Ehekiera 45

1 I nga wa ano e wehea ai e koutou te whenua hei wahi tupu, me whakahere he whakahere ma Ihowa, me whakatapu tetahi wahi o te whenua: ko tona roa ko te roa o nga kakaho e rua tekau ma rima mano; ko te whanui kotahi tekau mano. Ka tapu tenei, ona ta ha katoa a tawhio noa.

“When you divide the land by lot as an inheritance, you are to set aside a portion for the LORD, a holy portion of the land 25,000 cubits long and 20,000 cubits wide. This entire tract of land will be holy.

2 Waiho tetahi wahi o tenei, kia rima rau te roa mo te wahi tapu, kia rima rau te whanui, he tapawha a tawhio noa, kia rima tekau ano nga whatianga mo waho ake a tawhio noa.

Within this area there is to be a section for the sanctuary 500 cubits square, with 50 cubits around it for open land.

3 Me whanganga ano e koe tetahi wahi o tenei ka oti nei te whanganga kia rua tekau ma rima mano te roa, kia tekau mano te whanui: a hei reira te wahi tapu, te wahi tapu rawa.

From this holy portion, you are to measure off a length of 25,000 cubits and a width of 10,000 cubits, and in it will be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.

4 He wahi tapu ia no te whenua; mo nga tohunga tera, mo nga minita o te wahi tapu e whakatata ana ki te minita ki a Ihowa: hei wahi ano tera mo o ratou whare, hei wahi tapu ano mo te wahi tapu.

It will be a holy portion of the land to be used by the priests who minister in the sanctuary, who draw near to minister before the LORD. It will be a place for their houses, as well as a holy area for the sanctuary.

5 Ko te rua tekau ma rima mano nei te roa, tekau mano te whanui, mo nga Riwaiti, mo nga minita o te whare, hei wahi mo ratou, mo nga ruma e rua tekau.

An adjacent area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide shall belong to the Levites who minister in the temple; it will be their possession for towns in which to live.

6 Me whakarite ano e koutou te wahi mo te pa, e rima mano te roa, ki te taha o te wahi tapu ka whakaherea nei: mo te whare katoa o Iharaira tera.

As the property of the city, you are to set aside an area 5,000 cubits wide and 25,000 cubits long, adjacent to the holy district. It will belong to the whole house of Israel.

7 A, he aha he wahi mo te rangatira, hei tetahi taha, hei tetahi taha o te wahi tapu ka whakaherea nei, o te wahi ano i te pa, ki mua o te wahi tapu ka whakaherea nei, o te wahi hoki i te pa, i te taha ki te hauauru whaka te hauauru, i te taha hoki ki te rawhiti, whaka te rawhiti, kia rite ano te roa ki tetahi o aua wahi, me timata i te rohe ki te hauauru a tae noa ki te rohe ki te rawhiti.

Now the prince will have the area bordering each side of the area formed by the holy district and the property of the city, extending westward from the western side and eastward from the eastern side, running lengthwise from the western boundary to the eastern boundary and parallel to one of the tribal portions.

8 Kei te whenua te wahi mona i roto i a Iharaira: e kore ano aku rangatira e whakatupu kino i taku iwi a muri ake nei; engari me hoatu e ratou te whenua ki te whare o Iharaira, ki tenei hapu, ki tenei hapu.

This land will be his possession in Israel. And My princes will no longer oppress My people, but will give the rest of the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

9 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kati ta koutou, e nga rangatira o Iharaira; whakarerea atu te tukino, te pahua, mahia te whakawa, me te tika, whakamutua a koutou peinga i taku iwi, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Enough, O princes of Israel! Cease your violence and oppression, and do what is just and right. Stop dispossessing My people, declares the Lord GOD.’

10 Kia tika a koutou pauna, kia tika te epa, kia tika te pati.

You must use honest scales, a just ephah, and a just bath.

11 Kia kotahi te mehua mo te epa, mo te pati; ko te pati he whakatekau no te homa, ko te epa hoki he whakatekau no te homa: ko te mehua mo taua mea ko te homa.

The ephah and the bath shall be the same quantity so that the bath will contain a tenth of a homer, and the ephah a tenth of a homer; the homer will be the standard measure for both.

12 A ko te hekere kia rua tekau nga kera: ko ta koutou mane kia rua tekau hekere, kia rua tekau ma rima hekere, kia kotahi tekau ma rima hekere.

The shekel will consist of twenty gerahs. Twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels will equal one mina.

13 Ko te whakahere tenei e whakaherea e koutou; he witi, ko te wahi tuaono o te epa o te homa; a me homai e koutou he parei, hei te wahi tuaono o te epa o te homa.

This is the contribution you are to offer: a sixth of an ephah from each homer of wheat, and a sixth of an ephah from each homer of barley.

14 Na, ko te tikanga mo te hinu, mo te pati hinu, hei te whakatekau o te pati i roto i te koro, he homa nei tana, ara tekau nga pati; kotahi tekau hoki nga pati o te homa:

The prescribed portion of oil, measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath from each cor (a cor consists of ten baths or one homer, since ten baths are equivalent to a homer).

15 Kia kotahi ano reme i roto i te kahui, i roto i nga rau e rua, he mea no nga haereerenga makuku o Iharaira; hei whakahere totokore, hei tahunga tinana, hei whakahere mo te pai, hei mea whakamarie mo ratou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

And one sheep shall be given from each flock of two hundred from the well-watered pastures of Israel. These are for the grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to make atonement for the people, declares the Lord GOD.

16 Me hoatu tenei whakahere e te iwi katoa o te whenua ki te rangatira i roto i a Iharaira.

All the people of the land must participate in this contribution for the prince in Israel.

17 Na, ko tenei ta te rangatira, he homai i nga tahunga tinana, i nga whakahere totokore, i nga ringihanga, mo nga hakari, mo nga kowhititanga marama, mo nga hapati, mo nga huihuinga nui katoa o te whare o Iharaira: kia rite mai ano i a ia te whaka here hara, te whakahere totokore, te tahunga tinana, nga whakahere mo te pai, hei whakamarie mo te whare o Iharaira.

And it shall be the prince’s part to provide the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings for the feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—for all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel. He will provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings to make atonement for the house of Israel.

18 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua; I te marama tuatahi, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, me tiki e koe he puru kuao, hei te mea kohakore, ka pure i te wahi tapu.

This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘On the first day of the first month you are to take a young bull without blemish and purify the sanctuary.

19 Me tango ano e te tohunga tetahi wahi o te toto o te whakahere hara, ka pani ki nga pou o te whare, ki nga koki e wha ano o te papa o te aata, ki nga pou ano o te kuwaha o to roto marae.

And the priest is to take some of the blood from the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the gateposts of the inner court.

20 Ko tau ano tera e mea ai i te whitu o nga ra o te marama hei mea mo te tangata i te he, mo te kuware: a ka oti te whakamarie mo te whare.

You must do the same thing on the seventh day of the month for anyone who strays unintentionally or in ignorance. In this way you will make atonement for the temple.

21 Hei te marama tuatahi, hei te tekau ma wha o nga ra o te marama, ta koutou kapenga, he hakari, e whitu nga ra; ko te taro hei kai, he mea rewenakore.

On the fourteenth day of the first month you are to observe the Passover, a feast of seven days, during which unleavened bread shall be eaten.

22 Kia rite mai ano hoki i te rangatira i taua ra, he puru hei whakahere hara mona, mo te iwi katoa o te whenua.

On that day the prince shall provide a bull as a sin offering for himself and for all the people of the land.

23 Kia rite mai ano i a ia i nga ra e whitu o te hakari te tahunga tinana ma Ihowa, e whitu nga puru, e whitu nga hipi toa, he mea kohakore i tenei ra, i tenei ra, i nga ra e whitu; me tetahi kuao koati i tenei ra, i tenei ra, hei whakahere hara.

Each day during the seven days of the feast, he shall provide seven bulls and seven rams without blemish as a burnt offering to the LORD, along with a male goat for a sin offering.

24 Kia rite mai ano i a ia he whakahere totokore, kotahi te puru kia kotahi ano te epa, kotahi te hipi toa kia kotahi ano te epa, kotahi te epa kia kotahi hine hinu.

He shall also provide as a grain offering an ephah for each bull and an ephah for each ram, along with a hin of olive oil for each ephah of grain.

25 I te whitu o nga marama, i te tekau ma rima o nga ra o te marama, i te hakari, ka mahia mai e ia enei mea, kia whitu nga ra; kia rite ki te whakahere hara, ki te tahunga tinana, ki te whakahere totokore, ki te hinu hoki.

During the seven days of the feast that begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, he is to make the same provision for sin offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings, and oil.’
