Jeremiah 26
1 In the beginning of the reigne of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, came this worde from the Lord, saying,
I te timatanga o te kingitanga o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura, ka puta mai tenei kupu i a Ihowa; i mea ia,
2 Thus saith the Lord, Sande in the court of the Lordes House, and speake vnto all the cities of Iudah, which come to worshippe in the Lords House, all the wordes that I commaund thee to speake vnto them: keepe not a worde backe,
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; E tu ki te marae o te whare o Ihowa, korerotia hoki ki nga pa katoa o Hura e haere mai ana ki te koropiko i roto i te whare o Ihowa, nga kupu katoa e whakahau nei ahau ki a koe kia korerotia ki a ratou; kaua tetahi kupu e kaiponuhia:
3 If so be they will hearken, and turne euery man from his euill way, that I may repent me of the plague, which I haue determined to bring vpon them, because of the wickednesse of their workes.
Tera pea ka rongo ratou, a ka tahuri ia tangata, ia tangata, i o ratou ara kino; kia puta ke ai toku whakaaro mo te kino, e mea nei ahau kia meatia ki a ratou mo te kino o a ratou mahi.
4 And thou shalt say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord, If ye will not heare me to walke in my Lawes, which I haue set before you,
A ka ki atu koe ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ki te kahore koutou e rongo ki ahau, ka haere i runga i taku ture kua hoatu nei e ahau ki to koutou aroaro,
5 And to heare ye wordes of my seruants the Prophets, whome I sent vnto you, both rising vp earely, and sending them, and will not obey them,
E rongo ki nga kupu a aku pononga, a nga poropiti e unga nei e ahau ki a koutou, maranga wawe ai i te ata a ka unga i a ratou, otiia kihai koutou i rongo;
6 Then will I make this House like Shiloh, and will make this citie a curse to all the nations of the earth.
Na ka meinga e ahau tenei whare kia rite ki Hiro, ka meinga hoki tenei pa hei kanga ma nga iwi katoa o te whenua.
7 So the Priestes, and the Prophets, and all the people heard Ieremiah speaking these wordes in the House of the Lord.
A ka rongo nga tohunga, nga poropiti, me te iwi katoa i a Heremaia, e korero ana i enei kupu i te whare o Ihowa.
8 Nowe when Ieremiah had made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speake vnto all the people, then the Priestes, and the prophets, and all the people tooke him, and saide, Thou shalt die the death.
Na, i te mutunga o te korero a Heremaia i nga mea katoa i whakahaua ai ia e Ihowa kei korerotia ki te iwi katoa, ka hopukia ia e nga tohunga, e nga poropiti, e te iwi katoa hoki, me te ki, Ko te mate kau mou.
9 Why hast thou prophecied in the Name of the Lord, saying, This House shall be like Shiloh, and this citie shalbe desolate without an inhabitant? and all the people were gathered against Ieremiah in the House of the Lord.
He aha koe i poropiti ai i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, i ki ai, Ka rite tenei whare ki Hiro, ka ururuatia tenei pa, te ai he tangata hei noho? Na, i te huihui te iwi katoa ki a Heremaia, ki te whare o Ihowa.
10 And when the princes of Iudah heard of these things, they came vp from the Kings house into the House of the Lord, and sate downe in the entrie of the new gate of the Lords House.
A, no te rongonga o nga rangatira o Hura ki enei mea, ka haere atu ratou i te whare o te kingi ki te whare o Ihowa, a noho ana i te kuwaha o te keti hou o te whare o Ihowa.
11 Then spake the Priestes, and the prophets vnto the princes, and to all the people, saying, This man is worthie to die: for he hath prophecied against this citie, as ye haue heard with your eares.
Katahi ka korero nga tohunga ratou ko nga poropiti ki nga rangatira, ki te iwi katoa hoki, ka mea, Ka tika te mate mo tenei tangata; kua poropiti hoki ia i te he mo tenei pa; kua rongo na hoki o koutou taringa.
12 Then spake Ieremiah vnto all the princes, and to al the people, saying, The Lord hath sent me to prophecie against this house and against this citie all the things that ye haue heard.
Katahi a Heremaia ka korero ki nga rangatira katoa, ki te iwi katoa, ka mea, Na Ihowa ahau i unga mai ki te poropiti mo tenei whare, mo tenei pa, i nga kupu katoa i rongo na koutou.
13 Therefore nowe amende your wayes and your workes, and heare the voyce of the Lord your God, that the Lord may repent him of the plague, that he hath pronounced against you.
Na reira whakatikatikaia o koutou ara, a koutou mahi, whakarongo hoki ki te reo o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua; a ka ripeneta a Ihowa ki te kino i korerotia e ia mo koutou.
14 As for me, beholde, I am in your hands: do with me as ye thinke good and right.
Tena ko ahau, kei roto ahau i to koutou ringa: ma koutou e mea ki ahau te mea e pai ana, e rite ana ki ta koutou titiro.
15 But knowe ye for certaine, that if ye put me to death, ye shall surely bring innocent blood vpon your selues, and vpon this citie, and vpon the inhabitants thereof: for of a trueth the Lord hath sent me vnto you, to speake all these words in your eares.
Otiia kia tino mohio koutou, ki te whakamatea ahau e koutou, e kawe ana koutou i te toto harakore ki runga i a koutou ano, ki runga ki tenei pa, ki ona tangata ano hoki: no te mea he pono, na Ihowa ahau i ngare atu ki a koutou ki te korero i ene i kupu katoa ki o koutou taringa.
16 Then saide the princes and all the people vnto the Priestes, and to the prophets, This man is not worthie to die: for he hath spoken vnto vs in the Name of the Lord our God.
Katahi nga rangatira ratou ko te iwi katoa ka ki atu ki nga tohunga ratou ko nga poropiti, Kahore he take e mate ai tenei tangata; kua korero mai hoki ia ki a tatou i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua.
17 Then rose vp certaine of the Elders of the lande, and spake to all the assemblie of the people, saying,
Na ka whakatika etahi o nga kaumatua o te whenua, ka korero ki te huihui katoa o te iwi, ka mea,
18 Michah the Morashite prophecied in the dayes of Hezekiah king of Iudah, and spake to al the people of Iudah, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Zion shall be plowed like a fielde, and Ierusalem shalbe an heape, and the mountaine of the House shalbe as the hie places of the forest.
I poropiti a Mika Morahati i nga ra o Hetekia kingi o Hura, i korero ki te iwi katoa o Hura, i mea, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano; Ka parautia a Hiona, ka rite ki te mara, a hei puranga a Hiruharama, ka rite hoki te maunga o te whare ki ng a wahi tiketike o te ngahere.
19 Did Hezekiah King of Iudah, and all Iudah put him to death? did he not feare ye Lord, and prayed before the Lord, and the Lord repented him of the plague, that he had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great euill against our soules.
I anga ranei a Hetekia kingi o Hura ratou ko Hura katoa, i mea rawa ki te whakamate i a ia? He teka ianei i wehi ia i a Ihowa, a inoi ana ki te mata o Ihowa, a ripeneta ana a Ihowa ki te kino i korerotia e ia mo ratou? Na ko tatou, ma konei tato u e mea ai i te kino nui ki o tatou nei wairua.
20 And there was also a man that prophecied in the Name of the Lord, one Vriiah the sonne of Shemaiah, of Kiriath-iarem, who prophecied against this citie, and against this lande, according to all the wordes of Ieremiah.
Na tera ano hoki tetahi tangata i poropiti i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, ko Uriia tama a Hemaia o Kiriata Tearimi; i poropiti ia i te he mo tenei pa, mo tenei whenua hoki, he penei ano me nga kupu katoa a Heremaia;
21 Nowe when Iehoiakim the King with all his men of power, and all the princes heard his wordes, the King sought to slay him. But when Vriiah heard it, he was afraide and fled, and went into Egypt.
A, no te rongonga o Kingi Iehoiakimi ratou ko ana metararahi, ko nga rangatira katoa, i ana kupu, ka whai te kingi kia whakamatea ia; no te rongonga ia o Uriia, ka wehi, ka rere, a haere ana ki Ihipa.
22 Then Iehoiakim the King sent men into Egypt, euen Elnathan the sonne of Achbor, and certaine with him into Egypt.
Na ka unga e Iehoiakimi he tangata ki Ihipa, ara a Erenatana tama a Aikaporo, ratou ko ona hoa ki Ihipa.
23 And they fet Vriiah out of Egypt, and brought him vnto Iehoiakim the King, who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead bodie into the graues of the children of the people.
Na tikina atu ana a Uriia e ratou i Ihipa, kawea mai ana ki a Kingi Iehoiakimi; patua iho e ia ki te hoari, maka ana e ia tona tinana ki nga tanumanga o nga tamariki a te iwi.
24 But the hande of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan was with Ieremiah that they shoulde not giue him into the hande of the people to put him to death.
Otiia i a Heremaia te ringa o Ahikama tama a Hapana, i kore ai ia e tukua ki te ringa o te iwi kia whakamatea.
