9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
1Na ka puta tuarua mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Hona, i mea ia,
2Whakatika, haere ki Ninewe, ki taua pa nui, kauwhautia hoki ki reira te kauwhau e korerotia e ahau ki a koe.
3Na whakatika ana a Hona, haere ana ki Ninewe, pera ana me ta Ihowa i korero ai. Na he pa nui rawa a Ninewe, e toru nga ra e haerea ai.
4Na ka timata ta Hona haere ki roto ki te pa, kotahi te ra i haere ai, kei te karanga, kei te mea, Kia wha tekau ake nga ra, ka hurihia a Ninewe.
5A whakapono tonu nga tangata o Ninewe ki ta te Atua; karangatia ana e ratou he nohopuku, he taratara o ratou kakahu, o nga mea rarahi o ratou tae rawa iho ki nga mea ririki.
6Na ka tae he korero ki te kingi o Ninewe, a whakatika ana ia i runga i tona torona, whakarerea atu ana e ia tona koroka, kei te hipoki i a ia ki te kakahu taratara, noho ana i roto i te pungarehu.
7I meinga ano e ia kia karangatia te korero i roto i Ninewe, he mea whakatakoto na te kingi ratou ko ana metararahi, i mea ia, Kaua te tangata, te kararehe ranei, te kau ranei, te hipi ranei e pa ki tetahi aha: kaua ratou e kai, e inu wai ranei:
8Engari kia hipokina te tangata me te kararehe ki te kakahu taratara, kia kaha ano ta ratou karanga ki te Atua: ae ra, kia hoki ano nga tangata i tona ara kino, i tona ara kino, i te tutu ano o o ratou ringa.
9Ko wai ka tohu tera pea te Atua ka tahuri, a ka puta ke tona whakaaro, ka tahuri atu hoki i te muranga o tona riri, a e kore tatou e ngaro?
10A ka kite te Atua i a ratou mahi, kua tahuri atu ratou i to ratou ara kino; na ka puta ke te whakaaro o te Atua mo te kino i kiia e ia kia meatia ki a ratou; a kihai i meatia e ia.
