Ieremia 45

1 O KA olelo a Ieremia, a ke kaula i olelo ai ia Baruka ke keiki a Neria, ia ia i kakau ai i keia mau olelo maloko o ka buke, no ka waha mai o Ieremia, i ka makahiki eha o Iehoiakima, ke keiki a Iosia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la,

The worde that Ieremiah the Prophet spake vnto Baruch the sonne of Neriah, when he had written these woordes in a booke at the mouth of Ieremiah, in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, saying,

2 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela ia oe, E Baruka, penei;

Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel vnto thee, O Baruch,

3 Ua olelo mai no oe, Ano la, auwe ia'u! no ka mea, ua hooili mai o Iehova i ke kaumaha maluna o ko'u eha: Maule no au i ko'u kaniuhu ana, aole loaa ia'u ka hoomaha.

Thou diddest say, Wo is me nowe: for the Lord hath laied sorrow vnto my sorrowe: I fainted in my mourning, and I can finde no rest.

4 Penei oe e olelo ai ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aia hoi, o ka mea a'u i kukulu ai, oia ka'u e wawahi ai, a o ka mea a'u i kanu ai, oia ka'u e uhuki ai, o keia aina hoi a pau.

Thus shalt thou say vnto him, The Lord sayeth thus, Behold, that which I haue built, will I destroy, and that which I haue planted, will I plucke vp, euen this whole lande.

5 Ke imi nei anei oe i mea nui nou! Mai imi oe; no ka mea, aia hoi, e lawe mai no wau i ka hewa maluna a na mea ola a pau, wahi a Iehova; aka, e haawi no wau i kou ola ia oe, i waiwai pio nou, ma na wahi a pau au e hele aku ai.

And seekest thou great things for thy self? seeke them not: for beholde, I wil bring a plague vpon al flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life wil I giue thee for a pray in all places, whither thou goest.
