1 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 E te tama a te tangata, meinga a Hiruharama kia mohio ki ana mea whakarihariha,

“Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations

3 M ea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, ki Hiruharama: Ko tou take, ko tou wahi i whanau ai koe, ko te whenua o te Kanaani: ko te Amori tou papa, a ko tou whaea he Hiti.

and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God to Jerusalem, “Your origin and your birth are from the land of the Canaanite, your father was an Amorite and your mother a Hittite.

4 N a, ko tou whanautanga, i te ra i whanau ai koe, kihai tou uho i tapahia, kihai ano koe i horoia ki te wai kia ma ai; kihai rawa ano koe i meatia ki te tote, kihai rawa i takaia.

As for your birth, on the day you were born your navel cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water for cleansing; you were not rubbed with salt or even wrapped in cloths.

5 K ihai tetahi kanohi i aroha ki a koe, kihai i meatia ki a koe tetahi o enei mea, he mahi tohu ki a koe; heoi he mea maka atu koe ki te mata o te parae, he mea whakarihariha hoki tou tinana i te ra i whanau ai koe.

No eye looked with pity on you to do any of these things for you, to have compassion on you. Rather you were thrown out into the open field, for you were abhorred on the day you were born.

6 N a, i toku haerenga atu ma tou taha, a ka kite ahau i a koe e oke ana i roto i ou toto, ka mea atu ahau ki a koe, Ahakoa kei roto koe i ou toto, e ora; ae ra, i mea atu ahau ki a koe, Ahakoa kei roto koe i ou toto, e ora.

“When I passed by you and saw you squirming in your blood, I said to you while you were in your blood, ‘Live!’ Yes, I said to you while you were in your blood, ‘Live!’

7 I meinga ano koe e ahau kia tini, kia rite ki nga tupu o te mara; heoi kua tokomaha koe, kua nui, kua tae ano koe ki nga whakapaipai ataahua; kua pupuku ou u kua tupu ou makawe; i mua hoki e noho tahanga ana koe, kahore he kakahu.

I made you numerous like plants of the field. Then you grew up, became tall and reached the age for fine ornaments; your breasts were formed and your hair had grown. Yet you were naked and bare.

8 N a, i toku haerenga atu i tou taha, ka kite ahau i a koe, na he wa no te aroha te wa i a koe; na hipokina iho e ahau te remu o toku ki runga ki a koe, uhia ana koe e ahau, i a koe e noho tahanga ana; ae ra, oati ana ahau ki a koe, uru ana taua ki te kawenata, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, a riro mai ana koe i ahau.

“Then I passed by you and saw you, and behold, you were at the time for love; so I spread My skirt over you and covered your nakedness. I also swore to you and entered into a covenant with you so that you became Mine,” declares the Lord God.

9 K atahi ka horoia koe e ahau ki te wai; ae ra, ata horoia atu ana e ahau ou toto i a koe; a pania ana koe e ahau ki te hinu.

“Then I bathed you with water, washed off your blood from you and anointed you with oil.

10 K o taku kakahu mou he mea whakairo; ko aku hu mou he hiako kekeno; ko taku whitiki mou he rinena pai; hipokina ana koe e ahau ki te hiraka.

I also clothed you with embroidered cloth and put sandals of porpoise skin on your feet; and I wrapped you with fine linen and covered you with silk.

11 H e mea whakapaipai ano koe naku ki te whakapaipai, whakanohoia ana e ahau he poroporo ki ou ringa, he hei ki tou kaki.

I adorned you with ornaments, put bracelets on your hands and a necklace around your neck.

12 I kuhua ano e ahau he mowhiti ki tou ihu, he whakakai ki ou taringa, he karauna ataahua ki tou mahunga.

I also put a ring in your nostril, earrings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.

13 H eoi kua oti koe te whakapaipai ki te koura, ki te hiriwa; he rinena pai ano hoki tou kakahu, he hiraka, he mea whakairo hoki; i kai koe i te paraoa pai, i te honi, i te hinu; nui atu tou ataahua, kake ana koe hei kingitanga.

Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your dress was of fine linen, silk and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey and oil; so you were exceedingly beautiful and advanced to royalty.

14 P aku ana tou ingoa ki nga iwi, he ataahua nou; i tino pai rawa hoki, he honore hoki noku i tukua atu e ahau ki a koe, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Then your fame went forth among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was perfect because of My splendor which I bestowed on you,” declares the Lord God.

15 O tiia whakawhirinaki ana koe ki tou ataahua, kairau ana koe, he whakaaro hoki nou ki tou ingoa, ringihia ana e koe ou kairautanga ki te tangata e haere atu ana i tou taha; i a ia tena.

“But you trusted in your beauty and played the harlot because of your fame, and you poured out your harlotries on every passer-by who might be willing.

16 I tikina atu ano e koe etahi o ou kakahu, a mahia ana e koe au wahi tiketike, kotingotingo rawa, hei kairautanga mou: e kore he pena e puta a mua, e kore ano e pena.

You took some of your clothes, made for yourself high places of various colors and played the harlot on them, which should never come about nor happen.

17 I tikina ano e koe au mea whakapaipai, he koura naku, he hiriwa naku, ko aku i hoatu ra ki a koe, a hanga ana e koe etahi whakapakoko tane mau, hei kairautanga mou.

You also took your beautiful jewels made of My gold and of My silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself male images that you might play the harlot with them.

18 I tikina ano e koe ou kakahu whakairo, hei hipoki mo ratou, hoatu ana e koe taku hinu, me taku whakakakara ki to ratou aroaro.

Then you took your embroidered cloth and covered them, and offered My oil and My incense before them.

19 K o taku kai hoki, i hoatu e ahau ki a koe, ko te paraoa pai, ko te hinu, ko te honi i whangaia ai koe e ahau, hoatu ana ano tera e koe ki to ratou aroaro hei kakara reka, a koia ano tera; e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Also My bread which I gave you, fine flour, oil and honey with which I fed you, you would offer before them for a soothing aroma; so it happened,” declares the Lord God.

20 I tikina ano e koe au tama me au tamahine, a taua whanau, patua iho e koe hei kai ma ratou. He iti ianei ou kairautanga,

“Moreover, you took your sons and daughters whom you had borne to Me and sacrificed them to idols to be devoured. Were your harlotries so small a matter?

21 I patua ai e koe aku tamariki, i tukua atu ai ratou, i meatia ratou kia haere na roto i te ahi ki a ratou?

You slaughtered My children and offered them up to idols by causing them to pass through the fire.

22 N a i au mea whakarihariha katoa, i ou kairautanga, kihai koe i mahara ki nga ra o tou tamahinetanga, i a koe e noho tahanga ana, kahore he kakahu, i a koe i oke ra i roto i ou toto.

Besides all your abominations and harlotries you did not remember the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare and squirming in your blood.

23 N a i muri i tou he katoa; aue, te mate mou, aue, te mate mou! e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa,

“Then it came about after all your wickedness (‘Woe, woe to you!’ declares the Lord God ),

24 K ei te hanga koe i te whare tairanga mou, mahia ana e koe he wahi tiketike mou i nga waharoa katoa.

that you built yourself a shrine and made yourself a high place in every square.

25 K ua hanga ano e koe tau wahi tiketike ki nga ahunga katoa o nga ara, meinga ana e koe tou ataahua kia whakariharihangia, whewhera tonu ou waewae ki nga tangata e haere ana i tou taha, whakamaha ana e koe tou kairautanga.

You built yourself a high place at the top of every street and made your beauty abominable, and you spread your legs to every passer-by to multiply your harlotry.

26 K ua kairau ano koe ki nga Ihipiana, ki ou hoa tata, he hunga kikokiko nui; whakamaha ana e koe tou kairautanga, hei whakapataritari i ahau.

You also played the harlot with the Egyptians, your lustful neighbors, and multiplied your harlotry to make Me angry.

27 N a reira, nana, kua totoro atu toku ringa ki runga ki a koe, kua whakaititia ano e ahau nga kai i rite mau, a hoatu ana koe e ahau ki ta ou hoariri i pai ai, ki nga tamahine a nga Pirihitini, e whakama nei ki tou ara puremu.

Behold now, I have stretched out My hand against you and diminished your rations. And I delivered you up to the desire of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd conduct.

28 I kairau ano koe ki nga Ahiriana, he kore hoki nou e ngata; ina, kairau ana koe ki a ratou, otiia kihai koe i ngata.

Moreover, you played the harlot with the Assyrians because you were not satisfied; you played the harlot with them and still were not satisfied.

29 K ua whakamaha ano e koe ou kairautanga ki te whenua o Kanaana a Karari atu ana; heoi kihai ano i ngata i tenei.

You also multiplied your harlotry with the land of merchants, Chaldea, yet even with this you were not satisfied.”’”

30 A no te ngoikore o tou ngakau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, i tau mahinga i enei mea katoa, he mahi na te wahine kairau, na te mea taikaha;

“How languishing is your heart,” declares the Lord God, “while you do all these things, the actions of a bold-faced harlot.

31 I tau hanganga i tou whare tairanga ki te ahunga mai o nga ara katoa, i tau mahinga i tau wahi tiketike ki nga waharoa katoa; kihai tau i rite ki ta te wahine kairau, e whakahawea ana hoki koe ki te utu;

When you built your shrine at the beginning of every street and made your high place in every square, in disdaining money, you were not like a harlot.

32 H e wahine moe hoa, i puremu! e tuku mai ana i nga tangata ke ehara nei i te hoa nona!

You adulteress wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband!

33 E hoatu ana e ratou he mea ki nga wahine kairau katoa: ko koe ia e hoatu ana i ou taonga ki te hunga katoa e hiahia ana ki a koe, a utua ana ratou e koe, he mea kia haere mai ai ratou ki a koe i nga taha katoa ki ou kairautanga.

Men give gifts to all harlots, but you give your gifts to all your lovers to bribe them to come to you from every direction for your harlotries.

34 H e rere ke hoki tau i ta etahi wahine i ou kairautanga, ina kahore tetahi e aru ana i a koe, kairau ai: i te mea hoki ka hoatu e koe he utu, a kahore he utu e homai ki a koe, na ka rere ke tau.

Thus you are different from those women in your harlotries, in that no one plays the harlot as you do, because you give money and no money is given you; thus you are different.”

35 M o reira whakarongo, e te wahine kairau, ki te kupu a Ihowa.

Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.

36 K o te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa. Na kua ringihia atu na tou weriweri, kua kitea ano koe e noho tahanga ana i ou kairautanga ki te hunga i hiahia ki a koe; a he mea ki au whakapakoko whakarihariha katoa, ki te toto hoki o au tamariki i hoatu na e koe ki a ratou;

Thus says the Lord God, “Because your lewdness was poured out and your nakedness uncovered through your harlotries with your lovers and with all your detestable idols, and because of the blood of your sons which you gave to idols,

37 M o reira ka huihuia katoatia e ahau te hunga katoa i hiahia ki a koe, au i ahuareka ai, ratou ko te hunga katoa i aroha ai koe, ko te hunga katoa hoki i kino ai koe; ina, ka huihuia ratou e ahau ki a koe i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha ka whakakite a ano koe e ahau ki a ratou e noho tahanga ana, kia kite ai ratou i ou wahi katoa e takoto kau ana.

therefore, behold, I will gather all your lovers with whom you took pleasure, even all those whom you loved and all those whom you hated. So I will gather them against you from every direction and expose your nakedness to them that they may see all your nakedness.

38 N a ko taku whakawa i a koe ka rite ki te whakawa o nga wahine kua takahi i te ture marena, o nga wahine kua whakaheke toto; a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe te toto o te weriweri, o te hae.

Thus I will judge you like women who commit adultery or shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy.

39 K a tukua ano koe e ahau ki to ratou ringa, a ka whakahoroa e ratou tou whare tairanga, ka wahia au wahi tiketike; ka huia atu ano ou kakahu, ka tangohia au mea whakapaipai, a ka waiho koe kia noho tahanga ana, kahore he kakahu.

I will also give you into the hands of your lovers, and they will tear down your shrines, demolish your high places, strip you of your clothing, take away your jewels, and will leave you naked and bare.

40 K a kawea mai ano e ratou he ropu hei whawhai ki a koe, a ka akina koe ki te kohatu, ka werohia ki a ratou hoari, puta rawa.

They will incite a crowd against you and they will stone you and cut you to pieces with their swords.

41 K a tahuna ano e ratou ou whare ki te ahi, ka mahia ano he whakaritenga ki a koe i te tirohanga a nga wahine tokomaha; a ka meinga e ahau kia mutu ou kairautanga, e kore ano he utu e hoatu e koe a muri ake nei.

They will burn your houses with fire and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women. Then I will stop you from playing the harlot, and you will also no longer pay your lovers.

42 H eoi ka ngata i kona toku riri ki a koe, ka tahuri atu toku hae i a koe, a ka ata noho ahau, e kore ano e riri ki a koe a muri ake nei.

So I will calm My fury against you and My jealousy will depart from you, and I will be pacified and angry no more.

43 N o te mea kihai koe i mahara ki nga ra o tou taitamahinetanga, heoi whakaporeareatia ana ahau e koe ki enei mea katoa; mo reira tenei ahau te hoatu nei i tou tikanga ki runga ki tou mahunga, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; e kore ano tenei weriweri e honoa iho e koe ki au mea whakarihariha katoa.

Because you have not remembered the days of your youth but have enraged Me by all these things, behold, I in turn will bring your conduct down on your own head,” declares the Lord God, “so that you will not commit this lewdness on top of all your other abominations.

44 N ana, ko te hunga katoa e korero ana i nga whakatauki, ko ta ratou whakatauki tenei mou, e mea nei, kei te whaea tonu te rite o tana tamahine.

“Behold, everyone who quotes proverbs will quote this proverb concerning you, saying, ‘ Like mother, like daughter.’

45 K o koe te tamahine a tou whaea, e anuanu ra ki tana tahu, ki ana tamariki hoki; a ko koe te teina o ou tuakana, i whakarihariha nei ki a raua tahu, ki a raua tamariki hoki: he Hiti to koutou whaea, he Amori to koutou papa.

You are the daughter of your mother, who loathed her husband and children. You are also the sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and children. Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

46 N a ko Hamaria tou tuakana, e noho nei i tou taha maui, ratou ko ana tamahine: a, ko tou teina, e noho na i tou taha matau, ko Horoma ratou ko ana tamahine.

Now your older sister is Samaria, who lives north of you with her daughters; and your younger sister, who lives south of you, is Sodom with her daughters.

47 H eoi kihai koe i haere i runga i o raua ara, kihai ano tau mahi i rite ki a raua mea whakarihariha; engari, me te mea nei he mea iti rawa tera, neke noa atu tou tutua i to ratou i ou ara katoa.

Yet you have not merely walked in their ways or done according to their abominations; but, as if that were too little, you acted more corruptly in all your conduct than they.

48 E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, kihai te mahi a tou teina, a Horoma, ratou ko ana tamahine i rite ki tau mahi, ki tau, ki ta au tamahine.

As I live,” declares the Lord God, “Sodom, your sister and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done.

49 N ana, ko te he tenei o tou teina, o Horoma; he whakapehapeha i roto i a ia, i a ratou ko ana tamahine, he takapu ki i te taro, he ngakau warea i te nui taonga; kihai hoki ia i whakau ake i nga ringa o te ware, o te rawakore.

Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, abundant food and careless ease, but she did not help the poor and needy.

50 A i whakakake ratou, i mahi hoki i te mea whakarihariha ki toku aroaro: no reira i unuhia atu ai ratou e ahau, kei taku i kite ai he pai.

Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me. Therefore I removed them when I saw it.

51 K ihai hoki o Hamaria i rite ki te hawhe o ou hara; engari i whakanuia atu e koe au mea whakarihariha i a ratou, ka ai hoki au mea whakarihariha katoa i mahia e koe hei whakatika mo ta tou tuakana, mo ta tou teina.

Furthermore, Samaria did not commit half of your sins, for you have multiplied your abominations more than they. Thus you have made your sisters appear righteous by all your abominations which you have committed.

52 N a ko koe, whakawaha e koe tou na whakama, nau na i whakatika tou teina, tou tuakana; na ou hara i hara ai koe, he nui atu nei te whakarihariha i o raua, ka nui atu to raua tika i tou: ae ra, kia numinumi hoki koe, kia waha i tou whakama, kua wh akatikaia na hoki e koe ta tou teina, ta tou tuakana.

Also bear your disgrace in that you have made judgment favorable for your sisters. Because of your sins in which you acted more abominably than they, they are more in the right than you. Yes, be also ashamed and bear your disgrace, in that you made your sisters appear righteous.

53 N a ka whakahokia raua e ahau i te whakarau, a Horoma, me ana tamahine i te whakarau, a Hamaria me ana tamahine i te whakarau, ko ou whakarau i te whakarau, i roto i a ratou:

“Nevertheless, I will restore their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and along with them your own captivity,

54 K ia mau ai ki a koe tou whakama, kia numinumi kau ai mo nga mea katoa i mea ai koe, i a koe ka waiho na hei whakamanawatanga mo ratou.

in order that you may bear your humiliation and feel ashamed for all that you have done when you become a consolation to them.

55 K a hoki tou teina, a Horoma ratou ko ana tamahine, ki to ratou tu o mua, a ka hoki a Hamaria ratou ko ana tamahine ki to ratou tu o mua, ka hoki ano koutou ko au tamahine ki to koutou tu o mua.

Your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to their former state, and you with your daughters will also return to your former state.

56 K ihai na hoki tou teina, a Horoma, i rangona i roto i tou mangai i te ra i tou whakakake,

As the name of your sister Sodom was not heard from your lips in your day of pride,

57 I te mea kiano tou he i hurahia, i te wa iara o te tawainga a nga tamahine a Hiria, a te hunga katoa i tetahi taha ona, i tetahi taha, a nga tamahine a nga Pirihitini e whakahawea na ki a koe i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.

before your wickedness was uncovered, so now you have become the reproach of the daughters of Edom and of all who are around her, of the daughters of the Philistines—those surrounding you who despise you.

58 K ua mau ki a koe tou he, me au mea whakarihariha, e ai ta Ihowa.

You have borne the penalty of your lewdness and abominations,” the Lord declares.

59 K o te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Ko taku mahi ki a koe ka rite ki tau mahi; kua whakahawea na hoki koe ki te oati, whakataka ana e koe te kawenata.

For thus says the Lord God, “I will also do with you as you have done, you who have despised the oath by breaking the covenant. The Covenant Remembered

60 O tiia ka mahara ano ahau ki taku kawenata ki a koe i nga ra o tou taitamahinetanga, ka pumau ano i ahau he kawenata ki a koe a ake ake.

“Nevertheless, I will remember My covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.

61 H ei reira ka mahara koe ki ou ara, ka whakama, ina riro i a koe ou tuakana, tou teina; a ka hoatu raua e ahau ki a koe hei tamahine, otiia ehara i te mea na tau kawenata.

Then you will remember your ways and be ashamed when you receive your sisters, both your older and your younger; and I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of your covenant.

62 K a pumau ano i ahau taku kawenata ki a koe, a ka mohio koe ko Ihowa ahau;

Thus I will establish My covenant with you, and you shall know that I am the Lord,

63 K ia mahara ai, kia numinumi kau ai koe, kia kaua ai hoki e puaki tou mangai i muri iho, mo tou whakama hoki; ina marie ahau ki a koe, ki nga mea katoa i mea ai koe, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

so that you may remember and be ashamed and never open your mouth anymore because of your humiliation, when I have forgiven you for all that you have done,” the Lord God declares.
