Micah 4
1 But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of YHWH shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
Otiia tenei ake kei nga ra whakamutunga ka whakapumautia te maunga i to Ihowa whare ki te tihi o nga maunga, a ka hikitia ki runga ake i nga pukepuke, a ka rere nga iwi ki reira.
2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of YHWH, and to the house of the Elohim of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of YHWH from Jerusalem.
A he maha nga iwi e haere, e mea, Haere mai koutou, tatou ka haere ki runga ki te maunga o Ihowa, ki te whare o te Atua o Hakopa, a mana tatou e whakaako ki ana ara, ka haere hoki tatou i ana huarahi; no te mea ka puta mai te ture i Hiona, te kup u hoki a Ihowa i Hiruharama.
3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more
A ka whakarite whakawa ia i waenganui i nga iwi maha, ka riria hoki e ia te he o nga iwi kaha i tawhiti; a 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, a heoi a no ta ratou ako ki te whawhai.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of YHWH of hosts hath spoken it.
Engari ka noho ratou, ia tangata, ia tangata, i raro i tana waina, i raro i tana piki; a kahore he tangata hei whakawehi i a ratou: na te mangai hoki o Ihowa o nga mano te korero.
5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his elohim, and we will walk in the name of YHWH our Elohim for ever and ever.
Ka haere hoki nga iwi katoa, ia tangata, ia tangata, i runga i te ingoa o tona atua, a ka haere tatou i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua a ake ake.
6 In that day, saith YHWH, will I assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
A taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa, ka huihuia e ahau te wahine e totitoti ana, ka whakaminea te wahine i peia atu, me ia ano i whakatupuria kinotia e ahau;
7 And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and YHWH shall reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.
A ka meinga e ahau te wahine e totitoti ana hei morehu, me te wahine i maka atu ki tawhiti hei iwi kaha: a ka kingi a Ihowa ki a ratou ki Maunga Hiona aianei a ake tonu atu.
8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
Na ka tae mai ki a koe, e koe, e te pourewa o te kahui, e te taumaihi o te tamahine a Hiona; ae ra, ka tae mai ki a koe te kingitanga o mua ra, te kingitanga o te tamahine a Hiruharama.
9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? is there no king in thee? is thy counseller perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail.
Na, he aha koe i hamama ai? Kahore ianei he kingi i roto i a koe, kua ngaro ranei tou kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro, i mau pu ai koe i te mamae me te mea he wahine e whanau ana?
10 Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go even to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there YHWH shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
Whakamamae, e ngana kia puta ki waho, e te tamahine a Hiona, kia rite ki te wahine e whanau ana: no te mea ko aianei koe puta ai i roto i te pa, a ka noho ki te parae, a ka tae ki Papurona ra ano; hei reira koe ka whakaorangia; hei reira a Ihowa hoko ai i a koe i te ringa o ou hoariri.
11 Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
Na, tona maha o nga iwi kua huihui ki te whawhai ki a koe, e mea ana, Tukua ia kia whakapokea, kia kite atu to tatou kanohi i tana koronga i runga i Hiona.
12 But they know not the thoughts of YHWH, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.
Otira kahore ratou e matau ki nga whakaaro o Ihowa, kahore hoki e mohio ki tana i whakatakoto ai: kua kohikohia hoki ratou e ia ano he paihere ki te patunga witi.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain unto YHWH, and their substance unto the Master of the whole earth.
Whakatika ki te patu witi, e te tamahine a Hiona: ka meinga hoki e ahau tou haona hei rino, ka meinga hoki e ahau ou paua hei parahi: a he maha nga iwi e patupatua e koe a mongamonga noa: a mau e whakatapu ma Ihowa nga mea i apohia mai e ratou, o ratou rawa ma te Ariki o te whenua katoa.
