1The word that came from Jeremias to the Lord, saying:
1O KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la mai o Iehova mai, i ka i ana mai,
2Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there thou shalt hear my words.
2E ku iluna, a e iho ilalo i ka hale o ka potera, a malaila e mea aku au, a e lohe oe i ka'u mau olelo.
3And I went down into the potter’s house, and behold he was doing a work on the wheel.
3Alaila, iho aku la au ilalo i ka hale o ka potera, a aia hoi, e hana ana oia i ka hana maluna o na kaa.
4And the vessel was broken which he was making with clay with his hands: and turning he made another vessel, as it seemed good in his eyes to make it.
4A o ka ipu ana i hana'i no ka lepo, ino iho la no ia iloko o ka lima o ka potera. Alaila, hana hou iho la no oia i ipu e, e like me ka makemake o ka potera e hana.
5Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
5Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo o Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
6Cannot I do with you as this potter, saith the Lord? behold as clay is in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.
6E ko ka hale o ka Iseraela, aole anei e hiki ia'u ke hana e like me keia potera, wahi a Iehova? Aia hoi, e like me ka lepo iloko o ka lima o ka potera, pela no oukou iloko o ko'u lima, e ko ka hale o ka Iseraela.
7I will suddenly speak against a nation, and against a kingdom, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy it.
7I ka wa a'u e olelo ai no kekahi lahuikanaka, a no kekahi aupuni, e uhuki, e wawahi, a e luku iho;
8If that nation against which I have spoken, shall repent of their evil, I also will repent of the evil that I have thought to do to them.
8O kela lahuikanaka a'u i hoohewa aku ai, ina i huli lakou, mai ko lakou hewa mai, alaila, e mihi no wau i ka hewa a'u i manao ai e hana ia lakou.
9And I will suddenly speak of a nation and of a kingdom, to build up and plant it.
9A i ka wa a'u e olelo ai no kekahi lahuikanaka, a no kekahi aupuni, e kukulu, a e hookupaa;
10If it shall do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice: I will repent of the good that I have spoken to do unto it.
10Ina e hana hewa ia imua o ko'u alo, a hoolohe ole i ko'u leo, alaila, e mihi no wau i ka maikai a'u i olelo ai e hoopomaikai aku ia lakou.
11Now therefore tell the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: let every man of you return from his evil way, and make ye your ways and your doings good.
11Ano la hoi, e olelo aku oe i kanaka o ka Iuda, a i ka poe e noho la ma Ierusalema, e i aku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, ke hana nei au i ka hewa ia oukou; ke noonoo nei hoi i manao ku e ia oukou. E hoi mai oukou, ano la, o kela mea, o keia mea, mai kona aoao hewa mai, a e hoomaikai i ko oukou aoao a me ka oukou hana ana.
12And they said: We have no hopes: for we will go after our own thoughts, and we will do every one according to the perverseness of his evil heart.
12I mai la lakou, Makekewa; e hele no makou mamuli o ko makou manao iho, a e hana no kela mea keia mea o makou ma ka paakiki o kona naau hewa.
13Therefore thus saith the Lord: Ask among the nations: Who hath heard such horrible things, as the virgin of Israel hath done to excess?
13Nolaila, ko olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, E ninau oukou iwaena o ko na aina e, Owai ka mea i lohe i na mea e like me ia? Ua hana no ka wahine puupaa o ka Iseraela i ka mea hoopailua loa.
14Shall now the snow of Libanus fail from the rock of the field? or can the cold waters that gush out and run down, be taken away?
14E haalele anei ka hau ia Lebanona no na pohaku o ke kula, e kiolaia anei na wai huihui e kahe ana mai kahi e mai?
15Because my people have forgotten me, sacrificing in vain, and stumbling in their ways, in ancient paths, to walk by them in a way not trodden:
15No ka mea, ua hoopoina ko'u poe kanaka ia'u; ua kuni lakou i ka mea ala no ka lapuwale, a ua hoohina ia lakou ma ko lakou kuamoo, na kuamoo kahiko, e hele ma na kuamoo e, ma ke kuamoo i hoouka ole ia:
16That their land might be given up to desolation, and to a perpetual hissing: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and wag his head.
16I lilo ko lakou aina i neoneo, i mea hoowahawaha mau loa ia. E kahaha auauei na mea a pau e hele ae malaila, a e kunokunou i kona poo.
17As a burning will I scatter them before the enemy: I will shew them the back, and not the face, in the day of their destruction.
17E hoopuehu aku au ia lakou imua o ka enemi, me ka makani mai ka hikina mai; e hoike aku au ia lakou i ke kua, aole i ka maka, i ka la o ko lakou popilikia.
18And they said: Come, and let us invent devices against Jeremias: for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet: come, and let us strike him with the tongue, and let us give no heed to all his words.
18Alaila, olelo mai la lakou, E hele mai, e imi hala kakou no Ieremia, no ka mea, aole e haule ke kanawai i ke kahuna, aole hoi ka manao akamai i ka poe akamai, a me ka olelo hoi i ke kaula. E hele mai, e hahau kakou ia ia i ke alelo; mai hoolohe kakou i kekahi o kana mau olelo.
19Give heed to me, O Lord, and hear the voice of my adversaries.
19E haliu mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, a e hoolohe i ka leo o ka poe hakaka me au.
20Shall evil be rendered for good, because they have digged a pit for my soul? Remember that I have stood in thy sight, so speak good for them, and turn away thy indignation from them.
20E hoihoi ia anei ka hewa no ka maikai? No ka mea, ua kohi lakou i lua no ko'u ola. E hoomanao oe i ko'u ku ana imua ou, e olelo i ka maikai no lakou, e hoohuli aku i kou inaina mai o lakou aku.
21Therefore deliver up their children to famine, and bring them into the hands of the sword: let their wives be bereaved of children and widows: and let their husbands be slain by death: let their young men be stabbed with the sword in battle.
21Nolaila, e haawi aku oe i ka lakou keiki no ka wi, a e haawi ia lakou e make i ka ikaika o ka pahikaua. E hooneleia hoi ka lakou wahine i ka lakou keiki, a lilo lakou i wahinekanemake; e haawi hoi i ko lakou poe kanaka i ka make, a me ko lakou kanaka opiopio no ka lukuia i ka pahikaua, ma ka hoouka kaua ana.
22Let a cry be heard out of their houses: for thou shalt bring the robber upon them suddenly: because they have digged a pit to take me, and have hid snares for my feet.
22E loheia ka hea ana, mai ko lakou hale mai, i ka wa au e hoopuka mai ai i poe kaua maluna o lakou me ka hoohikilele; no ka mea, ua kohi lakou i lua, e hoopaa ia'u, a ua huna lakou i pahele no kuu mau wawae.
23But thou, O Lord, knowest all their counsel against me unto death: forgive not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from thy sight: let them be overthrown before thy eyes, in the time of thy wrath do thou destroy them.
23Aka, ua ike no oe, e Iehova, i ko lakou manao a pau ia'u, e pepehi mai ia'u. Mai kala oe i ko lakou hala, aole hoi e holoi i ko lakou hewa, mai kou alo aku; aka, e hoohiolo ia lakou imua ou. E hana oe pela ia lakou, i ka manawa o kou inaina.
