< Ezekiel 45 >

1 “‘When the land of Israel is divided [among the twelve tribes], you must present to me, Yahweh, one part of the land to be a sacred district. It will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide. That entire area will be (holy/set apart for me).
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.
2 Part of that area, (875 feet/265 meters) on each side, will be for the temple area. An additional strip of ground, (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) wide, will be left empty all around the temple area.
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.
3 Inside that sacred district, measure a section (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide.
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.
4 That section will be the sacred portion of the land for the priests who work in the temple and who come near to me to serve me. It will be a place for their houses as well as being a holy place for the temple.
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.
5 An area (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide will be for the descendants of Levi who work in the temple. That area will belong to them, and they will be permitted to build cities there to live in.
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.
6 Alongside that sacred area will be a section of land that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide. It will be for a city where anyone in Israel [MTY] will be permitted to live.
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.
7 The king will have two sections of land; one will be on the western side of the sacred district and other will be on the eastern side of the sacred district. The one on the western side will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The one on the eastern side will extend east to the eastern end of the country. The eastern and western borders of the king’s land will be next to the areas allotted to the tribes.
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.
8 That land will be the land in Israel that belongs to the king. So, [because the kings will have their own land], they will no longer need to oppress my people and steal [land] from them. They will assign the remaining parts of the land to the people, giving a part to each tribe.
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.
9 This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You kings of Israel must stop acting violently and oppressing the people! You must do what is fair and right [DOU]. Stop taking land from the people!
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.
10 And you must use accurate scales, and accurate containers for measuring things.
Kia tika a koutou pauna, kia tika te epa, kia tika te pati.
11 The baskets for measuring dry things and containers for measuring liquids must be the same size; each must hold 175 quarts/liters.
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.
12 When you weigh things, you must use weights that everyone accepts as being correct [MTY].’”
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.
13 “‘You must present to the king one bushel of wheat or barley for every 60 that you harvest.
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.
14 And you must give him one quart/liter of olive oil for every 100 quarts/liters that you make.
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:
15 Also, I, Yahweh, declare that you must take one sheep from each 200 sheep in your flocks in the pastures of Israel. Those things that you take to the king will be used with the offerings of things made from grain and for the offerings that will be completely burned and the offerings to maintain fellowship with me, offerings in order for me to forgive you for the sins that you have committed.
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.
16 All the Israeli people must join in bringing those offerings to the king of Israel.
Me hoatu tenei whakahere e te iwi katoa o te whenua ki te rangatira i roto i a Iharaira.
17 The king must provide the animals to be completely burned on the altar, grain for the grain offerings, and wine for the wine offerings for the sacred festivals that I have appointed for the people of Israel—including the festivals to celebrate each new moon and the Sabbaths. He must provide [the animals for] the offerings for the people to become acceptable to me, grain for the grain offerings, animals to be completely burned [on the altar], and offerings to maintain fellowship with me, Yahweh, in order that I will forgive the Israeli people for their sins.
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.
18 This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare: On the first day of the first month [of each year] you must take one young bull that has no defects and [sacrifice it to] cause the temple to be acceptable to me.
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.
19 The [Supreme] Priest must take some of the blood of the offering to cause people to become acceptable to me, and smear it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge of the altar, and on the entry posts of the inner courtyard.
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.
20 He must do the same thing on the seventh day of the month for any people who sin without intending to sin or without realizing that what they did is sinful. By doing that you will purify the temple.
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.
21 In the first month of each year, on the 14th day of the month, you must start to celebrate the Passover Festival. The festival will last for seven days. During that time you must not eat bread made with yeast.
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.
22 On the first day, the king must provide a bull to be an offering for himself and for the all the other people of the country.
Kia rite mai ano hoki i te rangatira i taua ra, he puru hei whakahere hara mona, mo te iwi katoa o te whenua.
23 And every day during those seven days he must provide seven young bulls and seven rams that have no defects, to be an offering for the people’s sins.
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.
24 He must also provide a half bushel of grain to be an offering, and also four quarts of olive oil, for each bill and ram.
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.
25 During the seven days of the festival [of Living in Temporary Shelters], which starts on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of each year, the king must provide the same things for offerings for the people’s sins, for offerings to be completely burned, for grain offerings, and the same amount of olive oil that he provided each day [during the Passover Festival].’”
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.
