Ieremia 17
1 U A palapalaia ka hewa o ka Iuda, me ka peni hao, me kahi oi hoi o ka daimana; ua kahakahaia hoi ma ka papa o ko lakou naau, a ma na pepeiaohao o ke kuahu;
“The sin of Judah is written with an iron stylus having a diamond point. It is engraved on the tablet of their hearts and on the horns of your altars.
2 I ka hoomanao ana o ka lakou keiki i ko lakou kuahu, a me ko lakou ululaau ma na laau uliuli maluna o na puu kiekie.
Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles that were beside the spreading trees and on the high hills.
3 E kuu mauna ma ke kula, e haawi no wau i kou waiwai, a me kou ukana a pau i pio, a me kou mau wahi kiekie i hewa, ma kou mau mokuna a pau.
My mountain in the open country, and your wealth and all your treasures I will give away as plunder, together with your high places, because of the sin you committed in all your territories.
4 A o oe, e hele aku no oe, mai kou hooilina aku, ka mea a'u i haawi aku ai ia oe; a e hoolilo aku au ia oe i kauwa na kou poe enemi ma ka aina au i ike ole ai: no ka mea, ua hoa oukou i ke ahi ma kuu ukiuki, a e a mau loa aku no ia.
You will lose the inheritance that I gave to you. I will enslave you to your enemies in a land that you do not know, for you have ignited a fire in my wrath, which will burn forever.”
5 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E poino ana ke kanaka i hilinai i ke kanaka, a manao iho la i ka io i ikaika nona, a haalele kona naau ia Iehova.
Yahweh says, “The person who trusts in mankind is accursed; he makes flesh his strength but turns his heart away from Yahweh.
6 E like auanei ia me kahi i haaleleia maloko o ka waonahele, aole ia e ike i ka wa e hiki mai ai ka maikai; aka, e noho no oia ma na wahi maloo ma ka waonahele, ma ka aina hua ole, a noho ole ia.
For he will be like a small bush in the Arabah and will not see anything good coming. He will stay in the stony places in the wilderness, barren land without inhabitants.
7 Pomaikai ke kanaka i hilinai aku ia Iehova, a o Iehova hoi kona mea e manaolana'i.
But the person who trusts in Yahweh is blessed, for Yahweh is his reason for confidence.
8 E like auanei ia me ka laau i kanuia ma na wai, a kupu ae la kona mau aa ma kahi mau; aole hoi ia e ike i ka hiki ana mai o ka wela; aka, e uliuli no kona lau; a i ka makahiki wi, aole ia e makau, aole hoi e hooki oia i ka hoohua ana mai i ka hua.
For he will be like a tree planted by water, its roots will spread out by the stream. It will not fear the heat when it comes, for its leaves are always green. It is not anxious in a year of drought, and it will not stop producing fruit.
9 He hoopunipuni ka naau mamua o na mea a pau, a ua hewa loa hoi ia; owai ka mea hiki ke hoomaopopo?
The heart is more deceitful than anything else. It is sick; who can understand it?
10 Owau, o Iehova, ke huli nei au i ka naau, ke hoao nei au i ka opu, e haawi i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kona mau aoao, e like hoi me ka hua o kana mau hana.
I am Yahweh, the one who searches through the mind, who tests the hearts. I give to each person according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.
11 E like me ka manu aihue i hoopunana i na hua ana i hanau ole ai; pela no ka mea i loaa ka waiwai ma ka pono ole, iwaenakonu o kona mau la, e waiho oia ia mea, a i kona hope, e lapuwale oia.
A partridge hatches an egg that she did not lay. Someone may become rich unjustly, but when half his days are over, those riches will abandon him, and in the end he will be a fool.”
12 He nohoalii nani kiekie loa, mai kinohi mai, oia kahi o ko makou keenakapu.
“The place of our temple is a glorious throne, elevated from the beginning.
13 E Iehova, ka mea e manaolana'i o ka Iseraela, o ka poe a pau e haalele ia oe, e hilahila auanei lakou, a o ka poe e haalele ia'u, e kahakahaia lakou ma ka honua, no ka mea, ua haalele lakou ia Iehova, i ke kumu o na wai ola.
Yahweh is the hope of Israel. All who abandon you will be put to shame; those in the land who turn away from you will be written in the earth, for they have forsaken Yahweh, the fountain of living waters.
14 E hoola mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, a e hoolaia mai no wau; e hoopakele mai oe ia'u a e hoopakeleia mai no wau; no ka mea, o oe no ka'u e kaena ai.
Heal me, Yahweh, and I will be healed! Rescue me, and I will be rescued. For you are my song of praise.
15 Aia hoi, ke olelo mai nei lakou ia'u, Auhea ka olelo a Iehova? E hele mai ia, ano.
See, they are saying to me, 'Where is the word of Yahweh? Let it come!'
16 Aole au i hoolalelale ia'u iho mai ka noho kahuhipa ana, e hahai mamuli ou, aole hoi au i makemake ia la kaumaha, ua ike no oe. O ka mea i puka aku iwaho o ko'u mau lehelehe, ua pololei no ia imua ou.
As for me, I did not run from being a shepherd following you. I did not long for the day of disaster. You know the proclamations that came from my lips. They were made in your presence.
17 Mai lilo oe i mea makau no'u; o oe no ko'u mea e manaolana'i, i ka la o ka hewa.
Do not be a terror to me. You are my refuge on the day of calamity.
18 E hoohilahilaia ka poe hoomaau mai ia'u, mai hookuu ia'u i ka hoohilahilaia. E hoopilihua ia lakou, mai hookuu ia'u i ka hoopilihuaia. E lawe mai oe maluna o lakou i ka la o ka hewa, a e luku hoi oe ia lakou i ka luku papalua.
May my pursuers be ashamed, but do not let me be ashamed. May they be dismayed, but do not let me be dismayed. Send the day of disaster against them and shatter them with a double share of destruction.”
19 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ia'u penei, O hele, e ku ma ka pukapa o na keiki a ko'u poe kanaka, kahi e komo mai ai na'lii o ka Iuda, ma kahi hoi e puka aku ai lakou iwaho, a ma na pukapa a pau hoi o Ierusalema;
Yahweh said this to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the people where the kings of Judah enter and where they exit, then in all the other gates of Jerusalem.
20 A e i aku ia lakou, E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e na'lii o ka Iuda, a me ka Iuda a pau, a me ka poe a pau e noho ana ma Ierusalema, ka poe komo iloko, ma keia mau pukapa.
Say to them, 'Hear the word of Yahweh, kings of Judah and all you people of Judah, and every resident of Jerusalem who comes in through these gates.
21 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E malama oukou i ko oukou kino iho; mai halihali oukou i ka mea halihali i ka la Sabati, aole hoi e lawe mai iloko, ma na pukapa o Ierusalema.
Yahweh says this: “Be careful for the sake of your lives and do not carry a burden on the Sabbath day to bring it to the gates of Jerusalem.
22 Mai lawe aku hoi i ka haawe mawaho aku o ko oukou mau hale i ka la Sabati; mai hana hoi i kekahi hana; aka, e hoano oukou i ka la Sabati, me au i kauoha aku ai i ko oukou poe kupuna.
Do not bring a load out from your house on the Sabbath day. Do not do any work, but set apart the Sabbath day, just as I commanded your ancestors to do.”'
23 Aole lakou i hoolohe, aole hoi i haliu mai i ko lakou mau pepeiao, aka, hooolea lakou i ko lakou a-i i mea e lohe ole ai lakou, i mea hoi, e loaa ole ai ia lakou ka naauao.
They did not listen or pay attention, but stiffened their neck so they would not hear me nor accept discipline.
24 A ina e hoolohe pono mai oukou ia'u, wahi a Iehova, a lawe ole i ka mea lawe maloko o na pukapa o ke kulanakauhale i ka la Sabati: aka, hoano oukou i ka la Sabati, a hana ole i kekahi hana ia la;
It will happen that if you truly listen to me—this is Yahweh's declaration—and do not bring a load to the gates of this city on the Sabbath day but instead set apart the Sabbath day to Yahweh and not do any work on it,
25 Alaila, e komo mai no iloko o na pukapa o keia kulanakauhale, na'lii, a me na luna, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii o Davida, e holo ana hoi maloko o na halekaa, a maluna o na lio, o lakou, a me ko lakou luna, o na kanaka o ka Iuda, a me ka poe noho ma Ierusalema; a e hoomau loa ia aku no keia kulanakauhale.
then kings, princes, and those who sit on David's throne will come to the gates of this city in chariots and with horses, they and their leaders, men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, and this city will be inhabited forever.
26 A e hele mai no lakou, mai na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda mai, a no na wahi mawaho o Ierusalema a puni, a mai ka aina o Beniamina mai, a mai na papu mai, a mai na mauna mai, a mai ke kukuluhema mai, e lawe ana i na mohnikuni, a me na alana, a me na mohai makana, a me ka mea ala, e lawe ana hoi i na mea aloha, a i ka hale o Iehova.
They will come from the cities of Judah and from all around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin and the lowlands, from the mountains, and from the Negev, bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and frankincense, thank offerings to the house of Yahweh.
27 Aka, ina aole oukou e hoolohe mai ia'u, e hoano i ka la Sabati, a e lawe ole hoi i ka mea lawe, e komo ana hoi iloko ma na pukapa o Ierusalema i ka la Sabati; alaila, e hoa no wau i ke ahi ma kona mau pukapa, a e hoopau no ia i na hale alii o Ierusalema, aole hoi ia e kinaiia.
But if you do not listen to me—to set apart the Sabbath day and to not carry heavy loads and to not enter the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day—then I will light a fire in its gates, and it will consume the fortresses of Jerusalem, and it cannot be put out.”
