Ezekiel 4
1 "You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on it a city, even Jerusalem:
Na, ko koe hoki, e te tama a te tangata, tikina tetahi pereki mau, whakatakotoria ki tou aroaro, ka tuhituhi ai he pa, ko Hiruharama, ki runga.
2 and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it all around.
Whakapaea ano taua mea, hanga he taumaihi hei whakapae mona; haupuria ake he pukepuke hei whakapae mona, hanga he nohoanga taua, hei whawhai ki reira, hanga hoki nga mea wawahi mona, a taka noa.
3 Take for yourself an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city: and set your face toward it, and it shall be besieged, and you shall lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
Tikina ano tetahi rino paraharaha mau, whakaturia ake hei taiepa rino ki waenganui ou, o te pa; kia anga atu ano tou mata ki reira, a ka whakapaea a reira, me whakapae hoki e koe. Hei tohu tenei ki te whare o Iharaira.
4 "Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall bear their iniquity.
Me takoto ano hoki koe ki tou taha maui, ka uta ai i te kino o te whare o Iharaira ki runga ki taua taha: ko tau wahanga i to ratou kino ka rite ki te maha o nga ra i takoto ai koe ki taua taha.
5 For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Kua oti hoki i ahau nga tau o ta ratou kino te uta ki runga ki a koe, kei te maha o nga ra te ritenga, ara e toru rau e iwa tekau nga ra; na ka waha e koe te he o te whare o Iharaira.
6 "Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah: forty days, each day for a year, have I appointed it to you.
A, ka poto enei i a koe, me takoto hoki koe ki tou taha matau, a ka waha koe i te he o te whare o Hura: ko taku i whakarite ai ki a koe, e wha tekau nga ra, he ra mo te tau, he ra mo te tau.
7 You shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall prophesy against it.
Whakaangahia atu hoki tou kanohi ki te whakapaenga o Hiruharama, tahanga kau tou ringa; a ka poropiti koe i te he mo reira.
8 Look, I lay bands on you, and you shall not turn you from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your siege.
Nana, ka meatia koe e ahau ki te here, a e kore koe e huri i tetahi taha ou ki tetahi taha ou, kia poto ra ano i a koe ou ra whakapae.
9 "Take for yourself also wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make bread of it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it.
Tikina hoki he witi mau, he parei, he pini, he mirete, he rai, ka maka ki roto ki te oko kotahi, ka hanga i tetahi taro mau; kia rite ki te maha o nga ra e takoto ai koe ki tou taha, e toru rau e iwa tekau nga ra e kainga ai taua mea e koe.
10 Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time you shall eat it.
Me pauna ano tau kai e kainga ai e koe, kia rua tekau nga hekere i te ra kotahi; me kai e koe i tenei wa, i tenei wa.
11 You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time you shall drink.
Me mehua ano te wai e inumia e koe; ko te wahi whakaono o te hine, me inu e koe i tenei wa, i tenei wa.
12 You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man."
A me kai e koe te kai ano he keke parei, a me tunu taua mea i ta ratou tirohanga ki te paru e puta mai ana i te tangata.
13 YHWH said, "Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them."
A i ki mai a Ihowa, Ka pena ano te kai a nga tama a Iharaira, i ta ratou taro poke i roto i nga tauiwi e peia atu ai ratou e ahau.
14 Then I said, "Ah Lord YHWH. Look, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth."
Na ko taku kainga ake, Aue, e te Ariki, e Ihowa! nana, kihai toku wairua i poke; kihai ano ahau i kai i te mea mate maori, i te mea i haea e te kirehe, o toku tamarikitanga ano a mohoa noa nei; kihai ano tetahi kikokiko whakarihariha i tapoko ki roto ki toku mangai.
15 Then he said to me, "Look, I have given you cow's dung for man's dung, and you shall prepare your bread thereon."
Katahi ka mea ia ki ahau, Titiro, kua hoatu e ahau ki a koe te paru kau hei whakarite mo te paru tangata, a ka tunu koe i tau taro ki aua mea.
16 Moreover he said to me, "Son of man, look, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness; and they shall drink water by measure, and in dismay:
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, kua oti te whawhati e ahau te tokotoko, ara te taro i Hiruharama; a, ko ta ratou taro e kai ai he mea pauna, i runga ano i te manukanuka; he mea mehua ano te wai, ka inumia e ratou i runga i te ketek ete:
17 that they may want bread and water, and be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
He mea kia kore ai he taro, he wai, ma ratou, ketekete iho tetahi ki tetahi, memeha noa iho i runga i to ratou he.
