Ezekiel 11

1 Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of YHWH 's house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son 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 unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:

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 Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we 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 prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.

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

5 And the Spirit of YHWH fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith YHWH; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.

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 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.

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 Sovereign YHWH; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst 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 have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Master YHWH.

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 midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments 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 sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I am YHWH.

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 city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge 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 know that I am YHWH: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners 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 it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah, Sovereign YHWH! wilt thou make a full end of 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 Again the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,

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

15 Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from YHWH: unto us is this land given 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 Sovereign YHWH; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries 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 Sovereign YHWH; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the 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 detestable things 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 give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give 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 walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their Elohim.

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 as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Master YHWH.

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 up their wings, and the wheels beside them; and the glory of the Elohim of Israel was over them above.

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 glory of YHWH went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.

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 Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of Elohim into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up 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 spake unto them of the captivity all the things that YHWH had shewed me.

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