Isaiah 42
Maori Bible
42 Nana, taku pononga e tautokona ake nei e ahau, taku i whiriwhiri ai, ahuareka tonu toku ngakau ki a ia: ka waiho e ahau toku wairua ki runga ki a ia; mana e whakapuaki te whakawa ki nga tauiwi.
2 E kore ia e hamama, e kore ano tona reo e ara, e kore e rangona i te ara.
3 Ko te kakaho kope e kore e whatiia porokeretia e ia: e kore hoki te muka whakapaowa e tineia e ia: ka whakapuakina e ia te whakawa i runga i te pono.
4 E kore ia e ngoikore, e kore e ngakaukore, kia takoto ra ano i a ia te whakawa ki te whenua: ka tatari ano nga motu ki tana ture.
5 Ko te kupu tenei a te Atua, a Ihowa, nana nei nga rangi i hanga, i hora; nana nei i takoto ai te whenua me nga mea ano e puta mai ana i reira; nana nei i homai he manawa ki o reira tangata, me te wairua ano ki te hunga e haereere ana i reira.
6 He mea karanga koe naku, na Ihowa, i runga i te tika, maku ano tou ringa e pupuri, maku koe e tiaki, ka hoatu ano koe e ahau hei kawenata ki te iwi, hei marama mo nga tauiwi;
7 Hei whakatitiro i nga kanohi matapo, hei whakaputa mai i nga herehere i roto i te whare e tutaki tonu ana, i te hunga e noho ana i te pouri, i roto i te whare herehere.
8 Ko Ihowa ahau: ko toku ingoa tena: e kore ano e tukua e ahau toku kororia ki tetahi atu, toku whakamoemiti ki te whakapakoko.
9 Nana, kua puta mai nga mea o mua, he mea hou enei e whakaaturia nei e ahau: i te mea kahore ano kia pihi noa ka korerotia nei e ahau ki a koutou.
10 Waiatatia ki a Ihowa he waiata hou, me te whakamoemiti ki a ia i te pito o te whenua, e te hunga e haere ana ki raro, ki te moana, e o reira tini mea, e nga motu, e nga tangata e noho ana i reira.
11 No reira kia nui te reo o te koraha, o nga pa ano o reira, o nga kainga, e nohoia ana e Kerara; kia waiata nga tangata o Here, kia hamama ratou i runga i te tihi o nga maunga.
12 Kia whakakororiatia a Ihowa e ratou, kia kauwhautia te whakamoemiti ki a ia i nga motu.
13 Ka puta mai a Ihowa, ko te ahua kei to te tangata marohirohi; ka whakaoho i te hae ka pera i te tangata whawhai; ka karanga, ae ra, ka hamama; ka kaha noa atu i ona hoariri.
14 Ka roa nei taku whakamorokitanga, i whakarongo puku ahau, whakakoromaki tonu; katahi nei ahau ka aue, ka pera me te wahine e whanau ana; ka whakahotu ahau, ka kahekahe ngatahi.
15 Ka whakaururuatia e ahau nga maunga me nga pukepuke, ka maroke i ahau nga otaota katoa o reira; ka meinga nga awa hei motu, ka maroke ano i ahau nga harotoroto.
16 Ka kawea ano e ahau nga matapo ma te ara kihai nei ratou i mohio: ka meinga te pouri hei marama ki to ratou aroaro, me nga wahi kopikopiko kia tika. Ka meatia enei mea e ahau ki a ratou, e kore ano ahau e whakarere i a ratou.
17 Ka hoki ratou ki muri, nui atu to ratou whakama, to te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki nga whakapakoko, e mea ana ki te mea whakarewa, Ko koutou o matou atua.
18 Whakarongo, e nga turi; titiro, e nga matapo, kia kite ai koutou.
19 Ko wai atu te matapo? ko taku pononga nei anake; ko wai te turi hei rite mo taku pononga i unga nei e ahau? ko wai te matapo hei rite mo te tangata e mau nei tana rongo ki ahau? ko wai te matapo hei rite mo ta Ihowa pononga?
20 He maha nga mea e kitea ana e koe, heoi kahore e mahara: e puare ana ona taringa, heoi kahore e rongo.
21 Pai tonu mai a Ihowa, he whakaaro ki tona tika; ka whakanuia e ia te ture, ka whakahonoretia.
22 Ko tenei iwi ia he pahuatanga, he taonga parau; he mea mahanga ratou katoa i roto i nga rua, ngaro tonu i roto i te whare herehere, hei pahuatanga ratou, kahore hoki he kaiwhakaora; hei taonga parau; kahore hoki he tangata e ki ana, Whakahokia.
23 Ko wai i roto i a koutou e whai taringa ki tenei? ko wai e mahara mai, e whakarongo mai, mo nga wa hoki o muri?
24 Na wai a Hakopa i tuku hei taonga parau? a Iharaira hoki hei meatanga ma nga kaipahua? he teka ianei na Ihowa? kua hara nei hoki tatou ki a ia, kinai hoki ratou i pai kia haere i ana ara, kihai i whakarongo ki tana ture.
25 Na reira ringihia ana e ia te aritarita o tona riri ki a ia, me te pakanga kaha; wera ana ia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, te mohio ia; tahuna ana ia, heoi kihai tona ngakau i mahara.
Isaiah 42
New International Version
Isaiah 42
New International Version
The Servant of the Lord
42 “Here is my servant,(A) whom I uphold,
my chosen one(B) in whom I delight;(C)
I will put my Spirit(D) on him,
and he will bring justice(E) to the nations.(F)
2 He will not shout or cry out,(G)
or raise his voice in the streets.
3 A bruised reed(H) he will not break,(I)
and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.(J)
In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;(K)
4 he will not falter or be discouraged
till he establishes justice(L) on earth.
In his teaching(M) the islands(N) will put their hope.”(O)
5 This is what God the Lord says—
the Creator of the heavens,(P) who stretches them out,
who spreads out the earth(Q) with all that springs from it,(R)
who gives breath(S) to its people,
and life to those who walk on it:
6 “I, the Lord, have called(T) you in righteousness;(U)
I will take hold of your hand.(V)
I will keep(W) you and will make you
to be a covenant(X) for the people
and a light(Y) for the Gentiles,(Z)
7 to open eyes that are blind,(AA)
to free(AB) captives from prison(AC)
and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.(AD)
8 “I am the Lord;(AE) that is my name!(AF)
I will not yield my glory to another(AG)
or my praise to idols.(AH)
9 See, the former things(AI) have taken place,
and new things I declare;
before they spring into being
I announce(AJ) them to you.”
Song of Praise to the Lord
10 Sing(AK) to the Lord a new song,(AL)
his praise(AM) from the ends of the earth,(AN)
you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,(AO)
you islands,(AP) and all who live in them.
11 Let the wilderness(AQ) and its towns raise their voices;
let the settlements where Kedar(AR) lives rejoice.
Let the people of Sela(AS) sing for joy;
let them shout from the mountaintops.(AT)
12 Let them give glory(AU) to the Lord
and proclaim his praise(AV) in the islands.(AW)
13 The Lord will march out like a champion,(AX)
like a warrior(AY) he will stir up his zeal;(AZ)
with a shout(BA) he will raise the battle cry
and will triumph over his enemies.(BB)
14 “For a long time I have kept silent,(BC)
I have been quiet and held myself back.(BD)
But now, like a woman in childbirth,
I cry out, I gasp and pant.(BE)
15 I will lay waste(BF) the mountains(BG) and hills
and dry up all their vegetation;
I will turn rivers into islands
and dry up(BH) the pools.
16 I will lead(BI) the blind(BJ) by ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light(BK) before them
and make the rough places smooth.(BL)
These are the things I will do;
I will not forsake(BM) them.
17 But those who trust in idols,
who say to images, ‘You are our gods,’(BN)
will be turned back in utter shame.(BO)
Israel Blind and Deaf
18 “Hear, you deaf;(BP)
look, you blind, and see!
19 Who is blind(BQ) but my servant,(BR)
and deaf like the messenger(BS) I send?
Who is blind like the one in covenant(BT) with me,
blind like the servant of the Lord?
20 You have seen many things, but you pay no attention;
your ears are open, but you do not listen.”(BU)
21 It pleased the Lord
for the sake(BV) of his righteousness
to make his law(BW) great and glorious.
22 But this is a people plundered(BX) and looted,
all of them trapped in pits(BY)
or hidden away in prisons.(BZ)
They have become plunder,
with no one to rescue them;(CA)
they have been made loot,
with no one to say, “Send them back.”
23 Which of you will listen to this
or pay close attention(CB) in time to come?
24 Who handed Jacob over to become loot,
and Israel to the plunderers?(CC)
Was it not the Lord,(CD)
against whom we have sinned?
For they would not follow(CE) his ways;
they did not obey his law.(CF)
25 So he poured out on them his burning anger,(CG)
the violence of war.
It enveloped them in flames,(CH) yet they did not understand;(CI)
it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.(CJ)
