1 M uri iho ka kawea ahau e ia ki te kuwaha, ara ki te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.

Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east.

2 N a, ko te kororia o te Atua o Iharaira e puta mai ana, i te ara ki te rawhiti; ko tona reo rite tonu ki te haruru o nga wai maha: marama tonu te whenua i tona kororia.

And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.

3 K o tona rite kei te ahua o taku kite i kite ai, ki tera i kite ra ahau i ahau e haere ana ki te whakangaro i te pa; rite tonu hoki nga kite ki taku i kite ai ki te awa, ki Kepara: a takoto tapapa ana ahau.

And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.

4 N a kua tae te kororia o Ihowa ki roto ki te whare; i tika na te ara o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti.

And the glory of Jehovah came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.

5 N a ka hapainga ake ahau e te wairua, kawea ana e ia ki to roto marae. Na, kua ki te whare i te kororia o Ihowa.

And the Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.

6 I rongo ano ahau i tetahi e korero ana ki ahau i roto i te whare: me te tu ano tetahi tangata ki toku taha.

And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.

7 N a ka mea ia ki ahau; E te tama a te tangata, Ko te wahi tenei i toku torona, ko te wahi ano i nga kapu o oku waewae, ko te wahi e noho nei ahau i waenganui i nga tama a Iharaira a ake ake; e kore ano toku ingoa tapu e whakapokea a muri nei e te whare o Iharaira, e ratou, e o ratou kingi, ki a ratou moepuku, ki nga tinana ranei o o ratou kingi i o ratou wahi tiketike;

And he said unto me, Son of man, this is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever. And the house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places;

8 I ta ratou whakanohoanga i to ratou paepae ki te taha o toku paepae, i to ratou pou tatau i te taha o toku pou tatau, a ko te taiepa anake hei wehe i ahau i a ratou; i whakapokea e ratou toku ingoa tapu ki a ratou mea whakarihariha i mahia nei e ratou; no reira pau ake ratou i ahau, i ahau e riri ana.

in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their door-post beside my door-post, and there was but the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger.

9 N a me wehe atu e ratou o ratou moepuku me nga tinana o o ratou kingi, kia matara atu i ahau, a ka noho ahau ki waenganui i a ratou a ake ake.

Now let them put away their whoredom, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

10 K o koe, e te tama a te tangata whakakitea e koe te whare ki te whare o Iharaira, kia whakama ai ratou ki o ratou he; me whanganga hoki e ratou te tauira.

Thou, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

11 A , ki te whakama ratou ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou, whakakitea ki a ratou te ahua o te whare, tona whai hanga, ona putanga atu, ona tapokoranga ki roto, ona ahua katoa, ona ritenga katoa, me ona ahua katoa, me ona ture katoa, tuhituhia ano k i to ratou aroaro, kia mau ai i a ratou tona ahua katoa me ona ritenga katoa, kia mahia ai e ratou.

And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known unto them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the egresses thereof, and the entrances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.

12 K o te ture tenei o te whare; ko nga taha katoa i runga i te tihi o te maunga, tapu rawa a tawhio noa. Nana, ko te ture tenei o te whare.

This is the law of the house: upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.

13 K o nga roroa enei o te aata, ara ko nga whatianga: he whatianga me te whanui ringa kei roto i te whatianga; a raro he whatianga, ko te whanui he whatianga, ko te taha i te niao he whanganga ringa a tawhio noa: ko te kaupapa tenei o te aata.

And these are the measures of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a handbreadth): the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about a span; and this shall be the base of the altar.

14 N a, ko te turanga i runga i te whenua, haere ake ki to raro papa, e rua whatianga; ko te whanui kia kotahi whatianga; ko to te papa i raro tae noa ki te papa nui, e wha whatianga; ko te whanui, kotahi whatianga.

And from the bottom upon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.

15 N a, ko to runga aata, e wha whatianga; i te takuahi o te aata whakarunga kia wha nga haona.

And the upper altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar hearth and upward there shall be four horns.

16 K ia tekau ma rua whatianga te roa o te takuahi o te aata, kia tekau ma rua whatianga te whanui, he tapawha, e wha hoki nga taha.

And the altar hearth shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broad, square in the four sides thereof.

17 N a, ko te papa, kia tekau ma wha whatianga te roa, kia tekau ma wha ano te whanui o nga taha e wha: ko te niao i te taha hei te hawhe whatianga; ko te turanga, kia kotahi te whatianga a tawhio noa; kia anga ano te pikitanga ki te rawhiti.

And the ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad in the four sides thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit round about; and the steps thereof shall look toward the east.

18 I ki mai ano ia ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa, Ko nga tikanga tenei o te aata i te ra e hanga ai hei whakaekenga mo te tahunga tinana, hei tauhiuhi mo te toto.

And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt-offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.

19 M e hoatu e koe he puru, he kuao, hei whakahere hara ki nga tohunga, ki nga Riwaiti, ki nga uri o Haroko, e whakatata ana ki ahau minita ai, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

Thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who are near unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord Jehovah, a young bullock for a sin-offering.

20 M e tango ano e koe tetahi wahi o ona toto, ka pani ki ona haona e wha, ki nga koki e wha o te papa, ki te taha a tawhio noa: na ka purea taua aata e koe, ka meinga kia ma.

And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse it and make atonement for it.

21 M e tiki ano te puru, te whakahere hara, a mana e tahu ki te wahi o te whare i whakaritea i waho o te wahi tapu.

Thou shalt also take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.

22 N a i te rua o nga ra me whakahere he koati toa, he mea kohakore, hei whakahere hara, a ka purea te aata, ka peratia me ta ratou purenga ki te kau.

And on the second day thou shalt offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.

23 K a oti te pure e koe, me whakahere he kuao puru, he mea kohakore, me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, hei te mea kohakore.

When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

24 M e whakahere e koe ki te aroaro o Ihowa, mea maka ano e nga tohunga he tote ki runga, ka whakaeke ai hei tahunga tinana ki a Ihowa.

And thou shalt bring them near before Jehovah, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah.

25 E whitu nga ra e mahia ai e koe he hipi hei whakahere hara i tenei ra, i tenei ra; me mahi ano e ratou he kuao puru me tetahi hipi toa o te kahui, he mea kohakore.

Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin-offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.

26 E whitu nga ra e tahia ai e ratou te poke o te aata, e purea ai; ka pena ta ratou whakatapu i te aata.

Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it.

27 A ka poto enei ra, na i te waru o nga ra, i o muri iho ano, ka mahia e nga tohunga a koutou tahunga tinana ki runga ki te aata, me a koutou whakahere mo te pai: a ka manako ahau ki a koutou, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

And when they have accomplished the days, it shall be that upon the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt-offerings upon the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
