< Jeremiah 48 >

1 Of Moab. "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Woe to Nebo, because it is about to be destroyed; Kiriathaim will be put to shame, it will be taken captive. The fortress is put to shame and broken down.
Mo Moapa. Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: Aue, te mate mo Nepo! kua pahuatia hoki; kua meinga a Kiriataima kia whakama, kua riro: kua meinga a Mihikapa kia whakama, kua wawahia iho ia.
2 The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: "Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation." You also, Madmen, shall be brought to silence: the sword shall pursue you.
Kua kahore te whakamoemiti mo Moapa; i Hehepona ratou e whakatakoto ana i te kino mona, Haere mai, tatou ka hatepe atu i a ia, kia kore ai tena iwi. Ko koe ano hoki, e Maramene, ka whakanohopukutia koe; ka aru te hoari i a koe.
3 The sound of a cry from Horonaim, "destruction and great calamity."
Ka puta te reo aue i Horonaimi, he pahua, he whakangaromanga nui!
4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
Ka oti a Moapa te tukituki; he aue ka rangona, na ana mea ririki.
5 For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
Ka haere hoki ratou ma te pikinga atu ki Ruhiti me te tangi haere tonu; no te mea i te heketanga ki Horonaimi kua rongo ratou i te mamae kino o te aue ki te whakangaromanga.
6 "Flee, save your lives, and be like a shrub in the wilderness."
E rere, kahaki i a koutou kia ora ai, kia rite ai ki te manoao i te koraha.
7 For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also shall be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his officials together.
No te mea, nau i whakawhirinaki ki au mahi, ki au taonga, koia ano koe ka horo ai: a ka riro a Kemoho i te whakarau, ratou tahi ko ona tohunga, ko ona rangatira.
8 The destroyer shall come on every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as the LORD has spoken.
Ka tae te kaipahua ki nga pa katoa, e kore hoki tetahi pa e puta; ka ngaro te raorao, ka huna hoki te mania; ka pera me ta Ihowa i korero ai.
9 Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell in them.'
Hoatu he parirau mo Moapa, kia rere atu ai, kia puta ai: a ka ururuatia ona pa, te ai he tangata hei noho ki reira.
10 Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
Ka kanga te tangata e mahi whakaparahako ana i ta Ihowa mahi, a ka kanga hoki te tangata e kore nei e tuku i tana hoari ki te toto.
11 'Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
I runga a Moapa i te rangimarie no tona tamarikitanga ake, a i ata takoto ia i runga i ona nganga, kihai i ringihia atu i tetahi oko ki tetahi oko, kihai ano hoki ia i riro i te whakarau: heoi mau tonu tona reka ki a ia, a kihai tona kakara i re re ke.
12 Therefore look, the days come,' says the LORD, 'that I will send to him those who pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
Mo reira, nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e unga ai e ahau ki a ia te hunga ringiringi, a ka ringihia atu ia e ratou; a ka noho tahanga i a ratou ana oko, ka pakaru rikiriki hoki a ratou pounamu.
13 Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
Na ka whakama a Moapa ki a Kemoho, ka pera me te whare o Iharaira i whakama ra ki Peteere, ki ta ratou i whakawhirinaki ai.
14 How can you say, "We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?"
He pehea ta koutou e ki na, He marohirohi tatou, he uaua ki te whawhai?
15 Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter,' says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
Kua pahuatia a Moapa, a kua piki atu ratou ki ona pa, kua heke iho hoki ana taitama, he mea whiriwhiri, kei raro, he parekura, e ai ta te Kingi, ko Ihowa, nei o nga mano tona ingoa.
16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
Ka tata te aitua o Moapa te puta, a kei te tino kaika mei te he mona.
17 All you who are around him, bemoan him, and all you who know his name; say, "How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod."
Tangihia ia, e koutou katoa i tetahi taha ona, i tetahi taha, e koutou e mohio ana ki tona ingoa; ki ake, Ano te whatinga o te rakau kaha, o te tokotoko ataahua!
18 You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you, he has destroyed your strongholds.
E te tamahine e noho mai nei i Ripono, makere mai i tou kororia, e noho ki te matewai; no te mea kua tae te kaipahua o Moapa ki a koe, kua kore i a ia ou wahi kaha.
19 Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, "What has been done?"
E te wahine e noho ana i Aroere, e tu ki te ara titiro ai: ui atu ki te tangata e rere ana, ki te wahine e mawhiti ana; mea atu, he aha kua meatia?
20 "Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste."
Kua whakama a Moapa; kua pakaru: aue, e tangi; korerotia ki Aranono, kua oti a Moapa te pahua.
21 Judgment has come on the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahzah, and on Mephaath,
Kua tae atu ano te whakawa ki te mania; ki Horono, ki Iahata, ki Mepaata;
22 and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth Diblathaim,
A ki Ripono, ki Nepo, ki Peteripirataima;
23 and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth Gamul, and on Beth Meon,
A Kiriataima, ki Petekamuru, ki Petemeono;
24 and on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
Ki Kerioto, ki Potora, ki nga pa katoa o te whenua o Moapa, ki nga mea i tawhiti, ki nga mea e tata ana.
25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,' says the LORD.
Kua oti te haona o Moapa te pouto atu, kua whati tona ringa, e ai ta Ihowa.
26 'Make him drunk; for he magnified himself against the LORD: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
Meinga ia e koutou kia haurangi; mona i whakakakake ki a Ihowa: a ka okeoke a Moapa i roto i tona ruaki, a ka waiho ano ia hei katanga.
27 For wasn't Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
He teka ianei i waiho a Iharaira hei katanga mau? i kitea ranei ia i roto i nga tahae? no te mea i au korerotanga katoa mona, e oraora ana te mahunga.
28 You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
E nga tangata o Moapa, whakarerea nga pa, e noho ki te kamaka; a kia rite ki te kukupa e hanga nei i tona ohanga ki nga taha o te kuwaha o te rua.
29 We have heard of the pride of Moab--he is very proud--of his pride, and his vanity, and his arrogance, and the haughtiness of his heart.
Kua rongo tatou i te whakahihi o Moapa, nui atu hoki tona whakahihi; i tona whakakake, i tona whakamanamana, i tona whakapehapeha, i te whakahirahira hoki o tona ngakau.
30 I know his wrath,' says the LORD, 'that it is nothing; his boastings have worked nothing.
E mohio ana ahau ki tona riri, e ai ta Ihowa, otiia kahore he tikanga; kahore he rawa o ana whakapehapeha.
31 therefore I will wail for Moab; yes, I will cry out for all Moab; I will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
Mo reira ka tangi ahau mo Moapa; ae ra, ka aue ahau mo Moapa katoa: ka uhunga ratou mo nga tangata o Kiriherehe.
32 With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for you, vine of Sibmah: your branches passed over the sea, they reached even to Jazer; on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.
E te waina o Hipima, ka tangihia koe e ahau, nui atu i te tangihanga mo Iatere: kua whiti ou peka ki tera taha o te moana, kua tae rawa ki te moana o Iatere: kua kokiri atu te kaipahua ki au hua raumati, ki tau kohikohinga waina.
33 Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
A kua whakakahoretia atu te koa me te hari i te mara momona, i te whenua hoki o Moapa; a kua mutu i ahau he waina mo nga takahanga waina; e kore tetahi e hamama i te takahanga; ko to ratou hamama ehara i te hamama.
34 From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.
No te auetanga i Hehepona tae noa ki Ereare, ki Iahata, te puakanga o to ratou reo, no Toara tae noa ki Horonaimi, ki Ekerata Herihiia: no te mea ka mokemoke ano hoki nga wai o Nimirimi.
35 And I will cause to cease in Moab,' says the LORD, 'the one who offers sacrifice upon the high place, and the one who burns incense to his gods.
Ka meinga ano hoki e ahau kia mutu i roto i a Moapa, e ai ta Ihowa, te tangata whakaeke whakahere ki te wahi tiketike, me te tangata tahu whakakakaraki ona atua.
36 Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like pipes, and my heart sounds like pipes for the men of Kir Heres: therefore the abundance that he has gotten is perished.
Na reira kei te tangi toku ngakau ki a Moapa ano he putorino, kei te tangi hoki toku ngakau ano he putorino ki nga tangata o Kiriherehe; na reira kua moti nga mea maha i mahia e ia.
37 For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands are cuttings, and on the waist sackcloth.
He mea moremore katoa hoki nga mahunga, ko nga kumikumi katoa tapahi rawa: he haehaenga kei nga ringa katoa, he kakahu taratara kei nga hope.
38 On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which none delights,' says the LORD.
Kei runga i nga tuanui katoa o Moapa a kei ona ara he uhunga kei nga wahi katoa: no te mea kua pakaru i ahau a Moapa, ano he oko e kore e manakohia, e ai ta Ihowa.
39 How it is broken down. How they wail. How Moab has turned the back with shame. So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.'
Ano tona wawahanga! Ta ratou aue! ina, te tahuritanga mai o te tuara o Moapa i te whakama! na ka waiho a Moapa hei katanga, hei whakawehi ki te hunga i tetahi taha ona, i tetahi taha.
40 For thus says the LORD: 'Look, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
No te mea ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka rere ia ano he ekara, ka roha hoki ona parirau ki runga ki Moapa.
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Kua horo Kerioto, kua riro nga wahi kaha, a ka rite te ngakau o nga marohirohi o Moapa i taua ra ki te ngakau o te wahine e whakamamae ana.
42 Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against the LORD.
A ka huna a Moapa, ka kore tena iwi, mona i whakakake ki a Ihowa.
43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are on you, inhabitant of Moab, says the LORD.
Ko te wehi, ko te poka, ko te rore, kei a koe, e te tangata o Moapa, e ai ta Ihowa.
44 He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,' says the LORD.
Ko te tangata e rere ana i te wehi, ka taka ki te poka; a ko te tangata e puta ake ana i te poka, ka mau i te rore: ka takina hoki e ahau ki runga ki a ia, ara ki a Moapa, te tau e tirotirohia ai ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
45 'Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the city of Sihon, and it has destroyed the forehead of Moab, and the crown of the sons of tumult.
Ko te hunga i rere, tu ana ratou i raro i te ata o Hehepona, kahore he kaha: kua puta atu hoki he ahi i Hehepona, he mura i waenganui o Hihono, a kua pau te koki o Moapa, te tumuaki hoki o nga tama a te ngangau.
46 Woe to you, O Moab. The people of Chemosh is undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
Aue, te mate mou, e Moapa! kua huna te iwi o Kemoho: kua riro hoki au tama hei whakarau, au tamahine hoki hei whakarau.
47 Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days,' says the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab."
Otiia ka whakahokia mai ano e ahau a Moapa i te whakarau i nga ra whakamutunga, e ai ta Ihowa. Heoi ano te whakawa mo Moapa.
