Ezekiel 28
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord GOD; Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet you are a man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God:
E te tama a te tangata, mea atu ki te rangatira o Taira: Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kua whakakake na tou ngakau, kua mea, He atua ahau, e noho ana i te nohoanga o te Atua, i waenga moana, ahakoa ki tau ko tou ngakau e rite ana ki to te Atua ngakau:
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from you:
Nana, nui atu ou whakaaro i o Raniera; kahore he mea ngaro e taea te huna i a koe.
4 With your wisdom and with your understanding you have got you riches, and have got gold and silver into your treasures:
He nui no ou whakaaro, he matauranga nou i mahia ai e koe he taonga mou, i mahia ai e koe he koura, he hiriwa ki roto ki ou whare taonga.
5 By your great wisdom and by your trade have you increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches:
He nui noa atu no ou whakaaro, he hokohoko nau, i whakaraneatia ai e koe ou rawa, a whakakake ana tou ngakau i ou rawa.
6 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have set your heart as the heart of God;
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kua whai ake na tou ngakau ki to te Atua ngakau;
7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your brightness.
Mo reira tenei ahau te kawe nei i nga tautangata ki a koe, te hunga nanakia rawa o nga iwi; a ka unuhia e ratou a ratou hoari hei whawhai ki te ataahua o ou whakaaro nui, ka whakapokea ano e ratou tou kanapatanga.
8 They shall bring you down to the pit, and you shall die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.
Ka whakahokia iho koe e ratou ki te poka, a, ko te mate mou, ko nga mate o te hunga e patua ana i waenga moana.
9 Will you yet say before him that slays you, I am God? but you shall be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slays you.
E mea ake ano ranei koe ki te aroaro o tou kaipatu, Ko te Atua ahau? otiia he tangata ano koe, ehara koe i te Atua i roto i te ringa o tou kaipatu.
10 You shall die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, says the Lord GOD.
Ko tou matenga, ko nga matenga o te hunga kokotikore i te ringa o nga tautangata: naku hoki te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus says the Lord GOD; You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
E te tama a te tangata, kia ara tau tangi mo te kingi o Taira, mea atu hoki ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kei te tino o te pai tau hiri, ki tonu koe i nga whakaaro nunui, pai rerehua te ataahua.
13 You have been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, the ruby, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of your timbrels and of your pipes was prepared in you in the day that you were created.
I Erene koe, i te kari a te Atua e noho ana; ko tou hipoki ko nga kohatu utu nui katoa, ko te harariu, ko te topaha, ko te taimana, ko te perira, ko te onika, ko te hahapa, ko te hapaira, ko te emerara, ko te kapakara, ko te koura: i whakapaia a no te mahi o au timipera, o au putorino i roto i a koe i te ra i hanga ai koe.
14 You are the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you were upon the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Ko koe te kerupa hipoki, te mea i whakawahia; naku ano koe i mea hei pena, i noho ai koe i runga i te maunga tapu o te Atua; i haereere ano koe i roto i nga kohatu ahi.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you.
Tapatahi tonu koe i ou ara, i te ra ra ano i hanga ai koe, a taea noatia te kitenga o te he i roto i a koe.
16 By the multitude of your merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
He nui no au hokohokonga i ki ai a roto i a koe i te tutu, a hara iho koe; mo reira ka maka atu koe, te mea poke, e ahau i te maunga o te Atua: ka ngaro ano koe, e te kerupa hipoki, i roto i nga kohatu ahi.
17 your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.
Kua whakakake tou ngakau ki tou ataahua, na tou kanapatanga i he ai ou whakaaro nui: kua panga koe e ahau ki te whenua, kua tukua koe e ahau ki te aroaro o nga kingi, hei matakitakinga ma ratou.
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your trade; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of you, it shall devour you, and I will bring you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold you.
Kua whakapokea e koe ou wahi tapu ki te maha o ou kino, ki te he i a koe i hokohoko ra; mo reira i whakaputaina mai ai e ahau he ahi i roto i a koe, hei kai i a koe, a kua meinga ano koe e ahau hei pungarehu ki runga ki te whenua i te tirohanga a te hunga katoa e kite ana i a koe.
19 All they that know you among the people shall be astonished at you: you shall be a terror, and never shall you be any more.
Ko te hunga katoa e mohio ana ki a koe i roto i nga iwi ka miharo ki a koe: ka ai koe hei whakawehi, kore tonu ake koe, ake ake.
20 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
21 Son of man, set your face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki Hairona, poropititia hoki te he mo reira,
22 And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of you: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
Mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri ahau mou, e Hairona; ka whai kororia ano hoki ahau i roto i a koe: a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina mahia e ahau he whakawa i roto i a ia, ina whakatapua ahau i roto i a ia.
23 For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Ka unga atu hoki e ahau te mate uruta ki a ia, me te toto ki ona ara; ka hinga hoki te hunga i werohia i waenga ona, mea rawa ki te hoari i runga i a ia a tawhio noa; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
Kahore hoki he tataramoa ngau a muri ake nei ki te whare o Iharaira, kahore he tumatakuru whakamamae a te hunga katoa i tetahi taha o ratou, i tetahi taha, a te hunga ra i whakahawea ki a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
25 Thus says the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka oti te whare o Iharaira te kohikohi e ahau i roto i nga iwi i whakamararatia atu ai ratou, a ka oti ahau te whakatapu i runga i a ratou i te tirohanga a nga iwi, ko reira ratou noho ai ki to ratou oneone i hoatu e ahau ki taku pononga, ki a Hakopa.
26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
Ka noho ano ratou ki reira, te ai he wehi; ae ra, ka hanga whare ano ratou, ka whakato mara waina, ka ata noho ano hoki, ina mahia e ahau he whakawa ki te hunga katoa i whakahawea ki a ratou i tetahi taha o ratou, i tetahi taha; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ko to ratou Atua.
