Ihaia 27
1 I taua ra ka patua e Ihowa ki tana hoari maro, hoari nui, hoari kaha a Rewiatana, te nakahi tere, a Rewiatana, te nakahi korohape; ka tukitukia hoki e ia te tarakona i te moana.
In that day, the LORD with his fierce and great and mighty sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the twisted serpent; and he will kill the serpent that is in the sea.
2 I taua ra: He mara waina, waiata atu koutou ki reira.
In that day, sing to her, "A pleasant vineyard.
3 Ko ahau, ko Ihowa hei tiaki i a ia; hono tonu taku whakamakuku; ka tiakina e ahau i te po, i te ao, kei tukinotia.
I, the LORD, am its keeper. I will water it every moment. Lest anyone damage it, I will keep it night and day.
4 Kahore he riri i roto i ahau. He kore noa no nga tataramoa, no nga tumatkauru hei whawhai mai ki ahau! Penei kua haere tonu atu ahau ki runga ki a ratou, tahuna ngatahitia ake e ahau.
Wrath is not in me, but if I should find briers and thorns, I would do battle. I would march on them and I would burn them together.
5 Kia hopukia mai ranei e ia toku kaha, kia houhia ai te rongo ki ahau; ae ra, kia houhia ano tana rongo ki ahau.
Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me."
6 A nga ra e haere mai nei ka whai pakiaka nga uri o Hakopa; ka whai puawai, ka kopuku a Iharaira: a ka kapi i a ratou te mata o te ao katoa i te hua.
In days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will blossom and bud. They will fill the surface of the world with fruit.
7 I rite ranei tana patu i a ia ki tana patunga i ona kaipatu? i rite ranei tona whakamatenga ki te whakamatenga o ana i whakamate ai?
Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or have they been killed as their killers were killed?
8 He mea mehua tau ngangare ki a ia i tona tukunga atu e koe; kawhakina ana ia e ia ki tana hau pakaha i te ra o te marangai.
In measure, when you send them away, you contend with them. He has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Na ko tenei hei muru i te he o Hakopa; ko nga hua katoa enei o te tahinga i tona hara; kia meinga e ia nga kohatu katoa o te aata kia rite ki te kohatu taioma, kurukuru rawa, a kore ake nga Aherimi me nga whakapakoko e ara ake ake.
Therefore, by this the iniquity of Jacob will be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the incense altars shall rise no more.
10 Kei te mokemoke hoki te pa taiepa, he kainga mahue, he mea whakarere, he pera i te koraha: kai ana te kuao kau i reira, takoto ana i reira, pau ake i a ia ona manga.
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness. The calf will feed there, and there he will lie down, and consume its branches.
11 Ka memenge ona peka, ka whatiia atu: ka haere mai nga wahine, tahuna ana e ratou ki te ahi; ehara hoki ia i te iwi e whai mahara ana: no reira e kore ratou e tohungia e to ratou kaihanga, e kore ano to ratou kaiwhakaahua e aroha ki a ratou.
When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.
12 I taua ra ka taia nga hua e Ihowa i te waipuke o te awa, a tae noa ki te awa o Ihipa, a ka kohikohia takitahitia koutou, e nga tama a Iharaira.
It will happen in that day, that the LORD will thresh from the flowing stream of the Perath to the Wadi of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.
13 I taua ra ka whakatangihia he tetere nui; a ka haere mai te hunga i tata te ngaro i te whenua o Ahiria, me te hunga i te whenua o Ihipa i peia atu; a ka koropiko ratou ki a Ihowa ki te maunga tapu, ki Hiurharama.
It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
