27 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 Kia anga atu akuanei tau tangi, e te tama a te tangata, ki a Taira;
3 Mea atu hoki ki a Taira, E koe e noho nei i te tapokoranga mai o te moana, ko koe nei te kaihokohoko o nga iwi ki nga motu maha, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; E Taira, kua mea na koe, Ko ahau te mea ataahua rawa.
4 Kei waenga moana ou rohe, oti rawa koe te whakaataahua e ou kaihanga.
5 No nga kauri o Heniri nga papa katoa i hanga ai ou kaipuke; i tikina ano he hita i Repanona hei hanga rewa mau.
6 No nga oki o Pahana nga hoe i hanga mau, ou taumanu he mea hanga ki te rei, he mea kua oti te whakanoho ki te ake o nga motu o Kitimi.
7 He rinena pai, he mea whakairo no Ihipa te mea i wherahia e koe hei komaru mou, hei kara mau; ko te hipoki mou, he puru, he papura no nga motu o Eriha.
8 Ko au kaihoe ko nga tangata o Hairona, o Arawara; ko au kaiurungi ko nga tangata whakaaro nui i roto i a koe, e Taira.
9 I roto nga kaumatua o Kepara i a koe, me nga tangata whakaaro nui o reira hei kaimono mau: i a koe nga kaipuke katoa o te moana, me o ratou kaiwhakatere, hei hoko i ou taonga.
10 I roto i tou ope ko Pahia, ko Ruru, ko Putu, he hoia nau: whakairihia ake ana e ratou te puapua me te potae i roto i a koe; he mea whakahonore koe na ratou.
11 I runga i ou taiepa nga tangata o Arawara me tou ope ano a tawhio noa, i roto i ou pourewa nga Kamarimi: whakairihia ana e ratou a ratou whakangungu rakau ki ou taiepa a tawhio noa: oti rawa koe te whakaataahua e ratou.
12 He kaihokohoko a Tarahihi ki a koe, he nui hoki no ou taonga katoa: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga he hiriwa, he rino, he tine, he mata.
13 Ko Iawana, ko Tupara, ko Meheke, he kaihokohoko ratou nau; ko ta ratou i tuku ai i ou kainga hoko, he tangata, he oko parahi.
14 Ko nga tangata o te whare o Tokarama, ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga he hoiho, he hoiho no te whawhai, he muera.
15 He kaihokohoko nau nga tangata o Rerana; he maha nga motu i hokohokona ai nga taonga e koe: kawea mai ana e ratou hei whakawhiti ki a koe, he hoana rei, he eponi.
16 He kaihokohoko nau a Hiria, i te nui hoki o nga mahi a ou ringa; ko ta ratou i tuku ai mo au taonga he emerara, he papura, he mea whakairo, he rinena pai, he kaoa, he rupi.
17 Ko Hura, ko te whenua o Iharaira, ko ratou au kaihokohoko: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i ou kainga hoko he witi no Miniti, he panaka, he honi, he hinu, he pama.
18 He kaihokohoko nau a Ramahiku, he nui no nga mahi a ou ringa, he nui no nga taonga katoa; ko ta ratou, he waina no Herepono, he huruhuru hipi ma.
19 I tuku taonga a Rana, a Iawana, he miro huruhuru, i roto i au hokohokonga: i au taonga hokohoko ko te rino kua oti te mahi, ko te kahia, ko te kakaho kakara.
20 Ko Rerana tau kaihokohoko i nga kakahu utu nui mo nga hariata.
21 Ko Arapia, ko nga rangatira katoa o Kerara, i hokohokona o ratou taonga e koe, nga reme, nga hipi toa, nga koati: ko nga mea ena i hokohoko ai ratou ki a koe.
22 Ko nga kaihokohoko o Hepa, o Raama, he kaihokohoko ano ratou nau: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga ko nga mea pai rawa o nga kinaki reka katoa, ko nga kohatu utu nui katoa, ko te koura.
23 Ko Harana, ko Kane, ko Erene, ko nga kaihokohoko o Hepa, ko Ahuru, ko Kirimara, he kaihokohoko nau.
24 Ko ratou hei hoko i nga mea pai rawa ki a koe, i nga kakahu puru, i te mea whakairo, i nga pouaka kakahu pai, he mea paihere ki te aho, he hita, i roto i ou taonga hoko.
25 Ko nga kaipuke o Tarahihi nga waka harihari i ou taonga: a ka whakakiia koe, ka meinga kia nui rawa tou kororia i waenga moana.
26 I kawea koe e ou kaihoe ki nga wai maha; i pakarua koe e te hau marangai ki waenga moana.
27 Ko ou taonga, ko au hokohokonga, ko au whakawhitiwhitinga, ko au kaiwhakatere kaipuke, ko au kaiurungi, ko au kaimono, me nga kaiwhakawhitiwhiti i ou taonga, me au hoia katoa i roto i a koe, i roto ano i tou hui katoa i waenganui i a koe, ka tak a ratou ki waenga moana i te ra e hinga ai koe.
28 Ka ngateri a waho o te pa i te ngangau, i te hamama o au kaiurungi.
29 Na, ko nga kaihapai hoe katoa, ko nga kaiwhakatere, ko nga kaiurungi katoa o te moana, ka mahuta mai i runga i o ratou kaipuke, ka tu ki te tuawhenua,
30 A ka meinga e ratou to ratou reo mou kia rangona, tiwerawera ana ta ratou tangi, ka opehia ano e ratou he puehu ki o ratou mahunga, ka takaoriori ki te pungarehu.
31 Moremore rawa ratou i te whakaaro ki a koe, he kakahu taratara te whitiki, mamae rawa te ngakau, tiwerawera te tangi e tangi ai ratou ki a koe.
32 I a ratou ano e tangi ana, ka maranga ta ratou tangi apakura mou, ka uhunga ratou ki a koe, ka mea, Ko tehea pa i rite ki Taira, ki tenei i whakawahangutia nei i waenga moana?
33 I te putanga atu o ou taonga i nga moana, he maha nga iwi i makona i tau; i whai taonga nga kingi o te whenua i a koe, i te nui hoki o ou taonga, o ou rawa.
34 I te wa i pakaru ai koe i nga moana, ki nga wahi hohonu o te moana, i taka ou rawa, me tou hui katoa i waenganui i a koe.
35 Ko nga tangata katoa o nga motu, ketekete ana ki a koe, nui atu te wehi o o ratou kingi, ko o ratou mata kohukihuki ana.
36 Ka whakahi mai ki a koe nga kaihokohoko i roto i nga iwi; ka ai koe hei whakawehi; a kore tonu ake koe ake ake.
28 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, mea atu ki te rangatira o Taira: Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kua whakakake na tou ngakau, kua mea, He atua ahau, e noho ana i te nohoanga o te Atua, i waenga moana, ahakoa ki tau ko tou ngakau e rite ana ki to te Atua ngakau:
3 Nana, nui atu ou whakaaro i o Raniera; kahore he mea ngaro e taea te huna i a koe.
4 He nui no ou whakaaro, he matauranga nou i mahia ai e koe he taonga mou, i mahia ai e koe he koura, he hiriwa ki roto ki ou whare taonga.
5 He nui noa atu no ou whakaaro, he hokohoko nau, i whakaraneatia ai e koe ou rawa, a whakakake ana tou ngakau i ou rawa.
6 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kua whai ake na tou ngakau ki to te Atua ngakau;
7 Mo reira tenei ahau te kawe nei i nga tautangata ki a koe, te hunga nanakia rawa o nga iwi; a ka unuhia e ratou a ratou hoari hei whawhai ki te ataahua o ou whakaaro nui, ka whakapokea ano e ratou tou kanapatanga.
8 Ka whakahokia iho koe e ratou ki te poka, a, ko te mate mou, ko nga mate o te hunga e patua ana i waenga moana.
9 E mea ake ano ranei koe ki te aroaro o tou kaipatu, Ko te Atua ahau? otiia he tangata ano koe, ehara koe i te Atua i roto i te ringa o tou kaipatu.
10 Ko tou matenga, ko nga matenga o te hunga kokotikore i te ringa o nga tautangata: naku hoki te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
11 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
12 E te tama a te tangata, kia ara tau tangi mo te kingi o Taira, mea atu hoki ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kei te tino o te pai tau hiri, ki tonu koe i nga whakaaro nunui, pai rerehua te ataahua.
13 I Erene koe, i te kari a te Atua e noho ana; ko tou hipoki ko nga kohatu utu nui katoa, ko te harariu, ko te topaha, ko te taimana, ko te perira, ko te onika, ko te hahapa, ko te hapaira, ko te emerara, ko te kapakara, ko te koura: i whakapaia a no te mahi o au timipera, o au putorino i roto i a koe i te ra i hanga ai koe.
14 Ko koe te kerupa hipoki, te mea i whakawahia; naku ano koe i mea hei pena, i noho ai koe i runga i te maunga tapu o te Atua; i haereere ano koe i roto i nga kohatu ahi.
15 Tapatahi tonu koe i ou ara, i te ra ra ano i hanga ai koe, a taea noatia te kitenga o te he i roto i a koe.
16 He nui no au hokohokonga i ki ai a roto i a koe i te tutu, a hara iho koe; mo reira ka maka atu koe, te mea poke, e ahau i te maunga o te Atua: ka ngaro ano koe, e te kerupa hipoki, i roto i nga kohatu ahi.
17 Kua whakakake tou ngakau ki tou ataahua, na tou kanapatanga i he ai ou whakaaro nui: kua panga koe e ahau ki te whenua, kua tukua koe e ahau ki te aroaro o nga kingi, hei matakitakinga ma ratou.
18 Kua whakapokea e koe ou wahi tapu ki te maha o ou kino, ki te he i a koe i hokohoko ra; mo reira i whakaputaina mai ai e ahau he ahi i roto i a koe, hei kai i a koe, a kua meinga ano koe e ahau hei pungarehu ki runga ki te whenua i te tirohanga a te hunga katoa e kite ana i a koe.
19 Ko te hunga katoa e mohio ana ki a koe i roto i nga iwi ka miharo ki a koe: ka ai koe hei whakawehi, kore tonu ake koe, ake ake.
20 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
21 E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki Hairona, poropititia hoki te he mo reira,
22 Mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri ahau mou, e Hairona; ka whai kororia ano hoki ahau i roto i a koe: a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina mahia e ahau he whakawa i roto i a ia, ina whakatapua ahau i roto i a ia.
23 Ka unga atu hoki e ahau te mate uruta ki a ia, me te toto ki ona ara; ka hinga hoki te hunga i werohia i waenga ona, mea rawa ki te hoari i runga i a ia a tawhio noa; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
24 Kahore hoki he tataramoa ngau a muri ake nei ki te whare o Iharaira, kahore he tumatakuru whakamamae a te hunga katoa i tetahi taha o ratou, i tetahi taha, a te hunga ra i whakahawea ki a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
25 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka oti te whare o Iharaira te kohikohi e ahau i roto i nga iwi i whakamararatia atu ai ratou, a ka oti ahau te whakatapu i runga i a ratou i te tirohanga a nga iwi, ko reira ratou noho ai ki to ratou oneone i hoatu e ahau ki taku pononga, ki a Hakopa.
26 Ka noho ano ratou ki reira, te ai he wehi; ae ra, ka hanga whare ano ratou, ka whakato mara waina, ka ata noho ano hoki, ina mahia e ahau he whakawa ki te hunga katoa i whakahawea ki a ratou i tetahi taha o ratou, i tetahi taha; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ko to ratou Atua.
29 I te tekau o nga tau, i te tekau o nga marama, i te tekau ma rua o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa; poropititia he he mona, mo Ihipa katoa hoki.
3 Korero, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Parao kingi o Ihipa, e te tarakona nui e takoto na i waenganui i ona awa; nana nei te kupu, Naku taku awa, naku ano i hanga hei mea maku.
4 A ka maka e ahau he matau ki ou kauae, ka meinga ano e ahau nga ika o ou awa kia piri ki ou unahi; ka tangohia mai ano koe e ahau i waenganui o ou awa, me nga ika katoa o ou awa e piri ana ki ou unahi.
5 Ka waiho ano koe e ahau, he mea kua maka atu ki te koraha, a koe me nga ika katoa o ou awa; ka hinga koe ki runga ki te mata o te parae; e kore koe e kohikohia, e kore e huihuia: kua tukua atu koe e ahau hei kai ma te kirehe o te whenua, ma te ma nu o te rangi.
6 A ka mohio nga tangata katoa o Ihipa ko Ihowa ahau; he kakaho hoki ratou kua waiho nei hei tokotoko mo te whare o Iharaira.
7 No te hopukanga atu a to ratou ringa i a koe, whati pu koe, haea ana e koe o ratou pokohiwi katoa: i to ratou okiokinga ki runga ki a koe, whati pu koe, wiri ana i a koe o ratou hope katoa.
8 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tenei ahau te kawe nei i te hoari ki runga ki a koe, ka hatepea atu ano e ahau te tangata me te kararehe i roto i a koe.
9 Ka ururuatia ano te whenua o Ihipa, ka tuheatia; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau: mona hoki i ki, Naku te awa, naku ano i hanga.
10 Mo reira hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, mo ou awa, ka meinga ano e ahau te whenua o Ihipa kia ururua rawa, hei tuhea, i te taumaihi o Hewene tae noa atu ki te rohe o Etiopia.
11 E kore tetahi waewae tangata e tika na reira, e kore ano te waewae kararehe e tika na reira, e wha tekau nga tau e kore ai a reira e nohoia.
12 Ka meinga ano e ahau te whenua o Ihipa kia tuheatia i waenganui o nga whenua tuhea, me ona pa i roto i nga pa kua urutuatia, e wha tekau nga tau e tuhea ai: ka marara ano i ahau nga Ihipiana ki roto ki nga iwi, ka titaria ki nga whenua.
13 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, I te mutunga o nga tau e wha tekau ka huihuia mai e ahau nga Ihipiana i roto i nga iwi i whakamararatia atu ai ratou.
14 Ka whakahokia mai e ahau a Ihipa i te whakarau, ka whakahokia ratou ki te whenua o Patoro, ki te whenua i tupu mai ai ratou, a hei kingitanga iti ratou ki reira.
15 Ko te iti rawa ia i roto i nga kingitanga, e kore ano e neke ake i muri nei ki runga ake i nga iwi: maku hoki ratou e whakaiti, e kore ai ratou e whakahaere tikanga i roto i nga iwi.
16 E kore ano e waiho hei okiokinga mo te whare o Iharaira, hei whakamahara ki te he, i a ratou ka anga nei, ka whai i a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
17 Na, i te rua tekau ma whitu o nga tau, i te tuatahi o nga marama, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
18 E te tama a te tangata, he nui te mahi i whakamahia ai tana ope e Nepukareha kingi o Papurona ki Taira: pakira katoa nga matenga, pahore katoa nga pokohiwi: kahore hoki he utu i a ia, ratou ko tana ope mo Taira, mo te mahi i mahi ai ia ki reira.
19 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, ka hoatu e ahau te whenua o Ihipa ki a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, a ka riro i a ia ona mano, ka pahuatia ona taonga; ka murua hoki ana mea, a ko tena hei utu ki tana ope.
20 Kua hoatu e ahau te whenua o Ihipa ki a ia hei utu mo tana mahi i mahi ai ia; ko ta ratou hoki i mahi ai, he mea maku, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
21 A taua ra ka meinga e ahau he haona kia wana mo te whare o Iharaira, ka hoatu ano e ahau ki a koe he kuihitanga mo te mangai i waenganui i a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.

New International Version
A Lament Over Tyre
27 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, take up a lament(A) concerning Tyre. 3 Say to Tyre,(B) situated at the gateway to the sea,(C) merchant of peoples on many coasts, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘You say, Tyre,
“I am perfect in beauty.(D)”
4 Your domain was on the high seas;
your builders brought your beauty to perfection.(E)
5 They made all your timbers
of juniper from Senir[a];(F)
they took a cedar from Lebanon(G)
to make a mast for you.
6 Of oaks(H) from Bashan
they made your oars;
of cypress wood[b] from the coasts of Cyprus(I)
they made your deck, adorned with ivory.
7 Fine embroidered linen(J) from Egypt was your sail
and served as your banner;
your awnings were of blue and purple(K)
from the coasts of Elishah.(L)
8 Men of Sidon and Arvad(M) were your oarsmen;
your skilled men, Tyre, were aboard as your sailors.(N)
9 Veteran craftsmen of Byblos(O) were on board
as shipwrights to caulk your seams.
All the ships of the sea(P) and their sailors
came alongside to trade for your wares.
10 “‘Men of Persia,(Q) Lydia(R) and Put(S)
served as soldiers in your army.
They hung their shields(T) and helmets on your walls,
bringing you splendor.
11 Men of Arvad and Helek
guarded your walls on every side;
men of Gammad
were in your towers.
They hung their shields around your walls;
they brought your beauty to perfection.(U)
12 “‘Tarshish(V) did business with you because of your great wealth of goods;(W) they exchanged silver, iron, tin and lead for your merchandise.
13 “‘Greece,(X) Tubal and Meshek(Y) did business with you; they traded human beings(Z) and articles of bronze for your wares.
14 “‘Men of Beth Togarmah(AA) exchanged chariot horses, cavalry horses and mules for your merchandise.
15 “‘The men of Rhodes[c](AB) traded with you, and many coastlands(AC) were your customers; they paid you with ivory(AD) tusks and ebony.
16 “‘Aram[d](AE) did business with you because of your many products; they exchanged turquoise,(AF) purple fabric, embroidered work, fine linen,(AG) coral(AH) and rubies for your merchandise.
17 “‘Judah and Israel traded with you; they exchanged wheat(AI) from Minnith(AJ) and confections,[e] honey, olive oil and balm(AK) for your wares.(AL)
18 “‘Damascus(AM) did business with you because of your many products and great wealth of goods.(AN) They offered wine from Helbon, wool from Zahar 19 and casks of wine from Izal(AO) in exchange for your wares: wrought iron, cassia(AP) and calamus.
20 “‘Dedan(AQ) traded in saddle blankets with you.
21 “‘Arabia(AR) and all the princes of Kedar(AS) were your customers; they did business with you in lambs, rams and goats.
22 “‘The merchants of Sheba(AT) and Raamah traded with you; for your merchandise they exchanged the finest of all kinds of spices(AU) and precious stones, and gold.(AV)
23 “‘Harran,(AW) Kanneh and Eden(AX) and merchants of Sheba, Ashur(AY) and Kilmad traded with you. 24 In your marketplace they traded with you beautiful garments, blue fabric, embroidered work and multicolored rugs with cords twisted and tightly knotted.
25 “‘The ships of Tarshish(AZ) serve
as carriers for your wares.
You are filled with heavy cargo
as you sail the sea.(BA)
26 Your oarsmen take you
out to the high seas.
But the east wind(BB) will break you to pieces
far out at sea.
27 Your wealth,(BC) merchandise and wares,
your mariners, sailors and shipwrights,
your merchants and all your soldiers,
and everyone else on board
will sink into the heart of the sea(BD)
on the day of your shipwreck.
28 The shorelands will quake(BE)
when your sailors cry out.
29 All who handle the oars
will abandon their ships;
the mariners and all the sailors
will stand on the shore.
30 They will raise their voice
and cry bitterly over you;
they will sprinkle dust(BF) on their heads
and roll(BG) in ashes.(BH)
31 They will shave their heads(BI) because of you
and will put on sackcloth.
They will weep(BJ) over you with anguish of soul
and with bitter mourning.(BK)
32 As they wail and mourn over you,
they will take up a lament(BL) concerning you:
“Who was ever silenced like Tyre,
surrounded by the sea?(BM)”
33 When your merchandise went out on the seas,(BN)
you satisfied many nations;
with your great wealth(BO) and your wares
you enriched the kings of the earth.
34 Now you are shattered by the sea
in the depths of the waters;
your wares and all your company
have gone down with you.(BP)
35 All who live in the coastlands(BQ)
are appalled(BR) at you;
their kings shudder with horror
and their faces are distorted with fear.(BS)
36 The merchants among the nations scoff at you;(BT)
you have come to a horrible end
and will be no more.(BU)’”
A Prophecy Against the King of Tyre
28 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man(BV), say to the ruler of Tyre, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘In the pride of your heart
you say, “I am a god;
I sit on the throne(BW) of a god
in the heart of the seas.”(BX)
But you are a mere mortal and not a god,
though you think you are as wise as a god.(BY)
3 Are you wiser than Daniel[f]?(BZ)
Is no secret hidden from you?
4 By your wisdom and understanding
you have gained wealth for yourself
and amassed gold and silver
in your treasuries.(CA)
5 By your great skill in trading(CB)
you have increased your wealth,(CC)
and because of your wealth
your heart has grown proud.(CD)
6 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Because you think you are wise,
as wise as a god,
7 I am going to bring foreigners against you,
the most ruthless of nations;(CE)
they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom(CF)
and pierce your shining splendor.(CG)
8 They will bring you down to the pit,(CH)
and you will die a violent death(CI)
in the heart of the seas.(CJ)
9 Will you then say, “I am a god,”
in the presence of those who kill you?
You will be but a mortal, not a god,(CK)
in the hands of those who slay you.(CL)
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised(CM)
at the hands of foreigners.
I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
11 The word of the Lord came to me: 12 “Son of man, take up a lament(CN) concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘You were the seal of perfection,
full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.(CO)
13 You were in Eden,(CP)
the garden of God;(CQ)
every precious stone(CR) adorned you:
carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,
topaz, onyx and jasper,
lapis lazuli, turquoise(CS) and beryl.[g]
Your settings and mountings[h] were made of gold;
on the day you were created they were prepared.(CT)
14 You were anointed(CU) as a guardian cherub,(CV)
for so I ordained you.
You were on the holy mount of God;
you walked among the fiery stones.
15 You were blameless in your ways
from the day you were created
till wickedness was found in you.
16 Through your widespread trade
you were filled with violence,(CW)
and you sinned.
So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God,
and I expelled you, guardian cherub,(CX)
from among the fiery stones.
17 Your heart became proud(CY)
on account of your beauty,
and you corrupted your wisdom
because of your splendor.
So I threw you to the earth;
I made a spectacle of you before kings.(CZ)
18 By your many sins and dishonest trade
you have desecrated your sanctuaries.
So I made a fire(DA) come out from you,
and it consumed you,
and I reduced you to ashes(DB) on the ground
in the sight of all who were watching.(DC)
19 All the nations who knew you
are appalled(DD) at you;
you have come to a horrible end
and will be no more.(DE)’”
A Prophecy Against Sidon
20 The word of the Lord came to me: 21 “Son of man, set your face against(DF) Sidon;(DG) prophesy against her 22 and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Sidon,
and among you I will display my glory.(DH)
You will know that I am the Lord,
when I inflict punishment(DI) on you
and within you am proved to be holy.(DJ)
23 I will send a plague upon you
and make blood flow in your streets.
The slain will fall within you,
with the sword against you on every side.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.(DK)
24 “‘No longer will the people of Israel have malicious neighbors who are painful briers and sharp thorns.(DL) Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.
25 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: When I gather(DM) the people of Israel from the nations where they have been scattered,(DN) I will be proved holy(DO) through them in the sight of the nations. Then they will live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.(DP) 26 They will live there in safety(DQ) and will build houses and plant(DR) vineyards; they will live in safety when I inflict punishment(DS) on all their neighbors who maligned them. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.(DT)’”
A Prophecy Against Egypt
Judgment on Pharaoh
29 In the tenth year, in the tenth month on the twelfth day, the word of the Lord came to me:(DU) 2 “Son of man, set your face against(DV) Pharaoh king of Egypt(DW) and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.(DX) 3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Pharaoh(DY) king of Egypt,
you great monster(DZ) lying among your streams.
You say, “The Nile(EA) belongs to me;
I made it for myself.”
4 But I will put hooks(EB) in your jaws
and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales.
I will pull you out from among your streams,
with all the fish sticking to your scales.(EC)
5 I will leave you in the desert,
you and all the fish of your streams.
You will fall on the open field
and not be gathered(ED) or picked up.
I will give you as food
to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.(EE)
6 Then all who live in Egypt will know that I am the Lord.
“‘You have been a staff of reed(EF) for the people of Israel. 7 When they grasped you with their hands, you splintered(EG) and you tore open their shoulders; when they leaned on you, you broke and their backs were wrenched.[i](EH)
8 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will bring a sword against you and kill both man and beast.(EI) 9 Egypt will become a desolate wasteland. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
“‘Because you said, “The Nile(EJ) is mine; I made it,(EK)” 10 therefore I am against you(EL) and against your streams, and I will make the land of Egypt(EM) a ruin and a desolate waste(EN) from Migdol(EO) to Aswan,(EP) as far as the border of Cush.[j](EQ) 11 The foot of neither man nor beast will pass through it; no one will live there for forty years.(ER) 12 I will make the land of Egypt desolate(ES) among devastated lands, and her cities will lie desolate forty years among ruined cities. And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them through the countries.(ET)
13 “‘Yet this is what the Sovereign Lord says: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the nations where they were scattered. 14 I will bring them back from captivity and return them to Upper Egypt,(EU) the land of their ancestry. There they will be a lowly(EV) kingdom.(EW) 15 It will be the lowliest of kingdoms and will never again exalt itself above the other nations.(EX) I will make it so weak that it will never again rule over the nations. 16 Egypt will no longer be a source of confidence(EY) for the people of Israel but will be a reminder(EZ) of their sin in turning to her for help.(FA) Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.(FB)’”
Nebuchadnezzar’s Reward
17 In the twenty-seventh year, in the first month on the first day, the word of the Lord came to me:(FC) 18 “Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar(FD) king of Babylon drove his army in a hard campaign against Tyre; every head was rubbed bare(FE) and every shoulder made raw.(FF) Yet he and his army got no reward from the campaign he led against Tyre. 19 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to give Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king(FG) of Babylon, and he will carry off its wealth. He will loot and plunder(FH) the land as pay for his army.(FI) 20 I have given him Egypt(FJ) as a reward for his efforts because he and his army did it for me, declares the Sovereign Lord.(FK)
21 “On that day I will make a horn[k](FL) grow for the Israelites, and I will open your mouth(FM) among them. Then they will know that I am the Lord.(FN)”

3 Waihoki e nga wahine, kia ngohengohe ki a koutou tane ake; a ki te turi etahi ki te kupu, na, i kore i te kupu, ko te whakahaere a nga wahine hei mea e riro mai ai ratou;
2 I a ratou e titiro ana ki te hekore o ta koutou whakahaere me te hopohopo.
3 Ko te whakapaipai mo koutou, kauaka hei to waho, kauaka hei te makawe i whiria, kauaka hei te whakapiringa o nga mea koura, kauaka hei te whakakakahuranga o nga kakahu;
4 Engari hei te tangata ngaro o te ngakau, hei te kakahu e kore e pirau, ara te wairua mahaki, te wairua rangimarie, he mea utu nui hoki tenei i te aroaro o te Atua.
5 He penei hoki i mua ta nga wahine tapu whakapaipai mo ratou, ta te hunga i whakaaro ki te Atua, ngohengohe tonu ratou ki a ratou tane ake:
6 Me Hera hoki i ngohengohe ki a Aperahama, ko te ariki hoki tana ingoa mona: nana hoki koutou tamariki, i a koutou e mahi pai ana, kahore hoki e mataku i tetahi whakapawera.
7 E nga tane hoki, kia rite ki to te matauranga to koutou noho ki a ratou, whakawhiwhia te wahine ki te honore, ko te mea kahakore hoki ia, ka uru tahi nei ano hoki korua ki te oranga ka homai noa nei; he mea kei araia a korua inoi.
8 Na, ko te whakamutunga nei o taku, kia kotahi te whakaaro o te katoa, kia kotahi te ngakau, kia rite te aroha ki to te tuakana, ki to te teina, kia pai te ngakau, kia ngawari:
9 Kaua e utua he kino ki te kino, he taunu ki te taunu: engari me manaaki: me te mahara ano kua karangatia koutou ki tenei, ara kia whiwhi koutou ki te manaaki.
10 Ki te mea hoki tetahi kia aroha ki te ora, kia kite i nga ra pai, me pehi e ia tona arero kei kino, ona ngutu hoki kei korero tinihanga;
11 Me peka ke i te kino, me mahi i te pai; ko te rangimarie hei rapunga mana, hei whainga atu mana.
12 No te mea hoki kei runga i te hunga tika nga kanohi o te Ariki, me ona taringa kei te tuwhera ki a ratou inoi: e he mai ana ia te mata o te Ariki ki te hunga e mahi ana i te kino.
13 Ko wai hoki hei homai i te he ki a koutou, ki te aru koutou i te pai?
14 Otiia ki te mea na te whakaaro ki te tika i whakamamaetia ai koutou, ka hari koutou: aua ra e mataku i ta ratou whakamataku, kaua e pawera;
15 Engari whakatapua a te Karaiti hei Ariki i roto i o koutou ngakau: kia rite tonu hoki te kupu i a koutou i nga wa katoa, hei whakahokinga atu ma koutou ki nga tangata katoa, e ui ana ki a koutou ki te mea e tumanakohia atu nei e koutou; kia maha ki ano ia te ngakau, kia wehi:
16 Kia pai o koutou hinengaro; mo ta ratou ngautuara ki a koutou, e ki nei he kaimahi koutou i te kino, kia whakama taua hunga e whakapae teka na ki ta koutou whakahaere pai i roto i a te Karaiti.
17 Ki te mea hoki i a tatou e mahi ana i te pai ka takoto i te Atua he mamae mo tatou, erangi tera i te mamae i a tatou e mahi ana i te kino.
18 Kotahi hoki whakamamaetanga o te Karaiti mo nga hara, te tika mo te hunga he, kia arahina ai tatou e ia ki te Atua, i whakamatea ko te kikokiko, i whakaorangia ia ko te wairua:
19 Ko tona ano tena i tona haerenga ki te kauwhau ki nga wairua i te whare herehere:
20 I turi nei i mua, i te mea e tatari ana te manawanui o te Atua i nga ra i a Noa, i te mea e hanga ana te aaka, ko te mea i ora ai etahi wairua torutoru nei, ara tokowaru, i roto i te wai.
21 He mea whakarite ki tenei te mea e whakaora nei i a koutou inaianei, ara te iriiri, ehara i te whakawateatanga atu i te poke o te kikokiko, engari he whakaaetanga ake na te hinengaro pai ki te Atua, he meatanga na te aranga mai o Ihu Karaiti:
22 Kua riro nei ki te rangi, kei te ringa matau ano ia o te Atua; kei raro hoki i a ia nga anahera, nga rangatiratanga, nga kaha.

3 Wives, in the same way submit yourselves(A) to your own husbands(B) so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over(C) without words by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.(D) 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self,(E) the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.(F) 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God(G) used to adorn themselves.(H) They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord.(I) You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
7 Husbands,(J) in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.
Suffering for Doing Good
8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded,(K) be sympathetic, love one another,(L) be compassionate and humble.(M) 9 Do not repay evil with evil(N) or insult with insult.(O) On the contrary, repay evil with blessing,(P) because to this(Q) you were called(R) so that you may inherit a blessing.(S) 10 For,
“Whoever would love life
and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
and their lips from deceitful speech.
11 They must turn from evil and do good;
they must seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”[a](T)
13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?(U) 14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed.(V) “Do not fear their threats[b]; do not be frightened.”[c](W) 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer(X) to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope(Y) that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience,(Z) so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.(AA) 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will,(AB) to suffer for doing good(AC) than for doing evil. 18 For Christ also suffered once(AD) for sins,(AE) the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.(AF) He was put to death in the body(AG) but made alive in the Spirit.(AH) 19 After being made alive,[d] he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits(AI)— 20 to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently(AJ) in the days of Noah while the ark was being built.(AK) In it only a few people, eight in all,(AL) were saved(AM) through water, 21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you(AN) also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience(AO) toward God.[e] It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,(AP) 22 who has gone into heaven(AQ) and is at God’s right hand(AR)—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.(AS)
