¹And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand.

¹¶ I maranga ake ano oku kanohi, i titiro, na ko tetahi tangata, he aho ruri i tona ringa.

²And I said, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.

²Na ka mea ahau, E haere ana koe ki hea? A ka mea ia ki ahau, Ki te whanganga i Hiruharama, kia kitea ai he aha tona whanui, he aha tona roa.

³And behold, the angel that talked with me went forth; and another angel went forth to meet him,

³Na ka haere te anahera i korero ra ki ahau, a ka puta ano tetahi anahera ki te whakatau i a ia,

⁴and said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein;

⁴A ka mea atu ki a ia, E oma, korero atu ki te taitama nei, ki atu, Ka nohoia a Hiurharama, ka rite ki nga pa taiepakore, i te tini hoki o te tangata, o nga kararehe i roto:

⁵and I, saith Jehovah, I will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

⁵No te mea ko ahau, ko Ihowa, hei taiepa ahi ahau ki a ia a tawhio noa, a ko ahau hei kororia i roto i a ia.

⁶Ho, ho! flee from the land of the north, saith Jehovah; for I have scattered you abroad as the four winds of the heavens, saith Jehovah.

⁶¶ Ho ho! rere mai i te whenua o te raki, e ai ta Ihowa; kua whakamararatia atu hoki koutou e ahau me te mea ko nga hau e wha o te rangi, e ai ta Ihowa.

⁷Ho! escape, Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.

⁷E Hiona, kawhaki i a koe, e koe e noho mai na i te tamahine a Papurona.

⁸For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: After the glory, hath he sent me unto the nations that made you a spoil; for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.

⁸Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa o nga mano; No muri i te kororia kua unga ahau e ia ki nga tauiwi nana na koutou i pahua; ko te tangata hoki e pa ana ki a koutou, e pa ana ki te whatupango o tona kanohi.

⁹For behold, I will shake my hand upon them, and they shall become a spoil to those that served them: and ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me.

⁹Na, tenei ka ruru toku ringa ki a ratou, a hei taonga parau ratou ma a ratou pononga; a ka mohio koutou na Ihowa o nga mano ahau i unga mai.

¹⁰Sing aloud and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for behold, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith Jehovah.

¹⁰¶ Waiata, kia koa, e te tamahine a Hiona: no te mea na, kei te haere atu ahau, a ka noho ahau i roto i a koe, e ai ta Ihowa.

¹¹And many nations shall join themselves to Jehovah in that day, and shall be unto me for a people; and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me unto thee.

¹¹A he maha nga iwi e whakauru i a ratou ki a Ihowa i taua ra, a ko ratou hei iwi maku: a ka noho ahau i roto i a koe, a ka mohio koe na Ihowa o nga mano ahau i unga mai ki a koe.

¹²And Jehovah shall inherit Judah [as] his portion in the holy land, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.

¹²A ka riro i a Ihowa a Hura hei wahi tupu mana i te whenua tapu, tera ano hoki ia ka whiriwhiri Hiruharama.

¹³Let all flesh be silent before Jehovah; for he is risen up out of his holy habitation.

¹³Whakarongoa, e nga kikokiko katoa, i te aroaro o Ihowa: kua whakaohokia mai hoki ia i tona kainga tapu.
