Jeremias 30

Ka Whakahuatia te Whakahokinga o Īharaira me Hūrā

1 Ko te kupu i puta mai ki a Heremaia, he mea nā Ihowā, i mea ia: 2 "Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā, a te Atua o Īharaira, e mea ana: Tuhituhia ki te pukapuka ngā kupu katoa i kōrerotia e ahau ki a koe. 3 Tēnei ake hoki ngā rā," e ai tā Ihowā, "e whakahokia mai ai e ahau tāku iwi, a Īharaira rāua ko Hūrā, i te whakarau," e ai tā Ihowā; "ā, ka whakahokia mai rātou e ahau ki te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki ō rātou mātua, ā, ka riro a reira i a rātou."

4 Ā, ko ngā kupu ēnei i kōrerotia e Ihowā mō Īharaira rāua ko Hūrā: 5 Ko te kupu hoki tēnei a Ihowā:

"Kua rongo tātou i te reo o te tūiri,

o te wehi, ehara i te rongo mau.

6 Tēnā rā, ui atu, kia kite ai koutou?

He whānau tamariki rānei tā te tāne?

He aha ahau i kite ai i ngā tāngata katoa

ko ō rātou ringa kei ō rātou hope,

koia anō kei te wahine e whānau ana,

kua puta kē anō ngā kanohi katoa, kua kōmā?

7 Auē! He rā nui hoki taua rā,

kāhore he rite mōna.

Ko te wā hoki ia o tō Hākopa mamae;

otiia ka whakaorangia ia i taua mamae.

8 "Nā, i taua rā," e ai tā Ihowā o ngā mano,

"ka wāhia e ahau tāna ioka i tōu kakī,

ka motuhia hoki ōu here;

e kore hoki ia e whakamahia e ngā tāngata kē i muri iho.

9 Engari, ka mahi rātou ki a Ihowā, ki tō rātou Atua,

ki a Rāwiri hoki, ki tō rātou kīngi

e whakaarahia ake e ahau mō rātou.

10 "Nā reira kaua e wehi, e tāku pononga, e Hākopa," e ai tā Ihowā,

"kaua hoki e pāwera, e Īharaira.

Nanā, ka whakaora hoki ahau i a koe i tawhiti,

i ōu uri anō i te whenua i whakaraua atu ai rātou;

ā, ka hoki mai a Hākopa, ka āta noho, ka whai tānga manawa,

tē ai he kaiwhakawehi mōna.

11 Nō te mea hei hoa ahau mōu,"

e ai tā Ihowā, "hei whakaora i a koe;

ka poto rawa hoki i ahau ngā iwi katoa

kua whakamararatia atu nā koe ki reira,

otiia e kore koe e poto rawa i ahau;

engari ka pākia koe e ahau,

he mea whakarite mārie atu,

e kore anō hoki koe e tukua kia kāhore rawa e whiua."

12 Ko te kupu hoki tēnei a Ihowā:

"Ko tōu pakaru e kore e mahu,

he mamae rawa tōu marūtanga.

13 Kāhore he tangata hei tohe i tāu,

kia takaia ai koe;

kāhore ōu rongoā whakamahu.

14 Ko te hunga katoa i aroha ki a koe kua wareware ki a koe;

kāhore rātou e rapu i a koe;

nō te mea i patua koe e ahau ki te patu a te hoariri,

ki te whiu hoki a te tangata nanakia;

he nui hoki nō tōu kino,

he maha nō ōu hara.

15 He aha koe i tangi ai ki tōu pakaru?

E kore tōu mamae e taea te rongoā.

Mō te nui hoki o tōu kino,

he maha nō ōu hara,

i meinga ai e ahau ēnei mea ki a koe.

16 "Nā reira ko te hunga katoa e kai ana i a koe, ka kainga rātou;

ko ōu hoariri katoa, ko rātou katoa, ka riro ki te whakarau;

ko te hunga e pāhua ana i a koe ka pāhuatia rātou,

ā, ka tukua e ahau hei taonga pārau te hunga katoa e muru ana i a koe.

17 Ka whakahokia atu hoki e ahau te ora ki a koe,

ka rongoātia e ahau ōu marūtanga,"

e ai tā Ihowā;

"nō te mea kua kīia koe e rātou, he peinga,

kua mea: ‘Ko Hiona tēnei e kore nei e rapua e te tangata.’ "

18 Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā:

"Nanā, ka whakahokia mai e ahau i te whakarau ngā tēneti o Hākopa,

ka aroha ki ōna nohoanga;

ā, ka hangā te pā ki runga ki tōna pūranga anō,

ka whakapūmautia anō ngā tikanga o te whare kīngi.

19 Ka puta mai anō i reira te whakamoemiti,

me te reo o te hunga e kata ana:

ā, ka whakanuia rātou e ahau, e kore rātou e torutoru;

ka whakakorōriatia hoki rātou e ahau, ā, e kore rātou e iti.

20 Ā, ka rite ā rātou tamariki ki ō mua;

ka whakapūmautia hoki tō rātou whakaminenga ki tōku aroaro,

ā, ka whiua e ahau te hunga katoa e tūkino ana i a rātou.

21 Ā, ko tō rātou metararahi ko tētahi anō o rātou,

ka puta ake hoki tō rātou kāwana i roto i a rātou;

ā, ka meinga ia e ahau kia whakatata mai,

ā, ka haere mai ia ki ahau;

ko wai oti tēnei kua toa nei ki te haere mai ki ahau?"

e ai tā Ihowā.

22 "Ā, hei iwi koutou māku,

ko ahau hoki hei Atua mō koutou."

23 Nanā, ko te tūkauati a Ihowā,

arā ko tōna riri mura tonu,

te paoho atu nā, he tūkauati e tahi ana:

tērā e āki ki runga ki te māhunga o te hunga kino.

24 E kore e tahuri atu te riri kino o Ihowā,

kia oti rā anō i a ia, kia whakapūmautia rā anō e ia

ngā whakaaro o tōna ngākau.

I ngā rā whakamutunga ka mātau koutou.

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, 2 Thus speaketh Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. 3 For, lo, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith Jehovah; and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.

4 And these are the words that Jehovah spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah. 5 For thus saith Jehovah: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. 6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child: wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? 7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. 8 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondman; 9 but they shall serve Jehovah their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them. 10 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith Jehovah; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. 11 For I am with thee, saith Jehovah, to save thee: for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have scattered thee, but I will not make a full end of thee; but I will correct thee in measure, and will in no wise leave thee unpunished.

12 For thus saith Jehovah, Thy hurt is incurable, and thy wound grievous. 13 There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines. 14 All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not: for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased. 15 Why criest thou for thy hurt? thy pain is incurable: for the greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee. 16 Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that despoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey. 17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith Jehovah; because they have called thee an outcast, saying, It is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.

18 Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be builded upon its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited after its own manner. 19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small. 20 Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all that oppress them. 21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is he that hath had boldness to approach unto me? saith Jehovah. 22 And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

23 Behold, the tempest of Jehovah, even his wrath, is gone forth, a sweeping tempest: it shall burst upon the head of the wicked. 24 The fierce anger of Jehovah shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall understand it.
