Isaiah 33
1 Woe, spoiler! And you not spoiled, And treacherous! And they did not deal treacherously with you, When you finish, O spoiler, you are spoiled, When you finish dealing treacherously, They deal treacherously with you.
Aue te mate mou e pahua nei, a kihai koe i pahuatia; e tinihanga nei, a kihai ano koe i tinihangatia! kia mutu tau pahua, ka pahuatia ano koe: kia mutu tau tinihanga, ka tinihangatia koe.
2 O YHWH, favor us, We have waited for You, Be their arm, in the mornings, Indeed, our salvation in time of adversity.
Kia atawhai, e Ihowa, ki a matou; kua tatari nei matou ki a koe: ko koe hei ringa mo ratou i tenei ata, i tenei ata, hei whakaora mo matou i nga wa o te raru.
3 From the voice of a multitude peoples have fled, From Your exaltation nations have been scattered.
I te rongonga i te ngangau, whati ana nga iwi: i tou aranga ki runga, marara ana nga iwi.
4 And Your spoil has been gathered, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts He is running on it.
Ko te kohikohinga o o koutou taonga ano he moka e kohi ana; kei te tarapeke o te mawhitiwhiti te rite ina kokiritia e ratou.
5 YHWH is set on high, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,
Ka whakanuia a Ihowa; kei runga hoki tona nohoanga; nana a Hiona i ki ai i te whakawa, i te tika.
6 And has been the steadfastness of your times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of YHWH—it [is] His treasure.
A ka u nga wa i a koe; hua tonu te whakaora, te whakaaro nui, te matauranga; ko te wehi ki a Ihowa hei taonga mona.
7 Behold, “Their Ariel,” they have cried outside, Messengers of peace weep bitterly.
Nana, he tangi o ratou maia i waho; ko nga karere hohou rongo, tiwerawera ana te tangi.
8 Highways have been desolated, He who passes along the path has ceased, He has broken covenant, He has despised enemies, He has not esteemed a man.
Kua ururuatia nga ara, kua kore e haerea e te tangata: kua paheke i a ia te kawenata, whakahawea ana ia ki nga pa: kahore te tangata e whakaaroa e ia.
9 The land has mourned, languished, Lebanon has been confounded, Sharon has been withered as a wilderness, And Bashan and Carmel are shaking.
E tangi ana te whenua, ngohe noa iho; kua whakama a Repanona, kua memenga; a Harono, rite tonu ki te koraha; ko nga rau o Pahana, o Karamere, ruirui rawa.
10 Now I arise, says YHWH, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.
Katahi ahau ka whakatika, e ai ta Ihowa; katahi ahau ka whakarewa ake i ahau, katahi ahau ka neke ake.
11 You conceive chaff, you bear stubble; Your spirit—a fire [that] devours you.
Ko to koutou hapu he papapa, whanau ake he kakau witi; ko to koutou manawa, ka rite ki te ahi, ka kai i a koutou.
12 And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, they burn with fire.
Ka rite hoki nga iwi ki nga tahunga kotakota; ki te tataramoa kua tapahia, e tahuna ana ki te ahi.
13 Hear, you far off, that which I have done, And know, you near ones, My might.
Whakarongo, e koutou o tawhiti, ki taku i mea ai; e te hunga e tata ana, kia mohio mai ki toku kaha.
14 Sinners have been afraid in Zion, Trembling has seized the profane: Who dwells for us—consuming fire, Who dwells for us—burnings of the age?
Pawera noa iho nga tangata hara i Hiona, mau pu te hunga atuakore i te tuiri. Ko wai o tatou e noho ki te ahi e kai ana? ko wai o tatou e noho ki nga tahunga e kore nei e mutu?
15 Whoever is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,
Ko te tangata e haere ana i runga i te tika, he tika ano ana korero; ko te tangata e whakahawea ana ki nga taonga o te tukino, e rukerukea ana e tona ringa te utu whakapati; e punia ana ona taringa kei rangona he korero toto, e whakamoe ana i on a kanohi kei kite i te kino;
16 He inhabits high places, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread has been given, his waters steadfast.
Ko te nohoanga mo tera kei runga rawa; ko tona wahi arai riri ko nga kaha o nga kamaka: ka homai he taro mana, ka pumau te wai mona.
17 Your eyes see a king in his beauty, They see a far-off land.
Ka kite ou kanohi i te kingi, i tona ataahua: ka matakitaki ano ki te whenua e hora mai ana i tawhiti.
18 Your heart meditates [on] terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?
Ka whakaaroaroa te wehi e tou ngakau: kei hea te kaitatau, kei hea te kaipauna takoha? kei hea te kaitatau o nga pourewa?
19 You do not see the strong people, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.
E kore koe e kite i te iwi nanakia, he hohonu nei to ratou reo, kahore e rangona e koe; he rereke te reo, e kore e matauria e koe.
20 See Zion, the city of our meetings, Your eyes see Jerusalem—a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, its pins are not removed forever, And none of its cords are broken.
Titiro ki Hiona, ki te pa o a tatou hakari: ka kitea e ou kanohi a Hiruharama, he nohoanga humarie, he teneti, e kore e nekehia; e kore tetahi o ona titi e unuhia a ake ake, e kore ano tetahi o ona taura e motu.
21 But YHWH [is] mighty for us there, A place of rivers—streams of broad sides, No ship with oars goes into it, And a mighty ship does not pass over it.
Engari ki reira a Ihowa ki a tatou me tona nui, hei wahi mo nga awa whanui mo nga wai nunui; kahore hoki he waka e hoehoea ki reira, kahore he kaipuke nui e tika na reira.
22 For YHWH, ours who is judging, YHWH our lawgiver, YHWH our King—He saves us.
No te mea ko Ihowa to tatou kaiwhakawa, ko Ihowa to tatou kaiwhakatakoto tikanga, ko Ihowa to tatou kingi; mana tatou e whakaora.
23 Your ropes have been left, They do not correctly strengthen their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then a prey of much spoil has been apportioned, The lame have taken spoil.
Kua tangoro kau ou puwhenua, te taea te turanga o to ratou rewa te whakau, te taea te ra te whewhera: na nui atu te taonga parakete e wehewehea ana, pahuatia ana nga taonga parau e nga kopa.
24 Nor does an inhabitant say, “I was sick”; The people dwelling in it [are] forgiven of [their] iniquity!
Kahore hoki he kianga ake a te tangata whenua, He mate toku; ko te iwi e noho ana i reira, ka murua to ratou he.
