Ehekiera 38
1 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
And the worde of the Lord came vnto mee, saying,
2 E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki Koko, o te whenua o Makoko, ki te rangatira o Roho, o Meheke, o Tupara, ka poropiti atu he he mona;
Sonne of man, set thy face against Gog, and against the lande of Magog, the chiefe prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophecie against him,
3 Mea atu hoki, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Koko, e te rangatira o Roho, o Meheke, o Tupara:
And say, Thus sayth the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, O Gog the chiefe prince of Meshech and Tubal.
4 Ka whakatahuritia ano koe e ahau, ka whakamaua he matau ki ou kauae, a ka whakaputaina koe ki waho, me tou ope katoa, nga hoiho, me nga kaieke hoiho, he mea whakakakahu ratou katoa ki nga kakahu o te whawhai, he ope nui me te puapua, me te whakan gungu rakau, a he hapai hoari ratou katoa.
And I wil destroy thee, and put hookes in thy chawes, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine host both horses, and horsemen, all clothed with al sorts of armour, eue a great multitude with bucklers, and shieldes, all handling swords.
5 Ko Pahia, ko Etiopia, ko Putu o ratou hoa: rite katoa ratou i te whakangungu rakau, i te potae whawhai:
They of Paras, of Cush, and Phut with the, euen all they that beare shielde and helmet.
6 A Komere, me ona ropu katoa; te whare o Tokarama, o nga pito rawa ki te raki, ratou ko ona ope katoa: ara ko nga iwi maha i tou taha.
Gomer and all his bands, and the house of Togarmah of the North quarters, and al his bands, and much people with thee.
7 Kia noho rite koe, ae ra, whakatikatika i a koe, i a koe me ou ropu katoa kua huihui nei ki a koe, a ko koe hei kaitiaki mo ratou.
Prepare thy selfe, and make thee ready, both thou, and al thy multitude, that are assembled vnto thee, and be thou their sauegard.
8 Kia maha nga ra ka tirohia koe, i nga tau whakamutunga ka tae koe ki te whenua i whakahokia mai i te hoari, i kohikohia mai i roto i nga iwi maha, ki nga maunga o Iharaira kua ururua noa ake: heoi kua oti te whakaputa mai i roto i nga iwi, a ka n oho humarie ratou katoa.
After many dayes thou shalt bee visited: for in the latter yeres thou shalt come into the land, that hath bene destroyed with the sworde, and is gathered out of many people vpon the mountaines of Israel, which haue long lien waste: yet they haue bene brought out of the people, and they shall dwell all safe.
9 A ka kake koe, ka haere mai koe me te paroro, a ka rite koe ki te kapua e taupoki ana i te whenua, a koe, me ou ropu katoa, koutou tahi ko nga iwi maha.
Thou shalt ascende and come vp like a tempest, and shalt be like a cloude to couer the land, both thou, and all thy bandes, and many people with thee.
10 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, i taua ra ka puta ake he mea i tou ngakau, a ka whakaaroa e koe he whakaaro nanakia.
Thus saith the Lord God, Euen at ye same time shall many things come into thy minde, and thou shalt thinke euil thoughts.
11 A ka mea koe, Ka haere ahau ki te whenua i nga pa kore taiepa; ka tae ahau ki te hunga e ata noho ana, e noho wehikore ana, e noho ana ratou katoa kahore he taiepa, kahore he tutaki, kahore he keti:
And thou shalt say, I wil go vp to the land that hath no walled towres: I will goe to them that are at rest, and dwell in safetie, which dwell all without walles, and haue neither barres nor gates,
12 Ki te pahua i nga taonga, ki te tango mea parakete; tahuri tonu tou ringa ki nga wahi ururua kua nohoia, ki te iwi kua oti te kohikohi mai i roto i nga tauiwi, a kua whiwhi ki te kararehe, ki te taonga, e noho ana i waenganui o te whenua.
Thinking to spoyle the pray, and to take a bootie, to turne thine hande vpon the desolate places that are nowe inhabited, and vpon the people, that are gathered out of the nations which haue gotten cattell and goods, and dwell in the middes of the land.
13 Na ka mea a Hepa, a Rerana, ratou ko nga kaihokohoko o Tarahihi, me nga kuao raiona katoa o reira ki a koe, Kua tae mai ranei koe ki te pahua taonga? kua whakaminea ranei e koe tau hui ki te tango i nga mea parakete? ki te mau atu i te hiriwa, i te koura, ki te tango i nga kararehe, i nga taonga, ki te pahua i nga taonga maha?
Sheba and Dedan, and the marchantes of Tarshish with all the lions thereof shall say vnto thee, Art thou come to spoyle the praye? hast thou gathered thy multitude to take a booty? to cary away siluer and golde, to take away cattell and goods, and to spoyle a great pray?
14 Mo reira, e te tama a te tangata, poropiti, mea atu ki a Koko, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, I te ra e noho humarie ai taku iwi, a Iharaira, e kore ianei e mohiotia e koe?
Therefore, sonne of man, prophecie, and saye vnto Gog, Thus sayeth the Lord God, In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safe, shalt thou not knowe it?
15 A tera koe e haere mai i tou wahi i nga pito rawa ki te raki, koutou ko nga iwi maha, ko ratou katoa i runga i te hoiho, he hui nui, he ope nui.
And come from thy place out of the North partes, thou and much people with thee? all shall ride vpon horses, euen a great multitude and a mightie armie.
16 A ka whakaekea e koe taku iwi a Iharaira, me te mea he kapua e taupoki ana i te whenua; a i nga ra whakamutunga ka kawea koe e ahau ki te whawhai ki toku whenua, kia mohio ai nga tauiwi ki ahau, ina ka whakatapua ahau i runga i a koe, e Koko, i ta ratou tirohanga.
And thou shalt come vp against my people of Israel, as a cloude to couer the land: thou shalt be in the latter dayes, and I will bring thee vpon my lande, that the heathen may knowe mee, when I shalbe sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Ko koe ranei tera i korerotia ra e ahau, ara e aku pononga, e nga poropiti o Iharaira, i nga ra onamata, i poropititia hoki e ratou i aua ra, he maha nga tau, taku kawenga i a koe ki a ratou?
Thus saith the Lord God, Art not thou he, of whom I haue spoken in olde time, by ye hand of my seruants the Prophets of Israel which prophecied in those dayes and yeeres, that I woulde bring thee vpon them?
18 Na a taua ra, a te ra e haere mai ai a Koko ki te whenua o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, ka puta ake toku weriweri ki oku pongaihu.
At the same time also whe Gog shall come against the land of Israel, sayth the Lord God, my wrath shall arise in mine anger.
19 Kua korero hoki ahau i runga i toku hae, i runga i te ahi o toku riri, He pono i taua ra ka nui te ru ki te whenua o Iharaira;
For in mine indignation and in the fire of my wrath haue I spoken it: surely at that time there shalbe a great shaking in the land of Israel,
20 A ka wiri nga ika o te moana ki toku aroaro, nga manu ano o te rangi, nga kirehe o te parae, nga mea ngokingoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua, me nga tangata katoa i runga i te mata o te whenua, ka turakina iho hoki nga maunga, ka h inga nga wahi poupou, ka hinga ano nga taiepa katoa ki te whenua.
So that the fishes of the sea, and the foules of the heauen, and the beasts of the field and al that moue and creepe vpon the earth, and al ye men that are vpon the earth, shall tremble at my presence, and the mountaines shalbe ouerthrowen, and the staires shall fall, and euery wall shall fall to the ground.
21 A ka karangatia e ahau he hoari hei patu mona, puta noa i oku maunga katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa: a ko te hoari a tena tangata, a tena tangata, ka anga atu ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa.
For I will call for a sworde against him throughout all my mountaines, saith the Lord God: euery mans sword shalbe against his brother.
22 A ko taku mea hei totohe ki a ia, he mate uruta, he toto; ka uaina iho ano e ahau he ua, he waipuke, he whatu nui, he ahi, he whanariki, ki a ia, ki ona ropu, ki nga iwi maha e whai ana i a ia.
And I will pleade against him with pestilence, and with blood, and I will cause to raine vpon him and vpon his bands, and vpon the great people, that are with him, a sore raine, and hailestones, fire, and brimstone.
23 Na ka whakanui ahau i ahau, ka whakatapu ano ahau i ahau; a ka mohiotia ahau i te tirohanga a nga iwi maha, a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
Thus will I be magnified, and sanctified, and knowen in the eyes of many nations, and they shall knowe, that I am the Lord.
