< Ekoruhe 33 >

1 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Haere, turia atu ki runga, koutou ko te iwi i kawea mai nei e koe i te whenua o Ihipa, ki te whenua i oati ai ahau ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, i mea ia, Ka hoatu e ahau ki ou uri:
And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward, go up hence, you and your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt, into the land which I swore to Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed.
2 A ka unga he anahera e ahau ki mua i a koe, maku ano hoki e pei nga Kanaani, nga Amori, nga Hiti, nga Perihi, nga Hiwi, me nga Iepuhi:
And I will send at the same time my angel before your face, and he shall cast out the Amorite and the Chettite, and the Pherezite and Gergesite, and Evite, and Jebusite, and Chananite.
3 Ki te whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi: e kore hoki ahau e haere atu i roto i a koe; he iwi kaki maro hoki koe: kei pau koe i ahau ki te ara.
And I will bring you into a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up with you, because you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you by the way.
4 A, i te rongonga o te iwi i tenei rongo kino, ka pouri, kihai ano i whakanohoia e tetahi ona whakapaipai.
And the people having heard this grievous saying, mourned in mourning apparel.
5 A i ki atu a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Mea atu ki nga tama a Iharaira, He iwi kaki maro koutou: kia mea kau ka puta atu ahau ki waenganui i a koe, a ka ngaro koe i ahau: na, whakarerea atu ou whakapaipai, a ka mohio ahau ki taku e mea ai ki a koe.
For the Lord said to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people; take heed lest I bring on you another plague, and destroy you: now then put off your glorious apparel, and [your] ornaments, and I will show you what I will do to you.
6 Na i aurutia e nga tama a Iharaira o ratou whakapaipai i Maunga Horepa ahu atu.
So the sons of Israel took off their ornaments and their array at the mount of Choreb.
7 Na tango ai a Mohi i te tapenakara ka whakatu ki waho o te puni ki tetahi wahi mamao atu i te puni, a huaina ana e ia, Ko te tapenakara o te whakaminenga. A i haere nga tangata katoa e rapu ana i a Ihowa, ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga, ki wa ho o te puni.
And Moses took his tabernacle and pitched it without the camp, at a distance from the camp; and it was called the Tabernacle of Testimony: and it came to pass [that] every one that sought the Lord went forth to the tabernacle which was without the camp.
8 A, i a Mohi e haere ana ki te tapenakara ka whakatika te iwi katoa, a ka tu tera, tera, i te kuwaha o tona teneti, a ka titiro ki muri i a Mohi, a haere noa ia ki roto ki te tapenakara.
And whenever Moses went into the tabernacle without the camp, all the people stood every one watching by the doors of his tent; and when Moses departed, they took notice until he entered into the tabernacle.
9 A, i a Mohi e haere ana ki roto ki te tapenakara, ka heke iho te pou kapuna, a tu ana i te whatitoka o te tapenakara, a ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi.
And when Moses entered into the tabernacle, the pillar of the cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and [God] talked to Moses.
10 A ko te kitenga o te iwi katoa i te pou kapua e tu ana i te whatitoka o te tapenakara, na ka whakatika te iwi katoa, ka koropiko hoki ia tangata, ia tangata, i te whatitoka o tona teneti.
And all the people saw the pillar of the cloud standing by the door of the tabernacle, and all the people stood and worshipped every one at the door of his tent.
11 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, he kanohi, he kanohi, pera hoki me te tangata e korero nei ki tona hoa. A hoki ana ia ki te puni: ko tana tangata ia, ko Hohua, tama a Nunu, kihai taua taitamariki i neke atu i roto i te tapenakara.
And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as if one should speak to his friend; and he retired into the camp: but his servant Joshua the son of Naue, a young man, departed not forth from the tabernacle.
12 A i mea a Mohi ki a Ihowa, Titiro, kua mea mai nei koe ki ahau, Kawea tenei iwi ki runga: a kahore i whakaaturia mai e koe ki ahau tau e unga ai hei hoa moku. Kua mea mai ano koe ki ahau, E mohio ana ahau ki a koe, ki tou ingoa hoki, kua manakoh ia ano koe e ahau.
And Moses said to the Lord, Behold! you say to me, Lead on this people; but you have not showed me whom you will send with me, but you have said to me, I know you above all, and you have favor with me.
13 Na, ki te mea kua manakohia ahau e koe, tena, whakaaturia mai ki ahau ou ara, kia mohio ai ahau ki a koe, kia manakohia ai ahau e koe; kia mahara hoki he iwi nau tenei iwi.
If then I have found favor in your sight, reveal yourself to me, that I may evidently see you; that I may find favor in your sight, and that I may know that this great nation [is] your people.
14 Na ka mea ia, Ka haere atu toku aroaro, a ka mea ahau i a koe kia okioki.
And he says, I myself will go before you, and give you rest.
15 Na ka mea ia ki a ia, Ki te kahore tou aroaro e haere, kaua matou e kawea ki runga i konei.
And he says to him, If you go not up with us yourself, bring me not up hence.
16 Ma te aha hoki e mohiotia ai kua manakohia matou ko tau iwi e koe? he teka ianei mau kia haere tahi i a matou? penei ka motuhia matou ko tau iwi i nga iwi katoa i te mata o te whenua.
And how shall it be surely known, that both I and this people have found favor with you, except only if you go with us? So both I and your people shall be glorified beyond all the nations, as many as are upon the earth.
17 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Ko tenei mea ano i korerotia mai na e koe, ka rite i ahau: no te mea e manakohia ana koe e ahau, a e mohio ana ahau ki a koe, ki tou ingoa hoki.
And the Lord said to Moses, I will also do for you this thing, which you have spoken; for you have found grace before me, and I know you above all.
18 Na ka mea ia, Tena ra, whakakitea mai ki ahau tou kororia.
And [Moses] says, Manifest yourself to me.
19 Na ka mea ia, Ka meatia e ahau toku pai katoa kia haere atu i tou aroaro, a ka karangatia e ahau te ingoa o Ihowa i tou aroaro, ka atawhai hoki ahau i taku e atawhai ai, ka tohu hoki i taku e tohu ai.
And [God] said, I will pass by before you with my glory, and I will call by my name, the Lord, before you; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and will have pity on whom I will have pity.
20 I mea ano ia, E kore e taea e koe te titiro ki toku mata: e kore hoki tetahi tangata e titiro ki ahau, a e ora.
And [God] said, You shall not be able to see my face; for no man shall see my face, and live.
21 I mea ano a Ihowa, Nana, he wahi tenei kei ahau, a me tu koe ki runga ki te kamaka:
And the Lord said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: you shall stand upon the rock;
22 A, ka haere atu toku kororia, na, ka kawea koe e ahau ki roto ki te kapiti kohatu, a ka taupokina koe e ahau ki toku ringa, i ahau e haere atu ana:
and when my glory shall pass by, then I will put you into a hole of the rock; and I will cover you over with my hand, until I shall have passed by.
23 A ka tangohia e ahau toku ringa, a ka kite koe i muri oku: ko toku mata ia e kore e kitea.
And I will remove my hand, and then shall you see my back parts; but my face shall not appear to you.
