Ehekiera 32

1 Na, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau, i te tekau ma rua o nga marama, i te tuatahi o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,

And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2 E te tama a te tangata, kia ara tou tangi mo Parao kingi o Ihipa, mea atu hoki ki a ia, Ko tou rite kei te kuao raiona o nga iwi; otiia e rite ana koe ki te tarakona o nga moana: i kokiri mai ano koe me ou awa, pokarekare ana nga wai i ou waewae, poke ana i a koe o ratou awa.

Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and say unto him, Thou didst deem thyself like a young lion among the nations: while thou art as a crocodile in the seas; and thou issuedst forth with thy rivers, and madest turbid the waters with thy feet, and didst stir up their rivers.

3 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ka horahia e ahau taku kupenga ki runga ki a koe, he huihuinga hoki no nga iwi maha; a ka riro ake koe i a ratou i taku kupenga.

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will therefore spread out my net over thee through the assemblage of many people, and they shall draw thee up in my net.

4 Ka waiho ano koe e ahau ki runga ki te whenua, ka akiritia atu ano koe ki te mata o te parae, maku ano e mea kia nohoia koe e nga manu katoa o te rangi, kia makona ano nga kirehe o te whenua katoa i a koe.

Then will I cast thee upon the land, upon the open field will I hurl thee, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to dwell upon thee, and I will satisfy off thee the beasts of all the earth.

5 Ka takoto ano i ahau ou kikokiko ki runga ki nga maunga, ka whakakiia ano nga awaawa ki a koe e tiketike na.

And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy carcass.

6 Ka whakamakukuria ano e ahau ki ou toto te whenua e kau na koe, a tutuki noa ki nga maunga; ka ki ano hoki nga awa i a koe.

I will also saturate the land wherein thou swimmest with thy blood, even to the mountains; and the ravines shall be full of thee.

7 A ka oti koe te tinei e ahau, ka hipokina e ahau te rangi, ka whakapouritia ano hoki nga whetu o reira; ka hipokina e ahau te ra ki te kapua, e kore ano e titi te atarau.

And I will cover up the heavens, when thou art quenched, and make their stars obscure: the sun will I cover up with a cloud, and the moon shall not let shine her light.

8 Na, ko nga whakamarama katoa e marama nei te rangi, ka whakapouritia e ahau ki runga ki a koe, ka hoatu ano e ahau he pouri ki runga ki tou whenua, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

All the light-dispensing lights of the heavens—these will I make obscure because of thee, and I will lay darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord Eternal.

9 He maha ano nga iwi e mamae o ratou ngakau i ahau, ina meinga e ahau kia tae atu tou whakangaromanga ki nga iwi, ki nga whenua kihai i mohiotia e koe.

And I will aggrieve the heart of many people, when I bring those who are broken off from thee among the nations, into countries which thou hast not known.

10 Ina, he maha nga iwi e meinga e ahau kia ketekete ki a koe, ka nui ano te wehi o o ratou kingi, ina whakaaro ki a koe, ua wherikoriko taku hoari ki to ratou aroaro; hono tonu ano to ratou wiri, ia tangata, ia tangata, i te wehi mo tona oranga an o, i te ra e hinga ai koe.

Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, and on their kings the hair shall stand on end because of thee, when I brandish my sword before their faces: and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, on the day of thy downfall.

11 No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tera e tae atu te hoari a te kingi o Papurona ki a koe

For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The sword of the king of Babylon shall come over thee.

12 Ka meinga e ahau ou mano tini, te hunga nanakia o nga iwi, ratou katoa kia hinga i nga hoari a nga marohirohi: a ka pahuatia e ratou nga mea whakai o Ihipa, ka ngaro ano o reira mano tini katoa.

By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the fiercest of nations are all of them: and they shall destroy the pride of Egypt, and all her multitude shall be annihilated.

13 Ka ngaro ano i ahau o reira kararehe katoa i te taha o nga wai maha; e kore ano e pokarekare i te wae tangata a muri ake nei, e kore ano e ngarungaru i te wae kararehe.

And I will cause to vanish all her beasts from beside the great waters; and the foot of man shall not make them turbid any more, nor shall the hoofs of beasts make them turbid.

14 Ko reira ahau mea ai i o ratou wai kia purata, ka meinga ano e ahau o ratou awa kia rite ki te hinu te rere, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Then will I make clear their waters, and cause their rivers to flow like oil, saith the Lord Eternal;

15 Kia meinga e ahau te whenua o Ihipa hei ururua, a kore iho nga tini mea o te whenua, kia patua ano e ahau te hunga katoa e noho ana i reira, katahi ratou ka mohio ko Ihowa ahau.

When I render the land of Egypt desolate and wasted, the country bereft of what now filleth it, when I smite all those that dwell therein: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

16 Ko te tangi tenei e tangihia ai ia e ratou, ka tangihia ia e nga tamahine a nga iwi: ka tangihia ia e ratou, ara a Ihipa ratou ko ona mano tini, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

This is the lamentation wherewith they shall lament for her; the daughters of the nations shall lament for her: for Egypt, and for all her multitude, shall they lament with it, saith the Lord Eternal.

17 Na, i te tekau ma rua o nga tau, i te tekau ma rima o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

And it came to pass in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

18 E te tama a te tangata, aue ki te mano tini o Ihipa, maka iho ratou, a ia, me nga tamahine a nga iwi nunui, ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua, ratou ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.

Son of man, moan for the multitude of Egypt, and say that it shall go down, yea, she, and the daughters of powerful nations, unto the land of the nether world, with those that go down to the pit.

19 He ataahua rawa koe i a wai? heke iho, takoto tahi koutou ko te hunga kokotikore.

Whom dost thou surpass in loveliness? go down [then], and be thou laid with the [other] uncircumcised.

20 Ka hinga ratou ki waenga i te hunga i patua ki te hoari: kua tukua atu ia ki te hoari: toia atu me ona mano tini katoa.

In the midst of those that are slain by the sword shall they fall: to the sword is she given up; drag her away and all her multitudes.

21 Ka korero mai nga tangata kaha o nga marohirohi ki a ia i roto i te reinga, ratou ko ona kaiawhina: kua heke ratou ki raro, kei te takoto ratou, te korikori, ara nga kokotikore, he mea patu ki te hoari. (Sheol h7585)

Then will speak of him the strongest among the mighty out of the midst of the nether world with those that once helped him, They are gone down, there lie the uncircumcised, —slain by the sword. (Sheol h7585)

22 Kei reira ano a Ahuru ratou ko tona hui katoa: ko ona urupa, kei tetahi taha ona, kei tetahi taha; he mea patu katoa, kua hinga i te hoari.

There is Asshur and all his assemblage; round about him are his graves; all of them the slain that are fallen by the sword;

23 Ko ona urupa, he mea mahi ki nga pito rawa o te rua; ko tona ropu ano kei tetahi taha o tona urupa, kei tetahi taha; he mea patu katoa ratou, kua hinga i te hoari, te hunga i puta ai te wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora.

Whose graves are placed in the lowest depth of the pit, and his assemblage is round about his grave; all of them are slain, fallen by the sword, who once spread terror in the land of the living.

24 Kei reira a Erama, ratou ko ona mano tini i tetahi taha o tona urupa, i tetahi taha; ko ratou katoa he mea patu, kua hinga i te hoari, he hunga kua heke kokotikore atu ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua, he hunga i mea i to ratou wehi kia puta ki te whenua o te hunga ora; heoi kei te mau te whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua.

There is 'Elam and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them the slain, that are fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the land of the nether world, who once spread their terror in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with those that go down to the pit.

25 Kua hanga te takotoranga mona ki roto ki te hunga i patua, mo ratou ano ko ona mano tini katoa: ko ona urupa kei tetahi taha ona, kei tetahi taha; he kokotikore ratou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari: i puta hoki to ratou wehi ki te whenua o te hu nga ora, heoi kua mau te whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua: kua tukua atu ia ki roto ki te hunga i patua.

In the midst of the slain have they set a couch for her with all her multitude; all round about are her graves; all of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was once spread in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with those that go down to the pit: in the midst of the slain was she placed.

26 Kei reira a Meheke, a Tupara, ratou ko ona mano tini katoa; ko ona urupa kei tetahi taha ona kei tetahi taha, he mea kokotikore ratou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari; i puta ano to ratou wehi i mua ki te whenua o te hunga ora.

There is Meshech, Thubal, and all her multitude; all round about her are her graves: all of them are the uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because they once spread their terror in the land of the living.

27 E kore ano ratou e takoto i roto i nga marohirohi o nga kokotikore kua hinga, kua heke ki te reinga me a ratou patu ano o te whawhai: i whakatakotoria ano e ratou a ratou hoari ki raro i o ratou mahunga, a kei te mau o ratou kino ki o ratou when ua; ko te hunga hoki tena i wehi ai nga marohirohi o te whenua o te ora. (Sheol h7585)

And those who are fallen of the uncircumcised shall not lie with the mighty, who are gone down to the nether world with their weapons of war, while men laid their swords under their heads, and the [instruments of] their iniquities were upon their bones; for the terror of the mighty was in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)

28 Otiia ka whatiia koe i roto i te hunga kokotikore, ka takoto tahi hoki koutou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari.

But thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with those that are slain by the sword.

29 Kei reira a Eroma, ona kingi, ona rangatira katoa i tukua nei i runga i to ratou marohirohi ki roto ki te hunga i werohia e te hoari: ka takoto tahi ratou ko nga kokotikore, ratou ano ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.

There are Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who are laid despite their prowess by those that are slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with those that go down to the pit.

30 Kei reira nga ariki o te raki, ratou katoa, me nga Haironi katoa i heke nei i roto i te hunga i patua; whakama iho ratou i te wehi i tupu mai i to ratou marohirohi, a takoto kokotikore ana ratou i roto i te hunga i patua ki te hoari, me te mau t e whakama o ratou, o te hunga ano e heke ana ki te rua.

There are the chieftains of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who are gone down with the slain: despite the terror they excited through their prowess are they made ashamed; and they lie uncircumcised with those that are slain by the sword, and bear their confusion with those that go down to the pit.

31 E kite a Parao i a ratou, a ka whai whakamarietanga ki ana mano tini katoa i patua ki te hoari, a Parao ratou ko tana ope katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

These shall Pharaoh see, and he shall be comforted over all his multitude: slain by the sword are Pharaoh and all his army, saith the Lord Eternal.

32 No te mea kua tukua e ahau tona wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora: a ka whakatakotoria ia ki roto ki te hunga kokotikore, ratou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari, a Parao ratou ko ana mano tini, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

For I spread my terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with those that are slain by the sword, —yea, Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord Eternal.
