< Amoho 6 >

1 Aue, te mate mo te hunga e noho humarie ana i Hiona, mo te hunga hoki e whakawhirinaki ana ki te maunga o Hamaria, nga tangata whai ingoa o te tuatahi o nga iwi, i tae atu nei te whare o Iharaira ki a ratou.
Wo to you, that ben ful of richessis in Sion, and tristen in the hil of Samarie, ye principal men, the heedis of puplis, that goen proudli in to the hous of Israel.
2 Haere tonu ki Karane titiro ai, haere atu i reira ki Hamata nui; haere tonu atu ki Kata o nga Pirihitini: he pai atu ranei i enei kingitanga? nui atu ranei to ratou rohe i to koutou rohe?
Go ye in to Calamye, and se ye, and go ye fro thennus in to Emath the greet; and go ye doun in to Geth of Palestyns, and to alle the beste rewmes of hem, if her terme be broddere than youre terme.
3 E te hunga e whakamatara atu na i te ra kino, e mea na i te nohoanga o te tutu kia tata mai;
And ye ben departid in to yuel dai, and neiyen to the seete of wickidnesse;
4 E takoto na i runga i te moenga rei, e wharoro na i runga i o ratou takotoranga, e kai na i nga reme o te kahui, i nga kuao kau o waenganui i te turanga kau;
and ye slepen in beddis of yuer, and doen letcherie in youre beddis; and ye eten a lomb of the flok, and calues of the myddil of droue;
5 E waiata na i nga waiata poauau ki te rangi hatere; e whakaaroa ana hoki e ratou nga mea whakatangi, e pera ana me Rawiri;
and ye syngen at vois of sautree. As Dauid thei gessiden hem for to haue instrumentis of song, and drynken wyn in viols;
6 E inu ana i te waina o nga peihana, a e whakawahi ana i a ratou ki nga hinu pai rawa; kahore ia o ratou pouri mo te aitua o Hohepa.
and with beste oynement thei weren anoynted; and in no thing thei hadden compassioun on the sorewe, ether defoulyng, of Joseph.
7 Na aianei ko ratou ki mua ka whakaraua atu o te hunga e whakaraua ana, a ka kore te hakari a te hunga i wharoro ra.
Wherfor now thei schulen passe in the heed of men passynge ouer, and the doyng of men doynge letcherie schal be don awei.
8 Kua oatitia te Ariki, a Ihowa, e ia ano, e ai ta Ihowa, ta te Atua o nga mano, E whakarihariha ana ahau ki ta Hakopa e whakai na, e kino ana ki ona whare kingi: mo reira ka tukua atu e ahau te pa me nga mea i roto.
The Lord God swoor in his soule, seith the Lord God of oostis, Y wlate the pride of Jacob, and Y hate the housis of hym, and Y schal bitake the citee with hise dwelleris;
9 Na, ki te toe nga tangata kotahi tekau i roto i te whare kotahi, ka mate ratou.
that if ten men ben left in oon hous, and thei schulen die.
10 A, ki te tangohia ake tetahi e tona matua keke, ara e te kaitahu mona, kia maua mai ai nga wheua i roto i te whare, a ka mea ia ki te tangata i roto rawa i te whare, He tangata ano ranei tena kei a koe na? a ka mea ia, Kahore; katahi ia ka mea, Whakarongoa; e kore hoki tatou e whakahua i te ingoa o Ihowa.
And his neiybore schal take hym, and schal brenne hym, that he bere out boonys of the hous. And he schal seie to hym, that is in the priuy places of the hous, Whether ther is yit anentis thee? And he schal answer, An ende is. And he schal seie to hym, Be thou stille, and thenke thou not on the name of the Lord.
11 No te mea, nana, kei te whakahau a Ihowa, a ka patua te whare nui ki nga pakaru, te whare iti ki nga ngatata.
For lo! the Lord schal comaunde, and schal smyte the grettere hous with fallyngis, and the lesse hous with brekyngis.
12 E rere ranei te hoiho i runga i te kamaka? e parautia ranei a reira ki te kau? i whakaputaina ketia ai e koutou te whakawa hei au, nga hua hoki o te tika hei taru kawa.
Whether horsis moun renne in stoonys, ether it mai be eerid with wielde oxun? For ye turneden doom in to bitternesse, and the fruyt of riytfulnesse in to wermod.
13 E koa na hoki koutou ki te kahore noa iho, e mea na, He teka ianei kua riro mai he haona i a tatou, he mea na to tatou uaua?
And ye ben glad in nouyt, and ye seien, Whether not in oure strengthe we token to vs hornes?
14 Otiia, nana, ka ara i ahau tetahi iwi ki a koutou, e te whare o Iharaira, e ai ta Ihowa, ta te Atua o nga mano, a ka whakatupuria kinotia koutou e ratou i te haerenga atu ki Hamata a tae noa ki te awa o te Arapa.
Lo! Y schal reise on you, the hous of Israel, seith the Lord God of oostis, a folc; and it schal al to-breke you fro entre of Emath `til to the streem of desert.
