< Hakaraia 14 >

1 Nana, kei te haere mai te ra o Ihowa, a ka wehewehea ou taonga parakete i roto i a koe.
Listen! It will soon be the time when Yahweh [will judge everyone]. At that time, the possessions that were taken from you [people of Jerusalem by your enemies will be returned to you, and] will be divided among you.
2 Na ka huihuia e ahau nga iwi katoa ki te tatau ki Hiruharama, a ka horo te pa, ka pahuatia nga whare, ka moea nga wahine; a ko tetahi hawhe o te pa ka riro hei whakarau, e kore ano ia te toenga o te iwi e hatepea atu i roto i te pa.
[Before that happens, ] Yahweh will cause [the armies of] many [HYP] nations to attack Jerusalem. They will capture the city and steal all the valuable things from your houses and rape the women. They will take half of the people to other countries, but the other half of the people will be allowed to remain in the city.
3 Katahi a Ihowa ka haere atu, ka whawhai ki aua iwi, ka rite ki te ra i whawhai ai ia i te ra o te tatauranga.
Then Yahweh will go out to fight against those nations; he will fight like [SIM] [soldiers] fight in a battle.
4 Na ka tu ona waewae i taua ra ki runga ki Maunga Oriwa, ki tera i te ritenga atu o Hiruharama ki te rawhiti, a ka pakaru a Maunga Oriwa i waenganui ona ki te rawhiti; ki te hauauru, nui atu te awaawa, a ka neke atu tetahi hawhe o te maunga ki te raki, tetahi hawhe ona ki te tonga.
On that day, he will stand on Olive [Tree] Hill, east of Jerusalem. Olive [Tree] Hill will be split into two [parts], with a large valley between the parts. Half of the hill will move toward the north and half [will move] toward the south.
5 A ka oma atu koutou ki te awaawa i oku maunga; no te mea ka tutuki atu te takiwa o nga maunga ki Atara: na, ko ta koutou oma ka rite ki to koutou omanga atu i te ru i nga ra o Utia kingi o Hura: tera ano a Ihowa, toku Atua, e haere mai, ko te hun ga tapu katoa hei hoa mou.
People will flee through that valley which extends to the other side (OR, to Azel), like [SIM] people fled when there was an earthquake during the time that King Uzziah ruled Judah. Then Yahweh my God will come with his holy [angels].
6 Na i taua ra e kore te marama e purotu, e kore ano e pouri.
At that time, there will be no light [from the sun]; it will not become cold and there will be no frost.
7 Erangi kotahi tonu taua ra, he mea e mohiotia ana e Ihowa, ehara i te ra, ehara i te po; na i nga wa o te ahiahi ka marama.
There has been no other time like that time, and only Yahweh knows when it will happen. There will be no daytime or nighttime; there will be [light continually], [even] in the evening.
8 Na i taua ra ka puta he wai ora i Hiruharama, ko tetahi hawhe ki te moana i te rawhiti, ko tetahi hawhe ki te moana i te uru: i te raumati taua hanga, i te hotoke ano.
At that time, running/fresh water will flow from Jerusalem. One stream will flow toward the east to the [Dead] Sea. The other stream will flow toward the west to the [Mediterranean] Sea. The water will flow [all the time], during (summer/the hot season) as well as in (winter/the cold season).
9 A ko Ihowa hei kingi mo te whenua katoa: i taua ra he kotahi a Ihowa, he kotahi ano tona ingoa.
After that time, Yahweh will be the king [who rules] the entire world. [Everyone will know that] Yahweh, and only Yahweh [MTY], is the true God.
10 A hei mania katoa te whenua a taka noa, i Kepa tae noa ki Rimona, ki te tonga o Hiruharama; a ka neke ake taua pa, ka noho ki tona wahi ano, ki te kuwaha o Pineamine tae noa ki te wahi i te kuwaha tuatahi, ki te kuwaha i te koki, ki te pourewa o Hananeere tae noa ki nga poka waina a te kingi.
[At that time, ] all the land [in Judah] from Geba [town at the north] to Rimmon [town far to] the south of Jerusalem, will become a plain. Jerusalem will remain raised up like it has always been. [It will extend] from the Benjamin Gate and the First Gate [northeast] to the Tower of Hananel, and to the king’s winepresses [to the southwest].
11 Ka nohoia ano a reira, a heoi ano whakangaromanga; a ka noho a Hiruharama i runga i te rangimarie.
Many people will live there, and the city will never be destroyed again. It will be a safe city.
12 Ko te whiu ano tenei e whiua ai e Ihowa nga iwi katoa i whawhai nei ki Hiruharama; ka pirau o ratou kikokiko i te mea e tu ana o ratou waewae, ka pirau o ratou kanohi i roto i nga pae, ka pirau ano o ratou arero i roto i o ratou mangai.
But Yahweh will cause the people in all the nations that attacked Jerusalem to be afflicted by a (plague/severe illness). Their flesh will rot while they are still standing up. Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 I taua ra he nui ta Ihowa whakaoho i roto i a ratou; a ka hopu ratou i te ringa o tona hoa, o tona hoa, ka ara ake ano o ratou ringa ki te ringa o tona hoa, o tona hoa.
At that time, Yahweh will cause many people to panic. People will grab and attack each other.
14 Tera ano a Hura ka whawhai ki Hiruharama; a ka huihuia nga rawa o nga iwi katoa a taka noa, te koura, te hiriwa, nga kakahu, nui atu.
[The people who live in other places in] Judah will fight to defend Jerusalem. They will collect the valuable things from the surrounding nations—a lot of gold and silver and clothes.
15 A ka pera ano te mate o te hoiho, o te muera, o te kamera, o te kaihe, o nga kararehe katoa i roto i enei puni me tenei whiu.
The same plague [that will afflict the people of other nations] will afflict their horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the other work animals in their (camps/places where they have set up their tents).
16 Tenei ake, na, ko nga morehu katoa o nga iwi katoa i haere mai ki te whawhai ki Hiruharama, ka haere mai i ia tau, i ia tau, ki te koropiko ki te Kingi, ki a Ihowa o nga mano, ki te whakarite hoki i te hakari whare wharau.
The people of other nations who [previously] came [to fight] against Jerusalem, all those who are still alive, will return to Jerusalem every year to worship the King, the Commander of the armies of angels, and to celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
17 Na, ko te tangata o nga hapu o te whenua ka kore e haere mai ki Hiruharama ki te koropiko ki te Kingi, ki a Ihowa o nga mano, kahore he ua mo ratou.
If there are people in those nations who do not go [to Jerusalem to worship there], rain will not fall on their land.
18 A ki te kahore te hapu o Ihipa e haere mai, e tae mai, te hunga kahore nei he ua mo ratou, ka pa ano te whiu e whiua ai e Ihowa nga iwi kahore nei e haere mai ki te whakarite i te hakari whare wharau.
If the people of Egypt [or any other nation] do not go to Jerusalem, [they will not have any rain]. And Yahweh will cause them to experience the same plague that afflicted the [people of other] nations that did not celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
19 Ko te utu hara tenei mo Ihipa, ko te utu hara ano mo nga iwi katoa e kore e haere mai ki te whakarite i te hakari whare wharau.
That is how [Yahweh] will punish [the people of] Egypt and [the people of] any [other] nation who do not go [to Jerusalem] to celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
20 I taua ra ka piri ki nga pere o nga hoiho, HE TAPU KI A IHOWA; ka rite hoki nga kohua i roto i te whare o Ihowa ki nga peihana i mua i te aata.
At that time, [the words] ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’ will be written on the bells that are fastened to the horses. The [cooking] pots in [the courtyard of the] temple will be [sacred], like the bowls that are near the altar.
21 Ina, ko nga kohua katoa i Hiruharama, i a Hura, he tapu ki a Ihowa o nga mano, a ka haere mai te hunga katoa e patu whakahere ana, ka tango i etahi hei kohua ma ratou: kahore hoki he Kanaani a muri ake nei i roto i te whare o Ihowa o nga mano i taua ra.
Every pot in Jerusalem and [in other places in] Judah will be dedicated to the Commander of the armies of angels. So everyone who offers sacrifices [there in Jerusalem] will be able to take some of the meat that has been brought for sacrifices, and cook it in their own pots. And at that time, people will no longer buy or sell things in [the courtyard of] the temple of the Commander of the armies of angels.
