Hakaraia 10

1 Inoia he ua i a Ihowa i te wa o to muri ua; ara i a Ihowa e hanga nei i nga uira, he nui ano te ua e homai e ia ki a ratou, he tarutaru i te mara ma tenei, ma tenei.

Ask ye of Yhwh rain in the time of the latter rain; so Yhwh shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

2 He tekateka noa hoki te korero a nga terapimi, he teka te kite a nga tohunga, he horihori nga moe i korerotia e ratou; he hanga noa iho ta ratou whakamarie, na reira haere ana ratou ano he kahui hipi; karangirangi kau ana i te kore hepara.

For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there was no shepherd.

3 I mura toku riri ki nga hepara, i whiua ano e ahau nga koati toa: kua tae mai hoki a Ihowa o nga mano ki tana kahui, ki te whare o Hura, kua mea i a ratou hei hoiho atanga mona i te tatauranga.

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for Yhwh of Armies hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.

4 No roto i a ia te putanga ake o te kohatu o te kokonga, no roto i a ia te whao, no roto i a ia te kopere mo te tatauranga, no roto i a ia nga kaiakiaki katoa, rupeke, rupeke.

Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.

5 A ka rite ratou ki nga marohirohi e takatakahi ana i o ratou hoariri ki te paru o nga waharoa i te mea e whawhai ana: ka whawhai ano ratou, no te mea kei a ratou a Ihowa, a ka whakama nga kaieke hoiho.

And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because Yhwh is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

6 Na ka kaha i ahau te whare o Hura, ka ora ano i ahau te whare o Hohepa, ka whakahokia ki te nohoanga; no te mea ka tohungia ratou e ahau, a me te mea kihai ratou i peia e ahau; ko ahau hoki, ko Ihowa, to ratou Atua, ka whakarongo ano ahau ki a ra tou.

And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Yhwh their God, and will hear them.

7 Na ka rite nga Eparaimi ki te marohirohi, ka koa ano to ratou ngakau me te mea na te waina: ka kite ano a ratou tamariki, a ka koa; ka whakamanamana to ratou ngakau ki a Ihowa.

And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in Yhwh.

8 Ka hi ahau ki a ratou, ka huihui i a ratou; kua hokona hoki ratou e ahau; a ka tini ratou, ka pera me ratou i tini ra.

I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased.

9 A ka whakatokia ratou e ahau ki roto ki nga iwi, ka mahara ano ratou ki ahau i nga whenua tawhiti, ka ora hoki ratou me a ratou tamariki, a ka hoki.

And I will sow them among the people: and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and turn again.

10 Ka whakahokia mai ano ratou e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa, ka huihuia mai i Ahiria; ka kawea ano ki te whenua o Kireara, ki Repanona, te kitea he wahi mo ratou.

I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and place shall not be found for them.

11 Na ka tika atu ia i waenga moana, ara i te raruraru, a ka patu i nga ngaru i te moana, ka maroke hoki nga wahi hohonu o te awa, a ka riro iho te whakapehapeha o Ahiria, ka riro ke ano te hepeta o Ihipa.

And he shall pass through the sea with affliction, and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the river shall dry up: and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.

12 Ka whakakahangia ano ratou e ahau i runga i a Ihowa; ka haereere hoki ratou i runga i tona ingoa, e ai ta Ihowa.

And I will strengthen them in Yhwh; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Yhwh.
