Ezekiel 37
1 The hand of the Lord was vpon me, and caryed me out in ye spirit of ye Lord, and set me downe in ye mids of the field, which was full of bones.
I pa te ringa o Ihowa ki ahau, a kawea ana ahau, ara e to Ihowa wairua, tukua iho ana ahau e ia ki waenganui o te raorao; na kapi tonu a reira i te wheua.
2 And he led me round about by them, and beholde, they were very many in the open fielde, and lo, they were very drie.
Na ka whakahaereerea ahau e ia ki te taha o aua wheua a taka noa, taka noa; na, he tini ke i runga i te mata o te raorao; nana, he maroke rawa aua mea.
3 And he sayde vnto me, Sonne of man, can these bones liue? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, e ora ranei enei wheua? Ano ra ko ahau, E mohio ana koe, e te Ariki, e Ihowa.
4 Againe he sayde vnto me, Prophecie vpon these bones and say vnto them, O ye dry bones, heare the word of the Lord.
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Poropiti ki enei whenua, mea atu ki a ratou, E nga wheua maroke nei, whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa.
5 Thus saith the Lord God vnto these bones, Behold, I wil cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall liue.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa ki enei wheua, Nana, ka meinga e ahau he manawa kia tomo ki roto ki a koutou, a ka ora koutou.
6 And I will lay sinewes vpon you, and make flesh growe vpon you, and couer you with skinne, and put breath in you, that ye may liue, and yee shall know that I am the Lord.
A ka hoatu e ahau he uaua ki runga ki a koutou, ka whakaputaina ake he kikokiko ki a koutou, ka hipokina koutou ki te kiri, ka hoatu ano e ahau he manawa ki roto ki a koutou, na ka ora koutou; a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
7 So I prophecied, as I was commanded: and as I prophecied, there was a noyse, and beholde, there was a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
Heoi poropititia ana e ahau te mea i whakahaua ki ahau; a, i ahau e poropiti ana, na he haruru, na he ru, a whakatata ana nga wheua, tona wheua ki tona wheua.
8 And when I beheld, loe, the sinewes, and the flesh grewe vpon them, and aboue, the skinne couered them, but there was no breath in them.
A ka titiro atu ahau, nana, he uaua i runga i a ratou, kua puta ake he kikokiko, a he kiri e hipoki ana i waho ake i a ratou: otiia kahore he manawa i roto i a ratou.
9 Then sayd he vnto me, Prophecie vnto the winde: prophecie, sonne of man, and say to the winde, Thus sayth the Lord God, Come from the foure windes, O breath, and breathe vpon these slayne, that they may liue.
Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, Poropiti ki te hau, poropiti, e te tama a te tangata, mea atu hoki ki te hau, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Haere mai i nga hau e wha, e te manawa, e ha ki runga ki tenei hunga kua oti nei te patu, kia ora ai rat ou.
10 So I prophecied as hee had commanded me: and the breath came into them, and they liued, and stood vp vpon their feete, an exceeding great armie.
Heoi ka poropititia e ahau te mea i whakahaua e ia ki ahau; na ko te taenga mai o te manawa ki roto ki a ratou, kua ora, tu ana i runga i o ratou waewae, he ope tino nui.
11 Then he sayd vnto me, Sonne of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is gone, and we are cleane cut off.
Katahi ia ka mea ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ko enei wheua ko te whare katoa o Iharaira: nana, kei te ki ake ratou, Kua maroke o tatou wheua, kua ngaro ta tatou i tumanako ai; kua motuhia ketia tatou.
12 Therefore prophecie, and say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, my people, I will open your graues, and cause you to come vp out of your sepulchres, and bring you into the lande of Israel,
Mo reira poropiti, ki atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, e taku iwi, ka huakina ake e ahau o koutou urupa, ka meinga kia puta ake hoki koutou i o koutou urupa, ka kawea ki te oneone o Iharaira.
13 And yee shall knowe that I am the Lord, when I haue opened your graues, O my people, and brought you vp out of your sepulchres,
A ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ina huakina e ahau o koutou urupa, e taku iwi, a ka meinga koutou e ahau kia puta ake i o koutou urupa.
14 And shall put my Spirit in you, and ye shall liue, and I shall place you in your owne land: then yee shall knowe that I the Lord haue spoken it, and performed it, sayth the Lord.
A ka hoatu e ahau toku wairua ki roto ki a koutou, a ka ora koutou, a ka whakanohoia koutou e ahau ki to koutou ake oneone: ko reira koutou mohio ai, naku, na Ihowa, i korero, a naku ano i mahi, e ai ta Ihowa.
15 The word of the Lord came againe vnto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
16 Moreouer thou sonne of man, take thee a piece of wood, and write vpon it, Vnto Iudah, and to the children of Israel his companions the take another piece of wood, and write vpon it, Vnto Ioseph the tree of Ephraim, and to al the house of Israel his companions.
Na, ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, tikina tetahi rakau mau, tuhituhia iho, He mea mo Hura, mo ona hoa ano, mo nga tama a Iharaira: na tikina atu ano tetahi rakau, tuhituhia iho, He mea mo Hohepa, ko te rakau o Eparaima, mo ona hoa hoki, mo te w hare katoa o Iharaira.
17 And thou shalt ioyne the one to another into one tree, and they shalbe as one in thine hand.
Na me hono raua, tetahi ki tetahi; a hei rakau kotahi raua i roto i tou ringa.
18 And when the children of thy people shall speake vnto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shewe vs what thou meanest by these?
Na ki te korero nga tamariki a tou iwi ki a koe, ki te mea, E kore ianei e whakaaturia e koe ki a matou he aha te tikanga o enei mea au?
19 Thou shalt answere them, Thus sayeth the Lord God, Behold, I wil take the tree of Ioseph, which is in the hande of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellowes, and will put them with him, euen with the tree of Iudah, and make them one tree, and they shalbe one in mine hand.
Mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Nana ka mau ahau ki te rakau o Hohepa, ki tera i te ringa o Eparaima, ki ona hoa ano, ki nga iwi o Iharaira; a ka whakatakotoria ratou e ahau ki tera, ara ki te rakau o Hura, ka meinga ho ki raua hei rakau kotahi, a ka kotahi tonu raua i roto i toku ringa.
20 And the pieces of wood, whereon thou writest, shalbe in thine hand, in their sight.
Na, ko nga rakau e tuhituhi ai koe ki runga, hei roto i tou ringa i to ratou aroaro.
21 And say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and wil gather them on euery side, and bring them into their owne land.
A ka mea atu koe ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, ka tangohia e ahau nga tama a Iharaira i roto i nga iwi i haere atu nei ratou, ka kohikohia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, ka kawea ki to ratou oneone.
22 And I will make them one people in the lande, vpon the mountaines of Israel, and one king shalbe king to them all: and they shalbe no more two peoples, neither bee deuided any more henceforth into two kingdomes.
Ka meinga hoki ratou e ahau hei iwi kotahi ki te whenua, ki nga maunga o Iharaira; a kotahi tonu he kingi hei kingi mo ratou katoa; kore ake o ratou iwi e rua i muri nei, heoi rawa o ratou wehenga kia rua kingitanga.
23 Neither shall they bee polluted any more with their idoles, nor with their abominations, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will saue them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they haue sinned, and will clense them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
Kore ake ano o ratou poke i a ratou whakapakoko, i a ratou mea whakarihariha, i o ratou kino katoa: engari ka whakaorangia ratou e ahau i o ratou nohoanga katoa, i nga wahi i hara ai ratou, ka purea: ko ratou hoki hei iwi maku, ko ahau hei Atua mo ratou.
24 And Dauid my seruant shalbe king ouer them, and they all shall haue one shepheard: they shall also walke in my iudgements, and obserue my statutes, and doe them.
Ko taku pononga hoki, ko Rawiri hei kingi mo ratou; a kotahi tonu te hepara mo ratou katoa: ka haere hoki ratou i runga i aku ritenga, ka pupuri i aku tikanga, ka mahi.
25 And they shall dwell in the lande, that I haue giuen vnto Iaakob my seruant, where your fathers haue dwelt, and they shall dwel therein, euen they, and their sonnes, and their sonnes sonnes for euer, and my seruant Dauid shall bee their prince for euer.
A ka noho ratou i te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki taku pononga, ki a Hakopa, ki te wahi i noho ai o koutou matua; ka noho ano ratou ki reira, ratou, a ratou tama, me nga tama ano a a ratou tama a ake ake: a ko taku pononga, ko Rawiri hei rangatira m o ratou a ake ake.
26 Moreouer, I will make a couenant of peace with them: it shall be an euerlasting couenant with them, and I wil place them, and multiply them, and wil set my Sanctuarie among them for euermore.
Ka whakaritea ano e ahau te kawenata mo te rongo mau ki a ratou; hei kawenata mau tonu tena ki a ratou; ka whakanohoia ano ratou e ahau, ka whakanuia, ka whakaturia ano e ahau toku wahi tapu ki waenganui i a ratou a ake ake.
27 My tabernacle also shalbe with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shalbe my people.
Na ki a ratou toku tapenakara: a ko ahau hei Atua mo ratou, ko ratou ano hei iwi maku.
28 Thus the heathen shall knowe, that I the Lord do sanctifie Israel, when my Sanctuarie shall be among them for euermore.
A ka mohio nga tauiwi ko ahau a Ihowa e whakatapu nei i a Iharaira, i te mea kei waenganui nei toku wahi tapu i a ratou a ake ake.
