Ezekiel 36
1 And thou, son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD.
Na ko koe e te tama a te tangata, poropiti atu ki nga maunga o Iharaira, mea atu, E nga maunga o Iharaira, whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa.
2 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha! and, The ancient high places are ours in possession:
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, kua mea nei te hoariri ki a koutou, Ha! na, Kua riro mai hoki mo tatou nga pukepuke onamata:
3 therefore prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Because, even because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that ye might be a possession unto the residue of the nations, and ye are taken up in the lips of talkers, and the evil report of the people:
Mo reira, poropiti atu, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, kua meinga na koutou e ratou kia tu kau, kua horomia i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, i riro ai koutou ma nga toenga o nga iwi, i hapainga ake ai e nga ngutu o nga arero kape tau, i korerotia kinotia ai e te iwi:
4 therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are round about:
Mo reira, e nga maunga o Iharaira whakarongo ki te kupu a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, ki nga maunga, ki nga pukepuke, ki nga awa, ki nga awaawa, ki nga ururua kua takoto kau, ki nga pa kua mahue, kua riro nei hei pahu atanga, hei katanga ma nga toenga o nga iwi a tawhio noa.
5 therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, which have appointed my land unto themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey:
Na reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, He pono he ahi toku hae, i ahau i korero ai i te he mo nga toenga o nga iwi, mo Eroma katoa ano; mo ta ratou meatanga i toku whenua hei kainga mo ratou, pau katoa te ngakau ki te koa, kino tonu te hi nengaro, mo tera kia peia atu, kia waiho hei taonga parau.
6 Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury, because ye have borne the shame of the heathen:
Na reira poropititia te whenua o Iharaira, ki atu ki nga maunga, ki nga pukepuke, ki nga awa, ki nga awaawa, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, kua korero ahau i runga i toku hae, i toku weriweri, no te mea e mau ana ki a koutou te whaka ma o nga tauiwi:
7 therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: I have lifted up mine hand, [saying], Surely the heathen that are round about you, they shall bear their shame.
Na reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Kua ara toku ringa kua mea, He pono, ko nga iwi i tetahi taha o koutou, i tetahi taha, ka mau ki a ratou to ratou whakama.
8 But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come.
Ko koutou ia, e nga maunga o Iharaira, ka wana o koutou manga, ka whai hua koutou ma taku iwi, ma Iharaira; ka tata hoki ratou te puta.
9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown:
No te mea, nana, ka aro ahau ki a koutou, ka tahuri ki a koutou, a ka ngakia koutou, ka whakatokia.
10 and I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, even all of it: and the cities shall be inhabited, and the waste places shall be builded:
Ka tini ano i ahau nga tangata ki a koutou, te whare katoa o Iharaira, ratou katoa, a ka mohoia nga pa, ka hanga ano nga ururua.
11 and I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase, and be fruitful: and I will cause you to be inhabited after your former estate, and will do better [unto you] than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Ka tini ano i ahau nga tangata ki a koutou, me nga kararehe; a ka tini ratou, ka hua; ka meinga hoki koutou e ahau kia nohoia, kia pera me to mua, a ka pai atu taku e mea ai ki a koutou i to o koutou timatanga: a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance, and thou shalt no more henceforth bereave them of children.
Ae ra, ka meinga koutou e ahau kia haereerea e te tangata, e taku iwi, e Iharaira; ka riro koe i a ratou, ka waiho hoki koe hei kainga tupu mo ratou, a heoi ano matenga o a ratou tamariki i a koe.
13 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Because they say unto you, Thou [land] art a devourer of men, and hast been a bereaver of thy nation;
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, kua korerotia nei ki a koutou, He kai tangata koe, e te whenua, e whakamate ana i nga tamariki a tou iwi;
14 therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nation any more, saith the Lord GOD;
Na reira e kore koe e kai tangata a muri ake nei, e kore ano e hinga i a koe ou iwi a muri nei, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 neither will I let thee hear any more the shame of the heathen, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the peoples any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nation to stumble any more, saith the Lord GOD.
Heoi ano aku meatanga kia rangona ki a koe te numinumi i nga iwi, e kore ano e mau ki a koe i nga wa i muri te tawai a nga iwi; e kore ano koe e mea i nga waewae o ou iwi kia tutuki a ake ake, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
16 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her separation.
E te tama a te tangata, i te nohoanga o te whare o Iharaira i to ratou oneone, i whakapokea a reira e ratou ki to ratou ara, ki a ratou mahi: ko to ratou ara i toku aroaro, rite tonu ki te poke o te wahine e paheke ana.
18 Wherefore I poured out my fury upon them for the blood which they had poured out upon the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols:
Heoi ringihia ana e ahau toku weriweri ki runga ki a ratou, mo te toto i tahoroa e ratou ki runga ki te whenua, mo a ratou whakapakoko hoki i whakapokea ai a reira e ratou.
19 and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
A whakamararatia atu ana ratou e ahau ki roto ki nga iwi, titaria atu ana ki nga whenua; rite tonu ki to ratou ara, ki a ratou mahi taku whakarite mo ratou.
20 And when they came unto the nations, whither they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
A, i to ratou taenga ki nga iwi i haere atu ai ratou, whakanoatia ana e ratou toku ingoa tapu, i a ratou i ki ra mo ratou, Ko te iwi tenei a Ihowa, a kua puta atu ratou i tona whenua.
21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they went.
Otiia i whai whakaaro ahau ki toku ingoa tapu i whakanoatia nei e te whare o Iharaira i roto i nga tauiwi i haere atu ai ratou.
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD: I do not [this] for your sake, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, whither ye went.
Mo reira ki atu ki te whare o Iharaira; Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ehara i te mea he whakaaro ki a koutou i mahi ai ahau i tenei, e te whare o Iharaira; engari ki toku ingoa tapu i whakanoatia nei e koutou i roto i nga tauiwi i haere atu ai koutou.
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which hath been profaned among the nations, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the nations shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
Ka whakatapua ano e ahau toku ingoa nui i whakanoatia nei i roto i nga tauiwi, ko ta koutou ra i whakanoa ai i roto i a ratou; a ka mohio nga tauiwi ko Ihowa ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, ina whakatapua ahau i roto i a koutou i to ratou aroa ro.
24 For I will take you from among the nations, and gather you out of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.
Ka tangohia mai hoki koutou e ahau i roto i nga tauiwi, ka whakaminea i nga whenua katoa, ka kawea mai ano ki to koutou oneone.
25 And I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
Ka tauhiuhia ano koutou e ahau ki te wai ma, a ka ma koutou: ka purea koutou e ahau, a kore iho o koutou poke katoa, a koutou whakapakoko katoa.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Ka hoatu ano e ahau he ngakau hou ki a koutou, ka hoatu ano e ahau he wairua hou ki roto ki a koutou; ka tangohia ano e ahau te ngakau kohatu i roto i o koutou kikokiko, a ka hoatu he ngakau kikokiko ki a koutou.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
Na ka hoatu e ahau toku wairua ki roto ki a koutou, a ka meinga koutou e ahau kia haere i runga i aku tikanga, ka puritia ano e koutou aku ritenga, ka mahia.
28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
A ka noho koutou ki te whenua i hoatu e ahau ki o koutou matua, ko koutou hoki hei iwi maku, ko ahau hei Atua mo koutou.
29 And I will save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will multiply it, and lay no famine upon you.
Ka whakaorangia ano koutou e ahau i o koutou poke katoa: ka karangatia hoki e ahau te witi, ka whakanuia hoki e ahau, e kore ano te hemokai e tukua e ahau ki a koutou.
30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more the reproach of famine among the nations.
A ka meinga e ahau kia maha nga hua o te rakau me nga mau o te mara, a heoi ano te tawai hemokai mo koutou i roto i nga tauiwi.
31 Then shall ye remember your evil ways, and your doings that were not good; and ye shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
Katahi koutou ka mahara ki o koutou ara kino, ki a koutou mahi kahore nei e pai; a ka anuanu koutou ki a koutou ano i o koutou aroaro mo o koutou kino, mo a koutou mea whakarihariha hoki.
32 Not for your sake do I [this], saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.
Ehara i te mea he whakaaro ki a koutou i mahi ai ahau i tenei, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, kia mohio koutou: kia whakama koutou, kia numinumi kau ki o koutou ara, e te whare o Iharaira.
33 Thus saith the Lord GOD: In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste places shall be builded.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; I te ra e purea ai e ahau o koutou he katoa, ka meinga e ahau nga pa kia nohoia, a ka hanga nga ururua.
34 And the land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all that passed by.
Na, ko te whenua i takoto kau ra, ka ngakia; he ururua ra hoki i mua ki te titiro a te hunga katoa e tika ana na reira.
35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are fenced and inhabited.
A ka korerotia, Ko tenei whenua i takoto kau ra, kua rite ki te kari o Erene; na, ko nga pa kua ururuatia, ko era i takoto kau ra, ko nga mea pakura, kua oti te taiepa, e nohoia ana.
36 Then the nations that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD have builded the ruined places, and planted that which was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.
Katahi ka mohio nga iwi kua mahue i tetahi taha o koutou, i tetahi taha, kua hanga e ahau, e Ihowa, nga wahi i pakaru, a kua whakatokia e ahau nga wahi kua ururuatia: naku, na Ihowa te kupu, maku ano e mahi.
37 Thus saith the Lord GOD: For this moreover will I be inquired of by the house of Israel; to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tenei ake ka uia tenei ki ahau e te whare o Iharaira, kia meatia ki a ratou; ka tokomaha ratou i ahau, me e mea he kahui te tangata.
38 As the flock for sacrifice, as the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Ka rite ki te kahui mo te whakahere, ki te kahui o Hiruharama i ona hakari nunui; ka pena ano nga pa kua ururuatia, ka kapi i nga kahui tangata; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
