< Nehemiah 1 >
1 The wordis of Neemye, the sone of Helchie. And it was doon in the monethe Casleu, in the twentithe yeer, and Y was in the castel Susis;
Ko nga kupu a Nehemia tama a Hakaria. Na, i te marama Kihireu, i te rua tekau o nga tau, i ahau i Huhana, i te whare kingi,
2 and Ananye, oon of my britheren, cam to me, he and men of Juda; and Y axide hem of the Jewis, that weren left, and weren alyue of the caitifte, and of Jerusalem.
Ka tae mai a Hanani, tetahi o oku teina, ratou ko etahi tangata o Hura; a ka ui ahau ki a ratou ki nga Hurai i mawhiti, i mahue o nga whakarau, ki Hiruharama hoki.
3 And thei seiden to me, Thei that `dwelliden, and ben left of the caitifte there in the prouynce, ben in greet turment, and in schenship; and the wal of Jerusalem is destried, and the yatis therof ben brent with fier.
A ka mea ratou ki ahau, Ko nga oranga i mahue o nga whakarau i reira i taua kawanatanga he nui te he, te whakahaweatia: kua pakaru hoki te taiepa o Hiruharama, a kua wera ona keti i te ahi.
4 And whanne Y hadde herd siche wordis, Y sat and wepte, and morenede many daies, and Y fastide, and preiede bifor the face of God of heuene;
A, no toku rongonga i enei kupu, ka noho ahau, ka tangi, ka pouri hoki a taka noa etahi ra; na nohopuku ana ahau, inoi ana hoki ki te aroaro o te Atua o nga rangi,
5 and Y seide, Y biseche, Lord God of heuene, strong, greet, and ferdful, which kepist couenaunt and merci with hem, that louen thee, and kepen thin heestis;
A ka mea ahau, Aue, e Ihowa, e te Atua o te rangi, ko te Atua nui ia e wehingia ana, e pupuri ana i te kawenata, i te atawhai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia, e pupuri ana i ana whakahau:
6 thin eere be maad herknynge, and thin iyen openyd, that thou here the preier of thi seruaunt, bi which Y preie bifor thee `to dai, bi nyyt and dai, for the sones of Israel, thi seruauntis, and `Y knouleche for the synnes of the sones of Israel, bi which thei han synned to thee; bothe Y and the hows of my fadir han synned; we weren disseyued bi vanyte,
Tena, kia tahuri mai tou taringa, kia titiro mai ano ou kanohi, kia whakarongo mai ai koe ki te inoi a tau pononga, e inoi atu nei ki tou aroaro i te ao, i te po, mo au pononga, mo nga tama a Iharaira, i ahau e whaki nei i nga hara o nga tama a I haraira i hara ai matou ki a koe; ae ra, kua hara ahau me te whare o toku papa.
7 and we `kepten not `thi comaundement, and cerymonyes, and domes, which thou comaundidist to Moises, thi seruaunt.
He rawa ta matou mahi ki a koe, kihai hoki i pupuri i nga whakahau, i nga tikanga, i nga whakaritenga i whakahaua e koe ki tau pononga ki a Mohi.
8 Haue mynde of the word, which thou comaundidist to thi seruaunt Moises, and seidist, Whanne ye han trespassid, Y schal scatere you in to puplis;
Tena, maharatia te kupu i whakahaua e koe ki tau pononga, ki a Mohi, i mea ra koe, Ki te poka ke ta koutou, ka whakamararatia atu koutou e ahau ki roto ki nga iwi;
9 and if ye turnen ayen to me, that ye kepe myn heestis, and do tho, yhe, thouy ye ben led awei to the fertheste thingis of heuene, fro thennus Y schal gadere you togidere, and Y schal brynge you in to the place, which Y chees, that my name schulde dwelle there.
Otiia ki te tahuri mai ano koutou ki ahau, a ka pupuri, ka mahi i aku whakahau, ahakoa i peia etahi o koutou ki te pito whakamutunga o te rangi, ka kohikohia mai ratou e ahau i reira, ka kawea mai ano ki te wahi i whiriwhiria e ahau kia noho toku ingoa ki reira.
10 And we ben thi seruauntis, and thi puple, whiche thou `ayen bouytist in thi greet strengthe, and in thi strong hond.
Na ko au pononga enei, ko tau iwi i hokona e koe, ara e tou kaha nui, e tou ringa kaha.
11 Lord, Y biseche, `thin eere be ententif to the preier of thi seruaunt, and to the preier of thi seruauntis, that wolen drede thi name; and dresse thi seruaunt to dai, and yiue thou merci to him bifor this man. For Y was the boteler of the kyng.
Tena, e te Ariki, tahuri mai tou taringa ki te inoi a tau pononga, ki te inoi hoki a au pononga e mea nei kia wehi i tou ingoa: kia tika ra ta tau pononga aianei, homai hoki ki a ia kia atawhaitia e tenei tangata. Ko ahau hoki te kaiwhakainu a t e kingi.
