Ezekiel 34
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 “Son of man, prophesy concerning shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and you have said to them, Thus said Lord YHWH to the shepherds: Woe [to] the shepherds of Israel, Who have been feeding themselves! Do the shepherds not feed the flock?
E te tama a te tangata, poropititia he he mo nga hepara o Iharaira, poropititia, mea atu ki a ratou, ara ki nga hepara, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa mo nga hepara; Aue, te mate mo nga hepara o Iharaira, e whangai nei i a ratou ano! He tek a ianei me whangai te kahui e nga hepara?
3 You eat the fat, and you put on the wool, You slaughter the fed one, You do not feed the flock.
E kainga ana te ngako e koutou, e kakahuria ana e koutou te huruhuru, e patua ana e koutou nga mea momona; ko nga hipi ia, kahore ratou e whangaia e koutou.
4 You have not strengthened the weak, And you have not healed the sick one, And you have not bound up the broken, And have not brought back the driven away, And you have not sought the lost, And you have ruled them with might and with rigor.
Kihai i whakakahangia e koutou nga turoro, kihai nga mea mate i rongoatia e koutou, te mea i whati kihai i takaia e koutou, kihai ano i whakahokia mai e koutou te mea i aia atu, kihai i rapua te mea i ngaro; heoi he taikaha, he nanakia, ta koutou whakahaere tikanga ki a ratou.
5 And they are scattered from want of a shepherd, And are for food to every beast of the field, Indeed, they are scattered.
Na marara noa atu ratou i te kore hepara: riro ana hei kai ma nga kirehe katoa o te parae, a i marara noa atu ratou.
6 My flock goes astray on all the mountains, And on every high hill, And My flock has been scattered on [the] whole face of the earth, And there is none inquiring, and none seeking.
I atiutiu noa atu aku hipi i runga i nga maunga katoa, i runga i nga pukepuke tiketike katoa: i marara noa atu aku hipi i runga i te mata katoa o te whenua, kahore hoki he tangata hei rapu, hei whakataki i a ratou.
7 Therefore, shepherds, hear a word of YHWH:
Mo reira, e nga hepara, whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa;
8 [As] I live—a declaration of Lord YHWH, If not, because of My flock being for a prey, Indeed, My flock is for food to every beast of the field, Because there is no shepherd, And My shepherds have not sought My flock, And the shepherds feed themselves, And they have not fed My flock.
E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, na kua waiho nei aku hipi hei taonga parau, kua waiho ano aku hipi hei kai ma nga kirehe katoa o te parae, i te kore hepara, kihai nei hoki aku hepara i rapu i aku hipi, heoi whangaia ana ko ratou ano e nga hepara, kihai i whangai i aku hipi;
9 Therefore, O shepherds, hear a word of YHWH!
Mo reira, e nga hepara, whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa;
10 Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against the shepherds, And have required My flock from their hand, And caused them to cease from feeding the flock, And the shepherds feed themselves no more, And I have delivered My flock from their mouth, And they are not for food to them.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Hei hoariri tenei ahau mo nga hepara; a ka rapu utu ahau mo aku hipi i o ratou ringa, ka whakamutua ano e ahau ta ratou whangai hipi; e kore hoki nga hepara e whangai i a ratou ano i muri nei; a ka whakaoran gia e ahau aku hipi i roto i o ratou mangai, kei waiho hei kai ma ratou.
11 For thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I—even I, have required My flock, And I have sought it out.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, ka rapu ahau, ahau tonu nei, i aku hipi, ka kimihia marietia.
12 As a shepherd’s searching of his drove, In the day of his being in the midst of his scattered flock, so I seek My flock, And have delivered them out of all places, To where they have been scattered, In a day of cloud and thick darkness.
Ka rite ki te kimi a te hepara i tana kahui i te ra e tae ai ia ki roto ki ana hipi kua tohatoha noa atu, ka pena ano taku kimi i aku hipi; ka whakaorangia ano ratou e ahau i nga wahi katoa i marara atu ai ratou i te ra tukupu, i te ra pouri.
13 And I have brought them out from the peoples, And have gathered them from the lands, And brought them to their own ground, And have fed them on mountains of Israel, By streams, and by all dwellings of the land.
Ka whakaputaina ano ratou e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ka whakaminea mai i nga whenua, ka kawea hoki ki to ratou oneone; a ka whangaia ratou e ahau ki runga ki nga maunga o Iharaira, ki te taha o nga awa, ki nga wahi katoa o te whenua e nohoia ana.
14 I feed them with good pasture, And their habitation is on mountains of the high place of Israel, There they lie down in a good habitation, And they enjoy fat pastures on mountains of Israel.
Ka whangaia ratou e ahau i te wahi tarutaru pai, a hei runga i nga maunga tiketike o Iharaira he puninga mo ratou: ka takoto ratou ki reira ki te puninga pai, ka kai ano ratou i runga i nga maunga o Iharaira i nga wahi momona te tarutaru.
15 I feed My flock, and cause them to lie down, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Ko ahau tonu hei whangai i aku hipi, ko ahau ano hei mea i a ratou kia takoto, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
16 I seek the lost, and bring back the driven away, And I bind up the broken, and I strengthen the sick, And I destroy the fat and the strong, I feed it with judgment.
Maku e rapu te mea i ngaro, maku ano e whakahoki mai te mea i aia atu, maku e takai te mea i whati, maku ano e whakakaha te mea turoro: na, ko te mea momona, ko te mea kaha, ka ngaro i ahau; ka whangaia ratou e ahau i runga i te whakawa.
17 And you, My flock, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am judging between sheep and sheep, Between rams and male goats.
Na, ko koutou, e aku hipi, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, ka whakaritea e ahau te whakawa a tetahi hipi ki tetahi hipi, a nga hipi toa ano ratou ko nga koati toa.
18 Is it a little thing for you—[that] you enjoy the good pasture, And tread down the remnant of your pasture with your feet, And drink a depth of waters, And trample the remainder with your feet,
He mea iti ianei ki a koutou ta koutou kai i nga wahi tarutaru pai, i takahia ai e koutou te toenga o ta koutou kai ki o koutou waewae? ta koutou inu hoki i nga wai purata, a whakapokea ake e koutou te toenga ki o koutou waewae?
19 And My flock consumes the trodden thing of your feet, And drinks the trampled thing of your feet?
Na, ko aku hipi, ka kai ratou i nga takahanga a o koutou waewae, ka inu hoki i ta o koutou waewae i whakapoke ai.
20 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH to them: Behold, I—even I, have judged between fat sheep and lean sheep.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, ki a ratou; Nana, maku, maku tonu nei e whakarite te whakawa a te hipi momona raua ko te hipi hiroki.
21 Because you thrust away with side and with shoulder, And push all the diseased with your horns, Until you have scattered them to the out-place,
No te mea kua tute koutou ki o koutou kaokao, ki o koutou peke, a kua akina e koutou nga mea mate ki o koutou hoana, a marara ake ratou i a koutou ki waho noa atu;
22 Therefore I have given safety to My flock, And they are not for prey anymore, And I have judged between sheep and sheep.
Na reira ka whakaora ahau i aku hipi; e kore ano ratou e waiho i muri nei hei pahuatanga; ka whakaritea ano e ahau te whakawa a tetahi hipi ki tetahi hipi.
23 And have raised up one shepherd over them, And he has fed them—My servant David, He feeds them, and he is their shepherd,
A ka whakaritea e ahau kotahi te hepara mo ratou, mana ratou e whangai, ara taku pononga a Rawiri; mana ratou e whangai, a ko ia hei hepara mo ratou.
24 And I, YHWH, I am their God, And My servant David [is] prince in their midst, I, YHWH, have spoken.
Ko ahau, ko Ihowa, hei Atua mo ratou, a ko taku pononga, ko Rawiri, hei rangatira i roto i a ratou; naku, na Ihowa, te kupu.
25 And I have made a covenant of peace with them, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt confidently in a wilderness, And they have slept in forests.
Ka whakaritea ano e ahau he kawenata mo te rongo mau ki a ratou, ka whakamutua hoki te noho o nga kirehe kikino ki te whenua; a ka noho ratou ki te koraha, te ai he wehi, ka moe ano ki nga ngahere.
26 And I have given them, and the outskirts of My hill, a blessing, And caused the shower to come down in its season, They are showers of blessing.
A ka meinga ratou e ahau, me nga wahi ano i toku pukepuke a karapoi noa, hei manaakitanga; a ka meinga e ahau te ua kia heke iho i te wa i tika ai; a ka uaina iho nga manaaki.
27 And the tree of the field has given its fruit, And the land gives her increase, And they have been confident on their land, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My breaking the bands of their yoke, And I have delivered them from the hand of those laying service on them.
Na ka hua nga hua o te rakau o te parae, ka tukua mai ano ona mau e te whenua, ka noho humarie hoki ratou ki to ratou whenua; ka mohio ano ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina motu i ahau nga here o to ratou ioka, a ka riro ratou i ahau i roto i te ringa o o ratou kaiwhakamahi.
28 And they are no longer a prey to nations, And the beast of the earth does not devour them, And they have dwelt confidently, And there is none troubling.
A, e kore ratou e waiho i muri nei hei pahuatanga ma nga iwi, e kore hoki e kainga e te kirehe o te whenua; engari ka noho humarie ratou, te ai he kaiwhakawehi.
29 And I have raised a plantation of renown for them, And they are no longer consumed by hunger in the land, And they no longer bear the shame of the nations.
A ka ara i ahau he mahuri whai ingoa ma ratou, e kore hoki ratou e riro i te hemokai i runga i te whenua, e kore ano e mau ki a ratou te numinumi i nga tauiwi a muri ake nei.
30 And they have known that I, YHWH, their God, [am] with them, And they—the house of Israel—My people, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Na, ka mohio ratou ko ahau, ko Ihowa, ko to ratou Atua, kei a ratou, a ko ratou, ko te whare o Iharaira, he iwi naku, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
31 And you, My flock, the flock of My pasture, You [are] men [and] I [am] your God, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
Na, ko koutou, ko aku hipi, ko nga hipi e whangaia ana e ahau, he tangata koutou, ko ahau hoki to koutou Atua, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
