Ehekiera 46

1 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Me tutaki te kuwaha o to roto marae e anga ana ki te rawhiti i nga ra mahi e ono; kia tuwhera ia i te hapati, kia tuwhera ano i te ra e kowhiti ai te marama.

Thus saith the Lord God: The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east, shall be shut the six days, on which work is done; but on the sabbath day it shall be opened, yea and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

2 A ka tomo te rangatira ma te ara o te whakamahau o te kuwaha i waho, ka tu ai ki te pou o te kuwaha; katahi ka mahia e nga tohunga tana tahunga tinana, me ana whakahere mo te pai, hei te paepae ano o te kuwaha he koropikotanga mona; katahi ia ka puta atu ki waho; kauaka ia te kuwaha e tutakina a ahiahi noa.

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate from without, and he shall stand at the threshold of the gate: and the priests shall offer his holocaust, and his peace offerings: and he shall adore upon the threshold of the gate, and shall go out: but the gate shall not be shut till the evening.

3 Hei te tatau ano o taua kuwaha he koropikotanga mo te iwi o te whenua i nga hapati, i nga kowhititanga marama, ki te aroaro o Ihowa.

And the people of the land shall adore at the door of that gate before the Lord on the sabbaths, and on the new moons.

4 Na, ko te tahunga tinana e whakaherea e te rangatira ki a Ihowa hei te ra hapati, e ono nga reme he mea kahakore, he hipi toa, he mea kohakore.

And the holocaust that the prince shall offer to the Lord on the sabbath day, shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

5 Ko te whakahere totokore, kia kotahi te epa mo te hipi toa, me to nga reme whakahere totokore, ko tana e taea te homai; kotahi te epa, kia kotahi ano hine hinu.

And the sacrifice of an ephi for a ram: but for the lambs what sacrifice his hand shall allow: and a hin of oil for every ephi.

6 Na i te ra e kowhiti ai te marama ko tetahi kuao puru, he mea kohakore, e ono nga reme, kotahi te hipi toa, he mea kohakore katoa.

And on the day of the new moon a calf of the herd without blemish: and the six lambs, and the rams shall be without blemish.

7 Kia rite ano i a ia he whakahere totokore, mo te puru, kia kotahi epa; mo te hipi toa, kia kotahi epa; ko to nga reme, ko ta tona ringa e tae atu ai; kotahi te epa, kia kotahi ano hine hinu.

And he shall offer in sacrifice an ephi for a calf, an ephi also for a ram: but for the lambs, as his hand shall find: and a hin of oil for every ephi.

8 Na e tomo te rangatira ki roto, me haere ia na te ara o te whakamahau o te kuwaha; hei to reira ara ano he putanga mona.

And when the prince is to go in, let him go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and let him go out the same way.

9 Na e tomo te iwi o te whenua ki te aroaro o Ihowa i nga hakari nunui, ko te tangata i tomo na te ara o te kuwaha ki te raki ki te koropiko, hei te ara o te kuwaha ki te tonga he putanga mona; a, ko te tangata i tomo na te ara o te kuwaha ki te to nga, hei te ara o te kuwaha ki te raki he putanga mona: kaua ia e hoki na te ara o te kuwaha i tomo ai ia; engari me haere hangai atu.

But when the people of the land shall go in before the Lord in the solemn feasts, he that goeth in by the north gate to adore, shall go out by the way of the south gate: and he that; goeth in by the way of the south gate, shall go out by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go out at that over against it.

10 Na, ko te rangatira, ina tomo ratou ki roto, hei waenganui ia i a ratou; a, ina puta ratou ki waho, me puta tahi ratou.

And the prince in the midst of them, shall go in when they go in, and go out when they go out.

11 Na, ko te whakahere totokore i nga hakari, i nga whakanuinga, kotahi te epa ki te puru, kotahi te epa ki te hipi toa; ko to nga reme ano, ko te mea e taea e ia te homai; kia kotahi te hine hinu ki te epa.

And in the fairs, and in the solemnities there shall be the sacrifice of an ephi to a calf, and an ephi to a ram: and to the lambs, the sacrifice shall be as his hand shall find: and a hin of oil to every ephi.

12 Na e mahia mai e te rangatira he tahunga tinana, he mea tuku noa mai, he whakahere ranei mo te pai, he mea tuku noa mai, hei mea ki a Ihowa, me whakatuwhera e etahi te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti ki a ia, a ka mahia e ia tana tahunga tinana, me ana whakahere mo te pai, kia rite ki tana mahinga i te ra o te hapati. Katahi ia ka puta ki waho, a ka tutakina te kuwaha ina puta ia.

But when the prince shall offer a voluntary holocaust, or voluntary peace offerings to the Lord: the gate that looketh towards the east shall be opened to him, and he shall offer his holocaust, and his peace offerings, as it is wont to be done on the sabbath day: and he shall go out, and the gate shall be shut after he is gone forth.

13 Me mahi e koe he tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa i tenei ra, i tenei ra, he reme, hei te tautahi, hei te kohakore: me mahi e koe i tenei ata, i tenei ata.

And he shall offer every day for a holocaust to the Lord, a lamb of the same year without blemish: he shall offer it always in the morning.

14 Me mahi ano e koe he whakahere totokore hei kinaki i tenei ata, i tenei ata, te whakaono o te epa, me te whakatoru o te hine hinu, hei whakamakuku i te paraoa; he whakahere totokore ki a Ihowa, he mea e tuturu ana tona tikanga a ake ake.

And he shall offer the sacrifice for it morning by morning, the sixth part of ephi: and the third part of a bin of oil be mingled with the fine hour: a to the Lord by ordinance continual and everlasting.

15 Ina, me mahi te reme, me te whakahere totokore, me te hinu i tenei ata, i tenei ata, hei tahunga tinana e tuturu tonu ana.

He shall offer the lamb, and the sacrifice, and the oil morning by morning: an everlasting holocaust.

16 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ki te homai e te rangatira tetahi mea homai noa ki tetahi o ana tamariki, ka riro tera i ana tamariki; mo ratou tera, a tuku iho, tuku iho.

Thus saith the Lord God: If the prince give a gift to any of his sons: the inheritance of it shall go to his children, they shall possess it by inheritance.

17 Tena, ki te hoatu tetahi wahi o tona kainga tupu ki tetahi o ana pononga, mana tera, a taea noatia te tau haere noa; katahi ka hoki ki te rangatira: mo ana tamariki ano ia tona wahi tupu hei wahi mo ratou.

But if he give a legacy out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of release, and it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall go to his sons.

18 Kaua ano te rangatira e tango i tetahi wahi o to te iwi kainga tupu, he pei i a ratou i o ratou wahi; me homai e ia he wahi mo ana tamariki i roto i tona wahi ake; kei marara noa atu taku iwi i tona wahi, i tona wahi.

And the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance by violence, nor of their possession: but out of his own possession he shall give an inheritance to his sons: that my people be not dispersed every man from his possession.

19 Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki roto, i tika na te tomokanga i te taha o te kuwaha ki nga ruma tapu o nga tohunga, ki era e anga ana whaka te raki: na, ko tetahi wahi i reira i muri whaka te hauauru.

And he brought me in by the entry that was at the side of the gate, into the chambers of the sanctuary that were for the priests, which looked toward the north. And there was a place bending to the west.

20 Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Ko te wahi tenei e kohuatia ai e nga tohunga te whakahere mo te he, me te whakahere hara, ka tunua ano e ratou ki konei te whakaheretotokore; kei whakaputaina mai ki to waho marae whakatapu ai i te iwi.

And he said to me: This is the place where the priests shall boil the sin offering, and the trespass offering: where they shall dress the sacrifice, that they may not bring it out into the outward court, and the people be sanctified.

21 Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki to waho marae; a ka meinga e ia kia tika na nga kokonga e wha o te marae; na ko tetahi marae i tetahi kokonga, i tetahi kokonga o te marae.

And he brought me into the outward court, and he led me about by the four corners of the court: and behold there was a little court in the corner of the court, to every corner of the court there was a little court.

22 He marae kei nga kokonga e wha o te marae, he mea karapoti mai, e wha tekau nga whatianga te roa, e toru tekau te whanui: ko enei e wha i nga kokonga, rite tonu te nui.

In the four corners of the court were little courts disposed, forty cubits long, and thirty broad, all the four were of one measure.

23 Na he rarangi whare kei aua marae a taka noa, i aua marae e wha a taka noa; i mahia ano etahi wahi mo nga kohua i raro i nga rarangi, a taka noa.

And there was a wall round about compassing the four little courts, and there were kitchens built under the rows round about.

24 Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Ko nga wahi enei o nga kohua, e kohuatia ai e nga minita o te whare te patunga tapu a te iwi.

And he said to me: This is the house of the kitchens wherein the ministers of the house of the Lord shall boil the victims of the people.
