Ieremia 7
1 O KA olelo keia i hiki mai ai io Ieremia la, mai o Iehova mai, i mai la.
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 E ku oe ma ka puka o ka hale o Iehova, a malaila oe e kala aku ai i keia olelo, a e i aku. E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e ka Iuda a pau i komo nei iloko o na pukapa e hoomana ia Iehova.
“Stand in the gate of the LORD’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.’”
3 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei. E hoomaikai oukou i ko oukou mau aoao, a me ka oukou hana ana, a na'u no e hoonoho loa ia oukou ma keia wahi.
The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Mai hilinai oukou ma na olelo wahahee, me ka olelo iho, Ka luakini o Iehova, Ka luakini o Iehova, Ka luakini o Iehova, keia mau mea.
Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘The LORD’s temple, the LORD’s temple, the LORD’s temple, are these.’
5 No ka mea, ina hoomaikai oiaio oukou i ko oukou mau aoao, a me ka oukou hana ana; ina e hana oiaio oukou i ka pono mawaena o ke kanaka, a me kona hoa;
For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
6 Ina hookaumaha ole oukou i ka malihini. i na keiki makua ole, a me na wahine kanemake, a hookahe ole i ke koko hala ole ma keia wahi, aole hoi e hele mamuli o na'kua e, i mea e hewa'i oukou;
if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt,
7 Alaila, e hoonoho loa au ia oukou i keia wahi i ka aina a'u i haawi aku ai i ko oukou poe makua, a mau loa aku no.
then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.
8 Aia hoi, ke hilinai nei no oukou i na wahahee hope ole.
Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit.
9 E aihue anei oukou, a pepehi kanaka, a moe kolohe, a e hoike wahahee, a e kuni i ka mea ala no Baala, a e hele mamuli o na'kua e a oukou i ike ole ai?
Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,
10 A e hele mai anei, a ku imua o'u iloko o keia hale, ka mea i heaia ma ko'u inoa, a e olelo iho, Ua hoolaia makou, i hana makou i keia mau mea hoopailua a pau?
then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered,’ that you may do all these abominations?
11 O keia hale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, ua lilo anei ia i lua no ka poe powa i ko oukou mau maka? Aia hoi, ua ike no wau, wahi a Iehova.
Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it,” says the LORD.
12 Aka, e hele oukou, ano, i ko'u hale ma Silo, i kahi a'u i waiho ai i ko'u inoa i kinohi, a e ike hoi i ka mea a'u i hana'i ia wahi no ka hewa o ko'u poe kanaka no ka Iseraela.
“But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 A no ka oukou hana ana i keia mau mea a pau, wahi a Iehova; a olelo aku hoi au ia oukou, me ke ala ae i ka wauaao e olelo, aole nae oukou i hoolohe: a hea aku no hoi au ia oukou, aole oukou i o mai;
Now, because you have done all these works,” says the LORD, “and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn’t hear; and I called you, but you didn’t answer;
14 Nolaila, e hana aku no au i keia hale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, ka mea a oukou e hilinai nei, a i kahi hoi a'u i haawi aku ai ia oukou a i ko oukou poe makua, e like me ka'u i hana'i ia Silo.
therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.
15 A e kipaku aku no au ia oukou, mai ko'u ale aku, e like me ka'u i kipaku aku ai i ko oukou poe hoahanau a pau, i ka hanauna a pau hoi o ka Eperaima.
I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring of Ephraim.
16 Nolaila, mai pule oe, no keia poe kanaka, aole hoi e hookiekie i ka leo, a me ka nouoi ana no lakou, aole hoi e uwao iho no lakou; no ka mea, aole loa au e hoolohe aku ia oe.
“Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up a cry or prayer for them or make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
17 Aole anei oe i ike i na mea a lakou e hana nei ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema?
Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Hoiliili no na keiki i ka wahie, a hoa na makuakane i ke ahi, a kaawili na wahine i ka palaoa, e hana i papapalaoa no ke alii wahine o ka lani, a uinini i ka mohai inu no na akua e, i mea e hoonaukiuki mai ai ia'u.
The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19 E hoonankiuki mai anei lakou ia'u, wahi a Iehova? Aole anei ia e lilo ia lakou i mea e hoopalai loa ai ko lakou mau maka?
Do they provoke me to anger?” says the LORD. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?”
20 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua penei, Aia hoi, e nininiia'ku no ko'u huhu, a me ko'u ukiuki maluna o keia wahi, maluna o ke kanaka, a maluna o ka holoholona, a maluna o na laau o ke kula, a maluna o ka hua o ka lepo; a e a no ia, aole ia e hoopioia.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched.”
21 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, E hui oukou i ko oukou mohaikuni me ko oukou alana, a e ai i ka io.
The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat.
22 No ka mea, aole au i olelo aku i ko oukou poe makua, a i ka la a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou mai Aigupita mai, aole au i kauoha ia lakou no na mohai kuni, a me na alana:
For I didn’t speak to your fathers or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices;
23 Aka, o keia ka'u i kauoha aku ai ia lakou, i aku la, E malama i ko'u leo, a owau auanei ko oukou Akua, a o oukou auanei ko'u poe kanaka, a e hele hoi oukou ma na aoao a pau a'u i kauoha aku ai ia oukou, i mea e pomaikai ai oukou.
but this thing I commanded them, saying, ‘Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’
24 Aka, aole lakou i hoolohe mai, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao, aka, hele no lakou ma ka noonoo ana a ma ka paakiki o ko lakou naau hewa, a hoihope lakou, aole i hele mua.
But they didn’t listen or turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
25 Mai ka la i hele mai ai ko oukou poe kupuna mai Aigupita mai, a hiki loa mai i keia la, ua hoouna aku au io oukou la, i ka'u poe kauwa a pau, i na kaula hoi, e ala ana i ka wanaao i kela la i keia la no ka hoouna aku.
Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them.
26 Aole nae lakou i hoolohe mai ia'u, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao, aka, hooolea no i ko lakou a-i. Kela aku no ka lakou hana hewa ana, i ka na makua o lakou.
Yet they didn’t listen to me or incline their ear, but made their neck stiff. They did worse than their fathers.
27 Nolaila oe e olelo aku ai i keia mau olelo a pau ia lakou; aka, aole no lakou e hoolohe mai ia oe. E hea aku oe ia lakou; aka, aole no lakou e o mai i kau.
“You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.
28 E olelo no nae oe ia lakou, He lahuikanaka keia i hoolohe ole i ka leo o Iehova o ko lakou Akua, aole hoi lakou i hoonaauao. Ua make ka oiaio, a ua hookiia mai ko lakou waha aku.
You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to the LORD their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’
29 E ako oe i kou lauoho, a e hoolei aku, a e olo ka pihe maluna o na wahi kiekie; no ka mea, ua hoole o Iehova, a ua haalele hoi i ka hanauna o kona ukiuki
Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
30 No ka mea, ua hana hewa na kieki a Iuda imua o ko'u alo, wahi a Iehova; ua waiho lakou i ko lakou mea e hoopailua'i maloko o ka hale i kapaia ma ko'u inoa, e hoohaumia ia wahi.
“For the children of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight,” says the LORD. “They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
31 A ua hana lakou i na wahi kiekie o Topeta; aia no ia maloko o ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, e puhi i ka lakou keiki kane, a me ka lakou kaikamahine iloko o ke ahi, ka mea a'u i kauoha ole ai ia lakou, aole hoi i komo ia iloko o ko'u naau.
They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I didn’t command, nor did it come into my mind.
32 Nolaila, aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la, wahi a Iehova, e kapa ole ia'i ia o Topeta, aole hoi o ke awawa o ke keiki a Hinoma, aka, o ke awawa o ka make; no ka mea, e kanu kupapau no lakou ma Topeta, a piha loa ia wahi.
Therefore behold, the days come”, says the LORD, “that it will no more be called ‘Topheth’ or ‘The valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’; for they will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.
33 A e lilo na kupapau o keia poe kanaka i mea ai na na manu o ka lani, a na na holoholona o ka honua, aohe mea hooweliweli ia lakou.
The dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth. No one will frighten them away.
34 Alaila, maloko o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema, e hooki no wau i ka leo o ke oli, a me ka leo o ka hauoli, a me ka leo o ke kane mare, a me ka leo o ka wahine mare; a e neoneo auanei ka aina.
Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will become a waste.”
