Ieremia 12
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1PONO no oe, e Iehova, i ko'u wa e paio aku ai me oe; aka, e kamailio aku no au ia oe ma ka hooponopono ana. No ke aha la e pomaikai ai ka aoao o ka poe hewa? E maluhia anei ka poe hana ma ka wahahee nui loa?
1Thou indeed, O Lord, art just, if I plead with thee, but yet I will speak what is just to thee: Why doth the way of the wicked prosper: why is it well with all them that transgress, and do wickedly?
2Ua kauu no oe ia lakou, oia, ua kolo ko lakou aa; ke ulu nei no lakou, oia, ke hua mai nei lakou i ka hua; ua kokoke no oe i ko lakou waha, ua loihi aku nae mai ko lakou naau aku.
2Thou hast planted them, and they have taken root: they prosper and bring forth fruit: thou art near in their mouth, and far from their reins.
3Aka, o oe e Iehova, ke ike mai nei no oe ia'u; ua nana mai no oe ia'u, ua hoao mai oe i ko'u naau ma ou la. E hookaawale oe ia lakou, e like me na hipa no ke kaluaia, a e hoomakaukau hoi ia lakou no ka la o ka pepehi ana.
3And thou, O Lord, hast known me, thou hast seen me, and proved my heart with thee: gather them together as sheep for a sacrifice, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
4Pehea la ka loihi o ke kumakena ana o ka aina, a me ka mae wale ana o na laalaau o ke kula, no ka hewa o ka poe e noho ana maloko? Ua laweia'ku na holoholona, a me na manu; no ka mea, olelo no lakou, Aole ia e ike mai i ko makou hopena.
4How long shall the land mourn, and the herb of every field wither for the wickedness of them that dwell therein? The beasts and the birds are consumed: because they have said: He shall not see our last end.
5Ina i holo pu oe me ka poe hele wawae, a ua hoomaloeloe mai lakou ia oe, pehea la e hiki ai ia oe ke kukini me na lio? A ina hilinai oe ma ka aina malu, pehea la oe e hana'i maloko o ka nani o Ioredane?
5If thou hast wearied with running with footmen, how canst thou contend with horses? and if thou hast been secure in a land of peace, what wilt thou do in the swelling of the Jordan?
6No ka mea, o kou poe hoahanau, o ko ka hale o kou makuakane, oia, ua hana hoopunipuni mai iakou ia oe; a ua hea aku mamuli ou me ka leo nui; mai manaoio aku ia lakou, ina paha lakou e olelo mai i na olelo malimali ia oe.
6For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have fought against thee, and have cried after thee with full voice: believe them not when they speak good things to thee.
7Ua haalele au i ko'u hale, a ua waiho aku au i ko'u aina hooili: a ua haawi aku hoi au i ka mea a kuu uhane i aloha nui ai iloko o ka lima o kona poe enemi.
7I have forsaken my house, I have left my inheritance: I have given my dear soul into the land of her enemies.
8Ua like ko'u aina hooili ia'u me ka liona iloko o ka ululaau. Uwo ku e mai oia ia'u. Nolaila i ukiuki aku ai au ia ia.
8My inheritance is become to me as a lion in the wood: is hath cried out against me, therefore have I hated it.
9He hiena hae ko'u aina hooili ia'u; a hae mai ia ia na mea a pau e puni ana. E hele mai oukou, e akoakoa mai, e na holoholona a pau o ke kula, no ka ai aku.
9Is my inheritance to me as a speckled bird? Is it as a bird died throughout? come ye, assemble yourselves, all the beasts of the earth, make haste to devour.
10Ua nui na kahu i anai aku i ko'u pawaina. ua hahi lakou i ko'u aina, ua hoolilo lakou i ko'u wahi maikai, i waonahele neoneo.
10Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot: they have changed my delightful portion into a desolate wilderness.
11Ua anai lakou ia wahi, a no kona neoneo, ua uwe mai oia ia'u; au anaiia ka aina a pau, no ka mea, aohe kanaka i manao ma ka naau.
11They have laid it waste, and it hath mourned for me. With desolation is all the land made desolate; because there is none that considereth in the heart.
12Ua hiki mai ka poe luku maluna o na wahi kiekie a pau o ka waonahele; no ka mea, e luku aku no ka pahikaua o Iehova, mai kekahi kukulu o ka aina a i kekahi kukulu o ka aina; aohe io e maluhia ana.
12The spoilers are come upon all the ways of the wilderness, for the sword of the Lord shall devour from one end of the land to the other end thereof: there is no peace for all flesh.
13Ua lulu lakou i ka hua palaoa, aka, e hooiliili no lakou i kakalaioa. Ua hoeha lakou ia lakou iho, aole nae ia he mea e pomaikai ai: a e hilahila auanei lakou i na mea i loaa'i ia oukou, no ko Iehova huhu nui.
13They have sown wheat, and reaped thorns: they have received an inheritance, and it shall not profit them: you shall be ashamed of your fruits, because of the fierce wrath of the Lord.
14Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova, no ko'u poe hoalauna hewa, ka poe i pa mai i ka hooilina a'u i, hooili aku ai na ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela; Aia hoi, e lawe no wau ia lakou, mai ko lakou aina aku, a e lawe aku hoi au i ko ka hale o Iuda, mai waena aku o lakou.
14Thus saith the Lord against all my wicked neighbors, that touch the inheritance that I have shared out to my people Israel: Behold I will pluck them out of their land, and I will pluck the house of Juda out of the midst of them.
15A mahope iho o ko'u lawe ana aku ia lakou, alaila, e hoi hou no wau, a e aloha aku ia lakou, a e hoihoi hou mai ia lakou i kela kanaka, i keia kanaka i kona aina hooili, a i kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aina iho.
15And when I shall have plucked them out, I will return, and have mercy on them: and I will bring them back, every man to his inheritance, and every man to his land.
16A e hiki mai no hoi keia, ina e ao ikaika lakou i na aoao o ko'u poe kanaka, e hoohiki ma ko'u inoa, Ke ola la no o Iehova; e like me lakou i ao ai i ko'u poe kanaka e hoohiki ma Baala; alaila, e kukulu hou ia lakou iwaenakonu o ko'u poe kanaka.
16And it shall come to pass, if they will be taught, and will learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name: The Lord liveth, as they have taught my people to swear by baal: that they shall be built up in the midst of my people.
17Aka, ina aole lakou e malama mai, alaila, e uhuki loa wau, a e anai loa aku i kela lahuikanaka, wahi a Iehova.
17But if they will not hear, I will utterly pluck out and destroy that nation, saith the Lord.
