Ehekiera 39

1 Na ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, poropititia he he mo Koko, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri ahau mou, e Koko, e te tino rangatira o Roho, o Meheke, o Tupara;

And thou, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, Rhos prince of Mesoch and Thobel:

2 A ka whakatahuritia koe e ahau, ka arahina atu koe, ka meinga hoki kia puta ake koe i nga pito rawa ki te raki, a ka kawea mai koe e ahau ki runga ki nga maunga o Iharaira.

and I will assemble thee, and guide thee, and raise thee up on the extremity of the north, and I will bring thee up upon the mountains of Israel.

3 Ka patua atu ano e ahau tau kopere i roto i tou maui, ka meinga hoki au pere kia marere i roto i tou matau.

And I will destroy the bow out of thy left hand, and thine arrows out of thy right hand, and I will cast thee down on the mountains of Israel;

4 Ka hinga koe ki runga ki nga maunga o Iharaira, a koe, me ou ropu katoa, me nga iwi i a koe: ka hoatu koe e ahau hei kai ma nga manu kai kino o ia ahau, o ia ahau, ma nga kirehe ano o te parae.

and thou and all that belong to thee shall fall, and the nations that are with thee shall be given to multitudes of birds, [even] to every fowl, and I have given thee to all the wild beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 Ka hinga koe ki te mata o te parae: naku hoki te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa,

Thou shalt fall on the face of the field: for I have spoken [it], saith the Lord.

6 Ka tukua atu ano e ahau he ahi ki a Makoko, ratou ko te hunga e noho humarie ana i nga motu, a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.

And I will send a fire upon Gog, and the islands shall be securely inhabited: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

7 A ka meinga e ahau toku ingoa tapu kia mohiotia i roto i taku iwi, i a Iharaira, e kore ano e tukua e ahau kia whakapokea toku ingoa tapu a muri ake nei: a ka mohio nga tauiwi ko Ihowa ahau, ko te Mea Tapu i roto i a Iharaira.

And my holy name shall be known in the midst of my people Israel; and my holy name shall no more be profaned: and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy [One] in Israel.

8 Nana, kua tae mai, kua oti, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; ko te ra tenei i korerotia ra e ahau.

Behold it is come, and thou shalt know that it shall be, saith the Lord God; this is the day concerning which I have spoken.

9 Ka puta ano nga tangata o nga pa o Iharaira, a ka tahuna e ratou, ka wera ano i a ratou nga patu, nga whakangungu rakau, nga puapua, nga kopere, nga pere, nga hani, nga tao; ko nga tau e tahuna ai aua mea e ratou, e whitu.

And they that inhabit the cities of Israel shall come forth, and make a fire with the arms, the shields and the spears, and bows and arrows, and hand-staves, and lances, and they shall keep fire burning with them for seven years:

10 E kore hoki e maua e ratou he wahie i te parae, e kore ano e tapahia i nga ngahere; no te mea ka tahuna e ratou nga patu ki te ahi: ka pahuatia e ratou o ratou kaipahua, ka murua nga taonga o o ratou kaimuru, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

and they shall not take any wood out of the field, neither shall they cut any out of the forests, but they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall plunder those that plundered them, and spoil those that spoiled them, saith the Lord.

11 Na a taua ra ka hoatu e ahau ki a Koko he wahi tanumanga ki reira, ki a Iharaira, ko te raorao o nga tira haere i te taha ki te rawhiti o te moana; kutia iho ki reira nga ihu o nga tira haere: ka tanumia hoki ki reira a Koko ratou ko ana mano ti ni: a ka huaina a reira, Ko te raorao o Hamono Koko.

And it shall come to pass [that] in that day I will give to Gog a place of renown, a tomb in Israel, the burial-place of them that approach the sea: and they shall build round about the outlet of the valley, and there they shall bury Gog and all his multitude: and [the place] shall then be called the burial-place of Gog.

12 A e whitu nga marama o te whare o Iharaira e tanu ana i a ratou kia watea ai te whenua.

And the house of Israel shall bury them, that the land may be cleansed in the space of seven months.

13 Ina, ka tanumia ratou e te iwi katoa o te whenua; a hei ingoa nui ki a ratou i te ra e whakakororiatia ai ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a [place] of renown in the day wherein it was glorified, saith the Lord.

14 Ka wehea ano e ratou etahi tangata, he mea tuturu, hei haere i runga i te whenua, hei tanu i nga tira haere, i te hunga e toe ana i runga i te mata o te whenua, kia watea ai: i te mutunga o nga marama e whitu ka rapu ratou.

And they shall appoint men continually to go over the land, to bury them that have been left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it after the space of seven months, and they shall seek [them] out.

15 A ka haere nga tira haere, ka tika i te whenua; ka kite tetahi i te whenua tangata, ka whakaturia e ia he tohu ki tona taha, kia tanumia ra ano e nga kaitanu ki te raorao o Hamono Koko.

And every one that goes through the land, and sees a man's bone, shall set up a mark by it, until the buriers shall have buried it in the valley, the burial place of Gog.

16 A ko Hamona hoki hei ingoa mo tetahi pa. Na ka watea te whenua.

For the name of the city [shall be] Burial-place: so shall the land be cleansed.

17 Na ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Mea atu ki nga manu o ia ahau, o ia ahua, ki nga kirehe katoa o te parae, Huihui mai, haere mai; whakamine mai koutou i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, ki taku patunga e patua nei e ahau ma koutou, he patunga nui ki runga ki nga maunga o Iharaira, kia kai kikokiko ai, kia inu toto ai koutou.

And thou, son of man, say, Thus saith the Lord; Say to every winged bird, and to all the wild beasts of the field, Gather yourselves, and come; gather yourselves from all [places] round about to my sacrifice, which I have made for you, [even] a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, and ye shall eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 Ka kai koutou i nga kikokiko o te hunga marohirohi, ka inu i nga toto o nga rangatira o te whenua, o nga hipi toa, o nga reme, o nga koati, o nga puru, he mea momona katoa no Pahana.

Ye shall eat the flesh of mighty men, and ye shall drink the blood of princes of the earth, rams, and calves and goats, and they are all fatted calves.

19 A ka kai koutou i te ngako a makona noa, ka inu hoki i te toto a haurangi, noa, he mea no taku patunga e patua e ahau ma koutou.

And ye shall eat fat till ye are full, and shall drink wine till ye are drunken, of my sacrifice which I have prepared for you.

20 Na ka makona koutou i nga hoiho o taku tepu, i nga hoiho hariata, i nga marohirohi, i nga tangata whawhai katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

And ye shall be filled at my table, [eating] horse, and rider, and mighty man, and every warrior, saith the Lord.

21 Ka whakaturia e ahau toku kororia ki roto ki nga tauiwi, a ka kite nga tauiwi katoa i taku whakawa e whakaritea e ahau, i toku ringa ano ka pa nei ki a ratou.

And I will set my glory among you, and all the nations shall see my judgment which I have wrought, and my hand which I have brought upon them.

22 Na ka mohio te whare o Iharaira, ko Ihowa ahau, ko to ratou Atua, i taua ra a ake ake.

And the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God, from this day and onwards.

23 Ka mohio ano nga tauiwi, he he no te whare o Iharaira i whakaraua ai ratou: he pokanga ketanga no ta ratou ki ahau i huna ai e ahau toku mata ki a ratou, heoi tukua ana ratou e ahau ki te ringa o o ratou hoariri: a hinga katoa ana i te hoari.

And all the nations shall know that the house of Israel were led captive because of their sins, because they rebelled against me, and I turned away my face from them, and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword.

24 Ko taku i mea ai ki a ratou rite tonu ki to ratou poke, ki o ratou pokanga ketanga, a huna ana e ahau toku mata ki a ratou.

According to their uncleannesses and according to their transgressions did I deal with them, and I turned away my face from them.

25 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka whakahokia mai e ahau aianei a Hakopa i te whakarau, ka aroha ahau ki te whare katoa o Iharaira; ka hae hoki ahau, he whakaaro ki toku ingoa tapu;

Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Now will I turn back captivity in Jacob, and will have mercy on the house of Israel, and will be jealous for the sake of my holy name.

26 A ka whakawaha e ratou to ratou whakama, o ratou pokanga ketanga katoa hoki i poka ke ai ta ratou ki ahau, ina noho humarie ratou i to ratou whenua, a kahore he tangata hei whakawehi i a ratou;

And they shall bear their reproach, and the iniquity which they committed when they dwelt upon their land in peace. Yet there shall be none to terrify [them]

27 Ina oti ratou te whakahoki mai e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ina kohikohia mai ratou i nga whenua o o ratou hoariri, a ka whakatapua ahau i runga i a ratou i te tirohanga a nga iwi maha.

when I have brought them back from the nations, and gathered them out of the countries of the nations: and I will be sanctified among them in the presence of the nations.

28 Katahi ratou ka mohio ko Ihowa ahau, ko to ratou Atua, i mea nei kia whakaraua ratou ki roto ki nga tauiwi, i kohikohi ano i a ratou ki to ratou oneone; a kahore noa iho tetahi o ratou e mahua i ahau ki reira.

And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, when I have been manifested to them among the nations.

29 E kore ano e huna e ahau toku mata a muri ake nei ki a ratou: kua ringihia hoki e ahau toku wairua ki runga ki te whare o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

And I will no more turn away my face from them, because I have poured out my wrath upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.
