1 The burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel. {Thus} saith Jehovah, who stretcheth out the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him:

2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of bewilderment unto all the peoples round about, and also against Judah shall it be in the siege against Jerusalem.

3 And it shall come to pass in that day {that} I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone unto all peoples: all that burden themselves with it shall certainly be wounded, and all the nations of the earth shall be assembled together against it.

4 In that day, saith Jehovah, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness; but I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness.

5 And the leaders of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength through Jehovah of hosts their God.

6 In that day will I make the leaders of Judah like a hearth of fire among wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall dwell again in her own place, in Jerusalem.

7 And Jehovah shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified over Judah.

8 In that day will Jehovah defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David as God, as the Angel of Jehovah before them.

9 And it shall come to pass in that day, {that} I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

10 And I will pour upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplications; and they shall look on me whom they pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for an only {son}, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for {his} firstborn.

11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart: the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

13 the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;

14 all the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

1 Ko te poropititanga, he kupu na Ihowa mo Iharaira, E ai ta Ihowa, nana nei nga rangi i hora, nana te whenua i whakatu, nana i whai ahua ai te wairua o te tangata i roto i a ia.

2 Tenei ahau te mea nei i Hiruharama hei kapu wiri ki nga iwi katoa a taka noa; ka pehi ano i a Hura i te whakapaenga o Hiruharama.

3 Na i taua ra ka meinga e ahau a Hiruharama hei kohatu taimaha ki nga iwi katoa: ko te hunga katoa e hapai ana ka maruru rawa, a ka huihui nga iwi katoa o te whenua ki te tu ki a ia.

4 I taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa, ka patua e ahau ki te miharo nga hoiho katoa, me o ratou kaieke ki te haurangi: a ka titiro matatau oku kanohi ki te whare o Hura, ka patua ano e ahau nga hoiho katoa o nga iwi ki te matapo.

5 A ka mea nga rangatira o Hura i roto i o ratou ngakau, Ko nga tangata o Hiruharama hei kaha moku i runga i to ratou Atua, i a Ihowa o nga mano.

6 I taua ra ka meinga e ahau nga rangatira o Hura kia rite ki te kanga ahi i roto i nga rakau, kia rite ano ki te rama ahi i roto i te paihere; ka pau hoki i a ratou nga iwi katoa i te taha matau, i te taha maui, a karapoi noa; a tera a Hiruharama e noho ano i runga i tona turanga, ara i Hiruharama.

7 Na ka whakaora a Ihowa i nga teneti o Hura i te tuatahi, kei whakapehapeha te kororia o te whare o Rawiri, te kororia ranei o nga tangata o Hiruharama ki a Hura.

8 I taua ra ka tiakina e Ihowa nga tangata o Hiruharama; na, ko te tangata ngoikore i roto i a ratou, ka rite i taua ra ki a Rawiri; ko te whare o Rawiri ki te Atua, ki te anahera a Ihowa i to ratou aroaro.

9 I taua ra ka whai ahau kia whakangaromia nga iwi katoa e haere mai ana ki te whawhai ki Hiruharama.

10 Ka ringihia ano e ahau te wairua o te aroha noa, o nga inoi ki runga ki te whare o Rawiri, ki nga tangata o Hiruharama, a ka titiro ratou ki ahau ki ta ratou i wero ai, ka tangi ano ki a ia, me te mea e tangi ana ki tana huatahi, ka pouri ano ki a ia, me te mea e pouri ana ki tana matamua.

11 I taua ra ka nui te tangi i roto i Hiruharama, ka rite ki te tangi i Harararimono i te raorao o Mekirono.

12 A ka tangi te whenua, tenei hapu, tenei hapu, wehe rawa; ko te hapu o te whare o Rawiri wehe rawa, ko a ratou wahine wehi rawa; ko te hapu o te whare o Natana wehe rawa, ko a ratou wahine wehe rawa;

13 Ko te hapu o te whare o Riwai wehe rawa, ko a ratou wahine wehe rawa; ko te hapu o Himei wehe rawa, ko a ratou wahine wehe rawa,

14 Ko nga hapu katoa e toe ana, ko tenei hapu, ko tenei hapu, wehe rawa, me a ratou wahine wehe rawa.
