< Ezekiel 6 >

1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
I puta ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 Son of man, set thy face towards the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,
E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki nga maunga o Iharaira, ka poropiti ki a ratou,
3 And say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD: Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys; Behold, I, [even] I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.
Ka mea atu, E nga maunga o Iharaira, whakarongo ki te kupu a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa ki nga maunga, ki nga pukepuke, ki nga awa, ki nga raorao: Tenei ahau, ahau nei ano, te kawe nei i te hoari ki runga ki a koutou, a ka kore i ahau o koutou wahi tiketike.
4 And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain [men] before your idols.
Ka whakaururuatia a koutou aata, ka tukitukia a koutou whakapakoko: a ka maka e ahau ki mua i a koutou whakapakoko o koutou tangata i whakamatea.
5 And I will lay the dead carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones about your altars.
Ka takoto ano i ahau nga tinana o nga tama a Iharaira ki mua i a ratou whakapakoko; ka titaria ano e ahau o koutou wheua ki a koutou aata a taka noa.
6 In all your dwelling-places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your images may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.
I o koutou nohoanga katoa ka ururuatia nga pa, ka mokemoke ano nga wahi tiketike, he mea kia ururuatia ai a koutou aata, kia mokemoke ai; kia tukitukia ai ano a koutou whakapakoko, mutu ake ta ratou; ka poutoa ano a koutou whakapakoko, kia whakak ahoretia ai hoki a koutou mahi.
7 And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Ka hinga ano te parekura i roto i a koutou; a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
8 Yet will I leave a remnant, that ye may have [some] that shall escape the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through the countries.
Ka toe ano ia i ahau etahi, kia mawhiti ai etahi o koutou i te hoari i roto i nga iwi, ina titaria atu koutou ki nga whenua.
9 And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their apostate heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes which go astray after their idols: and they shall lothe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.
Na, ko te hunga o koutou e mawhiti, ka mahara ratou ki ahau i roto i nga iwi e whakaraua atu ai ratou, ki taku pakaruhanga i to ratou ngakau puremu, kua mawehe atu nei i ahau, me o ratou kanohi hoki, e haere nei ki te puremu ki o ratou whakapakok o: a anuanu iho ratou ki a ratou ano mo nga kino i mahia nei e ratou, mo a ratou mea whakarihariha katoa.
10 And they shall know that I [am] the LORD, [and that] I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them.
Ka mohio hoki ratou ko Ihowa ahau; ehara ano taku i te mea noa iho i taku kianga ka mahia tenei kino ki a ratou.
11 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Smite with thy hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas, for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, papaki tou ringa, takahi iho tou waewae, me te ki ake ano, Aue, te mate mo nga kino whakarihariha katoa o te whare o Iharaira! ka hinga hoki ratou i te hoari, i te hemokai, i te mate uruta.
12 He that is far off shall die by the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.
Ko te tangata i tawhiti ka mate i te mate uruta; ko te tangata e tata ana ka hinga i te hoari; ko te tangata e toe ana, e whakapaea ana, ka mate i te hemokai: na ka whakapaua e ahau toku riri ki a ratou.
13 Then shall ye know that I [am] the LORD, when their slain [men] shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they offered sweet savor to all their idols.
A ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau, ina takoto o ratou tangata i patua i waenganui o a ratou whakapakoko i tetahi taha o a ratou aata, i tetahi taha, i runga i nga pukepuke tiketike katoa, i runga i nga tihi katoa o nga maunga, i raro ano i nga rak au kouru nui katoa, i raro i nga oki pururu katoa, i te wahi i tukua atu ai e ratou te kakara reka ki a ratou whakapakoko katoa.
14 So will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land desolate, even, more desolate than the wilderness towards Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Ka totoro atu hoki toku ringa ki a ratou, a ka meinga te whenua kia ururua, kia takoto kau, i te koraha e anga ana ki Ripirata, puta noa i o ratou nohoanga: a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
