Ihaia 48
1 Whakarongo ki tenei, e te whare o Hakopa, e te hunga kua huaina nei ko Iharaira hei ingoa mo koutou, kua puta ake nei i roto i nga wai o Hura; e whakaoati ana i te ingo o Ihowa, e whakahua ana i te Atua o Iharaira, ehara ia i te mea i runga i te pono, i te tika.
Hear all of you this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 Ki ta ratou karanga hoki, no te pa tapu ratou, e okioki ana hoki ki te Atua o Iharaira; ko Ihowa o nga mano tona ingoa.
For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
3 He mea whakaatu naku nonamata nga mea o mua; ae ra, i puta ano hoki aua mea i toku mangai, he mea korero naku; kitea rawatia ake kua mahia e ahau, kua puta.
I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
4 I mohio hoki ahau he pakeke koe, he uaua rino hoki tou kaki, he parahi tou rae;
Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow brass;
5 Na reira naku i whakaatu ki a koe inamata; kiano i puta kua korerotia e ahau ki a koe: kei ki koe, Na taku whakapakoko ena mahi, he mea whakahau enei na te mea i whaowhaoa e ahau, na te mea i whakarewaina e ahau.
I have even from the beginning declared it to you; before it came to pass I showed it you: lest you should say, Mine idol has done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded them.
6 Kua rongo koe; tirohia tenei katoa: a e kore ianei e whakaaturia e koutou? Kua korerotia nei e ahau ki a koe he mea hou, he mea i muri i tenei wa, he mea huna, kihai i mohiotia e koe;
You have heard, see all this; and will not all of you declare it? I have showed you new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them.
7 He mea hanga nonaianei, kahore hoki inamata: i mua i tenei ra kihai i rangona e koutou; kei ki koe, Nana, i mohiotia e ahau.
They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when you heard them not; lest you should say, Behold, I knew them.
8 Ae ra, kihai koe i rongo, kihai i mohio; ae ra, mai o mua kihai tou taringa i whakapuaretia: i mohio hoki ahau i mahi tinihanga koe, a no te kopu ano koe i huaina ai he poka ke.
Yea, you heard not; yea, you knew not; yea, from that time that your ear was not opened: for I knew that you would deal very treacherously, and were called a transgressor from the womb.
9 Ka whakaaro ahau ki toku ingoa, a ka puhoi toku riri; ka whakaaro ki te whakamoemiti ki ahau, a ka pehi i taku ki a koe, kei hatepea atu koe.
For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for you, that I cut you not off.
10 Kua oti ou para te tahi e ahau, ehara ia i te mea hei hiriwa; he mea whiriwhiri koe naku i roto i te oumu, i te tangi.
Behold, I have refined you, but not with silver; I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.
11 He whakaaro ki ahau, he whakaaro ki ahau, i meatia ai tenei e ahau: kia whakapokea koia toku ingoa? e kore ano toku kororia e hoatu e ahau ki tetahi atu.
For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
12 Whakarongo ki ahau, e Hakopa, e Iharaira, e taku i karanga ai; ko ahau ia, ko ahau te tuatahi, ko ahau ano te mutunga.
Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
13 Ae ra, na toku ringa i whakatakoto nga turanga o te whenua, na toku matau i hora nga rangi; ki te karangatia ratou e ahau, ka tu ngatahi ratou.
Mine hand also has laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand has spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
14 Huihui mai, e koutou katoa, whakarongo hoki; na wai o ratou enei mea i whakaatu? He mea aroha ia na Ihowa; ka oti i a ia tana i pai ai ki Papurona, ka pa ano tona ringa ki nga Karari.
All you, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them has declared these things? The LORD has loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
15 Naku, naku te kupu, ae ra, he mea karanga ia naku, naku ia i kawe mai, ka tika ano i a ia tona ara.
I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
16 Whakatata mai ki ahau, whakarongo ki tenei; ko taku, no te timatanga ra ano ehara i te korero puku: i nga wa o aua mea, i reira ahau; na, inaianei na te Ariki, na Ihowa ahau i unga mai, na tona wairua ano.
Come all of you near unto me, hear all of you this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, has sent me.
17 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a tou kaihoko, a te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, Ko Ihowa ahau, ko tou Atua e whakaako nei i a koe ki te pai mou, e arahi nei i a koe i te ara e haere ai koe.
Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD your God which teaches you to profit, which leads you by the way that you should go.
18 Aue, me i rongo koe ki aku whakahau, ina, kua rite ki te awa te mau o te rongo ki a koe; ko tou tika, koia ano kei nga ngaru o te moana.
O that you had hearkened to my commandments! then had your peace been as a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19 Kua rite ano ou uri ki te onepu, nga whanau o ou whekau ki te kirikiri o reira; ko tona ingoa kihai i hatepea atu, kihai i whakangaromia i toku aroaro.
Your seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of your bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
20 Haere atu i Papurona, e rere i roto i nga Karari; kia waiata te reo i a koutou e whakaatu ana; korerotia tenei, whakapuakina ki te pito o te whenua; ki atu, Kua oti i a Ihowa tana pononga, a Hakopa te hoko.
Go all of you out of Babylon, flee all of you from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare all of you, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say all of you, The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob.
21 Kihai ano ratou i matewai i a ia e arahi ana i a ratou i nga koraha; i meinga e ia te wai mo ratou kia rere i roto i te kamaka: i wahia e ia te kamaka, a pupu mai ana te wai.
And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
22 Kahore he maunga rongo ki te hunga kino, e ai ta Ihowa.
There is no peace, says the LORD, unto the wicked.
