Ieremia 39
1 I KA iwa o ka makahiki o Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda, i ka umi o ka malama, hele mai la o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona, a me kona poe kaua a pau, e ku e ia Ierusalema, a hoopilikia iho la oia ia wahi.
In the ninth year and tenth month of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came with all his army against Jerusalem and besieged it.
2 A i ka umikumamakahi o ka makahiki o Zedekia i ka ha o ka malama, i ka iwa o ka la o ka malama, pio ke kulanakauhale.
In the eleventh year and fourth month of Zedekiah, on the ninth day of the month, the city was broken into.
3 A komo mai la na luna a pau a ke alii o Babulona, a noho iho la ma ka pukapa waena, o Neregalesareza, a me Samegarenebo, a me Saresekima, ka luna o ka poe i poaia, a me Neregalesareza, ka luna o na Magoi, a me na luna i koe a pau o ke alii o Babulona.
Then all the officials of the king of Babylon came and sat in the middle gate: Nebo-Sarsekim, Samgar Nebo, and Sarsechim, an important official. Nebo-Sarsekim was a high official and all the rest were the officials of the king of Babylon.
4 A ike aku la o Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda ia lakou, a me na kanaka kaua a pau, alaila pee aku la lakou, a hele aku la iwaho o ke kulanakauhale i ka po ma ke ala o ka mahinaai o ke alii, ma ka pukapa iwaena o na pa elua; a hele aku la oia ma ke ala o ka papu.
It happened that when Zedekiah, king of Judah, and all his fighting men saw them, they fled. They went out at night from the city by the king's garden path, through the gate between the two walls. The king went out in the direction of the Arabah.
5 A hahai aku la ko Kaledea poe kaua ia lakou, a loaa o Zedekia ma na papu o Ieriko. A hoopaa lakou ia ia a lawe aku la ia ia io Nebukaneza la ke alii o Babulona, ma Ribela, ma ka aina ma Hamata, a malaila oia i hoohewa ai ia ia.
But the army of Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of the Jordan River valley near Jericho. Then they captured him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where Nebuchadnezzar passed sentence on him.
6 A pepehi ae la ke alii o Babulona i na keiki a Zedekia, ma Ribela imua hoi o kona mau maka. A pepehi no hoi ke alii o Babulona i na kanaka alii a pau o ka Iuda.
The king of Babylon slaughtered Zedekiah's sons before his own eyes at Riblah. He also slaughtered all the noblemen of Judah.
7 A poalo no hoi oia i na maka o Zedekia, a hoopaa iho la ia ia i na kaula keleawe elua, e lawe aku ia ia i Babulona.
Then he put out Zedekiah's eyes and bound him in bronze chains in order to take him to Babylon.
8 A puhi aku la ko Kaledea i ka hale o ke alii a me na hale o na kanaka i ke ahi, a hoohiolo hoi i na pa o Ierusalema.
Then the Chaldeans burned the king's house and the people's houses. They also tore down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Lawepio aku la no hoi o Nebuzaradana, ka luna kaua, i ke koena o na kanaka e noho ana ma ke kulanakauhale, a me ka poe hele, na mea i hele io na la, a me ka poe i koe a pau e koe ana, a i Babulona.
Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king's bodyguards, took into exile the rest of the people who were left in the city. This included the people who had deserted to the Chaldeans and the rest of the people who were left in the city.
10 Waiho mai nae o Nebuzaradana, ka luna kaua i ka poe ilihune o na kanaka, na mea waiwai ole, ma ka aina o ka Iuda, a haawi mai la ia lakou i na pawaina a me na mahinaai ia manawa.
But Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards allowed the poorest people who had nothing for themselves to remain in the land of Judah. He gave them vineyards and fields on that same day.
11 Ua kauoha ae la o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona ia Nebuzaradana, i ka luna kaua no Ieremia, i ae la,
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had given an order about Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards. He had said,
12 E lawe oe ia ia, a e nana lokomaikai aku oe ia ia, mai hana hewa aku ia ia; e hana no ia ia e like me kana e olelo mai ai ia oe.
“Take him and care for him. Do not harm him. Do for him anything he tells you.”
13 Alaila, hoouna mai la o Nebuzaradana, ka luna kaua, a me Nebusasebana, ka luna keenamoe, a me Neregalesareza, ka luna Magoi, a me na luna a pau o ke alii o Babulona;
So Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards, Nebushazban the high eunuch, Nergal-Sharezer the high official, and all the most important officials of the king of Babylon sent men out.
14 Hoouna ae la lakou, a lawe mai la ia Ieremia mai ke kahua mai o ka halepaahao, a haawi ia ia, ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama, i ke keiki a Sapana, i lawe oia ia ia i ka hale; a noho iho la oia iwaena o na kanaka.
Their men took Jeremiah from the courtyard of the guard and entrusted him to Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, to take him home, so Jeremiah stayed among the people.
15 Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la ia ia i paa ai ma ke kahua o ka halepaahao, i mai la,
Now the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah while he was under arrest in the courtyard of the guard, saying,
16 O hele a e olelo aku ia Ebedemeleka i ka Aitiopa, i ka i ana aku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, e hookau mai no wau i ka'u mau olelo maluna o keia kulanakauhale no ka hewa, aole no ka maikai; a e hiki mai no ia imua ou i kela la.
“Speak to Ebed-Melek the Cushite and say, 'Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: See, I am about to carry out my words against this city for disaster and not for good. For they will all come true before you on that day.
17 E hoopakele nae au ia oe i kela la, wahi a Iehova; aole e haawiia'ku oe iloko o na lima o ka poe kanaka au e makau nei.
But I will rescue you on that day—this is Yahweh's declaration—and you will not be given into the hand of the men whom you fear.
18 No ka mea, e koopakele io no wau ia oe, aole oe e make i ka pahikaua, o kou ola no kou waiwaipio; no ka mea, ua hilinai mai oe ia'u, wahi a Iehova.
For I will certainly rescue you. You will not fall by the sword. You will escape with your life, since you trust in me—this was Yahweh's declaration.'”
