22 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; Haere ki raro, ki te whare o te kingi o Hura, ka korero i tenei kupu ki reira,
2 Mea atu Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, e te kingi o Hura, e noho na i runga i te torona o Rawiri, a koe, koutou ko ou tangata, ko tou iwi e tomo ana ki enei kuwaha;
3 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Whakaritea te whakawa me te tika, whakaorangia te tangata e pahuatia ana i te ringa o te kaitukino: kaua e mauria kinotia, kaua e whakatupuria kinotia te manene, te pani, te pouaru, kaua hoki e whakahekea te toto harakor e ki tenei wahi.
4 No te mea ki te mahia marietia tenei e koutou, katahi ka tomo mai ki nga kuwaha o tenei whare he kingi e noho ana i runga i te torona o Rawiri, e eke ana ki te hariata, ki te hoiho, a ia, me ana tangata, me tona iwi.
5 Engari ki te kore koutou e whakarongo ki enei kupu, hei oati tenei maku ki ahau ano, e ai ta Ihowa, tera tenei whare e takoto kau.
6 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa mo te whare o te kingi o Hura, Ko Kireara koe ki ahau, a ko te tihi o Repanona; otiia he pono ka meinga koe e ahau hei koraha, hei pa hoki e kore e nohoia.
7 A ka whakaritea e ahau he kaiwhakangaro mou, rite rawa i tana patu, i tana patu: a ka tuaina e ratou ou hita papai, ka maka hoki ki te ahi.
8 A he maha nga iwi e haere ma te taha o tenei pa, a ka mea tena ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa, He aha tenei i meatia e Ihowa ki tenei pa nui?
9 Katahi ratou ka ki ake, Mo ratou i whakarere i te kawenata a Ihowa, a to ratou Atua, a koropiko ana ki nga atua ke, mahi atu ana ki a ratou.
10 Kaua koutou e tangi ki te tupapaku, e uhunga ranei ki a ia: engari kia nui te tangi mo te tangata e haere atu ana; no te mea e kore ia e hoki mai a muri, e kore ano e kite i te whenua i whanau ai ia.
11 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa mo Harumu tama a Hohia, kingi o Hura, i kingi nei i muri i tona papa, i a Hohia, i haere atu nei hoki i tenei wahi; E kore ia e hoki mai ki konei a ake ake:
12 Engari hei te wahi i whakaraua atu ai ia, ka mate ia ki reira, a e kore ia e kite i tenei whenua a ake ake.
13 Aue, te mate mo te tangata e hanga nei i tona whare ki te he, i nga ruma hoki o reira ki te whakawa he; e whakamahi nei i tona hoa, kahore e utua, kahore hoki e hoatu to tana mahi ki a ia;
14 E mea ana, Ka hanga e ahau he whare mahorahora moku, he rarahi nga ruma, pokaia ana he matapihi mona i roto; a ko te hipoki he hita, pania ake ki te whero ngangana.
15 E kingi ranei koe, no te mea e whai ana koe kia pera rawa atu te hita? kihai ianei tou papa i kai, i inu, i whakarite i te whakawa, i te tika? a he pai i reira ki a ia.
16 I whakaritea e ia te whakawa a te ware, a te rawakore; a he pai i reira. He teka ianei ko te mohio tenei ki ahau? e ai ta Ihowa.
17 Kahore hoki ou kanohi, ou ngakau mo tetahi mea ke atu, heoi mo tou apo anake, mo te whakaheke i te toto harakore, mo te tukino, mo te tutu, hei mahi, mau.
18 Mo reira ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei mo Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura; Kahore he tangi mona, he mea, Aue, e toku tuakana! ko tenei ranei, Aue, e te tuahine! kahore ratou e tangi mona, e mea, Aue, te ariki! Aue, tona kororia!
19 Ka tanumia ia ki te tanu o te kaihe, ka toia, ka maka ki waho i nga kuwaha o Hiruharama.
20 E piki ki Repanona tangi ai; kia puaki hoki tou reo i Pahana: tangi mai hoki i Aparimi; kua mongamonga katoa hoki te hunga i aroha ki a koe.
21 I korero ahau ki a koe i te wa o tou rangatiratanga; engari i mea koe, E kore ahau e rongo. Ko tau tikanga tenei no tou tamarikitanga ake, kihai koe i rongo ki toku reo.
22 Ma te hau e whangai au hepara katoa, ka riro hoki te hunga i aroha ki a koe ki te whakarau: katahi rawa koe ka whakama, ka numinumi kau ki tou kino katoa.
23 E te wahine e noho na i Repanona, e hanga na i tou kohanga ki nga hita, ano te nui o te manawapa mou ina tae nga mamae ki a koe, te mamae e rite ana ki to te wahine e whanau ana!
24 E ora ana ahau, e ai ta Ihowa, ahakoa a Konia tama a Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura, ko te mowhiti i runga i toku ringa matau, ka unuhia tonutia atu koe e ahau i reira;
25 A ka hoatu koe e ahau ki te ringa o te hunga e whai ana kia whakamatea koe, ki te ringa ano o te hunga e wehi na koe, ara ki te ringa o Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, ki te ringa hoki o nga Karari.
26 Ka akiritia atu ano koe e ahau me tou whaea i whanau ai koe ki tetahi atu whenua ehara nai i te wahi i whanau ai korua; a mate atu korua ki reira.
27 Engari ko te whenua i okaka tonu ai o raua ngakau kia hoki ki reira, e kore raua e hoki ki reira,
28 Ko tenei tangata, ko Konia, he oko pakaru ranei ai e whakahaweatia ana? he oko kahore e matenuitia ana? he aha i akiritia atu ai, ratou ko ona uri, i maka atu ai ki te whenua kihai i mohiotia e ratou?
29 E te whenua, te whenua, te whenua, whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa.
30 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tuhituhia e koutou tenei tangata, he urikore, he tangata e kore e oti pai tana i ona ra e ora ai: e kore hoki e totika ta tetahi o ona uri e noho ana i runga i te torona o Rawiri, e kingi ana a muri ake nei i roto i a H ura.
Jeremiah 22
New International Version
Jeremiah 22
New International Version
Judgment Against Wicked Kings
22 This is what the Lord says: “Go down to the palace of the king(A) of Judah and proclaim this message there: 2 ‘Hear(B) the word of the Lord to you, king of Judah, you who sit on David’s throne(C)—you, your officials and your people who come through these gates.(D) 3 This is what the Lord says: Do what is just(E) and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor(F) the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow,(G) and do not shed innocent blood(H) in this place. 4 For if you are careful to carry out these commands, then kings(I) who sit on David’s throne will come through the gates of this palace, riding in chariots and on horses, accompanied by their officials and their people. 5 But if you do not obey(J) these commands, declares the Lord, I swear(K) by myself that this palace will become a ruin.’”
6 For this is what the Lord says about the palace of the king of Judah:
“Though you are like Gilead(L) to me,
like the summit of Lebanon,(M)
I will surely make you like a wasteland,(N)
like towns not inhabited.
7 I will send destroyers(O) against you,
each man with his weapons,
and they will cut(P) up your fine cedar beams
and throw them into the fire.(Q)
8 “People from many nations will pass by this city and will ask one another, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this great city?’(R) 9 And the answer will be: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God and have worshiped and served other gods.(S)’”
10 Do not weep for the dead(T) king or mourn(U) his loss;
rather, weep bitterly for him who is exiled,
because he will never return(V)
nor see his native land again.
11 For this is what the Lord says about Shallum[a](W) son of Josiah, who succeeded his father as king of Judah but has gone from this place: “He will never return. 12 He will die(X) in the place where they have led him captive; he will not see this land again.”
13 “Woe(Y) to him who builds(Z) his palace by unrighteousness,
his upper rooms by injustice,
making his own people work for nothing,
not paying(AA) them for their labor.
14 He says, ‘I will build myself a great palace(AB)
with spacious upper rooms.’
So he makes large windows in it,
panels it with cedar(AC)
and decorates it in red.(AD)
15 “Does it make you a king
to have more and more cedar?
Did not your father have food and drink?
He did what was right and just,(AE)
so all went well(AF) with him.
16 He defended the cause of the poor and needy,(AG)
and so all went well.
Is that not what it means to know(AH) me?”
declares the Lord.
17 “But your eyes and your heart
are set only on dishonest gain,(AI)
on shedding innocent blood(AJ)
and on oppression and extortion.”(AK)
18 Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
“They will not mourn(AL) for him:
‘Alas, my brother! Alas, my sister!’
They will not mourn for him:
‘Alas, my master! Alas, his splendor!’
19 He will have the burial(AM) of a donkey—
dragged away and thrown(AN)
outside the gates of Jerusalem.”
20 “Go up to Lebanon and cry out,(AO)
let your voice be heard in Bashan,(AP)
cry out from Abarim,(AQ)
for all your allies(AR) are crushed.
21 I warned you when you felt secure,(AS)
but you said, ‘I will not listen!’
This has been your way from your youth;(AT)
you have not obeyed(AU) me.
22 The wind(AV) will drive all your shepherds(AW) away,
and your allies(AX) will go into exile.
Then you will be ashamed and disgraced(AY)
because of all your wickedness.
23 You who live in ‘Lebanon,[b](AZ)’
who are nestled in cedar buildings,
how you will groan when pangs come upon you,
pain(BA) like that of a woman in labor!
24 “As surely as I live,” declares the Lord, “even if you, Jehoiachin[c](BB) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, were a signet ring(BC) on my right hand, I would still pull you off. 25 I will deliver(BD) you into the hands of those who want to kill you, those you fear—Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Babylonians.[d] 26 I will hurl(BE) you and the mother(BF) who gave you birth into another country, where neither of you was born, and there you both will die. 27 You will never come back to the land you long to return(BG) to.”
28 Is this man Jehoiachin(BH) a despised, broken pot,(BI)
an object no one wants?
Why will he and his children be hurled(BJ) out,
cast into a land(BK) they do not know?
29 O land,(BL) land, land,
hear the word of the Lord!
30 This is what the Lord says:
“Record this man as if childless,(BM)
a man who will not prosper(BN) in his lifetime,
for none of his offspring(BO) will prosper,
none will sit on the throne(BP) of David
or rule anymore in Judah.”
