Ezekiel 11

1 Moreover, the Spirite lift me vp, and brought me vnto the East gate of the Lordes house, which lyeth Eastwarde, and beholde, at the entrie of the gate were fiue and twentie men: among whome I sawe Iaazaniah the sonne of Azur, and Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah, the princes of the people.

I hapainga ake ano ahau e te wairua, a kawea ana e ia ki te keti ki te rawhiti o te whare o Ihowa, ki tera e anga ra ki te rawhiti. Na i te kuwaha o te keti e rua tekau ma rima nga tangata; a i kite ahau i roto i a ratou i a Iaatania tama a Aturu raua ko Peratia tama a Penaia, he rangatira no te iwi.

2 Then said he vnto me, Sonne of man, these are the men that imagine mischiefe, and deuise wicked counsell in this citie.

Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ko nga tangata enei e whakaaro ana i te kino, e whakatakoto ana i te tikanga he i roto i tenei pa:

3 For they say, It is not neere, let vs builde houses: this citie is the caldron, and wee be the flesh.

E ki ana, kahore ano i tata te wa e hanga whare ai: ko tenei pa te kohua, ko tatou te kikokiko.

4 Therefore prophesie against them, sonne of man, prophesie.

Mo reira poropititia te he mo ratou; poropititia, e te tama a te tangata.

5 And the Spirite of the Lord fell vpon me, and said vnto me, Speake, Thus saith the Lord, O ye house of Israel, this haue ye said, and I know that which riseth vp of your mindes.

Na ka tau te wairua o Ihowa ki ahau, a ka mea ki ahau, Ki atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko ta koutou korero tenei, e te whare o Iharaira: na, ko na mea e puta ake ana i o koutou wairua, mohio tonu ahau.

6 Many haue ye murthered in this citie, and ye haue filled the streets thereof with the slaine.

Kua whakatokomahatia e koutou a koutou tupapaku ki tenei pa, kua whakakiia ano e koutou ona huarahi ki te tupapaku.

7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, They that ye haue slaine, and haue layed in the middes of it, they are the flesh, and this citie is the caldron, but I wil bring you foorth of the mids of it.

Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ko a koutou tupapaku kua hinga nei i a koutou ki waenganui o tenei pa, ko ratou te kikokiko, ko tenei pa te kohua: ko koutou ia ka whakaputaina atu i waenganui o konei.

8 Ye haue feared the sworde, and I wil bring a sworde vpon you, saith the Lord God.

I wehi koutou i te hoari; ka kawea mai ano e ahau te hoari ki a koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

9 And I will bring you out of the middes thereof, and deliuer you into the hands of strangers, and will execute iudgements among you.

Ka whakaputaina atu ano koutou e ahau i waenganui o konei, ka hoatu ki te ringa o te tangata ke, ka mahia ano e ahau he whakawa i waenganui i a koutou.

10 Ye shall fall by the sworde, and I wil iudge you in the border of Israel, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord.

Ka hinga koutou i te hoari; ka whakawakia koutou e ahau ki te rohe o Iharaira, a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa, ahau.

11 This citie shall not be your caldron, neyther shall ye be the flesh in the middes thereof, but I will iudge you in the border of Israel.

E kore tenei pa e waiho hei kohua mo koutou, e kore ano hoki koutou e waiho hei kikokiko mo roto; ka whakawakia koutou e ahau ki te rohe o Iharaira;

12 And ye shall knowe that I am the Lord: for ye haue not walked in my statutes, neither executed my iudgements, but haue done after the maners of the heathen, that are round about you.

A ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau; kihai hoki koutou i haere i runga i aku tikanga, a kihai i mahia e koutou aku whakaritenga, engari i rite tonu a koutou mahi ki nga ritenga a nga iwi i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha o koutou.

13 And when I prophesied, Pelatiah the sonne of Benaiah dyed: then fell I downe vpon my face, and cryed with a loude voyce, and saide, Ah Lord God, wilt thou then vtterly destroy all the remnant of Israel?

Na i ahau e poropiti ana, ka mate a Peratia tama a Penaia. Katahi ahau ka tapapa ki raro, he nui toku reo ki te karanga, i mea ahau, Aue, e te Ariki, e Ihowa! ka poto rawa ranei i a koe nga morehu o Iharaira?

14 Againe the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea ia,

15 Sonne of man, thy brethren, euen thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, wholy are they vnto whome the inhabitants of Ierusalem haue said, Depart ye farre from the Lord: for the lande is giuen vs in possession.

E te tama a te tangata, ko ou tuakana, ko ou teina, ko ou whanaunga, ko te whare katoa ano o Iharaira, rupeke, rupeke, ko ratou enei, kua ki mai nei nga tangata o Hiruharama ki a ratou, kia matara atu i a Ihowa; kua homai tenei whenua ki a matou hei kainga tupu:

16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, Although I haue cast them farre off among the heathen, and although I haue scattered them among the countreis, yet wil I be to them as a litle Sanctuarie in ye countreis where they shall come.

Mo reira me ki atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ahakoa i maka atu ratou e ahau ki tawhiti, ki roto ki nga iwi, ahakoa i whakamararatia ratou e ahau ki nga whenua, ka ai ano ia ahau hei wahi tapu mo ratou i nga whenua e tae ai ratou mo te wa nohinohi nei.

17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God, I will gather you againe from the people, and assemble you out of the countreis where ye haue bene scattered, and I will giue you ye land of Israel.

Mo reira me ki atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ka kohikohia koutou e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ka huihuia ano i nga whenua i whakamararatia ai koutou, ka hoatu ano e ahau te oneone o Iharaira ki a koutou.

18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the idoles thereof, and all the abominations thereof from thence.

Ka tae ano ratou ki reira, ka whakakahoretia ano e ratou nga mea whakarihariha katoa o reira, me nga mea anuanu o reira.

19 And I will giue them one heart, and I will put a newe spirit within their bowels: and I will take the stonie heart out of their bodies, and will giue them an heart of flesh,

Ka hoatu ano e ahau he ngakau kotahi ki a ratou, ka hoatu ano he wairua hou ki a koutou; ka tangohia ano e ahau te ngakau kohatu i o ratou kikokiko, a ka hoatu he ngakau kikokiko ki a ratou:

20 That they may walke in my statutes, and keepe my iudgements, and execute them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

Kia haere ai ratou i runga i aku tikanga, kia puritia ai aku whakaritenga, mahia iho: a waiho tonu iho ratou hei iwi maku, ko ahau ano hei Atua mo ratou.

21 But vpon them, whose heart is towarde their idoles, and whose affection goeth after their abominations, I will lay their way vpon their owne heades, saith the Lord God.

Ko te hunga ia kei te whai nei o ratou ngakau i te ngakau o a ratou mea whakarihariha, o a ratou mea anuanu, ka utua e ahau o ratou ara ki runga ki o ratou mahunga, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

22 Then did the Cherubims lift vp their wings, and the wheeles besides them, and the glorie of the God of Israel was vpon them on hie.

Katahi ka ara nga parirau o nga kerupima, a ko nga wira i to ratou taha; i runga ano hoki te kororia o te Atua o Iharaira i a ratou, i te taha ki runga.

23 And the glorie of the Lord went vp from the middes of the citie, and stoode vpon the moutaine which is towarde the East side of the citie.

Na ka kake te kororia o Ihowa i roto i te pa, tu rawa ki runga ki te maunga ki te taha ki te rawhiti o te pa.

24 Afterwarde the Spirite tooke me vp, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Caldea to them that were led away captiues: so the vision that I had seene, went vp from me.

Muri iho ka hapainga ahau e te wairua, he mea i roto i te whakakitenga, na te wairua o te Atua, ki Karari, ki nga whakarau. Heoi ka kake atu i ahau te kitenga i kitea e ahau.

25 Then I declared vnto them that were led away captiues, all the things that the Lord had shewed me.

Na korerotia ana e ahau ki nga whakarau nga mea katoa i whakakitea ki ahau e Ihowa.
