Jeremiah 27 ~ Jeremiah 27

picture

1 I n the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,

I te timatanga o te kingitanga o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura ka puta mai tenei kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia, i mea ia,

2 T hus hath Jehovah said unto me: Make thee bonds and yokes, and put them upon thy neck;

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa ki ahau, Hanga he here, he ioka mou, ka whakanoho ai ki tou kaki;

3 a nd send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers that come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah.

Na tukua ki te kingi o Eroma, ki te kingi o Moapa, ki te kingi o nga tama a Amona, ki te kingi o Taira, ki te kingi hoki o Hairona: ma te ringa o nga karere e haere mai ana ki Hiruharama, ki a Terekia kingi o Hura, e mau.

4 A nd give them a charge unto their masters, saying, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Thus shall ye say unto your masters:

Me whakahau ano ratou e koe kia ki atu ki o ratou ariki, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira, Kia penei ta koutou ki atu ki o koutou ariki:

5 I have made the earth, man and beast that are upon the face of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I give them unto whom it seemeth right in mine eyes.

Naku i hanga te whenua, te tangata me te kararehe i runga i te mata o te whenua, na toku kaha nui, na toku ringa maro tonu; na e hoatu ana e ahau ki taku e pai ai.

6 A nd now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts of the field also have I given him to serve him.

Na inaianei kua oti te hoatu e ahau enei whenua katoa ki te ringa o Nepukaneha kingi o Papurona, ki taku pononga; a kua hoatu ano e ahau nga kirehe o te parae ki a ia kia whakamahia e ia.

7 A nd all the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son, until the time of his land also come, when many nations and great kings shall reduce him to servitude.

A ka mahi nga iwi katoa ki a ia, ki tana tama, ki te tama ano hoki a tana tama, kia taka ra ano te wa o tona ake whenua; a hei reira ia whakamahia ai e nga iwi maha, e nga kingi nunui hoki.

8 A nd it shall come to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I visit, saith Jehovah, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.

Na ko te iwi, a ko te kingitanga, e kore e mahi ki taua Nepukaneha kingi o Papurona, e kore hoki e tuku i o ratou kaki ki raro ki te ioka a te kingi o Papurona, ka whiua e ahau taua iwi, e ai ta Ihowa, ki te hoari, ki te hemokai, ki te mate uruta, kia moti ra ano ratou i ahau ki tona ringa.

9 A nd ye, hearken not to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, who speak unto you saying: Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon.

Tena ko koutou, kaua koutou e rongo ki o koutou poropiti, ki o koutou tohunga tuaahu, ki o koutou moemoea, ki o koutou tohunga kapua, ki o koutou tohunga makutu, e korero na ki a koutou, e mea na, E kore koutou e mahi ki te kingi o Papurona:

10 F or they prophesy falsehood unto you, to remove you far from your land, and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.

No te mea e poropiti ana ratou i te teka ki a koutou, he mea kia matara atu ai koutou i to koutou oneone; kia peia ai hoki koutou e ahau, kia ngaro ai.

11 B ut the nation that bringeth its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serveth him, will I let remain still in its own land, saith Jehovah; and they shall till it, and dwell therein.

Engari ko te iwi e tuku ana i o ratou kaki ki raro ki te ioka a te kingi o Papurona, a ka mahi ki a ia, ka waiho ratou e ahau ki to ratou oneone, e ai ta Ihowa; a ka ngakia e ratou, ka noho hoki ratou ki reira.

12 A nd I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.

Na rite tonu ki enei kupu katoa taku i korero ai ki a Terekia kingi o Hura, i mea ahau, Tukua atu o koutou kaki ki raro ki te ioka a te kingi o Papurona; e mahi ki a ia, ki a ratou ko tona iwi, a ka ora koutou.

13 W hy will ye die, thou and thy people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as Jehovah hath spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?

Kia mate koutou hei aha, koutou ko tou iwi i te hoari, i te hemokai, i te mate uruta, i ta Ihowa i ki a mo te iwi e kore nei e mahi ki te kingi o Papurona?

14 A nd hearken not unto the words of the prophets that speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon; for they prophesy falsehood unto you.

Kaua hoki e rongo ki nga kupu a nga poropiti e korero na ki a koutou, e mea na, E kore koutou e mahi ki te kingi o Papurona: e poropiti teka ana hoki ratou ki a koutou.

15 F or I have not sent them, saith Jehovah, yet they prophesy falsely in my name; in order that I should drive you out, and that ye should perish, ye, and the prophets who prophesy unto you.

Ehara hoki ratou i ahau i unga atu, e ai ta Ihowa, otiia kei te poropiti teka ratou i runga i toku ingoa; he mea kia peia ai koutou e ahau, a kia ngaro ai koutou, me nga poropiti e poropiti na ki a koutou.

16 A nd I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Hearken not to the words of your prophets that prophesy unto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of Jehovah's house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy falsehood unto you.

I korero ano ahau ki nga tohunga, ki tenei iwi katoa, i mea, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; Kei rongo koutou ki nga kupu a o koutou poropiti e poropiti na ki a koutou, e mea na, Nana, ka tata te whakahokia mai nga oko o te whare o Ihowa i Papurona: h e poropiti teka hoki ta ratou ki a koutou.

17 H earken not unto them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: wherefore should this city become a waste?

Kei whakarongo ki a ratou; e mahi ki te kingi o Papurona, kia ora ai koutou: kia ururuatia tenei pa hei ahau?

18 B ut if they be prophets, and if the word of Jehovah be with them, let them now make intercession to Jehovah of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of Jehovah, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go not to Babylon.

Otira, ki te mea he poropiti ratou, ki te mea kei a ratou te kupu a Ihowa, me inoi ratou inaianei ki a Ihowa o nga mano, kia kaua nga oko e toe nei ki te whare o Ihowa, ki te whare o te kingi o Hura, ki Hiruharama, e tae ki Papurona.

19 F or thus saith Jehovah of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,

Ina hoki te kupu a Ihowa o nga mano mo nga pou, mo te moana, mo nga turanga, a mo nga toenga o nga oko kua mahue nei ki tenei pa,

20 w hich Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;

Kihai nei i riro i a Nepukaneha kingi o Papurona i tana whakaraunga atu i a Hekonia tama a Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura i roto i Hiruharama ki Papurona, ratou ko nga rangatira katoa o Hura, o Hiruharama;

21 y ea, thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of Jehovah, and in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:

Ae ra, ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira, mo nga oko e toe nei ki te whare o Ihowa, ki te whare hoki o te kingi o Hura, ki Hiruharama;

22 T hey shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be until the day of my visiting them, saith Jehovah; then I will bring them up, and restore them to this place.

Ka kawea aua mea ki Papurona, ka takoto hoki ki reira, taea noatia te ra e pa ai ahau ki a ratou, e ai ta Ihowa; hei reira ka maua mai e ahau, ka whakahokia mai ki tenei wahi.
