua oki no: e nana hoi, aia no ka aina a pau imua ou, ma kahi maikai a pono i kou mau maka ke hele oe, malaila oe e hele ai.
And now, behold, I have loosed you today from the chains that [are] on your hand; if [it is] good in your eyes to come with me [to] Babylon, come, and I keep my eye on you: and if [it is] evil in your eyes to come with me to Babylon, refrain; see, all the land [is] before you, to where [it is] good, and to where [it is] right in your eyes to go—go.”
5 A mamua o kona hoi ana, i ae la ia, E hoi aku oe ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, ka mea a ke alii o Babulona i hoonoho ai i kiaaina maluna o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a e noho oe me ia iwaena pu me na kanaka; a ma kahi pono i kou mau maka ke hele, malaila oe e hele ai. A haawi mai la ka lunakaua, i ai nana, a i makana no hoi, a hookuu mai la ia ia.
And while he does not reply—“Or turn back to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him in the midst of the people, or wherever it is right in your eyes to go—go.” And the chief of the executioners gives a ration and gift to him, and sends him away,
6 Alaila, hele ae la o Ieremia io Gedalia la i ke keiki a Ahikama, ma Mizepa; a noho pu me ia iwaena o na kanaka i koe ma ka aina.
and Jeremiah comes to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and dwells with him in the midst of the people who are left in the land.
7 A lohe na luna o ka poe koa a pau ma na papu, o lakou a me ko lakou poe kanaka, ua hoonoho ke alii o Babulona ia Gedalia i kiaaiua no ka aina, a ua haawi mai i kanaka nona, a me na wahine a me na kamalii, i na mea hune hoi o ka aina, i ka poe i lawe pio ole ia i Babulona;
And all the heads of the forces that [are] in the field hear, they and their men, that the king of Babylon has appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam over the land, and that he has charged him [with] men, and women, and infants, and of the poor of the land, of those who have not been removed to Babylon;
8 Alaila, hele mai la ia Gedalia, ma Mizepa, o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania, a me Iohanana, a me Ionatana, na keiki a Karea, a me Saraia, ke keiki a Tanehumeta, a me na keiki a Epai no Netopati, a me Iezania, ke keiki a ka Maaka, o lakou a me ko lakou poe kanaka.
and they come to Gedaliah at Mizpah, even Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan [the] sons of Kareah, and Seraiah son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah son of the Maachathite, they and their men.
9 A hoohiki o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, ia lakou, a me ko lakou poe kanaka, i ae la, Mai makau ke hookauwa aku no ko Kaledea. E noho no ma ka aina, a e hookauwa aka no ke alii o Babulona, a e pomaikai auanei oukou.
And Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, swears to them and to their men, saying, “Do not be afraid of serving the Chaldeans, abide in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it is well for you;
10 Owau hoi, e noho no wau ma Mizepa, e hoolaulea i ko Kaledea i hele mai ia kakou. A o oukou hoi, e hoiliili oukou i ka waina, a me na hua o ke kau, a me ka aila, a e ukuhi iloko o ko oukou hue, a e noho ma na kulanakauhale a oukou e noho nei.
and I, behold, I am dwelling in Mizpah to stand before the Chaldeans who have come to us, and you, gather wine, and summer fruit, and oil, and put [them] in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that you have taken.”
11 Alaila, o na Iudaio a pau, e noho ana ma Moaba, a iwaena hoi o ka Amona, a me Edoma, a ma na aina a pau, ia lakou i lohe ai, ua waiho mai ke alii o Babulona i koena o ka Iuda, a ua hoonoho ia Gedalia ke keiki a Ahikama, ke keiki a Sapana, maluna o lakou;
And also all the Jews who [are] in Moab, and among the sons of Ammon, and in Edom, and who [are] in all the lands, have heard that the king of Babylon has given a remnant to Judah, and that he has appointed over them Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan,
12 Hoi ae la na Iudaio a pau, mai loko mai o na wahi a pau a lakou i kipakuia'i, a hele mai la io Gedalia la, ma Mizepa, a hoiliili i ka waina a me na hua o ke kau he nui loa.
and all the Jews from all the places to where they have been driven, return and enter the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and they gather wine and summer fruit—to multiply abundantly.
13 Alaila, hele mai la o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, a me na luna o na koa a pau e noho ana ma na papu io Gedalia la, ma Mizepa,
And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces that [are] in the field, have come to Gedaliah at Mizpah,
14 I mai la ia ia, Ua ike pono anei oe, ua hoouna mai o Baalisa, ke alii o ka Amona, ia Isemaela, i ke keiki a Netania, e pepehi ia oe? Aole i manao o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, he oiaio ka lakou.
and they say to him, “Do you really know that Ba‘alis king of the sons of Ammon has sent Ishmael son of Nethaniah to strike your soul?” And Gedaliah son of Ahikam has not given credence to them.
15 A olelo malu mai la o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea ia Gedalia, ma Mizepa, i mai, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai ia'u, e hele, a e pepehi no wau ia Isemaela i ke keiki a Netania, me ka ike ole o kekahi kanaka. No ke aha la oia e pepehi ai ia oe, i hooauheeia'i na Iudaio a pau i akoakoa mai iou la, a make hoi ke koena o ka Iuda?
And Johanan son of Kareah has spoken to Gedaliah in secret, in Mizpah, saying, “Please let me go, and I strike Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and no one knows; why does he strike your soul? And all Judah who are gathered to you have been scattered, and the remnant of Judah has perished.”
16 Alaila, olelo aku la o Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama, ia Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, Mai hana oe ia mea, no ka mea, he wahahee kau e olelo mai nei no Isemaela.
And Gedaliah son of Ahikam says to Johanan son of Kareah, “You do not do this thing, for you are speaking falsehood concerning Ishmael.”
