¹And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

¹¶ Na i te wha o nga tau o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura, ka puta mai tenei kupu ki a Heremaia na Ihowa; i mea ia,

²Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.

²Tikina tetahi pukapuka mau, ka tuhituhi ki reira i nga kupu katoa i korerotia e ahau ki a koe mo Iharaira, mo Hura, mo nga iwi katoa hoki, o te ra ano i korero ai ahau ki a koe, o nga ra i a Hohia a tae noa ki tenei ra.

³It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.

³Tera pea te whare o Hura e rongo ki te kino katoa e whakaaro nei ahau kia meatia ki a ratou; kia tahuri ratou, ia tangata, ia tangata, i o ratou ara kino; a tera e murua e ahau to ratou he, to ratou hara.

⁴Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.

⁴Katahi a Heremaia ka karanga ki a Paruku, tama a Neria: na ka tuhituhia e Paruku ki te pukapuka no te mangai o Heremaia, nga kupu katoa a Ihowa i korero ai ki a ia.

⁵And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD:

⁵Na ka whakahau a Heremaia i a Paruku, ka mea, Kua tutakina ahau: e kore e ahei i ahau te haere ki te whare o Ihowa.

⁶Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of the people in the LORD's house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.

⁶No reira haere koe, ka korero i te pukapuka i tuhituhia e koe, ko taku i korero ai, ko nga kupu a Ihowa, ki nga taringa o te iwi i te whare o Ihowa i te ra nohopuku: me korero ano e koe ki nga taringa o Hura katoa e haere mai ana i o ratou pa.

⁷It may be they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will return every one from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that the LORD hath pronounced against this people.

⁷Tera pea ka takoto ta ratou inoi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a ka hoki ratou i tona ara kino, i tona ara kino: he nui hoki te riri, he nui te weriweri i korerotia e Ihowa mo tenei iwi.

⁸And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the LORD in the LORD's house.

⁸Na meatia ana e Paruku tama a Neria nga mea katoa i whakahaua ai ia e Heremaia poropiti, korerotia ana e ia i roto i te pukapuka nga kupu a Ihowa i te whare o Ihowa.

⁹And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.

⁹¶ Na i te rima o nga tau o Iehoiakimi tama a Hohia kingi o Hura, i te iwa o nga marama, ka karangatia e ratou he nohopuku ki te aroaro o Ihowa mo te iwi katoa i Hiruharama, mo te iwi katoa hoki i haere mai i nga pa o Hura ki Hiruharama.

¹⁰Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD's house, in the ears of all the people.

¹⁰Katahi ka korerotia e Paruku i roto i te pukapuka nga kupu a Heremaia i roto i te whare o Ihowa, i te ruma o te kaituhituhi, o Kemaria tama a Hapana, i te marae o runga, i te kuwaha o te keti hou o te whare o Ihowa, me te whakarongo ano te iwi k atoa.

¹¹When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,

¹¹A, no te rongonga o Mikaia tama a Kemaria, tama a Hapana, ki nga kupu katoa a Ihowa i roto i te pukapuka,

¹²Then he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.

¹²Ka haere ia ki raro, ki te whare o te kingi, ki te ruma o te kaituhituhi, na, i reira nga rangatira katoa e noho ana, a Erihama kaituhituhi, ratou ko Teraia tama a Hemaia, ko Erenatana tama a Akaporo, ko Kemaria tama a Hapana, ko Terekia tama a Hanania, ko nga rangatira katoa ano hoki.

¹³Then Michaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.

¹³Katahi a Mikaia ka whakaatu ki a ratou i nga kupu katoa i rongo ai ia, i te korerotanga a Paruku i te pukapuka ki nga taringa o te iwi.

¹⁴Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.

¹⁴Na reira ka unga atu e nga rangatira katoa a Iehuri, tama a Netania, tama a Heremia, tama a Kuhi, ki a Paruku, hei ki atu, Mauria mai e koe i tou ringa te pukapuka i korerotia na e koe ki nga taringa o te iwi, a ka haere mai. Na mauria ana e Par uku tama a Neria te pukapuka i tona ringa, a haere ana ki a ratou.

¹⁵And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.

¹⁵Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, Tena, e noho, korerotia hoki ki o matou taringa. Heoi korerotia ana e Paruku ki o ratou taringa.

¹⁶Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.

¹⁶Na, i to ratou rongonga ki nga kupu katoa, ka wehi ratou, ka tahuri tetahi ki tetahi, a ka mea atu ki a Paruku, Ka korerotia marietia e matou enei kupu katoa ki te kingi.

¹⁷And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?

¹⁷A ka ui ratou ki a Paruku, ka mea, Tena koa, whakaaturia mai ki a matou, I pehea tau tuhituhi i enei kupu katoa a tona mangai?

¹⁸Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.

¹⁸Ano ra ko Paruku ki a ratou, Na tona mangai enei kupu katoa i korero ki ahau, a tuhituhia iho e ahau ki te mangumangu ki te pukapuka.

¹⁹Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be.

¹⁹Katahi nga rangatira ka mea ki a Paruku, Haere, e huna i a koe, korua ko Heremaia, kaua hoki tetahi e mohio kei hea korua.

²⁰And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the king.

²⁰¶ Na haere ana ratou ki te kingi ki te marae; otiia i waiho e ratou te pukapuka i te ruma o Erihama kaituhituhi; a korerotia ana e ratou nga kupu katoa ki nga taringa o te kingi.

²¹So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe's chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.

²¹Heoi ka unga e te kingi a Iehuri ki te tiki i te pukapuka. Na tikina ana e ia i te ruma o Erihama kaituhituhi; a korerotia ana e Iehuri ki nga taringa o te kingi, ki nga taringa hoki o nga rangatira katoa e tu ana i te taha o te kingi.

²²Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.

²²Na, i te noho te kingi i te whare hotoke i te iwa o nga marama: a he ahi i te kanga ahi e ka ana i tona aroaro.

²³And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.

²³Na, ka toru, ka wha nga wharangi i korerotia e Iehuri, ka tapahia e te kingi ki te maripi a te kaituhituhi, maka atu ana ki te ahi i te kanga ahi, a pau noa te pukapuka katoa i te ahi i roto i te kanga ahi.

²⁴Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.

²⁴Na kahore ratou i wehi, kahore hoki i haehae i o ratou kakahu, te kingi ranei, tetahi ranei o ana pononga i rongo i enei kupu katoa.

²⁵Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll: but he would not hear them.

²⁵Na tera a Eranatana ratou ko Teraia, ko Kemaria, kua tohe ki te kingi kia kaua e tahuna te pukapuka: otiia kihai ia i rongo ki a ratou.

²⁶But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD hid them.

²⁶Na ka whakahaua e te kingi a Ierameere tama a te kingi, ratou ko Heraia tama a Atariere, ko Heremia tama a Apareere kite hopu i a Paruku kaituhituhi, raua ko Heremaia poropiti; otira i huna raua e Ihowa.

²⁷Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,

²⁷Katahi ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Heremaia, i muri i te tahunga a te kingi i te pukapuka, i nga kupu hoki i tuhituhia ra e Paruku i te mangai o Heremaia; i mea ia,

²⁸Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.

²⁸Tikina ano tetahi atu pukapuka, tuhituhia ki reira nga kupu katoa o mua ra, o te pukapuka tuatahi i tahuna ra e Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura.

²⁹And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast?

²⁹Na, ko te kupu mau mo Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: I tahuna e koe te pukapuka nei, i ki koe, He aha i tuhituhia ai e koe ki konei, i ki ai, Ka tino haere mai te kingi o Papurona, ka whakangaro i tenei whenua, ka moti ano i a ia te tangata me te kararehe o konei?

³⁰Therefore thus saith the LORD of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.

³⁰Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa mo Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura; E kore ia e whai tangata hei noho ki te torona o Rawiri: a ka maka atu tona tinana ki te werawera i te awatea, ki te huka i te po.

³¹And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not.

³¹Ka whiua hoki ia e ahau, ratou ko ona uri, ko ana tangata mo to ratou he; a ka kawea mai e ahau ki a ratou, ki nga tangata o Hiruharama, ki nga tangata hoki o Hura, te kino katoa i korerotia e ahau mo ratou, a kihai nei ratou i whakarongo.

³²Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.

³²Na ka tangohia e Heremaia tetahi atu pukapuka, a hoatu ana e ia ki te kaituhituhi, ki a Paruku tama a Neria; nana i tuhituhi ki reira no te mangai o Heremaia nga kupu katoa o te pukapuka i tahuna ra e Iehoiakimi kingi o Hura ki te ahi: a tapirit ia atu ana ki era etahi atu kupu maha pera.
