< Ezekiel 31 >

1 And it was in one [plus] ten year in the third [month] on [day] one of the month it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
I te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, i te toru o nga marama, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 O son of humankind say to Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and to multitude his whom? are you like in greatness your.
E te tama a te tangata, mea atu ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa, ratou ko ana mano tini; I a koe e nui na ko wai tou rite?
3 There! Assyria [was] a cedar in Lebanon beautiful of branch[es] and forest giving shade and tall of height and between branches it was treetop its.
Nana, he hita i Repanona te Ahiriana, he pai nga manga, pururu tonu, marumaru tonu, he roa rawa, purero rawa; i roto ano tona kouru i nga manga pururu.
4 Waters they made grow it [the] deep it raised up it rivers its going around planting place its and channels its it sent out to all [the] trees of the field.
Nui tonu ia, na te wai hoki, roa tonu, he mea na te wai hohonu; i rere hoki ona awa i tetahi taha o ona mahuri, i tetahi taha; i tukua atu ano ona awa ririki ki nga rakau katoa o te parae.
5 There-fore it was tall height its more than all [the] trees of the field and they became great boughs its and they became long (branches its *Q(K)*) from waters many when sent out it.
Na reira roa rawa ia, purero rawa ki runga ake i nga rakau katoa o te parae; kua maha ano ona peka, kua roroa ona manga, he maha hoki no nga wai, i a ia e kokiri ake ana.
6 In boughs its they made nests every bird of the heavens and under branches its they gave birth every animal of the field and in shade its they dwelt all nations great.
I hanga o ratou ohanga e nga manu katoa o te rangi ki ona peka, i whanau ano nga kirehe katoa o te parae ki raro i ona manga, i noho ano nga iwi nunui katoa ki raro i tona taumarumarunga iho.
7 And it was beautiful in greatness its in [the] length of branches its for it was root its to waters many.
Heoi ataahua tonu ia, i a ia i nui ra, i te roa hoki o ona manga: i te taha hoki o nga wai nui tona pakiaka.
8 Cedars not they eclipsed it in [the] garden of God fir trees not they were like boughs its and plane trees not they were like branches its every tree in [the] garden of God not it was like it in beauty its.
Kihai ia i ngaro i nga hita o ta te Atua kari; kihai nga kauri i rite ki ona peka, kihai ano nga rakau pereni i rite ki ona manga; kahore he rakau o te kari a te Atua hei rite mona; i a ia i ataahua tonu ra.
9 Beautiful I made it in [the] abundance of branches its and they envied it all [the] trees of Eden which [were] in [the] garden of God.
I meinga ia e ahau kia ataahua tonu i te maha o ona manga: a hae ana nga rakau katoa o Erene, i te kari a te Atua, ki a ia.
10 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because that you were tall in height and it set treetop its to between branches and it was lifted up heart its in height its.
Na reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; kua tiketike na koe, kua roa, a kokiri atu ana tona kouru ki roto ki nga manga pururu, a neke ake ana tona ngakau i a ia i tiketike ra;
11 And I will give it in [the] hand of a leader of nations certainly he will do to it according to wickedness its I drove out it.
Mo reira ka tukua ia e ahau ki te ringa o te mea kaha o nga tauiwi; ka nui ta tera mahi ki a ia; he kino nona i peia ai ia e ahau.
12 And they cut down it strangers ruthless [ones] of nations and they abandoned it to the mountains and in all [the] valleys they fell branches its and they were broken branches its in all [the] ravines of the land and they went down from shade its all [the] peoples of the earth and they abandoned it.
Na kua hatepea atu ia e nga tautangata, e nga mea nanakia o nga iwi, a kua whakarerea iho; kua taka ona rara ki runga ki nga maunga, ki nga awaawa katoa; kua whatiwhatiia ona manga ki te taha o nga awa katoa o te whenua; kua heke mai ano nga iwi katoa o te whenua i tona taumarumarutanga iho, whakarerea ake e ratou.
13 On fallen trunk its they dwelt every bird of the heavens and to branches its they came every animal of the field.
Kei runga i a ia, ina hinga, he kainga mo nga manu katoa o te rangi, a ka noho nga kirehe katoa o te parae ki ona manga;
14 So that that not they may be lifted up in height their any trees of water and not they may set treetop their to between branches and not they may stand leaders their by height their any drinkers of water for all of them they have been given to death to [the] earth lowest in among [the] children of humankind to [those who] go down of [the] pit.
He mea kei neke ake, kei purero ki runga tetahi o nga rakau i te taha o nga wai, kei kokiri ake o ratou kouru ki roto ki nga manga pururu, kei tu hoki, kei teitei nga rakau katoa e inu wai ana: kua tukua katoatia hoki ki te mate, ki nga wahi o r aro rawa o te whenua, ki roto ki nga tama a te tangata, ki te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.
15 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh on [the] day went down it Sheol towards I caused mourning I covered over it [the] deep and I withheld rivers its and they were restrained waters many and I made mourn on it Lebanon and all [the] trees of the field on it [were] wilted. (Sheol h7585)
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; I te ra i heke ai ia ki te rua i meinga ia e ahau kia tangihia, he whakaaro ki a ia i hipokina ai e ahau te rire, i puritia ai ona awa, a ko nga wai nunui mau rawa: a meinga ana e ahau a Repanona kia tangi k i a ia, a ko nga rakau katoa o te parae ngohe kau ki a ia. (Sheol h7585)
16 From [the] sound of downfall its I caused to tremble nations when brought down I it Sheol towards with [those who] go down of [the] pit and they were comforted in [the] earth lowest all [the] trees of Eden [the] choicest and [the] good of Lebanon all drinkers of water. (Sheol h7585)
Meinga ana e ahau kia rurea nga iwi e te haruru o tona hinganga, i taku makanga i a ia ki raro i te reinga, ratou tahi ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua: ko nga rakau katoa ano hoki o Erene, ko nga mea whiriwhiri, ko nga mea papai o Repanona, ko nga mea katoa e inu ana i te wai, ka whai whakamarietanga i nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua. (Sheol h7585)
17 Also they with it they went down Sheol towards to [those] slain of a sword and arm its [which] they dwelt in shade its in among [the] nations. (Sheol h7585)
I heke tahi ano ratou me ia ki te reinga, ki te hunga kua patua ki te hoari; ae ra, me te hunga ano i waiho nei hei ringa mona, i noho nei i raro i tona taumarumarunga iho i waenganui o nga tauiwi. (Sheol h7585)
18 Whom? are you like thus in splendor and in greatness among [the] trees of Eden and you will be brought down with [the] trees of Eden to [the] earth lowest in among uncircumcised [men] you will lie with [those] slain of a sword that [is] Pharaoh and all (multitude his *Q(K)*) [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Ko wai hei rite mou, te kororia, te nui, i roto i nga rakau o Erene? heoi ka tukua ngatahitia iho koutou ko nga rakau o Erene ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua: ka takoto koe i roto i te hunga kokotikore, i roto i te hunga i patua ki te hoari. Ko Parao tenei, ratou ko ana mano tini katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
