< Nehemiah 4 >
1 Forsothe it was doon, whanne Sanaballath hadde herd, that we bildiden the wal, he was ful wrooth, and he was stirid greetli, and scornede the Jewis.
No te rongonga ia o Hanaparata kei te hanga matou i te taiepa, ka riri, nui atu te riri, ka whakahi ki nga Hurai.
2 And he seide bifor hise britheren, and the multitude of Samaritans, What doen the feble Jewis? Whether hethene men schulen suffre hem? Whether thei schulen fille, and make sacrifice in o dai? Whether thei moun bilde stonys of the heepis of the dust, that ben brent?
Na ka korero ia i te aroaro o ona teina, o te ope ano o Hamaria, ka mea, E aha ana enei Hurai ngoikore? e hanga pa ranei ratou? e mea patunga tapu ranei ratou? e oti ranei i a ratou i te ra kotahi? e whakaorangia ake ranei e ratou nga kohatu i ro to i nga puranga paru kua oti na te tahu?
3 But also Tobie Amanytes, his neiybore, seide, Bilde thei; if a fox stieth, he schal `skippe ouer the stony wal `of hem.
Na i tona taha a Topia Amoni, a ka mea ia, Ko taua mea e hanga na e ratou, ki te piki atu he pokiha, ka pakaru ta ratou taiepa kohatu.
4 And Neemye seide, Oure God, here thou, for we ben maad dispising; turne thou the schenschip on her heed, and yyue thou hem in to dispisyng in the lond of caytifte;
Whakarongo, e to matou Atua, e whakahaweatia ana hoki matou; whakahokia iho ano ta ratou taunu ki runga ki to ratou upoko; hoatu hoki ratou hei taonga parakete ki te whenua e whakaraua ai;
5 hile thou not the wickidnesse of hem, and her synnes be not doon awei bifor thi face; for thei scorneden bilderis.
A kei hipokina to ratou he, kaua ano to ratou hara e murua i tou aroaro; mo ratou i whakapataritari i a koe i te aroaro o nga kaihanga.
6 Therfor we bildiden the wal, and ioyneden togidere al `til to the half part, and the herte of the puple was exitid to worche.
Na hanga ana e matou te taiepa; a ka honoa te taiepa katoa, kia tae ki te hawhe ano o tona tiketike: he ngakau hoki to te iwi ki te mahi.
7 Forsothe it was doon, whanne Sanaballat `hadde herd, and Tobie, and Arabiens, and Amanytys, and men of Azotus hadden herd, that the brekyng of the wal of Jerusalem was stoppid, and that the crasyngis hadden bigunne to be closid togidere, thei weren ful wrothe.
I te rongonga ia o Hanaparata, o Topia, o nga Arapi, o nga Amoni, o nga Aharori, kua neke haere te hanga o nga taiepa o Hiruharama, a kua timata nga wahi pakaru te kapi, na nui atu to ratou riri.
8 And alle weren gaderid togidere to come and fiyte ayens Jerusalem, and to caste tresouns.
Na ka whakatupu ngatahi ratou katoa i te he, kia haere mai ki te whawhai ki Hiruharama, whakaware ai.
9 And we preieden oure Lord God, and we settiden keperis on the wal bi dai and niyt ayens hem.
Heoi inoi ana matou ki to matou Atua, whakaturia ana e matou he atiati mo ratou, i te ao, i te po, i te wehi hoki i a ratou.
10 Forsothe Juda seide, The strengthe of the berere is maad feble, and the erthe is ful myche, and we moun not bilde the wal.
Na ka mea a Hura, Kua hemo te kaha o nga kaipikau, e nui ana hoki te paru; na e kore matou e kaha ki te hanga i te taiepa.
11 And oure enemyes seiden, Wite thei not, and knowe thei not, til we comen in to the myddil of hem, and sleen hem, and maken the werk to ceesse.
I mea ano o matou hoariri, E kore ratou e mohio, e kore e kite, kia tae atu ra ano tatou ki waenganui i a ratou, ko reira tatou tukituki ai i a ratou, whakamutu ai hoki i te mahi.
12 Forsothe it was doon, whanne Jewis came, that dwelliden bisidis hem, and seiden to vs `bi ten tymes, fro alle places fro whiche thei camen to vs,
A, no te taenga mai o nga Hurai e noho ana i to ratou taha, tekau a ratou meatanga mai ki a matou i nga wahi katoa, Me hoki mai koutou ki a matou.
13 Y ordeynede the puple in ordre, with her swerdis, and speris, and bouwis, in a place bihynde the wal bi cumpas.
Na reira i whakaturia ai e ahau ki nga wahi o raro, ki tua mai o te taiepa, ki nga wahi tuwhera ano hoki, whakaturia ana e ahau te iwi, tenei hapu, tenei hapu, o ratou, i a ratou ano a ratou hoari, a ratou tao, a ratou kopere.
14 Y bihelde, and roos, and seide to the principal men, and magistratis, and to `the tother part of the comyn puple, Nyle ye drede of her face; haue ye mynde of the greet Lord, and ferdful, and fiyte ye for youre britheren, and youre sones, and youre douytris, for youre wyues, and housis.
Na ka titiro ahau, ka whakatika ki runga, ka mea ki nga rangatira, ki nga tangata nunui, ki era atu ano o te iwi, Kaua e wehi ki a ratou. Kia mahara ki te Ariki, ki te mea nui e wehingia ana, ka whawhai kia ora ai o koutou tuakana, teina, a kout ou tama, a koutou tamahine, a koutou wahine, me o koutou whare.
15 Forsothe it was doon, whanne oure enemyes hadden herd that it was teld to vs, God distriede her counsel; and alle we turneden ayen to the wallis, ech man to his werk.
A, ka rongo o matou hoariri ka mohiotia tera e matou, a kua whakataka nei e te Atua o ratou whakaaro, na hoki ana matou katoa ki te taiepa ki tana mahi, ki tana mahi.
16 And it was doon fro that dai, the half part of yonge men made werk, and the half part was redi to batel; `and speris, and scheldis, and bouwis, and harburiouns, and princes aftir hem, in al the hows of men of Juda,
No taua ra ano ko tetahi tanga o aku tangata hei mahi i te mahi, a ko tetahi tanga o ratou hei pupuri i nga tao, i nga whakangungu rakau, i nga kopere, i nga pukupuku; ko nga rangatira, i muri ratou i te whare katoa o Hura.
17 bildynge in the wal, and berynge birthuns, and puttynge on; with her oon hond thei maden werk, and with the tother thei helden swerd.
Ko nga kaihanga i te taiepa, me nga kaiwaha i nga pikaunga, whakawaha ana ratou, a kotahi te ringa o tenei, o tenei, ki te mahi i te mahi, kotahi hei pupuri i te patu.
18 For ech of the bilderis was gird with the swerd on the reynes; and thei bildiden, and sowneden with clariouns bisidis me.
Na, ko nga kaihanga, whitiki rawa tana hoari ki tona taha, ki tona taha: na hanga ana ratou: i toku taha ano hoki ko te kaiwhakatangi tetere.
19 And Y seide to the principal men, and magistratis, and to the tothir part of the comyn puple, The werk is greet and brood, and we ben departid fer in the wal, oon from anothir;
I mea ano ahau ki nga rangatira, ki nga tangata nunui, ki era atu ano o te iwi, He nui te mahi, he tatahi, kua tohatoha noa atu ano tatou ki te taiepa, matara noa tetahi i tetahi;
20 in what euer place ye heren the sown of the trumpe, renne ye togidere thidur to vs; for oure God schal fiyte for vs.
Ko te wahi e rongo ai koutou i te tangi o te tetere, me huihui ki a matou ki reira: ma to tatou Atua ta tatou pakanga.
21 And we `vs silf schal make the werk, and the half part of vs holde speris, fro `the stiyng of the moreutid til that sterris go out.
Heoi mahia ana e matou te mahi; na ko tetahi tanga ki te pupuri tao, no te haukanga ake ano o te ata a puta noa nga whetu.
22 And `in that tyme Y seide to the puple, Ech man with his child dwelle in the myddil of Jerusalem, and whilis be to vs `bi nyyt and dai to worche.
I mea ano ahau ki te iwi i taua wa, Kia moe tenei tangata, tenei tangata, me tana pononga ano, ki roto ki Hiruharama, a ka ai ratou hei kaitiaki mo tatou i te po, hei mahi ano i te awatea.
23 But Y, and my britheren, and my keperis, and children, that weren after me, diden not of oure clothis; ech man was maad nakid oneli to waischyng.
Heoi ko ahau, ko oku teina, ko aku pononga, me nga kaitiaki i whai mai nei i ahau, kihai i whakarerea atu o matou kakahu. Mau tonu te patu a tenei, a tenei, i te haerenga ki te wai.
