Jeremiah 6
Maori Bible
6 Putere atu, e nga tama a Pineamine, i roto i Hiruharama, whakatangihia te tetere ki Tekoa, kokiritia ake he ahi tohu ki Petehakereme: he kino hoki te titiro mai nei i te raki, he whakangaromanga nui.
2 Ka tapahia atu e ahau te wahine ataahua, te wahine whakatarapi, te tamahine a Hiona.
3 Ka haere mai nga hepara, me a ratou kahui ki a ia; ka whakaturia o ratou teneti ki tetahi taha ona, ki tetahi taha; ka kai ratou ki tona wahi, ki tona wahi.
4 Kia rite nga mea mo te whawhai ki a ia; whakatika, kia whakaekea i te poutumarotanga. Aue, te mate mo tatou! kua tawharara hoki te ra, kua whakawairua kau ano nga atarangi o te ahiahi.
5 Maranga, kia whakaekea e tatou i te po, kia wawahia ano ona whare kingi.
6 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Tuaina he rakau, haupuria ake he pukepuke hei whawhai ki Hiruharama; ko te pa tenei e whiua; he tukino kau tana i roto i a ia.
7 Rite tonu ki te pukenga ake o te wai o te puna te pukenga ake o tona kino: he tukino, he pahua te rangona ana i roto i a ia; kei toku aroaro tonu te mamae me te patunga.
8 E ako, e Hiruharama, kei puta ke toku ngakau ki a koe, kei meinga koe e ahau kia ururuatia, he whenua kahore e nohoia.
9 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Ka ata, hamua marietia nga toenga o Iharaira, ano he waina; kia rite tau ki ta te kaikohi karepe, whakahokia iho tou ringa ki roto ki nga kete.
10 Ki a wai ra taku korero, taku whakaatu tikanga, e rongo ai ratou? nana, he mea kokotikore to ratou taringa, te whakarongo ai ratou: nana, hei tawainga ma ratou te kupu a Ihowa, kahore e arongia e ratou.
11 Na, ki tonu ahau i te riri o Ihowa; ruha iho ahau i te koromaki: ringihia ki runga ki te kohungahunga i te ara, ki te whakaminenga ano o nga taitamariki, hui katoa: no te mea ka hopukia te tane raua ko te wahine, te koroheke raua ko te tangata k ua maha ona ra.
12 Ka riro ke o ratou whare i etahi atu, nga mara ngatahi ano ko nga wahine: no te mea ka totoro toku ringa ki nga tangata o te whenua, e ai ta Ihowa.
13 Ko te mea iti o ratou, ko te mea nui hoki kei runga i te apo; ko te poropiti, ko te tohunga, ratou katoa kei te mahi teka:
14 Ko ta ratou rongoatanga hoki i te mamae o taku iwi he hanga noa iho; e ki ana, Ka mau te rongo, ka mau te rongo; i te mea kahore nei he maunga rongo.
15 I whakama ranei ratou i a ratou e mahi ana i nga mea whakarihariha? hore rawa o ratou whakama, kahore hoki i mohio ki te numinumi: mo reira ka hinga ratou i roto i te hunga e hinga ana: i te wa e whiu ai ahau i a ratou, ka whakataka ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
16 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, E tu ki nga ara, tirohia atu, uia nga ara tawhito kei hea te ara pai, ka haere i reira, a ka kite koutou i te tanga reira, a ka kite koutou i te tanga manawa mo o koutou wairua. Heoi e ki mai ana ratou, E kore matou e h aere i reira.
17 I whakaturia ano e ahau etahi kaitutei mo koutou, i mea ahau, Whakarongo ki te tangi o te tetere. Heoi e ki ana ratou, E kore matou e whakarongo.
18 Mo reira, whakarongo, e nga iwi, kia mohio ano koe, e te huihui, ki nga mea kei roto i a ratou.
19 Whakarongo, e te whenua; tenei ahau te kawe mai nei i te kino mo tenei iwi, i nga hua o o ratou whakaaro; mo ratou kihai i whakarongo ki aku korero; ko taku ture, paopaongia ake e ratou.
20 Hei aha te whakakakara i tae mai ai ki ahau i Hepa, te kakaho kakara i te whenua tawhiti? e kore a koutou tahunga tinana e arongia, e kore ano a koutou patunga tapu e reka ki ahau.
21 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tenei ahau te whakatakoto nei i nga tutukitanga waewae e ki mua i tenei iwi, e tutuki ngatahi ai nga matua, nga tamariki; ka ngaro te tangata noho tata raua ko tona hoa.
22 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tenei te haere mai nei he iwi i te whenua ki te raki, ka whakaarahia mai ano he iwi nui i nga pito o te whenua.
23 Ka mau ratou ki te kopere, ki te tao; he nanakia ratou, e kore hoki e tohu tangata; ko to ratou reo, ano kei te moana e haruru ana, a eke ai ratou i runga i te hoiho; rarangi rawa ratou, me te mea he tangata e mea ana ki te whawhai ki a koe, e t e tamahine a Hiona.
24 Kua rongo matou ki tona rongo; ngoikore iho o matou ringa; mau pu matou i te pawera, i te mamae, me te mea he wahine e whanau ana.
25 Kei puta atu ki te mara, kaua hoki e haere i te ara; kei reira hoki te hoari a te hoariri, a kei nga taha katoa te wehi.
26 E te tamahine a taku iwi, whitikiria te kakahu taratara, ka takaoriori ki te pungarehu, hei te tangi ki te huatahi tau tangi ki a koe, kia tiwerawera te tangi: no te mea kihai i aha kua tae mai te kaipahua ki a tatou.
27 Kua oti koe te mea e ahau hei pourewa, hei pa kaha, i roto i toku iwi; kia mohio ai koe, kia whakamatau ai i to ratou ara.
28 He tino nui to ratou tutu, a ko ta ratou i a ratou e haereere ana he ngau tuara: he parahi ratou, he rino; he hunga whakangau ke ratou katoa.
29 Kei te kaka te hau o te pupuhi ahi; kua pau te mata i te ahi, maumau whakarewa noa te kaitahi para: kahore nei hoki te hunga kino kia unuhia atu.
30 E huaina ratou e te tangata he hiriwa i paopaongia, no te mea kua paopao nei a Ihowa ki a ratou.
Jeremiah 6
New International Version
Jeremiah 6
New International Version
Jerusalem Under Siege
6 “Flee for safety, people of Benjamin!
Flee from Jerusalem!
Sound the trumpet(A) in Tekoa!(B)
Raise the signal over Beth Hakkerem!(C)
For disaster looms out of the north,(D)
even terrible destruction.
2 I will destroy Daughter Zion,(E)
so beautiful and delicate.(F)
3 Shepherds(G) with their flocks will come against her;
they will pitch their tents around(H) her,
each tending his own portion.”
4 “Prepare for battle against her!
Arise, let us attack at noon!(I)
But, alas, the daylight is fading,
and the shadows of evening grow long.
5 So arise, let us attack at night
and destroy her fortresses!”
6 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Cut down the trees(J)
and build siege ramps(K) against Jerusalem.
This city must be punished;
it is filled with oppression.(L)
7 As a well pours out its water,
so she pours out her wickedness.
Violence(M) and destruction(N) resound in her;
her sickness and wounds are ever before me.
8 Take warning, Jerusalem,
or I will turn away(O) from you
and make your land desolate
so no one can live in it.”
9 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Let them glean the remnant(P) of Israel
as thoroughly as a vine;
pass your hand over the branches again,
like one gathering grapes.”
10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
Who will listen(Q) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](R)
so they cannot hear.(S)
The word(T) of the Lord is offensive to them;
they find no pleasure in it.
11 But I am full of the wrath(U) of the Lord,
and I cannot hold it in.(V)
“Pour it out on the children in the street
and on the young men(W) gathered together;
both husband and wife will be caught in it,
and the old, those weighed down with years.(X)
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(Y)
together with their fields and their wives,(Z)
when I stretch out my hand(AA)
against those who live in the land,”
declares the Lord.
13 “From the least to the greatest,
all(AB) are greedy for gain;(AC)
prophets and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(AD)
14 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
when there is no peace.(AE)
15 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame at all;
they do not even know how to blush.(AF)
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when I punish(AG) them,”
says the Lord.
16 This is what the Lord says:
“Stand at the crossroads and look;
ask for the ancient paths,(AH)
ask where the good way(AI) is, and walk in it,
and you will find rest(AJ) for your souls.
But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17 I appointed watchmen(AK) over you and said,
‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’(AL)
But you said, ‘We will not listen.’(AM)
18 Therefore hear, you nations;
you who are witnesses,
observe what will happen to them.
19 Hear, you earth:(AN)
I am bringing disaster(AO) on this people,
the fruit of their schemes,(AP)
because they have not listened to my words(AQ)
and have rejected my law.(AR)
20 What do I care about incense from Sheba(AS)
or sweet calamus(AT) from a distant land?
Your burnt offerings are not acceptable;(AU)
your sacrifices(AV) do not please me.”(AW)
21 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“I will put obstacles before this people.
Parents and children alike will stumble(AX) over them;
neighbors and friends will perish.”
22 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an army is coming
from the land of the north;(AY)
a great nation is being stirred up
from the ends of the earth.(AZ)
23 They are armed with bow and spear;
they are cruel and show no mercy.(BA)
They sound like the roaring sea(BB)
as they ride on their horses;(BC)
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Zion.(BD)”
24 We have heard reports about them,
and our hands hang limp.(BE)
Anguish(BF) has gripped us,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(BG)
25 Do not go out to the fields
or walk on the roads,
for the enemy has a sword,
and there is terror on every side.(BH)
26 Put on sackcloth,(BI) my people,
and roll in ashes;(BJ)
mourn with bitter wailing(BK)
as for an only son,(BL)
for suddenly the destroyer(BM)
will come upon us.
27 “I have made you a tester(BN) of metals
and my people the ore,
that you may observe
and test their ways.
28 They are all hardened rebels,(BO)
going about to slander.(BP)
They are bronze and iron;(BQ)
they all act corruptly.
29 The bellows blow fiercely
to burn away the lead with fire,
but the refining(BR) goes on in vain;
the wicked are not purged out.
30 They are called rejected silver,(BS)
because the Lord has rejected them.”(BT)
