< Jeremiah 22 >

1 Thus said Jehovah: Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
KE olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E iho oe ilalo i ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda, a e olelo malaila i keia olelo;
2 and say, Hear the word of Jehovah, O king of Judah, that sittest upon the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people that enter in by these gates.
E i aku, E hoolohe oe i ka olelo a Iehova, e ke alii o ka Iuda, ka mea noho ma ka nohoalii o Davida, o oe, a me kau poe kauwa, a me kou poe kanaka, na mea komo iloko o keia mau pukapa.
3 Thus saith Jehovah: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver him that is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the sojourner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; E hana oukou i ka hooponopono, a me ka maikai, a e hoopakele i ka mea i haoia, mai ka lima aku o ka mea hookaumaha: mai hana i ka mea i hewa, mai hana i ka mea kolohe i ka malihini, a i ke kieki makuaole, a i ka wahine kanemake: mai hookahe hoi i ke koko hala ole ma keia wahi.
4 For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
No ka mea, ina hana io oukou i keia, alaila, e komo mai no ma na pukapa o keia hale, he poe alii, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii o Davida, e holo ana hoi maloko o na kaakaua, a maluna o na lio, oia, a me kana poe kauwa, a me kona poe kanaka.
5 But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith Jehovah, that this house shall become a desolation.
Aka, ina aole oukou e hoolohe i keia mau olelo, ke hoohiki nei au ia'u iho, wahi a Iehova, e lilo no keia hale i neoneo.
6 For thus saith Jehovah concerning the house of the king of Judah: Thou art Gilead unto me, [and] the head of Lebanon; [yet] surely I will make thee a wilderness, [and] cities which are not inhabited.
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova i ko ka hale o ke alii o ka Iuda; O oe no o Gileada ia'u, o ke poo hoi o Lebanona. He oiaio, e hoolilo no wau ia oe i waonahele, i kulanakauhale noho ole ia.
7 And I will prepare destroyers against thee, every one with his weapons; and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
A na'u hoi e hoomakaukau i poe luku aku ia oe, o kela mea keia mea, me kona mea eha: a na lakou e kua ilalo i kou mau kedera maikai, a e kiola ia lakou iloko o ke ahi.
8 And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus unto this great city?
A e nui loa auanei na lahuikanaka e hele ae a hala keia kulanakauhale, a e olelo kela mea keia mea o lakou i kona hoa, No keaha la i haua mai ai o Iehova ia mea i keia kulanakauhale nui?
9 Then they shall answer, Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.
Alaila, e olelo no lakou, No ka mea, ua haalele lakou i ka berita o Iehova, ko lakou Akua, a ua hoomaua i na'kua e, a ua malama ia lakou.
10 Weep ye not for the dead, neither bemoan him; but weep sore for him that goeth away; for he shall return no more, nor see his native country.
Mai uwe oukou no ka mea i make, mai kanikau ia ia; e uwe nui i ka mea i hele aku; no ka mea, aole ia e hoi hou mai, aole e ike hou i kona aina hanau.
11 For thus saith Jehovah touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, [and] who went forth out of this place: He shall not return thither any more;
No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova no Saluma, ke keiki a Iosia, ke alii o ka Iuda, ka mea i noho aupuni ma ka hakahaka o Iosia, o kona makua, ka mea i hele, mai keia wahi aku; aole ia e hoi hou ilaila:
12 but in the place whither they have led him captive, there shall he die, and he shall see this land no more.
Aka, e make no oia ma kahi a lakou i lawepio ai ia ia, aole e ike hou mai i keia aina.
13 Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that useth his neighbor’s service without wages, and giveth him not his hire;
Auwe ka mea kukulu i kona hale me ka pono ole, a me kona mau keena maluna, me ka mea aole i maikai, ka mea hoohana wale i kona hoalauna, aole hoi i uku mai no kana hana ana;
14 that saith, I will build me a wide house and spacious chambers, and cutteth him out windows; and it is ceiled with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
Ka mea i olelo, E hana no wau i hale akea no'u me na keena nui maluna; a kalai hoi i mau puka makani nona; a ua kapiliia i ka laau kedera, a ua penaia i ka ulaula.
15 Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? then it was well with him.
E noho aupuni anei oe no kou hoopuni ana ia oe i ke kedera? Aole anei i ai, a inu kou makuakane, a hana i ka hooponopono, a me ka pololei, alaila, ua pomaikai oia?
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Was not this to know me? saith Jehovah.
Nana no i hooponopono i ka hihia o ka poe hune, a me ka poe nele, alaila, pomaikai. Aole anei oia ka i ike mai ia'u, wahi a Iehova?
17 But thine eyes and thy heart are not but for thy covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it.
Aka, aohe mea ma kou mau maka, a ma kou naau, o kou makeewaiwai no, a me ka hookahe i ke koko hala ole, a me ka hookaumaha, a me ka lawe wale, e hana hoi.
18 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: they shall not lament for him, [saying], Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! They shall not lament for him, [saying] Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!
Nolaila, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova no Iehoiakima, ke keiki a Iosia, ke alii o ka Iuda; Aole lakou e kumakena ia ia, me ka i iho, Auwe kuu kaikuaana! auwe kuu kaikuwahine! aole lakou e kumakena ia ia, me ka i iho, Auwe ka haku! auwe kona nani!
19 He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
E kanuia no ia me ke kanu ana o ka hoki, i hukiia a kiolaia'ku mawaho aku o na pukapa o Ierusalema.
20 Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all thy lovers are destroyed.
E pii aku oe i Lebanona, a e kahea aku, e hookiekie hoi i kou leo ma Banana, a e kahea aku ma kela aoao; no ka mea, ua lukuia kou poe ipo a pau.
21 I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice.
I kou wa i pomaikai ai, olelo aku la no wau ia oe, aka, olelo mai oe, Aole au e hoolohe: oia hoi kou aoao, mai kou wa opiopio mai, no ka mea, aole oe i hoolohe i ko'u leo.
22 The wind shall feed all thy shepherds, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.
Na ka makani no e hoopau i kou mau kahu a pau; a e hele no kou poe ipo iloko o ke pio. Oiaio, i kela wa, e hilahila no oe, a e hoopalai no hoi, no kou hewa a pau.
23 O inhabitant of Lebanon, that makest thy nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied shalt thou be when pangs come upon thee, the pain as of a woman in travail!
E ka mea noho ma Lebanona, ka mea hana i kou punana maloko o na laau kedera; pehea la oe e alohaia mai ai i ka wa e hiki mai ai kou eha, o ke kuakoko hoi, e like me ko ka wahine hanau keiki?
24 As I live, saith Jehovah, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence;
Me au e ola nei, wahi a Iehova, ina o Konia, ke keiki a Iehoiakima, ke alii o ka Iuda, ina paha oia ka hoailona ma ko'u lima akau; e uhuki aku no au ia oe malaila mai.
25 and I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them of whom thou art afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
A e haawi aku no au ia oe iloko o ka lima o ka poe e imi nei i kou ola, a iloko hoi o ka lima o ka poe nona ka maka au e makau nei, iloko o ka lima hoi o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona, a iloko o ka lima o ko Kaledea.
26 And I will cast thee out, and thy mother that bare thee, into another country, where ye were not born; and there shall ye die.
A e kipaku aku no wau ia oe, a me kou makuwahine nana oe i hanau, i ka aina e, i kahi o oukou i hanau ole ia'i; a malaila oukou e make ai.
27 But to the land whereunto their soul longeth to return, thither shall they not return.
Aka, o ka aina a lakou e makemake ai e hoi mai; aole lakou e hoi mai ilaila.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? is he a vessel wherein none delighteth? wherefore are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into the land which they know not?
O keia kanaka, o Konia, he kii anei oia i hoowahawahaia, a naha no hoi? He ipu anei i makemake ole ia? No ke aha lakou i kipakuia'ku ai, oia, a me kana hua, a ua hooleiia iloko o ka aina a lakou i ike ole ai?
29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of Jehovah.
E ka honua, ka honua, ka honua, E hoolohe oe i ka olelo a Iehova:
30 Thus saith Jehovah, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days; for no more shall a man of his seed prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E palapala oe i keia kanaka, ua keiki ole, he kanaka pomaikai ole i kona mau la: no ka mea, aohe kanaka o kana hua e pomaikai ana, e noho ana ma ka nohoalii o Davida, a e noho aupuni hou ana ma ka Iuda.
