< Jeremiah 32 >
1 The worde that came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, in the tenth yere of Zedekiah king of Iudah, which was the eightenth yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar.
Ko te kupu i puta mai ki a Heremaia, he mea na Ihowa, i te tekau o nga tau o Terekia kingi o Hura, ara i te tekau ma waru o nga tau o Nepukareha.
2 For then the King of Babels hoste besieged Ierusalem: And Ieremiah the Prophet was shutte vp in the court of the prison, which was in the King of Iudahs house.
Na i taua wa e whakapaea ana a Hiruharama e te taua a te kingi o Papurona; a ko Heremaia poropiti kua oti te tutaki ki roto ki te marae o te whare herehere i te whare o te kingi o Hura.
3 For Zedekiah King of Iudah had shut him vp, saying, Wherefore doest thou prophesie, and say, Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will giue this citie into the handes of the King of Babel, and he shall take it?
Na Terekia hoki, na te kingi o Hura ia i tutaki; i mea tera, He aha koe i poropiti ai, i ki ai, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka hoatu e ahau tenei pa ki te ringa o te kingi o Papurona, a ka horo i a ia;
4 And Zedekiah the King of Iudah shall not escape out of the hande of the Caldeans, but shall surely be deliuered into the handes of the King of Babel, and shall speake with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall beholde his face,
A ko Terekia kingi o Hura, e kore e mawhiti i te ringa o nga Karari; engari ka tukua putia ia ki te ringa o te kingi o Papurona, a ka korero ia ki a ia he mangai ki te mangai, a e kite hoki ona kanohi i ona kanohi;
5 And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babel, and there shall he be, vntil I visit him, saith ye Lord: though ye fight with the Caldeans, ye shall not prosper.
A ka arahina e ia a Terekia ki Papurona, a ki reira ia noho ai, kia tae atu ra ano ahau ki te tirotiro i a ia, e ai ta Ihowa; ahakoa whawhai koutou ki nga Karari, e kore e taea e koutou?
6 And Ieremiah said, The word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Na ka mea a Heremaia, I puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea ia,
7 Beholde, Hanameel, the sonne of Shallum thine vncle, shall come vnto thee and say, Bye vnto thee my fielde, that is in Anathoth: for the title by kindred appertaineth vnto thee to bye it.
Nana, tera e tae mai ki a koe a Hanameere tama a Harumu, a tou matua keke, a ka mea, Mau e hoko taku mara i Anatoto; kei a koe na hoki te tikanga o te utu whakahoki.
8 So Hanameel, mine vncles sonne, came to mee in the court of the prison, according to the word of the Lord, and said vnto me, Bye my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the countrey of Beniamin: for the right of the possession is thine, and the purchase belongeth vnto thee: bye it for thee. Then I knewe that this was the worde of the Lord.
Na ka haere mai ki ahau a Hanameere tama a toku matua keke, ka pera me ta Ihowa i ki ai, ki te marae o te whare herehere, a ka mea ki ahau, Tena koa, hokona taku mara i Anatoto, i te whenua o Pineamine; kei a koe hoki te tikanga o taua wahi, mau ano te utu e hoki ai; hokona mau. Katahi ahau ka mohio, he kupu tenei na Ihowa.
9 And I bought the field of Hanameel, mine vncles sonne, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the siluer, euen seuen shekels, and tenne pieces of siluer.
Na ka hokona e ahau te mara a Hanameere tama a toku matua, keke, tera i Anatoto, a paunatia atu ana e ahau te moni mana, ara tekau ma whitu nga hekere hiriwa.
10 And I writ it in the booke and signed it, and tooke witnesses, and weighed him the siluer in the balances.
Na ka tuhituhi ahau ki te pukapuka, hiri rawa, karangatia ana nga kaititiro, a paunatia atu ana e ahau te moni mana ki te pauna.
11 So I tooke the booke of the possession, being sealed according to the Lawe, and custome, with the booke that was open,
Na ka mau ahau ki te pukapuka o te hoko, ki te mea hiri i rite nei ki ta te ture, ki ta nga tikanga, a ki te mea hirikore:
12 And I gaue the booke of the possession vnto Baruch the sonne of Neriah, the sonne of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine vncles sonne, and in the presence of the witnesses, written in the booke of the possession, before al the Iewes that sate in the court of the prison.
A hoatu ana e ahau te pukapuka o te hoko ki a Paruku tama a Neria, tama a Maaheia i te tirohanga ano a Hanameere tama a toku matua keke, i te tirohanga hoki a nga kaititiro i tuhituhia ai te pukapuka o te hoko, i te tirohanga ano hoki a nga Hura i katoa e noho ana i te marae o te whare herehere.
13 And I charged Baruch before them, saying,
Na ka whakahau ahau ki a Paruku i o ratou aroaro, i mea atu ahau,
14 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Take the writings, euen this booke of the possession, both that is sealed, and this booke that is open, and put them in an earthen vessell, that they may continue a long time.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: Maua atu enei pukapuka, tenei pukapuka o te hoko, te mea hiri me tenei pukapuka hirikore, whaowhina ki te oko oneone; kia maha ai nga ra e mau ai.
15 For the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel saith thus, Houses and fieldes, and vineyardes shall be possessed againe in this land.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira, Tera nga whare, nga mara, me nga mara waina ka hokohokona ano a muri nei ki tenei whenua.
16 Now when I had deliuered the booke of the possession vnto Baruch, the sonne of Neriah, I prayed vnto the Lord, saying,
Na, i muri i taku hoatutanga i te pukapuka o te hoko ki a Paruku tama a Neria, ka inoi ahau ki a Ihowa, ka mea,
17 Ah Lord God, beholde, thou hast made the heauen and the earth by thy great power, and by thy stretched out arme, and there is nothing hard vnto thee.
Aue, e te Ariki, e Ihowa, nana, kua hanga e koe te rangi me te whenua, na tou kaha nui, na tou ringa maro; kahore he mea e pakeke ki a koe:
18 Thou shewest mercie vnto thousands, and recompensest the iniquitie of the fathers into the bosome of their children after them: O God the great and mightie, whose Name is ye Lord of hostes,
He mahi aroha nei tau ki nga mano, e utua ana e koe te kino o nga matua ki roto ki te uma o a ratou tamariki i muri i a ratou: ko tona ingoa ko te Atua nui, ko te Atua marohirohi, ko Ihowa o nga mano:
19 Great in counsell, and mightie in worke, (for thine eyes are open vpon all the wayes of ye sonnes of men, to giue to euery one according to his wayes, and according to the fruite of his workes)
He nui ki te whakaaro, he kaha ki te mahi: e tuwhera ana hoki ona kanohi ki nga ara katoa o nga tama a te tangata; he mea kia rite ai ki tona ara ake, ki nga hua o ana mahi, nga mea e hoatu ai ki tenei, ki tenei:
20 Which hast set signes and wonders in the land of Egypt vnto this day, and in Israel, and among all men, and hast made thee a Name, as appeareth this day,
Nau nei i homai nga tohu me nga mea whakamiharo ki te whenua o Ihipa, a taea noatia tenei ra, i roto i a Iharaira, i era atu hoki; a meinga ana e koe he ingoa mou, penei i tenei inaianei;
21 And hast brought thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signes, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, with a stretched out arme, and with great terrour,
Nau nei hoki i kawe mai tau iwi, a Iharaira, i te whenua o Ihipa i runga i nga tohu, i nga mea whakamiharo, i te ringa kaha, i te takakau maro hoki, i te wehi nui;
22 And hast giuen them this land, which thou diddest sweare to their fathers to giue them, euen a land, that floweth with milke and hony,
A homai ana e koe ki a ratou tenei whenua i oati ai koe ki o ratou matua ka homai ki a ratou, he whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi;
23 And they came in, and possessed it, but they obeyed not thy voyce, neither walked in thy Law: all that thou commaundedst them to doe, they haue not done: therefore thou hast caused this whole plague to come vpon them.
Na haere mai ana ratou, a riro ana a konei i a ratou; heoi kihai ratou i rongo ki tou reo, kihai hoki i haere i runga i tau ture; kihai rawa i mahia e ratou tetahi o nga mea i whakahaua e koe ki a ratou kia mahia: koia i meinga ai e koe tenei ki no katoa kia pa ki a ratou.
24 Beholde, the mounts, they are come into the citie to take it, and the citie is giuen into the hande of the Caldeans, that fight against it by meanes of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence, and what thou hast spoken, is come to passe, and beholde, thou seest it.
Nana, nga puke, kua tae mai ratou ki te pa, kia horo ai; a ka hoatu te pa ki te ringa o nga Karari e whawhai nei ki konei, na te hoari hoki, na te hemokai, na te mate uruta: a, ko tau i korero ra, kua rite; nana, e kite nei koe.
25 And thou hast sayd vnto me, O Lord God, Bye vnto thee the fielde for siluer, and take witnesses: for the citie shall be giuen into the hand of the Caldeans.
Heoi kua mea mai na koe, e te Ariki, e Ihowa, ki ahau, Hokona te mara mau ki te moni, whakaturia ano nga kaititiro; kahore ia, kua tukua te pa ki te ringa o nga Karari.
26 Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Ieremiah, saying,
Katahi ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia; i mea ia,
27 Beholde, I am the LORD GOD of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Nana, ko Ihowa ahau, ko te Atua o nga kikokiko katoa: tera ranei tetahi mea e pakeke rawa ki ahau?
28 Therefore thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I wil giue this citie into the hand of the Caldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar, King of Babel, and he shall take it.
Heoi ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka hoatu e ahau tenei pa ki te ringa o nga Karari, ki te ringa o Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, a ka horo i a ia:
29 And the Caldeans shall come and fight against this citie, and set fire on this citie and burne it, with the houses, vpon whose rouses they haue offred incense vnto Baal, and powred drinke offrings vnto other gods, to prouoke me vnto anger.
A ka haere mai nga Karari e whawhai nei ki tenei pa, ka tahu i tenei pa ki te ahi, ka wera hoki i a ratou, me nga whare i tahu whakakakara ai ratou i runga i nga tuanui ki a Paara, i ringihia ai hoki nga ringihanga ki nga atua ke, hei whakapatar itari i ahau.
30 For the children of Israel, and the children of Iudah haue surely done euill before me from their youth: for the children of Israel haue surely prouoked me to anger with the workes of their hands, saith the Lord.
No te mea ko nga tamariki a Iharaira ratou ko nga tamariki a Hura, he kino kau ta ratou i mahi ai i taku tirohanga, no to ratou tamarikitanga ake ano: he whakapataritari kau hoki ta nga tamariki a Iharaira i ahau ki te mahi a o ratou ringa, e ai ta Ihowa.
31 Therefore this citie hath bene vnto me as a prouocation of mine anger, and of my wrath, from the day, that they built it, euen vnto this day, that I should remoue it out of my sight,
Ko te ahau hoki o tenei pa ki ahau he mea whakaoho o toku riri, i toku weriweri, no te ra i hanga ai e ratou a tae noa mai ki tenei ra; kia nekehia atu ra ano e ahau i toku aroaro;
32 Because of all the euill of the children of Israel, and of the children of Iudah, which they haue done to prouoke mee to anger, euen they, their Kings, their Princes, their Priests, and their Prophets, and the men of Iudah, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
Mo te kino katoa a nga tamariki a Iharaira ratou ko nga tamariki a Hura, i mahia nei e ratou hei whakapataritari i ahau, e ratou, e o ratou kingi, e o ratou rangatira, e o ratou tohunga, e o ratou poropiti, e nga tangata o Hura, e nga tangata ho ki o Hiruharama.
33 And they haue turned vnto me the backe and not the face: though I taught them rising vp earely, and instructing them, yet they were not obedient to receiue doctrine,
A kua parea mai e ratou te kohamo, kahore te kanohi ki ahau: a, ahakoa naku ratou i whakaako, moata ai i te ata me te ako i a ratou, kihai ratou i rongo, i manako ki te ako.
34 But they set their abominations in ye house (whereupon my Name was called) to defile it,
Heoi whakaturia ana e ratou a ratou mea whakarihariha ki te whare i huaina nei toku ingoa mo reira, whakapokea iho.
35 And they built the hie places of Baal, which are in the valley of Ben-hinnom, to cause their sonnes and their daughters to passe through the fire vnto Molech, which I commanded them not, neither came it into my minde, that they should doe such abomination, to cause Iudah to sinne.
A hanga ana e ratou nga wahi tiketike o Paara, era i te raorao o te tama a Hinomo, kia meinga ai a ratou tama, me a ratou tamahine, kia tika i roto i te ahi ki a Moreke; he mea kihai i whakahaua e ahau, kihai hoki i puta ake i toku ngakau, kia m ahia e ratou tenei mea whakarihariha, e hara ai a Hura.
36 And nowe therefore, thus hath the Lord God of Israel spoken, concerning this citie, whereof ye say, It shalbe deliuered into the hand of the King of Babel by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence,
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei inaianei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira mo tenei pa, e ki na koutou, Ka tukua ki te ringa o te kingi o Papurona, ma te hoari, ma te hemokai, ma te mate uruta;
37 Beholde, I will gather them out of all countreys, wherein I haue scattered them in mine anger, and in my wrath, and in great indignation, and I wil bring them againe vnto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely.
Nana, ka kohikohia mai ratou e ahau i nga whenua katoa i peia atu nei ratou e ahau ki reira, i toku riri, i toku weriweri, i te aritarita nui; ka whakahokia mai ano ratou e ahau ki tenei wahi, a ka meinga kia noho humarie;
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
A ko ratou hei iwi maku, ko ahau hoki hei Atua mo ratou.
39 And I wil giue them one heart and one way that they may feare me for euer for ye wealth of them, and of their children after them.
A ka hoatu e ahau he ngakau kotahi ki a ratou, he ara kotahi, kia wehi ai ratou i ahau a ake ake; hei pai mo ratou, mo a ratou tamariki hoki i muri i a ratou.
40 And I wil make an euerlasting couenant with them, that I wil neuer turne away from them to doe them good, but I wil put my feare in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
Ka whakaritea ano e ahau he kawenata mau tonu ki a ratou, he mea e kore e whakatahuritia atu e ahau i a ratou, kia mahia he pai ki a ratou; a ka hoatu e ahau toku wehi ki o ratou ngakau, kei whakarere ratou i ahau.
41 Yea, I wil delite in them to do them good, and I wil plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart, and with all my soule.
Ae ra, ka koa ahau ki a ratou hei mea i te pai ki a ratou, a he pono ka whakapaua toku ngakau, ka whakapaua hoki toku wairua ki te whakato i a ratou ki tenei whenua i runga i te pono.
42 For thus sayth the Lord, Like as I haue brought all this great plague vpon this people, so wil I bring vpon them all the good that I haue promised them.
No te mea ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ka pera i taku kawenga i tenei kino nui katoa ki runga ki tenei iwi, waihoki ka kawea e ahau ki runga ki a ratou te pai katoa i korerotia e ahau mo ratou.
43 And the fields shalbe possessed in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast, and shalbe giuen into the hand of the Caldeans.
Ka hokohokona ano he mara ki tenei whenua, e ki na koutou mo reira, He ururua, te ai he tangata, he kararehe ranei; kua hoatu ki te ringa o nga Karari.
44 Men shall buy fields for siluer, and make writings and seale them, and take witnesses in the land of Beniamin, and round about Ierusalem, and in the cities of Iudah, and in the cities of the mountaines, and in the cities of the plaine, and in the cities of the South: for I wil cause their captiuitie to returne, saith the Lord.
Ka hokona e te tangata he mara ki te moni, ka tuhituhia ano he pukapuka, ka hiritia, ka whakaturia nga kaititiro, i te whenua o Pineamine, i nga taha o Hiruharama, i nga pa hoki o Hura, i nga pa o te whenua pukepuke, i nga pa o nga raorao, i nga pa hoki o te tonga: no te mea ka whakahokia mai ratou e ahau i te whakarau, e ai ta Ihowa.
