Heremaia 24
1 I whakakite a Ihowa ki ahau, na, e rua nga kete piki i whakaturia ki mua i te temepara o Ihowa; i muri iho i te whakaraunga a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona i a Hekonia tama a Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura, ratou ko nga rangatira o Hura, ko nga kamura, ko nga parakimete i Hiruharama, i tana kawenga hoki i a ratou ki Papurona.
The Lord schewide to me, and lo! twei panyeris ful of figys weren set bifor the temple of the Lord, aftir that Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, translatide Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and a sutil crafti man, and a goldsmith fro Jerusalem, and brouyte hem in to Babiloyne.
2 He pai rawa nga piki o tetahi o nga kete, he rite tonu ki nga piki matamua: a he kino rawa nga piki o tetahi o nga kete, kahore e taea te kai, i te kino rawa.
And o panyere hadde ful good figis, as figis of the firste tyme ben wont to be; and o panyere hadde ful yuel figis, that miyten not be etun, for tho weren yuel figis.
3 Katahi a Ihowa ka mea ki ahau, He aha tau e kite na, e Heremaia? Ano ra ko ahau, He piki; ko nga piki pai, he tino pai; a, ko nga mea kino, he tino kino, kahore e taea te kai, i te kino rawa.
And the Lord seide to me, Jeremye, what thing seest thou? And Y seide, Figis, goode figis, ful goode, and yuele figis, ful yuele, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis.
4 Na ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea ia,
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
5 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira; Ka penei i nga piki pai nei toku mohio ki te hunga o Hura i whakaraua nei, i unga atu nei e ahau i tenei wahi ki te whenua o nga Karari, hei pai mo ratou.
and seide, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, As these figis ben goode, so Y schal knowe the transmygracioun of Juda, which I sente out fro this place in to the lond of Caldeis, in to good.
6 Ka whakamau tonu atu hoki oku kanohi ki a ratou mo te pai, a ka whakahokia mai ano ratou e ahau ki tenei whenua: ka hanga ano ratou e ahau, e kore hoki e wahia iho; ka whakatokia ratou e ahau, e kore ano e hutia atu.
And Y schal sette myn iyen on hem to plese, and Y schal brynge hem ayen in to this lond; and Y schal bilde hem, and Y schal not distrie hem; and Y schal plaunte hem, and Y schal not drawe vp bi the roote.
7 Ka hoatu hoki e ahau he ngakau ki a ratou kia mohio ki ahau, ko Ihowa ahau: a ka waiho ratou hei iwi maku, a ko ahau hei Atua mo ratou: no te mea ka whakapaua o ratou ngakau ki te hoki mai ki ahau.
And Y schal yyue to hem an herte, that thei knowe me, for Y am the Lord; and thei schulen be in to a puple to me, and Y schal be in to God to hem, for thei schulen turne ayen to me in al her herte.
8 Na mo nga piki kino, e kore nei e taea te kai, i te kino rawa; he pono ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ka pena taku hoatutanga i a Terekia kingi o Hura, ratou ko ana rangatira, ko nga morehu o Hiruharama e mahue ki tenei whenua, e noho ana hoki i te wh enua o Ihipa:
And as the worste figis ben, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis, the Lord seith these thingis, So Y schal yyue Sedechie, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and other men of Jerusalem, that dwelliden in this citee, and that dwellen in the lond of Egipt.
9 Ka tino hoatu hoki ratou e ahau kia poipoia haeretia i roto i nga kingitanga katoa o te whenua, hei he mo ratou; hei hahani, hei whakatauki, hei taunu, hei kanga, i nga wahi katoa e peia atu ai ratou e ahau.
And Y schal yyue hem into trauelyng and turment in alle rewmes of erthe, in to schenschipe, and in to parable, and in to a prouerbe, and in to cursyng, in alle places to whiche Y castide hem out.
10 Ka unga atu ano e ahau he hoari, te hemokai, te mate uruta ki a ratou, kia poto ra ano ratou i runga i te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki a ratou ko o ratou matua.
And Y schal sende in hem a swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, til thei be wastid fro the lond which Y yaf to hem, and to the fadris of hem.
