Ihaia 65
1 E rapua ana ahau e te hunga kihai nei i ui ki ahau; e kitea ana ahau e te hunga kihai nei i kimi i ahau: i mea ahau, Tenei ahau, tenei ahau, ki te iwi kihai nei i karangatia toku ingoa ki a ratou.
I am sought out of them that inquired not [for me], I am found of them that sought me not; I have said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
2 Tuwhera tonu oku ringa i te ra roa nei ki te iwi tutu e haere nei i te ara kahore i pai, e whai ana i o ratou whakaaro ake,
I have stretched out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, who walk in a way not good, after their own thoughts;
3 Ki te iwi he whakapataritari tonu nei ta ratou ki ahau ki toku aroaro, he patu whakahere i roto i nga kari, he tahu whakakakara ki runga ki nga aata pereki;
the people that provoke me to anger continually to my face, sacrificing in gardens and burning incense upon the bricks;
4 E noho nei i nga urupa, e moe ana i roto i nga wahi ngaro; e kai ana i te kikokiko poaka, a he hupa no nga mea whakarihariha kei roto i a ratou oko.
who sit down among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things [is in] their vessels;
5 Ko ta ratou kupu, Tu atu, kaua e whakatata ki ahau; he tapu rawa hoki ahau i a koe. He paowa enei ki toku ihu, he ahi e ka ana, a pau noa te ra.
who say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
6 Nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki toku aroaro; e kore ahau e whakarongo puku; ae ra, ka utua e ahau, ka utua ki roto ki o ratou uma,
Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
7 Ara o koutou kino, hui atu ki nga kino o o koutou matua, e ai ta Ihowa, i tahu whakakakara nei ki runga ki nga maunga, i whakaiti nei i ahau i runga i nga pukepuke: mo reira ka matua mehuatia atu e ahau ta ratou mahi ki to ratou uma.
your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith Jehovah, who have burned incense upon the mountains, and outraged me upon the hills; and I will measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ka rite ki te waina hou e kitea ana i roto i te tautau, a ka kiia, Kaua e whakakorea, he manaaki hoki kei roto; ka pera ano taku e mea ai, he whakaaro ki aku pononga, kei kore ratou katoa.
Thus saith Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and it is said, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy [them] all.
9 Ka whakaputaina ake ano e ahau he uri i roto i a Hakopa, i roto hoki i a Hura, he tangata mona nei aku maunga: ka riro ano a reira i aku i whiriwhiri ai, ka noho aku pononga ki reira.
And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah a possessor of my mountains; and mine elect shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 A hei puninga hipi a Harono, hei tapapatanga te raorao i Akoro mo nga kau a taku iwi i rapu nei i ahau.
And the Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a couching-place of the herds, for my people that have sought me.
11 Ko koutou ia kua whakarere i a Ihowa, kua wareware ki toku maunga tapu, kua whakapaia e koutou he tepu ma Kara, whakakiia ana e koutou he ringihanga ki a Meni;
But ye who forsake Jehovah, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and fill up mixed wine unto Meni:
12 Ka tukua atu koutou e ahau ma te hoari, ka tuohu koutou katoa, ka tukitukia: no te mea i karanga ahau, a kihai koutou i whakao mai, i korero ahau, a kihai koutou i whakarongo; heoi mahia ana e koutou te kino ki taku tirohanga, whiriwhiria ana e koutou te mea kihai i paingia e ahau.
I will even assign you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down in the slaughter; because I called, and ye did not answer, I spoke, and ye did not hear; but ye did what was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delight not.
13 Na ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Nana, ko aku pononga, ka kai ratou, ko koutou ia ka matekai: nana, ko aku pononga, ka inu ratou, ko koutou ia ka matewai; nana, ko aku pononga, ka koa ratou, ko koutou ia ka whakama:
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, my servants shall eat, and ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, and ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and ye shall be ashamed;
14 Nana, ko aku pononga, ka waiata ratou he koa no te ngakau, ko koutou ia ka tangi i te pouri o te ngakau, ka aue i te maru o te wairua.
behold, my servants shall sing aloud for gladness of heart, and ye shall cry out for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 A ka waiho ano e koutou to koutou ingoa hei kanga ma aku i whiriwhiri ai, a ka whakamatea koutou e te Ariki, e Ihowa, ka huaina hoki e ia he ingoa ke ki ana pononga:
And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto mine elect; for the Lord Jehovah will slay thee, and will call his servants by another name:
16 Kia waiho te tangata e manaaki ana i a ia ano i te whenua, mana ia e manaaki i runga i te Atua o te pono; ko te tangata hoki e oati ana i te whenua, ko te Atua o te pono hei oati mana; no te mea ka warewaretia nga raru o mua, a no te mea kei te huna atu i oku kanohi.
so that he who blesseth himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the land shall swear by the God of truth: because the former troubles shall be forgotten, and because they shall be hidden from mine eyes.
17 Tenei hoki ahau kei te hanga i nga rangi hou, i te whenua hou; e kore ano o mua e maharatia, e kore ano e puta ake ki te ngakau.
For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 Engari kia koa koutou, kia whakamanamana ki taku e hanga nei ake ake; no te mea tenei ahau te hanga nei i Hiruharama hei whakamanamananga, i tona iwi ano hei koanga ngakau.
But be glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 Ka whakamanamana ano ahau ki Hiruharama, ka koa ki taku iwi: e kore ano e rangona i muri te reo e tangi ana, te reo e aue ana i roto i a ia.
And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and will joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
20 Kahore o reira kohungahunga he torutoru nei ona ra ake ake, kahore he koroheke kihai i rite ona ra; no te mea kotahi rau nga tau o te taitamariki i tona matenga; ko te tangata hara ia, kotahi rau nei ona tau, he mea kanga.
There shall be no more thenceforth an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not completed his days; for the youth shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 Ka hanga whare ano ratou, nohoia iho, ka whakatokia he mara waina, ka kainga ano nga hua.
And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof:
22 E kore e hanga e ratou hei nohoanga iho mo te tangata ke, e kore e whakatokia hei kai ma tetahi atu tangata: no te mea ka rite nga ra o taku iwi ki nga ra o te rakau, a ka roa aku i whiriwhiri ai e ahuareka ana ki te mahi a o ratou ringa.
they shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 E kore ratou e mauiui noa, e kore e whanau hei mate; no te mea he uri ratou no a Ihowa i manaaki ai, ratou tahi ano ko ta ratou whanau.
They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Jehovah, and their offspring with them.
24 Kahore ano ratou kia karanga noa, kua whakao atu ahau; i a ratou ano e korero ana, ka rongo ahau.
And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 Ko te wuruhi, ko te reme, ka kai tahi raua; ko te raiona, ka rite ki te kau, ka kai kakau witi; ko te nakahi, ko te peuhu hei kai mana. E kore ratou e tukino, e whakamate, puta noa i toku maunga tapu, e ai ta Ihowa.
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith Jehovah.
