Jeremiah 49

1 Unto the children of Ammon thus saith the Lord, Hath Israel no sonnes? or hath he none heire? Why then hath their king possessed God? and his people dwelt in his cities?

Mo nga tamariki a Amona. Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Kahore ianei a Iharaira tamariki? kahore ana tangata hei whakarerenga iho mo ana taonga? na he aha a Kara i riro ai i a Marakomo, i noho ai tona iwi ki roto ki ona pa?

2 Therefore beholde the dayes come, sayeth the Lord, that I will cause a noyse of warre to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites, and it shall be a desolate heape, and her daughters shall be burnt with fire: then shall Israel possesse those that possessed him, sayeth the Lord.

Mo reira, tenei nga ra te haere mai nei, e ai ta Ihowa, e meinga ai e ahau te whakaoho o te riri kia rangona ki Rapa o nga tama a Amona; a ka waiho hei puranga kua ururuatia, ka tahuna ana tamahine ki te ahi: a ka riro i a Iharaira te hunga i a r atou nei ia i mua, e ai ta Ihowa.

3 Howle, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted: crie ye daughters of Rabbah: girde you with sackecloth: mourne and runne to and from by the hedges: for their King shall goe into captiuitie; and his Priestes, and his princes likewise.

Aue, e Hehepona, kua pahuatia hoki a Hai; e tangi, e nga tamahine a Rapa, whitikiria koutou ki te kakahu taratara: e tangi, ka omaoma noa i waenga i nga taiepa; no te mea ka riro a Marakomo i te whakarau, ona tohunga me ona rangatira ngatahi ano.

4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleis? thy valley floweth away, O rebellious daughter: she trusted in her treasures, saying, Who shall come vnto me?

He aha koe i whakamanamana ai ki nga raorao, ki tou raorao taheke, e te tamahine tahurihuri ke? e whakawhirinaki nei ki ona taonga, e mea nei, Ko wai e haere mai ki ahau?

5 Beholde, I will bring a feare vpon thee, sayth the Lord God of hostes, of all those that be about thee, and ye shalbe scattered euery man right foorth, and none shall gather him that fleeth.

Nana, ka takina e ahau he wehi ki runga ki a koe, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa o nga mano, he mea na te hunga katoa i tetahi taha ou, i tetahi taha; a ka aia rawatia atu koutou, tera, tera, ki waho, a kahore he kaitawhiu mai mo te mea i marara atu.

6 And afterward I will bring againe the captiuitie of the children of Ammon.

Hei muri ia ka whakahokia e ahau nga tama a Amona i te whakarau, e ai ta Ihowa.

7 To Edom thus sayeth the Lord of hostes: Is wisdome no more in Teman? is counsel perished from their children? is their wisdome vanished?

Mo Eroma. Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano: Kua kahore ranei te whakaaro nui i Temana? kua moti ianei te whakatakoto korero a te hunga mohio? kua memeha ranei to ratou whakaaro nui?

8 Flee, ye inhabitants of Dedan (they are turned backe, and haue consulted to dwell) for I haue brought the destruction of Esau vpon him, and the time of his visitation.

E rere koutou, tahuri atu, hei roro riro noho ai, e nga tangata o Rerana; no te mea ka takina mai e ahau te aitua o Ehau ki runga ki a ia, i te wa e tirotiro ai ahau i a ia.

9 If the grape gatherers come to thee, would they not leaue some grapes? if theeues come by night, they will destroy till they haue ynough.

Ki te tae atu he kaikohikohi karepe ki a koe, e kore ianei e mahue i a ratou etahi karepe hei hamunga? ki te mea he tahae i te po, e kore ianei ratou e tukituki kia makona rawa ratou?

10 For I haue discouered Esau: I haue vncouered his secrets, and he shall not be able to hide himselfe: his seede is wasted, and his brethren and his neighbours, and there shall be none to say,

Kua takoto kau ia i ahau a Ehau, kua hurahia e ahau ona wahi ngaro, te ahei ia te huna i a ia: kua oti ona uri te pahua, ona teina me ona hoa tata, a kua kore hoki ia.

11 Leaue thy fathers children, and I will preserue them aliue, and let thy widowes trust in me.

Waiho au pani, maku e whakaora; ko ou pouaru, kia whakawhirinaki ratou ki ahau.

12 For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, they whose iudgement was not to drinke of the cuppe, haue assuredly drunken, and art thou he that shall escape free? thou shalt not goe free, but thou shalt surely drinke of it.

Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa: Nana, ko te hunga i takoto nei te tikanga kia kaua e inu i te kapu, he pono ka inumia e ratou; a ko koe ranei te mea e kore rawa e whiua? e kore e kore ka whiua koe, engari ka tino inu nei koe.

13 For I haue sworne by my selfe, sayeth the Lord, that Bozrah shall be waste, and for a reproche, and a desolation, and a curse, and all the cities thereof shall be perpetuall desolations.

No te mea kua waiho ahau e ahau ano hei oati, e ai ta Ihowa, ka waiho a Potora hei miharotanga, hei ingoa kino, hei ururua, hei kanga ano hoki; a ka waiho ona pa katoa hei koraha ake ake.

14 I haue heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassadour is sent vnto the heathen, saying, Gather you together, and come against her, and rise vp to the battell.

Kua rangona e ahau he korero i a Ihowa, kua oti hoki te karere te tuku ki nga iwi, hei ki atu, Whakahuihui i a koutou, haere mai hoki ki a ia, a ka whakatika atu ki te whawhai.

15 For loe, I will make thee but small among the heathen, and despised among men.

No te mea, na, kua meinga koe e ahau kia iti i roto i nga tauiwi, he mea whakahawea i roto i nga tangata.

16 Thy feare, and ye pride of thine heart hath deceiued thee, thou that dwellest in the cleftes of the rocke, and keepest the height of ye hil: though thou shouldest make thy nest as hie as the eagle, I wil bring thee downe from thece, sayth the Lord.

Tena ko tou whakamataku, he whakakake no tou ngakau i pohewa ai koe, e koe e noho na i nga kapiti o te kamaka, e pupuri na i te wahi tiketike o te pukepuke: ahakoa hanga e koe tou ohanga kia rite ki to te ekara te tiketike, ka whakahokia iho koe e ahau i reira, e ai ta Ihowa.

17 Also Edom shall be desolate: euery one that goeth by it, shall be astonished, and shall hisse at all the plagues thereof,

A ka meinga a Eroma hei miharotanga: ko nga tangata katoa e tika ana na reira, ka miharo, ka hi mai ki ona whiunga katoa.

18 As in the ouerthrowe of Sodom, and of Gomorah, and the places thereof neere about, saieth the Lord: no man shall dwell there, neither shall the sonnes of men remaine in it.

Ka rite ki te hurihanga o Horoma, o Komora, o nga pa hoki i tata ki reira, e ai ta Ihowa, e kore tetahi tangata e whai kainga ki reira, e kore hoki tetahi tama a te tangata e noho ki reira.

19 Beholde, hee shall come vp like a lyon from the swelling of Iorden vnto the strong dwelling place: for I will make Israel to rest, euen I will make him to haste away from her, and who is a chosen man that I may appoynt against her? for who is like mee? and who will appoint me the time? and who is the shepheard that will stande before me?

Nana, ka rite ia ki te raiona e haere ake ana i te whakamanamana o Horano ki te nohoanga kaha: otiia ka meinga ohoreretia ai e ahau kia rere atu i a ia; a ko wai te mea e whiriwhiria e ahau ko ia hei rangatira mona? Ko wai hoki e rite ana ki aha u? ko wai hei whakarite he wa moku? ko wai ano tenei hepara hei tu ki toku aroaro?

20 Therefore heare the counsell of the Lord that hee hath deuised against Edom, and his purpose that hee hath conceiued against the inhabitants of Teman: surely the least of the flocke shall drawe them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.

Mo reira whakarongo ki te tikanga a Ihowa kua whakatakotoria e ia mo Eroma; ki ona whakaaro hoki, kua whakaaroa e ia mo nga tangata o Temana: He pono ka toia atu ratou, ara nga mea ririki o te kahui; he pono ka meinga e ia to ratou nohoanga, rat ou hoki kia ngaro.

21 The earth is mooued at the noyse of their fall: the crie of their voice is heard in the red Sea.

Oho ana te whenua i te haruru o to ratou hinganga: tera te hamama, rangona ana mai tona ngangau i te Moana Whero.

22 Behold, he shall come vp, and flie as the Egle, and spreade his wings ouer Bozrah, and at that day shall the heart of the strong men of Edome be as the heart of a woman in trauaile.

Nana, ka haere mai ia a ka rere ano he ekara, a ka roha atu ona parirau ki runga ki Potora: a ka rite te ngakau o nga marohirohi o Eroma i taua ra ki te ngakau o te wahine e whakamamae ana.

23 Vnto Damascus he sayeth, Hamath is confounded and Arpad, for they haue heard euill tidings, and they are faint hearted as one on the fearefull sea that can not rest.

Mo Ramahiku. Kua whakama a Hamata, raua ko Arapara; no te mea kua tae he rongo kino ki a ratou, harotu kau ratou: tera te tangi kei te moana; kahore e marino.

24 Damascus is discouraged, and turneth her selfe to flight and feare hath seased her: anguish and sorowes haue taken her as a woman in trauaile.

Kua ngoikore a Ramahiku, kua anga ki te rere, mau pu hoki i te wehi: kua rokohanga hoki ia e te raru, e te mamae, me te mea he wahine e whanau ana.

25 How is the glorious citie not reserued, the citie of my ioy?

Taukiri e! kihai i mahue te pa e whakamoemititia ana, te pa i koa ai ahau!

26 Therefore her yong men shall fall in her streetes, and all her men of warre shall be cut off in that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes.

Heoi hinga ana ana taitama i ona waharoa, moti pu nga tangata whawhai katoa i taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.

27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, which shall cosume the palaces of Benhadad.

Na ka tahuna ano e ahau he ahi i roto i te taiepa o Ramahiku, a ka pau i reira nga whare kingi o Peneharara.

28 Vnto Kedar, and to the kingdomes of Hazor, which Nebuchad-nezzar, king of Babel shall smite, thus sayeth the Lord, Arise, and goe vp vnto Kedar, and destroy the men of the East.

Mo Kerara, mo nga kingitanga hoki o Hatoro i patua nei e Nepukareha kingi o Papurona. Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Whakatika koutou, whakaekea a Kerara, pahuatia hoki nga tama o te rawhiti.

29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: yea, they shall take to themselues their curtaines and all their vessels, and their camels, and they shall crie vnto them, Feare is on euery side.

Ka tangohia e ratou o ratou teneti, a ratou hipi; a ka mauria atu e ratou ma ratou o ratou kakahu arai, a ratou oko katoa, me a ratou kamera: a tera ratou e karanga ki a ratou, He wehi kei nga taha katoa.

30 Flee, get you farre off (they haue consulted to dwell) O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the Lord: for Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel hath taken counsell against you, and hath deuised a purpose against you.

E rere koutou, haere atu ki tawhiti, nohoia a roto riro, e nga tangata o Hatoro, e ai ta Ihowa; kua takoto hoki te tikanga a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona mo koutou, kua whakaaroa hoki e ia he whakaaro mo koutou.

31 Arise, and get you vp vnto the welthy nation that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord, which haue neither gates nor barres, but dwel alone.

Whakatika, whakaekea te iwi e noho ana i te rangimarie, e noho kore wehi na, e ai ta Ihowa; kahore na o ratou keti, kahore he tutaki, e noho takitahi ana.

32 And their camels shall be a bootie, and the multitude of their cattel a spoile, and I will scatter them into all windes, and to the vtmost corners, and I will bring their destruction from al the sides thereof, sayeth the Lord.

A ka pahuatia a ratou kamera, a hei taonga parau hoki te tini o a ratou kararehe: a ka whakamararatia e ahau ki nga hau katoa te hunga i tapahia nga tapa o o ratou makawe; a ka takina mai e ahau te aitua mo ratou i nga taha katoa o ratou, e ai t a Ihowa.

33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and desolation for euer: there shall no man dwell there, nor the sonnes of men remaine in it.

A hei nohoanga a Hatoro mo nga kuri mohoao, hei ururua ake ake: e kore tetahi tangata e whai kainga ki reira, e kore ano hoki tetahi tama a te tangata e noho ki reira.

34 The woordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reigne of Zedekiah King of Iudah, saying,

Ko te kupu a Ihowa i puta mai ki a Heremaia poropiti mo Erama i te timatanga o te kingitanga o Terekia kingi o Hura; i mea ia,

35 Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will breake the bowe of Elam, euen the chiefe of their strength.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano: Nana, ka whatiia e ahau te kopere a Erama, te mea nui rawa o to ratou kaha.

36 And vpon Elam I will bring the foure windes from the foure quarters of heauen, and will scatter them towardes all these windes, and there shall bee no nation, whither the fugitiues of Elam shall not come.

A ka takina atu e ahau nga hau e wha i nga pito e wha o te rangi ki runga ki Erama, a ka titaritaria atu ratou e ahau ki aua hau katoa; kahore hoki he iwi e kore te taea atu e te hunga o Erama ka peia atu nei.

37 For I will cause Elam to be afraied before their enemies, and before them that seeke their liues, and will bring vpon them a plague, euen the indignation of my wrath, saieth the Lord, and I wil sende the sworde after them till I haue consumed them.

A ka meinga e ahau a Erama kia wehi i te aroaro o ona hoariri, i te aroaro hoki o te hunga e whai ana kia whakamatea ratou: ka takina hoki e ahau he kino ki runga ki a ratou, ko toku riri e mura ana, e ai ta Ihowa; a ka unga e ahau te hoari ki m uri i a ratou, a kia poto ra ano ratou i ahau:

38 And I wil set my throne in Elam, and I wil destroy both the King and the princes from thence, saith the Lord:

Na ka whakaturia e ahau toku torona ki Erama, a ka whakakahoretia atu to reira kingi, ratou ko nga rangatira, e ai ta Ihowa.

39 but in the latter daies I wil bring againe the captiuitie of Elam, sayeth the Lord.

Otiia hei nga ra whakamutunga ka whakahokia e ahau a Erama i te whakarau, e ai ta Ihowa.
