< Ihaia 60 >
1 E ara, kia marama; kua tae mai hoki tou marama, kua whiti te kororia o Ihowa ki a koe.
Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of Yhwh is risen upon thee.
2 Tera hoki e hipokina te whenua e te pouri, nga iwi e te pouri kerekere; ka whiti ia a Ihowa ki a koe, ka kitea hoki ki a koe tona kororia.
For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: But Yhwh shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 A ka haere mai nga tauiwi ki tou marama, nga kingi ki ou hihi, ina whiti mai.
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4 Kia ara ou kanohi i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, titiro atu hoki; kei te huihui ratou katoa, e haere mai ana ki a koe; ka haere mai au tama i tawhiti, ka hikitia hoki au tamahine ki nga ringa.
Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.
5 Ka kite koe i reira, ka whakamaramatia, ka wehi ano tou ngakau, ka nui; no te mea ka tahuri ki a koe nga mea maha o te moana, ka tae ano ki a koe nga taonga o nga tauiwi.
Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
6 Ka kapi koe i te kamera, he tini, i nga kamera tere o Miriana, o Epa; ka haere mai era katoa i Hepa: me te mau mai ano i te koura, i te whakakakara; ka kauwhautia ano e ratou nga whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa.
The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of Yhwh.
7 Ka huihuia nga hipi katoa o Kerara ki a koe, hei kaimahi mau nga hipi toa o Nepaiota; ka manakohia ratou ina eke ki runga ki taku aata, a ka whakakororiatia e ahau te whare o toku kororia.
All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.
8 Ko wai enei e rere nei ano he kapua, me he kukupa nei, ki o ratou matapihi?
Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?
9 He pono ka tatari nga motu ki ahau, me nga kaipuke o Tarahihi i te tuatahi, ki te kawe mai i au tama i tawhiti: i a ratou, i ta ratou hiriwa, i ta ratou koura hoki, hei mea ki te ingoa o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, no te mea ka oti koe te whakakororia e ia.
Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of Yhwh thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
10 Ka hanga ano ou taiepa e nga tangata ke, ko o ratou kingi ano hei kaimahi mau: he riri hoki noku i patu ai ahau i a koe, he manako ia naku i atawhai ai ahau i a koe.
And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.
11 Ka tuwhera tonu ano ou kuwaha: e kore e tutakina i te ao, i te po, kia kawea mai ai nga taonga o nga tauiwi ki a koe, kia arahina mai ai hoki o ratou kingi me ratou.
Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.
12 Ko te iwi hoki, me te kingitanga, e kore e mahi ki a koe, ka ngaro; ina, ka moti rawa aua iwi.
For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
13 Ka tae mai te kororia o Repanona ki a koe, te kauri, te rimu, me te ake ngatahi hei whakapaipai, mo te wahi i toku kainga tapu, a ka whakakororiatia e ahau te wahi o oku waewae.
The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
14 Ka haere mai ano, ka piko ki a koe nga tama a ou kaitukino, a ko te hunga katoa i whakahawea ki a koe, ka piko ki nga kapu o ou waewae; a ka kiia koe, Ko te pa o Ihowa, Ko te Hiona o te Mea Tapu o Iharaira.
The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of Yhwh, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 He mea whakarere nei koe i mua, he mea i kinongia, kahore hoki tetahi kia haere i waenganui i a koe, na ka meinga koe e ahau hei mea nui e mau tonu ana, he kaonga ngakau ki nga whakatupuranga maha.
Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
16 Ka ngotea ano e koe te waiu o nga tauiwi, ka ngotea te u o nga kingi: a ka mohio koe ko ahau, ko Ihowa, tou kaiwhakaora, tou kaihoko, te Mea Nui o Hakaopa.
Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I Yhwh am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
17 Ko te parahi ka whakaputaia ketia e ahau hei koura, ko te rino ka whakaputaia ketia hei hiriwa, ka puta ke te rakau hei parahi, ka puta ke nga kohatu hei rino; ko ou kaitohutohu ka meinga he rongo e mau ana, ko ou kaiakiaki he tika.
For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine exactors righteousness.
18 E kore e rangona i muri te mahi nanakia ki tou whenua; te whakamoti te wawahi, ki ou rohe; engari ka kiia, ou taiepa, ko te Whakaoranga, ou kuwaha ko te Whakamoemiti.
Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
19 E kore te ra e waiho i muri hei whakamarama mou i te awatea; na, ko te marama e tiaho nei, e kore tera e whakamarama i a koe; ko Ihowa hoki hei whakamarama mou ake ake, ko tou Atua hoki hei whakakororia i a koe.
The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but Yhwh shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
20 Heoi ano hekenga o tou ra, e kore ano tou marama e pewa; no te mea ko Ihowa hei whakamarama pumau mou, a ka mutu nga ra o tou tangihanga.
Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for Yhwh shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
21 Ko tou iwi hoki, tika katoa, ka pumau tonu ki a ratou te whenua; he peka whakato naku, he mahi na oku ringa, kia whai kororia ai ahau.
Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22 To te mea nohinohi putanga ake, he mano, to te mea iti, he iwi kaha: maku, ma Ihowa, e whakahohoro i tona wa e rite ai.
A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I Yhwh will hasten it in his time.
