Hakaraia 11
1 Whakatuwheratia, ou kuwaha, e Repanona, kia kai ai te ahi i ou hita.
Open thy doores, O Lebanon, and the fire shall deuoure thy cedars.
2 Aue, e te kauri; kua hinga hoki te hita, kua pahuatia nga mea ataahua; aue, e nga oki o Pahana, kua riro iho hoki te ngahere kahore nei e taea atu!
Houle, firre trees: for the cedar is fallen, because all the mightie are destroyed: houle ye, O okes of Bashan, for ye defesed forest is cut downe.
3 He reo no nga hepara e aue ana; no te mea kua oti to ratou kororia te pahua; he reo no nga kuao raiona e ngengere ana; no te mea kua oti te whakapehapeha o Horano te pahua.
There is the voyce of the houling of the shepherdes: for their glorie is destroyed: the voyce of ye roaring of lyons whelpes: for the pride of Iorden is destroyed.
4 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a toku Atua, Whangaia nga hipi, nga mea e patua ana;
Thus sayeth the Lord my God, Feede the sheepe of the slaughter.
5 E patua ana hoki e nga tangata nana, te ai he whakahe ake: ko te ki a o ratou kaihoko, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa; kua whiwhi hoki ahau ki te taonga: kahore hoki he manawapa o o ratou hepara ki a ratou.
They that possesse them, slay them and sinne not: and they that sell them, say, Blessed be the Lord: for I am riche, and their owne shepherds spare them not.
6 E kore hoki ahau e manawapa ki nga tangata o te whenua a muri ake nei, e ai ta Ihowa: engari na, ka tukua nga tangata ki te ringa o tona hoa, o tona hoa, ki te ringa ano o tona kingi: a ma ratou te whenua e patu; e kore ano ahau e whakaora i a ra tou i roto i o ratou ringa.
Surely I wil no more spare those that dwell in the land, sayth the Lord: but loe, I will deliuer the men euery one into his neighbours hand, and into the hand of his King: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hands I wil not deliuer them.
7 Na kei te whangai ahau i nga hipi e patua ana, i nga mea iti ano o te kahui. I tikina ano e ahau etahi tokotoko e rua moku, tapa iho e ahau tetahi ko Ataahua, tetahi tapa iho e ahau, ko nga Paihere; na kei te whangai ahau i nga hipi.
For I fed the sheepe of slaughter, euen the poore of the flocke, and I tooke vnto me two staues: the one I called Beautie, and the other I called Bandes, and I fed the sheepe.
8 He mea hatepe ano naku nga hepara tokotoru i te marama kotahi; i whakarihariha hoki toku wairua ki a ratou, ko o ratou wairua hoki i whakarihariha ki ahau.
Three shepherdes also I cut off in one moneth, and my soule lothed them, and their soule abhorred me.
9 Katahi ahau ka ki atu, E kore koutou e whangaia e ahau: ko te mea mo te mate kia mate, ko te mea e hatepea kia hatepea; kia kai hoki nga toenga i nga kikokiko o tona hoa, o tona hoa.
Then said I, I will not feede you: that that dyeth, let it dye: and that that perisheth, let it perish: and let the remnant eate, euery one the flesh of his neighbour.
10 Na kua mau ahau ki toku tokotoko ki a Ataahua, tapahia putia ana e ahau, he whakatakanga i taku kawenata i whakaritea e ahau ki nga iwi katoa.
And I tooke my staffe, euen Beautie, and brake it, that I might disanull my couenant, which I had made with all people.
11 Na kua whakataka i taua ra; a mohio tonu iho nga mea iti o te kahui i tatari ki ahau, na Ihowa taua kupu.
And it was broken in that day: and so the poore of the sheepe that waited vpon me, knew that it was the worde of the Lord.
12 I mea ano ahau ki a ratou, Ki te mea e pai ana ki ta koutou titiro, homai toku utu; ki te kahore, kauaka. Na paunatia mai ana toku utu e ratou, e toru tekau hiriwa.
And I said vnto them, If ye thinke it good, giue me my wages: and if no, leaue off: so they weighed for my wages thirtie pieces of siluer.
13 Na ka ki mai a Ihowa ki ahau, Maka atu ki te kaihanga rihi te utu pai i whakaritea moku e ratou. Na ka mau ahau ki nga hiriwa e toru tekau, a maka atu ana e ahau ki te kaihanga rihi i te whare o Ihowa.
And the Lord said vnto me, Cast it vnto the potter: a goodly price, that I was valued at of them. And I tooke the thirtie pieces of siluer, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord.
14 Katahi ka tapahia putia e ahau te rua o oku tokotoko, ara nga Paihere, kia kore ai te tuakanatanga o Hura ki a Iharaira.
Then brake I mine other staffe, euen the Bandes, that I might dissolue the brotherhood betweene Iudah and Israel.
15 I ki mai ano a Ihowa ki ahau, Tikina ano etahi mea a te hepara wairangi mau.
And the Lord said vnto me, Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepheard.
16 No te mea, na, ka ara i ahau tetahi hepara i te whenua; e kore ia e tirotiro i nga mea ka motuhia atu, e kore e rapu i nga mea kua marara, e kore e rongoa i te mea he whati tona, e kore ano e whangai i te mea e toitu ana: engari ka kainga e ia t e kikokiko o te mea momona, ko o ratou matikuku titaritaria rawatia e ia.
For loe, I will rayse vp a shepheard in the land, which shall not looke for the thing, that is lost, nor seeke the tender lambes, nor heale that that is hurt, nor feede that that standeth vp: but he shall eate the flesh of the fat, and teare their clawes in pieces.
17 Aue, te mate mo te hepara hauwarea, e whakarere ana i nga hipi! ka pa te hoari ki tona ringa, ki tona kanohi matau: ka memenge rawa tona ringa, ka pouri rawa tona kanohi matau.
O idole shepheard that leaueth the flocke: the sword shalbe vpon his arme, and vpon his right eye. His arme shall be cleane dryed vp, and his right eye shall be vtterly darkened.
