< Ezekiel 2 >
1 His appearance [was] of the likeness of the glory of YHWH, and I see, and fall on my face, and I hear a voice speaking, and He says to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I speak with you.”
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, e tu ou waewae ki runga, a ka korero ahau ki a koe.
2 And [the] Spirit comes into me when He has spoken to me, and causes me to stand on my feet, and I hear Him who is speaking to me.
Na kua tae mai te wairua ki roto ki ahau i tana korerotanga ki ahau, i tana meatanga kia tu oku waewae ki runga; a ka rongo ahau i a ia e korero ana ki ahau.
3 And He says to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to rebelling nations who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, to this very day.
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ka unga koe e ahau ki nga tama a Iharaira, ki nga iwi whakakeke, kua whakakeke nei ki ahau; ko ratou ko o ratou matua kua tutu ki ahau a taea noatia tenei ra nei ano.
4 And the sons [are] brazen-faced and hard-hearted to whom I am sending you, and you have said to them: Thus said Lord YHWH.
A ko nga tamariki he whakatoi, he kaki maro; na ka unga koe e ahau ki a ratou, a me ki atu e koe ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa.
5 And they—whether they hear, or whether they refrain, for they [are] a house of rebellion—have known that a prophet has been in their midst.
Na ko ratou, ma ratou e rongo, ma ratou e kore e rongo, he whare whakakeke hoki ratou, ka mohio, na i roto i a ratou te poropiti e noho ana.
6 And you, son of man, you are not afraid of them, indeed, you are not afraid of their words, for briers and thorns are with you, and you are dwelling near scorpions, you are not afraid of their words, and you are not frightened of their faces, for they [are] a house of rebellion,
Na ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, kaua e wehi i a ratou, kaua e wehi i a ratou kupu, ahakoa he tataramoa, he tumatakuru i tou taha, a e noho ana koe i roto i nga kopiona; kaua e wehi i a ratou kupu, kaua hoki e pairi ina titiro mai ratou, ahakoa he whare whakakeke ratou.
7 and you have spoken My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refrain, for they [are] a rebellion.
Me korero ano e koe aku kupu ki a ratou, ma ratou e whakarongo, ma ratou ranei e kore e whakarongo: nui atu hoki to ratou whakakeke.
8 And you, son of man, hear that which I am speaking to you; do not be of rebellion like the house of rebellion, open your mouth and eat that which I am giving to you.”
Ko koe ia, e te tama a te tangata, whakarongo ki taku e mea nei ki a koe; Kaua koe e whakakeke, kei rite ki taua whare whakakeke: hamama tou mangai, kainga hoki te mea ka hoatu nei e ahau ki a koe.
9 And I look, and behold, a hand [is] sent forth to me, and behold, a roll of a scroll [is] in it,
Na, i taku tirohanga atu, nana, ko tetahi ringa e totoro mai ana ki ahau; nana, ko tetahi pukapuka i roto i te ringa;
10 and He spreads it before me, and it is written in front and behind, and written on it [are] lamentations, and mourning, and woe!
Na wherahia ana e ia taua pukapuka ki toku aroaro, he mea tuhituhi a roto, a waho: ko te mea i tuhituhia ki reira he tangi, he uhunga, he aue.
