1 I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

¶ And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

2 E te tama a te tangata, anga atu tou mata ki Koko, o te whenua o Makoko, ki te rangatira o Roho, o Meheke, o Tupara, ka poropiti atu he he mona;

Son of man, set thy face against Gog in the land of Magog, prince of the capital of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy over him,

3 M ea atu hoki, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Nana, hei hoariri tenei ahau mou, e Koko, e te rangatira o Roho, o Meheke, o Tupara:

and say, Thus hath the Lord GOD said: Behold, I come unto thee, O Gog, prince of the capital of Meshech and Tubal;

4 K a whakatahuritia ano koe e ahau, ka whakamaua he matau ki ou kauae, a ka whakaputaina koe ki waho, me tou ope katoa, nga hoiho, me nga kaieke hoiho, he mea whakakakahu ratou katoa ki nga kakahu o te whawhai, he ope nui me te puapua, me te whakan gungu rakau, a he hapai hoari ratou katoa.

and I will break thee and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

5 K o Pahia, ko Etiopia, ko Putu o ratou hoa: rite katoa ratou i te whakangungu rakau, i te potae whawhai:

Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them, all of them with shield and helmet:

6 A Komere, me ona ropu katoa; te whare o Tokarama, o nga pito rawa ki te raki, ratou ko ona ope katoa: ara ko nga iwi maha i tou taha.

Gomer and all his companies; the house of Togarmah that dwells to the sides of the north and all his companies and many peoples with thee.

7 K ia noho rite koe, ae ra, whakatikatika i a koe, i a koe me ou ropu katoa kua huihui nei ki a koe, a ko koe hei kaitiaki mo ratou.

Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.

8 K ia maha nga ra ka tirohia koe, i nga tau whakamutunga ka tae koe ki te whenua i whakahokia mai i te hoari, i kohikohia mai i roto i nga iwi maha, ki nga maunga o Iharaira kua ururua noa ake: heoi kua oti te whakaputa mai i roto i nga iwi, a ka n oho humarie ratou katoa.

After many days thou shalt be visited; at the end of years thou shalt come to the land broken by the sword, gathered out of many peoples, to the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste; but she is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.

9 A ka kake koe, ka haere mai koe me te paroro, a ka rite koe ki te kapua e taupoki ana i te whenua, a koe, me ou ropu katoa, koutou tahi ko nga iwi maha.

Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm; thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy companies and many peoples with thee.

10 K o te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Na, i taua ra ka puta ake he mea i tou ngakau, a ka whakaaroa e koe he whakaaro nanakia.

Thus hath the Lord GOD said: It shall also come to pass in that day, that words shall rise up in thy heart, and thou shalt conceive an evil thought:

11 A ka mea koe, Ka haere ahau ki te whenua i nga pa kore taiepa; ka tae ahau ki te hunga e ata noho ana, e noho wehikore ana, e noho ana ratou katoa kahore he taiepa, kahore he tutaki, kahore he keti:

and thou shalt say, I will go up against the land of unwalled villages; I will go against those that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,

12 K i te pahua i nga taonga, ki te tango mea parakete; tahuri tonu tou ringa ki nga wahi ururua kua nohoia, ki te iwi kua oti te kohikohi mai i roto i nga tauiwi, a kua whiwhi ki te kararehe, ki te taonga, e noho ana i waenganui o te whenua.

to take a spoil and to take a prey, to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited and upon the people that are gathered out of the Gentiles, who have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the navel of the land.

13 N a ka mea a Hepa, a Rerana, ratou ko nga kaihokohoko o Tarahihi, me nga kuao raiona katoa o reira ki a koe, Kua tae mai ranei koe ki te pahua taonga? kua whakaminea ranei e koe tau hui ki te tango i nga mea parakete? ki te mau atu i te hiriwa, i te koura, ki te tango i nga kararehe, i nga taonga, ki te pahua i nga taonga maha?

Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

14 M o reira, e te tama a te tangata, poropiti, mea atu ki a Koko, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, I te ra e noho humarie ai taku iwi, a Iharaira, e kore ianei e mohiotia e koe?

¶ Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog: Thus hath the Lord GOD said: In that time when my people of Israel shall dwell securely, shalt thou not know it?

15 A tera koe e haere mai i tou wahi i nga pito rawa ki te raki, koutou ko nga iwi maha, ko ratou katoa i runga i te hoiho, he hui nui, he ope nui.

And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many peoples with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

16 A ka whakaekea e koe taku iwi a Iharaira, me te mea he kapua e taupoki ana i te whenua; a i nga ra whakamutunga ka kawea koe e ahau ki te whawhai ki toku whenua, kia mohio ai nga tauiwi ki ahau, ina ka whakatapua ahau i runga i a koe, e Koko, i ta ratou tirohanga.

and thou shalt come up against my people of Israel as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be at the end of the days, and I will bring thee upon my land, that the Gentiles may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.

17 K o te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Ko koe ranei tera i korerotia ra e ahau, ara e aku pononga, e nga poropiti o Iharaira, i nga ra onamata, i poropititia hoki e ratou i aua ra, he maha nga tau, taku kawenga i a koe ki a ratou?

Thus hath the Lord GOD said: Art thou not he of whom I have spoken in days past by my slaves the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those times that I would have to bring thee upon them?

18 N a a taua ra, a te ra e haere mai ai a Koko ki te whenua o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, ka puta ake toku weriweri ki oku pongaihu.

And it shall come to pass in that time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, said the Lord GOD, that my fury shall rise up in my anger.

19 K ua korero hoki ahau i runga i toku hae, i runga i te ahi o toku riri, He pono i taua ra ka nui te ru ki te whenua o Iharaira;

For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath I have spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking upon the land of Israel,

20 A ka wiri nga ika o te moana ki toku aroaro, nga manu ano o te rangi, nga kirehe o te parae, nga mea ngokingoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua, me nga tangata katoa i runga i te mata o te whenua, ka turakina iho hoki nga maunga, ka h inga nga wahi poupou, ka hinga ano nga taiepa katoa ki te whenua.

so that the fishes of the sea and the fowls of the heaven and the beasts of the field and every serpent that walks by dragging itself upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake before my presence, and the mountains shall be ruined, and the stairs shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

21 A ka karangatia e ahau he hoari hei patu mona, puta noa i oku maunga katoa, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa: a ko te hoari a tena tangata, a tena tangata, ka anga atu ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa.

And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, said the Lord GOD: each man’s sword shall be against his brother.

22 A ko taku mea hei totohe ki a ia, he mate uruta, he toto; ka uaina iho ano e ahau he ua, he waipuke, he whatu nui, he ahi, he whanariki, ki a ia, ki ona ropu, ki nga iwi maha e whai ana i a ia.

And I will litigate against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him and upon his companies and upon the many peoples that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.

23 N a ka whakanui ahau i ahau, ka whakatapu ano ahau i ahau; a ka mohiotia ahau i te tirohanga a nga iwi maha, a ka mohio ratou ko Ihowa ahau.

And I will be magnified and sanctified, and I will be known in the eyes of many Gentiles, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
