1 A ka whakahokia ahau e ia ki te tatau o te whare; na, he wai e pupu mai ana i raro i te paepae o te whare whaka te rawhiti, e anga ana hoki te aronga o te whare ki te rawhiti; a i heke mai nga wai i raro i te taha ki matau o te whare, i te taha k i te tonga o te aata.

And he causeth me to turn back unto the opening of the house; and lo, water is coming forth from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the front of the house eastward, and the water is coming down from beneath, from the right side of the house, from the south of the altar.

2 K atahi ahau ka arahina e ia i te ara o te kuwaha ki te raki, a arahina awhiotia ana na te ara o waho ki to waho kuwaha, na te ara o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti: a ko nga wai e rere ana i te taha ki matau.

And he causeth me to go out the way of the gate northward, and causeth me to turn round the way without, unto the gate that without, the way that is looking eastward, and lo, water is coming forth from the right side.

3 N o te haerenga atu o te tangata, i tona ringa nei te aho, whaka te rawhiti, kotahi mano nga whatianga i whanganga e ia, a ka meinga ahau e ia kia tika na roto i nga wai; i nga ponapona te wai.

In the going out of the man eastward, and a line in his hand, then he measureth a thousand by the cubit, and he causeth me to pass over into water -- water to the ankles.

4 I whanganga ano he mano e ia, a meinga ana ahau e ia kia tika na roto i nga wai; i nga turi te wai. I whanganga ano e ia he mano, a meinga ana ahau e ia kia tika i waenga; i nga hope te wai.

And he measureth a thousand, and causeth me to pass over into water -- water to the knees. And he measureth a thousand, and causeth me to pass over -- water to the loins.

5 M uri iho i whanganga e ia he mano; na he awa kihai i taea te whiti; kua neke ake hoki nga wai e kauhoea, he awa e kore e whitingia.

And he measureth a thousand -- a stream that I am not able to pass over; for risen have the waters -- waters to swim in -- a stream that is not passed over.

6 N a ka mea ia ki ahau; Ka kite ranei koe i tenei e te tama a te tangata? Katahi ahau ka arahina e ia, ka whakahokia ki te pareparenga o te awa.

And he saith unto me, `Hast thou seen, son of man?' and he leadeth me, and bringeth me back unto the edge of the stream.

7 H oki rawa atu ahau, na i te pareparenga o te awa tona tini o te rakau i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.

In my turning back, then, lo, at the edge of the stream very many trees, on this side and on that side.

8 K atahi ia ka mea ki ahau, E puta atu ana enei wai ki te wahi ki te rawhiti, ka rere ano ki raro, ki te Arapa tae tonu atu ki te moana: ko te moana he rerenga atu mo nga wai i meinga kia puta mai, ka ai hei rongoa mo nga wai.

And he saith unto me, `These waters are going forth unto the east circuit, and have gone down unto the desert, and have entered the sea; unto the sea they are brought forth, and the waters have been healed.

9 N a, ko nga mea ora katoa e muimui ana, i nga wahi katoa e tae atu ai nga awa, ka ora: ka tini noa atu hoki nga ika, no te mea ka tae enei wai ki reira, a ka rongoatia nga wai o te moana, a ka ora nga mea katoa e tae atu ai te awa.

And it hath come to pass, every living creature that teemeth, whithersoever the streams come, doth live: and there hath been great abundance of fish, for these waters have come thither, and they are healed; and every thing whither the stream cometh hath lived.

10 N a ka tu nga kaihao ki tona taha; a ka waiho he wahi i Enekeri a tae noa ki Eneekeraima hei horahanga mo nga kupenga; a ko nga ika o aua wahi ka rite ki o ratou ahua, ka rite ki nga ika o te moana nui, te tini noa iho.

And it hath come to pass, fishers do stand by it, from En-Gedi even unto En-Eglaim; a spreading place of nets they are; according to their own kind is their fish, as the fish of the great sea, very many.

11 O tiia e kore e waimaori nga wahi oru o reira, me nga repo o reira; ka tukua atu ki te tote.

Its miry and its marshy places -- they are not healed; to salt they have been given up.

12 N a ka tupu ki te taha o te awa, ki tona pareparenga, ki tetahi taha, ki tetahi taha, nga rakau kai katoa; e kore nga rau e memenge, e kore ano nga hua e kore; ko ona hua, hou tonu i o ratou marama ano, no te mea i puta mai o ratou wai i te wahi tapu: na hei kai tona hua, hei rongoa tona rau.

And by the stream there cometh up on its edge, on this side and on that side, every fruit-tree whose leaf fadeth not, and not consumed is its fruit, according to its months it yieldeth first-fruits, because its waters from the sanctuary are coming forth; and its fruits hath been for food, and its leaf for medicine.

13 K o te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa: Hei konei te rohe, e wehewehe ai koutou i te whenua hei kainga tupu, he mea whakarite ki nga hapu kotahi tekau ma rua o Iharaira: kia rua nga wahi ma Hohepa.

`Thus said the Lord Jehovah: This the border whereby ye inherit the land, according to the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph portions.

14 K a riro hoki a reira i a koutou, ta tetahi, ta tetahi, rite tonu: he wahi hoki ia i ara ai toku ringa kia hoatu a reira ki o koutou matua: ina, ka taka mai ano tenei whenua ki a koutou hei kainga tupu.

And ye have inherited it, one as well as another, in that I have lifted up My hand to give it to your fathers; and this land hath fallen to you in inheritance.

15 K o te rohe tenei o te whenua; i te taha ki te raki, kei te moana nui, kei te ara ki Heterono, i te mea ka haere ki Terara;

`And this the border of the land at the north quarter; from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, at the coming in to Zedad:

16 K ei Hamata, kei Perota, kei Hipiraima i te takiwa o te rohe ki Ramahiku, o te rohe ki Hamata; kei Hatara Hatikono i te taha o te rohe ki Haurana.

Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, that between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazar-Hatticon, that at the coast of Havran.

17 N a, ko te rohe i te moana, kei Hataraenana, kei te rohe ki Ramahiku, me te taha ano ki te raki whaka te raki, kei te rohe ki Hamata. Ko te taha ki te raki hoki tenei.

And the border from the sea hath been Hazar-Enan, the border of Damascus, and Zaphon at the north, and the border of Hamath: and the north quarter.

18 K o te taha ki te rawhiti, i waenganui o Haurana, o Ramahiku, o Kireara, me te whenua o Iharaira, ko Horano; me whanganga mai i te rohe ki te raki tae noa ki te moana i te rawhiti. Ko te taha ki te rawhiti tenei.

`And the east quarter from between Havran, and Damascus, and Gilead, and the land of Israel, the Jordan; from the border over-against the eastern sea ye measure: and the east quarter.

19 N a, ko te taha ki te tonga whaka te tonga ka takoto atu i Tamara tae noa ki nga wai o Meripoto Karehe, ki te awa o Ihipa, ki te moana nui. Na ko te taha tenei ki te tonga whaka te tonga.

`And the south quarter southward from Tamar unto the waters of Meriboth-Kadesh, the stream unto the great sea: and the south quarter southward.

20 N a, ko te rohe ki te hauauru ko te moana nui, ka takoto atu i te rohe ki te tonga a tae noa ki te ritenga atu o Hamata. Ko te taha tenei ki te hauauru.

`And the west quarter the great sea, from the border till over-against the coming in to Hamath: this the west quarter.

21 N a me wehe tenei whenua mo koutou, he mea whakarite ki nga hapu o Iharaira.

`And ye have divided this land to you, according to the tribes of Israel;

22 I na, me wehe tenei whenua, hei kainga tupu mo koutou, mo nga tautangata e noho ana i roto i a koutou, e whanau tamariki i roto i a koutou; a kia rite ratou ki ta koutou, ki ta te tangata whenua i roto i a Iharaira; kia taka mai he wahi mo ratou i roto i a koutou, i roto i nga hapu o Iharaira.

and it hath come to pass, ye separate it for an inheritance to yourselves, and to the sojourners who are sojourning in your midst, who have begotten sons in your midst, and they have been to you as native, with the sons of Israel, with you they are separated for an inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.

23 N a, ko te hapu e noho ai te tautangata, me hoatu e koutou he wahi mona ki reira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

And it hath come to pass, in the tribe with which the sojourner sojourneth, there ye give his inheritance -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
