1 “ I permitted Myself to be sought by those who did not ask for Me; I permitted Myself to be found by those who did not seek Me. I said, ‘Here am I, here am I,’ To a nation which did not call on My name.

E rapua ana ahau e te hunga kihai nei i ui ki ahau; e kitea ana ahau e te hunga kihai nei i kimi i ahau: i mea ahau, Tenei ahau, tenei ahau, ki te iwi kihai nei i karangatia toku ingoa ki a ratou.

2 “ I have spread out My hands all day long to a rebellious people, Who walk in the way which is not good, following their own thoughts,

Tuwhera tonu oku ringa i te ra roa nei ki te iwi tutu e haere nei i te ara kahore i pai, e whai ana i o ratou whakaaro ake,

3 A people who continually provoke Me to My face, Offering sacrifices in gardens and burning incense on bricks;

Ki te iwi he whakapataritari tonu nei ta ratou ki ahau ki toku aroaro, he patu whakahere i roto i nga kari, he tahu whakakakara ki runga ki nga aata pereki;

4 W ho sit among graves and spend the night in secret places; Who eat swine’s flesh, And the broth of unclean meat is in their pots.

E noho nei i nga urupa, e moe ana i roto i nga wahi ngaro; e kai ana i te kikokiko poaka, a he hupa no nga mea whakarihariha kei roto i a ratou oko.

5 “ Who say, ‘ Keep to yourself, do not come near me, For I am holier than you!’ These are smoke in My nostrils, A fire that burns all the day.

Ko ta ratou kupu, Tu atu, kaua e whakatata ki ahau; he tapu rawa hoki ahau i a koe. He paowa enei ki toku ihu, he ahi e ka ana, a pau noa te ra.

6 “ Behold, it is written before Me, I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will even repay into their bosom,

Nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki toku aroaro; e kore ahau e whakarongo puku; ae ra, ka utua e ahau, ka utua ki roto ki o ratou uma,

7 B oth their own iniquities and the iniquities of their fathers together,” says the Lord. “Because they have burned incense on the mountains And scorned Me on the hills, Therefore I will measure their former work into their bosom.”

Ara o koutou kino, hui atu ki nga kino o o koutou matua, e ai ta Ihowa, i tahu whakakakara nei ki runga ki nga maunga, i whakaiti nei i ahau i runga i nga pukepuke: mo reira ka matua mehuatia atu e ahau ta ratou mahi ki to ratou uma.

8 T hus says the Lord, “As the new wine is found in the cluster, And one says, ‘Do not destroy it, for there is benefit in it,’ So I will act on behalf of My servants In order not to destroy all of them.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ka rite ki te waina hou e kitea ana i roto i te tautau, a ka kiia, Kaua e whakakorea, he manaaki hoki kei roto; ka pera ano taku e mea ai, he whakaaro ki aku pononga, kei kore ratou katoa.

9 “ I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, And an heir of My mountains from Judah; Even My chosen ones shall inherit it, And My servants will dwell there.

Ka whakaputaina ake ano e ahau he uri i roto i a Hakopa, i roto hoki i a Hura, he tangata mona nei aku maunga: ka riro ano a reira i aku i whiriwhiri ai, ka noho aku pononga ki reira.

10 “ Sharon will be a pasture land for flocks, And the valley of Achor a resting place for herds, For My people who seek Me.

A hei puninga hipi a Harono, hei tapapatanga te raorao i Akoro mo nga kau a taku iwi i rapu nei i ahau.

11 “ But you who forsake the Lord, Who forget My holy mountain, Who set a table for Fortune, And who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny,

Ko koutou ia kua whakarere i a Ihowa, kua wareware ki toku maunga tapu, kua whakapaia e koutou he tepu ma Kara, whakakiia ana e koutou he ringihanga ki a Meni;

12 I will destine you for the sword, And all of you will bow down to the slaughter. Because I called, but you did not answer; I spoke, but you did not hear. And you did evil in My sight And chose that in which I did not delight.”

Ka tukua atu koutou e ahau ma te hoari, ka tuohu koutou katoa, ka tukitukia: no te mea i karanga ahau, a kihai koutou i whakao mai, i korero ahau, a kihai koutou i whakarongo; heoi mahia ana e koutou te kino ki taku tirohanga, whiriwhiria ana e koutou te mea kihai i paingia e ahau.

13 T herefore, thus says the Lord God, “Behold, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry. Behold, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty. Behold, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.

Na ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Nana, ko aku pononga, ka kai ratou, ko koutou ia ka matekai: nana, ko aku pononga, ka inu ratou, ko koutou ia ka matewai; nana, ko aku pononga, ka koa ratou, ko koutou ia ka whakama:

14 “ Behold, My servants will shout joyfully with a glad heart, But you will cry out with a heavy heart, And you will wail with a broken spirit.

Nana, ko aku pononga, ka waiata ratou he koa no te ngakau, ko koutou ia ka tangi i te pouri o te ngakau, ka aue i te maru o te wairua.

15 “ You will leave your name for a curse to My chosen ones, And the Lord God will slay you. But My servants will be called by another name.

A ka waiho ano e koutou to koutou ingoa hei kanga ma aku i whiriwhiri ai, a ka whakamatea koutou e te Ariki, e Ihowa, ka huaina hoki e ia he ingoa ke ki ana pononga:

16 “ Because he who is blessed in the earth Will be blessed by the God of truth; And he who swears in the earth Will swear by the God of truth; Because the former troubles are forgotten, And because they are hidden from My sight! New Heavens and a New Earth

Kia waiho te tangata e manaaki ana i a ia ano i te whenua, mana ia e manaaki i runga i te Atua o te pono; ko te tangata hoki e oati ana i te whenua, ko te Atua o te pono hei oati mana; no te mea ka warewaretia nga raru o mua, a no te mea kei te huna atu i oku kanohi.

17 “ For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind.

Tenei hoki ahau kei te hanga i nga rangi hou, i te whenua hou; e kore ano o mua e maharatia, e kore ano e puta ake ki te ngakau.

18 “ But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing And her people for gladness.

Engari kia koa koutou, kia whakamanamana ki taku e hanga nei ake ake; no te mea tenei ahau te hanga nei i Hiruharama hei whakamanamananga, i tona iwi ano hei koanga ngakau.

19 “ I will also rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in My people; And there will no longer be heard in her The voice of weeping and the sound of crying.

Ka whakamanamana ano ahau ki Hiruharama, ka koa ki taku iwi: e kore ano e rangona i muri te reo e tangi ana, te reo e aue ana i roto i a ia.

20 “ No longer will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, Or an old man who does not live out his days; For the youth will die at the age of one hundred And the one who does not reach the age of one hundred Will be thought accursed.

Kahore o reira kohungahunga he torutoru nei ona ra ake ake, kahore he koroheke kihai i rite ona ra; no te mea kotahi rau nga tau o te taitamariki i tona matenga; ko te tangata hara ia, kotahi rau nei ona tau, he mea kanga.

21 “ They will build houses and inhabit them; They will also plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

Ka hanga whare ano ratou, nohoia iho, ka whakatokia he mara waina, ka kainga ano nga hua.

22 “ They will not build and another inhabit, They will not plant and another eat; For as the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, And My chosen ones will wear out the work of their hands.

E kore e hanga e ratou hei nohoanga iho mo te tangata ke, e kore e whakatokia hei kai ma tetahi atu tangata: no te mea ka rite nga ra o taku iwi ki nga ra o te rakau, a ka roa aku i whiriwhiri ai e ahuareka ana ki te mahi a o ratou ringa.

23 “ They will not labor in vain, Or bear children for calamity; For they are the offspring of those blessed by the Lord, And their descendants with them.

E kore ratou e mauiui noa, e kore e whanau hei mate; no te mea he uri ratou no a Ihowa i manaaki ai, ratou tahi ano ko ta ratou whanau.

24 I t will also come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.

Kahore ano ratou kia karanga noa, kua whakao atu ahau; i a ratou ano e korero ana, ka rongo ahau.

25 T he wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox; and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will do no evil or harm in all My holy mountain,” says the Lord.

Ko te wuruhi, ko te reme, ka kai tahi raua; ko te raiona, ka rite ki te kau, ka kai kakau witi; ko te nakahi, ko te peuhu hei kai mana. E kore ratou e tukino, e whakamate, puta noa i toku maunga tapu, e ai ta Ihowa.
