Isaiah 30
1 Ho! uncontrolled children, says the Lord, who give effect to a purpose which is not mine, and who make an agreement, but not by my spirit, increasing their sin:
Aue te mate mo nga tamariki whakakeke, e ai ta Ihowa, e hanga whakaaro nei, otiia ehara i te mea naku; e hipoki nei i te hipoki, ehara ia i te mea na toku wairua, he mea kia taparua iho ai e ratou he hara ki runga ki te hara:
2 Who make a move to go down into Egypt, without authority from me; who are looking to the strength of Pharaoh for help, and whose hope is in the shade of Egypt.
E haere nei ki raro ki Ihipa, kahore hoki e ui tikanga ki toku mangai; hei kaha hoki mo ratou te kaha o Parao, a e mea ana kia whakawhirinaki ki te taumarumarunga iho o Ihipa!
3 And the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and your hope in the shade of Egypt will come to nothing.
Mo reira hei mea whakama ki a koutou te kaha o Parao, hei mea ano e numinumi ai koutou te whakawhirinaki ki te taumarumarunga iho o Ihipa.
4 For his chiefs are at Zoan, and his representatives have come to Hanes.
I Toana hoki ana rangatira, i tae ano ana karere ki Hanehe.
5 For they have all come with offerings to a people of no use to them, in whom is no help or profit, but only shame and a bad name.
Whakama katoa ratou ki te iwi kahore nei a ratou pai mo ratou, kahore he awhina, kahore he pai; engari he whakama, he ingoa kino.
6 The word about the Beasts of the South. Through the land of trouble and grief, the land of the she-lion and the voice of the lion, of the snake and the burning winged snake, they take their wealth on the backs of young asses, and their stores on camels, to a people in whom is no profit.
Ko te poropititanga mo nga kararehe o te tonga. I te whenua o te raruraru, o te ngakau mamae, no reira nei te raiona uha me te raiona toa, te waipera me te nakahi e rere nei me he ahi, ka kawea atu e ratou o ratou rawa i runga i nga pokohiwi o ng a kuao kaihe, o ratou taonga i runga i nga koropuku o nga kamera ki te iwi kahore nei a ratou pai mo ratou.
7 For there is no use or purpose in the help of Egypt: so I have said about her, She is Rahab, who has come to an end.
Ko ta Ihipa awhina hoki he horihori, he kore noa iho: koia i huaina ai e ahau, ko Rahapa noho tonu.
8 Now go, put it in writing before them on a board, and make a record of it in a book, so that it may be for the future, a witness for all time to come.
Na haere, tuhituhia ki te papa ki to ratou aroaro, taia iho hoki ki te pukapuka; me waiho ano tena i nga ra i muri hei kaiwhakaatu a ake ake.
9 For they are an uncontrolled people, false-hearted, who will not give ear to the teaching of the Lord:
He tutu hoki tenei iwi, he tamariki korero teka, he tamariki kahore e pai ki te whakarongo ki te ture a Ihowa:
10 Who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Do not give us word of what is true, but say false things to give us pleasure:
Ko ta ratou nei kupu ki nga matakite, Kaua e kite; ki nga poropiti, Kaua e poropititia ki a matou nga mea tika; korero ki a matou i nga mea ngawari; hei nga mea tinihanga he poropititanga ma koutou:
11 Get out of the good way, turning from the right road; do not keep the Holy One of Israel before our minds.
Peka atu i te ara, whakarerea te huarahi, kati ta te Mea Tapu o Iharaira te mea mai ki to matou aroaro.
12 For this cause the Holy One of Israel says, Because you will not give ear to this word, and are looking for help in ways of deceit and evil, and are putting your hope in them:
Na ko te kupu tenei a te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, Kua paopao na koutou ki tenei kupu, kua okioki ano ki te tukino, ki te whanoke, u tonu atu ki reira:
13 This sin will be to you like a crack in a high wall, causing its fall suddenly and in a minute.
Na, ko te tukunga iho o tenei he ki a koutou, ka rite ki te pakaru o te taiepa, meake nei hinga, kua ngawha haere i te wahi tiketike, kitea rawatia ake kua puta whakarere tona pakaru.
14 And he will let it be broken as a potter's vessel is broken: it will be smashed to bits without mercy; so that there will not be a bit in which one may take fire from the fireplace, or water from the spring.
Ka wahia hoki e ia, pera i te oko a te kaihanga rihi e wahia ana, mongamonga noa, e kore e tohungia; na e kore e kitea i roto i ona kongakonga he maramara hei tango ahi mai i te kanga ahi, hei utu wai ake ranei i te poka.
15 For the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, said, In quiet and rest is your salvation: peace and hope are your strength: but you would not have it so.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, a te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, Ma te tahuri mai, ma te humarie ka ora ai koutou; kei te ata noho, kei te whakawhirinaki he kaha mo koutou; heoi kihai koutou i pai.
16 Saying, No, for we will go in flight on horses; so you will certainly go in flight: and, We will go on the backs of quick-running beasts; so those who go after you will be quick-footed.
Na i ki na koutou, Kahore, engari me rere matou i runga i te hoiho; mo reira ka rere koutou: a, Ka eke matou ki runga ki te mea tere; mo reira ka tere ano te hunga e whai ana i a koutou.
17 A thousand will go in fear before one; even before five you will go in flight: till you are like a pillar by itself on the top of a mountain, and like a flag on a hill.
Ko te mano kotahi, ka rere i te riri a te tangata kotahi; ka rere koutou i te riri a te tokorima; a ka mahue koutou ano he pou kara i te tihi o te maunga, ano he kara i runga i te pukepuke.
18 For this cause the Lord will be waiting, so that he may be kind to you; and he will be lifted up, so that he may have mercy on you; for the Lord is a God of righteousness: there is a blessing on all whose hope is in him.
Na konei ano a Ihowa ka tatari, he mea kia atawhaitia ai koutou e ia, na konei ano ia ka whakanekehia ake, kia tohungia ai koutou e ia: he Atua whakawa hoki a Ihowa, ka hari te hunga katoa e tatari ana ki a ia.
19 O people, living in Zion, at Jerusalem, your weeping will be ended; he will certainly have mercy on you at the sound of your cry; when it comes to his ear, he will give you an answer.
Tera hoki te iwi e noho ki Hiona, ki Hiruharama; mutu ake tou tangi: he pono ka aroha ia ki a koe, ki tou reo e tangi ana; ka rongo ia ki a koe, ka whakahoki kupu ia ki a koe.
20 And though the Lord will give you the bread of trouble and the water of grief, you will no longer put your teacher on one side, but you will see your teacher:
Ahakoa homai e te Ariki hei taro ma koutou ko te ngakau mamae, hei wai ano ko te tukino, e kore ou kaiwhakaako e huna a muri; engari ka kite ou kanohi i ou kaiwhakaako:
21 And at your back, when you are turning to the right hand or to the left, a voice will be sounding in your ears, saying, This is the way in which you are to go.
A ka rongo ou taringa i te kupu i muri i a koe e mea ana, Ko te ara tenei: na konei atu, ina tahuri koutou ki matau, ina tahuri ki maui.
22 And you will make unclean what is covering your pictured images of silver, and the plating of your images of gold: you will send them away as an unclean thing, saying, Be gone!
Ka whakapokea hoki e koutou te kopaki o au whakapakoko hiriwa, me te mea whakakikorua o au whakapakoko koura whakarewa: ka rukerukea atu e koe, ano he mea poke, a ka mea ki taua mea, Haere atu.
23 And he will give rain for your seed, so that you may put it in the earth; and you will have bread from the produce of the earth, good and more than enough for your needs: in that day the cattle will get their food in wide grass-lands.
A ka homai e ia he ua ki tau purapura e whakatokia e koe ki te oneone, he taro ano, he hua no te oneone, a ka whai ngako, ka nui taua mea: i taua ra ano he nunui nga parae e kai ai au kararehe.
24 And the oxen and the young asses which are used for ploughing, will have salted grain which has been made free from the waste with fork and basket.
A ko nga kau me nga kuao kaihe e mahi ana i te oneone, ka kai i te kai pai, he mea i whakarererea ki te koko, ki te whakarerere witi.
25 And there will be rivers and streams of water on every tall mountain and on every high hill, in the day when great numbers are put to the sword, when the towers come down.
A i runga i nga maunga tiketike katoa, i nga pukepuke ikeike katoa, ka rere he awa, he manga wai, i te ra o te parekura nui, ina hinga nga pourewa.
26 And the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times greater, as the light of seven days, in the day when the Lord puts oil on the wounds of his people, and makes them well from the blows they have undergone.
Ko te marama hoki o te marama ka rite ki te marama o te ra, a ko te marama o te ra, e whitu ona whakanekehanga ake, ka rite ki te marama o nga ra e whitu, i te ra e takaia ai e Ihowa te kaiakiko o tana iwi, ina rongoatia e ia te patunga i patua ai ratou.
27 See, the name of the Lord is coming from far, burning with his wrath, with thick smoke going up: his lips are full of passion, and his tongue is like a burning fire:
Nana, kei te haere mai te ingoa o Ihowa i tawhiti, ka tonu tona riri, pongere tonu te paowa e kake ana; ki tonu ona ngutu i te riri, ko tona arero koia ano kei te ahi e kai ana:
28 And his breath is as an overflowing stream, coming up even to the neck, shaking the nations for their destruction, like the shaking of grain in a basket: and he will put a cord in the mouths of the people, turning them out of their way.
Ko tona manawa, ano he awa e ngawha ana, tae ana ki te kaki rawa, hei tatari i nga iwi ki te tatari o te horihori; a mau rawa ki nga kauae o nga iwi he paraire, hei whakapohehe i a ratou.
29 You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept; and you will be glad in heart, as when they go with music of the pipe to the mountain of the Lord, the Rock of Israel.
Ka waiata koutou, me te mea ko te po e mahia ai te hakari tapu; ka koa te ngakau, ano he tangata e haere ana me tana putorino, e haere ana ki te maunga o Ihowa, ki te Kamaka o Iharaira.
30 And the Lord will send out the sound of his great voice, and they will see his arm stretched out, with the heat of his wrath, and the flame of a burning fire; with a cloud-burst, and storm, and a rain of ice.
Ka meinga hoki e Ihowa tona reo kororia kia rangona, kia kitea te tautanga iho o tona ringa, me te weriweri o tona riri, te mura o te ahi e kai ana, te apuhau, te tupuhi, me te nganga kohatu.
31 For through the voice of the Lord the Assyrian will be broken, and the Lord's rod will be lifted up against him.
Ma te reo hoki o Ihowa ka pakaru ai te Ahiriana i whiu nei ki te rakau.
32 And every blow of the rod of his punishment, which the Lord will send on him, will be with the sound of music: and with the waving of his sword the Lord will make war against him.
A ko nga whakapanga katoa o te tokotoko i whakaritea, ko ta Ihowa hoki e whakapa ai ki a ia, ka meinga ki nga timipera, ki nga hapa: he whawhai whakangaueue hoki tana whawhai ki a ratou.
33 For a place of fire has long been ready; yes, it has been made ready for the king; he has made it deep and wide: it is massed with fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of fire, puts a light to it.
No mua iho hoki a Topete i whakaritea ai; ae ra, kua rite mo te kingi; kua oti te whakahohonu, te whakanui: ko tona puranga he ahi, nui atu hoki te wahie; ko te manawa o Ihowa, ano he awa whanariki, hei whakangiha.
