1 T he word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who dwelt in the land of Egypt, who dwelt at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

Ko te kupu i puta mai ki a Heremaia mo nga Hurai katoa e noho ana i te whenua o Ihipa, e noho ana i Mikitoro, i Tahapanehe, i Nopo, i te whenua hoki o Patoro; i mea ia,

2 T hus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and behold they are, this day, a waste, and no man dwelleth therein,

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: Kua kite koutou i te kino katoa i takina mai nei e ahau ki runga ki Hiruharama, ki nga pa katoa hoki o Hura; na, i tenei ra he ururua ratou, kahore hoki he tangata e noho ana i reira;

3 b ecause of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense to serve other gods which they knew not, they, ye, nor your fathers.

Mo ta ratou kino i mahia e ratou hei whakapataritari i ahau, i to ratou haerenga ki te tahu whakakakara, a ki te mahi ki nga atua ke, kihai nei ratou i mohio, ratou, koutou ranei, o koutou matua ranei.

4 A nd I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing which I hate!

He ahakoa ra, i unga atu e ahau aku pononga katoa, nga poropiti, ki a koutou, maranga wawe ana ahau ki te unga i a ratou; i mea ahau, Kaua ra e mahia tenei mea whakarihariha e kino nei ahau.

5 B ut they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.

Otiia kihai ratou i rongo, kihai hoki i tahuri mai o ratou taringa, kihai i hoki mai i to ratou kino, ara i te tahu whakakakara ki nga atua ke.

6 A nd my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are become a waste, a desolation, as at this day.

Koia i ringihia atu ai toku weriweri, toku riri, ngiha tonu ki nga pa o Hura, ki nga ara hoki o Hiruharama; na he ururua ratou, he tuhea, koia ano tenei inaianei.

7 A nd now thus saith Jehovah the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Wherefore commit ye great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, infant and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, to leave you no remnant;

Mo reira ko te kupu tenei inaianei a Ihowa, a te Atua o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; He aha koutou i mahi ai i tenei kino nui mo o koutou wairua, ka hatepe atu i a koutou, i nga tane, i nga wahine, i te kohungahunga, i te mea ngote u, i roto i a Hura, a kore iho he toenga o koutou e mahue?

8 p rovoking me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are come to sojourn, that ye should be cut off, and that ye should be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?

I a koutou i whakapataritari na i ahau ki nga mahi a o koutou ringa, i a koutou ka tahu whakakakara nei ki nga atua ke i te whenua o Ihipa, kua haere atu na koutou ki reira noho ai, e hatepea atu ai koutou, e waiho ai koutou hei kanga, hei ingoa kino i roto i nga iwi katoa o te whenua.

9 H ave ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

Kua wareware ranei koutou ki te kino o o koutou matua, ki te kino o nga kingi o Hura, ki te kino hoki o a ratou wahine, ki o koutou na kino, ki te kino hoki o a koutou wahine i mahia nei e ratou ki te whenua o Hura, ki nga ara hoki o Hiruharama?

10 T hey are not humbled unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes which I set before you and before your fathers.

Taea noatia tenei ra kahore ano ratou i whakaiti i a ratou, kahore ano i wehi, kahore i haere i runga i taku ture, i runga i aku tikanga i hoatu e ahau ki to koutou aroaro, ki te aroaro hoki o o koutou matua.

11 T herefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.

Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira: Nana, ka anga ke atu toku mata i a koutou mo te kino, he hatepe i a Hura katoa.

12 A nd I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to enter into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed: in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword by the famine, from the least even unto the greatest; they shall die by the sword and by the famine, and they shall be an execration, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.

Na ka mau ahau ki nga morehu o Hura, kua maro nei o ratou mata ki te haere ki te whenua o Ihipa, ki reira noho ai, a ka poto ratou katoa; ka hinga ratou ki te whenua o Ihipa; ka pau ratou i te hoari, i te hemokai; ka mate ratou, mai i te iti ki te rahi, i te hoari, i te hemokai: a ka waiho ratou hei kanga, hei miharotanga, hei kohukohutanga, hei ingoa kino.

13 A nd I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;

No te mea ka whiua e ahau te hunga e noho ana i te whenua o Ihipa, ka rite ki taku whiunga i Hiruharama ki te hoari, ki te hemokai, ki te mate uruta:

14 a nd none of the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, so as to return into the land of Judah, whither they have a desire to return to dwell there; for none shall return but such as shall escape.

Na ka kore tetahi o nga morehu o Hura i haere nei ki te whenua o Ihipa noho ai e mawhiti, e toe, hei hoki ki te whenua o Hura, ki te wahi e hiahia nei ratou kia hoki ki reira noho ai: na e kore tetahi e hoki ko te hunga anake e mawhiti atu.

15 T hen all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assemblage, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,

Na katahi nga tangata katoa i mohio kua tahu whakakakara a ratou wahine ki nga atua ke, nga wahine katoa hoki e tu mai ana, he nui te huihui, me te iwi katoa hoki e noho ana i te whenua o Ihipa, i Patoro, ka whakahoki ki a Heremaia, ka mea,

16 t he word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of Jehovah, we will not hearken unto thee,

Na, mo te kupu kua korerotia nei e koe ki a matou i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, e kore matou e rongo ki a koe.

17 b ut we will certainly do every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and we had plenty of bread, and were well, and saw no evil.

Engari ka tino mahi matou i nga mea katoa i puaki i o matou mangai, ka tahu whakakakara ki te kuini o te rangi, ka riringi ano i nga ringihanga ki a ia, ka pera me ta matou, me ta o matou matua, me ta o matou kingi, me ta o matou rangatira i nga pa o Hura, i nga ara o Hiruharama: i makona hoki matou i reira i te kai, i pai hoki matou, a kihai i kite i te he.

18 B ut since we left off burning incense to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out drink-offerings to her, we have wanted everything, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.

Otiia no te mutunga o ta matou tahu whakakakara ki te kuini o te rangi, o ta matou ringihanga i nga ringihanga ki a ia, kua kore nga mea katoa, i a matou, a poto iho matou i te hoari, i te hemokai.

19 A nd when we burned incense to the queen of the heavens and poured out drink-offerings to her, did we make for her cakes to portray her, and pour out drink-offerings to her, without our husbands?

A, i a matou i tahu whakakakara ai ki te kuini o te rangi, i riringi ai hoki i nga ringihanga ki a ia, e ngaro ana ranei a matou tane i a matou e hanga ana i nga keke nana, hei karakia ki a ia; i a matou hoki i riringi ai i nga ringihanga mana?

20 A nd Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people that had given him that answer, saying,

Katahi a Heremaia ka korero ki te iwi katoa, ki nga tane, ki nga wahine, ki te iwi katoa ano nana taua kupu whakautu ki a ia, ka mea,

21 I s it not the incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye and your fathers, your kings and your princes and the people of the land, that Jehovah remembered, and that came into his mind?

Ko te whakakakara i tahuna ra e koutou ki nga pa o Hura, ki nga ara hoki o Hiruharama, e koutou, e o koutou matua, e o koutou kingi, e o koutou rangatira, e te iwi hoki o te whenua, kihai ianei ena mea i maharatia e Ihowa, kihai ianei i puta ake ki tona ngakau?

22 A nd Jehovah could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, because of the abominations that ye had committed; and your land is become a waste, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as at this day.

A te ahei a Ihowa te whakamanawanui tonu i te kino o a koutou hanga, i nga mea whakarihariha i mahia e koutou; heoi kua ururua to koutou whenua, kua waiho hei miharotanga, hei kohukohutanga, te ai te tangata hei noho, koia ano tenei inaianei.

23 B ecause ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil hath come upon you, as at this day.

No te mea kua tahu koutou i te whakakakara, kua hara hoki ki a Ihowa, a kihai i rongo ki te reo o Ihowa, kihai hoki i haere i runga i tana ture, i runga i ana tikanga, i runga i ana whakaatu; mo reira i tutaki ai tenei he ki a koutou, koia ano t enei inaianei.

24 A nd Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt.

I mea atu ano a Heremaia ki te iwi katoa, ki nga wahine katoa hoki, Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, e Hura katoa i te whenua o Ihipa nei:

25 T hus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, We will certainly perform our vows which we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her. Ye will certainly establish your vows, and entirely perform your vows.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, a te Atua o Iharaira; e ki ana ia: Ko koutou, me a koutou wahine, kua korero o koutou mangai, kua rite ano i o koutou ringa te kupu, Ka mahia marietia e matou a matou kupu taurangi i korerotia e matou, kia ta hu whakakakara ki te kuini o te rangi, kia riringi i nga ringihanga ki a ia: tena whakaungia a koutou kupu taurangi, mahia hoki a koutou kupu taurangi.

26 T herefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Jehovah, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, the Lord Jehovah liveth.

Mo reira whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, e Hura katoa e noho nei i te whenua o Ihipa: Nana, kua oatitia e ahau toku ingoa nui, e ai ta Ihowa, e kore toku ingoa e whakahuatia a muri ake nei e te mangai o tetahi tangata o Hura i te whenua katoa o I hipa, e kore e kiia, E ora ana te Ariki, a Ihowa.

27 B ehold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.

Nana, kei te tirotiro ahau i a ratou mo te kino, ehara i te mea hei pai: a, ko nga tangata katoa o Hura i te whenua o Ihipa, ka poto i te hoari, i te hemokai hoki, a moti noa ratou.

28 A nd they that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, a very small company; and all the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine or theirs.

A, ko nga morehu i te hoari, ka hoki atu i te whenua o Ihipa ki te whenua o Hura, he hunga torutoru; a ka mohio nga morehu katoa o Hura i haere nei ki te whenua o Ihipa noho ai, ko ta wai kupu e tu, ko taku ranei, ko ta ratou ranei.

29 A nd this shall be the sign unto you, saith Jehovah, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall certainly stand against you for evil:

A ko te tohu tenei ki a koutou, e ai ta Ihowa, ka whiua koutou e ahau ki tenei wahi, kia mohio ai koutou ka mau tonu aku kupu ki te kino mo koutou.

30 t hus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will give Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ka hoatu e ahau a Parao Hopara kingi o Ihipa ki te ringa o ona hoariri, ki te ringa hoki o te hunga e whai ana kia whakamatea ia; ka rite ano ki taku hoatutanga i a Terekia kingi o Hura ki te ringa o Nepukareha ki ngi o Papurona, o tona hoariri i whai nei kia whakamatea ia.
