Isaiah 56
Maori Bible
56 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Puritia te whakawa, mahia te tika; no te mea ka tata he putanga mo taku whakaora, he whakakitenga mo toku tika.
2 Ka hari te tangata nana tenei mahi, te tama a te tangata e pupuri nei i a ia, mau tonu; e pupuri ana, a kahore e whakapoke i te hapati, e tiaki ana i tona ringa kei mahi i tetahi he.
3 Kaua hoki te tama a te tangata ke, kua hona nei ki a Ihowa, e korero, e mea, He pono ka wehea rawatia mai ahau e Ihowa i roto i tana iwi; kaua ano te unaka e ki, Nana, he rakau maroke ahau.
4 Ko ta Ihowa kupu hoki tenei mo nga unaka e pupuri ana i aku hapati, e whiriwhiri ana i nga mea e paingia ana e ahau, a e hopu ana i taku kawenata;
5 Ka hoatu e ahau he wahi ki a ratou i roto i toku whare, i roto ano i oku taiepa, he ingoa ano e pai ake ana i o nga tama, i o nga tamahine; he ingoa mau tonu taku e hoatu ai ki a ratou, he mea e kore e hatepea atu.
6 Ko nga tamariki hoki a te tangata ke, kua oti te hono ki a Ihowa, he mea kia mahi ai ratou ki a ia, kia aroha ki te ingoa o Ihowa, kia waiho hei pononga mana; ko te hunga katoa e pupuri ana, a kahore e whakapoke i te hapati, a e hopu ana i taku k awenata;
7 Ka kawea ratou e ahau ki toku maunga tapu, ka whakahari ano ahau i a ratou i roto i toku whare inoi; ka manakohia a ratou tahunga tinana, me a ratou patunga tapu i runga i taku aata; no te mea ka kiia toku whare, He whare inoi mo nga iwi katoa.
8 He kupu tenei na te Ariki, na Ihowa, na te kaikohikohi mai o te hunga o Iharaira i peia atu, Kua kohikohia era ki a ia; ka kohikohi ano ahau i etahi atu ki a ia.
9 E nga kirehe katoa o te parae, haere mai ki te kai, e nga kirehe katoa o te ngahere.
10 Ko ona tutei, he matapo katoa, kahore e mohio; he kuri reokore katoa ratou, e kore e tau; he momoe, he takoto, e matenui ana ki te moe.
11 Ae ra, he kuri apo kai ratou, kahore rawa e makona; he hepara enei e kore e ngoto te matauranga; anga katoa ana ratou ki tona ara, ki tona ara, ki te mea taonga mona i tona wahi, i tona wahi.
12 Ko ta ratou ki, Haere mai, maku e tiki he waina, kia nui ano ta tatou inu i te wai kaha; a ka rite te ra apopo ki tenei ra, he ra kei runga noa atu tona nui.

Salvation for Others
56 This is what the Lord says:
“Maintain justice(A)
and do what is right,(B)
for my salvation(C) is close at hand
and my righteousness(D) will soon be revealed.
2 Blessed(E) is the one who does this—
the person who holds it fast,
who keeps the Sabbath(F) without desecrating it,
and keeps their hands from doing any evil.”
3 Let no foreigner(G) who is bound to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”(H)
And let no eunuch(I) complain,
“I am only a dry tree.”
4 For this is what the Lord says:
“To the eunuchs(J) who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant(K)—
5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls(L)
a memorial(M) and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name(N)
that will endure forever.(O)
6 And foreigners(P) who bind themselves to the Lord
to minister(Q) to him,
to love the name(R) of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(S) without desecrating it
and who hold fast to my covenant—
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain(T)
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(U)
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
a house of prayer for all nations.(V)”(W)
8 The Sovereign Lord declares—
he who gathers the exiles of Israel:
“I will gather(X) still others to them
besides those already gathered.”
God’s Accusation Against the Wicked
9 Come, all you beasts of the field,(Y)
come and devour, all you beasts of the forest!
10 Israel’s watchmen(Z) are blind,
they all lack knowledge;(AA)
they are all mute dogs,
they cannot bark;
they lie around and dream,
they love to sleep.(AB)
11 They are dogs with mighty appetites;
they never have enough.
They are shepherds(AC) who lack understanding;(AD)
they all turn to their own way,(AE)
they seek their own gain.(AF)
12 “Come,” each one cries, “let me get wine!(AG)
Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(AH)
Isaiah 56
King James Version
Isaiah 56
King James Version
56 Thus saith the Lord, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
4 For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
8 The Lord God, which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
12 Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
