< Ezekiel 13 >

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD;
E te tama a te tangata, poropititia he he mo nga poropiti o Iharaira e poropiti nei, mea atu hoki ki te hunga no o ratou ngakau ta ratou e poropiti nei, Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa.
3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
Ko te kupu tenei a te ariki, a Ihowa; Aue, te mate mo nga poropiti wairangi, e whai nei i o ratou wairua ake, a kihai i kite i tetahi mea!
4 O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.
I rite tonu ou poropiti, e Iharaira, ki nga pokiha i nga wahi koraha.
5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
Kihai koutou i haere ki nga wahi pakaru, kihai ano i hanga i te taiepa mo te whare o Iharaira, hei turanga i te taturanga i te ra o Ihowa.
6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made [others] to hope that they would confirm the word.
He kitenga teka, he tuaahu horihori ta ratou e ki ra, E ai ta Ihowa; ehara ratou i a Ihowa i unga: a kua meinga e ratou te tangata kia tumanako, tera e mana te kupu.
7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith [it; ] albeit I have not spoken?
He teka ianei he kitenga teka ta koutou kitenga, he horihori te tuaahu i korero ai koutou, i ki ai, E ki ana a Ihowa; a kihai nei ahau i korero?
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I [am] against you, saith the Lord GOD.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kua korero na koutou i te teka, kua kite i te horihori, mo reira he hoariri tenei ahau mo koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
9 And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord GOD.
Ka pa ano toku ringa ki nga poropiti he horihori nei ta ratou kitenga, ki nga tohunga tuaahu teka; e kore ratou e noho ki te runanga o taku iwi, e kore e tuhituhia ki te tuhituhinga o te whare o Iharaira, e kore ano e tae ki te whenua o Iharaira; a ka mohio koutou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
10 Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and [there was] no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered [morter: ]
Mo ratou, ae ra, mo ratou i whakapohehe i taku iwi, i mea, Ka mau te rongo; i te mea kahore he maunga rongo; na ko tetahi kei te hanga i te pakitara, a ko ratou hei pani ki te paru kihai i konatunatua.
11 Say unto them which daub [it] with untempered [morter], that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend [it].
Mea atu ki nga kaipani o te paru kihai i konatunatua, tera e hinga; ka puta te ua, he waipuke; ka taka iho ano koutou, e nga nganga o te whatu; ka wahia ano hoki e te hau, e te paroro.
12 Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where [is] the daubing wherewith ye have daubed [it]?
Nana, ka hinga te pakitara, kahore ranei he ki ki a koutou, kei hea te paninga i pania ra e koutou?
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend [it] with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in [my] fury to consume [it].
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ina, ka wahia e ahau ki te hau, ki te paroro, i toku weriweri; ka puta ano te ua, te waipuke, i toku riri, me nga nganga ano o te whatu i toku weriweri, hei whakapoto rawa.
14 So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered [morter], and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Ka paparu pera i ahau te pakitara i pania ra e koutou ki te paru kihai i konatunatua, pa tonu iho ki te whenua, ka whakakitea ano ona turanga; a ka hinga, ka poto ano koutou ki waenganui o taua pakitara; a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
15 Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered [morter], and will say unto you, The wall [is] no [more], neither they that daubed it;
Ka whakapaua peratia e ahau toku weriweri ki te pakitara, ki te hunga ano nana i pani ki te paru kihai i konatunatua; ka mea hoki ahau ki a koutou, kua kore te pakitara, kua kore ano te hunga nana i pani;
16 [To wit], the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and [there is] no peace, saith the Lord GOD.
Ara nga poropiti o Iharaira mo Hiruharama nei ta ratou e poropiti ai, e kite nei i te kitenga mona, i te rongo mau, i te mea kahore he rongo mau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
17 Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
Na ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki nga tamahine a tou iwi e poropiti nei, he mea no o ratou ngakau ake; poropititia ano he he mo ratou,
18 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the [women] that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive [that come] unto you?
Mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Aue, te mate mo nga wahine e tuitui urunga ana ki nga tuke katoa; e hanga arai ana mo nga mahunga o te roa, o te poto, hei whai wairua! Ka whai ranei koutou i nga wairua o taku iwi? ka whakaora rane i i etahi hei wairua ma koutou?
19 And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear [your] lies?
Kua whakapokea ahau e koutou i waenga i taku iwi hei utu mo nga kutanga parei, mo nga kongakonga taro, hei whakamate i nga wairua e kore e tika kia whakamatea, hei whakaora i nga wairua e kore e tika kia ora, i a koutou ka korero teka na ki taku iwi e whakarongo nei ki a koutou korero teka.
20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make [them] fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, [even] the souls that ye hunt to make [them] fly.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, e he ana ahau ki o koutou urunga i whaia ai nga wairua e koutou i reira, i meinga ai kia rere, ka haea atu ano e ahau i o koutou ringa; ka tukua ano e ahau nga wairua kia haere, a koutou wairu a e whai na, e mea na kia rere.
21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Ka haea atu ano e ahau o koutou arai, ka whakaorangia hoki taku iwi i roto i o koutou ringa; e kore ano e waiho i o koutou ringa hei whainga atu; a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
No te mea kua whakapouritia e koutou ki te kupu teka te ngakau o te tangata tika, kihai nei i whakapouritia e ahau; a whakaungia ana nga ringa o te tangata kino, i kore ai e tahuri mai i tona ara kino, kia ora ai:
23 Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Mo reira e kore koutou e kite i te horihori a muri ake nei, i nga tikanga ranei ki nga tuaahu: a ka whakaorangia hoki e ahau taku iwi i roto i o koutou ringa; a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
