Hakaraia 8
1 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa o nga mano ki ahau, i mea,
Againe the worde of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying,
2 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Nui atu te hae i hae ai ahau ki Hiona, he nui hoki te riri i hae ai ahau ki a ia.
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I was ielous for Zion with great ielousie, and I was ielous for her with great wrath.
3 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; Kua hoki nei ahau ki Hiona, kua noho ki Hiruharama; a tera e kiia a Hiruharama, Ko te pa o te pono, ko te maunga o Ihowa o nga mano, Ko te maunga tapu.
Thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Zion, and wil dwel in the mids of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem shalbe called a citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
4 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Tenei ake ka noho he koroheke, he ruruhi ki nga waharoa o Hiruharama, rite rawa te ringa o tenei, o tenei, i te tokotoko, he maha hoki no nga tau.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, There shall yet olde men and olde women dwell in the streetes of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
5 Ko nga waharoa ano o te pa kapi tonu i nga tamariki tane, i nga kotiro e takaro ana i ona waharoa.
And the streetes of the citie shalbe full of boyes and girles, playing in the streetes thereof.
6 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano; Ki te pakeke ki te titiro a nga morehu o tenei iwi i aua ra, e pakeke ano ranei ki taku titiro? e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Though it be vnpossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it therefore be vnpossible in my sight, sayth the Lord of hostes?
7 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Tenei ahau te whakaora nei i taku iwi i te whenua ki te rawhiti, i te whenua ano hoki ki te hauauru.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will deliuer my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
8 Ka kawea mai ano ratou e ahau, ka noho ratou ki waenganui o Hiruharama, a hei iwi ratou maku, ko ahau hoki hei Atua mo ratou i runga i te pono, i te tika.
And I wil bring them, and they shall dwel in the mids of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I wil be their God in trueth, and in righteousnes.
9 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Kia kaha o koutou ringa, e te hunga e rongo ana i enei ra ki enei kupu o roto i te mangai o nga poropiti i te ra i whakatakotoria ai te turanga mo te whare o Ihowa o nga mano, ara mo te temepara kia hanga ai.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Let your hands be strong, ye that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day, that the foundation of the House of the Lord of hostes was laide, that the Temple might be builded.
10 I mua hoki i enei ra kahore he utu mo te mahi a te tangata, kahore he utu mo ta te kararehe; kahore hoki he ata noho mo te tangata i haere atu, mo te tangata ano i haere mai, i te hoariri hoki; naku hoki i mea nga tangata katoa kia whawhai ki to na hoa, ki tona hoa.
For before these dayes there was no hire for man nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
11 Na e kore taku inaianei ki nga morehu o tenei iwi e rite ki to nga ra o mua, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.
But nowe, I wil not intreate the residue of this people as aforetime, saith the Lord of hostes.
12 No te mea ka ai te purapura o te rongo mau, ka tukua mai ona hua e te waina, ka tukua mai ano ona mau e te whenua, ka homai hoki to ratou tomairangi e nga rangi; maku ano e mea nga morehu o tenei iwi kia whiwhi ki enei mea katoa.
For the seede shall be prosperous: the vine shall giue her fruite, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dewe, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
13 Na i mua hei kanga koutou i roto i nga iwi, e te whare o Hura, e te whare o Iharaira, ka pena te nui o taku whakaora i a koutou, a hei manaakitanga koutou: kaua e wehi, kia kaha o koutou ringa.
And it shall come to passe, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so wil I deliuer you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
14 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Ka rite ki taku meatanga i te he mo koutou i te whakapataritaringa a o koutou matua ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano, a kihai toku whakaaro i puta ke:
For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayth the Lord of hostes, and repented not,
15 Ka pera ano te hoki ake o toku whakaaro i enei ra ki te pai kia meatia ki Hiruharama, ki te whare ano o Hura: kaua e wehi.
So againe haue I determined in these daies to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
16 Ko a koutou enei e mea ai; Korerotia te pono ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa; kia pono, kia whai i te rangimarie ta koutou whakarite whakawa i o koutou kuwaha:
These are ye things that ye shall doe. Speake ye euery man the trueth vnto his neighbour: execute iudgement truely and vprightly in your gates,
17 Kaua hoki e whakaaroa he kino i roto i o koutou ngakau ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa; kaua ano e arohaina te oati teka; no te mea e kinongia ana enei mea katoa e ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.
And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false othe: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
18 I puta ano te kupu a Ihowa o nga mano ki ahau: i mea,
And the worde of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
19 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Ko te nohopuku o te wha o nga marama, ko te nohopuku o te rima, ko te nohopuku o te whitu, ko te nohopuku o te ngahuru, hei oranga ngakau ena ki te whare o Hura, hei mea whakahari, hei hakari harakoa; na aroh aina te pono me te ata noho.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnes, and prosperous hie feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
20 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Tenei ake ka tae mai he iwi, he tangata i nga pa maha:
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, That there shall yet come people, and the inhabitants of great cities.
21 A ka haere nga tangata o tetahi pa ki tetahi pa, ka mea, Hapainga, tatou ka haere ki te inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, ki te rapu i a Ihowa o nga mano: ka haere ano hoki ahau.
And they that dwell in one citie, shall go to another, saying, Vp, let vs go and pray before the Lord, and seeke the Lord of hostes: I wil go also.
22 Ae ra, he tini nga iwi, he kaha nga tauiwi e haere mai ki te rapu i a Ihowa o nga mano i Hiruharama, ki te inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
Yea, great people and mightie nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
23 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, i aua ra ka hopu nga tangata kotahi tekau, he hunga no nga reo katoa o nga iwi, ka hopu i te remu o to tetahi Hurai, ka mea, Kia haere tahi tatou; kua rongo hoki matou kei a koutou te Atua.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, In those dayes shall ten men take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen take holde of the skirt of him that is a Iewe, and say, We will go with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.
