23 Aue, te mate mo nga hepara e whakakorekore nei, e whakamarara nei i aku hipi i hepara ai, e ai ta Ihowa.
2 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira mo nga hepara e whangai nei i taku iwi, Kua whakamararatia e koutou aku hipi, aia atu ana ratou, kihai hoki i tirotirohia e koutou; nana, ka whiua koutou e ahau mo te kino o a koutou mahi, e ai ta Ihowa.
3 A ka huihuia mai e ahau nga toenga o aku hipi i nga whenua katoa i peia atu ai ratou e ahau, ka whakahokia mai hoki ratou ki o ratou puninga, a ka hua ratou, ka tini.
4 A ka whakaarahia ake e ahau etahi kepara mo ratou, mana ratou e whangai: a e kore ratou e wehi a muri ake nei, e kore e pawera, e kore hoki tetahi e ngaro atu, e ai ta Ihowa.
5 Nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e whakaarahia ai e ahau he Manga tika mo Rawiri, a ka kingi ia, he kingi, a ka mahi i runga i te whakaaro nui, ka whakarite hoki i te whakawa, i te tika ki te whenua.
6 I ona ra ka whakaorangia a Hura, ka noho humarie a Iharaira: a ko tona ingoa tenei e karangatia ai ia, Ko Ihowa to tatou tika.
7 No reira, na, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta Ihowa, e kore ai e korerotia, E ora ana a Ihowa nana nei i kawe mai nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa;
8 Engari, E ora ana a Ihowa nana nei i kawe mai, nana nei i arahi mai nga uri o te whare o Iharaira i te whenua ki te raki, i nga whenua katoa ano i peia atu ai ratou e ahau; a ka noho ratou ki to ratou oneone.
9 Na mo nga poropiti. Kei te maru toku ngakau i roto i ahau, ngaueue ana oku wheua katoa; e rite ana ahau ki te tangata haurangi, ki te tangata kua mate i te waina; he whakaaro hoki ki a Ihowa, he whakaaro ki ana kupu tapu.
10 Kei te kapi hoki te whenua i te tangata puremu; kei te tangi hoki te whenua, he mea mo te kanga; kua maroke nga wahi kai o te koraha; a ko to ratou rerenga he kino, ko to ratou kaha, kahore i tika.
11 No te mea ko te poropiti, ko te tohunga, kua poke ngatahi raua: ae ra, kua kitea e ahau to ratou kino i roto i toku whare, e ai ta Ihowa.
12 Mo reira ka rite to ratou ara ki a ratou ki nga wahi pahekeheke i roto i te pouri: ka aia atu ratou, a ka taka ki reira: ka kawea atu hoki e ahau he kino ki runga ki a ratou, ko te tau hoki e tirotirohia ai ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
13 A kua kite ahau i te wairangi i roto i nga poropiti o Hamaria; na Paara ta ratou poropititanga, a whakapohehetia ana e ratou taku iwi, a Iharaira.
14 Kei nga poropiti ano hoki o Hiruharama, kua kitea e ahau tetahi mea whakahouhou rawa; e puremu ana ratou, a ka haere i runga i te teka, a e whakakahangia ana e ratou nga ringa o nga kaimahi o te kino, e kore rawa ai tetahi e tahuri mai i tona ki no; ki ahau kua rite ratou katoa ki Horoma, a ko nga tangata o reira, koia ano kei o Komora.
15 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano mo nga poropiti: Nana, ka whangaia ratou e ahau ki te taru kawa, a ka whakainumia ratou ki te wai kawa: no te mea i ahau atu i nga poropiti o Hiruharama te takahi tapu puta noa i te whenua katoa.
16 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Kei whakarongo ki nga kupu a nga poropiti e poropiti na ki a koutou: e ako ana ratou i a koutou ki te wairangi: e korero ana ratou i te kite a to ratou ake ngakau, a ehara i te mea na te mangai o Ihowa.
17 E mea tonu ana ratou ki te hunga e whakahawea ana ki ahau, Kua ki mai a Ihowa, Ka mau te rongo ki a koutou; a, ki te hunga katoa e haere ana i runga i nga tikanga pakeke o o ratou ngakau, e mea ana ratou, E kore te kino e tae mai ki a koutou.
18 Ko wai oti i tu i runga i to Ihowa whakaaro, e kite ai, e rongo ai ranei ki tana kupu? ko wai i mahara ki taku kupu, i rongo hoki?
19 Nana, kua puta te tukauati i a Ihowa, koia ano ko tona riri, ae ra, he tukauati powaiwai: tera e pakaru ki runga ki te upoko o te hunga kino.
20 E kore e hoki to Ihowa riri, kia oti ra ano, kia whakapumautia ra ano e ia nga whakaaro o tona ngakau: i nga ra whakamutunga ka tino marama koutou.
21 Kihai ahau i unga i enei poropiti, heoi rere ana ratou; kihai ahau i korero ki a ratou, heoi kei te poropiti ratou.
22 Otiia me i tu ratou i runga i toku whakaaro, kua meinga e ratou taku iwi kia rongo ki aku kupu, kua whakahokia mai e ratou i to ratou ara kino, i te kino hoki o a ratou mahi.
23 He Atua tata ianei ahau, e ai ta Ihowa, a ehara i te Atua i tawhiti?
24 E taea ranei e tetahi te huna i a ia ki nga wahi ngaro, e kore ai ia e kitea e ahau? e ai ta Ihowa. He teka ianei kapi tonu i ahau te rangi me te whenua? e ai ta Ihowa.
25 Kua rongo ahau i nga kupu a nga poropiti, e poropiti teka na i runga i toku ingoa, e mea na, He moe naku, he moe naku.
26 Kia pehea te roa o te mau o tenei i roto i te ngakau o nga poropiti, e poropiti teka na; ara o nga poropiti, e poropiti na i te tinihanga o to ratou ngakau?
27 E whakaaro na, ma a ratou moe e korerotia na e ratou ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa, ka meinga ai taku iwi kia wareware ki toku ingoa, kia pera me o ratou matua i wareware nei ki toku ingoa, i mea nei ki a Paara.
28 Ko te poropiti he moe nei tana, me korero e ia te moe; a ko te tangata i a ia taku kupu, kia pono tana korero i taku kupu. He aha oti ta te papapa ki te witi? e ai ta Ihowa.
29 He teka ianei e rite ana taku kupu ki te ahi? e ai ta Ihowa; ki te hama e wahi nei i te kamaka a mongamonga noa?
30 Mo reira, na, hei hoariri ahau mo nga poropiti, e ai ta Ihowa, e tahae nei i aku kupu i tona hoa, i tona hoa.
31 Nana, hei hoariri ahau mo nga poropiti, e ai ta Ihowa, mo te hunga e whakamahi nei i o ratou arero, e ki nei, E mea ana ia.
32 Nana, hei hoariri ahau, e ai ta Ihowa, mo te hunga e poropiti ana i nga moe teka, a korerotia ana e ratou, whakapohehetia ana e ratou taku iwi ki a ratou korero teka, ki ta ratou whakapehapeha wairangi: otiia ehara ratou i ahau i unga, i whakaha u ranei; e kore rawa hoki tenei iwi e whai pai i a ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
33 A, ki te ui tenei iwi, ki a koe, te poropiti, te tohunga ranei, ki te mea, Tena koa ta Ihowa pikaunga? katahi koe ka ki atu ki a ratou, E tae te pikaunga! Ka maka atu koutou e ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.
34 Na, ko te poropiti, ko te tohunga, ko te iwi ranei, e mea ana, Ko te pikaunga a Ihowa, ka whiua e ahau taua tangata, ratou ko tona whare.
35 Ko te kupu tenei ma koutou ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa, ki tona teina, ki tona tuakana, Tena koa te kupu i whakahokia mai e Ihowa? a, I pehea mai a Ihowa?
36 Kati hoki ta koutou whakahua i te pikaunga a Ihowa; no te mea ko te kupu ake a tenei, a tenei hei pikaunga mana; kua whakarereketia hoki e koutou nga kupu a te Atua, ora, a Ihowa o nga mano, a to tatou Atua.
37 Ko tau tenei e korero atu ai ki te poropiti, He aha te whakautu a Ihowa ki a koe? ko tenei hoki, I pehea mai a Ihowa?
38 Engari ki te mea koutou, Ko te pikaunga a Ihowa; na ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; Mo ta koutou korero i tena kupu, Ko te pikaunga a Ihowa, a kua unga tangata ahau ki a koutou, hei mea, Kaua koutou e ki, Ko te pikaunga a Ihowa;
39 Mo reira, na, ka wareware rawa ahau ki a koutou, ka akiritia atu ano koutou i toku aroaro, me te pa i hoatu e ahau ki a koutou ko o koutou matua.
40 Ka utaina hoki e ahau he ingoa kino ki runga ki a koutou, he mea mau tonu, he whakama hoki e mau tonu ana, a e kore e wareware.

New International Version
The Righteous Branch
23 “Woe to the shepherds(A) who are destroying and scattering(B) the sheep of my pasture!”(C) declares the Lord. 2 Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to the shepherds(D) who tend my people: “Because you have scattered my flock(E) and driven them away and have not bestowed care on them, I will bestow punishment on you for the evil(F) you have done,” declares the Lord. 3 “I myself will gather the remnant(G) of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture,(H) where they will be fruitful and increase in number. 4 I will place shepherds(I) over them who will tend them, and they will no longer be afraid(J) or terrified, nor will any be missing,(K)” declares the Lord.
5 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“when I will raise up for David[a] a righteous Branch,(L)
a King(M) who will reign(N) wisely
and do what is just and right(O) in the land.
6 In his days Judah will be saved
and Israel will live in safety.(P)
This is the name(Q) by which he will be called:
The Lord Our Righteous Savior.(R)
7 “So then, the days are coming,”(S) declares the Lord, “when people will no longer say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’(T) 8 but they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of Israel up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ Then they will live in their own land.”(U)
Lying Prophets
9 Concerning the prophets:
My heart(V) is broken within me;
all my bones tremble.(W)
I am like a drunken man,
like a strong man overcome by wine,
because of the Lord
and his holy words.(X)
10 The land is full of adulterers;(Y)
because of the curse[b](Z) the land lies parched
and the pastures(AA) in the wilderness are withered.(AB)
The prophets follow an evil course
and use their power unjustly.
11 “Both prophet and priest are godless;(AC)
even in my temple(AD) I find their wickedness,”
declares the Lord.
12 “Therefore their path will become slippery;(AE)
they will be banished to darkness
and there they will fall.
I will bring disaster on them
in the year they are punished,(AF)”
declares the Lord.
13 “Among the prophets of Samaria
I saw this repulsive thing:
They prophesied by Baal(AG)
and led my people Israel astray.(AH)
14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem
I have seen something horrible:(AI)
They commit adultery and live a lie.(AJ)
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,(AK)
so that not one of them turns from their wickedness.(AL)
They are all like Sodom(AM) to me;
the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”(AN)
15 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says concerning the prophets:
“I will make them eat bitter food
and drink poisoned water,(AO)
because from the prophets of Jerusalem
ungodliness(AP) has spread throughout the land.”
16 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Do not listen(AQ) to what the prophets are prophesying to you;
they fill you with false hopes.
They speak visions(AR) from their own minds,
not from the mouth(AS) of the Lord.
17 They keep saying(AT) to those who despise me,
‘The Lord says: You will have peace.’(AU)
And to all who follow the stubbornness(AV) of their hearts
they say, ‘No harm(AW) will come to you.’
18 But which of them has stood in the council(AX) of the Lord
to see or to hear his word?
Who has listened and heard his word?
19 See, the storm(AY) of the Lord
will burst out in wrath,
a whirlwind(AZ) swirling down
on the heads of the wicked.
20 The anger(BA) of the Lord will not turn back(BB)
until he fully accomplishes
the purposes of his heart.
In days to come
you will understand it clearly.
21 I did not send(BC) these prophets,
yet they have run with their message;
I did not speak to them,
yet they have prophesied.
22 But if they had stood in my council,(BD)
they would have proclaimed(BE) my words to my people
and would have turned(BF) them from their evil ways
and from their evil deeds.(BG)
23 “Am I only a God nearby,(BH)”
declares the Lord,
“and not a God far away?
24 Who can hide(BI) in secret places
so that I cannot see them?”
declares the Lord.
“Do not I fill heaven and earth?”(BJ)
declares the Lord.
25 “I have heard what the prophets say who prophesy lies(BK) in my name. They say, ‘I had a dream!(BL) I had a dream!’ 26 How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions(BM) of their own minds?(BN) 27 They think the dreams they tell one another will make my people forget(BO) my name, just as their ancestors forgot(BP) my name through Baal worship.(BQ) 28 Let the prophet who has a dream(BR) recount the dream, but let the one who has my word(BS) speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?” declares the Lord. 29 “Is not my word like fire,”(BT) declares the Lord, “and like a hammer(BU) that breaks a rock in pieces?
30 “Therefore,” declares the Lord, “I am against(BV) the prophets(BW) who steal from one another words supposedly from me. 31 Yes,” declares the Lord, “I am against the prophets who wag their own tongues and yet declare, ‘The Lord declares.’(BX) 32 Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams,(BY)” declares the Lord. “They tell them and lead my people astray(BZ) with their reckless lies,(CA) yet I did not send(CB) or appoint them. They do not benefit(CC) these people in the least,” declares the Lord.
False Prophecy
33 “When these people, or a prophet or a priest, ask you, ‘What is the message(CD) from the Lord?’ say to them, ‘What message? I will forsake(CE) you, declares the Lord.’ 34 If a prophet or a priest or anyone else claims, ‘This is a message(CF) from the Lord,’ I will punish(CG) them and their household. 35 This is what each of you keeps saying to your friends and other Israelites: ‘What is the Lord’s answer?’(CH) or ‘What has the Lord spoken?’ 36 But you must not mention ‘a message from the Lord’ again, because each one’s word becomes their own message. So you distort(CI) the words of the living God,(CJ) the Lord Almighty, our God. 37 This is what you keep saying to a prophet: ‘What is the Lord’s answer to you?’ or ‘What has the Lord spoken?’ 38 Although you claim, ‘This is a message from the Lord,’ this is what the Lord says: You used the words, ‘This is a message from the Lord,’ even though I told you that you must not claim, ‘This is a message from the Lord.’ 39 Therefore, I will surely forget you and cast(CK) you out of my presence along with the city I gave to you and your ancestors. 40 I will bring on you everlasting disgrace(CL)—everlasting shame that will not be forgotten.”
