Isaiah 52
1 Rise up, Rise up! Clothe yourself in strength, O Zion! Put on the garments of your glory, O Jerusalem, the city of the Holy One! For the uncircumcised and the unclean will no longer pass through you.
Maranga, maranga; kakahuria tou kaha, e Hiona; kakahuria ou kahu whakapaipai, e Hiruharama, e te pa tapu! no te mea heoi ano haerenga mai ki a koe o te mea kokotikore, o te mea poke.
2 Shake yourself from the dust! Arise and sit up, O Jerusalem! Loose the chains from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion!
Ruperupea atu te puehu i a koe, whakatika, noho iho, e Hiruharama: wetekina nga here i tou kaki, e te tamahine herehere a Hiona.
3 For thus says the Lord: You were sold for nothing, and you will be redeemed without money.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, Kua hokona kautia atu koutou; na ehara i te moni mana koutou e whakahoki mai.
4 For thus says the Lord God: My people descended into Egypt, in the beginning, in order to sojourn there. But the Assyrian oppressed them, without any cause at all.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, I haere atu taku iwi ki Ihipa i mua, ki reira noho ai; na kahore he rawa i whakatupuria kinotia ai ratou e te Ahiriana.
5 And now, what is left for me here, says the Lord? For my people have been taken away without cause. Their lords treat them unjustly, says the Lord. And my name is being continually blasphemed all day long.
Na he aha ra taku i konei, e ai ta Ihowa; ka kahakina kautia atu nei hoki taku iwi? tangi aue ana i o ratou rangatira, e ai ta Ihowa, e whakahaweatia tonutia ana toku ingoa i tenei ra, i tenei ra.
6 Because of this, my people will know my name, in that day. For it is I myself who is speaking. Behold, I am here.
Mo konei ka mohio taku iwi ki toku ingoa: mo konei ka mohio ratou i taua ra ko ahau te korero nei; nana, ko ahau tenei.
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger and the preacher of peace! Announcing good and preaching peace, they are saying to Zion, “Your God will reign!”
Ano te ahuareka o nga waewae i runga i nga maunga o te kaikawe i te rongo pai, e kauwhau ana i te maunga rongo; e kawe mai ana i te rongo whakahari o te pai, e kauwhau ana i te ora; e mea ana ki a Hiona, E kingi ana tou Atua!
8 It is the voice of your watchmen. They have lifted up their voice. They will praise together. For they will see eye to eye, when the Lord converts Zion.
Te reo o au tutei! ka maranga i a ratou te reo, ka waiata ngatahi; no te mea ka kite ratou he kanohi, he kanohi, ua whakahoki a Ihowa i Hiona.
9 Be glad and rejoice together, O deserts of Jerusalem! For the Lord has consoled his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
Hamama, waiata ngatahi, e nga wahi o Hiruharama kua ururuatia; kua whakamarie hoki a Ihowa i tana iwi, kua hoko i Hiruharama.
10 The Lord has prepared his holy arm, in the sight of all the Gentiles. And all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
Kua huhua te ringa tapu o Ihowa ki te aroaro o nga tauiwi katoa, a ka kite nga pito katoa o te ao i te whakaora a to tatou Atua.
11 Depart, depart, get out of here! Do not be willing to touch what is polluted. Go out from her midst! Be cleansed, you who bear the vessels of the Lord.
Maunu, maunu, haere atu i reira: kaua e pa ki te mea poke; haere atu i roto i a ia; kia ma, e nga kai mau o nga oko a Ihowa.
12 For you will not go out in a tumult, nor will you take flight in a hurry. For the Lord will precede you, and the God of Israel will gather you.
E kore hoki koutou e haere kaika, e kore hoki e haere pera i te whati; no te mea ka haere a Ihowa i to koutou aroaro; ko te Atua hoki o Iharaira hei hiku mo koutou.
13 Behold, my servant will understand; he will be exalted and lifted up, and he will be very sublime.
Nana, ka mahi tupato taku pononga, ka whakatiketiketia ia, ka hapainga ki runga, a ka tiketike rawa atu.
14 Just as they were stupefied over you, so will his countenance be without glory among men, and his appearance, among the sons of men.
Pera i te tini i miharo ki a koe; i kino iho hoki tona kanohi i to te tangata, tona ahua i to nga tama a te tangata:
15 He will sprinkle many nations; kings will close their mouth because of him. And those to whom he was not described, have seen. And those who have not heard, have considered.
Waihoki he maha nga iwi ka tauhiuhia e ia; a ka kopi te mangai o nga kingi ki a ia; no te mea ko nga mea kihai i korerotia ki a ratou ka kitea, ko nga mea kihai i rangona ka mohiotia.
