< Ieremia 49 >
1 NO na keiki a Amona, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aole anei a Iseraela na keiki? Aohe anei ona hooilina? No ke aha la hoi i noho ai o Malekama ma ko Gada? A noho hoi kona poe kanaka ma kona mau kulanakauhale?
About the people of Ammon, Yahweh says this, “Does Israel have no children? Is there no one to inherit anything in Israel? Why does Molech occupy Gad, and his people live in its cities?
2 Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la, wahi a Iehova, Na'u no e hana aku, a e loheia ka hooho kaua ma Raba o ka Amona; A e lilo ia i puu neoneo, A e puhiia kana mau kaikamahine i ke ahi. Alaila, e lilo o Iseraela i hooilina no ka poe i noho hooilina nona, wahi a Iehova.
So look, the days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when I will sound the signal for battle against Rabbah among the people of Ammon, so it will become a deserted heap and its villages will be set on fire. For Israel will possess those who possessed him,” says Yahweh.
3 E aoa, e Hesebona, no ka mea, ua anaiia o Ai; E uwe aku, e na kaikamahine o Raba, E kaei oukou ia oukou iho i ke kapa inoino; E kumakena hoi, a e holoholo ma na pa; No ka mea, e hele o Malekama iloko o ke pio ana, O kona poe kahuna a me kana mau alii.
“Howl in lament, Heshbon, for Ai will be devastated! Shout out, daughters of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth. Lament and run about in futility, for Molech is going into captivity, together with his priests and leaders.
4 No ke aha la oe e hookiekie ai ma kou mau awawa? A ma kou awawa e kahe ana, e ke kaikamahine hoihope? Ka mea hilinai ma kou mau waiwai, i ka i ana iho, Owai ka mea hele mai io'u nei?
Why do you brag about your valleys, your valleys that are so fruitful, faithless daughter? you who trust in your wealth and say, 'Who will come against me?'
5 Aia hoi, e lawe mai no wau i ka makau maluna ou, Wahi a Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, Mai ka poe a pau e noho puni ana ia oe; A e kipakuia oukou, kela kanaka, keia kanaka mai kona maka aku. Aohe mea nana e hoihoi mai i ka mea hele hewa.
See, I am about to bring terror on you—this is the declaration of Lord Yahweh of hosts— this terror will come from all those who surround you. Each one of you will be scattered before it. There will be no one to gather those running away.
6 A mahope iho, e hoihoi no wau i ke pio ana o na keiki a Amona, wahi a Iehova.
But after this I will restore the fortunes of the people of Ammon—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
7 No Edoma, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; Aole anei he akamai i koe ma Temana? Ua oki anei ke ao ana o ka poe ike? Ua hanini anei ko lakou akamai?
About Edom, Yahweh of hosts says this, “Is there no longer any wisdom to be found in Teman? Has good advice disappeared from those who have understanding? Has their wisdom become corrupted?
8 E hee oukou, e huli, e hana i ko oukou noho ana a hohonu, e ka poe noho ma Dedana; No ka mea, e lawe mai no wau i ka poino o Esau maluna ona, I ka manawa a'u e hoopai ai ia ia.
Flee! Turn back! Stay in holes in the ground, inhabitants of Dedan. For I am bringing the disaster of Esau on him at the time that I punish him.
9 Ina hele mai iou la ka poe hoiliili huawaina, Aole anei lakou e hookoe i kekahi koena hua? Ina he poe aihue i ka po, Hao iho no lakou, a pau ko lakou makemake.
If grape harvesters came to you, would they not leave a little bit behind? If thieves came in the night, would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
10 Ua hookohana no wau ia Esau, Ua wehe aku no wau i kona mau wahi huna, Aole hiki ia ia ke pee; Ua oki loa kona hua, a me kona poe hoahanau, O kona poe hoalauna hoi, a oia hoi, aole.
But I have stripped Esau bare. I have revealed his hiding places. So he will not be able to hide himself. His children, his brothers, and his neighbors are destroyed, and he is gone.
11 E waiho mai i ka oukou keiki makua ole ia'u, Na'u no lakou e hoola: E hilinai hoi ia'u kou poe wahinekanemake.
Leave your orphans behind. I will take care of their lives, and your widows can trust in me.”
12 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; Aia hoi, o ka poe hoohewa ole ia e inu i ke kiaha, Ua inu loa no lakou: O oe anei ka mea e pakele loa ana? Aole oe e pakele, e inu loa no oe.
For Yahweh says this, “See, those who did not deserve it must certainly drink some of the cup. Do you yourself think you will go without punishment? You will not, for you will certainly drink.
13 No ka mea, ua hoohiki no wau ia'u iho, wahi a Iehova, E lilo auanei o Bozera i waonahele, i mea e hoowahawahaia'i, I waoakua hoi, i mea e hoinoia'i, A e lilo no kona mau kulanakauhale i mau waoakua mau loa.
For I have sworn by myself—this is Yahweh's declaration—that Bozrah will become a horror, a disgrace, a devastation, and an object for cursing. All of its cities will become devastations forever.
14 Ua lohe no wau i ka lono, mai Iehova mai, Ua hoounaia'ku hoi ka elele i ko na aina e, E akoakoa mai oukou, E hele mai e ku e ia ia, e ku mai hoi e kaua.
I have heard news from Yahweh, and a messenger has been sent out to the nations, 'Gather together and attack her. Get ready for battle.'
15 No ka mea, aia hoi, e hoolilo no wau ia oe i mea uuku iwaena o na aina, A e hoowahawahaia no oe e na kanaka.
“For see, I have made you small compared to the other nations, despised by people.
16 O kou mea makau ia oe a me ka hookiekie o kou naau, Ka mea i hoopunipuniia'i oe, e ka mea e noho la ma na ana pohaku, Ka mea hoi nona na wahi kiekie o ka pali: Ina paha e hana oe i kou wahi punana Ma kahi i like ke kiekie me ko ka aeto, Malaila mai no wau e hoohiolo ai ia oe, wahi a Iehova.
As for your fearsomeness, your heart's pride has deceived you, inhabitants of places on the cliff, you who have occupied the highest hills so that you may make your nest high like an eagle. I will bring you down from there—this is Yahweh's declaration.
17 E lilo no hoi o Edoma i waonahele; A e kahaha auanei ka poe a pau e hele ae ma ia wahi, E hoowahawaha hoi no kona mau ino a pau.
Edom will become a horror to everyone passing by it. Every such person will tremble and hiss because all of its disasters.
18 E like me ka hiolo ana o Sodoma, a me Gomora, A me na wahi e pili ana ilaila, wahi a Iehova, Aohe kanaka e noho malaila, Aole hoi e hoomoana na keiki a kanaka ma ia wahi.
Like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors,” says Yahweh, “no one will live there; no person will stay there.
19 Aia hoi, e pii mai no oia, e like me ka liona mai ka nani o Ioredane mai, E ku e i ka noho ana o ka mea ikaika; Aka i ke amo ana o ka maka, e holo aku no oia, mailaila aku. Owai ka'u mea i waeia, e hoonoho no wau ia ia maluna ona? Owai ka mea like me au nei? Owai hoi ka mea e halawai me au? A owai ke kahuhipa e hiki ia ia ke ku imua o'u?
See, he will go up like a lion from the forests of the Jordan to the green pasturelands. For I will quickly make Edom run from it, and I will put someone who will be chosen in charge of it. For who is like me, and who will summon me? What shepherd is able to resist me?”
20 No ia mea, e hoolohe oukou i ka manao o Iehova, Ana i manao ai ia Edoma: A me kona noonoo ana i noonoo ku e i na kanaka o Temana. Oiaio no, e uhuki oia ia lakou me na mea liilii o ka ohana; Oiaio no, hooneoneo oia i ko lakou wahi noho a puni lakou.
“So listen to the plans that Yahweh has decided against Edom, the plans that he has formed against the inhabitants of Teman. They will certainly be dragged away, even the smallest flock. Their pasturelands will be turned into ruined places.
21 I ka halulu o kona haule ana, naueue no ka honua; Ma ke Kaiula, lohea no ka leo o kona uwe ana.
At the sound of their falling the earth shakes. The sound of distressed shouts is heard at the Sea of Reeds.
22 Aia hoi, e pii mai no oia, a e lele hoi e like me ka aeto, A e hohola aku i kona mau eheu maluna o Bozera; A i kela la, e like auanei ka naau o ka poe ikaika o Edoma Me ka naau o ka wahine i kona nahukuakoko ana.
See, someone will attack like an eagle, and swoop down and spread his wings over Bozrah. Then on that day, the hearts of Edom's soldiers will become like the heart of a woman in birth labor.”
23 No Damaseko. Ua hoohilahilaia o Hamata, a me Arepada hoi, No ka mea, ua lohe lakou i ka lono poino. Ua maule lakou, he weliweli ma ka moana; Aole hiki ia ia ke hoomalielie.
About Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad will be ashamed, for they have heard news of disaster. They melt away! They become as troubled as the sea, which cannot stay calm.
24 Ua emi iho o Damaseko, ua huli oia e hee, Ua loohia oia i ka makau, Ua loaa oia i ke nahu kuawili, a me ka eha, me ko ka wahine hanau keiki.
Damascus has become very weak. It turns away to flee; terror seizes it. Distress and pain seize it, like the pain of a woman giving birth.
25 Nani ke kuu ole ia o ke kulanakauhale kaulana, Ke kulanakauhale hoi o ko'u olioli ana!
How has the city of praise not been forsaken, the town of my joy?
26 Nolaila, e haule ai kona poe kanaka opiopio ma kona mau alanui, A e hooki loa ia na kanaka kaua a pau i kela la, Wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
Therefore its young men will fall in its plazas, and all the fighting men will perish on that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.”
27 E hoaa na wau i ke ahi ma ka pa o Damaseko, A e hoopau no ia i na halealii o Benehadada.
“For I will light a fire on the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the strongholds of Ben Hadad.”
28 No Kedara, a no na aupuni o Hazora, na mea a Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona e luku ai, Ke i mai o Iehova penei; E ku oukou iluna, E pii aku i Kedara, a e luku aku i na kanaka o ka hikina.
About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, Yahweh says this to Nebuchadnezzar (now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon was going to attack these places): “Arise and attack Kedar and destroy those people of the east.
29 E lawe aku no lakou i ko lakou halelewa, a me ka lakou poe hipa: E lawe hoi lakou no lakou iho i ko lakou mau paku, I ko lakou mau kiaha hoi, a me ka lakou poe kamelo; E kahea aku no keia poe ia lakou, He makau no ma na aoao a puni.
Their tents and their flocks will be taken, along with their tent curtains and all of their equipment; their camels will be led away from them, and men will shout to them, “Terror is on every side!”
30 E holo, a hiki oukou i kahi loihi, E hana oukou i ko oukou noho ana ma kahi hohonu, E ka poe noho ma Hazora, wahi a Iehova: No ka mea, ua noonoo hewa ia oukou o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, A ua imi oia i ka manao ku e ia oukou.
Flee! Wander far away! Stay in holes in the ground, inhabitants of Hazor—this is Yahweh's declaration— for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has devised a plan against you. Flee! Turn back!
31 E ku iluna, e hele i ka lahuikanaka waiwai, I ka poe noho malama ole, wahi a Iehova; I ka poe aole o lakou pani pukapa, aole kikaola, Ua noho mehameha hoi.
Arise! Attack the nation at ease, that lives in safety,” says Yahweh. “They have no gates or bars in them, and its people live by themselves.
32 E lilo ka lakou poe kamelo i waiwaipio, A me ka nui o ka lakou holoholona i waiwai lawe wale. E hoopuehu no wau ma na kukulu makani a pau, I ka poe e kahi ana i na kihi o ka umiumi; A e lawe mai no wau i ko lakou poino, mai kela aoao keia aoao a pau, wahi a Iehova.
For their camels will become plunder, and the abundance of their property will become war plunder. Then I will scatter to every wind those who cut the corners of their hair, and I will bring disaster on them from every side—this is Yahweh's declaration.
33 E lilo no hoi o Hazora i wahi noho no na ilio hihiu, I wahi neoneo mau loa hoi; Aohe kanaka e noho malaila, Aole hoi e hoomoana ke keiki a ke kanaka ma ia wahi.
Hazor will become a lair of jackals, a permanent wasteland. No one will live there; no human being will stay there.”
34 O ka olelo a Iehova i hiki mai io Ieremia la ke kaula, no Elama, i ka makamua o ke au ia Zedekia ke alii o ka Iuda, i mai la,
This is the word of Yahweh that came to Jeremiah the prophet about Elam. This happened at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, and he said,
35 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; E uhai no wau i ke kakaka o Elama, I ke poo hoi o ko lakou ikaika.
“Yahweh of hosts says this: See, I am about to break the bowmen of Elam, the main part of their power.
36 E lawe mai no hoi au maluna o Elama i na makani eha, Mai na kihi eha o ka lani mai, A e hoopuehu hoi ia lakou ma ia mau makani a pau; Aohe aina e koe, kahi e hiki ole aku ai ka poe kuewa o Elama.
For I will bring the four winds from the four corners of the heavens, and I will scatter the people of Elam to all of those winds. There is no nation to which those scattered from Elam will not go.
37 No ka mea, e hooweliweli aku au ia Elama imua o ko lakou poe enemi, Imua hoi o ka poe imi i ko lakou ola: A lawe aku no hoi au i ka hewa maluna o lakou, I ka wela no o ko'u ukiuki, wahi a Iehova: Ae hoouna aku au i ka pahikaua mahope o lakou, A hoopau wau ia lakou.
So I will shatter Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their lives. for I will bring disaster against them, the fury of my wrath—this is Yahweh's declaration— and I will send the sword after them until I have annihilated them.
38 E hoonoho wau i ko'u nohoalii ma Elama, A e anai aku hoi, mai ia wahi aku, i ke alii a me na luna, Wahi a Iehova.
Then I will put my throne in Elam and will destroy its king and leaders from there—this is Yahweh's declaration—
39 A hiki i na la mahope, e hoihoi no wau i ke pio ana o Elama, wahi a Iehova.
and it will happen in later days that I will bring back the fortunes of Elam—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
