¹Thus saith Jehovah to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him, and I will loose the loins of kings; to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:

¹¶ Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa ki tana i whakawahi ai, ki a Hairuha, he mea pupuri nei naku tona ringa matau, kia pehia ai e ia nga iwi ki raro i a ia; maku ano e wewete to nga hope o nga kingi; ko nga tatau ka whakapuaretia ki tona aroaro; e kore ano nga kuwaha e tutakina.

²I will go before thee, and make the rough places smooth; I will break in pieces the doors of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron;

²Ko ahau e haere i mua i a koe, ki te whakatikatika i nga wahi tapokopoko: ko nga tatau parahi ka pakaru i ahau; ka tapahia ano e ahau nga tutaki rino.

³and I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that it is I, Jehovah, who call thee by thy name, even the God of Israel.

³Ka hoatu ano e ahau ki a koe nga taonga o te pouri, me nga mea huna o nga wahi ngaro, kia mohio ai koe ko Ihowa ahau, e whakahua atu nei i tou ingoa, ko te Atua o Iharaira.

⁴For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.

⁴He whakaaro naku ki taku pononga, ki a Hakopa, ki a Iharaira, ki taku i whiriwhiri ai, na reira koe, tou ingoa, i karangatia ai e ahau: whakahuatia ana e ahau tou ingoa i te mea kahore ano koe kia mohio ki ahau.

⁵I am Jehovah, and there is none else; besides me there is no God. I will gird thee, though thou hast not known me;

⁵¶ Ko Ihowa ahau, kahore atu hoki; kahore ke atu he atua, ko ahau anake: maku koe e whitiki, ahakoa kahore koe i mohio ki ahau:

⁶that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none besides me: I am Jehovah, and there is none else.

⁶Kia mohio ai te hunga i te rawhiti, me o te uru, kahore atu, ko ahau anake. Ko Ihowa ahau, kahore ke atu.

⁷I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things.

⁷Naku te marama i whai ahua ai, naku i hanga te pouri; ko ahau te kaihohou rongo, te kaihanga ano o te kino: ko ahau, ko Ihowa, te kaimahi o enei mea katoa.

⁸Distil, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, that it may bring forth salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up together; I, Jehovah, have created it.

⁸Maturuturu iho, e nga rangi i runga; kia ringihia mai ano he tika e nga kapua; kia puare te whenua, kia hua te whakaora, kia wana ngatahi te tika; naku, na Ihowa, taua mea i hanga.

⁹Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

⁹Aue te mate mo te tangata e totohe ana ki tona Kaiwhakaahua! He maramara rihi i roto i nga maramara rihi o te oneone! E mea ake ranei te paru ki tona kaiwhakaahua, He aha tau e mahi na? e mea ranei tau i hanga ai, Kahore ona ringa?

¹⁰Woe unto him that saith unto a father, What begettest thou? or to a woman, With what travailest thou?

¹⁰Aue te mate mo te tangata e mea ana ki tona papa, He aha tau kua whanau nei? ki te wahine ranei, He aha te mea ka whakamamae na koe?

¹¹Thus saith Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: Ask me of the things that are to come; concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands, command ye me.

¹¹¶ Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, a tona Kaiwhakaahua ano, Uia mai ki ahau nga mea e puta mai a mua; ko nga meatanga ki aku tamariki, ki te mahi hoki a oku ringa, whakahaua mai ahau e koe.

¹²I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens; and all their host have I commanded.

¹²Naku i mahi te whenua, i hanga hoki nga tangata o runga: naku, na oku ringa i hora nga rangi; ko o ratou mano katoa he mea whakahau naku.

¹³I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward, saith Jehovah of hosts.

¹³Naku ia i whakaara ake i runga i te tika, maku ano e whakatikatika ona ara katoa: ko ia hei hanga i toku pa, hei tuku i aku parau kia haere, kahore hoki he utu, kahore he moni whakapati, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano.

¹⁴Thus saith Jehovah, The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, [saying], Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.

¹⁴Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko nga mauiui o Ihipa, ko nga taonga hokohoko o Etiopia, ko nga Tapeani, he tangata roroa, ka tae mai ki a koe, a ka riro i a koe; ka whai ratou i a koe; ka tae mekameka mai, ka piko ki a koe, ka mea, He pono kei roto i a koe te Atua, kahore atu hoki, kahore he Atua.

¹⁵Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

¹⁵He pono he Atua koe e whakangaro ana i a koe, e te Atua o Iharaira, e te Kaiwhakaora.

¹⁶They shall be put to shame, yea, confounded, all of them; they shall go into confusion together that are makers of idols.

¹⁶Ka whakama, ae ra, ka numinumi kau ratou katoa; ka riro ngatahi ki te whakama nga kaimahi o nga whakapakoko.

¹⁷[But] Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be put to shame nor confounded world without end.

¹⁷Ko Iharaira ia, ka ora i roto i a Ihowa, he whakaoranga pumau tonu. E kore koutou e whakama, e kore e numinumi a ake ake.

¹⁸For thus saith Jehovah that created the heavens, the God that formed the earth and made it, that established it and created it not a waste, that formed it to be inhabited: I am Jehovah; and there is none else.

¹⁸Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, a te kaihanga o nga rangi; ko ia te Atua; nana i whakawhaiahua te whenua, nana i mahi; nana i whakapumau, kihai i hanga e ia hei takoto kau, i whakaahuatia e ia hei nohoanga. Ko Ihowa ahau, kahore ke atu.

¹⁹I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness; I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I, Jehovah, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

¹⁹Kihai ahau i korero i te wahi ngaro, i te wahi pouri o te whenua; kihai ahau i mea ki te uri o Hakopa, Rapua ahau, he mea noa iho. Ko taku korero, ko ta Ihowa, kei te tika, e whakaatu ana i nga mea e rite ana.

²⁰Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.

²⁰¶ Huihui, haere mai, whakatata ngatahi mai, e nga oranga o nga iwi: kahore he mohio o te hunga e mau ana i te rakau o ta ratou whakapakoko, e inoi ana ki te atua e kore nei e whakaora.

²¹Declare ye, and bring [it] forth; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath showed this from ancient time? who hath declared it of old? have not I, Jehovah? and there is no God else besides me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none besides me.

²¹Whakaaturia, kawea mai kia tata, kia whakatakoto whakaaro ngatahi ratou: na wai tenei i korero i mua riro na wai i whakaatu i nga wa onamata? He teka ianei naku, na Ihowa? Kore atu hoki he atua, ko ahau anake; he Atua tika, he kaiwhakaora; kahor e ke atu, ko ahau anake.

²²Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else.

²²Tahuri mai ki ahau, kia ora ai koutou, e nga pito katoa o te whenua: ko te Atua hoki ahau, kahore ke atu.

²³By myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from my mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

²³Kua waiho ahau e ahau ano hei oati; kua puta atu te kupu i toku mangai i runga i te tika, e kore ano e hoki mai, ara ka tuturi nga turi katoa ki ahau, ka oati mai ano nga arero katoa;

²⁴Only in Jehovah, it is said of me, is righteousness and strength; even to him shall men come; and all they that were incensed against him shall be put to shame.

²⁴Ka mea mai tetahi ki ahau, Kei a Ihowa anake te tika, te kaha: ka haere mai ki a ia nga tangata, a ko nga tangata katoa i riri ki a ia ka whakama.

²⁵In Jehovah shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.

²⁵Ma Ihowa ka tika ai, ka whakamanamana ai te uri katoa o Iharaira.
