1 ¶ Hear this word, ye cows of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

Whakarongo ki tenei kupu, e nga kau o Pahana, i te maunga o Hamaria, e whakatupu kino na i nga ware, e kuru na i nga rawakore, e mea na ki o ratou ariki, Kawea mai, kia inu tatou.

2 T he Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness that, behold, the days shall come upon you that he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity in fishing boats.

Kua oatitia tona tapu e te Atua, e Ihowa, nana, kei te haere mai nga ra ki a koutou e mauria ai koutou e ratou ki te matau, o koutou whakamutunga ki te matau ika.

3 A nd ye shall go forth by the breaches one after another, and ye shall be cast out of the palace, saith the LORD.

Ka haere atu ano koutou na nga pakaru, na nga wahi e hangai mai ana ki tenei, ki tenei; a ka akiri koutou i a koutou ki Haramona, e ai ta Ihowa.

4 G o to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal increase the rebellion; and bring your sacrifices early in the morning and your tithes every three years:

Haere mai ki Peteere, ki reira poka ke ai; ki Kirikara whakanui ai i te poka ke; kawea mai ano a koutou patunga tapu i tenei ata, i tenei ata, a koutou whakatekau, i te toru o nga ra.

5 a nd offer a sacrifice of praise with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free will offerings for this is the way you like it, O ye sons of Israel, said the Lord GOD.

Tapaea ano he whakahere whakawhetai, he mea kinaki ki te rewena, kauwhautia hoki, karangarangatia nga whakahere noa ake: ko ta koutou hoki tenei i pai ai, e nga tama a Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

6 ¶ I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities and want of bread in all your places: yet ye have not returned unto me, said the LORD.

I tukua ano e ahau he parakore mo nga niho ki a koutou i roto i o koutou pa katoa, he tarokore ki o koutou wahi katoa; heoi kihai koutou i tahuri ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

7 A nd also I have withheld the rain from you when there were yet three months to the harvest, and I caused it to rain upon one city and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece upon which it did not rain withered.

I kaiponuhia ano e ahau te ua ki a koutou i te mea kia toru ake marama ko te kotinga witi: i meinga ano e ahau kia ua ki runga ki tetahi pa, a ki tetahi pa i mea ahau kia kaua e ua: ko tetahi wahi i uaina, a ko te wahi kihai i uaina, maroke noa i ho.

8 S o two or three cities wandered unto one city to drink water, but they were not satisfied, yet ye have not returned unto me, said the LORD.

Na kopiko atu ana etahi pa e rua, e toru, ki te pa kotahi ki te inu wai, a kore ake i makona; otiia kihai koutou i hoki mai ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

9 I have smitten you with the east wind and with the caterpillar; your many gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees were devoured by the locust; yet ye have never returned unto me, said the LORD.

Kua patua koutou e ahau ki te ngingio, ki te koriri: nui noa a koutou kari, a koutou mara waina, a koutou piki, a koutou oriwa, pau ake i te whangawhanga: heoi kihai koutou i hoki mai ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

10 I have sent among you the pestilence in the way to Egypt; your young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils; and ye never returned unto me, said the LORD.

I tukua e ahau te mate uruta ki a koutou, he pera tonu me to Ihipa: ko a koutou taitama he mea patu naku ki te hoari, ko a koutou hoiho riro ana i ahau, a meinga ana e ahau te piro o to koutou puni kia kake ake ki o koutou ihu rawa; heoi kihai k outou i hoki mai ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

11 I have overthrown some of you as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the fire; and ye never returned unto me, said the LORD.

I hurihia etahi o koutou e ahau ki raro, i peratia me ta te Atua hurihanga i Horoma, i Komora, a rite tonu koutou ki te mounga i kapohia mai i roto i te weranga: heoi kihai koutou i hoki mai ki ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

12 T herefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel; and because I must do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.

Mo reira ka meatia tenei e ahau ki a koe, e Iharaira, Ka meinga nei tenei e ahau ki a koe, na kia rite ou mea mo tou tutaki ki tou Atua, e Iharaira.

13 F or, behold, he that forms the mountains and creates the wind and declares unto man what is his thought, that makes the darkness into morning and treads above the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of the hosts, is his name.

No te mea, na, ko te kaiwhakaahua o nga maunga, e hanga nei i te hau, e whakaatu nei ki te tangata i tana i whakaaro ai, e mea nei i te ata kia pouri, a e haere ana i runga i nga wahi tiketike o te whenua; ko Ihowa, ko te Atua o nga mano tona in goa.
