< Ezekiel 7 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 And thou son of man, thus saith the Lord God to the land of Israel: The end is come, the end is come upon the four quarters of the land.
Na, e koe, e te tama a te tangata, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, ki te whenua o Iharaira: He whakamutunga! kua tae mai te whakamutunga ki nga pito e wha o te whenua.
3 Now is an end come upon thee, and I will send my wrath upon thee, and I will judge thee according to thy ways: and I will set all thy abominations against thee.
Ko aianei te whakamutunga mou, ka tukua atu e ahau toku riri ki runga ki a koe, ka rite ano ki ou ara taku whakarite mou; ka hoatu ano e ahau au mea whakarihariha katoa ki runga ki a koe.
4 And my eye shall not spare thee, and I will shew thee no pity: but I will lay thy ways upon thee, and thy abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
E kore ano toku kanohi e manawapa ki a koe, e kore ahau e tohu: engari ka hoatu e ahau te utu o ou ara ki a koe; ka mau hoki au mea whakarihariha ki roto i a koe, a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
5 Thus saith the Lord God: One affliction, behold an affliction is come.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: He kino! he kino kotahi! nana, te haere mai nei.
6 An end is come, the end is come, it hath awaked against thee: behold it is come.
He whakamutunga kua tae mai, kua tae mai te whakamutunga, kei te oho ki a koe; nana, e haere mai nei.
7 Destruction is come upon thee that dwellest in the land: the time is come, the day of slaughter is near, and not of the joy of mountains.
Ko te mea kua rite mou, tenei kua tae mai, e te tangata o te whenua: kua tae mai te wa, kua tata te ra; he ra no te ngangau, ehara i te ra o te umere harakoa i runga o nga maunga.
8 Now very shortly I will pour out my wrath upon thee, and I will accomplish my anger in thee: and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy crimes.
Akuanei ka tata te ringihia e ahau toku weriweri ki runga ki a koe, ka whakapaua e ahau toku riri ki a koe, ka rite ano ki ou ara taku whakarite mou; ka hoatu ano e ahau he utu ki a koe mo au mea whakarihariha katoa.
9 And my eye shall not spare, neither will I shew mercy: but I will lay thy ways upon thee, and thy abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and you shall know that I am the Lord that strike.
E kore ano toku kanohi e manawapa, e kore ahau e tohu; ka rite ki ou ara taku e hoatu ai ki a koe, ka mau ano au mea whakarihariha ki waenganui i a koe; a ka mohio koutou e whiu ana ano ahau, a Ihowa.
10 Behold the day, behold it is come: destruction is gone forth, the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.
Nana, te ra; nana, kua tae mai: kua puta te mea ku rite mou; kua puawai te tokotoko, kua kopuku te whakapehapeha.
11 Iniquity is risen up into a rod of impiety: nothing of them shall remain, nor of their people, nor of the noise of them: and there shall be no rest among them.
Kua ara te tutu hei tokotoko mo te kino: e kore e toe tetahi o ratou, tetahi ranei o to ratou mano, o o ratou taonga ranei; kahore ano hoki he arikitanga i roto i a ratou.
12 The time is come, the day is at hand: let not the buyer rejoice: nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the people thereof.
Kua tae mai te wa, kua tata te ra: kaua te kaihoko mai e koa; kaua ano te kaihoko atu e pouri: no te mea ka pa te riri ki tona mano katoa.
13 For the seller shall not return to that which he hath sold, although their life be yet among the living. For the vision which regardeth all the multitude thereof, shall not go back: neither shall man be strengthened in the iniquity of his life.
No te mea ahakoa i te ora raua, e kore te tangata i te utu e hoki atu ki te mea i hokona; mo ona mano katoa hoki te whakakitenga, e kore ratou e hoki; e kore ano tetahi e whakakaha i a ia i runga i tona he i ana mahi i a ia e ora ana.
14 Blow the trumpet, let all be made ready, yet there is none to go to the battle: for my wrath shall be upon all the people thereof.
Kua whakatangihia e ratou te tetere, a kua whakaritea nga mea katoa; heoi kahore he tangata e haere ana ki te whawhai; no te mea kei runga toku riri i ona mano katoa.
15 The sword without: and the pestilence, and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die by the sword: and they that are in the city, shall be devoured by the pestilence, and the famine.
I waho ko te hoari, i roto ko te mate uruta, ko te hemokai. Ko te tangata i te parae ka mate i te hoari; ko te tangata i te pa ka pau i te hemokai, i te mate uruta.
16 And such of them as shall flee shall escape: and they shall be in the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them trembling, every one for his iniquity.
Ko nga morehu o ratou e mawhiti, ka mawhiti, a ka noho ki nga maunga, ka rite ki nga kukupa o nga awaawa, tumutumu katoa ratou i runga i tona he, i tona he.
17 All hands shall be made feeble, and all knees shall run with water.
Ka ngoikore katoa nga ringa, a ka ngonge nga turi ano he wai.
18 And they shall gird themselves with haircloth, and fear shall cover them, and shame shall be upon every face, and baldness upon all their heads.
Ka whitikiria ano he kakahu taratara ki a ratou, ka taupokina ratou e te wehi; he whakama kei nga mata katoa, a i runga i o ratou mahunga katoa ko te pakira.
19 Their silver shall be cast forth, and their gold shall become a dunghill. Their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They shall not satisfy their soul, and their bellies shall not be filled: because it hath been the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
Ka maka e ratou ta ratou hiriwa ki nga ara, ka waiho ta ratou koura hei mea poke; e kore ta ratou hiriwa, ta ratou koura, e tau hei whakaora i a ratou i te ra o to Ihowa riri; e kore e ngata o ratou wairua, e kore ano e ki o ratou puku i era: ko te tutukitanga waewae hoki tera i he ai ratou.
20 And they have turned the ornament of their jewels into pride, and have made of it the images of their abominations, and idols: therefore I have made it an uncleanness to them.
Na, ko te ataahua o tona whakapaipai, nana i whakawhiwhi ki te kororia: heoi hanga ana e ratou nga ahua o a ratou mea anuanu, o a ratou mea whakarihariha ki reira: no reira meinga iho e ahau hei mea poke ki a ratou.
21 And I will give it into the hands of strangers for spoil, and to the wicked of the earth for a prey, and they shall defile it.
Ka tukua ano e ahau hei taonga parakete ki te ringa o nga tangata ke, ki nga tangata kino o te whenua, hei taonga parau; a ka whakapokea e ratou.
22 And I will turn away my face from them, and they shall violate my secret place: and robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
Ka tahuri atu ano toku mata i a ratou, a ka whakapokea e ratou toku wahi ngaro; ka tae mai ano nga kaipahua ki reira whakapoke ai.
23 Make a shutting up: for the land is full of the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity.
Hanga he mekameka: kua ki hoki te whenua i nga he whakaheke toto; ki tonu hoki te pa i te tutu.
24 And I will bring the worse of the nations, and they shall possess their houses: and I will make the pride of the mighty to cease, and they shall possess their sanctuary.
Mo reira ka kawea mai e ahau nga tauiwi kino rawa, a ka riro o ratou whare i a ratou; ka mutu ano i ahau te whakapehapeha o te hunga kaha, ka whakapokea o ratou wahi tapu.
25 When distress cometh upon them, they will seek for peace and there shall be none.
Kei te haere mai te whakangaromanga; ka rapua e ratou te rangimarie; heoi kahore noa iho.
26 Trouble shall come upon trouble, and rumour upon rumour, and they shall seek a vision of the prophet, and the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
Ka tae mai te aitua ki runga ki te aitua, te rongo ki runga ki te rongo: a ka rapua e ratou ta te poropiti whakakitenga; heoi ka whakakahoretia te ture i te tohunga, te whakaaro i nga kaumatua.
27 The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with sorrow, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled. I will do to them according to their way, and will judge them according to their judgments: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Ka tangi te kingi, ko te ngaromanga hoki he kakahu mo te rangatira, ka ohooho ano nga ringa o te iwi o te whenua; ka rite ki o ratou ara taku e mea ai ki a ratou, kei a ratou ritenga ano hoki he ritenga mo taku whakawa i a ratou; a ka mohio rato u ko Ihowa ahau.
