< UHezekheli 2 >

1 Wathi kimi, “Ndodana yomuntu, sukuma ume ngezinyawo zakho ngikhulume lawe.”
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, e tu ou waewae ki runga, a ka korero ahau ki a koe.
2 Esakhuluma uMoya wafika kimi wangimisa ngezinyawo zami, ngamuzwa esekhuluma lami.
Na kua tae mai te wairua ki roto ki ahau i tana korerotanga ki ahau, i tana meatanga kia tu oku waewae ki runga; a ka rongo ahau i a ia e korero ana ki ahau.
3 Wathi, “Ndodana yomuntu, ngiyakuthuma kuma-Israyeli, isizwe esihlamukayo esangihlamukelayo, laboyise bangihlamukela kuze kube yilolusuku.
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ka unga koe e ahau ki nga tama a Iharaira, ki nga iwi whakakeke, kua whakakeke nei ki ahau; ko ratou ko o ratou matua kua tutu ki ahau a taea noatia tenei ra nei ano.
4 Abantu engikuthuma kubo balenkani njalo bayiziqholo. Wothi kubo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi.’
A ko nga tamariki he whakatoi, he kaki maro; na ka unga koe e ahau ki a ratou, a me ki atu e koe ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa.
5 Njalo langabe bayalalela loba bangalaleli ngoba bayindlu ehlamukayo, bazakwazi ukuthi umphrofethi ubekhona phakathi kwabo.
Na ko ratou, ma ratou e rongo, ma ratou e kore e rongo, he whare whakakeke hoki ratou, ka mohio, na i roto i a ratou te poropiti e noho ana.
6 Njalo wena ndodana yomuntu, ungabesabi kumbe wesabe amazwi abo. Ungesabi lanxa usuhonqolozelwe ngameva njalo usuhlala phakathi kwabofezeya. Ungakwesabi lokho abakutshoyo loba uthuthunyeliswe yibo, lanxa beyindlu ehlamukayo.
Na ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, kaua e wehi i a ratou, kaua e wehi i a ratou kupu, ahakoa he tataramoa, he tumatakuru i tou taha, a e noho ana koe i roto i nga kopiona; kaua e wehi i a ratou kupu, kaua hoki e pairi ina titiro mai ratou, ahakoa he whare whakakeke ratou.
7 Kumele ukhulume amazwi ami kubo langabe bayalalela loba kabalaleli, ngoba bangabahlamuki.
Me korero ano e koe aku kupu ki a ratou, ma ratou e whakarongo, ma ratou ranei e kore e whakarongo: nui atu hoki to ratou whakakeke.
8 Kodwa wena, ndodana yomuntu, lalela lokhu engikutshoyo kuwe. Ungahlamuki njengendlu leyana ehlamukayo; vula umlomo wakho udle lokhu engikupha khona.”
Ko koe ia, e te tama a te tangata, whakarongo ki taku e mea nei ki a koe; Kaua koe e whakakeke, kei rite ki taua whare whakakeke: hamama tou mangai, kainga hoki te mea ka hoatu nei e ahau ki a koe.
9 Ngakhangela ngabona isandla esaselulelwe kimi. Phakathi kwaso kwakulomqulu,
Na, i taku tirohanga atu, nana, ko tetahi ringa e totoro mai ana ki ahau; nana, ko tetahi pukapuka i roto i te ringa;
10 awutshombulula phambi kwami. Emaceleni awo womabili kwakubhalwe amazwi okukhala lokulila kanye losizi.
Na wherahia ana e ia taua pukapuka ki toku aroaro, he mea tuhituhi a roto, a waho: ko te mea i tuhituhia ki reira he tangi, he uhunga, he aue.
