Amos 9

I saw the Lord standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered.

I kite ahau i te Ariki e tu ana i te taha o te aata. Na ka mea ia, Taia nga puku whakapaipai, kia ngarue ai nga paepae: akina kia pakaru rikiriki ki runga ki te mahunga o ratou katoa; a ka tukitukia e ahau nga whakamutunga o ratou ki te hoari: e kore rawa tetahi kotahi o ratou e rere, e kore hoki tetahi kotahi mawhiti.

Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down:

Ahakoa keri noa ratou, a tae noa ki te reinga, ka tikina atu ratou e toku ringa i reira; ahakoa kake ki te rangi, ka riro iho ano i ahau i reira.

And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them:

Ahakoa piri ratou ki te tihi o Karamere, ka rapua e ahau, ka tangohia mai i reira; ahakoa i huna atu ratou, kei kitea e ahau, ki te takere o te moana, ka whakahaua e ahau te nakahi i reira, a ka ngau ia i a ratou.

And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

Ahakoa haere ratou he parau i te aroaro o o ratou hoariri, ka whakahaua e ahau te hoari i reira hei tukituki i a ratou: a ka u atu oku kanohi ki a ratou mo te kino, kahore hoki mo te pai.

And the Lord GOD of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.

Ko te Ariki hoki, ko Ihowa o nga mano, ko ia te pa ana ki te whenua, rewa tonu iho, tangi ana nga tangata katoa o reira: a ka pari katoa ake ano ko te awa; ka hoki iho ano, ka pera me te awa o Ihipa.

It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name.

Ko ia te hanga nei i ana ruma ki runga ki te rangi, tu ana i a ia tana rua ki te whenua; ko ia te karanga nei ki nga wai o te moana, a ringihia ana e ia ki runga ki te mata o te whenua: ko Ihowa tona ingoa.

Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

He teka ianei, ki taku, he rite koutou ki nga tama a nga Etiopiana, e nga tama a Iharaira? e ai ta Ihowa. He teka ianei naku a Iharaira i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa? nga Pirihitini i Kapatoro? me nga Hiriani i Kiri?

Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.

Nana, kei runga nga kanohi o te Ariki, o Ihowa, i te kingitanga hara, a ka poto atu i ahau i runga i te mata o te whenua; e kore ia e poto rawa i ahau te whare o Hakopa, e ai ta Ihowa.

For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.

No te mea, tenei ahau te whakahau nei, a ka tataria e ahau te whare o Iharaira ki roto ki nga iwi katoa, ka peratia me te witi e tataria ana ki te tatari, e kore ano tetahi pata ririki e taka ki te whenua.

All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.

Ka mate i te hoari te hunga hara katoa o taku iwi, ena e ki na, E kore tatou e mau, e kore ano e haukotia e te kino.

In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:

I taua ra ka ara i ahau te tapenakara o Rawiri kua hinga nei, ka tutakina ano e ahau ona wahi pakaru; ka ara ano i ahau ona wahi i whakahoroa, ki hanga ano e ahau kia rite ki nga ra o mua:

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this.

Kia riro ai i a ratou te toenga o Eroma, o nga iwi katoa ano kua oti toku ingoa te whakahua mo ratou, e ai ta Ihowa, nana nei tenei mahi.

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.

Nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e mau ai te kaikokoti i te kaiparau, e mau ai hoki te kaiwhakato purapura i te kaitakahi karepe; ka maturuturu ano te waina hou o nga maunga, a ka rewa nga pukepuke katoa.

And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

Ka whakahokia mai ano e ahau taku iwi, a Iharaira, i te whakarau, a ka hanga e ratou nga pa kua ururuatia, nohoia iho; ka whakato mara waina ano ratou, ka inu i te waina o aua mara: ka mahi kari ano ratou, a ka kai i nga hua o reira.

And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.

Ka whakatokia ano ratou e ahau ki to ratou oneone; e kore ano ratou e unuhia atu i muri ake nei, i to ratou oneone i hoatu e ahau ki a ratou, e ai ta Ihowa, ta tou Atua.
