Isaiah 18
1 Alas! O land of whirring of wings which [is] from [the] other side of [the] rivers of Cush.
Ha, ko te whenua e kapakapa nei nga parirau i tera taha o nga wai o Etiopia!
2 Which sends on the sea envoys and in vessels of papyrus on [the] surface of [the] waters go - O messengers swift to a nation tall and smooth skinned to a people feared from it and beyond a nation of strength of strength and trampling which they divide rivers land its.
E unga karere nei i runga i te moana, a ko o ratou kaipuke he kakaho i runga i nga wai, e ki ana, Haere, e nga karere tere, ki tetahi iwi roroa, maheni hoki, ki te iwi i wehingia i to ratou timatanga iho a mohoa noa nei; ki te iwi he mahi ruri ne i, he takatakahi nei tana, ko tona whenua wahia iho e nga awa.
3 O all [the] inhabitants of [the] world and [those who] dwell earth when lifts up a standard mountains you will see [it] and just as sounds a trumpet you will hear [it].
E nga tangata katoa o te ao, e te hunga e noho ana i te whenua, titiro mai, ina whakaarahia te kara ki runga i nga maunga; whakarongo mai, ina whakatangihia te tetere.
4 For thus he said Yahweh to me (I will remain quiet *Q(k)*) and I will pay attention in place my like heat dazzling with light like a cloud of dew in [the] heat of harvest.
Ko ta Ihowa kupu hoki tenei ki ahau, Ka ata noho ahau, ka titiro hoki i toku nohoanga; ka rite ahau ki te mahana i te mea ka mahea, ka rite ki te kapua tomairangi i te mahana o te kotinga.
5 For before harvest when is finished bud[s] and unripe grape[s] ripening it will become blossom and he will cut off the shoots with pruning knives and the tendrils he will remove he will cut away.
Hei mua hoki i te kotinga, kia ngahoro te puawai, kia puta ki te puawai he karepe e maoa haere ana, na ka hatepea atu e ia nga peka ririki ki te tapahi peka, a ko nga manga ka tangohia, ka tapahia ki raro.
6 They will be abandoned alike to bird[s] of prey of [the] mountains and to [the] animal[s] of the earth and it will pass [the] summer on it the bird[s] of prey and every animal of the earth on it it will pass [the] winter.
Ka waiho ngatahi atu ratou ma nga manu tokokai o nga maunga, ma nga kararehe hoki o te whenua; ka whakatau nga manu tokokai ki runga ki a ratou i te raumati, ka whakakainga hoki nga kararehe katoa o te whenua ki reira i te hotoke.
7 At the time that it will be brought a gift to Yahweh of hosts a people tall and smooth skinned and from a people feared from it and beyond a nation of - strength of strength and trampling which they divide rivers land its to [the] place of [the] name of Yahweh of hosts [the] mountain of Zion.
I taua wa ka maua mai he hakari ki a Ihowa o nga mano, o te iwi roroa, maheni hoki, na te iwi i wehingia i to ratou timatanga iho, a mohoa noa nei, na te iwi he mahi ruri nei, he takatakahi nei tana, a ko tona whenua wahia iho e nga awa, ki te wa hi o te ingoa o Ihowa o nga mano, ki Maunga Hiona.
