< Jeremiah 42 >

1 Then drew near all the captains of the forces, and Johanan son of Kareah and Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, —and all the people from the least even unto the greatest;
A LAILA, hookokoke mai la na luna o ka poe koa, a me Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, a me Iezania, ke keiki a Hosaia, a me na kanaka a pau, mai ka mea uuku a ka mea nui,
2 and said unto Jeremiah the prophet—Let our supplication we beseech thee fall prostrate before thee, and pray thou in our behalf unto Yahweh thy God, in behalf of all this remnant, —for we are left a few out of many, just as thine own eyes do behold us:
A olelo mai la lakou ia Ieremia i ke kaula, Ke noi aku nei makou ia oe e ae mai i ka haule ana o ko makou nonoi imua ou, a e pule aku hoi ia Iehova, i kou Akua no makou, no keia koena a pau; (no ka mea, ua koe mai makou, he poe uuku noloko mai o na mea nui, e like me ka ike ana o kou mau maka ia makou; )
3 that Yahweh thy God may tell us the way wherein we should walk, —and the thing that we should do.
I hoike mai ai o Iehova, kou Akua ia makou i ke ala e pono ai makou ke hele, a i ka mea hoi e pono ai makou ke hana.
4 And Jeremiah the prophet, said unto them, I have heard; behold me! praying unto Yahweh your God according to your words, —and it shall come to pass that the whole thing that Yahweh shall answer you, I will tell you, I will keep back from you, nothing.
Alaila, olelo aku la o Ieremia, ke kaula ia lakou, Ua lohe an, aia hoi, e pule no wau ia Iehova, i ko oukou Akua, e like me na olelo a oukou; a o ka mea a Iehova e olelo mai ia oukou, oia ka'u e hai aku ai ia oukou; aole au e huna i kekahi mea ia oukou.
5 They, therefore said unto Jeremiah, Yahweh be against us, as a witness true and faithful, —if according to all the word which Yahweh thy God shall send thee unto us, so we do not perform:
Alaila, olelo mai la lakou ia Ieremia, O Iehova no ka mea hoike oiaio, a pono iwaena o kakou, ke hana ole makou e like me na mea a pau a Iehova e hoouna mai ai ia oe io makou nei;
6 whether for good or for ill, unto the voice of Yahweh our God for which we are sending thee unto him, will we hearken, —to the end it may be well with us, because we will hearken unto the voice of Yahweh our God.
Ina he maikai, a ina he hewa, e hoolohe no makou i ka leo o Iehova ko makou Akua, ka mea ia ia makou e hoouna aku ai ia oe, i pomaikai ai makou i ka wa e hoolohe ai makou i ka leo o Iehova ko makou Akua.
7 And it came to pass at the end of ten days, that the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah.
A mahope iho o na la he umi, alaila hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Ieremia.
8 Then called he for Johanan son of Kareah, and for all the princes of the forces who were with him—and for all the people from the least even unto the greatest;
Alaila, hea aku oia ia Iohanana, i ke keiki a Karea, a me na luna a pau o na koa, e noho pu ana me ia, a me na kanaka a pau, mai ka mea uuku, a ka mea nui;
9 and said unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel—unto whom ye sent me, to cause your supplication to fall prostrate before him: —
I mai la oia ia lakou, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ka mea ia ia oukou i h ouna aku ai ia'u, e hookau i ko oukou nonoi ana imua ona;
10 If ye will indeed abide, in this land, then will I build you up, and not pull [you] down, and plant you and not uproot [you], —for I have compassion as touching the calamity which I have caused you.
Ina e noho oukou ma keia aina, alaila, e kukulu no wau ia oukou, aole e hoohiolo, e hoonipaa loa wau ia oukou, aole au e uhuki; no ka mea, na mihi au i ka ino a'u i hana aku ai ia oukou.
11 Do not fear the face of the king of Babylon, of whose face ye are afraid, —do not fear him, Urgeth Yahweh, for with you, am I, to save you, and to deliver you out of his hand:
Mai makau i ke alii o Babulona, i ka mea a oukou e makau nei; mai makau ia ia, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, owau pu me oukou e hoola ia oukou, a e hoopakele hoi ia oukou mai kona lima aku.
12 that I may grant you compassions and he may have compassion upon you, —and suffer you to return unto your own soil.
A e hoike aku au i ka lokomaikai ia oukou, i lokomaikai ai oia ia oukou, a hoihoi mai ia oukou i ko oukou aina iho.
13 But, since ye are saying, —We will not dwell in this land, —nor hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God:
Aka, ina olelo oukou, Aole makou e noho ma keia aina, aole hoi e hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova, ko oukou Akua;
14 saying, —No! for, into the land of Egypt, will we go, where we shall not see war, nor the sound of a horn, shall we hear, —nor for bread, shall we be famished, —there, then will we dwell
A olelo hoi, Aole; e hele no makou i ka aina o Aigupita, ma kahi e ike ole ai makou i ke kaua, aole hoi e lohe i ke kani ana o ka pu, aole hoi e pololi i ka berena; a malaila no makou e noho ai;
15 Now, therefore, for this cause, hear ye the word of Yahweh, O remnant of Judah, —Thus! saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, —If, ye do indeed set your faces to enter Egypt and do enter to sojourn there,
No ia mea la, ea, e hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e ke koena o ka Iuda; Ke i mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Ina ikaika ke kau ana o ko oukou maka e hele i Aigupita, e hele hoi a noho malaila;
16 then shall it come to pass that the sword which ye are fearing shall, there, overtake you, in the land of Egypt, —and the famine which ye are dreading, shall, there, lay fast hold of you, in Egypt, and, there, shall ye die.
Alaila, e hiki mai no keia, o ka pahikaua a oukou i makau ai, e loaa no ia oukou ia malaila, ma ka aina o Aigupita; a o ka wi, ka mea a oukou i makau ai, e pipili no ia ia oukou malaila, ma Aigupita, a malaila oukou e make ai.
17 So shall it be with all the men who have set their faces to enter Egypt to sojourn there, they shall die by sword, by famine or by pestilence, —and they shall have neither survival nor escape, from the face of the calamity which I am about to bring in upon them.
E hiki no ia i na kanaka a pau e kau ana i ko lakou maka e hele i Aigupita e noho malaila: e make no lakou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau; aohe mea e koe, aole hoi e pakele i ka hewa a'u e lawe ai maluna o lakou.
18 For—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, —Just as mine anger and mine indignation have been poured out upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so shall mine indignation be poured out upon you when ye enter into Egypt, —thus shall ye become a curse, and an astonishment and a contempt and a reproach, and ye shall no more see this place.
No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, E like me ka ninini ana o ko'u huhu, a me ko'u ukiuki maluna o ka poe e noho la ma Ierusalema: pela no e nininiia'i ko'u ukiuki maluna o oukou. i ka wa e hiki aku ai oukou iloko o Aigupita; a e lilo oukou i mea hailiiliia, a i mea e kahaha'i, a i mea poino, a i mea hoowahawahaia; aole hoi oukou e ike hou mai i keia wahi.
19 Yahweh hath spoken concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah, Do not enter into Egypt: Know certainly, that I have taken you to witness to-day.
Ua olelo no o Iehova no oukou, E, oukou ke koena o ka Iuda, Mai hele oukou i Aigupita; e ike pono oukou, ua hoike aku au ia oukou i keia la.
20 For ye have deceived yourselves at the cost of your lives, for, ye yourselves, sent me unto Yahweh your God, saying, —Pray thou in our behalf, unto Yahweh our God, —and according to all that Yahweh our God shall say, so, tell us and we will do it.
Ua hele hewa oukou e pilikia ai ko oukou ola, i ka wa i hoouna aku ai oukou ia'u io Iehova la, i ko oukou Akua, i ka i ana mai la, E pule aku oe ia Iehova i ko makou Akua no makou; a e like me na mea a pau a Iehova, ko makou Akua e olelo mai ai, pela no oe e hai mai ia makou, a e hana no makou.
21 Therefore have I told you to-day, —and yet ye have not hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh your God, even in any thing for which he hath sent me unto you.
A ua hai aku au ia oukou i keia la; aole oukou i hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova o ko oukou Akua, aole ma kekahi mea ana i hoouna mai ai ia'u, io oukou la.
22 Now, therefore, know ye certainly, that by sword, by famine, or by pestilence, shall ye die, —in the place whither ye have desired to go, to sojourn.
No ia mea la, ea, e ike pono oukou, e make oukou i ka pahikaua, a i ka wi, a i ka mai ahulau, ma kahi a oukou e makemake ai e hele, a e noho.
