Daniel 9
1 In the first year of Darius the son of Achashverosh, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,
I te tuatahi o nga tau o Tariuha tama a Ahahueruha, no nga uri o nga Meri, i kingi nei ia ki te kingitanga o nga Karari;
2 In the first year of his reign, I Daniel searched in the books for understanding concerning the number of the years whereof the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would let pass full seventy years over the ruins of Jerusalem.
I tona tau tuatahi i kingi ai, ka kitea e ahau, e Raniera, ki nga pukapuka te maha o nga tau i puta mai ai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia poropiti, hei whakatutukitanga i te ururua o Hiruharama, ara ka tae ki te whitu tekau tau.
3 And I directed my face unto the Lord God, to ask by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and in sackcloth, and ashes.
Na ka anga toku mata ki te Ariki, ki te Atua; rapua ana e ahau i runga i te karakia, i te inoi, i te nohopuku, i te kakahu taratara, i te pungarehu.
4 And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and terrible God, who keepeth the covenant and kindness to those that love him, and to those that keep his commandments:
Na ka inoi atu ahau ki te Ariki, ki toku Atua, ka whaki, ka mea, E te Ariki, e te Atua nui, e te atua whakamataku, e pupuri nei i te kawenata, i te atawhai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia, e pupuri ana i ana whakahau;
5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, and have departed from thy commandments and from thy ordinances;
Kua hara matou, kua poka ke, kua mahi i te kino, kua whakakeke hoki, i a matou i tahuri ke nei i au whakahau, i au tikanga.
6 Nor have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
Kihai ano matou i whakarongo ki au pononga, ki nga poropiti i korero nei i runga i tou ingoa ki o matou kingi, ki o matou rangatira, ki o matou matua, ki te iwi katoa ano o te whenua.
7 Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us belongeth the shame of face, as it is this day, —to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, those that are near, and those that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass which they have trespassed against thee.
Kei a koe, e te Ariki, te tika; kei a matou ia te whakama o te mata, koia ano tenei inaianei; kei nga tangata ano o Hura, kei nga tangata o Hiruharama, kei a Iharaira katoa, kei nga mea e tata ana, kei nga mea i tawhiti, i nga whenua katoa i peia atu ai ratou e koe, mo to ratou he i he ai ratou ki a koe.
8 O Lord, to us belongeth the shame of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers; because we have sinned against thee.
E te Ariki, kei a matou nei ko te whakama o te mata, kei o matou kingi hoki, kei o matou rangatira, kei o matou matua hoki, no te mea i hara matou ki a koe.
9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and pardonings; for we have rebelled against him;
Na te Ariki, na to matou Atua, nga mahi tohu me nga murunga hara, ko matou ia kua whakakeke ki a ia;
10 And we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through means of his servants the prophets.
Kihai ano i whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowa, o to matou Atua, kihai i haere i ana ture i whakatakotoria e ia, ara e ana pononga, e nga poropiti, ki to matou aroaro.
11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have departed so as not to obey thy voice: therefore was poured out over us the curse, with the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God; because we had sinned against him.
Ae ra, kua takahia e Iharaira katoa tau ture, kua whakarerea e ratou, kia kore ai ratou e rongo ki tou reo; koia i ringihia ai te kanga ki runga ki a matou, me te oati i tuhituhia ki te ture a Mohi pononga a te Atua; kua hara hoki matou ki a ia.
12 And he hath accomplished his words, which he had spoken concerning us, and concerning our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil, which was never done under the whole heaven as it hath been done in Jerusalem.
Na kua pumau i a ia ana kupu i korerotia e ia mo matou, mo o matou kaiwhakawa i whakarite nei i o matou whakawa, na te kino nui hoki kua kawea mai nei e ia ki runga ki a matou: kahore hoki he rite mo te mea kua meatia nei ki Hiruharama i raro i te rangi katoa.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses; all this evil came over us: yet offered we not any entreaty before the Lord our God, to return from our iniquities, and to become intelligent in thy truth.
Ka rite ki te mea i tuhituhia ki te ture a Mohi tenei kino katoa kua tae mai nei ki a matou: heoi kahore a matou inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to matou Atua, mo matou kia tahuri atu i o matou kino, kia matau hoki ki tou pono.
14 Therefore did the Lord watch over the evil, and he brought it upon us; for the Lord our God is righteous because of all his deeds which he hath done; but we have not obeyed his voice.
Na reira te kino i tirotirohia mai ai e Ihowa, a kawea mai ana e ia ki runga ki a matou; tika tonu hoki ta Ihowa, ta to matou Atua, i ana mahi katoa e mahia ana e ia, a kihai matou i whakarongo ki tona reo.
15 And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thyself a [great] name, as it is this day: we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
Na aianei, e te Ariki, e to matou Atua, nau nei i kawe mai tau iwi i te whenua o Ihipa i runga i te ringa kaha, a mahia ana e koe he ingoa mou, penei ano me tenei inaianei; hara ana matou, mahi ana i te kino.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thy anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; because through our sins, and through the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all who are round about us.
E te Ariki, kia rite ki au mahi tika katoa, whakatahuritia atu tou riri, tou weriweri, i tau pa, i Hiruharama, i tou maunga tapu: he hara nei hoki no matou, he kino no o matou matua i ingoa kino ai a Hiruharama me tau iwi ki te hunga katoa i tet ahi taha o matou, i tetahi taha.
17 And now listen, O our God, to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.
Na whakarongo aianei, e to matou Atua, ki te inoi a tau pononga, ki ana tangi, kia marama ano tou mata ki tou wahi tapu kua ururua nei, me whakaaro ki te Ariki.
18 Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear; open thy eyes, and look on our desolations, and the city whereupon thy name is called: for not [relying] on our acts of righteousness do we present humbly our supplications before thee, but [relying] on thy great mercies.
Kia anga mai, e toku Atua, tou taringa, whakarongo hoki, titiro mai hoki ou kanohi, kia kitea ai e koe o matou matenga, me te pa ano kua huaina nei tou ingoa mo reira: ehara hoki i te mea he tika no matou i tukua atu ai e matou a matou inoi ki t ou aroaro, engari he nui no au mahi tohu.
19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do it; delay it not; for thy own sake, O my God; for thy name is called upon thy city and upon thy people.
Whakarongo, e te Ariki; e te Ariki, murua te he; e te Ariki, whakarongo mai, e mahi; kaua e whakaroa; kia mahara ano ki a koe, e toku Atua, kua oti hoki tou ingoa te whakahua mo tau pa, mo tau iwi.
20 And while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication humbly before the Lord my God because of the holy mountain of my God:
Na, i ahau e korero ana, e karakia ana, e whaki ana i toku hara, i te hara ano o toku iwi, o Iharaira, e tuku ana i taku inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o toku Atua, mo te maunga tapu o toku Atua;
21 Yea, while I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came, flying swiftly, near me about the time of the evening oblation.
Ae ra, i ahau e korero ana, e karakia ana, na ko Kapariera, ko te tangata i kitea e ahau i te whakakitenga i te timatanga, ko tona rere he mea whakahohoro, kua pa mai ki ahau i te wa o to te ahiahi whakahere.
22 And he gave me understanding, and spoke with me, and said, O Daniel, now am I come forth to make thee intelligent with understanding.
Na ka ako ia i ahau, ka korero ki ahau, ka mea, E Raniera, kua puta mai nei ahau kia mohio ai koe, kia matau ai.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to tell it; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and have understanding of the appearance.
I te timatanga o au inoi i puta te kupu, a kua tae mai ahau ki te whakaatu; e arohaina nuitia ana hoki koe, na kia mohio koe ki te mea, whakaaroa ano te kite.
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close up the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy thing.
E whitu tekau nga wiki kua oti te whakarite mo tou iwi, mo tou pa tapu hoki, e whakaotia ai te poka ke, e whakamutua ai nga hara, e oti ai te whakamarie mo te kino, e kawea mai ai te tika mau tonu, e hiritia ai te kite, me te poropititanga, e wh akawahia ai te Tapu Rawa.
25 Know therefore and comprehend, that from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the anointed the prince will be seven weeks: and during sixty and two weeks will it be again built with streets and ditches [around it], even in the pressure of the times.
Na kia mohio, a kia marama hoki, e whitu nga wiki o te putanga o te kupu, kia whakahoutia, kia hanga a Hiruharama a tae noa ki te mea i whakawahia, ki te rangatira: a, e ono tekau ma rua nga wiki, ka oti ano te hanga, me te waharoa, me te awaker i, ahakoa i roto i nga wa raruraru.
26 And after the sixty and two weeks will an anointed one be cut off without a successor to follow him: and the city and the sanctuary will the people of the prince that is coming destroy; but his end will come in a violent overthrow; but until the end of the war devastations are decreed [against it].
A, ka taka aua wiki e ono tekau ma rua, ka hatepea atu te mea i whakawahia, a kahore he mea mana; a ka whakangaromia te pa me te wahi tapu e te iwi o te rangatira ka haere mai nei; a he waipuke kei tona mutunga, a he whawhai taea noatia te mutun ga; kua takoto hoki nga whakangaromanga.
27 And he will make a strong covenant with the many for one week; and in the half of the week will he cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and this because of the prevalence of the abominations which bringeth devastation, and until destruction and what is decreed shall be poured out upon the waster.
A ka hanga e ia he kawenata pumau ki etahi tokomaha, kotahi te wiki; ka tae ki te hawhe o te wiki e meinga ana e ia kia mutu te patunga tapu me te whakahere; na ka haere mai tetahi i runga i te parirau o nga mea whakarihariha, mana e whakaururua; a ka ringihia he riri ki runga ki te kaiwhakangaro, a taea rawatia ano te whakaotinga, he mea kua oti te whakarite.
