Raniera 9
1 I te tuatahi o nga tau o Tariuha tama a Ahahueruha, no nga uri o nga Meri, i kingi nei ia ki te kingitanga o nga Karari;
“In the first year of Darius, son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who has been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,
2 I tona tau tuatahi i kingi ai, ka kitea e ahau, e Raniera, ki nga pukapuka te maha o nga tau i puta mai ai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia poropiti, hei whakatutukitanga i te ururua o Hiruharama, ara ka tae ki te whitu tekau tau.
in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, have understood by scrolls the number of the years (in that a word of YHWH has been to Jeremiah the prophet), concerning the fulfilling of the desolations of Jerusalem—seventy years;
3 Na ka anga toku mata ki te Ariki, ki te Atua; rapua ana e ahau i runga i te karakia, i te inoi, i te nohopuku, i te kakahu taratara, i te pungarehu.
and I set my face toward the Lord God, to seek [by] prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
4 Na ka inoi atu ahau ki te Ariki, ki toku Atua, ka whaki, ka mea, E te Ariki, e te Atua nui, e te atua whakamataku, e pupuri nei i te kawenata, i te atawhai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia, e pupuri ana i ana whakahau;
And I pray to my God YHWH, and confess, and say: Ah, now, O Lord God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and the kindness to those loving Him and to those keeping His commands;
5 Kua hara matou, kua poka ke, kua mahi i te kino, kua whakakeke hoki, i a matou i tahuri ke nei i au whakahau, i au tikanga.
we have sinned, and done perversely, and done wickedly, and rebelled, to turn aside from Your commands, and from Your judgments:
6 Kihai ano matou i whakarongo ki au pononga, ki nga poropiti i korero nei i runga i tou ingoa ki o matou kingi, ki o matou rangatira, ki o matou matua, ki te iwi katoa ano o te whenua.
and we have not listened to Your servants, the prophets, who have spoken in Your Name to our kings, our heads, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 Kei a koe, e te Ariki, te tika; kei a matou ia te whakama o te mata, koia ano tenei inaianei; kei nga tangata ano o Hura, kei nga tangata o Hiruharama, kei a Iharaira katoa, kei nga mea e tata ana, kei nga mea i tawhiti, i nga whenua katoa i peia atu ai ratou e koe, mo to ratou he i he ai ratou ki a koe.
To You, O Lord, [is] the righteousness, and to us the shame of face, as [at] this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, in all the lands to where You have driven them, in their trespass that they have trespassed against You.
8 E te Ariki, kei a matou nei ko te whakama o te mata, kei o matou kingi hoki, kei o matou rangatira, kei o matou matua hoki, no te mea i hara matou ki a koe.
O Lord, to us [is] the shame of face, to our kings, to our heads, and to our fathers, in that we have sinned against You.
9 Na te Ariki, na to matou Atua, nga mahi tohu me nga murunga hara, ko matou ia kua whakakeke ki a ia;
To the Lord our God [are] the mercies and the forgivenesses, for we have rebelled against Him,
10 Kihai ano i whakarongo ki te reo o Ihowa, o to matou Atua, kihai i haere i ana ture i whakatakotoria e ia, ara e ana pononga, e nga poropiti, ki to matou aroaro.
and have not listened to the voice of our God YHWH, to walk in His laws, that He has set before us by the hand of His servants the prophets;
11 Ae ra, kua takahia e Iharaira katoa tau ture, kua whakarerea e ratou, kia kore ai ratou e rongo ki tou reo; koia i ringihia ai te kanga ki runga ki a matou, me te oati i tuhituhia ki te ture a Mohi pononga a te Atua; kua hara hoki matou ki a ia.
and all Israel has transgressed Your law, to turn aside so as not to listen to Your voice; and poured on us is the execration, and the oath, that is written in the Law of Moses, servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.
12 Na kua pumau i a ia ana kupu i korerotia e ia mo matou, mo o matou kaiwhakawa i whakarite nei i o matou whakawa, na te kino nui hoki kua kawea mai nei e ia ki runga ki a matou: kahore hoki he rite mo te mea kua meatia nei ki Hiruharama i raro i te rangi katoa.
And He confirms His words that He has spoken against us, and against our judges who have judged us, to bring great calamity on us, in that it has not been done under the whole heavens as it has been done in Jerusalem,
13 Ka rite ki te mea i tuhituhia ki te ture a Mohi tenei kino katoa kua tae mai nei ki a matou: heoi kahore a matou inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to matou Atua, mo matou kia tahuri atu i o matou kino, kia matau hoki ki tou pono.
as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil has come on us, and we have not appeased the face of our God YHWH to turn back from our iniquities, and to act wisely in Your truth.
14 Na reira te kino i tirotirohia mai ai e Ihowa, a kawea mai ana e ia ki runga ki a matou; tika tonu hoki ta Ihowa, ta to matou Atua, i ana mahi katoa e mahia ana e ia, a kihai matou i whakarongo ki tona reo.
And YHWH watches for the evil, and brings it on us, for our God YHWH is righteous concerning all His works that He has done, and we have not listened to His voice.
15 Na aianei, e te Ariki, e to matou Atua, nau nei i kawe mai tau iwi i te whenua o Ihipa i runga i te ringa kaha, a mahia ana e koe he ingoa mou, penei ano me tenei inaianei; hara ana matou, mahi ana i te kino.
And now, O Lord our God, who has brought forth Your people from the land of Egypt by a strong hand, and makes for Yourself a name as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 E te Ariki, kia rite ki au mahi tika katoa, whakatahuritia atu tou riri, tou weriweri, i tau pa, i Hiruharama, i tou maunga tapu: he hara nei hoki no matou, he kino no o matou matua i ingoa kino ai a Hiruharama me tau iwi ki te hunga katoa i tet ahi taha o matou, i tetahi taha.
O Lord, according to all Your righteous acts, please let Your anger and Your fury turn back from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain, for by our sins, and by the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people [are] for a reproach to all our neighbors;
17 Na whakarongo aianei, e to matou Atua, ki te inoi a tau pononga, ki ana tangi, kia marama ano tou mata ki tou wahi tapu kua ururua nei, me whakaaro ki te Ariki.
and now, listen, O our God, to the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that [is] desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
18 Kia anga mai, e toku Atua, tou taringa, whakarongo hoki, titiro mai hoki ou kanohi, kia kitea ai e koe o matou matenga, me te pa ano kua huaina nei tou ingoa mo reira: ehara hoki i te mea he tika no matou i tukua atu ai e matou a matou inoi ki t ou aroaro, engari he nui no au mahi tohu.
Incline, O my God, Your ear, and hear, open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Your Name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before You, but for Your mercies that [are] many.
19 Whakarongo, e te Ariki; e te Ariki, murua te he; e te Ariki, whakarongo mai, e mahi; kaua e whakaroa; kia mahara ano ki a koe, e toku Atua, kua oti hoki tou ingoa te whakahua mo tau pa, mo tau iwi.
O Lord, hear, O Lord, forgive; O Lord, attend and do; do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God, for Your Name is called on Your city, and on Your people.
20 Na, i ahau e korero ana, e karakia ana, e whaki ana i toku hara, i te hara ano o toku iwi, o Iharaira, e tuku ana i taku inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o toku Atua, mo te maunga tapu o toku Atua;
And while I am speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and causing my supplication to fall before my God YHWH, for the holy mountain of my God,
21 Ae ra, i ahau e korero ana, e karakia ana, na ko Kapariera, ko te tangata i kitea e ahau i te whakakitenga i te timatanga, ko tona rere he mea whakahohoro, kua pa mai ki ahau i te wa o to te ahiahi whakahere.
indeed, while I am speaking in prayer, then that one Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the commencement, being caused to fly swiftly, is coming to me at the time of the evening present.
22 Na ka ako ia i ahau, ka korero ki ahau, ka mea, E Raniera, kua puta mai nei ahau kia mohio ai koe, kia matau ai.
And he gives understanding, and speaks with me, and says, O Daniel, now I have come forth to cause you to consider understanding wisely;
23 I te timatanga o au inoi i puta te kupu, a kua tae mai ahau ki te whakaatu; e arohaina nuitia ana hoki koe, na kia mohio koe ki te mea, whakaaroa ano te kite.
at the commencement of your supplications the word has come forth, and I have come to declare [it], for you [are] greatly desired, and understand concerning the matter, and consider concerning the appearance.
24 E whitu tekau nga wiki kua oti te whakarite mo tou iwi, mo tou pa tapu hoki, e whakaotia ai te poka ke, e whakamutua ai nga hara, e oti ai te whakamarie mo te kino, e kawea mai ai te tika mau tonu, e hiritia ai te kite, me te poropititanga, e wh akawahia ai te Tapu Rawa.
Seventy periods of seven are determined for your people and for your holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in continuous righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.
25 Na kia mohio, a kia marama hoki, e whitu nga wiki o te putanga o te kupu, kia whakahoutia, kia hanga a Hiruharama a tae noa ki te mea i whakawahia, ki te rangatira: a, e ono tekau ma rua nga wiki, ka oti ano te hanga, me te waharoa, me te awaker i, ahakoa i roto i nga wa raruraru.
And you know, and consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader [is] seven periods of seven, and sixty-two periods of seven: the broad place has been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.
26 A, ka taka aua wiki e ono tekau ma rua, ka hatepea atu te mea i whakawahia, a kahore he mea mana; a ka whakangaromia te pa me te wahi tapu e te iwi o te rangatira ka haere mai nei; a he waipuke kei tona mutunga, a he whawhai taea noatia te mutun ga; kua takoto hoki nga whakangaromanga.
And after the sixty-two periods of seven, Messiah is cut off, but not for Himself, and the people of the leader who is coming destroy the city and the holy place; and its end [is] with a flood, and until the end [is] war, [and] desolations [are] determined.
27 A ka hanga e ia he kawenata pumau ki etahi tokomaha, kotahi te wiki; ka tae ki te hawhe o te wiki e meinga ana e ia kia mutu te patunga tapu me te whakahere; na ka haere mai tetahi i runga i te parirau o nga mea whakarihariha, mana e whakaururua; a ka ringihia he riri ki runga ki te kaiwhakangaro, a taea rawatia ano te whakaotinga, he mea kua oti te whakarite.
And he has strengthened a covenant with many [for] one period of seven, and [in] the midst of the period of seven he causes sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even until the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.”
