< Ezekiel 32 >

1 In the twelfth year, on the first day of the twelfth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Na, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau, i te tekau ma rua o nga marama, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 “Son of man, take up a lament for Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him: ‘You are like a lion among the nations; you are like a monster in the seas. You thrash about in your rivers, churning up the waters with your feet and muddying the streams.’
E te tama a te tangata, kia ara tou tangi mo Parao kingi o Ihipa, mea atu hoki ki a ia, Ko tou rite kei te kuao raiona o nga iwi; otiia e rite ana koe ki te tarakona o nga moana: i kokiri mai ano koe me ou awa, pokarekare ana nga wai i ou waewae, poke ana i a koe o ratou awa.
3 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will spread My net over you with a company of many peoples, and they will draw you up in My net.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka horahia e ahau taku kupenga ki runga ki a koe, he huihuinga hoki no nga iwi maha; a ka riro ake koe i a ratou i taku kupenga.
4 I will abandon you on the land and hurl you into the open field. I will cause all the birds of the air to settle upon you, and all the beasts of the earth to eat their fill of you.
Ka waiho ano koe e ahau ki runga ki te whenua, ka akiritia atu ano koe ki te mata o te parae, maku ano e mea kia nohoia koe e nga manu katoa o te rangi, kia makona ano nga kirehe o te whenua katoa i a koe.
5 I will put your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your remains.
Ka takoto ano i ahau ou kikokiko ki runga ki nga maunga, ka whakakiia ano nga awaawa ki a koe e tiketike na.
6 I will drench the land with the flow of your blood, all the way to the mountains— the ravines will be filled.
Ka whakamakukuria ano e ahau ki ou toto te whenua e kau na koe, a tutuki noa ki nga maunga; ka ki ano hoki nga awa i a koe.
7 When I extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and darken their stars. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon will not give its light.
A ka oti koe te tinei e ahau, ka hipokina e ahau te rangi, ka whakapouritia ano hoki nga whetu o reira; ka hipokina e ahau te ra ki te kapua, e kore ano e titi te atarau.
8 All the shining lights in the heavens I will darken over you, and I will bring darkness upon your land,’
Na, ko nga whakamarama katoa e marama nei te rangi, ka whakapouritia e ahau ki runga ki a koe, ka hoatu ano e ahau he pouri ki runga ki tou whenua, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
9 ‘I will trouble the hearts of many peoples, when I bring about your destruction among the nations, in countries you do not know.
He maha ano nga iwi e mamae o ratou ngakau i ahau, ina meinga e ahau kia tae atu tou whakangaromanga ki nga iwi, ki nga whenua kihai i mohiotia e koe.
10 I will cause many peoples to be appalled over you, and their kings will shudder in horror because of you when I brandish My sword before them. On the day of your downfall each of them will tremble every moment for his life.’
Ina, he maha nga iwi e meinga e ahau kia ketekete ki a koe, ka nui ano te wehi o o ratou kingi, ina whakaaro ki a koe, ua wherikoriko taku hoari ki to ratou aroaro; hono tonu ano to ratou wiri, ia tangata, ia tangata, i te wehi mo tona oranga an o, i te ra e hinga ai koe.
11 For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The sword of the king of Babylon will come against you!
No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tera e tae atu te hoari a te kingi o Papurona ki a koe
12 I will make your hordes fall by the swords of the mighty, the most ruthless of all nations. They will ravage the pride of Egypt and all her multitudes will be destroyed.
Ka meinga e ahau ou mano tini, te hunga nanakia o nga iwi, ratou katoa kia hinga i nga hoari a nga marohirohi: a ka pahuatia e ratou nga mea whakai o Ihipa, ka ngaro ano o reira mano tini katoa.
13 I will slaughter all her cattle beside the abundant waters. No human foot will muddy them again, and no cattle hooves will disturb them.
Ka ngaro ano i ahau o reira kararehe katoa i te taha o nga wai maha; e kore ano e pokarekare i te wae tangata a muri ake nei, e kore ano e ngarungaru i te wae kararehe.
14 Then I will let her waters settle and will make her rivers flow like oil,’
Ko reira ahau mea ai i o ratou wai kia purata, ka meinga ano e ahau o ratou awa kia rite ki te hinu te rere, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 ‘When I make the land of Egypt a desolation and empty it of all that filled it, when I strike down all who live there, then they will know that I am the LORD.’
Kia meinga e ahau te whenua o Ihipa hei ururua, a kore iho nga tini mea o te whenua, kia patua ano e ahau te hunga katoa e noho ana i reira, katahi ratou ka mohio ko Ihowa ahau.
16 This is the lament they will chant for her; the daughters of the nations will chant it. Over Egypt and all her multitudes they will chant it, declares the Lord GOD.”
Ko te tangi tenei e tangihia ai ia e ratou, ka tangihia ia e nga tamahine a nga iwi: ka tangihia ia e ratou, ara a Ihipa ratou ko ona mano tini, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
17 In the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Na, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau, i te tekau ma rima o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
18 “Son of man, wail for the multitudes of Egypt, and consign her and the daughters of the mighty nations to the depths of the earth with those who descend to the Pit:
E te tama a te tangata, aue ki te mano tini o Ihipa, maka iho ratou, a ia, me nga tamahine a nga iwi nunui, ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua, ratou ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.
19 Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be placed with the uncircumcised!
He ataahua rawa koe i a wai? heke iho, takoto tahi koutou ko te hunga kokotikore.
20 They will fall among those slain by the sword. The sword is appointed! Let them drag her away along with all her multitudes.
Ka hinga ratou ki waenga i te hunga i patua ki te hoari: kua tukua atu ia ki te hoari: toia atu me ona mano tini katoa.
21 Mighty chiefs will speak from the midst of Sheol about Egypt and her allies: ‘They have come down and lie with the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.’ (Sheol h7585)
Ka korero mai nga tangata kaha o nga marohirohi ki a ia i roto i te reinga, ratou ko ona kaiawhina: kua heke ratou ki raro, kei te takoto ratou, te korikori, ara nga kokotikore, he mea patu ki te hoari. (Sheol h7585)
22 Assyria is there with her whole company; her graves are all around her. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword.
Kei reira ano a Ahuru ratou ko tona hui katoa: ko ona urupa, kei tetahi taha ona, kei tetahi taha; he mea patu katoa, kua hinga i te hoari.
23 Her graves are set in the depths of the Pit, and her company is all around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword— those who once spread terror in the land of the living.
Ko ona urupa, he mea mahi ki nga pito rawa o te rua; ko tona ropu ano kei tetahi taha o tona urupa, kei tetahi taha; he mea patu katoa ratou, kua hinga i te hoari, te hunga i puta ai te wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora.
24 Elam is there with all her multitudes around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword— those who went down uncircumcised to the earth below, who once spread their terror in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit.
Kei reira a Erama, ratou ko ona mano tini i tetahi taha o tona urupa, i tetahi taha; ko ratou katoa he mea patu, kua hinga i te hoari, he hunga kua heke kokotikore atu ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua, he hunga i mea i to ratou wehi kia puta ki te whenua o te hunga ora; heoi kei te mau te whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua.
25 Among the slain they prepare a resting place for Elam with all her hordes, with her graves all around her. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, although their terror was once spread in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit. They are placed among the slain.
Kua hanga te takotoranga mona ki roto ki te hunga i patua, mo ratou ano ko ona mano tini katoa: ko ona urupa kei tetahi taha ona, kei tetahi taha; he kokotikore ratou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari: i puta hoki to ratou wehi ki te whenua o te hu nga ora, heoi kua mau te whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua: kua tukua atu ia ki roto ki te hunga i patua.
26 Meshech and Tubal are there with all their multitudes, with their graves all around them. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, because they spread their terror in the land of the living.
Kei reira a Meheke, a Tupara, ratou ko ona mano tini katoa; ko ona urupa kei tetahi taha ona kei tetahi taha, he mea kokotikore ratou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari; i puta ano to ratou wehi i mua ki te whenua o te hunga ora.
27 They do not lie down with the fallen warriors of old, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were placed under their heads, whose shields rested on their bones, although the terror of the mighty was once in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)
E kore ano ratou e takoto i roto i nga marohirohi o nga kokotikore kua hinga, kua heke ki te reinga me a ratou patu ano o te whawhai: i whakatakotoria ano e ratou a ratou hoari ki raro i o ratou mahunga, a kei te mau o ratou kino ki o ratou when ua; ko te hunga hoki tena i wehi ai nga marohirohi o te whenua o te ora. (Sheol h7585)
28 But you too will be shattered and lie down among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.
Otiia ka whatiia koe i roto i te hunga kokotikore, ka takoto tahi hoki koutou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari.
29 Edom is there, and all her kings and princes, who despite their might are laid among those slain by the sword. They lie down with the uncircumcised, with those who descend to the Pit.
Kei reira a Eroma, ona kingi, ona rangatira katoa i tukua nei i runga i to ratou marohirohi ki roto ki te hunga i werohia e te hoari: ka takoto tahi ratou ko nga kokotikore, ratou ano ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.
30 All the leaders of the north and all the Sidonians are there; they went down in disgrace with the slain, despite the terror of their might. They lie uncircumcised with those slain by the sword and bear their shame with those who descend to the Pit.
Kei reira nga ariki o te raki, ratou katoa, me nga Haironi katoa i heke nei i roto i te hunga i patua; whakama iho ratou i te wehi i tupu mai i to ratou marohirohi, a takoto kokotikore ana ratou i roto i te hunga i patua ki te hoari, me te mau t e whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua.
31 Pharaoh will see them and be comforted over all his multitude— Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword,
E kite a Parao i a ratou, a ka whai whakamarietanga ki ana mano tini katoa i patua ki te hoari, a Parao ratou ko tana ope katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
32 For I will spread My terror in the land of the living, so that Pharaoh and all his multitude will be laid to rest among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword,
No te mea kua tukua e ahau tona wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora: a ka whakatakotoria ia ki roto ki te hunga kokotikore, ratou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari, a Parao ratou ko ana mano tini, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
