Nahum 1

The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

Ko te poropititanga mo Ninewe, Ko te pukapuka o te kite a Nahumu Erekohi.

God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.

He Atua hae a Ihowa, he rapu utu; he rapu utu a Ihowa, a ki tonu i te riri; e rapu utu ana a Ihowa i ona hoariri, a e rongoatia ana e ia he riri mo ona hoariri.

The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

He puhoi a Ihowa ki te riri, he nui tona kaha, e kore rawa e whakaharakoretia e ia te tangata hara. Ko to Ihowa ara kei te tukauati, kei te paroro, ko nga kapua te puehu o ona waewae.

He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.

E riria ana e ia te moana, a meinga ana kia maroke, a whakamaroketia ana nga awa katoa: e ngohe ana a Pahana, me Karamere, a kahakore noa iho te puawai o Repanona.

The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.

Wiri ana nga maunga i a ia, rewa ana nga pukepuke; huamo ake ana te whenua i tona aroaro, ae ra, te ao, me nga tangata katoa e noho ana i reira.

Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.

Ko wai e kaha ki te tu i mua i tona aritarita? ko wai e kaha ki te whakatika, ina mura tona riri; ko te ringihanga mai o tona weriweri, ano he ahi; ko nga kamaka wahia iho e ia.

The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.

He pai a Ihowa, he pa kaha i te ra o te raru; e mohio ana hoki ia ki te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki a ia.

But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.

Otiia ka moti to reira wahi i tana waipuke e ngawha ana; ka whaia ano e ia ona hoariri ki roto ki te pouri.

What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.

Ko te aha ta koutou e whakaaro na ki a Ihowa? ka moti rawa i a ia: e kore e tuaruatia te putanga ake o te aitua.

For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.

No te mea, ahakoa rite ratou ki te tataramoa e whiwhi ana, ahakoa ki nga kopu ano na ta ratou waina, ka tino pau ratou, ano he kakau witi kua maroke.

There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the LORD, a wicked counsellor.

Kua puta mai i roto i a koe tetahi e whakaaro ana i te he mo Ihowa, he kaiwhakatakoto i te whakaaro kino.

Thus saith the LORD; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ahakoa tino kaha ratou, ahakoa tini, heoi ka tapahia ratou, ka pahemo ia. Ahakoa i whiua koe e ahau, e kore koe e whiua e ahau a muri ake nei.

For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.

Na akuanei ahau wahi ai i tana ioka i runga i a koe, momotu ai i ou here.

And the LORD hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.

He whakahau hoki ta Ihowa mou, ara kia kaua e whakatokia tetahi o tou ingoa a muri ake nei: ka hatepea atu e ahau te whakapakoko tarai me te whakapakoko whakarewa i roto i te whare o ou atua: ka hanga e ahau he urupa mou; no te mea he kino koe.

Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.

Nana, kei runga i nga maunga nga waewae o te kaikawe mai i te korero pai, o te kaikauwhau i te rongo mau. Mahia au hakari, e Hura, whakamana au kupu taurangi; no te mea heoi ano haeretanga atu o te tangata kino na waenga i a koe; kua hatepea raw atia atu ia.
