< Jeremiah 2 >

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
I puta ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 Go and you will proclaim in [the] ears of Jerusalem saying thus he says Yahweh I remember to you [the] covenant loyalty of youth your [the] love of betrothal your walking you after me in the wilderness in a land not sown.
Haere, karanga ki nga taringa o Hiruharama, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E mahara ana ahau ki a koe, ki te mahi pai a tou tamarikitanga, ki te aroha i tou marenatanga, i a koe i aru i ahau i te koraha, i te whenua kihai i whakatokia.
3 [was] a holy thing Israel to Yahweh [the] beginning of (produce his *Q(K)*) all [those who] devour it they will be held guilty calamity it will come to them [the] utterance of Yahweh.
He tapu a Iharaira ki a Ihowa, ko nga matamua ia o ona hua: ko te hunga katoa e kai ana i a ia, ka kiia he he ta ratou; ka pa te kino ki a ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
4 Hear [the] word of Yahweh O house of Jacob and all [the] clans of [the] house of Israel.
Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, e te whare o Hakopa, e nga hapu katoa o te whare o Iharaira:
5 Thus - he says Yahweh what? did they find ancestors your in me injustice that they became distant from with me and they walked after vanity and they became vain.
Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, He aha taku kino i mau i o koutou matua, i matara atu ai ratou i ahau, i whai ai ratou i te horihori, a horihori iho ratou?
6 And not they said where? [is] Yahweh who brought up us from [the] land of Egypt who led us in the wilderness in a land of desert plain and pit in a land dry and deep darkness in a land [which] not he has passed in it anyone and not he has dwelt anyone there.
Kahore hoki a ratou kainga ake, Kei hea a Ihowa, nana nei tatou i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa, nana nei tatou i arahi i te koraha, i te whenua titohea, he maha nei nga rua, i te whenua o te matewai, o te atarangi o te mate, i te whenua kihai i h aerea e te tangata, kihai ano i nohoia e te tangata?
7 And I brought you into [the] land of the orchard to eat fruit its and good thing[s] its and you came and you made unclean land my and inheritance my you made into an abomination.
A naku koutou i kawe mai ki te whenua maha ona hua, ki te kai i ona hua, i ona mea papai. Na, i to koutou taenga mai, kei te whakapoke i toku whenua, meinga ana e koutou toku wahi tupu hei mea whakarihariha.
8 The priests not they said where? [is] Yahweh and [those who] handled the law not they knew me and the shepherds they rebelled against me and the prophets they prophesied by Baal and after [things which] not they profited they walked.
Kahore nga tohunga i ki, Kei hea a Ihowa; ko nga kairahurahu o te ture, kahore i matau ki ahau; kua he hoki nga rangatira ki ahau; ko nga poropiti, na Paara nga tikanga i poropiti ai ratou, whaia ana e ratou nga mea kahore nei he pai.
9 Therefore again I will contend with you [the] utterance of Yahweh and with [the] children of children your I will contend.
Mo reira ka totohe ano ahau ki a koutou, e ai ta Ihowa, ka totohe hoki ahau ki nga tama a a koutou tama.
10 For pass over [the] coasts of Cyprus and see and Kedar send and consider carefully exceedingly and see there! it has happened like this.
Tena ra, whiti atu ki nga motu o Kitimi titiro ai; unga tangata ano ki Kerara, ka whakaaroaro marie; tirohia hoki mehemea tera ano te rite o tenei mea i mua.
11 ¿ Has it exchanged a nation gods and they not [are] gods and people my it has exchanged glory its for [that which] not it profits.
I whakaputaia ketia ranei ona atua e tetahi iwi, ehara nei ano i te atua? Na, ko toku iwi, kua whakaputaina ketia e ratou to ratou kororia hei mea kahore ona pai.
12 Be appalled O heaven on this and shudder be desolate exceedingly [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Miharo mai, e nga rangi, ki tenei, kia nui hoki te wehi, kia ngaro noa iho, e ai ta Ihowa.
13 That two evil things it has done people my me they have forsaken a spring of - water living to dig for themselves cisterns cisterns broken which not they contain water.
Ka rua hoki nga he kua mahia nei e taku iwi; ko ahau, ko te puna o nga wai ora kua mahue i a ratou, haua iho e ratou etahi poka, he poka pakaru, e kore nei e mau te wai ki roto.
14 ¿ A slave [is] Israel or? one born of [the] household [is] it why? has it become plunder.
He pononga ranei a Iharaira? he pononga i whanau ki te whare? he aha ia i waiho ai hei pahuatanga?
15 On it they have been roaring young lions they have given voice their and they have made land its into a waste cities its (they are burnt *Q(K)*) because not inhabitant.
Kua ngengere nga raiona kuao ki a ia, kua hamama: a kua meinga e ratou tona whenua kia ururua; kua tahuna ona pa, kahore hoki te tangata noho i reira.
16 Also [the] people of Memphis (and Tahpanhes *Q(k)*) they will graze you scalp.
I pakaru ano tou tumuaki i nga tamariki o Nopo, o Tahapanehe.
17 ¿ Not this have you done to yourself by forsaking you Yahweh God your at [the] time of [one who] led you in the way.
He teka ianei nau ano tenei i mahi ki a koe, i te mea nau i whakarere a Ihowa, tou Atua, i a ia e arahi ana i a koe i te ara?
18 And therefore what? [is] to you to [the] journey of Egypt to drink [the] water of [the] Shihor and what? [is] to you to [the] journey of Assyria to drink [the] water of [the] River.
Tena ra ko te aha mau i te ara ki Ihipa i inu ai koe i nga wai o Hihoro? he aha ranei mau i te ara ki Ahiria, i inu ai koe i nga wai o te awa?
19 It will punish you wickedness your and apostasies your they will rebuke you and know and see that [is] evil and bitter forsaking you Yahweh God your and not awe of me [is] with you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts.
Ko tou he ano hei riri i tau, ko ou tahuritanga ketanga ano hei papaki i a koe. Kia mohio koe, kia kite hoki, he mea kino, he mea kawa, kei tau whakarerenga i a Ihowa, i tou Atua, kahore hoki ou wehi ki ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa o nga man o.
20 That from long ago I broke off yoke your I tore off fetters your and you said not (I will transgress *Q(K)*) for on every hill high and under every tree luxuriant you [have been] lying down a prostitute.
I wahia hoki tou ioka e ahau i mua, motumotuhia ana e ahau ou here; a ki mai ana koe, E kore ahau e mahi; heoi i runga koe i nga pukepuke tiketike katoa, i raro hoki i nga rakau kouru nui katoa, e koropiko ana, e kairau ana.
21 And I I had planted you a choice vine all of it [was] seed of reliability and how? have you changed yourself to me [the] degenerate [ones] of the vine alien.
He waina pai ano koe i taku whakatokanga i a koe, he momo pai katoa. Na te aha koe i puta ke ai ki ahau, he mea kua heke te tupu, he waina ke?
22 That though you will wash with soda so you may increase for yourself soap [is] stained iniquity your before me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Ahakoa i horoi koe i a koe ki te houra, a nui noa tau hopi, e mau ana ano tou he ki toku aroaro, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
23 How? will you say not I have made myself unclean after the Baals not I have walked consider conduct your in the valley recognize what? have you done a young camel swift entwining paths its.
He pehea tau ki, Kahore oku poke, kihai ahau i whai i a Paarimi? Tirohia iho ou ara i te raorao, kia mohio ki au mahi. Tou rite, kei te kamera tere kopikopiko tonu ona ara;
24 A wild donkey - accustomed to a wilderness in [the] lust of (self its *Q(K)*) it sniffs [the] wind heat its who? will he turn back it all [those who] seek it not they will grow weary in month its they will find it.
Kei te kaihe mohoao kua mohio ki te koraha, e hongi ana i te hau mo tona hiahia; ka matenui ia ko wai hei whakahoki i a ia? ko te hunga katoa e rapu ana i a ia e kore e whakangenge noa i a ratou; i tona marama ano ka kitea ia e ratou.
25 Restrain foot your from barefoot (and throat your *Q(K)*) from thirst and you said despairing In-deed I love strange [gods] and after them I will walk.
Kaiponuhia tou waewae, kei kore te hu, tou korokoro hoki kei mate i te wai. Na, kei te mea koe, Kua he: kahore; he tangata ke hoki aku i aroha ai, a ko ratou taku e whai ai.
26 Like [the] shame of a thief if he is found so they have been put to shame [the] house of Israel they kings their officials their and priests their and prophets their.
Ka whakama te tahae ina mau, ka pena ano te whare o Iharaira, ka whakama; ratou ko o ratou kingi, ko o ratou rangatira, ko o ratou tohunga, ko o ratou poropiti,
27 [who] say To wood [are] father my you and to stone you (you gave birth to us *Q(K)*) for they have turned to me a back and not a face and at [the] time of calamity their they will say arise! and save us.
I a ratou e mea na ki te rakau, Ko koe toku papa; ki te kamaka, I whanau ahau i roto i a koe, hurihia ake e ratou ko te kohamo ki ahau, kahore hoki te aroaro: heoi i te wa e he ai ratou, ka ki mai ratou, Whakatika ki te whakaora i a matou.
28 And where? [are] gods your which you made for yourself let them arise if they will save you at [the] time of calamity your for [the] number of cities your they are gods your O Judah.
Kei hea ra ou atua i hanga e koe mou? kia whakatika ratou, ki te mea ka ora koe i a ratou i te wa e he ai koe: rite tonu hoki ki ou pa te maha o ou atua, e Hura.
29 Why? do you contend against me all of you you have rebelled against me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
He aha te mea e totohe ai koutou ki ahau? kua mahi ke koutou katoa i te kino ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.
30 For vanity I struck sons your correction not they accepted it devoured sword your prophets your like a lion destroying.
Maumau whiu noa ahau i a koutou tamariki; kihai ratou i akona: ko ta koutou hoari nana i kai o koutou poropiti, i pera ano me ta te raiona kai kino.
31 O generation you consider [the] word of Yahweh ¿ a wilderness have I been to Israel or? a land of darkness why? have they said people my we have roamed not we will come again to you.
E te whakatupuranga nei, whakaaroa te kupu a Ihowa, He koraha ranei ahau ki a Iharaira? he whenua pouri kerekere? he aha taku iwi i mea ai, Kua matara matou; heoi ano o matou taenga atu ki a koe?
32 ¿ Will she forget a virgin ornament[s] her a bride sashes her and people my they have forgotten me days there not [is] number.
E wareware ranei te kotiro ki ana whakapaipai, te wahine marena hou ki ona whitiki? ko taku iwi ia kua wareware ki ahau, e kore nga ra e taea te tatau.
33 How! you make good way your to seek love therefore also wicked women (you have taught *Q(K)*) ways your.
Tau mahi ki te whakapai i tou ara hei rapunga i te aroha! Na kei te whakaako koe i nga wahine kikino ano hoki ki ou ara.
34 Also on skirts your they were found [the] blood of [the] lives of needy [people] innocent not in breaking in you found them for on all these [things].
Kua kitea ano ki nga remu o ou kakahu te toto o nga wairua o nga ware harakore. Kihai i kitea e ahau i te wahi i pakaru ai, engari i runga i enei katoa.
35 And you said that I am innocent surely it has turned back anger his from me here I [am] about to enter into judgment with with you because saying you not I have sinned.
Heoi kei te ki na koe, He harakore nei ahau; he pono e tahuri ke atu ana tona riri i ahau. Nana, ka whakawa ahau i a koe, mo tau kianga, Kahore oku hara.
36 Why? do you treat lightly exceedingly to change way your also from Egypt you will be ashamed just as you were ashamed from Assyria.
He aha koe i kopikopiko rawa ai, i mea ai kia pokaia ketia he ara mou? Ka whakama ano koe ki Ihipa, ka pera me koe i whakama ra ki Ahiria.
37 Also from with this [one] you will go out and hands your [will be] on head your for he has rejected Yahweh objects of confidence your and not you will prosper to them.
Ina, ka haere atu ano koe i reira, i runga ano ou ringa i tou matenga, no te mea kua paopao a Ihowa ki ou whakawhirinakitanga, e kore ano koe e whai wahi i ena.
