Isaiah 2
1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Ko te kupu i kitea e Ihaia tama a Amoho mo Hura raua ko Hiurharama.
2 And it shall come to pass in the end of days, [that] the mountain of Jehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be lifted up above the hills; and all the nations shall flow unto it.
Na tenei ake, kei nga ra whakamutunga, ka whakapumautia te maunga i to Ihowa whare ki te tihi o nga maunga, ka whakanekehia ake ano ki runga i nga pukepuke; a ka rere nga iwi katoa ki reira.
3 And many peoples shall go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and Jehovah's word from Jerusalem.
Ka haere hoki nga iwi maha, ka mea, Haere mai, tatou ka haere ki runga ki te maunga o Ihowa, ki te whare o te Atua o Hakopa: ka whakaakona tatou e ia ki ana ara; ka haere hoki tatou i ana huarahi; no te mea ka puta mai te ture i Hiona, me te kupu a Ihowa i Hiruharama.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall reprove many peoples; and they shall forge their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Ka whakarite hoki ia i nga whakawa a nga iwi, ka riria ano e ia nga iwi maha: na ka patupatua e ratou a ratou hoari hei hea parau, a ratou tao hei mea tapahi manga; e kore tetahi iwi e hapai hoari ki tetahi iwi, mutu pu ta ratou ako ki te whawhai.
5 House of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
E te whare o Hakopa, haere mai, tena tatou ka haere i to Ihowa marama.
6 For thou hast cast off thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled [with what comes] from the east, and use auguries like the Philistines, and ally themselves with the children of foreigners.
Kua whakarerea nei e koe tau iwi, te whare o Hakopa, no te mea kei te ki ratou i nga tikanga mai no te rawhiti, a he tohunga maori ratou, he pera me nga Pirihitini, e papaki ringa ana hoki ratou me nga tamariki a rau o iwi.
7 And their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end of their treasures: their land also is full of horses, and there is no end of their chariots.
Ki tonu hoki to ratou whenua i te hiriwa, i te koura, a kahore he mutunga o o ratou taonga: kapi tonu hoki to ratou whenua i te hoiho, a kahore he mutunga o a ratou hariata.
8 And their land is full of idols; they bow themselves down to the work of their own hands, to that which their fingers have made.
Ko to ratou whenua ki tonu i te whakapakoko; e koropiko ana ratou ki te mahi a o ratou ringa, ki ta o ratou maihao i hanga ai.
9 And the mean man shall be bowed down, and the great man shall be brought low: and do not thou forgive them!
A e whakapikoa ana te tangata ware, e whakaititia ana te tangata nui; mo reira kaua ratou e tohungia.
10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
E tomo ki roto ki te kamaka, e huna ki roto ki te puehu, i te wehi ki a Ihowa, i te kororia o tona nui.
11 The lofty eyes of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
Ka whakaititia nga kanohi whakapehapeha o te tangata, ka whakapikoa iho ano hoki te whakakae o nga tangata, a ko Ihowa anake e whakanuia i taua ra.
12 For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon everything proud and lofty, and upon everything lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
No te mea ka tae iho he ra no Ihowa o nga mano ki te hunga whakapehapeha, ki te hunga whakakae katoa, ki te hunga katoa kua neke ake; a ka whakaititia iho:
13 and upon all the cedars of Lebanon, high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan;
Ki nga hita katoa ano o Repanona kua tiketike, kua neke ake, ki nga oki katoa ano o Pahana;
14 and upon all the lofty mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up;
Ki nga maunga tiketike katoa, ki nga pukepuke katoa kua purero ki runga:
15 and upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall;
Ki nga pourewa tiketike katoa, ki nga taiepa kaha katoa ano hoki,
16 and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant works of art.
Ki nga kaipuke katoa o Tarahihi, ki nga whakaahua katoa e minaminatia ana.
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day:
A e whakapikoa iho to te tangata whakapehapeha, e whakaititia iho ana ano hoki te whakakake o nga tangata, ko Ihowa anake e whakanuia i taua ra.
18 and the idols shall utterly pass away.
A ka ngaro whakarere nga whakapakoko,
19 And they shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he shall arise to terrify the earth.
A ka haere nga tangata ki nga ana o nga kamaka, ki nga rua o te whenua, i te wehi ki a Ihowa, i te kororia o tona nui, ina whakatika ia ki te rure kaha i te whenua.
20 In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made [each] for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
A taua ra ka akiritia atu e te tangata ana whakapakoko hiriwa me ana whakapakoko koura i hanga e ratou hei koropikotanga mana, ki nga kiore, ki nga pekapeka;
21 to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the fissures of the cliffs, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he shall arise to terrify the earth.
Haere ai ki nga ana o nga kohatu, ki nga kapiti o nga kamaka, i te wehi ki a Ihowa, i te kororia o tona nui, ina whakatika ia ki te rurerure i te whenua.
22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for what account is to be made of him?
Kati ta koutou mea ki te tangata kei ona pongaponga nei tona manawa; kia pehea hoki te whakaaro ki a ia?
