< Heremaia 35 >
1 Ko te kupu i puta mai ki a Heremaia na Ihowa, i nga ra o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura; i mea ia,
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Sedekias king of Juda, in the fifth month, [that] Ananias the false prophet, the son of Azor, from Gabaon, spoke to me in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying,
2 Haere ki te whare o nga Rekapi, korero atu ki a ratou, ka kawe i a ratou ki te whare o Ihowa, ki tetahi o nga ruma, ka whakainu i a ratou ki te waina.
Thus says the Lord; I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Na ka tikina e ahau a Iaatania tama a Heremaia, tama a Hapatinia, ratou ko ona teina, ko ana tama katoa, ko te whare katoa hoki o nga Rekapi;
Yet two full years, and I will return into this place the vessels of the house of the Lord,
4 A kawea ana ratou e ahau ki te whare o Ihowa, ki te ruma o nga tama a Hanana tama a Ikiraria, he tangata na te Atua, ki tera i te taha o te ruma o nga rangatira, i runga ake i te ruma o te kaitiaki tatau, o Maaheia tama a Harumu:
and Jechonias, and the captivity of Juda: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
5 A whakaturia ana e ahau etahi oko, ki tonu i te waina, me etahi kapu ki te aroaro o nga tama o te whare o nga Rekapi. Na ka mea atu ahau ki a ratou, Inumia e koutou he waina.
Then Jeremias spoke to Ananias in the sight of all the people, and in the sight of the priests that stood in the house of the Lord,
6 Ano ra ko ratou, E kore matou e inu waina; i ako hoki to matou papa, a Ionarapa, tama a Rekapa, ki a matou, i mea, Kei inu waina koutou ko a koutou tamariki a ake ake:
and Jeremias said, May the Lord indeed do thus; may he confirm your word which you do prophesy, to return the vessels of the house of the Lord, and all the captivity, out of Babylon to this place.
7 Kaua hoki koutou e hanga whare, e whakato purapura, e whakato mara waina ranei, kaua hoki he pena ma koutou; engari, i o koutou ra katoa, me noho teneti; kia maha ai nga ra e ora ai koutou ki te mata o te oneone e noho manene nei koutou.
Nevertheless hear you the word of the Lord which I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people.
8 Na rongo tonu matou ki te reo o to matou papa, o Ionarapa tama a Rekapa, ki nga mea katoa i whakahau ai ia ki a matou, kia kaua e inu waina i o matou ra katoa, matou, a matou wahine, a matou tama, a matou tamahine;
The prophets that were before me and before you of old, also prophesied over much country, and against great kingdoms, concerning war.
9 Kia kaua ano e hanga whare hei nohoanga mo matou: kahore hoki a matou mara waina, mara ke ranei, purapura ranei;
[As for] the prophet that has prophesied for peace, when the word has come [to pass], they shall know the prophet whom the Lord has sent them in truth.
10 Engari ko o matou nohoanga he teneti, rongo tonu matou, mahi tonu i nga mea katoa i whakahaua e to matou papa, e Ionarapa, ki a matou.
Then Ananias took the yokes from the neck of Jeremias in the sight of all the people, and broke them to pieces.
11 Otiia, i te whakaekenga a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona i te whenua, ka mea matou, Haere mai, haere tatou ki Hiruharama, kei mate i te ope a nga Karari, i te ope hoki a nga Hiriani; na noho ana matou i Hiruharama.
And Ananias spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus said the Lord; Thus will I break the yoke of the king of Babylon from the necks of all the nations. And Jeremias went his way.
12 Katahi ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia; ka mea ia,
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, after that Ananias had broken the yokes off his neck, saying,
13 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; Haere, mea atu ki nga tangata o Hura, ki te hunga hoki e noho ana i Hiruharama, E kore ianei koutou e manako ki te ako, e rongo ki aku kupu? e ai ta Ihowa.
Go and speak to Ananias, saying, Thus says the Lord; You have broken the yokes of wood; but I will make instead of them yokes of iron.
14 Kua tutuki nga kupu a Ionarapa tama a Rekapa i whakahau ai ia ki ana tamariki kia kaua e inu waina; kihai hoki ratou i inu a taea noatia tenei ra, no te mea e whakarongo ana ratou ki te ako a to ratou papa: ko ahau ia, i korero ahau ki a koutou, moata ai i te ata ka korero; heoi kihai koutou i rongo ki ahau.
For thus said the Lord, I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all the nations, that they may serve the king of Babylon.
15 I unga atu ano e ahau aku pononga katoa, nga poropiti, maranga wawe ana ahau, unga ana i a ratou, ki a koutou, me te ki atu, Tahuri mai koutou, e tera, e tera o koutou i o koutou ara kino, ka whakapai i a koutou mahi, kaua hoki e whai ki nga atu a ke, kaua e mahi ki a ratou, a ka noho koutou ki te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki a koutou ko o koutou matua: heoi kihai i anga mai o koutou taringa, kihai hoki i rongo ki ahau.
And Jeremias said to Ananias, The Lord has not sent you; and you have caused this people to trust in unrighteousness.
16 Na, kua whakamana nei e nga tama a Ionarapa tama a Rekapa te ako a to ratou papa i ako ai ia ki a ratou, engari ko tenei iwi, kihai i rongo ki ahau:
Therefore thus said the Lord: Behold, I [will] cast you off from the face of the earth: this year you shall die.
17 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; Nana, ka kawea mai e ahau ki a Hura, ki nga tangata katoa hoki o Hiruharama, nga kino katoa i korerotia e ahau mo ratou: no te mea i korero ahau ki a ratou, a kihai i rongo; i karanga ahau ki a ratou, a kihai ratou i whakahoki kupu mai.
So he died in the seventh month.
18 Na ka mea a Heremaia ki te whare o nga Rekapi, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; I te mea i rongo koutou ki te ako a to koutou papa, a Ionarapa, i pupuri hoki i ana ako katoa, i mahi i nga mea katoa i akona e ia ki a kou tou;
19 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: E kore e kore he tangata ma Ionarapa tama a Rekapa, hei tu ki toku aroaro i nga ra katoa.
