< Ihaia 11 >
1 A tera e puta ake he wana i te take i a Hehe, a ka whai hua tetahi peka e tupu ake i roto i ona pakiaka:
But there shall come forth a shoot from the stock of Jesse, —And, a sprout from his roots, shall bear fruit;
2 Ka noho hoki te wairua o Ihowa ki runga ki a ia, te wairua o te whakaaro nui, o te matauranga, te wairua o te whakatakoto whakaaro, o te kaha, te wairua o te mohio, o te wehi ki a Ihowa;
And the spirit of Yahweh shall rest upon him, —The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of knowledge and reverence of Yahweh;
3 A, ko tana e ahuareka ai ko te wehi ki a Ihowa: e kore ano ia e whakawa i runga i ta ona kanohi e kite ai, e kore ano e whakaaro ki ta ona taringa e rongo ai, ina riria e ia te he.
So will he find fragrance, in the reverence of Yahweh, And not, by the sight of his eyes, will he judge, Nor by the hearing of his ears, will he decide;
4 Engari ka whakawa ia mo nga rawakore i runga i te tika; i runga ano i te tika tona riri i te he, he whakaaro nona ki te hunga mahaki o te whenua; he whiu na tona mangai tana patu mo te whenua, ka whakamatea ano e ia te tangata kino ki te manawa o ona ngutu.
But he will judge with righteousness! them who are poor, And decide with equity! for the oppressed of the land, —And he will smite the land With the sceptre of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips, will he slay the lawless one;
5 A hei whitiki te tika mo tona hope, hei whitiki ano te pono mo ona whatumanawa.
And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, —And faithfulness the girdle of his reins;
6 Ka noho tahi ano te wuruhi raua ko te reme, ka takoto tahi te reparo raua ko te kuao koati; ko te kuao kau, ko te kuao raiona, ko te mea momona, kotahi ano ropu; a ma te tamaiti iti ratou e arahi.
And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, And, the leopard, with the kid, shall lie down, —And the calf and the young lion and the fatling—together, With, a little child, leading them;
7 A ka kai te kau raua ko te pea; ka takoto tahi ano hoki a raua kuao: a ka rite te raiona ki te kau, ka kai i te kakau witi.
And the cow, with the bear shall find pasture, Together, shall their young ones, lie down, —And, the lion, like the ox, shall eat straw;
8 Ka takaro hoki te tamaiti ngote u i runga i te rua o te ahipi, a ka pa atu te ringa o te tamaiti kua whakamutua te kai u ki te nohoanga o te neke.
And the sucking child shall caress over the hole of the asp, Yea over the viper’s den, hath the weaned child stretched out his hand:
9 E kore ratou e tukino, e kore ano e whakamate puta noa i toku maunga tapu: no te mea ka kapi te whenua i te matauranga ki a Ihowa, ano ko nga wai e taupoko nei i te moana.
They shall not hurt—nor destroy, in all my holy mountain, —For filled is the land with the knowledge of Yahweh, As the waters, to the sea, form a covering.
10 Na i taua ra ko tetahi pakiaka o Hehe, ka tu hei kara ki nga iwi, ka rapua mai e nga tauiwi; ko tona okiokinga hoki, kororia rawa.
And there shall come to be, in that day, A root of Jesse, which shall be standing as an ensign of peoples, Unto him, shall nations seek, —And, his resting-place, shall be, glorious.
11 I taua ra ka anga ano te ringa o te Ariki, a ka tuaruatia te whakahoki mai o nga morehu o tana iwi e mahue i Ahiria, i Ihipa, i Patoro, i Kuhu, i Erama, i Hinara, i Hamata, i nga motu ano o te moana.
And it shall come to pass in that day, That My Lord will again a second time set his hand, to possess himself of the remnant of his people, —who shall be left—from Assyria and from Egypt and from Pathros and from Ethiopia and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the Coastlands of the sea;
12 Ka whakaturia ano e ia he kara ki nga iwi, a ka huihuia mai te hunga o Iharaira i peia atu, ka whakaminea mai ano nga mea o Hura i marara atu, i nga pito e wha o te whenua.
And he will lift up a standard to the nations, And will gather the outcasts of Israel, —And the dispersed of Judah, will he collect, From the four corners of the earth.
13 Ka haere atu hoki te hae o Eparaima, ka hatepea atu ano hoki nga hoariri o Hura: e kore a Eparaima e hae ki a Hura, e kore ano a Hura e whakatoi ki a Eparaima.
And the envy of Ephraim shall be removed, And the vexatious doings of Judah, shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah, shall not vex Ephraim;
14 Engari ka rere iho ratou i runga i te pokohiwi o nga Pirihitini i te taha ki te hauauru, ka pahuatia ngatahitia e ratou te hunga o te rawhiti; ka pa o ratou ringa ki runga ki a Eroma raua ko Moapa; ka whakarongo hoki nga tama a Amona ki a ratou.
But they shall fly on the wing of the Philistines in the west, Together, shall they make prey of the sons of the east, —On Edom and Moab, putting forth their hand, With the sons of Ammon hearkening unto them.
15 A ka whakangaromia rawatia e Ihowa te arero o te moana i Ihipa; a he hau hunuhunu tana e ruru ai i tona ringa ki runga ki te awa, e patu ai kia whitu ona rerenga, a ka meinga nga tangata kia whiti maroke noa atu.
And Yahweh, will devote to destruction, the gulf of the Egyptian sea, And will brandish his hand against the River ["Euphrates"], in the full force of his spirit, —And will smite it in the seven streams And cause a marching through in sandals,
16 A ka takoto he ara haerenga mai i Ahiria mo nga morehu o tana iwi ka mahue; ka rite ano ki to Iharaira i te ra i haere mai ai ia i te whenua o Ihipa.
So shall there be a highway for the remnant of his people who shall be left out of Assyria, —Like as it was to Israel, in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt!
