< Jeremias 49 >
1 Then came all the leaders of the host, and Joanan, and Azarias the son of Maasaeas, and all the people great and small,
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 to Jeremias the prophet, and said to him, Let now our supplication come before your face, and pray you to the Lord your God for this remnant; for we are left few out of many, as your eyes see.
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 And let the Lord your God declare to us the way wherein we should walk, and the thing which we should do.
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 And Jeremias said to them, I have heard [you]; behold, I will pray for you to the Lord our God, according to your words; and it shall come to pass, [that] whatever word the Lord God shall answer, I will declare [it] to you; I will not hide anything from you.
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 And they said to Jeremias, Let the Lord be between us for a just and faithful witness, if we do not according to every word which the Lord shall send to us.
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 whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil, we will listen to the voice of the Lord our God, to whom we send you; that it may be well with us, because we shall listen to the voice of the Lord our God.
Hei muri ia ka whakahokia e ahau nga tama a Amona i te whakarau, e ai ta Ihowa.
7 And it came to pass after ten days, [that] the word of the Lord came to Jeremias.
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 And he called Joanan, and the leaders of the host, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
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 and he said to them, Thus says the Lord;
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 If you will indeed dwell in this land, I will build you, and will not pull [you] down, but will plant you, and in no wise pluck you up: for I have ceased from the calamities which I brought upon you.
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 Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid; be not afraid of him, says the Lord: for I am with you, to deliver you, and save you out of their hand.
Waiho au pani, maku e whakaora; ko ou pouaru, kia whakawhirinaki ratou ki ahau.
12 And I will grant you mercy, and pity you, and will restore you to your land.
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 But if you say, We will not dwell in this land, that we may not listen to the voice of the Lord;
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 for we will go into the land of Egypt, and we shall see no war, and shall not hear the sound of a trumpet, and we shall not hunger for bread; and there we will dwell:
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 then hear the word of the Lord; thus says the Lord;
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 If you set your face toward Egypt, and go in there to dwell; then it shall be, [that] the sword which you fear shall find you in the land of Egypt, and the famine to which you have regard, shall overtake you, [coming] after you in Egypt; and there you shall die.
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 And all the men, and all the strangers who have set their face toward the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall be consumed by the sword, and by the famine: and there shall not one of them escape from the evils which I bring upon them.
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 For thus says the Lord; As my wrath has dropped upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so shall my wrath drop upon you, when you have entered into Egypt: and you shall be a desolation, and under the power of others, and a curse and a reproach: and you shall no more see this place.
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 [These are the words] which the Lord has spoken concerning you the remnant of Juda; Enter you not into Egypt: and now know you for a certainty,
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 that you have wrought wickedness in your hearts, when you sent me, saying, Pray you for us to the Lord; and according to all that the Lord shall speak to you we will do.
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 And you have not listened to the voice of the Lord, with which he sent me to you.
Oho ana te whenua i te haruru o to ratou hinganga: tera te hamama, rangona ana mai tona ngangau i te Moana Whero.
22 Now therefore you shall perish by sword and by famine, in the place which you desire to go into to dwell there.
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.
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.
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.
Taukiri e! kihai i mahue te pa e whakamoemititia ana, te pa i koa ai ahau!
Heoi hinga ana ana taitama i ona waharoa, moti pu nga tangata whawhai katoa i taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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:
Na ka whakaturia e ahau toku torona ki Erama, a ka whakakahoretia atu to reira kingi, ratou ko nga rangatira, e ai ta Ihowa.
Otiia hei nga ra whakamutunga ka whakahokia e ahau a Erama i te whakarau, e ai ta Ihowa.
