Ezekiel 20

1 And it was - in the year seventh in the fifth [month] on the ten of the month they came men from [the] elders of Israel to consult Yahweh and they sat down before me.

Na, i te whitu o nga tau, i te rima o nga marama, i te tekau o nga ra o te marama, ka haere mai etahi o nga kaumatua o Iharaira ki te rapu tikanga i a Ihowa, a noho ana i toku aroaro.

2 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

Na ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,

3 O son of humankind speak with [the] elders of Israel and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh ¿ to consult me [are] you coming [by] [the] life of me if I will let myself be consulted by you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

E te tama a te tangata, korero ki nga kaumatua o Iharaira; mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; i haere mai ranei koutou ki te rapu tikanga i ahau? E ora ana ahau, e kore ahau e pai kia rapua e koutou he tikanga i ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

4 ¿ Will you judge them ¿ will you judge O son of humankind [the] abominations of ancestors their make known to them.

E whakawa ranei koe i a ratou, e te tama a te tangata, e whakawa ranei koe? meinga kia mohio ratou ki nga mea whakarihariha a o ratou matua:

5 And you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh on [the] day chose I Israel and I lifted up hand my to [the] offspring of [the] house of Jacob and I made myself known to them in [the] land of Egypt and I lifted up hand my to them saying I [am] Yahweh God your.

Mea atu hoki ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: I te ra i whiriwhiria ai e ahau a Iharaira, i toku ringa i ara ra ki nga uri o te whare o Hakopa, i mohiotia ai ahau e ratou i te whenua o Ihipa, i toku ringa i ara atu ra ki a ratou, i ahau i mea ra, Ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua;

6 On the day that I lifted up hand my to them to bring out them from [the] land of Egypt to a land which I had selected for them flowing of milk and honey [is] beauty it to all the lands.

I taua ra ano i ara ai toku ringa ki a ratou ki te tango mai i a ratou i te whenua o Ihipa ki te whenua i tirohia e ahau mo ratou, e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi, ki te wahi ataahua rawa o nga whenua katoa;

7 And I said to them everyone [the] detestable things of eyes his throw away and by [the] idols of Egypt may not you make yourselves unclean I [am] Yahweh God your.

I mea ahau ki a ratou, Maka e tera, e tera, nga mea whakarihariha o ona kanohi; kaua hoki koutou e whakapokea ki nga whakapakoko o Ihipa; ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

8 And they rebelled against me and not they were willing to listen to me anyone [the] detestable things of eyes their not they threw away and [the] idols of Egypt not they forsook and I said to pour out rage my on them to complete anger my on them in [the] midst of [the] land of Egypt.

Otiia kei te whakakeke ratou ki ahau, kihai hoki i pai ki te whakarongo ki ahau, kihai i maka atu e ratou nga mea whakarihariha o nga kanohi o tera, o tera, kihai i whakarerea e ratou nga whakapakoko o Ihipa: katahi ahau ka mea, Ka ringihia e aha u toku weriweri ki a ratou, ka whakapaua e ahau toku riri ki a ratou i waenganui o te whenua o Ihipa.

9 And I acted for [the] sake of name my to not to be profaned to [the] eyes of the nations which they [were] in midst of them which I had made myself known to them to eyes their by bringing out them from [the] land of Egypt.

Otiia mahi ana ahau mo toku ingoa kei poke i te tirohanga a nga iwi i noho tahi ratou, i meinga nei e ahau kia mohio ki ahau, i a ratou ra i kite i to ratou whakaputanga mai i te whenua o Ihipa.

10 And I brought out them from [the] land of Egypt and I brought them into the wilderness.

Heoi whakaputaina ana ratou e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa, kawea ana ki te koraha.

11 And I gave to them statutes my and judgments my I made known to them which he will do them the person and he will live by them.

I hoatu ano e ahau aku tikanga ki a ratou, i whakakitea atu ano ki a ratou aku whakaritenga e ora ai te tangata ki te mahia e ia.

12 And also sabbaths my I gave to them to become a sign between me and between them to know that I [am] Yahweh [who] sanctified them.

I hoatu ano e ahau aku hapati ki a ratou hei tohu ki ahau, ki a ratou, kia mohio ai ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ko to ratou kaiwhakatapu.

13 And they rebelled against me [the] house of Israel in the wilderness in statutes my not they walked and judgments my they rejected which he will do them the person and he will live by them and sabbaths my they profaned exceedingly and I said to pour out rage my on them in the wilderness to make an end of them.

Otiia i whakakeke te whare o Iharaira ki ahau i te koraha; kihai ratou i haere i runga i aku tikanga, paopao ana ratou ki aku whakaritenga e ora ai te tangata ki te mahia e ia; whakapokea rawatia ana e ratou aku hapati: katahi ahau ka mea kia ri ngihia toku weriweri ki a ratou i te koraha, kia moti ra ano ratou.

14 And I acted for [the] sake of name my to not to be profaned to [the] eyes of the nations which I had brought out them to eyes their.

Otiia mahi ana ahau mo toku ingoa, kei poke i te tirohanga a nga iwi i kite nei i taku tangohanga mai i a ratou.

15 And also I I lifted up hand my to them in the wilderness to not to bring them into the land which I had given flowing of milk and honey [is] beauty it to all the lands.

I ara ano hoki toku ringa ki a ratou i te koraha kia kaua ratou e kawea ki te whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi, ki taku i hoatu ai, he wahi ataahua rawa i nga whenua katoa;

16 Because judgments my they had rejected and statutes my not they had walked in them and sabbaths my they had profaned for after idols their heart their [was] walking.

Mo ratou i paopao ki aku whakaritenga, a kihai i haere i runga i aku tikanga; ko aku hapati hoki whakapokea iho e ratou; he whai no o ratou ngakau i a ratou whakapakoko.

17 And it looked with compassion eye my on them from destroying them and not I made them complete destruction in the wilderness.

Heoi i tohungia ratou e toku kanohi, kihai i whakangaromia, kihai ano ahau i whakamoti i a ratou i te koraha.

18 And I said to children their in the wilderness in [the] statutes of ancestors your may not you walk and judgments their may not you keep and by idols their may not you make yourselves unclean.

A i mea ahau ki a ratou tamariki i te koraha, Kaua e haere i runga i nga tikanga a o koutou matua, kaua ano e puritia a ratou whakaritenga, kei poke hoki koutou i a ratou whakapakoko.

19 I [am] Yahweh God your in statutes my walk and judgments my keep and do them.

Ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua: haere i runga i aku tikanga, puritia aku whakaritenga, mahia;

20 And sabbaths my keep holy and they will become a sign between me and between you to know that I [am] Yahweh God your.

Whakatapua hoki aku hapati; a ka waiho era hei tohu ki ahau, ki a koutou, kia nohio ai koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

21 And they rebelled against me the children in statutes my not they walked and judgments my not they kept to observe them which he will do them the person and he will live by them sabbaths my they profaned and I said to pour out rage my on them to complete anger my on them in the wilderness.

Otiia kei te whakakeke nga tamariki ki ahau, kihai i haere i runga i aku tikanga, kihai hoki i pupuri i aku whakaritenga hei mahi ma ratou; ki te mahia hoki ena e te tangata, ka ai hei oranga mona; ko aku hapati hoki, whakapokea iho e ratou: na ko taku kianga ake, kia ringihia toku weriweri ki a ratou, kia whakapaua toku riri ki a ratou i te koraha.

22 And I turned back hand my and I acted for [the] sake of name my to not to be profaned to [the] eyes of the nations which I brought out them to eyes their.

Engari ia i whakahokia iho e ahau toku ringa, a mahi ana mo toku ingoa, kei poke i te tirohanga mai a nga iwi i kite nei i taku whakaputanga i a ratou.

23 Also I I lifted up hand my to them in the wilderness to scatter them among the nations and to disperse them among the lands.

I ara ano toku ringa ki a ratou i te koraha, mo ratou kia whakamararatia ki roto ki nga tauiwi, kia titaria atu ki nga whenua;

24 Because judgments my not they had done and statutes my they had rejected and sabbaths my they had profaned and after [the] idols of parents their they had been eyes their.

Mo ratou kihai i mahi i aku whakaritenga; mo ratou ano i paopao ki aku tikanga, na whakapokea iho e ratou aku hapati, anga tonu ana o ratou kanohi ki nga whakapakoko a o ratou matua.

25 And also I I gave to them statutes not good and judgments [which] not they will live by them.

Na hoatu ana e ahau ki a ratou he tikanga kahore i pai, he whakaritenga e kore ai ratou e ora.

26 And I made unclean them by gifts their when made pass through every firstborn of a womb so that I may make appalled them so that this they may know that I [am] Yahweh.

I whakapokea ano ratou e ahau ki a ratou mea homai noa, mo ta ratou meatanga i nga tamariki katoa e oroko puta mai ana i te kopu kia tika i roto i te ahi, he mea e meinga ai ratou e ahau kia noho kau noa iho, kia mohio ai ratou ko Ihowa ahau.

27 Therefore speak to [the] house of Israel O son of humankind and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh again this they blasphemed me ancestors your when acted unfaithfully they against me unfaithfulness.

Mo reira korero ki te whare o Iharaira, e te tama a te tangata, mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Tenei ano tetahi kohukohu a o koutou matua ki ahau, i a ratou i mahi nei i te he ki ahau.

28 And I brought them into the land which I had lifted up hand my to give it to them and they saw every hill high and every tree leafy and they sacrificed there sacrifices their and they presented there [the] provocation of offering their and they made there [the] odor of soothing their and they poured out there drink offerings their.

Ka oti ratou te kawe e ahau ki te whenua i ara ai toku ringa kia hoatu a reira ki a ratou, na, ka kite ratou i tena pukepuke tiketike, i tena, i tena rakau pururu, i tena, na patua ana e ratou ki reira a ratou patunga tapu, tapaea ana e ratou ki reira te mea whakapataritari, ta ratou whakahere: mahia ana e ratou ta ratou whakakakara reka ki reira, ringihia ana e ratou ki reira a ratou ringihanga.

29 And I said to them what? [is] the high place where you [are] the [ones who] go there and it has been called name its Bamah until the day this.

Katahi ahau ka mea ki a ratou, He aha te pukepuke tiketike e haereere atu na koutou? Heoi huaina ana te ingoa o reira ko Pama a mohoa noa nei.

30 Therefore say - to [the] house of Israel thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh ¿ in [the] way? of ancestors your [are] you making yourselves unclean and after detestable things their [are] you? acting as prostitutes.

Mo reira mea atu ki te whare o Iharaira, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka whakapoke ranei koutou i a koutou, ka pera me o koutou matua? ka whai ranei koutou i a ratou mea whakarihariha moepuku ai?

31 And when lift up gifts your when make pass children your in the fire you [are] making yourselves unclean to all idols your until this day and I will I let myself be consulted? by you O house of Israel [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if I will let myself be consulted by you.

I te mea hoki ka tapaea e koutou a koutou mea hoatu noa, a ka meinga a koutou tamariki kia tika na roto i te ahi, e whakapoke ana ranei koutou i a koutou ano ki a koutou whakapakoko katoa a mohoa noa nei? a me rapu tikanga mai ranei i ahau ma ko utou, e te whare o Iharaira? E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, e kore ahau e pai kia uia e koutou.

32 And the [thing which] comes up on spirit your certainly not it will happen [that] which - you [are] saying we will be like the nations like [the] clans of the lands to serve wood and stone.

Na, ko te mea i puta ake ki o koutou wairua e kore rawa e taea, ta koutou e ki ra, Ka rite tatou ki nga tauiwi, ki nga hapu o nga whenua, ka mahi ki te rakau, ki te kohatu.

33 [by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if not by a hand strong and by an arm outstretched and with rage poured out I will reign over you.

E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, ina, he ringa kaha toku, he takataka maro, he weriweri kua oti te riringi atu, i ahau ka kawana nei i a koutou.

34 And I will bring out you from the peoples and I will gather you from the lands which you have been scattered among them by a hand strong and by an arm outstretched and with rage poured out.

Ka tangohia mai ano koutou e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ka huihuia i nga whenua i whakamararatia atu ai koutou, he meatanga na te ringa kaha, na te takakau maro, na te weriweri kua oti te riringi atu:

35 And I will bring you into [the] wilderness of the peoples and I will enter into judgment with you there face to face.

A ka kawea koutou e ahau ki te koraha o nga iwi, a ki reira ahau whakawa ai i a koutou, he kanohi ki te kanohi.

36 Just as I entered into judgment with ancestors your in [the] wilderness of [the] land of Egypt so I will enter into judgment with you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

Ka rite ki taku whakawa i o koutou matua i te koraha o te whenua o Ihipa; ka pena ano taku whakawa i a koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

37 And I will make pass you under the rod and I will bring you in [the] bond of the covenant.

Ka meinga ano koutou e ahau kia tika i raro i te tokotoko, kia uru ki roto ki te here o te kawenata.

38 And I will purge from you those [who] rebel and those [who] transgress against me from [the] land of sojournings their I will bring out them and into [the] land of Israel not he will go and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.

Ka tahia atu hoki e ahau i roto i a koutou te hunga whakakeke, te hunga hoki e tutu ana ki ahau: ka tangohia mai ratou e ahau i te whenua e noho nei ratou, engari e kore ratou e tae ki te oneone o Iharaira: a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa, ahau.

39 And you O house of Israel thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh everyone idols his go serve and after if not you [will be] listening to me and [the] name of holiness my not you will profane again by gifts your and by idols your.

Na, ko koutou, e te whare o Iharaira, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Haere, e mahi ki tana whakapakoko, ki tana whakapakoko, i nga wa e takoto ake nei, ki te kore koutou e rongo ki ahau: kaua ia toku ingoa tapu e whakapokea i muri ki a ko utou mea homai noa, ki a koutou whakapakoko.

40 For on [the] mountain of holiness my on [the] mountain of - [the] height of Israel [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh there they will serve me all [the] house of Israel all of it in the land there I will accept them and there I will seek contributions your and [the] choicest of gifts your with all holy things your.

Hei toku maunga tapu hoki hei te maunga o te tairangatanga o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, hei reira te whare katoa o Iharaira, ratou katoa i te whenua, mahi ai ki ahau: ko te wahi tera e manako ai ahau ki a ratou, ko te wahi tera e mea ake ai ahau ki a koutou whakahere maku, ki nga matamua o a koutou mea e tapae mai ai, ki a koutou mea tapu katoa.

41 An odor of soothing I will accept you when bring out I you from the peoples and I will gather you from the lands which you have been scattered among them and I will show myself holy among you to [the] eyes of the nations.

Ka manako ahau ki a koutou, ano he whakakakara reka, ina tangohia mai koutou e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ina huihuia mai i nga whenua i whakamararatia atu ai koutou; a ka ai koutou hei whakatapu moku i te tirohanga a nga iwi.

42 And you will know that I [am] Yahweh when bring I you into [the] land of Israel into the land which I lifted up hand my to give it to ancestors your.

Na ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ina kawea koutou e ahau ki te oneone o Iharaira, ki te whenua i ara ai toku ringa kia hoatu a reira ki o koutou matua.

43 And you will remember there ways your and all practices your which you have made yourselves unclean by them and you will loathe faces your for all wicked deeds your which you have done.

Ka mahara ano koutou i reira ki o koutou ara, ki a koutou mahi katoa i poke ai koutou; a ka whakarihariha koutou ki a koutou, ki ta koutou ake titiro, mo nga mea kikino katoa i mahia e koutou.

44 And you will know that I [am] Yahweh when do I with you for [the] sake of name my not according to ways your wicked and according to practices your corrupt O house of Israel [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

A ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ina ngana ahau ki a koutou, he mea mo toku ingoa, kahore ano ia e rite ki o koutou ara kino, ki a koutou mahi he ranei, e te whare o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

45 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

46 O son of humankind set face your [the] direction south-ward and prophesy against [the] south and prophesy against [the] forest of the field [the] south.

E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata whaka te tonga, kia maturuturu atu ano tau kupu whaka te tonga, poropititia he he mo te ngahere o te parae ki te tonga.

47 And you will say to [the] forest of the south hear [the] word of Yahweh thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] about to kindle in you - a fire and it will consume in you every tree moist and every tree dry not it will be extinguished [the] flame of flame and they will be scorched by it all faces from [the] south [the] north towards.

Mea atu hoki ki te ngahere i te tonga, Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa; Ko te kupu tenei a te ariki, a Ihowa, Ka whakaungia e ahau he ahi i roto i a koe, a ka pau nga rakau matomato katoa i roto i a koe, me nga rakau maroke katoa; e kore te mura e tineia, ka mura tonu, ka wera ano nga kanohi katoa i reira, i te tonga tae noa ki te raki.

48 And they will see all flesh that I Yahweh I have kindled it not it will be extinguished.

A ka kite nga kikokiko katoa, naku, na Ihowa i whakau: e kore e tineia.

49 And I said alas! O Lord Yahweh they [are] saying of me ¿ not making a parable parables [is] he.

Ano ra ko ahau, Aue, e te Ariki, e Ihowa! e mea ana ratou ki ahau, he teka ianei he korero whakatauki ana e korero nei?
