Jeremias 16
1 And thou shalt not take a wife, saith the Lord God of Israel:
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea ia.
2 and there shall be no son born to thee, nor daughter in this place.
Kaua koe e moe hoa, kauaka hoki he tama, he tamahine mau i tenei wahi.
3 For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that have born them, and concerning their fathers that have begotten them in this land;
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa mo nga tama, mo nga tamahine ka whanau ki tenei wahi, mo o ratou whaea hoki i whanau ai ratou, mo o ratou papa ano na ratou nei aua tamariki i tenei whenua;
4 They shall die of grievous death; they shall not be lamented, nor buried; they shall be for an example on the face of the earth; and they shall be for the wild beasts of the land, and for the birds of the sky: they shall fall by the sword, and shall be consumed with famine.
He kino rawa nga mate e mate ai ratou; e kore ratou e tangihia, e kore hoki e tanumia; ka waiho ratou hei whakawairakau i runga i te mata o te oneone: ka poto atu ratou i te hoari, i te hemokai; ko o ratou tinana hei kai ma nga manu o te rangi, m a nga kararehe o te whenua.
5 Thus saith the Lord, Enter not into their mourning feast, and go not to lament, and mourn not for them: for I have removed my peace from this people.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, Kaua e tomo ki te whare tangihanga, kaua hoki e haere ki te tangi, ki te uhunga i a ratou: kua tangohia atu hoki e ahau taku rangimarie i tenei iwi, e ai ta Ihowa, ara te aroha noa me nga mahi tohu.
6 They shall not bewail them, nor make cuttings for them, and they shall not shave themselves [for them]:
Ka mate nga mea nunui ratou ko nga mea ririki ki tenei whenua; e kore ratou e tanumia, e kore hoki te tangata e tangi ki a ratou, e kore e haehae i a ratou, e kore e whakamoremore i o ratou mahunga mo ratou:
7 and there shall be no bread broken in mourning for them for consolation over the dead: they shall not give one to drink a cup for consolation over his father or his mother.
E kore hoki e tuwhaina mai te taro ma ratou i te tangihanga, hei whakamarie i a ratou mo te tupapaku; e kore hoki e homai ki a ratou te kapu whakamarie kia inumia, ina mea ki tona papa, ki tona whaea.
8 Thou shalt not enter into the banquet-house, to sit with them to eat and to drink.
Kaua ano hoki koe e tomo ki te whare hakari noho tahi ai me ratou, kai ai, inu ai ranei.
9 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Behold, I [will] make to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira, Nana, ka whakamutua e ahau i tenei wahi, i mua i o koutou kanohi a i o koutou ra, te reo o te harakoa, te reo o te hari, te reo o te tane marena hou, te reo o te wahine marena hou.
10 And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt report to this people all these words, and they shall say to thee, Wherefore has the Lord pronounced against us all these evils? what is our unrighteousness? and what is our sin which we have sinned before the Lord our God?
Na, ka korerotia e koe enei kupu katoa ki tenei iwi, a ka mea ratou ki a koe, Na te aha tenei kino nui katoa i korerotia mai ai e Ihowa ki a matou? he aha hoki to matou he? he aha ano to matou hara i hara ai matou ki a Ihowa, ki to matou Atua?
11 Then thou shalt say to them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and went after strange gods and served them, and worshipped them, and forsook me, and kept not my law;
Katahi koe ka mea ki a ratou, No te mea i whakarerea ahau e o koutou matua, e ai ta Ihowa, a haere ana ratou ki te whai i nga atua ke mahi ana ki a ratou, koropiko ana ki a ratou, whakarerea ana ahau e ratou, kihai hoki ratou i pupuri i taku tur e;
12 (and ye sinned worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the lusts of your own evil heart, so as not to hearken to me);
Me koutou ano, kino atu ta koutou mahi i ta o koutou matua; no te mea, nana, kei te whai koutou i nga tikanga pakeke o tona ngakau kino, o tona ngakau kino, na wai a kahore koutou e rongo ki ahau:
13 therefore I will cast you off from this good land into a land which neither ye nor your fathers have known; and ye shall serve their other gods, who shall have no mercy upon you.
Na reira ka akiritia atu koutou e ahau i tenei whenua ki tetahi whenua kihai i mohiotia e koutou, e o koutou matua ranei; a ki reira koutou mahi ai ki nga atua ke i te ao, i te po; e kore hoki e puta toku aroha ki a koutou.
14 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when they shall no more say, The Lord lives, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
Nana, kei te haere ake nei hoki nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e kore ai e korerotia, E ora ana a Ihowa nana nei i kawe mai nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa;
15 but, The Lord lives, who brought up the house of Israel from the land of the north, and from all countries whither they were thrust out: and I will restore them to their own land, which I gave to their fathers.
Engari, E ora ana a Ihowa nana nei i kawe mai nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua ki te raki, i nga whenua katoa ano i peia atu ai ratou e ia: a ka whakahokia mai ratou e ahau ki to ratou whenua i hoatu ra e ahau ki o ratou matua.
16 Behold, I [will] send many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send many hunters, and they shall hunt them upon every mountain, and upon every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
Nana, ka tikina atu e ahau etahi kaihi ika tokomaha, e ai ta Ihowa, a ka hiia ratou e ratou: muri iho ka tikina e ahau he tangata whai kirehe mohoao, he tokomaha, a ka whaia ratou i runga i nga maunga katoa, i runga i nga pukepuke katoa, i roto hoki i nga rua o nga kamaka.
17 For mine eyes are upon all their ways; and their iniquities have not been hidden from mine eyes.
No te mea kei runga oku kanohi i o ratou ara katoa; kahore hoki e huna atu i toku mata, kahore ano to ratou he e huna i oku kanohi.
18 And I will recompense their mischiefs doubly, and their sins, whereby they have profaned my land with the carcases of their abominations, and with their iniquities, whereby they have trespassed against mine inheritance.
Na ka matua rite i ahau nga utu mo to ratou he, mo to ratou hara, kia rua; mo ratou i whakapoke i toku whenua ki nga tinana o a ratou mea anaunu, i whakaki hoki i toku wahi tupu ki a ratou mea whakarihariha.
19 O Lord, thou art my strength, and mine help, and my refuge in days of evil: to thee the Gentiles shall come from the end of the earth, and shall say, How vain [were the] idols [which] our fathers procured to themselves, and there is no help in them.
E Ihowa, e toku kaha, e toku pa kaha, e toku rerenga atu i te wa o te raru, tera e haere mai nga iwi i nga pito o te whenua ki a koe, a ka mea, Koia ano! he teka kau nga taonga tupu o o tatou matua, he horihori, he mea huakore.
20 Will a man make gods for himself, whereas these are no gods?
E hanga ranei te tangata i etahi atua mona, ehara nei i te atua?
21 Therefore, behold, I will at this time manifest my hand to them, and will make known to them my power; and they shall know that my name is the Lord.
Mo reira ka meinga ratou e ahau kia mohio, ka meinga ratou e ahau kia mohio i tenei wa kotahi nei ki toku ringa, ki toku kaha hoki; a ka mohio ratou, ko Ihowa toku ingoa.
