Hakaraia 5
1 Na ka maranga ake ano oku kanohi, a ka kite, na ko tetahi pukapuka e rere a manu ana.
And I turn back, and lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a flying roll.
2 Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Ko te aha tau e kite na? Ano ra ko ahau, He pukapuka e rere ana taku e kite nei; ko tona roa e rua tekau whatianga, ko tona whanui kotahi tekau whatianga.
And he saith unto me, 'What art thou seeing?' And I say, 'I am seeing a flying roll, its length twenty by the cubit, and its breadth ten by the cubit.'
3 Katahi ia ka mea mai ki ahau, Ko te kanga tenei ka puta atu nei ki te mata o te whenua katoa: ko nga tangata katoa hoki e tahae ana ka hatepea atu i tetahi taha, ka rite ki ta tenei; a ko nga tangata katoa e oati teka ana, ka hatepea atu i tera t aha, ka rite ki ta tenei.
And he saith unto me, 'This [is] the execration that is going forth over the face of all the land, for every one who is stealing, on the one side, according to it, hath been declared innocent, and every one who hath sworn, on the other side, according to it, hath been declared innocent.
4 Maku ano e mea kia puta atu, e ai ta Ihowa o nga mano, a ka uru ki te whare o te tahae, ki te whare hoki o te tangata i oatitia tekatia ai toku ingoa; a ka noho ki roto ki tona whare, a pau noa ona rakau me ona kohatu.
'I have brought it out — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts — and it hath come in unto the house of the thief, and unto the house of him who hath sworn in My name to a falsehood, and it hath remained in the midst of his house, and hath consumed it, both its wood and its stones.'
5 Katahi te anahera i korero ra ki ahau ka puta, a ka mea ki ahau, Tena ra, e ara ou kanohi, tirohia ko te aha tenei ka puta nei.
And the messenger who is speaking with me goeth forth, and saith unto me, 'Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see what [is] this that is coming forth?'
6 Ano ra ko ahau, He aha koia? A ka ki mai ia, Ko te epa tenei e puta nei. I ki mai ano ia, Ko to ratou ahua tenei i te whenua katoa:
And I say, 'What [is] it?' And he saith, 'This — the ephah that is coming forth.' And he saith, 'This [is] their aspect in all the land.
7 Na ko tetahi taranata mata kua oti te hapai ake: a he wahine tenei e noho nei i roto i te epa.
And lo, a cake of lead lifted up; and this [is] a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.'
8 Na ka ki ia, Ko te Kino tenei; na maka iho ana ia e ia ki roto ki te epa: a maka ana e ia te poro mata ki runga ki te ngutu o taua epa.
And he saith, 'This [is] the wicked woman.' And he casteth her unto the midst of the ephah, and casteth the weight of lead on its mouth.
9 Katahi ka maranga ake oku kanohi, ka kite, na ko nga wahine tokorua e puta mai ana, i roto hoki te hau i o raua parirau; ko o raua parirau hoki koia ano kei o te taka; a hapainga ake ana e raua te epa ki te takiwa o te whenua, o te rangi.
And I lift up mine eyes, and see, and lo, two women are coming forth, and wind in their wings; and they have wings like wings of the stork, and they lift up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.
10 Katahi ahau ka mea atu ki te anahera i korero ra ki ahau, E maua ana e enei te epa ki hea?
And I say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'Whither [are] they causing the ephah to go?'
11 A ka ki mai tera ki ahau, Hei hanga whare mona ki te whenua o Hinara: a ka pumau ki reira, ka whakaturia ki tona turanga.
And he saith unto me, 'To build to it a house in the land of Shinar.' And it hath been prepared and hath been placed there on its base.
