< 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 have bene sought of them that asked not: I was found of them that sought me not: I sayd, Beholde me, beholde me, vnto a nation that called not vpon 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 haue spred out mine handes all the day vnto a rebellious people, which walked in a way that was not good, euen after their owne imaginations:
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;
A people that prouoked me euer vnto my face: that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense vpon brickes.
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.
Which remaine among the graues, and lodge in the desarts, which eate swines flesh, and the broth of things polluted are 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.
Which say, Stand apart, come not neere to me: for I am holier then thou: these are a smoke in my wrath and 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,
Beholde, it is written before me: I wil not keepe silence, but will render it and recompense it into their bosome.
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 shalbe together (sayth the Lord) which haue burnt incense vpon the mountaines, and blasphemed me vpon the hilles: therefore wil I measure their olde worke into their bosome.
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 sayth the Lord, As the wine is found in the cluster, and one sayth, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it, so will I doe for my seruants sakes, that I may not destroy them whole.
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.
But I will bring a seede out of Iaakob, and out of Iudah, that shall inherit my mountaine: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my seruants 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 Sharon shalbe a sheepefolde, and the valley of Achor shalbe a resting place for the cattell of my people, that haue 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 are they that haue forsaken the Lord and forgotten mine holy Mountaine, and haue prepared a table for the multitude, and furnish the drinke offerings vnto the number.
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.
Therefore wil I number you to the sword, and all you shall bowe downe to the slaughter, because I called, and ye did not answere: I spake, and ye heard not, but did euil in my sight, and did chuse that thing which I would 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 God, Beholde, my seruants shall eate, and ye shalbe hungrie: beholde, my seruants shall drinke, and ye shall be thirstie: beholde, my seruants shall reioyce, and ye shalbe 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.
Beholde, my seruants shall sing for ioye of heart, and ye shall crye for sorow of heart, and shall howle for vexation of minde.
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 leaue your name as a curse vnto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay you and call his seruants 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.
He that shall blesse in the earth, shall blesse himselfe in the true God, and he that sweareth in the earth, shall sweare by the true God: for the former troubles are forgotten, and shall surely hide themselues 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 lo, I will create newe heauens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembred nor come into minde.
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 you glad and reioyce for euer in the things that I shall create: for beholde, I will create Ierusalem, as a reioycing and her people as a ioye,
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 wil reioyce in Ierusalem, and ioye in my people, and the voyce of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voyce 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 there a childe of yeeres, nor an olde man that hath not filled his dayes: for he that shall be an hundreth yeeres old, shall dye as a yong man: but the sinner being an hundreth yeeres olde 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 inhabite them, and they shall plant vineyards, and eate the fruite of them.
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 inhabite: they shall not plant, and another eate: for as the dayes of the tree are the dayes of my people, and mine elect shall inioye in olde age the worke of their handes.
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 vaine, nor bring forth in feare: for they are the seede of the blessed of the Lord, and their buds with them.
24 Kahore ano ratou kia karanga noa, kua whakao atu ahau; i a ratou ano e korero ana, ka rongo ahau.
Yea, before they call, I will answere, and whiles they speake, I will heare.
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 wolfe and the lambe shall feede together, and the lyon shall eate strawe like the bullocke: and to the serpent dust shall be his meate. They shall no more hurt nor destroy in all mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord.
