Ezekiel 26
1 And in the eleuenth yeere, in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Na i te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, i te tahi o nga ra o te marama, i puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 Sonne of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Ierusalem, Aha, the gate of the people is broken: it is turned vnto me: for seeing she is desolate, I shall be replenished,
E te tama a te tangata, kua mea na a Taira ki Hiruharama, Ha, kua pakaru ia, te kuwaha o nga iwi; kua anga mai ia ki ahau; ka whakakiia ahau, i a ia ka ururua nei:
3 Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I come against thee, O Tyrus, and I will bring vp many nations against thee, as the sea mounteth vp with his waues.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Taira, a ka meinga e ahau nga iwi maha kia eke ake ki a koe, kia pera ano me te moana e mea nei i ona ngaru kia eke ake.
4 And they shall destroy the walles of Tyrus and breake downe her towres: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rocke.
A ka kore i a ratou nga taiepa o Taira, ka pakaru ano ona pourewa i a ratou; ka tahia atu ano e ahau tona puehu i runga i a ia, ka meinga ia kia rite ki te kamaka moremore.
5 Thou shalt be for the spreading of nettes in the middes of the sea: for I haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God, and it shalbe a spoile to ye nations.
Ka waiho ia hei horahanga kupenga i waenga moana: naku hoki te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa: ka waiho hoki ia hei pahuatanga ma nga iwi.
6 And her daughters which are in the fielde, shall be slaine by the sworde, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Na, ko ana tamahine i te mara, ka tukitukia e te hoari; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
7 For thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I will bring vpon Tyrus Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, a King of Kings from the North, with horses and with charets, and with horsemen, with a multitude and much people.
No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tenei te kawea atu nei e ahau i te raki ki Taira a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, kingi o nga kingi, me nga hoiho, me nga hariata, me nga kaieke hoiho, me te huihui, me te iwi nui.
8 He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the fielde, and he shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee, and lift vp the buckler against thee.
Ka patua e ia ki te hoari au tamahine i te mara: ka hanga ano e ia he taumaihi hei tatau ki a koe, ka haupuria ake ano he pukepuke hei tatau ki a koe, ka ara ano i a ia te puapua ki a koe.
9 He shall set engins of warre before him against thy walles, and with his weapons breake downe thy towres.
Ka whakaturia ano e ia nga mea whawhai ki ou taiepa, ka wahia ano e ia ou pourewa ki ana titaha.
10 The dust of his horses shall couer thee, for their multitude: thy walles shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheeles, and of the charets, when he shall enter into thy gates as into the entrie of a citie that is broken downe.
I te tini o ana hoiho, ka taupokina koe e to ratou puehu; ka ngarue ou taiepa i te haruru o nga kaieke hoiho, o nga kata, o nga hariata, ina tomokia e ia ou kuwaha, ina pera ia me te hunga e tomo ana ki roto ki te pa kua pakaru.
11 With the hooues of his horses shall he treade downe all thy streetes: he shall slay thy people by the sworde, and the pillars of thy strength shall fall downe to the ground.
Ka takatakahia ou ara katoa e nga paua o ana hoiho; ka tukitukia e ia tou iwi ki te hoari, ka riro iho ano nga pou o tou kaha ki te whenua.
12 And they shall robbe thy riches, and spoyle thy marchandise, and they shall breake downe thy walles, and destroy thy pleasant houses, and they shall cast thy stones and thy timber and thy dust into the middes of the water.
Ka pahuatia e ratou ou taonga, a hei taonga parakete au mea hokohoko: ka wahia iho ou taiepa, ka pakaru ou whare e matenuitia ana e koe: ka maka ano e ratou ou kohatu, ou rakau, me tou puehu, ki te wai.
13 Thus will I cause the sounde of thy songs to cease, and the sound of thine harpes shall be no more heard.
Ka mutu ano i ahau te ngahau o au waiata, e kore ano te tangi o au hapa e rangona a muri ake nei.
14 I wil lay thee like the top of a rocke: thou shalt be for a spreading of nets: thou shalt be built no more: for I the Lord haue spoken it, sayth the Lord God.
A ka meinga koe e ahau kia rite ki te kamaka moremore: ka waiho koe hei horahanga kupenga; e kore koe e hanga a muri ake nei: naku hoki, na Ihowa te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 Thus sayth the Lord God to Tyrus, Shall not the yles tremble at the sounde of thy fall? and at the crie of the wounded, when they shall be slaine and murthered in the middes of thee?
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa ki a Taira, E kore ianei nga motu e wiri i te haruru o tou hinganga, ina aue te tangata i werohia, ina hinga te parekura i roto i a koe?
16 Then all the princes of the sea shall come downe from their thrones: they shall lay away their robes, and put off their broydered garments, and shall clothe themselues with astonishment: they shall sitte vpon the ground, and be astonished at euery moment, and be amased at thee.
Ko reira hoki nga rangatira katoa o te moana heke iho ai i runga i o ratou torona; ko o ratou koroka whakarere rawa, ko o ratou kakahu whakairo unu rawa: ko te kakahu mo ratou ko te wiri; ka noho ki te whenua, hono tonu te wiri, ketekete tonu ki a koe.
17 And they shall take vp a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, Howe art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of the sea men, the renoumed citie which was strong in the sea, both she and her inhabitants, which cause their feare to be on all that haunt therein!
A ka maranga ta ratou tangi mou, ka mea ratou ki a koe, Taukiri e, kua ngaro koe, e te pa o te hunga rere moana: e te pa ingoa nui i kaha nei i runga i te moana, a ia me ona tangata ano, e mea nei i to ratou wehi kia pa ki nga tangata katoa e ta kataka ana i reira!
18 Nowe shall the yles be astonished in the day of thy fall: yea, the yles that are in the sea, shall be troubled at thy departure.
Akuanei nga motu wiri ai i te ra e hinga ai koe; ina, ka ohorere nga motu o te moana i a koe ka riro.
19 For thus saith the Lord God, When I shall make thee a desolate citie, like ye cities that are not inhabited, and when I shall bring the deepe vpon thee, and great waters shall couer thee,
No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; I te wa e meinga ai koe e ahau hei pa kua ururuatia, kia rite ki nga pa kahore e nohoia; i te wa e kawea atu ai e ahau te rire ki runga ki a koe, a ka taupokina koe e nga wai nunui;
20 When I shall cast thee downe with them that descende into the pitte, with the people of olde time, and shall set thee in the lowe partes of the earth, like the olde ruines, with them, I say, which goe downe to the pitte, so that thou shalt not be inhabited, and I shall shewe my glory in the land of the liuing,
Ko reira whakahokia iho ai koe e ahau ki raro, koutou ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua, ki nga tangata onamata, a ka meinga koe kia noho ki nga wahi o raro o te whenua, ki nga wahi mokemoke onamata, i roto i te hunga e heke ana ki te poka, kore iho koe e nohoia; a ka hoatu e ahau he kororia ki te whenua o te hunga ora;
21 I will bring thee to nothing, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou neuer be found againe, sayth the Lord God.
Ka meinga koe e ahau hei wehi, a moti iho koe: ka rapua ano koe, a kore noa iho e kitea a ake ake, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
