Ezekiel 29

I te tekau o nga tau, i te tekau o nga marama, i te tekau ma rua o nga ra o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa; poropititia he he mona, mo Ihipa katoa hoki.
Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
Korero, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Parao kingi o Ihipa, e te tarakona nui e takoto na i waenganui i ona awa; nana nei te kupu, Naku taku awa, naku ano i hanga hei mea maku.
Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
A ka maka e ahau he matau ki ou kauae, ka meinga ano e ahau nga ika o ou awa kia piri ki ou unahi; ka tangohia mai ano koe e ahau i waenganui o ou awa, me nga ika katoa o ou awa e piri ana ki ou unahi.
But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
Ka waiho ano koe e ahau, he mea kua maka atu ki te koraha, a koe me nga ika katoa o ou awa; ka hinga koe ki runga ki te mata o te parae; e kore koe e kohikohia, e kore e huihuia: kua tukua atu koe e ahau hei kai ma te kirehe o te whenua, ma te ma nu o te rangi.
And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
A ka mohio nga tangata katoa o Ihipa ko Ihowa ahau; he kakaho hoki ratou kua waiho nei hei tokotoko mo te whare o Iharaira.
And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
No te hopukanga atu a to ratou ringa i a koe, whati pu koe, haea ana e koe o ratou pokohiwi katoa: i to ratou okiokinga ki runga ki a koe, whati pu koe, wiri ana i a koe o ratou hope katoa.
When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tenei ahau te kawe nei i te hoari ki runga ki a koe, ka hatepea atu ano e ahau te tangata me te kararehe i roto i a koe.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
Ka ururuatia ano te whenua o Ihipa, ka tuheatia; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau: mona hoki i ki, Naku te awa, naku ano i hanga.
And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
Mo reira hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, mo ou awa, ka meinga ano e ahau te whenua o Ihipa kia ururua rawa, hei tuhea, i te taumaihi o Hewene tae noa atu ki te rohe o Etiopia.
Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
E kore tetahi waewae tangata e tika na reira, e kore ano te waewae kararehe e tika na reira, e wha tekau nga tau e kore ai a reira e nohoia.
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
Ka meinga ano e ahau te whenua o Ihipa kia tuheatia i waenganui o nga whenua tuhea, me ona pa i roto i nga pa kua urutuatia, e wha tekau nga tau e tuhea ai: ka marara ano i ahau nga Ihipiana ki roto ki nga iwi, ka titaria ki nga whenua.
And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, I te mutunga o nga tau e wha tekau ka huihuia mai e ahau nga Ihipiana i roto i nga iwi i whakamararatia atu ai ratou.
Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:
Ka whakahokia mai e ahau a Ihipa i te whakarau, ka whakahokia ratou ki te whenua o Patoro, ki te whenua i tupu mai ai ratou, a hei kingitanga iti ratou ki reira.
And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
Ko te iti rawa ia i roto i nga kingitanga, e kore ano e neke ake i muri nei ki runga ake i nga iwi: maku hoki ratou e whakaiti, e kore ai ratou e whakahaere tikanga i roto i nga iwi.
It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
E kore ano e waiho hei okiokinga mo te whare o Iharaira, hei whakamahara ki te he, i a ratou ka anga nei, ka whai i a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
Na, i te rua tekau ma whitu o nga tau, i te tuatahi 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 seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
E te tama a te tangata, he nui te mahi i whakamahia ai tana ope e Nepukareha kingi o Papurona ki Taira: pakira katoa nga matenga, pahore katoa nga pokohiwi: kahore hoki he utu i a ia, ratou ko tana ope mo Taira, mo te mahi i mahi ai ia ki reira.
Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:
Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, ka hoatu e ahau te whenua o Ihipa ki a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, a ka riro i a ia ona mano, ka pahuatia ona taonga; ka murua hoki ana mea, a ko tena hei utu ki tana ope.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Kua hoatu e ahau te whenua o Ihipa ki a ia hei utu mo tana mahi i mahi ai ia; ko ta ratou hoki i mahi ai, he mea maku, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord GOD.
A taua ra ka meinga e ahau he haona kia wana mo te whare o Iharaira, ka hoatu ano e ahau ki a koe he kuihitanga mo te mangai i waenganui i a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
