< Jeremias 46 >
1 And it came to pass in the ninth month of Sedekias king of Juda, [that] Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.
Ko te kupu a Ihowa i puta mai ki a Heremaia poropiti mo nga iwi:
2 And in the eleventh year of Sedekiass, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the city was broken [up].
Mo Ihipa: mo te ope a Parao Neko kingi o Ihipa, mo tera i te awa, i Uparati, i Karakemihi, i patua ra e Nepukareha kingi o Papurona i te wha o nga tau o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura.
3 And all the leaders of the king of Babylon went in, and sat in the middle gate, Marganasar, and Samagoth, and Nabusachar, and Nabusaris, Nagargas, Naserrabamath, and the rest of the leaders of the king of Babylon,
Whakapaia te whakangungu rakau me te puapua, whakatata ki te whawhai.
Whakanohoia nga hoiho, e eke, e nga kaieke hoiho, a tu atu me o koutou potae; whakakanapatia nga tao, kakahuria nga pukupuku.
He aha ahau i kite ai i tenei? kei te powera ratou, kua hoki ki muri; kua whati noa atu, kihai hoki i titiro whakamuri: kei nga taha katoa te wehi, e ai ta Ihowa.
Kaua te tangata tere e rere atu, kaua hoki te marohirohi e mawhiti; kei te raki, kei te awa, kei Uparati, kua tutuki o ratou waewae, kua hinga.
Ko wai tenei e puhake ake nei me te mea ko te Naera, e tutu nei ona wai me te mea ko nga awa?
I puhake mai a Ihipa ano ko te Naera, i tutu ona wai ano ko nga awa: a ka mea ia, Ka puhake atu ahau, a ka taupokina te whenua; ka ngaro i ahau te pa me ona tangata.
Haere atu, e nga hoiho; e ngana, e nga hariata; tukua atu nga marohirohi; a Kuhu, a Putu, e rahurahu nei i te whakangungu rakau; nga Rurimi, e rahurahu nei, e whakapiko nei i te kopere.
Ko taua ra hoki he ra na te Ariki, na Ihowa o nga mano, he ra rapu utu, e whai utu ai ia i ona hoariri; a ka horomi te hoari, a ka makona, ka inu hoki, ki rawa i o ratou toto; no te mea he patunga tapu ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa o nga mano i te whenu a ki te raki, i te taha o te awa o Uparati.
Haere ki runga, ki Kireara, e te tamahine wahine a Ihipa, ka tiki he pama; ka maumau tau mahi i nga rongoa maha; kahore he ora mou.
Kua rongo nga iwi ki tou whakama, kua paku tau karanga ki nga whenua: kua tutuki nei hoki te waewae o te marohirohi ki te marohirohi, kua hinga ngatahi tautokorua.
Ko te kupu i korerotia e Ihowa ki a Heremaia poropiti, tera ka haere mai a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona ki te patu i Ihipa.
14 and they sent, and took Jeremias out of the court of the prison, and gave him [in charge] to Godolias the son of Achicam, the son of Saphan: and they brought him out, and he sat in the midst of the people.
Kauwhautia e koutou ki Ihipa, panuitia ki Mikitoro, panuitia ki Nopo, ki Tahapanehe, mea atu, E tu, kia tumatohi; kua kai hoki te hoari i tetahi taha ou, i tetahi taha.
15 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias in the court of the prison, saying,
He aha ou maia i tahia atu ai? kihai ratou i tu, na Ihowa hoki ratou i a atu.
16 Go and say to Abdemelech the Ethiopian, Thus said the Lord God of Israel; Behold, I [will] bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good.
He tini nga mea nana i tukoki ai, ae ra, i hinga ratou tetahi ki runga ki tetahi: i mea ano, Whakatika, tatou ka haere ki to tatou nei iwi, ki te whenua i whanau ai tatou, i te hoari tukino.
17 But I will save you in that day, and I will by no means deliver you into the hands of the men before whom you are afraid.
I karanga ratou i reira, He turituri kau a Parao kingi o Ihipa; kua tukua e ia kia pahemo te wa i whakaritea.
18 For I will surely save you, and you shall by no means fall by the sword; and you shall find your life, because you did trust in me, says the Lord.
E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Kingi, ko Ihowa o nga mano nei tona ingoa, kei Taporo i roto i nga maunga, kei Karamere hoki i te moana he rite mo tona haerenga mai.
E koe, e te tamahine, e noho nei i Ihipa, mahia nga mea mou mo te whakaraunga: no te mea ka ururuatia a Nopo, ka wera, te ai te tangata hei noho.
He kuao kau ataahua rawa a Ihipa; otiia kua tae mai te whakangaro i te raki, tenei kua tae mai.
Ko ana tangata hoki i utu ai, rite tonu i roto i a ia ki te kuao whangai; kua tahuri atu ano hoki ratou, kua oma ngatahi atu, kihai hoki i tu; no te mea kua tae mai te ra o to ratou aitua ki a ratou, te wa e whiua ai.
Ko tona reo ka rite te puaki ki to te nakahi; no te mea he taua ta ratou ina haere, ka haere mai ratou ki a ia me nga toki, ka rite ki nga kaitapahi rakau.
Ka tuaina e ratou tona ngahere, e ai ta Ihowa, ahakoa e kore tona mutunga e taea te rapu; he tini ke hoki ratou i te mawhitiwhiti, e kore e taea te tatau.
Ka whakama te tamahine a Ihipa; ka tukua ia ki te ringa o te iwi ki te raki.
E mea ana a Ihowa o nga mano, te Atua o Iharaira: Nana, ka whiua e ahau a Amono o No, a Parao, a Ihipa hoki, me o reira atua, me o reira kingi; a Parao rawa, ratou ko te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki a ia:
Ka tukua hoki ratou e ahau ki te ringa o te hunga e whai ana kia whakamatea ratou, ki te ringa ano o Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, ki te ringa o ana tangata: a muri iho ka nohoia, ka pera me nga ra o mua, e ai ta Ihowa.
Ko koe ia, kaua e wehi, e taku pononga, e Hakopa, kaua e pawera, e Iharaira: no te mea, nana, maku koe e whakaora i tawhiti, ou uri hoki i te whenua i whakaraua ai ratou; a ka hoki mai a Hakopa, ka ata noho, ka whai tanga manawa, te ai he kaiwha kawehi mona.
Kaua koe e wehi, e taku pononga, e Hakopa, e ai ta Ihowa; kei a koe nei hoki ahau: ka poto rawa hoki i ahau nga iwi katoa kua peia nei koe e ahau ki reira, otiia e kore koe e poto rawa i ahau; engari ka pakia koe e ahau, he mea whakarite marie, e kore ia koe e tukua kia kore e whiua.
