< Jeremias 33 >
1 IN THE BEGINNING OF THE REIGN OF KING JOAKIM SON OF JOSIAS THERE CAME THIS WORD FROM THE LORD.
Na ko te rua o nga putanga mai o te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia, i a ia ano e tutaki ana ki te marae o te whare herehere; i ki ia,
2 Thus said the Lord; Stand in the court of the Lord's house, and thou shalt declare to all the Jews, and to all that come to worship in the house of the Lord, all the words which I commanded thee to speak to them; abate not one word.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa nana nei tenei i mahi, a Ihowa nana nei i whakaahua, i pumau ai; ko Ihowa tona ingoa;
3 Peradventure they will hear, and turn every one from his evil way: then I will cease from the evils which I purpose to do to them, because of their evil practices.
Karanga ki ahau, a ka whakahoki kupu ahau ki a koe, ka whakakitea hoki e ahau ki a koe nga mea nunui, nga mea pakeke, he mea kihai i mohiotia e koe.
4 And thou shalt say, Thus said the Lord; If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my statutes which I set before you,
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, mo nga whare o tenei pa, mo nga whare hoki o nga kingi o Hura, ka oti nei te wahi iho hei arai atu i nga puke, i te hoari;
5 to hearken to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send to you early in the morning; yea, I sent them, but ye hearkened not to me;
E haere mai ana ratou ki te whawhai ki nga Karari, engari ia ki te whakaki i aua wahi ki nga tinana o nga tangata i patua e ahau i toku riri, i toku weriweri, o te hunga no ratou nga kino katoa i huna ai e ahau toku mata ki tenei pa.
6 then will I make this house as Selo, and I will make [this] city a curse to all the nations of all the earth.
Nana, ka kawea mai e ahau he ora, he rongoa ki tenei pa, a ka rongoatia ratou e ahau; a ka whakakitea e ahau ki a ratou te nui o te rangimarie me te pono.
7 And the priests, and the false prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.
Ka whakahokia mai ano e ahau a Hura i te whakarau, a Iharaira hoki i te whakarau, a ka hanga ratou e ahau, koia ano kei to te timatanga.
8 And it came to pass, when Jeremias had ceased speaking all that the Lord had ordered him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the false prophets and all the people took him, saying,
Ka purea ano e ahau to ratou kino katoa i hara ai ratou ki ahau; a ka murua e ahau o ratou kino katoa i hara ai ratou ki ahau, i poka ke ai ta ratou mahi ki ahau.
9 Thou shalt surely die, because thou hast prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be as Selo, and this city shall be made quite destitute of inhabitants. And all the people assembled against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.
A ka waiho tenei pa hei ingoa koa ki ahau, hei whakamoemiti, hei kororia, i te aroaro o nga iwi katoa o te whenua, ka rongo nei ratou ki nga pai katoa e meatia e ahau ki a ratou, a ka wehi ratou, ka wiri i te pai katoa, i te rangimarie katoa, e m eatia e ahau ki konei.
10 And the princes of Juda heard this word, and they went up out of the house of the king to the house of the Lord, and sat in the entrance of the new gate.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tera ano ka rangona ki tenei wahi, e ki nei koutou mo reira, He ururua, kahore he tangata, kahore he kararehe, ara ki nga pa o Hura, ki nga ara o Hiruharama e mokemoke nei, te ai he tangata, te ai he kainoho, te ai he k ararehe,
11 Then the priests and the false prophets said to the princes and to all the people, The judgment of death [is due] to this man; because he has prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.
Te reo o te koa, te reo o te hari, te reo o te tane marena hou me te reo o te wahine marena hou, te reo hoki o te hunga e ki ana, Whakawhetai ki a Ihowa o nga mano, he pai hoki a Ihowa, he mau tonu ano tana mahi tohu: o te hunga hoki e kawe mai ana i nga whakahere whakawhetai ki roto ki te whare o Ihowa. No te mea ka whakahokia mai ano e ahau te whenua i te whakarau, ka rite ano ki to te timatanga, e ai ta Ihowa.
12 Then Jeremias spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying, The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city, all the words which ye have heard.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano: Tera ano te wahi e ururua nei, kahore nei he tangata, kahore he kararehe, me ona pa katoa, ka nohoia ano e nga hepara, e mea ana i a ratou hipi kia takoto.
13 And now amend your ways and your works, and hearken to the voice of the Lord; and the Lord shall cease from the evils which he has pronounced against you.
I nga pa o te whenua pukepuke, i nga pa o te mania, i nga pa o te tonga, i te whenua o Pineamine, i nga taha o Hiruharama, i nga pa hoki o Hura, ka haere atu nga hipi i raro i nga ringa o te kaitatau, e ai ta Ihowa.
14 And behold, I am in your hands; do to me as is expedient, and as it is best for you.
Nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e whakamana ai e ahau te kupu pai i korerotia ra e ahau mo te whare o Iharaira, mo te whare hoki o Hura.
15 But know for a certainty, that if ye slay me, ye bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon them that dwell in it; for in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak in your ears all these words.
I aua ra, a i taua wa, ka meinga e ahau tetahi Manga o te tika kia tupu ake mo Rawiri; a ka mahia e ia te whakawa me te tika ki te whenua.
16 Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the false prophets; Judgment of death is not [due] to this man; for he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.
I aua ra ka whakaorangia a Hura, ka moho humarie hoki a Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa tenei e huaina mona, Ko Ihowa to tatou tika.
17 And there rose up men of the elders of the land, and said to all the assembly of the people,
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, E kore e whakakorea he tangata mo Rawiri hei noho ki te torona o te whare o Iharaira;
18 Michaeas the Morathite lived in the days of Ezekias king of Juda, and said to all the people of Juda, Thus saith the Lord; Sion shall be ploughed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become a desolation, and the mountain of the house shall be a thicket of trees.
E kore ano e whakakorea atu he tangata mo nga tohunga, mo nga Riwaiti i toku aroaro, hei whakaeke i nga tahunga tinana, hei tahu i nga whakahere, hei mahi i te patunga tapu i nga ra katoa.
19 Did Ezekias and all Juda in any way slay him? Was it not that they feared the Lord, and they made supplication before the Lord, and the Lord ceased from the evils which he [had] pronounced against them? whereas we have wrought great evil against our own souls.
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia; i ki ia,
20 And there was [another] man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Samaeas of Cariathiarim; and he prophesied concerning this land according to all the words of Jeremias.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ki te taea e koutou te whakataka taku kawenata o te awatea, me taku kawenata o te po, kia kore ai he ao, he po, i o raua wa e tika ai;
21 And king Joakim and all the princes heard all his words, and sought to slay him; and Urias heard [it] and went into Egypt.
Katahi ka taka taku kawenata ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, e kore ai he tama mana, hei kingi ki tona torona; me taku hoki ki aku minita, ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga tohunga.
22 And the king sent men into Egypt;
E kore nei te ope o te rangi e taea te tatau, e kore ano te onepu o te moana e taea te mehua, ka pena ano taku whakanui i nga uri o taku pononga, o Rawiri, i nga Riwaiti hoki e minita nei ki ahau.
23 and they brought him thence, and brought him into the king; and he smote him with the sword, and cast him into the sepulchre of the children of his people.
A ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia; i mea ia,
24 Nevertheless the hand of Achicam son of Saphan was with Jeremias, to prevent his being delivered into the hands of the people, or being killed.
Kahore ranei koe e mahara ki ta tenei iwi i korero ai, i mea ai, Ko nga hapu e rua i whiriwhiria ra e Ihowa, kua paopaongia e ia? Ko ta ratou whakahawea tena ki taku iwi, kia kaua ratou e kiia ano he iwi i to ratou aroaro.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ki te kahore e tu taku kawenata o te ao, o te po, a ehara nga tikanga o te rangi, o te whenua, i te mea whakatakoto naku;
Katahi ka paopaongia e ahau nga uri o Hakopa raua ko taku pononga, ko Rawiri, e kore ai e tangohia tetahi o ona uri hei kaiwhakahaere tikanga mo nga uri o Aperahama, o Ihaka, o Hakopa: no te mea ka whakahokia mai ratou e ahau i te whakarau, ka t ohungia hoki ratou e ahau.
