Micah 7
1 Woe! to me for I have become like gathering of summer fruit like gleanings of [the] grape harvest there not [is] a cluster of grapes to eat early fig[s] it craves appetite my.
Aue, te mate i ahau! he rite hoki ahau ki nga kohikohinga o nga hua raumati, ki nga hamunga i te wa e whawhaki karepe ana: kahore he tautau hei kai; e hiahia ana toku wairua ki te hua piki matamua.
2 He has perished [the] faithful from the land and [is] an upright [person] among humankind there not all of them for blood they lie in wait each brother his they hunt a net.
Kua ngaro te tangata tapu i runga i te whenua, kahore hoki he tangata tika i roto i nga tangata: kei te whanga katoa ratou ki te toto; kei te whai ratou i tona hoa, i tona hoa ki te kupenga.
3 [are] on Evil both hands to do [it] well the official [is] asking and the judge (for bribe *L(abh)*) and the great [person] [is] speaking [the] craving of self his he and they weave it.
Kei runga o ratou ringa i te mea kino kia mahia marietia e ratou; ka tono te rangatira, kei te tatari hoki te kaiwhakawa kia utua; a ko te tangata nui, e puaki ana i a ia te nanakia o tona wairua: na, whiria tahitia ake e ratou.
4 Good person their [is] like a thorn-bush an upright [person] more than a thorn hedge [the] day of watchmen your punishment your it has come now it will be confusion their.
Ko te tangata pai o ratou, rite tonu ki te tumatakuru: ko te mea tino tika, kino atu i te taiepa tataramoa: kua tae mai te ra o au tutei, ara te ra e whiua ai koe; ko aianei ratou pokaikaha ai.
5 May not you believe in a neighbor may not you trust in a close friend from [she who] lies of bosom your guard [the] openings of mouth your.
Kaua e whakapono ki te hoa, kaua e whakawhirinaki ki te kaiarahi: kaiponuhia nga tatau o tou mangai ki te wahine e takoto na i tou uma.
6 For a son [is] treating with contempt a father a daughter [is] arising on mother her a daughter-in-law on mother-in-law her [are the] enemies of a person [the] people of own household his.
E whakaiti ana hoki te tama ki te papa, e whakatika atu ana te kotiro ki tona whaea, te hunaonga ki tona hungawai wahine; ko nga hoariri o te tangata ko nga tangata o tona whare.
7 And I for Yahweh I will watch I will wait for [the] God of salvation my he will hear me God my.
Tena ko ahau, ka titiro ahau ki a Ihowa; ka tatari ahau ki te Atua o toku whakaoranga: tera toku Atua e rongo ki ahau.
8 May not you rejoice O enemy my to me for I have fallen I will arise for I sit in darkness Yahweh [will be] light of me.
Kei whakamanamana ki ahau e toku hoariri; ki te hinga ahau, ka ara ano ahau; ki te noho ahau i te pouri, ko Ihowa hei whakamarama moku.
9 [the] indignation of Yahweh I will bear for I have sinned to him until that he will conduct case my and he will do justice my he will bring out me to the light I will look on righteousness his.
Maku e waha te riri o Ihowa, kua hara nei hoki ahau ki a ia; kia tohe ra ano ia i taku tohe, kia whakarite ra ano i taku whakawa, ka whakaputaina ahau e ia ki waho ki te marama, a ka kite ahau i tona tika.
10 And she will see enemy my and it will cover her shame [she] who says to me where [is]? he Yahweh God your eyes my they will look on her now she will become a trampling place like [the] mud of [the] streets.
Katahi toku hoariri ka kite, a ka taupokina e te whakama; i ki mai ra hoki ia ki ahau, Kei hea a Ihowa, tou Atua? Ka kite oku kanohi i taua wahine; akuanei ia takahia ai, peratia ai me te paru o nga ara.
11 A day to build walls your a day that it will be far a boundary.
He ra hei hanganga mo ou taiepa! a taua ra ka matara rawa atu te tikanga i whakatakotoria.
12 A day that and to you someone will come from Assyria and [the] cities of Egypt and from Egypt and to [the] River and sea from sea and mountain the mountain.
A taua ra ka haere mai ratou ki a koe, mai i Ahiria me nga pa o Ihipa, mai i Ihipa ki te awa, mai i tetahi moana ki tetahi, i tetahi maunga ki tetahi maunga.
13 And it will become the earth a desolation on inhabitants its from [the] fruit of deeds their.
Otiia ka ururuatia te whenua, he mea mo te hunga e noho ana i reira, mo nga hua hoki o a ratou mahi.
14 Shepherd people your with rod your [the] flock of inheritance your [who] dwell alone a forest in [the] midst of a garden-land let them graze Bashan and Gilead like [the] days of antiquity.
Whangaia tau iwi ki tau rakau, nga hipi o tou kainga tupu, e noho mokemoke nei i te ngahere i waenganui o Karamere: kia kai ratou ki Pahana, ki Kireara, kia pera me nga ra o mua,
15 Like [the] days coming out you from [the] land of Egypt I will show him wonders.
Ka rite ki nga ra i haere mai ai koe i te whenua o Ihipa, ka whakaaturia e ahau ki a ia nga mea whakamiharo.
16 They will see nations so they may be ashamed from all strength their they will put a hand on a mouth ears their they will be deaf.
Ka kite nga iwi, ka whakama ki to ratou marohirohi katoa: ka kopania to ratou mangai ki to ratou ringa, a ka turi o ratou taringa.
17 They will lick up dust like snake like [things which] crawl of [the] earth they will quake from strongholds their to Yahweh God our they will be in dread and they may be afraid from you.
Ka mitimiti ratou i te puehu, ano he nakahi; ka oho wiri mai ratou i o ratou piringa kopiri, ano ko nga mea ngokingoki o te whenua: ka haere wehi mai ratou ki a Ihowa, ki to tatou Atua, a ka mataku ki a koe.
18 Who? [is] a God like you [who] forgives iniquity and [who] passes over transgression to [the] remnant of inheritance his not he keeps hold of for ever anger his for [is one] desirous of covenant loyalty he.
Ko wai he Atua hei rite mou, e muru nei i te he, e whakarere noa nei i te poka ke o nga morehu o tona wahi tupu? E kore ia e kawe tonu i tona riri a ake ake, no te mea e ngakau nui ana ia ki te tohu tangata.
19 He will return he will have compassion on us he will subdue iniquities our so you may cast in [the] depths of [the] sea all sins their.
Tera ia e tahuri ano, ka aroha ki a tatou; ka pehia e ia o tatou kino ki raro ki ona waewae; ka panga ano e koe o ratou hara ki nga rire o te moana.
20 You will give faithfulness to Jacob covenant loyalty to Abraham which you swore to fathers our from days of antiquity.
Ka whakatutukitia e koe te mea tika ki a Hakopa, te aroha ki a Aperahama, ko tau i oati ai ki o matou matua i nga ra o mua.
