< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it happened in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah: it happened that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
Na i te wha o nga tau o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura, ka puta mai tenei kupu ki a Heremaia na Ihowa; i mea ia,
2 “Take the volume of a book, and you shall write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah, and against all the nations, from the day when I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
Tikina tetahi pukapuka mau, ka tuhituhi ki reira i nga kupu katoa i korerotia e ahau ki a koe mo Iharaira, mo Hura, mo nga iwi katoa hoki, o te ra ano i korero ai ahau ki a koe, o nga ra i a Hohia a tae noa ki tenei ra.
3 Perhaps it may be that the house of Judah, upon hearing all the evils that I have decided to do to them, may return, each one from his wicked way, and then I will forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
Tera pea te whare o Hura e rongo ki te kino katoa e whakaaro nei ahau kia meatia ki a ratou; kia tahuri ratou, ia tangata, ia tangata, i o ratou ara kino; a tera e murua e ahau to ratou he, to ratou hara.
4 Therefore, Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him, in the volume of a book.
Katahi a Heremaia ka karanga ki a Paruku, tama a Neria: na ka tuhituhia e Paruku ki te pukapuka no te mangai o Heremaia, nga kupu katoa a Ihowa i korero ai ki a ia.
5 And Jeremiah instructed Baruch, saying: “I am confined, and so I am unable to enter into the house of the Lord.
Na ka whakahau a Heremaia i a Paruku, ka mea, Kua tutakina ahau: e kore e ahei i ahau te haere ki te whare o Ihowa.
6 Therefore, you shall enter and read from the volume, in which you have written from my mouth the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the house of the Lord on the day of the fast. Moreover, you shall also read them in the hearing of all those of Judah who are arriving from their cities.
No reira haere koe, ka korero i te pukapuka i tuhituhia e koe, ko taku i korero ai, ko nga kupu a Ihowa, ki nga taringa o te iwi i te whare o Ihowa i te ra nohopuku: me korero ano e koe ki nga taringa o Hura katoa e haere mai ana i o ratou pa.
7 Perhaps it may happen that they pray in the sight of the Lord, and each one may return from his wicked way. For great is the fury and indignation that the Lord has declared against this people.”
Tera pea ka takoto ta ratou inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a ka hoki ratou i tona ara kino, i tona ara kino: he nui hoki te riri, he nui te weriweri i korerotia e Ihowa mo tenei iwi.
8 And Baruch, the son of Neriah, acted in accord with all that Jeremiah, the prophet, had instructed him, reading from the volume the words of the Lord, in the house of the Lord.
Na meatia ana e Paruku tama a Neria nga mea katoa i whakahaua ai ia e Heremaia poropiti, korerotia ana e ia i roto i te pukapuka nga kupu a Ihowa i te whare o Ihowa.
9 And it happened that, in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, they proclaimed a fast, in the sight of the Lord, to all the people in Jerusalem, and to the entire multitude which had flowed together, from the cities of Judah, into Jerusalem.
Na i te rima o nga tau o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura, i te iwa o nga marama, ka karangatia e ratou he nohopuku ki te aroaro o Ihowa mo te iwi katoa i Hiruharama, mo te iwi katoa hoki i haere mai i nga pa o Hura ki Hiruharama.
10 And Baruch read from the volume the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, at the treasury of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the upper vestibule, at the entrance to the new gate of the house of the Lord, in the hearing of all the people.
Katahi ka korerotia e Paruku i roto i te pukapuka nga kupu a Heremaia i roto i te whare o Ihowa, i te ruma o te kaituhituhi, o Kemaria tama a Hapana, i te marae o runga, i te kuwaha o te keti hou o te whare o Ihowa, me te whakarongo ano te iwi k atoa.
11 And when Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book,
A, no te rongonga o Mikaia tama a Kemaria, tama a Hapana, ki nga kupu katoa a Ihowa i roto i te pukapuka,
12 he descended to the house of the king, to the treasury of the scribe. And behold, all the leaders were sitting there: Elishama, the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the leaders.
Ka haere ia ki raro, ki te whare o te kingi, ki te ruma o te kaituhituhi, na, i reira nga rangatira katoa e noho ana, a Erihama kaituhituhi, ratou ko Teraia tama a Hemaia, ko Erenatana tama a Akaporo, ko Kemaria tama a Hapana, ko Terekia tama a Hanania, ko nga rangatira katoa ano hoki.
13 And Micaiah announced to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the volume to the ears of the people.
Katahi a Mikaia ka whakaatu ki a ratou i nga kupu katoa i rongo ai ia, i te korerotanga a Paruku i te pukapuka ki nga taringa o te iwi.
14 And so, all the leaders sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the volume, from which you have read in the hearing of the people, and come.” Therefore, Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the volume in his hand, and he went to them.
Na reira ka unga atu e nga rangatira katoa a Iehuri, tama a Netania, tama a Heremia, tama a Kuhi, ki a Paruku, hei ki atu, Mauria mai e koe i tou ringa te pukapuka i korerotia na e koe ki nga taringa o te iwi, a ka haere mai. Na mauria ana e Par uku tama a Neria te pukapuka i tona ringa, a haere ana ki a ratou.
15 And they said to him, “Sit and read these things in our hearing.” And Baruch read in their hearing.
Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, Tena, e noho, korerotia hoki ki o matou taringa. Heoi korerotia ana e Paruku ki o ratou taringa.
16 Therefore, when they had heard all the words, each one looked at his neighbor in astonishment, and they said to Baruch: “We ought to report all these words to the king.”
Na, i to ratou rongonga ki nga kupu katoa, ka wehi ratou, ka tahuri tetahi ki tetahi, a ka mea atu ki a Paruku, Ka korerotia marietia e matou enei kupu katoa ki te kingi.
17 And they questioned him, saying, “Describe to us how you wrote all these words from his mouth.”
A ka ui ratou ki a Paruku, ka mea, Tena koa, whakaaturia mai ki a matou, I pehea tau tuhituhi i enei kupu katoa a tona mangai?
18 Then Baruch said to them: “He was speaking with his mouth, as if reading to me. And I wrote in a volume with ink.”
Ano ra ko Paruku ki a ratou, Na tona mangai enei kupu katoa i korero ki ahau, a tuhituhia iho e ahau ki te mangumangu ki te pukapuka.
19 And the leaders said to Baruch: “Go away and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are.”
Katahi nga rangatira ka mea ki a Paruku, Haere, e huna i a koe, korua ko Heremaia, kaua hoki tetahi e mohio kei hea korua.
20 And they entered to the king, in the court. Furthermore, they stored the volume in the treasury of Elishama, the scribe. And they announced all the words in the hearing of the king.
Na haere ana ratou ki te kingi ki te marae; otiia i waiho e ratou te pukapuka i te ruma o Erihama kaituhituhi; a korerotia ana e ratou nga kupu katoa ki nga taringa o te kingi.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to take the volume. And bringing it from the treasury of Elishama, the scribe, he read it in the hearing of the king and of all the leaders who were standing around the king.
Heoi ka unga e te kingi a Iehuri ki te tiki i te pukapuka. Na tikina ana e ia i te ruma o Erihama kaituhituhi; a korerotia ana e Iehuri ki nga taringa o te kingi, ki nga taringa hoki o nga rangatira katoa e tu ana i te taha o te kingi.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house, in the ninth month. And there was a hearth placed before him, filled with burning coals.
Na, i te noho te kingi i te whare hotoke i te iwa o nga marama: a he ahi i te kanga ahi e ka ana i tona aroaro.
23 And when Jehudi had read three or four pages, he cut it with a small knife, and he threw it into the fire which was upon the hearth, until the entire volume was consumed by the fire which was upon the hearth.
Na, ka toru, ka wha nga wharangi i korerotia e Iehuri, ka tapahia e te kingi ki te maripi a te kaituhituhi, maka atu ana ki te ahi i te kanga ahi, a pau noa te pukapuka katoa i te ahi i roto i te kanga ahi.
24 And the king and all his servants, who had heard all these words, were not afraid, and they did not rend their garments.
Na kahore ratou i wehi, kahore hoki i haehae i o ratou kakahu, te kingi ranei, tetahi ranei o ana pononga i rongo i enei kupu katoa.
25 Yet truly, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah contradicted the king, so that he might not burn the book. But he did not listen to them.
Na tera a Eranatana ratou ko Teraia, ko Kemaria, kua tohe ki te kingi kia kaua e tahuna te pukapuka: otiia kihai ia i rongo ki a ratou.
26 And the king instructed Jerahmeel, the son of Amelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, so that they would apprehend Baruch, the scribe, and Jeremiah, the prophet. But the Lord concealed them.
Na ka whakahaua e te kingi a Ierameere tama a te kingi, ratou ko Heraia tama a Atariere, ko Heremia tama a Apareere kite hopu i a Paruku kaituhituhi, raua ko Heremaia poropiti; otira i huna raua e Ihowa.
27 And after the king had burned the volume and the words that Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, the prophet, saying:
Katahi ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia, i muri i te tahunga a te kingi i te pukapuka, i nga kupu hoki i tuhituhia ra e Paruku i te mangai o Heremaia; i mea ia,
28 “Again, take another volume and write in it all the former words, which were in the first volume that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, has burned.
Tikina ano tetahi atu pukapuka, tuhituhia ki reira nga kupu katoa o mua ra, o te pukapuka tuatahi i tahuna ra e Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura.
29 And you shall say to Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: Thus says the Lord: You have burned that volume, saying: ‘Why have you written in it, announcing that the king of Babylon will advance quickly, and will devastate this land, and will cause both man and beast to cease from it?’
Na, ko te kupu mau mo Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: I tahuna e koe te pukapuka nei, i ki koe, He aha i tuhituhia ai e koe ki konei, i ki ai, Ka tino haere mai te kingi o Papurona, ka whakangaro i tenei whenua, ka moti ano i a ia te tangata me te kararehe o konei?
30 Because of this, thus says the Lord against Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: There will be, from him, no one who may sit upon the throne of David. And his dead body shall be cast out: to the heat by day, and to the frost by night.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa mo Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura; E kore ia e whai tangata hei noho ki te torona o Rawiri: a ka maka atu tona tinana ki te werawera i te awatea, ki te huka i te po.
31 And I will visit against him, and against his offspring, and against his servants for their iniquities. And I will lead over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and over the men of Judah, all the evil that I have declared against them, for they have not listened.”
Ka whiua hoki ia e ahau, ratou ko ona uri, ko ana tangata mo to ratou he; a ka kawea mai e ahau ki a ratou, ki nga tangata o Hiruharama, ki nga tangata hoki o Hura, te kino katoa i korerotia e ahau mo ratou, a kihai nei ratou i whakarongo.
32 Then Jeremiah took up another volume, and he gave it to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the scribe, who wrote in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, had burned with fire. And moreover, there were many more words added than there had been before.
Na ka tangohia e Heremaia tetahi atu pukapuka, a hoatu ana e ia ki te kaituhituhi, ki a Paruku tama a Neria; nana i tuhituhi ki reira no te mangai o Heremaia nga kupu katoa o te pukapuka i tahuna ra e Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura ki te ahi: a tapirit ia atu ana ki era etahi atu kupu maha pera.
