Ezekiel 44

1 And he brought back me [the] way of [the] gate of the sanctuary outer which faces east and it [was] shut.

Katahi ahau ka whakahokia e ia na te ara o te kuwaha o waho o te wahi tapu e anga ana ki te rawhiti; na kua oti te tutaki.

2 And he said to me Yahweh the gate this shut it will be not it will be opened and anyone not he will go in it for Yahweh [the] God of Israel he has gone in it and it will be shut.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ko tenei kuwaha me tutaki tonu, e kore e whakatuwheratia, e kore ano tetahi tangata e tomo ma konei: no te mea i na konei atu a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira; na reira i tutakina ai.

3 The prince prince he he will sit in it (to eat *Q(K)*) bread before Yahweh from [the] way of [the] porch of the gate he will come and from way its he will go out.

Tena ko te rangatira, me noho ia ki konei, he rangatira, ki te kai taro i te aroaro o Ihowa, ko tona ara ki roto kei te whakamahau o taua kuwaha; ko tona ara ano tena ki waho.

4 And he brought me [the] way of [the] gate of the north to [the] face of the house and I saw and there! it filled [the] glory of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh and I fell to face my.

Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia na te ara o te kuwaha ki te raki, ki te aronga o te whare: na, i taku tirohanga atu, nana, kua ki te whare o Ihowa i te kororia o Ihowa, a tapapa ana ahau.

5 And he said to me Yahweh O son of humankind set heart your and see with eyes your and with ears your hear all that I [am] speaking you of all [the] statutes of [the] house of Yahweh and of all (laws its *Q(K)*) and you will set heart your to [the] entrance of the house on all [the] exits of the sanctuary.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata anga mai tou ngakau, titiro hoki ou kanohi, whakarongo ano ou taringa ki nga mea katoa e korero ai ahau ki a koe mo nga tikanga katoa o te whare o Ihowa, mo nga ture katoa ano o reira; ata mahara ano ki te tomokanga atu ki te whare, ki nga putanga katoa hoki i te wahi tapu.

6 And you will say to rebellion to [the] house of Israel thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [was too] much for you for all abominations your O house of Israel.

Me ki atu ano e koe ki te hunga whakakeke, ki te whare o Iharaira, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kati ra a koutou mea whakarihariha, e te whare o Iharaira.

7 When brought you sons of foreignness uncircumcised of heart and uncircumcised of flesh to be in sanctuary my to profane it house my when brought near you food my fat and blood and they broke covenant my because of all abominations your.

Kua kawea mai na hoki e koutou he tautangata, he hunga kihai i kotia te ngakau, kihai i kotia te kikokiko, ki toku wahi tapu noho ai, hei whakapoke mo reira, ara mo toku whare, i te mea e whakaherea ana e koutou taku taro, te ngako, me te toto, a he iho taku kawenata i a ratou, hei apiti ki a koutou mea whakarihariha katoa.

8 And not you kept [the] charge of holy things my and you appointed [them]! to [the] keepers of charge my in sanctuary my for yourselves.

Kihai ano i mau i a koutou te tiaki i aku mea tapu: heoi whakaritea ana e koutou a koutou ake kaitiaki mo aku mea i roto i toku wahi tapu.

9 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh any son of foreignness uncircumcised of heart and uncircumcised of flesh not he will go into sanctuary my to every son of foreignness who [is] in among [the] people of Israel.

Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kaua tetahi tautangata kihai i kotia te ngakau, kihai i kotia te kikokiko, e tomo ki toku wahi tapu, o nga tautangata katoa i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.

10 That except the Levites who they became distant from with me when went astray Israel who they went astray from with me after idols their and they will bear iniquity their.

Engari, ko nga Riwaiti i mawehe atu ra i ahau, i te kotititanga ketanga o Iharaira, i a ratou i kotiti atu ai i ahau, i whai ai i a ratou whakapakoko: ka mau ki a ratou to ratou kino.

11 And they will be in sanctuary my serving overseers to [the] gates of the house and serving the house they they will slaughter the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people and they they will stand before them to serve them.

Otiia hei minita ano ratou i roto i toku wahi tapu, hei tiaki i nga kuwaha o te whare, hei minita ki te whare: ma ratou e patu te tahunga tinana me te patunga tapu a te iwi, me tu ano ratou ki to ratou aroaro minita ai ki a ratou.

12 Because that they served them before idols their and they became for [the] house of Israel a stumbling block of iniquity there-fore I lift up hand my on them [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and they will bear iniquity their.

No te mea i minita ratou ki a ratou i te aroaro o a ratou whakapakoko, a meinga ana e ratou te whare o Iharaira kia taka ki te kino; na reira i ara ai toku ringa ki a ratou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; ka mau ki a ratou to ratou kino.

13 And not they will draw near to me to serve as priests me and to draw near to all holy things my to [the] holy things of the holy things and they will bear disgrace their and abominations their which they have done.

E kore ano ratou e whakatata ki ahau, hei tohunga maku, e kore ano e whakatata ki tetahi o aku mea tapu i te wahi tapu rawa: engari, ka mau to ratou whakama ki a ratou, me a ratou mea whakarihariha i mahia e ratou.

14 And I will make them [the] keepers of [the] charge of the house for all service its and for all that it will be done in it.

Otira ka meinga ratou e ahau hei kaitiaki mo nga mea o te whare, mo nga mahi katoa o reira, mo nga mea katoa ano e meatia ki reira.

15 And the priests the Levites [the] sons of Zadok who they kept [the] charge of sanctuary my when went astray [the] people of Israel from with me they they will draw near to me to serve me and they will stand before me to bring near to me fat and blood [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

Engari era tohunga, nga Riwaiti, nga tama a Haroko, i tiaki nei i nga mea o toku wahi tapu, i nga tama a Iharaira i kotiti ke atu ra i ahau, ko ratou e whakatata ki ahau ki te minita ki ahau, ka tu ano ratou i toku aroaro hei whakahere i te ngak o, i te toto, ki ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa:

16 They they will come into sanctuary my and they they will draw near to table my to serve me and they will keep charge my.

Ko ratou e tomo ki roto ki toku wahi tapu, ko ratou ano e whakatata ki taku tepu hei minita ki ahau, ma ratou ano aku mea e tiaki.

17 And it will be when come they into [the] gates of the courtyard inner clothes of linen they will be clothed and not it will go up on them wool when serve they at [the] gates of the courtyard inner and [the] inside towards.

A ka tomo ratou ki roto ki nga kuwaha o to roto marae, hei te kakahu rinena he kakahu mo ratou; kaua hoki tetahi mea huruhuru e mau ki a ratou, i a ratou e minita ana i roto i nga kuwaha o to roto marae, i roto ano i te whare.

18 Head-dresses of linen they will be on head their and undergarments of linen they will be on loins their not they will gird themselves with sweat.

He potae rinena mo o ratou mahunga, he tarautete rinena ano hoki mo o ratou hope; kaua e whitikiria e ratou he mea e heke ai te werawera.

19 And when go out they into the courtyard outer into the courtyard outer to the people they will take off clothes their which they [were] serving in them and they will set down them in [the] rooms of holiness and they will put on clothes other and not they will consecrate the people by clothes their.

Na ka haere atu ratou ki to waho marae, ara ki te marae i waho, ki te iwi, me unu o ratou kakahu i minita ai ratou, ka waiho ki nga ruma tapu, a me kakahu etahi atu kakahu; kei tapu te iwi i o ratou kakahu.

20 And head their not they will shave and hair not they will let loose surely they will trim heads their.

Kaua ano ratou e heu i o ratou mahunga, kaua nga makawe e whakatupuria kia roa; ko te kutikuti anake mo o ratou mahunga.

21 And wine not they will drink any priest when come they into the courtyard inner.

Kaua ano tetahi tohunga e inu waina, ina haere ratou ki to roto marae.

22 And a widow and a divorced [woman] not they will take for themselves to wives that except virgins from [the] offspring of [the] house of Israel and the widow who she will be a widow from a priest they will take.

Kaua ano ratou e tango i te pouaru, i te mea ranei i whakarerea, hei wahine ma ratou; engari, ko ta ratou e tango ai hei nga wahine o nga uri o te whare o Iharaira, hei te pouaru ranei a tetahi tohunga.

23 And people my they will instruct between a holy thing and a profane thing and between an unclean [thing] and a clean [thing] they will make known to them.

A me whakaako e ratou toku iwi ki te wehe i te tapu, i te noa; me mea kia mohio ki te poke, ki te ma.

24 And on a dispute they they will stand (for judgment *Q(K)*) by judgments my (they will judge it *Q(K)*) and laws my and statutes my in all appointed times my they will observe and sabbaths my they will sanctify.

I te tautohetohenga hoki me tu ratou hei whakawa; kia rite ano a ratou whakawa ki aku whakawa; me pupuri e ratou aku ture, me aku tikanga i roto i aku hakari whakarite katoa; me whakatapu ano e ratou aku hapati.

25 And to dead a person not he will go to become unclean that except for a father and for a mother and for a son and for a daughter for a brother and for a sister who not she has belonged to a husband they will make themselves unclean.

Kaua ano ratou e tae ki te tupapaku, whakapoke ai i a ratou; e whakapoke ano ia ratou i a ratou ano mo te papa, mo te whaea, mo te tama, mo te tamahine, mo te tuakana, teina ranei, mo te tuahine kahore nei ana tahu.

26 And after purification his seven days people will count for him.

A, ka oti ia te pure, me tatau kia whitu nga ra mona.

27 And on [the] day goes he into the holy place into the courtyard inner to serve in the holy place he will bring near sin offering his [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

Na, a te ra e tomo ai ia ki te wahi tapu, ki to roto marae, ki te minita i roto i te wahi tapu, me whakahere e ia tana whakahere hara, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

28 And it will become for them an inheritance I [am] inheritance their and a possession not you will give to them in Israel I [am] possession their.

A ka whai kainga tupu ratou; ko ahau hei kainga tupu mo ratou: kaua hoki tetahi kainga e hoatu ki a ratou i roto i a Iharaira: ko ahau hei kainga mo ratou.

29 The grain offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering they they will eat them and every devoted thing in Israel to them it will belong.

Ko te whakahere totokore, ko te whakahere hara, ko te whakahere mo te he, hei kai ma ratou; ma ratou ano nga mea katoa i oti rawa mai i roto i a Iharaira.

30 And [the] best of all [the] first-fruits of everything and every contribution of everything from all contributions your to the priests it will belong and [the] best of dough your you will give to the priest to cause to rest blessing to house your.

Na, ko te tuatahi o nga matamua katoa o nga mea katoa, me nga whakahere katoa o a koutou tini whakahere katoa, ma nga tohunga; me te tuatahi ano o ta koutou paraoa pokepoke, me hoatu e koutou ki te tohunga, kia tau ai he manaaki ki tou whare.

31 Any carcass and torn flesh from the bird[s] and from the animal[s] not they will eat the priests.

Kaua te tohunga e kai i te mea mate maori, i te mea ranei i haea, ahakoa manu, ahakoa kararehe.
