Ihaia 14
1 No te mea ka aroha a Ihowa ki a Hakopa, ka whiriwhiria ano a Iharaira e ia; ka meinga hoki ratou kia ata noho ki to ratou ake oneone; ka piri ano te tangata ke ki a ratou, ka uru ano hoki ki roto ki te whare o Hakopa.
For YHWH loves Jacob, And has fixed again on Israel, And given them rest on their own land, And the sojourner has been joined to them, And they have been admitted to the house of Jacob.
2 E tango ano nga iwi i a ratou, e kawe i a ratou ki to ratou wahi, riro tonu iho ratou i te whare o Iharaira hei pononga tane, hei pononga wahine i te oneone a Ihowa: a hei whakarau mo ratou o ratou kaiwhakarau, ko ratou ano hei rangatira mo o rat ou kaitukino.
And peoples have taken them, And have brought them to their place, And the house of Israel has inherited them, On the land of YHWH, For menservants and for maidservants, And they have been captors of their captors, And have ruled over their exactors.
3 Na, i te ra e meinga ai koe e Ihowa kia okioki i tou pouri, i tou pawera, i te mahi pakeke ano hoki i whakamahia ai koe,
And it has come to pass, In the day of YHWH’s giving rest to you, From your grief, and from your trouble, And from the sharp bondage, That has been served on you,
4 Ko reira maranga ai tenei pepeha au mo te kingi o Papurona, ka mea hoki koe, Anana! mutu pu ta te kaitukino, mutu pu ta te pa koura!
That you have taken up this allegory Concerning the king of Babylon, and said, “How the exactor has ceased,
5 Whati ana i a Ihowa te tokotoko o te hunga kino, te hepeta o nga kingi;
The golden one has ceased. YHWH has broken the staff of the wicked, The scepter of rulers.
6 Nana i patu nga iwi, me te riri, me te patu kihai i tamutu, nana i whakahaere nga iwi i runga i te riri, me te whakatupu kino, kahore he kaiaraarai.
He who is striking peoples in wrath, A striking without intermission, He who is ruling nations in anger, Pursuing without restraint!
7 Kua whai okiokinga, kua ata noho te whenua katoa; pakaru mai ana ta ratou waiata.
At rest—all the earth has been quiet, They have broken forth [into] singing.
8 Ae, kei te koa nga kauri ki a koe, ratou ko nga hita o Repanona, e ki ana, No tou taunga ano ki raro i kore ai te kaitapahi e tae mai ki a matou.
Even firs have rejoiced over you, Cedars of Lebanon, [saying], Since you have lain down, The hewer does not come up against us.
9 Ko te reinga i raro, oho ana i a koe, he tutakitanga ki a koe i tou taenga atu; he meatanga ki a koe i whakaarahia ai e ia nga tupapaku, nga mea nunui o te whenua; maranga ana i a ia nga kingi katoa o nga iwi i runga i o ratou torona. (Sheol h7585)
Sheol beneath has been troubled at you, To meet your coming in, It is waking up Rephaim for you, All chief ones of earth, It has raised up from their thrones All kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Ka korero ratou katoa ki a koe, ka mea, Ko koe ano hoki, kua ngoikore penei me matou? kua rite koe ki a matou?
All of them answer and say to you, Even you have become weak like us! You have become like to us!
11 Kua oti tou kororia te whakahoki iho ki te reinga, me te rangi ano o au hatere: ko te whariki mou ko te kutukutu, ko te hipoki mou ko nga toke. (Sheol h7585)
Your excellence has been brought down to Sheol, The noise of your stringed instruments, The worm has been spread out under you, Indeed, the worm is covering you. (Sheol h7585)
12 Anana! tou takanga iho i te rangi, e Tawera, e te tama a te ata! te tapahanga iho i a koe ki raro, nau nei i tuku nga iwi ki raro!
How you have fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.
13 I mea hoki tou ngakau, Ka piki ahau ki te rangi, ka whakanekehia ake e ahau toku torona ki runga i nga whetu a te Atua, ka noho ano ahau ki te maunga o te whakaminenga, ki nga taha rawa ki te raki.
And you said in your heart: I go up into the heavens, I raise my throne above the stars of God, And I sit on the mountain of meeting in the sides of the north.
14 Ka pikitia e ahau a runga ake o nga wahi tiketike o nga kapua; ka rite ahau ki te Runga Rawa.
I go up above the heights of a thick cloud, I am like to the Most High.
Only—you are brought down to Sheol, To the sides of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Ko te hunga e kite i a koe, matatau tonu ta ratou titiro ki a koe, me ta ratou ata whakaaroaro ano, Ko te tangata ianei tenei i wiri ai te whenua, i ngaueue ai nga rangatiratanga;
Your beholders look to you, they attend to you, Is this the man causing the earth to tremble, Shaking kingdoms?
17 I mea nei i te ao hei koraha, wahia ana e ia ona pa: kihai i tuku i ana herehere ki to ratou wahi?
He has made the world as a wilderness, And he has broken down his cities, He did not open the house of his bound ones.
18 Ko nga kingi katoa o nga iwi, ko ratou katoa, takoto ana i tona whare, i tona whare, i runga i te kororia.
All kings of nations—all of them, Have lain down in glory, each in his house,
19 Ko koe ia he mea maka mai i tou urupa, ano he peka e whakariharihangia ana, he mea whakakakahu ki te hunga i patua, i werohia ki te hoari, e haere ana ki raro ki nga kohatu o te rua; ano he tinana i takatakahia e te waewae.
And you have been cast out of your grave, As an abominable branch, raiment of the slain, Thrust through ones of the sword, Going down to the sons of the pit, As a carcass trodden down.
20 E kore te tanumanga mou e huihuia ki to ratou, mou i whakangaro i tou whenua, i patu i tou iwi: e kore te uri o nga kaimahi i te kino e whai ingoa, ake ake.
You are not united with them in burial, For you have destroyed your land, You have slain your people, The seed of evildoers is not named for all time.
21 Kia tere te patu mo ana tamariki, mo te he o o ratou matua; kei kake, kei riro ano i a ratou te whenua, kei kapi te mata o te ao i o ratou pa.
Prepare slaughter for his sons; Because of the iniquity of their fathers, They do not rise, nor have possessed the land, Nor filled the face of the world [with] cities.
22 Ka whakatika hoki ahau ki a ratou, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano, ka tapahia atu ano e ahau i Papurona te ingoa me te toenga, te tama me te mokopuna, e ai ta Ihowa.
And I have risen up against them,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “And have cut off, in reference to Babylon, Name and remnant, and continuator and successor,” A declaration of YHWH.
23 Ka meinga ano a reira e ahau hei kainga mo te matuku, hei harotoroto wai; ka purumatia ano e ahau ki te puruma o te whakangaromanga, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.
“And have made it for a possession of a hedgehog, And ponds of waters, And swept it with the broom of destruction,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts!
24 Kua oati a Ihowa o nga mano, kua mea, Ina, u tonu taku i whakaaro ai: ko taku i whakatakoto ai, mau tonu;
YHWH of Hosts has sworn, saying, “As I thought—so has it not been? And as I counseled—it stands;
25 Mo te Ahiriana kia whati i ahau ki toku whenua, kia takatakahia ki runga ki oku maunga: ko reira tana ioka marere ai i runga i a ratou; a ka marere tana pikaunga i runga i o ratou pokohiwi.
To break Asshur in My land, And I tread him down on My mountain, And his yoke has turned from off them, Indeed, his burden turns aside from off their shoulder.
26 Ko te whakaaro tenei kei te takoto mo te whenua katoa: ko te ringa ano tenei e totoro atu nei ki nga iwi katoa.
This [is] the counsel that is counseled for all the earth, And this [is] the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
27 Kua takoto hoki i a Ihowa o nga mano, a ma wai e whakataka? kua totoro tona ringa, a ko wai hei mea kia pepeke?
For YHWH of Hosts has purposed, And who makes void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who turns it back?”
28 No te tau i mate ai a Kingi Ahata tenei poropititanga.
In the year of the death of King Ahaz was this burden:
29 Kei koa, e Pirihitia katoa, ki te whatinga o te rakau a te kaiwhiu i a koe: tera hoki e puta ake he neke i roto i te pakiaka o te nakahi, a ko tona hua he nakahi e rere ana me he ahi.
“Do not rejoice, Philistia, all of you, That the rod of your striker has been broken, For from the root of a serpent comes out a viper, And its fruit [is] a flying, burning serpent.
30 Na ka kai nga matamua o nga ware, ka takoto nga rawakore, te ai he wehi; ka whakamatea ano e ahau tou pakiaka ki te hemokai, a ka patua ou morehu.
And the firstborn of the poor have delighted, And the needy lie down in confidence, And I have put to death your root with famine, And it slays your remnant.
31 Aue, e te kuwaha; hamama, e te pa; harotu kau koe, e Pirihitia katoa: e puta mai hoki te paowa i te raki: e kore tetahi e tu ke mai i te wa i whakaritea mona.
Howl, O gate; cry, O city, You are melted, Philistia, all of you, For smoke has come from the north, And there is none alone in his set places.”
32 A he aha te kupu e whakahokia ki nga karere o te iwi? Ina ra, na Ihowa a Hiona i whakatu, a ka ai a reira hei rerenga atu mo nga mea o tana iwi i tukinotia.
And what does one answer the messengers of a nation? That YHWH has founded Zion, And the poor of His people take refuge in it!
