Ehekiera 30
1 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
2 E te tama a te tangata, poropiti, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Aue koutou, Taukiri e, taua ra nei!
'Son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Howl ye, ha! for the day!
3 Kua tata mai hoki te ra, te ra o Ihowa kua tata mai, he rangi tukupu, ko te wa ia o nga iwi.
For near [is] a day, near [is] a day to Jehovah! A day of clouds, the time of nations it is.
4 A ka tae mai te hoari ki Ihipa, ka nui ano te mamae o Etiopia, ina hinga nga tupapaku ki Ihipa; a ka riro atu i a ratou ona mano, ka wahia hoki ona turanga.
And come in hath a sword to Egypt, And there hath been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And broken down have been its foundations.
5 Ko Etiopia, ko Putu, ko Ruru, ko te iwi whakauru katoa, ko Kupu, ko nga tangata ano o te whenua o te kawenata, ka hinga ngatahi ratou i te hoari.
Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant with them by sword do fall,
6 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa; Ka hinga ano nga kaiawhina o Ihipa; ka riro iho ano te whakapehapeha o tona kaha; ka hinga ratou i te hoari i reira, i te taumaihi atu o Hewene, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
Thus said Jehovah: And — fallen have supporters of Egypt, And come down hath the arrogance of her strength, From Migdol to Syene, by sword they fall in her, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
7 Ka noho kau noa iho ratou i waenganui o nga whenua tuhea, ka tu ano ona pa i waenganui i nga pa kua ururuatia.
And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of wasted cities.
8 A ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina tukua e ahau he ahi ki Ihipa, ina whakamotitia ona kaiawhina katoa.
And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving fire against Egypt, And broken have been all her helpers.
9 I taua ra ka haere atu nga karere i toku aroaro i runga i nga kaipuke, ki te whakawehi i nga Etiopiana kahore nei e ohooho; ka nui ano to ratou mamae, ka rite ki to te ra o Ihipa: nana, te haere mai nei!
In that day go forth do messengers from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there hath been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for lo, it hath come.
10 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka meinga ano e ahau te ringa o Nepukareha kingi o Papurona hei whakamutu i nga mano tini o Ihipa.
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,
11 Ka kawea mai ia, ratou ano ko tona iwi, ko te hunga nanakia o nga iwi, ki te huna i te whenua: ka maunu ano a ratou hoari ki Ihipa, a ka kapi te whenua i te tupapaku.
He and his people with him — the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.
12 Ka maroke ano nga awa i ahau, ka hokona atu ano te whenua ki te ringa o te hunga kino: ka ururua ano i ahau te whenua, me ona tini mea, mea rawa ki te ringa o nga tautangata: naku, na Ihowa te kupu.
And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evil doers, And I have made desolate the land, And its fulness, by the hand of strangers, I, Jehovah, have spoken.
13 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka ngaro i ahau nga whakapakoko, ka mutu ano i ahau nga whakaahua o Nopo; kore ake e mea mai he rangatira i te whenua o Ihipa: ka tukua ano e ahau he wehi ki te whenua o Ihipa.
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And — I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And a prince of the land of Egypt there is no more, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Ka ururua ano i ahau a Patoro, ka tukua he ahi ki Toana, ka mahia ano e ahau he whakawa ki No.
And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,
15 Ka ringihia ano e ahau toku weriweri ki Hini, ki to Ihipa kaha; ka hatepea atu ano e ahau nga mano tini o No.
And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.
16 Ka tukua ano e ahau he ahi ki Ihipa; ka nui noa atu te mamae o Hini, ka haehaea putia a No; ka whai hoariri ano a Nopo i ia ra, i ia ra.
And I have given fire against Egypt, Greatly pained is Sin, and No is to be rent, And Noph hath daily distresses.
17 Ka hinga nga taitama o Awene, o Pipehete i te hoari: a ka riro enei pa i te whakarau.
The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth by sword do fall, And these into captivity do go.
18 Ka whakapouritia ano te ra ki Tehapanehe ina pakaru i ahau nga ioka o Ihipa ki reira: a ka mutu i roto i a ia te whakapehapeha o tona kaha: ko ia ano ka taupokina e te kapua, ka riro ana tamahine i te whakarau.
And in Tehaphnehes hath the day been dark, In My breaking there the yokes of Egypt, And ceased in her hath the excellency of her strength, She — a cloud doth cover her, And her daughters into captivity do go.
19 Heoi ka mahia e ahau he whakawa ki Ihipa; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.'
20 Na, i te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, i te marama tuatahi, i te whitu o nga ra o te marama, ka puta te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
And it cometh to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], in the seventh of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying: 'Son of man,
21 E te tama a te tangata, kua whati i ahau te ringa o Parao kingi o Ihipa; nana, kahore i takaia hei meatanga iho mo te rongoa, kahore i meatia iho te takai hei takai, e kaha ai ki te pupuri hoari.
The arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, I have broken, And lo, it hath not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it — to lay hold on the sword.
22 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri ahau mo Parao kingi o Ihipa, ka whati ano i ahau ona ringa, te mea kaha, te mea ano i whati; ka meinga ano e ahau te hoari kia marere i tona ringa.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,
23 Ka marara ano i ahau nga Ihipiana ki roto ki nga tauiwi, ka titaria ki nga whenua.
And scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands,
24 Ka kaha ano i ahau nga ringa o te kingi o Papurona, ka hoatu ano e ahau taku hoari ki tona ringa: ka whati ia i ahau nga ringa o Parao, a no te tangata i werohia nga aue e aue ai ia ki tona aroaro.
And strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And I have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he hath groaned the groans of a pierced one — before him.
25 A ka kaha i ahau nga ringa o te kingi o Papurona, a ka tukua iho nga ringa o Parao; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina hoatu e ahau taku hoari ki te ringa o te kingi o Papurona, a ka whakatorona atu e ia ki runga ki te whenua o Ihipa.
And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh do fall down, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he hath stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.
26 Ka marara ano i ahau nga Ihipiana ki roto ki nga iwi, ka titaria ki nga whenua; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
