24 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i te iwa o nga tau, i te tekau o nga marama, i te tekau o nga ra o te marama, i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, tuhituhia te ingoa o tenei ra, o tenei ra kotahi rawa nei: ko te tino ra tenei i anga nui ai te kingi o Papurona ki Hiruharama.
3 Korerotia hoki tetahi kupu whakarite ki te whare whakakeke, mea atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Whakaekea te kohua, whakaekea, ringihia ano he wai ki roto.
4 Kohikohia ano ona wahi ki roto, nga wahi pai katoa, te huha, te peke; whakakiia ki nga wheua pai rawa.
5 Tikina te hipi pai rawa, me haupu nga wheua ki raro i a ia; kia nui te koropuputanga; ae ra, kohuatia ona wheua ki roto.
6 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Aue, te mate mo te pa toto, me te kohua he waikura nei tona, kihai nei tona waikura i tahia! whakaputaina ki waho tenei wahi ona, tenei wahi ona; kahore tetahi rota i tau ki runga i a ia.
7 No te mea kei roto i a ia ona toto, kua waiho e ia ki runga ki te kamaka; kihai i ringihia e ia ki te whenua, kia hipokina ai ki te puehu;
8 He mea kia puta ake ai te weriweri ki te rapu utu, kua waiho e ahau ona toto ki runga ki te kamaka, kei hipokina.
9 Na reira tenei kupu a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Aue, te mate mo te pa toto! maku ano e whakanui tona puranga wahie.
10 Purangatia te wahie, whakaungia te ahi, kia pai rawa te kohua i nga kiko; meatia marietia kia pupuru nga kai, kia wera hoki nga wheua.
11 Ka tu kau, whakaturia ki runga ki ona ngarahu, kia mahana ai, kia wera ai tona parahi, kia rewa ai tona poke i roto, kia poto ai te waikura.
12 Kua hoha ia i te mahi; otiia kihai tona waikura nui i puta atu i roto i a ia; kahore tona waikura i kore i te ahi.
13 He he kei roto i tou poke: na, mea noa ahau i a koe kia ma, a kihai koe i ma; mo reira e kore tou poke e whakamakia a muri ake nei, kia makona ra ano toku riri ki a koe.
14 Naku, na Ihowa te kupu: ka rite, ka mahia ano e ahau, e kore taku e taka, e kore ano ahau, e manawapa, e kore e ripeneta; ka rite ki ou ara, ka rite ki au mahi ta ratou whakawa mou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
16 E te tama a te tangata, ka tangohia mai e ahau i tou taha ta ou kanohi i hiahia ai, ka whakapangia ki te mate: kaua ano ia e uhungatia, kaua e tangihia, kaua ou roimata e puta.
17 E tangi, engari kia ngawari; kauaka he uhunga tupapaku, herea tou tupare ki runga ki a koe, kuhua ano ou hu ki ou waewae, kaua ano ou ngutu e araia, kaua ano e kainga te taro tangata.
18 Heoi i korero ahau ki te iwi i te ata; a i te ahiahi ka mate toku hoa wahine: na i te ata ka meatia e ahau te mea i whakahaua ki ahau.
19 Na ka mea te iwi ki ahau, E kore ianei e korerotia e koe ki a matou, he aha mo matou ena mea e meatia na e koe?
20 Ano ra ko ahau ki a ratou, I puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
21 Mea atu ki te whare o Iharaira, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Tenei ahau te whakapoke nei i toku wahi tapu, i ta koutou i whakaii ai, i ta koutou kanohi e hiahia nei, i te mea e manawapatia ana e to koutou wairua: na, ko a koutou tama, k o a koutou tamahine, i mahue nei ki a koutou, ka hinga i te hoari.
22 A ko ta koutou e mea ai ka rite ki taku i mea nei: e kore o koutou ngutu e araia, e kore ano koutou e kai i te taro tangata.
23 E mau ano o koutou tupare ki o koutou mahunga, o koutou hu ki o koutou waewae; e kore koutou e uhunga, e kore e tangi; engari ka memehia atu i runga i o koutou he, ka koingo ki tetahi, ki tetahi.
24 A hei tohu a Ehekiera ki a koutou: ka rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia ta koutou e mea ai: ka pa mai tenei, ka mohio koutou ko te Ariki ahau, ko Ihowa.
25 Na, ko koe, e te tama a te tangata, he teka ianei i te ra e tangohia atu ai e ahau to ratou kaha, to ratou koa whakakororia, ta o ratou kanohi e hiahia ai, ta o ratou ngakau e okaka tonu ai, a ratou tama, a ratou tamahine,
26 I taua ra ka haere mai te mea i mawhiti ki a koe kia rongo ai ou taringa?
27 I taua ra ka puaki tou mangai ki te tangata i mawhiti, a ka korero, kore ake ou wahangu; hei tohu hoki koe ki a ratou; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau
25 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki nga tama a Amona, ka poropiti i te he mo ratou.
3 Mea atu hoki ki nga tama a Amona, Whakarongo ki te kupu a te Ariki a Ihowa; Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, kua mea mai na koe, Ha! ki toku wahi tapu i te mea e whakapokea ana; ki te oneone ano o Iharaira i te mea ka ururuatia, ki te wh are ano o Hura i a ratou ka riro ki te whakarau:
4 Mo reira tenei ahau te hoatu nei i a koe hei kainga ki nga tamariki o te rawhiti, a ka whakaturia e ratou o ratou puni ki a koe, ka hanga ano o ratou kainga ki a koe: ka pau i a ratou au hua, ka inumia e ratou tau waiu.
5 Ka meinga ano e ahau a Rapa hei kainga kamera, me nga tama ano a Amona hei tapapatanga hipi: a ka mohio koutou ko Ihowa ahau.
6 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Na, kua papaki na ou ringa, kua takahi ou waewae, pau katoa tou ngakau ki te koa, he kino nou ki te whenua o Iharaira;
7 Mo reira, na, kua totoro atu toku ringa ki a koe, a kua tukua koe e ahau hei pahuatanga ma nga iwi; ka hatepea atu koe e ahau i roto i nga iwi, ka huna ano koe e ahau i roto i nga whenua: ka whakangaromia koe e ahau; a ka mohio koe ko Ihowa ahau.
8 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Kua mea nei a Moapa raua ko Heira, Nana, kua rite te whare o Hura ki nga iwi katoa;
9 Mo reira tenei ahau te mea nei kia takoto kau te taha o Moapa i nga pa, i ona pa i ona rohe, te kororia o te whenua, i Peteiehimoto, i Paarameono, i Kiriataima,
10 Tae noa ki nga tama o te rawhiti, kia haere ki te whawhai ki nga tama a Amona, a ka tukua ratou e ahau hei kainga tupu, e kore ai e maharatia nga tama a Amona i roto i nga iwi.
11 Ka mahia ano e ahau he whakawa ki a Moapa; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
12 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, kua mahia na e Eroma he he mo te whare o Hura, kua rapu utu, kua nui to ratou kino, kua rapu utu i a ratou;
13 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Ka totoro ano toku ringa ki a Eroma, ka hatepea atu nga tangata me nga kararehe o reira; ka meinga ano e ahau te ritenga atu o Temana hei ururua, ka hinga ano nga tangata, a tae atu ana ki Rerana, i te hoari.
14 Ka tukua atu ano e ahau taku rapu utu ki a Eroma, ma taku iwi, ma Iharaira e mahi; ka meatia ano e ratou i roto i a Eroma nga mea e rite ana ki toku riri, ki toku weriweri; a ka mohio ratou ki taku rapu utu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: He rapu utu nei te mahi a nga Pirihitini, he kino nei te ngakau i rapu utu ai ratou, he mea kia ngaro, he mauahara tuturu;
16 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana ka totoro toku ringa ki nga Pirihitini, a ka hatepea atu e ahau nga Keretimi, ka huna ano e ahau nga morehu o te tahatai.
17 He nui hoki nga rapunga utu e mahia e ahau ki a ratou, weriweri rawa nga whakatupehupehunga; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau, ina tukua e ahau taku rapu utu ki a ratou.
26 Na i te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, i te tahi o nga ra o te marama, i puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau; i mea,
2 E te tama a te tangata, kua mea na a Taira ki Hiruharama, Ha, kua pakaru ia, te kuwaha o nga iwi; kua anga mai ia ki ahau; ka whakakiia ahau, i a ia ka ururua nei:
3 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Taira, a ka meinga e ahau nga iwi maha kia eke ake ki a koe, kia pera ano me te moana e mea nei i ona ngaru kia eke ake.
4 A ka kore i a ratou nga taiepa o Taira, ka pakaru ano ona pourewa i a ratou; ka tahia atu ano e ahau tona puehu i runga i a ia, ka meinga ia kia rite ki te kamaka moremore.
5 Ka waiho ia hei horahanga kupenga i waenga moana: naku hoki te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa: ka waiho hoki ia hei pahuatanga ma nga iwi.
6 Na, ko ana tamahine i te mara, ka tukitukia e te hoari; a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.
7 No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Tenei te kawea atu nei e ahau i te raki ki Taira a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, kingi o nga kingi, me nga hoiho, me nga hariata, me nga kaieke hoiho, me te huihui, me te iwi nui.
8 Ka patua e ia ki te hoari au tamahine i te mara: ka hanga ano e ia he taumaihi hei tatau ki a koe, ka haupuria ake ano he pukepuke hei tatau ki a koe, ka ara ano i a ia te puapua ki a koe.
9 Ka whakaturia ano e ia nga mea whawhai ki ou taiepa, ka wahia ano e ia ou pourewa ki ana titaha.
10 I te tini o ana hoiho, ka taupokina koe e to ratou puehu; ka ngarue ou taiepa i te haruru o nga kaieke hoiho, o nga kata, o nga hariata, ina tomokia e ia ou kuwaha, ina pera ia me te hunga e tomo ana ki roto ki te pa kua pakaru.
11 Ka takatakahia ou ara katoa e nga paua o ana hoiho; ka tukitukia e ia tou iwi ki te hoari, ka riro iho ano nga pou o tou kaha ki te whenua.
12 Ka pahuatia e ratou ou taonga, a hei taonga parakete au mea hokohoko: ka wahia iho ou taiepa, ka pakaru ou whare e matenuitia ana e koe: ka maka ano e ratou ou kohatu, ou rakau, me tou puehu, ki te wai.
13 Ka mutu ano i ahau te ngahau o au waiata, e kore ano te tangi o au hapa e rangona a muri ake nei.
14 A ka meinga koe e ahau kia rite ki te kamaka moremore: ka waiho koe hei horahanga kupenga; e kore koe e hanga a muri ake nei: naku hoki, na Ihowa te kupu, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.
15 Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa ki a Taira, E kore ianei nga motu e wiri i te haruru o tou hinganga, ina aue te tangata i werohia, ina hinga te parekura i roto i a koe?
16 Ko reira hoki nga rangatira katoa o te moana heke iho ai i runga i o ratou torona; ko o ratou koroka whakarere rawa, ko o ratou kakahu whakairo unu rawa: ko te kakahu mo ratou ko te wiri; ka noho ki te whenua, hono tonu te wiri, ketekete tonu ki a koe.
17 A ka maranga ta ratou tangi mou, ka mea ratou ki a koe, Taukiri e, kua ngaro koe, e te pa o te hunga rere moana: e te pa ingoa nui i kaha nei i runga i te moana, a ia me ona tangata ano, e mea nei i to ratou wehi kia pa ki nga tangata katoa e ta kataka ana i reira!
18 Akuanei nga motu wiri ai i te ra e hinga ai koe; ina, ka ohorere nga motu o te moana i a koe ka riro.
19 No te mea ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; I te wa e meinga ai koe e ahau hei pa kua ururuatia, kia rite ki nga pa kahore e nohoia; i te wa e kawea atu ai e ahau te rire ki runga ki a koe, a ka taupokina koe e nga wai nunui;
20 Ko reira whakahokia iho ai koe e ahau ki raro, koutou ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua, ki nga tangata onamata, a ka meinga koe kia noho ki nga wahi o raro o te whenua, ki nga wahi mokemoke onamata, i roto i te hunga e heke ana ki te poka, kore iho koe e nohoia; a ka hoatu e ahau he kororia ki te whenua o te hunga ora;
21 Ka meinga koe e ahau hei wehi, a moti iho koe: ka rapua ano koe, a kore noa iho e kitea a ake ake, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Jerusalem as a Cooking Pot
24 In the ninth year, in the tenth month on the tenth day, the word of the Lord came to me:(A) 2 “Son of man, record(B) this date, this very date, because the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.(C) 3 Tell this rebellious people(D) a parable(E) and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Put on the cooking pot;(F) put it on
and pour water into it.
4 Put into it the pieces of meat,
all the choice pieces—the leg and the shoulder.
Fill it with the best of these bones;(G)
5 take the pick of the flock.(H)
Pile wood beneath it for the bones;
bring it to a boil
and cook the bones in it.(I)
6 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe(J) to the city of bloodshed,(K)
to the pot now encrusted,
whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
in whatever order(L) it comes.(M)
7 “‘For the blood she shed is in her midst:
She poured it on the bare rock;
she did not pour it on the ground,
where the dust would cover it.(N)
8 To stir up wrath and take revenge
I put her blood on the bare rock,
so that it would not be covered.
9 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!
I, too, will pile the wood high.
10 So heap on the wood
and kindle the fire.
Cook the meat well,
mixing in the spices;
and let the bones be charred.
11 Then set the empty pot on the coals
till it becomes hot and its copper glows,
so that its impurities may be melted
and its deposit burned away.(O)
12 It has frustrated all efforts;
its heavy deposit has not been removed,
not even by fire.
13 “‘Now your impurity is lewdness. Because I tried to cleanse you but you would not be cleansed(P) from your impurity, you will not be clean again until my wrath against you has subsided.(Q)
14 “‘I the Lord have spoken.(R) The time has come for me to act.(S) I will not hold back; I will not have pity,(T) nor will I relent.(U) You will be judged according to your conduct and your actions,(V) declares the Sovereign Lord.(W)’”
Ezekiel’s Wife Dies
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 “Son of man, with one blow(X) I am about to take away from you the delight of your eyes.(Y) Yet do not lament or weep or shed any tears.(Z) 17 Groan quietly;(AA) do not mourn for the dead. Keep your turban(AB) fastened and your sandals(AC) on your feet; do not cover your mustache and beard(AD) or eat the customary food of mourners.(AE)”
18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. The next morning I did as I had been commanded.(AF)
19 Then the people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things have to do with us?(AG) Why are you acting like this?”
20 So I said to them, “The word of the Lord came to me: 21 Say to the people of Israel, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to desecrate my sanctuary(AH)—the stronghold in which you take pride,(AI) the delight of your eyes,(AJ) the object of your affection. The sons and daughters(AK) you left behind will fall by the sword.(AL) 22 And you will do as I have done. You will not cover your mustache and beard(AM) or eat the customary food of mourners.(AN) 23 You will keep your turbans(AO) on your heads and your sandals(AP) on your feet. You will not mourn(AQ) or weep but will waste away(AR) because of[a] your sins and groan among yourselves.(AS) 24 Ezekiel(AT) will be a sign(AU) to you; you will do just as he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.’
25 “And you, son of man, on the day I take away their stronghold, their joy and glory, the delight of their eyes,(AV) their heart’s desire,(AW) and their sons and daughters(AX) as well— 26 on that day a fugitive will come to tell you(AY) the news. 27 At that time your mouth will be opened; you will speak with him and will no longer be silent.(AZ) So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the Lord.(BA)”
A Prophecy Against Ammon
25 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, set your face against(BB) the Ammonites(BC) and prophesy against them.(BD) 3 Say to them, ‘Hear the word of the Sovereign Lord. This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you said “Aha!(BE)” over my sanctuary when it was desecrated(BF) and over the land of Israel when it was laid waste and over the people of Judah when they went into exile,(BG) 4 therefore I am going to give you to the people of the East(BH) as a possession. They will set up their camps(BI) and pitch their tents among you; they will eat your fruit and drink your milk.(BJ) 5 I will turn Rabbah(BK) into a pasture for camels and Ammon into a resting place for sheep.(BL) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 6 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you have clapped your hands(BM) and stamped your feet, rejoicing with all the malice of your heart against the land of Israel,(BN) 7 therefore I will stretch out my hand(BO) against you and give you as plunder(BP) to the nations. I will wipe you out from among the nations and exterminate you from the countries. I will destroy(BQ) you, and you will know that I am the Lord.(BR)’”
A Prophecy Against Moab
8 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘Because Moab(BS) and Seir(BT) said, “Look, Judah has become like all the other nations,” 9 therefore I will expose the flank of Moab, beginning at its frontier towns—Beth Jeshimoth(BU), Baal Meon(BV) and Kiriathaim(BW)—the glory of that land. 10 I will give Moab along with the Ammonites to the people of the East as a possession, so that the Ammonites will not be remembered(BX) among the nations; 11 and I will inflict punishment on Moab. Then they will know that I am the Lord.’”(BY)
A Prophecy Against Edom
12 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘Because Edom(BZ) took revenge on Judah and became very guilty by doing so, 13 therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will stretch out my hand(CA) against Edom and kill both man and beast.(CB) I will lay it waste, and from Teman(CC) to Dedan(CD) they will fall by the sword.(CE) 14 I will take vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel, and they will deal with Edom in accordance with my anger(CF) and my wrath; they will know my vengeance, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”(CG)
A Prophecy Against Philistia
15 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘Because the Philistines(CH) acted in vengeance and took revenge with malice(CI) in their hearts, and with ancient hostility sought to destroy Judah, 16 therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to stretch out my hand against the Philistines,(CJ) and I will wipe out the Kerethites(CK) and destroy those remaining along the coast.(CL) 17 I will carry out great vengeance(CM) on them and punish(CN) them in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the Lord,(CO) when I take vengeance on them.(CP)’”
A Prophecy Against Tyre
26 In the eleventh month of the twelfth[b] year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:(CQ) 2 “Son of man, because Tyre(CR) has said of Jerusalem, ‘Aha!(CS) The gate to the nations is broken, and its doors have swung open to me; now that she lies in ruins I will prosper,’ 3 therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Tyre, and I will bring many nations against you, like the sea(CT) casting up its waves. 4 They will destroy(CU) the walls of Tyre(CV) and pull down her towers; I will scrape away her rubble and make her a bare rock. 5 Out in the sea(CW) she will become a place to spread fishnets,(CX) for I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord. She will become plunder(CY) for the nations,(CZ) 6 and her settlements on the mainland will be ravaged by the sword. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
7 “For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: From the north I am going to bring against Tyre Nebuchadnezzar[c](DA) king of Babylon, king of kings,(DB) with horses and chariots,(DC) with horsemen and a great army. 8 He will ravage your settlements on the mainland with the sword; he will set up siege works(DD) against you, build a ramp(DE) up to your walls and raise his shields against you. 9 He will direct the blows of his battering rams against your walls and demolish your towers with his weapons.(DF) 10 His horses will be so many that they will cover you with dust. Your walls will tremble at the noise of the warhorses, wagons and chariots(DG) when he enters your gates as men enter a city whose walls have been broken through. 11 The hooves(DH) of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword, and your strong pillars(DI) will fall to the ground.(DJ) 12 They will plunder your wealth and loot your merchandise; they will break down your walls and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, timber and rubble into the sea.(DK) 13 I will put an end(DL) to your noisy songs,(DM) and the music of your harps(DN) will be heard no more.(DO) 14 I will make you a bare rock, and you will become a place to spread fishnets. You will never be rebuilt,(DP) for I the Lord have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.
15 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says to Tyre: Will not the coastlands(DQ) tremble(DR) at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan(DS) and the slaughter takes place in you? 16 Then all the princes of the coast will step down from their thrones and lay aside their robes and take off their embroidered(DT) garments. Clothed(DU) with terror, they will sit on the ground,(DV) trembling(DW) every moment, appalled(DX) at you. 17 Then they will take up a lament(DY) concerning you and say to you:
“‘How you are destroyed, city of renown,
peopled by men of the sea!
You were a power on the seas,
you and your citizens;
you put your terror
on all who lived there.(DZ)
18 Now the coastlands tremble(EA)
on the day of your fall;
the islands in the sea
are terrified at your collapse.’(EB)
19 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: When I make you a desolate city, like cities no longer inhabited, and when I bring the ocean depths(EC) over you and its vast waters cover you,(ED) 20 then I will bring you down with those who go down to the pit,(EE) to the people of long ago. I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, and you will not return or take your place[d] in the land of the living.(EF) 21 I will bring you to a horrible end and you will be no more.(EG) You will be sought, but you will never again be found, declares the Sovereign Lord.”(EH)

2 Na, whakarerea atu nga mauahara katoa, nga hianga katoa, nga tinihanga, nga hae, me nga kupu ngautuara katoa,
2 Kia rite ki nga tamariki whanau hou, hiahiatia atu te waiu kore tinihanga o te kupu, ko te mea hoki ia e tupu ai koutou ki te ora tonu:
3 Ki te mea kua whakamatautau koutou he tikanga ngawari ta te Ariki.
4 Ko to koutou haerenga mai ki a ia ki te kohatu ora, i whakakahoretia nei e nga tangata, he mea whiriwhiri ia na te Atua, he mea utu nui;
5 Ka hanga hoki koutou, ano he kohatu ora hei whare, ara hei mea wairua, hei tohungatanga tapu, hei tapae atu i nga patunga tapu, ara i nga mea wairua, he mea e manakohia ana e te Atua i runga i a Ihu Karaiti.
6 Mo reira tera wahi o te karaipiture, Na, ka whakatakotoria e ahau ki Hiona te tino kamaka o te kokonga, he mea whiriwhiri, he mea utu nui, a, ko te tangata e whakapono ana ki a ia e kore e tukua kia whakama.
7 Ki a koutou e whakapono na he mea utu nui ia: ki te hunga whakaponokore ia, ko te kamaka i kapea e nga kaihanga, kua meinga tenei hei upoko mo te kokonga,
8 Hei kamaka tutukitanga waewae ia, hei toka whakahinga; ki te hunga e tutuki ana ki te kupu, ki te hunga whakaponokore: i whakaritea mai hoki ratou hei penei.
9 Ko koutou ia he iwi whiriwhiri, he tohungatanga kingi, he iwi tapu, he iwi kua riro pu mai ma te Atua; hei whakapuaki i nga pai o te kaikaranga i a koutou i roto i te pouri ki tona marama whakamiharo:
10 I mua ehara i te iwi, inaianei ia he iwi na te Atua: kihai nei i tohungia i mua, inaianei ia ka tohungia.
11 E oku hoa aroha, ko taku whakahau atu tenei, he hunga noho noa, he manene hoki koutou, kia mawehe i nga hiahia kikokiko e whawhai nei ki te wairua;
12 Kia pai ta koutou whakahaere i roto i nga tauiwi, mo ta ratou whakapae ki a koutou, he kaimahi koutou i te kino, na kia whakakororia ratou i te Atua a te ra o te tirohanga mai, ina kite i a koutou mahi pai.
13 Kia ngohengohe koutou ki nga tikanga katoa a te tangata, he whakaaro ki te Ariki: ahakoa ki te kingi, ki te mea nui rawa;
14 Ki nga kawana ranei, ki te hunga i tonoa mai e ia hei whiu i nga kaimahi i te kino, hei whakamoemiti ia mo te hunga e mahi ana i te pai.
15 Ko ta te Atua hoki tenei i pai ai, kia ai a koutou mahi pai hei puru mo nga mangai kuware o nga tangata whakaarokore:
16 He hunga ehara nei i te herehere, otiia e kore e waiho to koutou herekoretanga hei hipoki mo te mauahara, engari kia rite ki nga pononga a te Atua.
17 Whakahonoretia nga tangata katoa. Arohaina nga teina, nga tuakana. E wehi ki te Atua. Whakahonoretia te kingi.
18 E nga pononga, kia ngohengohe ki o koutou rangatira, kia nui te wehi; he teka ki te hunga pai, ki te hunga ngawari anake, ki te hunga whanoke ano hoki.
19 He mea whai whakapainga hoki tenei, ki te mea na te mahara ki te Atua ka whakamanawanui ai tetahi ki nga mea whakapouri, i a ia e whakamamaetia hetia ana.
20 He aha hoki te kororia, ki te mea ka whakamanawanui, i te mea kua hara koutou a ka motokia? tena ka whakamanawanui, i te mea ka mahi pai a ka whakamamaetia, he mea whai whakapainga tenei ki te Atua.
21 No te mea i karangatia koutou ki tenei: i whakamamaetia hoki a te Karaiti mo koutou, waiho iho ana e ia he tauria mo koutou, kia aru ai koutou i ona tapuwae:
22 Kihai nei ia i mea i te hara, kahore ano hoki i kitea te tinihanga i tona mangai:
23 Ka taunutia, kihai ia i taunu atu; ka whakamamaetia, kihai ia i whakatuma; engari i tuku i a ia ki te kaiwhakawa tika:
24 Nana ake i waha o tatou hara, na tona tinana ake, i runga i te rakau, kia whakatupapaku ai tatou ki te hara, kia ora ai ki te tika: na ona karawarawa i ora ai o koutou mate.
25 I rite hoki koutou ki te hipi kua kotiti ke; heoi kua hoki tenei koutou ki te Hepara, ki te Pihopa, o o koutou wairua.
1 Peter 2
New International Version
1 Peter 2
New International Version
2 Therefore, rid yourselves(A) of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander(B) of every kind. 2 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk,(C) so that by it you may grow up(D) in your salvation, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.(E)
The Living Stone and a Chosen People
4 As you come to him, the living Stone(F)—rejected by humans but chosen by God(G) and precious to him— 5 you also, like living stones, are being built(H) into a spiritual house[a](I) to be a holy priesthood,(J) offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.(K) 6 For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,(L)
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame.”[b](M)
7 Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe,(N)
8 and,
They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.(R)
9 But you are a chosen people,(S) a royal priesthood,(T) a holy nation,(U) God’s special possession,(V) that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.(W) 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God;(X) once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Living Godly Lives in a Pagan Society
11 Dear friends,(Y) I urge you, as foreigners and exiles,(Z) to abstain from sinful desires,(AA) which wage war against your soul.(AB) 12 Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds(AC) and glorify God(AD) on the day he visits us.
13 Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority:(AE) whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, 14 or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong(AF) and to commend those who do right.(AG) 15 For it is God’s will(AH) that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people.(AI) 16 Live as free people,(AJ) but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil;(AK) live as God’s slaves.(AL) 17 Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers,(AM) fear God, honor the emperor.(AN)
18 Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters,(AO) not only to those who are good and considerate,(AP) but also to those who are harsh. 19 For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God.(AQ) 20 But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.(AR) 21 To this(AS) you were called,(AT) because Christ suffered for you,(AU) leaving you an example,(AV) that you should follow in his steps.
23 When they hurled their insults at him,(AY) he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats.(AZ) Instead, he entrusted himself(BA) to him who judges justly.(BB) 24 “He himself bore our sins”(BC) in his body on the cross,(BD) so that we might die to sins(BE) and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”(BF) 25 For “you were like sheep going astray,”[f](BG) but now you have returned to the Shepherd(BH) and Overseer of your souls.(BI)
