Jeremias 51
1 THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS for all the Jews dwelling in the land of Egypt, and for those settled in Magdolo and in Taphnas, and in the land of Pathura, saying,
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Nana, ka whakaarahia e ahau he hau whakamoti mo Papurona, mo te hunga hoki e noho ana i Repekamai.
2 Thus has the Lord God of Israel said; Ye have seen all the evils which I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon the cities of Juda; and, behold, they are desolate without inhabitants,
Ka unga ano e ahau he kaititaritari ki Papurona, a ka titaria e ratou; ka meinga tona whenua kia takoto kau: no te mea i te ra o te he ka tatau ratou ki a ia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.
3 because of their wickedness, which they have wrought to provoke me, [by] going to burn incense to other gods, whom ye knew not.
Kaua te kiakopere e whakapiko i tana kopere, kaua ano hoki ia e whakarewa ake i a ia me te pukupuku ki runga i a ia: kaua ana taitama e tohunga; whakangaromia rawatia e koutou tana ope katoa.
4 yet I sent to you my servants the prophets early in the morning, and I sent, saying, Do not ye this abominable thing which I hate.
Na ka hinga nga tupapaku ki te whenua o nga Karari, he mea wero ki ona ara.
5 But they hearkened not to me, and inclined not their ear to turn from their wickedness, so as not to burn incense to strange gods.
Kahore hoki a Iharaira i whakarerea, kahore ano hoki a Hura, e tona Atua, e Ihowa o nga mano; ahakoa kei te kapi to ratou whenua i te hara ki te Mea Tapu o Iharaira.
6 So mine anger and my wrath dropped [upon them], and was kindled in the gates of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they became a desolation and a waste, as at this day.
Rere atu i roto o Papurona, e kuhu he tangata i tona wairua i tona; kei hatepea atu koutou i roto i tona he; no te mea ko te wa tenei o ta Ihowa rapu utu; ka rite tana utu ki a ia.
7 And now thus has the Lord Almighty said, Wherefore do ye commit [these] great evils against your souls? to cut off man and woman of you, infant and suckling from the midst of Juda, to the end that not one of you should be left;
He kapu koura a Papurona i roto i te ringa o Ihowa, nana i haurangi ai te whenua katoa: kua inumia tona waina e nga iwi; na reira ka haurangi nga iwi.
8 by provoking me with the works of your hands, to burn incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which ye entered to dwell there, that ye might be cut off, and that ye might become a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
Inamata kua taka a Papurona, kua pakaru: e tangi ki a ia; e mau i te pama mo tona mamae, me kore noa ia e taea te rongoa.
9 Have ye forgotten the sins of your fathers, and the sins of the kings of Juda, and the sins of your princes, and the sins of your wives, which they wrought in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Tera e rongoatia e matou a Papurona, heoi kihai ia i ora: whakarerea ia, ka haere tatou ki tona whenua, ki tona whenua; no te mea kua tutuki atu tona whakawa ki te rangi, kua rewa ake ki nga kapua ra ano.
10 And have not ceased even to this day, and they have not kept to my ordinances, which I set before their fathers.
Kua whakaputaina e Ihowa to tatou tika: haere mai, kia korerotia e tatou te mahi a Ihowa, a to tatou Atua ki Hiona.
11 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold I do set my face against [you]
Whakakoia nga pere; puritia nga whakangungu rakau, kia mau: kua whakaohongia e Ihowa te wairua o nga kingi o nga Meri; he tikanga hoki tana mo Papurona kia whakangaromia; no te mea he rapunga utu tenei na Ihowa, he rapunga utu mo tona temepara.
12 to destroy all the remnant that are in Egypt; and they shall fall by the sword, and by famine, and shall be consumed small and great: and they shall be for reproach, and for destruction, and for a curse.
Whakaarahia he kara ki nga taiepa o Papurona, whakakahangia nga kaitiaki, whakaritea nga kaitiaki, whakatakotoria nga pehipehi: kua takoto hoki i a Ihowa, kua oti ano i a ia tana i korero ai mo nga tangata o Papurona.
13 And I will visit them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have visited Jerusalem, with sword and with famine:
E te wahine e noho na i runga i nga wai maha, he maha nei ou taonga, kua tae mai tou whakamutunga, te ruri mo tou apo taonga.
14 and there shall not one be preserved of the remnant of Juda that sojourn in the land of Egypt, to return to the land of Juda, to which they hope in their hearts to return: they shall not return, but only they that escape.
Kua oatitia e Ihowa o nga mano tona oranga, kua mea, He pono ka whakakiia koe e ahau ki te tangata, kei te huhu te rite; a ka hamama ratou ki a koe.
15 Then all the men that knew that their wives burned incense, and all the women, a great multitude, and all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathura, answered Jeremias, saying,
Nana i hanga te whenua, na tona kaha; ko te ao nana i whakapumau, na ona whakaaro nui; ko nga rangi na tona matauranga i hora.
16 [As for] the word which thou hast spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken to thee.
Kia puaki tona reo, ka haruru nga wai i nga rangi, ka meinga e ia nga kohu kia piki ake i nga pito o te whenua; e hanga ana e ia nga uira me te ua, e whakaputaina mai ana te hau i roto i ona whare taonga.
17 For we will surely perform every word that shall proceed out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour drink-offerings to her, as we and our fathers have done, and our kings and princes, in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and [so] we were filled with bread, and were well, and saw no evils.
Ka poauau katoa te tangata, ka kore he mohio; whakama iho nga kaiwhakarewa koura katoa i tana whakapakoko: he mea teka hoki tana i whakarewa ai, kahore he manawa i roto i a ratou.
18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, we have all been brought low, and have been consumed by sword and by famine.
He horihori kau ratou, he mea pohehe: ka ngaro ratou i te wa e tirotirohia ai ratou.
19 And whereas we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured drink-offerings to her, did we make cakes to her, and pour drink-offerings to her, without our husbands?
Kahore e rite ki era te wahi i a Hakopa: ko ia hoki te kaiwhakaahua o nga mea katoa; a ko Iharaira te iwi o tona kainga tupu: ko Ihowa o nga mano tona ingoa.
20 Then Jeremias answered all the people, the mighty men, and the women, and all the people that returned him [these] words for answer, saying,
Ko koe taku toki poutangata, ko aku patu mo te whawhai: hei wawahi koe maku mo nga iwi, hei whakamoti maku mo nga kingitanga;
21 Did not the Lord remember the incense which ye burned in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, and your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land? and came it not into his heart?
Hei wawahi ano koe maku mo te hoiho raua ko tona kaieke: hei wawahi koe maku mo te hariata, mo te tangata ano i runga;
22 And the Lord could no longer bear [you], because of the wickedness of your doings, and because of your abominations which ye wrought; and so your land became a desolation and a waste, and a curse, as at this day;
Hei wawahi koe maku mo te tangata, mo te wahine; hei wawahi koe maku mo te koroheke, mo te tamariki; hei wawahi koe maku mo te taitama, mo te taitamahine;
23 because of your burning incense, and [because] of the things wherein ye sinned against the Lord: and ye have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in his ordinances, and in his law, and in his testimonies; and so these evils have come upon you.
Hei wawahi koe maku mo te hepara, mo tana kahui; hei wawahi koe maku mo te kaiparau, mo ana kau hoki kua oti te ioka; hei wawahi koe maku mo nga rangatira, mo nga ariki.
24 And Jeremias said to the people, and to the women, Hear ye the word of the Lord.
Ka utua hoki e ahau a Papurona, me nga tangata katoa o Karari mo ta ratou kino katoa i mea ai ratou ki Hiona i ta koutou tirohanga, e ai ta Ihowa.
25 Thus has the Lord God of Israel said; Ye women have spoken with your mouth, and ye fulfilled [it] with your hands, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour drink-offerings to her: full well did ye keep to your vows, and ye have indeed performed [them].
Nana, hei hoariri ahau mou, e te maunga whakamoti, e ai ta Ihowa, e huna na koe i te whenua katoa: a ka totoro atu toku ringa ki a koe, ka hurihia iho koe i runga i nga toka, a ka meinga koe hei maunga kua oti te tahu.
26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Jews dwelling in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord, my name shall no longer be in the mouth of every Jew to say, The Lord lives, in all the land of Egypt.
A e kore tetahi kohatu e tangohia mai e ratou i a koe mo te kokonga, tetahi kohatu ranei mo nga turanga; engari ka ururua koe a ake ake, e ai ta Ihowa.
27 For I have watched over them, to hurt them, and not to do them good: and all the Jews dwelling in the land of Egypt shall perish by sword and by famine, until they are utterly consumed.
Whakaarahia e koe he kara ki te whenua, whakatangihia te tetere i roto i nga iwi, kia rite mai nga iwi hei whawhai ki a ia, karangarangatia hei whawhai ki a ia nga kingitanga o Ararata, o Mini, o Ahakenaha: whakaritea he rangatira hei mea ki a i a; meinga nga hoiho kia kokiri ake ano he tatarakihi puhuruhuru.
28 And they that escape the sword shall return to the land of Juda few in number, and the remnant of Juda, who have continued in the land [of] Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose word shall stand.
Kia rite mai nga iwi, nga kingi o nga Meri, o ratou rangatira, o ratou ariki, me te whenua katoa ano o tona kingitanga hei whawhai ki a ia.
29 And this [shall be] a sign to you, that I will visit you for evil.
Na kei te wiri te whenua, kei te mamae: no te mea kei te tu tonu nga whakaaro katoa o Ihowa mo Papurona, kia meinga te whenua o Papurona hei ururua, te ai he tangata.
30 Thus said the Lord; Behold, I [will] give Uaphres king of Egypt into the hands of his enemy, and into the hands of one that seeks his life; as I gave Sedekias king of Juda into the hands of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, his enemy, and who sought his life.
Kua kahore nga marohirohi o Papurona e whawhai, kei te noho ratou i roto i o ratou wahi kaha; kua kore to ratou kaha; kua rite ratou ki te wahine: kua wera ona nohoanga; kua whati ona tutaki.
31 THE WORD WHICH JEREMIAS THE PROPHET spoke to Baruch son of Nerias, when he wrote these words in the book from the mouth of Jeremias, in the fourth year of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda.
Ka rere tetahi kaikorero kia tutaki ki tetahi, tetahi karere hoki kia tutaki ki tetahi, hei whakaatu ki te kingi o Papurona kua horo tona pa i nga taha katoa:
32 Thus has the Lord said to thee, O Baruch.
Kua riro ano nga whitinga, kua wera nga kakaho i te ahi, a kua mataku nga tangata whawhai.
33 Whereas thou hast said, Alas! alas! for the Lord has laid a grievous trouble upon me; I lay down in groaning, I found no rest;
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: Ko te rite i te tamahine a Papurona kei te patunga witi i te wa e takahia ai; he wa iti ake, ka tae ki te wa o tona kotinga.
34 say thou to him, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I pull down those whom I have built up, and I pluck up those whom I have planted.
Kua pau ahau i a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, kua pepe ahau i a ia, kua meinga ahau e ia hei oko tahanga, kua horomia ahau e ia ano na te tarakona, whakakiia ana hoki e ia tona kopu ki aku kia reka; kua maka ahau e ia ki waho.
35 And wilt thou seek great things for thyself? seek [them] not: for, behold, I bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but I will give [to thee] thy life for a spoil in every place whither thou shalt go.
Hei runga i Papurona te tukinotanga ki ahau, ki oku kikokiko hoki, e ai ta te wahine o Hiona; a hei runga i nga tangata o Karari oku toto, e ai ta Hiruharama.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka tohe ahau i tau tohe, a ka rapu ahau i nga utu mou; a ka mimiti i ahau tona moana, ka maroke hoki ona puna.
A ka waiho a Papurona hei puranga, hei nohoanga mo nga kirehe mohoao, hei miharotanga, hei whakahianga atu, te ai te tangata.
Ka hamama ngatahi ratou, ano he raiona; ka ngangara ratou ano he kuao raiona.
Kia werawera ratou, ka taka e ahau he hakari ma ratou, a ka whakahaurangitia ratou e ahau, kia whakamanamana ai ratou, kia moe ai i te moe roa, te korikori, e ai ta Ihowa.
Ka riro ratou i ahau ki raro, ano he reme ki te patunga; ano he hipi toa i huihuia atu ki nga koati toa.
Taukiri e, kua horo a Hehaka! kua huakina tatatia te whakamoemiti a te whenua katoa. Taukiri e kua waiho a Papurona hei ururua i roto i nga iwi!
Kua tae ake te moana ki Papurona; kua taupokina ia e ona ngaru maha.
Kua moti ona pa, he whenua waikore, he ururua, e kore e nohoia e tetahi tangata, e kore hoki tetahi tama a te tangata e tika na reira.
Ka whiua hoki e ahau a Pere i Papurona, ka whakaputaina mai e ahau i roto i tona mangai te mea i horomia e ia; e kore ano nga iwi e rere a wai mai ki a ia a mua; ae ra, ka hinga ano te taiepa o Papurona.
E taku iwi, puta atu i roto i a ia, kahaki koutou i a koutou, i tera, i tera, i te mura o to Ihowa riri.
Kei hopi o koutou ngakau, kei wehi hoki koutou ki te rongo meake nei rangona ki te whenua; no te mea ka tae mai he rongo i tetahi tau, a i muri i tena i tetahi atu tau ka tae mai ano he rongo, he tukino ki te whenua, he rangatira e whakatika ana ki te rangatira.
Mo reira, nana, kei te haere mai nga ra e whiua ai e ahau nga whakapakoko o Papurona, a ka whakama tona whenua katoa; a ka hinga ona tupapaku i roto i a ia.
Na katahi ka waiata te rangi me te whenua, me nga mea katoa i reira ki Papurona, he hari hoki; no te mea ka haere mai nga kaipahua ki a ia i te raki, e ai ta Ihowa.
I te mea na Papurona i mea nga tupapaku o Iharaira kia hinga, waihoki ka hinga ki Papurona nga tupapaku o te whenua katoa.
E koutou kua mawhiti atu na i te hoari, haere koutou, kaua e tu noa; mahara ki a Ihowa i tawhiti, tukua mai hoki a Hiruharama ki roto ki o koutou ngakau.
Whakama ana matou, mo matou i rongo i te tawai; kua taupokina o matou mata e te porohurahu: kua tae mai hoki nga tautangata ki nga wahi tapu o te whare o Ihowa.
Mo reira, nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e whiua ai e ahau ana whakapakoko; a tera e ngunguru te hunga i werohia a puta noa i tona whenua katoa.
Ahakoa i kake atu a Papurona ki runga ki te rangi, ahakoa i hanga e ia tona wahi tiketike kaha kia kaha rawa, e tae atu ano i ahau nga kaipahua ki a ia, e ai ta Ihowa.
He reo te hamama mai nei i Papurona, he wawahanga nui kei te whenua o nga Karari!
No te mea kei te pahua a Ihowa i Papurona, a kei te whakakore atu i te reo nui i roto i a ia; a ka haruru o ratou ngaru ano ko nga wai maha, ka puta te tuki o to ratou reo:
Kua tae mai hoki te kaipahua ki a ia, ki Papurona, kua mau hoki ona marohirohi, kua mongamonga a ratou pere: no te mea he Atua a Ihowa no te whakahoki utu, a he pono ka tino takoto tana utu.
Na ka whakahaurangitia e ahau ona rangatira, ona tangata whakaaro nui, ona kawana, ona ariki, ona marohirohi hoki; a ka moe ratou i te moe roa, te korikori, e ai ta te Kingi, ko tona ingoa nei ko Ihowa o nga mano.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano: Ka pakaru rawa nga taiepa wharahi o Papurona, a ka wera ona kuwaha tiketike i te ahi; a ka mauiui nga iwi mo te kore noa iho, nga iwi hoki mo te ahi; a ruha noa ratou.
Ko te kupu i whakahaua e Heremaia poropiti ki a Heraia tama a Neria tama a Maaheia i to raua haerenga tahitanga atu ko Terekia kingi o Hura ki Papurona i te wha o nga tau o tona kingitanga. Na ko Heraia te tino rangatira o te whare kingi.
Na tuhituhia iho e Heremaia ki te pukapuka te kino katoa meake puta ki Papurona, ara enei kupu katoa kua tuhituhia nei mo Papurona.
A i mea a Heremaia ki a Heraia, E tae koe ki Papurona, me tino korero e koe enei kupu katoa,
A ka mea, E Ihowa, kua korerotia e koe tenei wahi kia hatepea atu, kia kaua hoki tetahi e noho ki konei, tangata ranei, kararehe ranei, engari kia waiho tonu hei ururua ake ake.
Na, ka mutu tau korero i tenei pukapuka, herea e koe ki reira tetahi kohatu, ka maka atu ai ki waenganui o Uparati:
A ka mea atu koe, Ka penei te totohutanga o Papurona, e kore hoki e puea ake ano, i te kino e takina mai e ahau ki runga ki a ia: a ka ruha ratou. I mutu ki konei nga kupu a Heremaia.
